THREE THOUSAND SUITS TO BE BROUGHT
FOR ARREARAGES OF TAXES.

FOR ARREARACES OF IAAES.
Martin SAKE, Assistant Corporation Counsel in
charge of the Bureau for the Collection of Ar
rears of Personal Taxes. announced yesterday
that he would within the next week begin three
thousand suits against delinquent taxpayers.
These suits will include actions to recover about
the Metropolitan Street Railway Company and
the Manhattan Railway Company.
Mr. Saxe's bureau has discovered a peculiar
thing about the status of these tax arrears. He
finds that during the ncumbenCy of Controller
Coler in 1898 Mr.. Coler agreed to a stipulation
that no collections should he made against the
railroad companies until suit at law. following
certiorari proceedings, could be brought to a
conclusion. The railroad companies after secur-
ing this agreement with the Controllers office
showed a marked unwillingness to have the GER
tiorari proceedings tried. Under the statute If
action is begun within six years of the i'm
position OF the tax the railroad companies can
escape paying the tax merely by citing the
statute of limitation.
AS soon as Mr. SAKE discovered that the rail-
road companies were in way 10 evade paying
personal taxes he promptly began action
against them The arrearages for which suits
have just been begun are not connected in any
way with the special franchise tax.
The Ford Franchise law became operative I'm
the year 1900, and charged up
against the railroad companies in Mr. SaXe's
bureau after 1899.
Since January l. Mr.. Saxe's bureau has
collected about $4,000 against about
tiOn Counsel Rives estimated that with the
rears bureau properly managed the city would
collect 5000 900 year. Mr. SAKE said yesterday
that the bureau would reach that sum by July l.
