PROBLEM FOR STATE BOARD.

no m ere than that on other property.
Lawyer Corbin disputed this claim
and said some property had been
raised n per cent. and the railroad
property 106 per cent.
Lawyer Spencer asked for a reduo-
tion of the tax assessment upon the
personal property of the Raritan
Copper Works. Hu said they were
assessed for 800, 600 worth of personal
estate and that they did not think
they shonld pay for more than $25, 900.
He asked fer reduction chiefly be-
cause an assessment of $65, 900 has
been placed upon copper bullion at
the works. He claimed this was not
the property of the Copper Works and
could not therefore be assessed. j.
y. Mccoy was called as witness
and testified that they did not own
the ore but simply refined it for ship.

whom there are several.
There was some question in the
minds of the members of the State
Board as to whether they could assess
the ore or not and it was thought to
be good plan to make an assessment
and have tho matter taken to the
courts for decision thereon. 1t was
argued by them that the ore should be

.RARITAN YACHT CLUB PLANS
ERECTION OF $4,000 CLUB
HOUSE ON THEIR PROPERTY.
Enthusiastic Meeting was Held Last Night at Which
the Members Were Unanimous and Were
Determined to Advance the Club in Every
Possible Committee Appointed
OFFICERS, WERE ELECTED
N. W. Pierce Ir., Elected Commodore =
Club will Hold Smoker In the Club
Hous, May 80 Will be Opening Day
and Season will be tarted-Members
90 to Sewaren Sunday

The Raritan Yacht Club held one
of the most successful meetings in its
history last night. Officers were
elected, plans made for opening the
season, d ecoration Day, and COM
mittee appoin ted to get preliminary
sketches and ideas for q new club
house which it is hoped to build be-
fore this season is over.
The meeting was more largely at
tended than any meeting of the club
in long time. There was renewed
interest, much enthusiasm, and spirit
of progressiveness prevailed, which
means an awakening of yachting in
terosts in this city. The officers
elected for the ensuing year were:
Commodore, Nathaniel W. Pierce Jr.
vice commodore, Louis M. Rossi;
secretary, j. Logan ClevenRer
treasurer. Conrad f. Hall; trustees.
Garret v. Evans, Edward Acker and
G. q. Sibley. The regatta committee
is q. v. Evans, W. A. Belcher, DIR.
G.. W. Tyrrell, O. S. Dutton and E
A. Acker
At the close of business the new
commodore asked tor q discussion
among the members as to the future
welfare of the club. During the dis
cussion it was brought out that there
was, ut present, debt of about 5000
ON the club. 1t is the object to issue
bonds, to be sold to the members only,
to raise money to pay this debt. In
this manner the property will be clear
except what is held by the club
members. When these bonds are SUBJ
scrlbed it is the intention OF the club
to mortgage the property for probably
81, COO and erect new club house to
cost that amount. Whether or not the
club could raise 5000 was discussed
and several men. acquainted with
hort front valuations, declared that
land, without building, was worth
800 foot. The yacht club owns
thirty three feet with absolute riparian
rights and it was declared that $3, 900
could easily be borrowed, especially
as a $3, 900 building would be erected
on the site. The bonds to be taken
by the members will be second lien
against the property, the mortgage
taking first claim.
Last night over $3.50 worth of bonds
was subscribed by the members and
more promised to come in. later. The
commodore appointed @. +. Hall.
Louis Rossi ana @. Howard Smith q
committee to get sketches and ideas
for a new club house. The members
of the club were invited to go to
Sewaren Sunday to inspect the club
house there.
For the opening day, May 30, the
committee appointed was j. L..
Clevenger, w. a. Belcher and Q. w.
Barnokov. 1t was also decided to
have a smoker on the night of May
&C, and J. i. Stricken, O. O. Sibley
and DR.. Fl. M. Brace were named to
complete arrangements.

assessed somehow and that there was
some way of getting Mt it but just
how they were not decided. Assessor
Grownev stated that the ore had been
assessed for $65, 900.
In this connection the attention OF
the StateBoard was called to the fact
that the American Smelling and
Refining Company had lots of ore at
their plant, yet their personal assess
ment was but $50 600. Assessor
Growney explained this by stating
that lead ore and other materials at
this plant were in building known
as a United States Bond and Ware
house and that the assessors believed
this could not be assessed. The State
Board was not so sure fG to that and
these matters we're all laid over for
decision on Tuesday.
LAWYER James s. Wight asked for q
reduction of the assessment upon the
Standard Terra Gotta Works. Albert
Bollschweiler was called as witness
and told of the buildings on the
works. The assessment was fixed al
$40, 900. Attention was called to the
fact that but $1,000 was the assess
ment upon the New Jersey Terra Gotta
Works which. it was said, was equal
ly rs large.

Enforce the Law. Na9

Yesterday afternoon the Minister'S
Alliance, of this city, held a meeting
in the parlors of the Presbyterian
church, at which County Detective

The result of the meeting was re-
ported to Mayor Seaman, it is said,
and lie has issued an order to Chief

the Mayor was asked by a News RS
porter, this morning, il he had issued
the order to the chief, he said that IL

let him see the letter if one such was
issued. Chief Burke was seen and
he said that he had been notified TO
close all the stores on Sunday. but he
would not give out any particulars
as yet. When one of tho ministers
was asked about the meeting he said
that at tho present time he CO, / | not
say nothing.
Several years ago the police trisd
to close all of the stores in this city
and they had hard time of it. 1t Is
not known at this time whether the
police will notify the store-keepers
of the order or will make arrests as q
test case.
1t is said that if game of baseball
is played on the grounds at Keasbey,
this Sunday, and that an admission
fee is charged, some arrests will be

were seve raj last night. The reduc-
tions are asked for several reasons,
and when recommended by the super
intendent are granted by the board.
If there were meters in every house
