MAY TAX IT OUT
OF EXISTENCE.
President of Theodore Thomas Orchestra
Association Appeals t, Chicago
Tax Board of Review.

CHICAGO. Aug 20.-A letter received
yesterday by the Tax Board Of Review
from BRYAN Lathrop. president Of the
Theodore Thomas Orchestra Association,
in which he attempts to arouse in the
board members feelings for the welfare
of Chicago as a centre of the artistic and
musical. as well as for its Advancement
in a more material manner, was unani-
mously tabled until some future time,
when the board would be more at leisure.
President Lathrop states emphatically in
his letter chat the orchestra association
will probably fall into bankruptcy If pro-
posed assessments are enforced. The let
ter reads:
II have been informed that the assessors
have placed a valuation on the ground
and building of the Orchestral Association
of 81. 300 00I If this valuation is allowed
to stand it will probably bankrupt this
institution, which is perhaps. on the whole,
the finest thing in the possession Of Chi
cago.
ut seems not unreasonable to ask the
Board of Review to make the taxes as
light as possible to preserve to Chicago
what the world at large regards as its
choicest possession, and the strongest
proof that .h@ people of Chicago are in
terested + nething besides material
things az ley making"
