HELD LIABLE FOR
TAXES ON LEASES
Suit at Los Angeles; Will Appeal
to Higher Court.
Special TO The Tribune.

LOS ANGELES. July lc.-Judse Craig
today held that the Salt Lake railroad
cannot escape liability for taxes on leases
held by the corporation on state lands
merely because the sovereign is The
owner OF the property,
The question is one of the most novel
which has found its way into court in
many months. The attorneys were un-
able TO find any cases in which the
proposition had been passed Oh. The
railroad rents tidelands from the state
for n right of way at the port OF Los
Angeles. For two years the county has
assessed the lease, and last year the city
made IL levy. Under protest the rail-
road paid, In due time it made claims
for the return OF the money in vain,
TWO suits were filed against the county
for the amounts collected for taxes. SINH
lar proceedings were begun To compel the
city TO refund.
The lawyers for the corporation ad
vanced the proposition that as the state
Is immune from taxation. no levy can
be made upon It's lessecs. The case will
20 to the supreme court.
