ONLY THIRTY-oNE REDUCTIONS.

l Made in Asscssn eMts by Eoard of Relief.
 From the report of the board of relief, issued yesterday, it appears that 53O property owners appealed from assess ments on 1,500 pieces of property and that of these thirty-one appeals were granted, entailing a reduction of $55, 900 ] on the grand list. No appeals from as- I sessments on centrally located property were granted. It is said that it has been called to the attention of the asses | sors and the board of relief that for several years centrally located and very | valuable properties have remained at about the same assessed valuation as that placed upon them years ago. while in newer sections of the city as soon as houses are built full valuations, com- mensurate with present real estate val ues, are put upon them and they are assessed at the top notch, while the more valuable centrally located prop erty has remained at the low figure at which it was assessed years ago. It is said that with this state of affairs in mind the assessors and board of relief have entered upon the policy of raising the assessments on central property and for this reason did not grant appeals from assessments on that property. The reductions in assessments made by the board of relief are as follows:
