After breaking away from control of

garden of Paul Rissoto and played
havoc. 1t trampled upon glass frames

SEEKS TO RECOVER TAXES
PAID FOR BOND REDEMPTION
Assignee of Hundreds OF Claimants
Brings Suits for Thousands
Against City.

A. j.. Rich the weIl-known real
estate man, as assignee of some hun
dreds of claimants. filed suit yesterday
against the city and county to recover
S11,501 80 paid as taxes under pro-
test into the fund for the payment Of
the interest and to provide for the re-
demption of the $7,771, 900 in bonds
for public improvements.
1t Is the contention of the plaintiff
that the taxes were illegally collected.
notwithstanding the fact that they
were provided for in the tax levy, as
no provision for the collection of the
same had been made in the budget of
the Board of Supervisors for the last
fiscal year. If Rich's contention is
sustained it will mean that the final
redemption OF the bonds will be de-
layed one year.
