CHECK FOR OLD TAXES.
Seth Low Pays to New York City $27,
600 He Might Have Avoided.

NEW YORK, December 1.-Ex-Mayor
Seth Low, having discovered a few days
ago that he had through error deducted for
the years 1901, 1902 and 1903 from the value
of personal estate liable to taxation the
amount Of a mortgage ON pro-. erty belong
Ing TO him. paid the taxes. which he con-
siders due 20 the lily far tho three years
with interest The total amounted to
$27, 1897. and check was handed to Con-
tIcller Metz by Edward NJ. Shepard. Mr..
Lows counsel
The controller said afteraard that Mr.
Low was not legally responsible for the
payment of the back taxes, but that he had
insisted upon IT, At the same time NJ.
Low draws attention to the inequtable
nature of the existing tax system. an opin-
ion that was agreed with by President Law
son Purdy Of the tax board. Yesterdays
incident may lead to another effort at the
coming session OF the legislature to reform
the methods of, assessments in this city.
So far as Is known in the tax department
there has never been precedent for the
action taken by Mr.. Low. The punctilous
regard for his public obligation. as Mr..
Shepard described 1t. was manifested in
many ways by Mr.. Low during his term as
mayor. He would never use a postage
stamp paid for by the city for private let
ter. and he made a memorandum of every
personal telephone call he made from the
city hall. and footing up the total at the
end OF every month he sent check for the
amount to the controller.
President Purdy of the board comment
ing on the incident said:
The facts in the case add another and
forceful illustration to the injustice and the
absurdity of attempting to tax intangible
property and of relying upon assessments
based upon the guesses of assessors. If. in
this case, Mr.. Low had promised to pay the
debt for which his property was liable, he
would have run no additional risk and could
lawfully have deducted q very large sum
from this taxable property, This indicates
one of the inherent vices of the system. A
man of large wealth can so invest his prop
erty as not to be liable for personal taxes.
He can also afford the best legal advice.
Men of comparatively small means, par
ticularly merchants, cannot easily
range their investments, and the amount at
stake does not justify professional counsel.
l hope this instance will do SO much to
call public attention to the bad law. that
Mr.. Low may feel repaid for the large sum
he feels compelled to pay the city.
