ASSESSMENT STATISTICS.
VALUATION OF REAL AND PERSONAL
PROPERTY THROUGHOUT
THE STATE.

Albany Jan 19-Wiiam J. Morgan, State Con-
troler compiled statistics showing the assessed
valuation of real and personal property of the sew
era counties of the State returned to his office
by boards of supervisors the year 1S99 and has
issued table setting forth the same. This shows
that the total valuation of real and personal prop
erty is $5562.2O41 1873, as compared with $5.1S6 6s5
964 in 1885, increase of $685. 2S4 There has been
large increase in the value of real property and
a decrease in the value of personal property as
compared with the preceding year. The total value
of real property is 81 26O compared with
value of $4 1898 435 in 1885, increase of S S60 25
The total value of personal property is $74S424,9SS
compared with 766,617529 in 1898, decrease OF
s1S 192,591
Upon these statistics the State Board of Equa-
cation will equalze valuations for the fiscal year
beginning October l. 1900.
The Controller, in issuing the table, has been
compelled to use in the case of Erie, Schenectady,
Wayne and Westchester counties the figures of 1898
because the boards of supervisors of those counties
have been unable to certify the figures for 1893.
This is the experience yearly. and In order to pub
lish this table time the Controller uses the fig
of the year previous for these counties.

angels go out that our archansels may
come in.

own mother has not made all other
mothers venerable.

ing the words, decisions, mein, inven-
lions and actions of others.

for one sex which does not apply equal.

ference is only in circumstances.
