MUST PAY TAX.
Massachusetts Real Estate TRUSTS
Hit by Wickersham


Attorney General Wickersham has de-
cided that Massachusetts real estate
trusts" are subject to the corporation
tax, and must make their returns and
pay the tax Of l per cent of their net
income. The Massachusetts, real estate
trusts" it was explained, were first
created to get around certain statutes
limiting corporation holdings of real es-
tate
These trusts are not organized under
charters, but are formed by agreement
and through declarations of trust The
titfs to real estate acquired or controlled
is vested in one or more trustees, and
certificates are issued to parties inter
ested as are shares OF incorporated con-
Germs. These certificates are traded in
as are shares of stock. and trustees are
elected as are directors of corporations
A change of trustees does not affect
the. trust, and the organization is made
for profit. The Attorney General held
such trusts exercise all the functions OF
joint stock companies. and therefore are
subject to the tax.

Places, but First Want Hearing.
While no official announcement viii be
made until the next meeting of the board
Of education, several members of the
board last evening made 1t evident that
while they are willing 10 surrender their
positions at any time they will antagonize
the passage Of the Peters bin. and will
request that they be given a hearing be-
fore the District Committee before action
is taken
There are many citizens who approve
the action Of the Commissioners in re-
porting favorably on the measure, but
who regret that it should have been
forced TO the front at the present time.
The work accomplished by the present
board. they think. has entitled the mem
hers thereof 10 the unqualified gratitude
of the people of the city, and il is I'M
fortunate they are not likely TO have the
opportunity to carry to successful con-
clusion the work which they have so sue
cessfully inaugurated.
Capt James F. Oyster. the president
of the board, who was loath to express
his views Friday night. yesterday
voiced the feelings OF several of his
colleagues by saying:
Il am willing to surrender my place
on the board of education 10 my sue
cessor. appointed under the present
law. but not upon the basis suggested
in this bill
'The board will be gratihed to know
that the worst charge that can be made
against 1t is that it has asked for what
the children OF citizens need for school
houses and for teachers, If the board
has asked too much for education it is
1t is that our children can get along
without"

ductor that countless things would hap

All would have been we'll If her train
had not developed a fat wheel just this
side of Baltimore. The result was that
instead OF getting here al 10 o'clock it
crept into the station at 1850.
Half an hour before the hour set for
the ceremony the bridegroom was at ST
Matthews with license in his pocket. and
the witnesses. including Representative
Mudd's family and one or two Of Mr.
Fenner's friends, were on hand.
When an hour passed and there was no
sign from Mrs. Evans, Mr. Fenner called
a taxicab and started hunting for her.
He sped to Union Station, and after vast
Gals, he discovered the train had arrived,
but no one had seen the bride
Inquired at Hotels.
He Jumped in the taxi again and made
for the Willard. but Mrs. Evans hadn't
been there. Getting more anxious every
minute, he tried two other hotels without
success. and then started for the church.
only to find that Mrs. Evans had arrived
and started back to the station to hunt
for him.
Thoroughly discouraged, he dismissed
his taxi and tried to locate Mrs. Evans
by phone. He was having an excited
argument with central. when the miss
ing bride whirled UP to the church in an
auto.
There was considerable explaining 70
be done. but fifteen minutes later Mr..
and Mrs. Fenner walked out and started
