Albany, Jan. 8.-The Court Of Appeals to-

cbise taxes 10 be paid by the New York
Central Railroad Company on the s3o,OG00ol
OF new stock issued in January, 1897.
Assessment OF the stock by Controller

not paid the full per cent dividend on the

STRIKE LAID TO TAMMANY
Labor Leader Says City Ferry
Employees Quit for Politicians.
TOMKINS SCORES WORKERS
Commissioner Calls Attention TO
Disloyalty--Engineers Don't
Want Public Hearing.

Commissioner Calvin Tomkins OF the De-
partment OF Docks and Ferries yesterday
scored the stokers and others employed on
the municipal ferries for going on strike
last Friday. He criticised their action in
leaving their places without making any
demands on his department or giving notice
OF their intention TO stop WORK. He de-
clared them disloyal and utterly without
regard for the interests of the public at a
conference with committee OF the ferry
employees yesterday afternoon at his office
on Pier 4.
When the strikers went back to work II
was agreed that conference would be
held to hear what the strikers had 10 say
through their representatives. Mr. Tom
kns made Il clear that, in case OF another
strike. none Of the strikers could ever hope
70 get back Timothy Healey, president OF
the International Brotherhood OF Stationary
Firemen, said he was against the strike
from the first and had reason 10 believe II
was instizated By Tammany politicians for
purposes Of their own, one Of which he be-
leved was 10 discredit municipal owner
shin In view Of future subways.
Deputy Commissioner Cresson and Cap
tain Sears, who is in charge of the munich
pal ferry service were at the conference
with the commissioner. Several OF the men,
including oilers. fremen, stokers and water
tenders. who struck on Friday, made state
rrents. The gist Of their complaints seemed
10 be that with four instead OF five hre-
men on each boat they were likely to get
into trouble II certain emergencies occurred
and they would have too much TO do.
CAPTAIN Sears said no system could be
devised which would prevent unforeseen
emergencies occurring some time. one
mans chief complaint appeared 10 be the
carfare he had 70 pay when ne was trans
ferred from one part a the waterfront
10 another. he admitted that he had never
appIied 10 the department 70 have sucn
money refunded by the department. The
conference will be continued tomorrow.
In the course of a statement 10 the meh
Commissioner Tomkins declared that the
strikers had acted unfairly both to the
public and the department IN going on
-trike without warning. The othcials ol
the department were put into position IN
the strike by which they were liable to be
blamed by the public for the diSloyalty
