Senator Clark had the house planned
the court was told, so that every room
has a secret entrance in addition to the
patent one. From his own mines in Mon.

but where copper is used in other build
ings he had bronze placed in his own
structure.
Within the house, concealed from view,
is completely equipped garage. On one
part of the roof is a sun parlor and on
another part an observatory. One of the
rooms in the unique" house is so ar
ranged that 1t can be completely penned

The heating plant cost $4,000; the
plumbing $4,000; the bronze work on
the roof 100000; a single frieze Is val
ued at $4,000; mantel design 1900; un-
cut marble $4,000. The library contains
treasures Of the printing press and the
art gallery contains copies of the old
masters such as an art lover with an an
nual income of $4,000 600 can purchase.
The quarries of the world were
searched for the finest marble for use in
this mansion. The staircase, Of Istrian
marble, contains blended stone from al
most every known marble quarry. The

CLARK OBJECTS TO TAX
ON UNIQUE BUILDING
Former Senator Demands Reduction of Assessment
on Freak Structure in Fashionable Fifth Avenue.

Special TO The Washington Herald.
New York. May 27.-Is the mansion
which former Senator William A. Clark
caused to be built at the cost of mill
| lions. on the corner of Seventy-seventh
street and Fifth avenue. the only one OF
its kind in the world?
Here are the answers which were laid
! before Justice Lehman in the Supreme
Court to-day and upon which he is asked
TO sustain or reject the city's assessment
upon this stupendous pile of frozen
ragtime.'
The city-The Clark residence is unique
There is not palace in the world of
any king or emperor that can match 1t.
Therefore, it should be taxed for its
"uniqueness'' and not upon the basis Of
assessment of adjacent property.
Ex-senator Clark-My residence in
Fifth avenue should be taxed in the
same proportion as other property. 1t is
not in a class by itself. so far as assess
ment is concerned 1t may be unique.
but its uniqueness should not be made
the basis for taxation.
The certiorari proceedings to review
the assessment OF the city takers was
brought before Justice Lehman because
former Senator Clark maintains that the
assessors have put too high valuation
upon his property. 1t Is conceded by the
owner and the city that the plot of land.
200 by n feet on which the house stands.
is worth at least s1.0OO.000. The dispute
is over the value of the building
The city assessed the property. while in
course of construction, as follows: 1905,
s.. .OOo,O 900: 1909. 81, 600: 1870 s3,5oOOCo.
These assessments are protested by the
owner He declares that the actual value
OF the property is not over s2,10O,000. and
that the assessment should be not over
s., 5000
The city assessors contend that the
money which 1t would cost to replace
such a mansion should be made the basis
of taxation, and that the Clark residence
is an extraordinary structure and would,
il sold, be put upon the market upon the
basis OF its uniQueness. To justify this
contention the city produced in court
many of the skilled artisans and ex-
perts who worked for years upon the
unique material that went into the
mansion.
Chief among these experts was Austin
Company. He testified that men in his
charge worked for five years to produce
the unique" glass that adorns the bath
rooms of the Clark home. And Senator
Clark paid for it." he concluded

PEELED, with some reluctance, to give
Judgment against the defendant" said
Judge Hand in his decision. 1T is true, In
respect to the communication travel and
subsistence, the statute results In most
shabby reatment, because the government
required a discharged officer to find his
way home at his own charges. which is
hardly a generous thing for sovereign
Even as to that, ungenerous as the
result may be, 1t is a mistake to suppose
that the loss imposed was $4l2.5O. That
figure is reached upon the assumption of
a travel Of twenty miles per diem, or
some other archaism long since out Of
any relation with the facts.
The court may take judicial notice
that ii costs not more than one-tenth of
s4l250 to travel with the greatest COM
fort from South Carolina to New Jersey.
The actual loss to the defendant would
not have been great had the actual allow
ance been made.
1T IS, perhaps, hard on Capt Gilmore
that he should not be permitted to keep
a travel allowance. even though it be
out of proportion TO the actual expense
to which volunteer officers are entitled.
but so it is hard upon officers upon the
