Corporation Counsel In
structs the Local Assessors
AS to the Manner of
Assessment.
THINKS PRESENT COURSE ILLEGAL
Advises Tax Board to Disre-
gard Act of 1899 and As
sess Under Old Law.

A question having arisen In the matter
of the assessment of trust companies o.
this city by the local assessors recently
arose. 1t seems that considerable doun'
has arisen as to the manner of the assess
ment and this was referred to Corporation
Counsel Allan L.. McDermott for an oDin'
ion. who has expressed a doubt IN inc
course pursued under the revision of the
act of 1899. This Mr.. McDermott CON
siders unconstitutional and thinks that the
Tax Board should follow the old law o.
assessing companies on the amount Of
their capital stock issued and outstand-
ing.
The opinion sent to the Tax Commits
sioners this morning by the Corporation
Counsel was as follows:-
In the matter of the assessment Of
taxes upon the New Jersey Title Guar
antee & Trust Company, the Gree4vlile
Banking & Trust Company, ana lne
Peoples Safe Deposit and Trust Com
pany, / have to advise you that these
taxes should be assessed under sec
tion % of an act concerning trust
companies (revision OF 1892, Whlcn
reads as folloWs:-
Every trust company Incorporates
under any law Of this state snail pc
taxed IN the taxing district Where 1ts
office is situated, upon the payment q
i'd capital stock issued and outstand-
ing. except that any real estate be-
longing to any such corporation snall
be taxed in the taxing district Wnefe
such real estate is situated, ana lAe
amount of assessment upon sucn real
estate may be deducted from Lhe
amount of any assessment made upon
the capital stock of the company, o.
herein provided for; the capital stock.
property and franchises or any such
corporation shall be exempt from tax
alton in this State, except as hereih-
above provided for
I am inclined to think that the pro-
visions of this act, selecting this class
of corporations to be assessed IN tne
manner described, are of doubtful
eonstitutionality. Entertaining SIM
liar opinion in the case of the act OIL
1899. providing for the taxation OF ma
tionaI bank stock I advise your Board
10 disregard the act and assess under !
the old law. If this course was not
pursued all holders of national bank
stock not residing in New Jersey,
would absolutely escape taxation IN
the case of the three trust companies
above named, the city will be gamer
by following the provisions of the act
of 1899 The total assessment against
those three companies is now S2Ul ,202,
while If they are assessed upon their
capttal stock issued, the assessments
will be increased to $3.50 Geo. making
an increase in the ratables of the city
of $14S, 500. Where the city will be
the gamer by resolving any question
in it's favor / consider 1t the duty OF
city officers TO give the city the ben
eft of all doubts, and therefore advise
you to- assess these companies upon
the amount of their capital stock is
sued and outstanding.
