TAX SALE TO BE HELD SHORTLY
IN BROOKLYN.

Bureau Calls for Sewer Assessments
In sixth Avenue Levied In 1880.
The tax sale Of real estate in The Bronx,
which is now being held in that borough, will
he followed at the beginning Of next year
by q similar sale In Brooklyn. According to
Edward A. Slattery, head Of the Bureau for
the Collection Of Assessments and Arrears,
the Brooklyn sale will probably take place
in January. 1t will cover all property in
arrears for taxes and assessments levied
before the consolidation OF the greater city.
The property will be sold outright, sub
ject to the tax laws which obtained in the
old city of Brooklyn. In the case Of realty
sold in accordance with the provisions OF the
Greater New York Charter the buyer OBJ
tains from the city merely a leasehold title.
In the forthcoming Brooklyn sale, however,
the purchaser will obtain a deed to the free
mold il within sixty days the owner does not
exercise his rights OF redemption.
Taxpayers in Manhattan and The Bronx
have been surprised and alarmed to read
a printed notice on their tax bills this fall
TO the effect that their property had been
sold for unpaid taxes and assessments.
Thousands Of tax bills have had this notice,
with the result that the Bureau for the
Collection OF Assessments and Arrears
mas been besieged by thrOngs Of property
owners who had no knowledge OF being in
debted to the city.
On inquiry they have been told that the
sales have in some instances taken place
as far back as 1879. The notice concerns
all HnrooI. 80 al naf oNn anld for IN rna
and assessments in the old city Of New
York prior to ls4O and Of the redemption
Of which the bureau has no record. In
the great majority OF instances these par
GELS were redeemed years g by private
sales without any record Of the redemption
having been submitted to b bureau.
Sue records exist in the Registers ONCE,
the books OF which consequently show a
clear chain Of title. On the strength Of
this showing millions OF dollarH' worth OF
10 which have been insured by title insur-
ance companies. These companies, as well
"a the present owners OF the realty, a
been greatly exercised by the unexplained
notices Of sale on the tax bills.
The notice. 1t appears, was issued by
the bureau with a view to Strengthening
out its records. The proof OF redemption
may DO furnished by submitting the original
papers or transcripts from the Registers
Office. The bureau 10 about to move into
new quarters In the Barclay Building at
Broadway and Duane street. It wishes to
store some hundreds OF old tai sale books,
and concluded that by calling for proofs OF
redemption most Of the books could be
closed and put away.
An incidental result Of searching through
the records OF the ONCE was the discovery
that the assessments for a eve built in
Sikh avenue in 1880 have never beer COL
lected. The present owners OF property
within the assessment area affected ave
therefore been notified that these forgotten
charges will now have 70 be paid.
