STEEL COMPANY APPEALS
Claims That It Cannot Be Assessed.
Appeals on Lackawanna Assess
ment to Be Heard Today.

Colonel c. G. Mates, of the Lacka-
wanna Iron and Steel company, ap-
peared before the board Of city asses
sors yesterday afternoon and asked
that the assessment against the shops
and mills of the company, amounting
to considerably over 100000 be strick-
en- off the books.
He claimed that no more work was
being done at the mills and that the
| work of tearing some of the buildings
down preparatory to moving the plant
! to Buffalo. had been already COM
! menced. The assessors contended
. that when the assessment was made
| the mills were in active operation, and
! decided to carefully cons,ier the mat
| ter before arriving at any definite con-
ciusion.
Another interesting question will
come up today when representatives
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company will appear before
| the board and ask to have assessments
upon the various car shops of the
company, amounting to over $176,000
stricken off.
The company officials bold that all
but two of the buildings used as car
SHOPS are uSeu SIiIlply loI lnc\ repair
of cars and not for the construction
! of entirely new rolling stock and that
they are therefore under the law eX-
empt from taxation. The question OF
law on this point seems to be pretty
thoroughly settled. Opinions are on
file in the city clerks Office from eX
City Solicitors Vosburg and Mckinley,
setting forth that shops used for re-
pair work are exempt, and the asses
sors themselves have an opinion from
City Solicitor Watron, giving the same
ruling.
1t would appear then that the uues-
tion as to whether the shops should
be assessed, revolves merely around a
question of fact, the question of law
being practically settled. 1t is proba-
BILE, if the company officials swear to
affidavits setting forth that the shops
are used solely for repair purposes,
that the assessment will be taken
from the books.

IL may be that it will be necessary to
bring a derrick. crowbar and set of
jackscrews to the aid of the Cannon
"ripper' before that very humane
measure shall have accomplished It's
purpose.
AS has been suspected for some time,
1t is now quite certain that Cannon not
only is not anxious to leave the county
Jail. but can be expected to oppose any
efforts that are made to bring about
his release.
Thinking to be real enterprlsing. a
Tribune reporter yesterday set out to
have Cannon given his freedom. Judges
Edwards and Kelly were interviewed,
and when they declared that IL was
to be made to bring about the release
Of Cannon, the reporter proceeded to
consult a number OF attorneys as to the
most direct method Of procedure.
All agreed that habeas corpus pro-
ceedings were the appropriate thing.
Attorney T. p. Duffy was engaged to
prepare a petition in habeas corpus,
and forthwith to the Jail hastened the
reporter to secure Gannon's signature.
Would Cannon sign? BY no means.
Not a bit of it.
WILL SIGN NOTHING.
I'll sign nothing" he quoth. as de-
terminedly as when he refused to obey
the courts order to sign the deed. and
thereby put himself behind prison bars
for contempt.
Don't you want TO get out?" the re-
porter asked in some surprise.
veil 10 ND,,
mainder---" and here Cannon sud-
denly broke off. "Jll have nothing to
say" he added.
The reporter explained to him the
trouble that had been entailed in pre-
pairing and passing the bill that the
governor had just signed. and how no
other individual, possibly, had ever
been so considerably treated by the
courts and the legislature, but it was
OF no interest to Cannon.
whatever is to be done, they'll have
to do it," was the most he would VEN
ture.
Judging from Gannon's words and
manner. it is not rash to say that if he
comes out of the county Jail. it will be
when he is put out.
AS the case to which the commit
ment related was one in equity, the
judges can deal with it In recess. This
circumstance will be taken advantage
OF to effect Gannon's discharge, with
out waiting for the reconvening of
court on May 6.
WHAT BILL PROVIDES.
The Cannon bill provides that the
court. in such cases as his, can desig-
nate some one else to sign the convey
ance. A motion to have the court di-
rect the sheriff to perform this office
will likely be made today. Once it is
done. Cannon is no longer in contempt,
and consequently no longer under COM
mitment. Having no further call on
the hospitality of the county, Warden
Simpson will be forced to compel Gam
non to quit the premises.
