BANKERS GROAN
ABOUT TAXES
Object to Assessment of 100
Per Cent of Capital
Stock.

A serious problem is confronting the
county board of equalization in regard to
assessing banks for taxation. Heretofore
the scheme has been to assess each bank
20 per cent of its capital stock, surplus
and undivided profits. This year the as
sessment was made on the basis of
100 per cent valuation. To this the banks
are Directing strenuously and will file
their protest at next Mondays meeting
of the board in the county assessors Of
tice.
In the first place. at the last election
constitutional amendment was passed eX-
empting mortgages from taxation. A
large part of the capital of banks is IN
vested, IL is claimed, In this form of Sc
curitieS.
The banks also hold United States bonds
which they claim are exempt from To-
cal taxation by virtue of a recent rul-
ing of the supreme court of the United
States. The amount of bonds held here
is difficult to determine, although it will
PROBABLY be shown Monday.

May Be Bankrupted.

NJ. Clemenceau further warns the
mayors that the local treasures viii BE-
bankrupted by their refusal to pay
taxes; the cOmmunes will lose their
share of the taxes. and i'm the event OF
taxes not being collected the COVERT
ment will refuse to make the advances
necessary to meet the local expenses.
In some of the towns the outgoing
mayors and town councils are taking
the precaution to wall up the doors of
the town halls with the object of keep
ing ont any temporary administration
commissioners whom the projects
might appoint to carry on the local adj
ministration, and committees have been
appointed to influence individuals who
have not undertaken to pay taxes. Cen
eral Bailloud, in issuing orders to the
troops, added significantly:
Regiments must not even be permit
ted 10 enter the towns All drills and ex-
ercises must be carried out in the bar
racks"
The object OF the order is to keep the
troops from fraternizing with the wine
growers.

Heavy Deposits Escape.

In addition large number of state
bonds are held by the banks and these
cannot be taxed according to the con-
stitution.
On the other hand. from the viewpoint
of the county, the tax levied this year
is none too high. The local banks carry
deposits of about $50. 900, CO., which cannot
be reached by taxation, as there is no
means of ascertaining TO whom they be-
long. A great part of this is. loaned by
the banks 20 good advantage or invested
in valuable stocks and bonds. Under the
law, all stocks and bonds can be taxed,
but the banks escape by asserting that

investment purposes. 1t is contended in
some quarters that fair assessment
would be based on the selling value of
all the banks capital stock

ASSESSOR BRAND MAKES REPORT OF
ASSESSMENT FOR EAS Tern DISTRICT
.l'OLD CATHOLIC
CHURCH BURNED
A LONG SERIES OF
TROUBLES BETWEEN Rival
CONGREGATIONS.

WASHINGTON, Pa, July s.-The
aold Catholic" Church building at
canonsburg, in which the Rev. Father
Paul Urban and his congregation wor.
shipped, was destroyed by FIRE at an
early hour yesterday morning.
since Father Urban went to Can.
onsburg three years ago and sought
to found a church of the eold Cath.
ole" denomination, he has met with
nothing but opposition and trouble.
Father Urban is a Lithunian, and
among the several races of foreigners
Poles, slays and other natIonalitIes
-he formed a congregation of the Old
Catholic Church. Father Urban and
his people do not recognize the Pope
at Rome as their spiritual head, and
for that reason the Roman Catholic
adherents in Canonsburg. headed by
their priest, Father Tyszka, placed
every obstacle possible In the way Of
rather Urban.
When Father Urban sought to raise
money among his people for the erec-
ton Of the church building which was
destroyed by fire he was arrested on
information OF Father Tyszka, on a
charge Of obtaining money under false
pretense. Father Urban was acq1It-
ted Of the charge, and, in retaliation,
he brought suit in the Washington
county courts against Father Tyszka
claiming a big bill Of damages. He
won his suit, securing verdict against
Father Tyszka for 5000. The court
reduced the amount to $500 and as
sessed the costs against Father
Tyszka. The latter was unable to pay
up and had himself declared a bank
rupt.
A few days ago injunction proceed
ings were brought against Father Ur-
ban and his congregation to prevent
their using the church. The case is
still pending in the colrts. The cause
of the fire is unknown.
