DECISIONS ON TAKING
RAILWAY FRANCHISES
A PEOPLES VICTORY
Establish a Sound Principle
BY Which to Fix "In-
tangible Values.

The city's contention in the matter Of
assessing the Intangible" franchise
values Of public service corporations
was sustained in Supreme Court ded-
sions handed down to-day by Justices
Mccall and Davis.
The decisions were in the case OF the
People. ex. rel. Adrian Fl. Joline and
Douglas Robinson. against the State
Board OF Tax Commissioners, and con-
cerned the payment OF taxes by the
Metropolitan Street Railway system on
what 10 known as the "spedal franchise
tax" as provided by tho Ford act. This
law provides for not only taxing street
railways and gas and electric light
companies for their tangible property.
but also for the intangible assets rep
resented by the franchise itself.
| The receivers Of the Metropolitan con-
tended that as they didn't have any net
rece!pts-the company Is Observation-Disclosures
franchise was withou. value. Justices
Davis and Mccall denied this. sustaining
the city's contention that the receivers
attempted to charge of too many OK
penses that should not be properly re-
garded as operating expenses"
Corporation Counsel Watson argued
that by deductinS the actual operating
expenses. including taxes. from the
gross receipts. the remainder would re-
present the net value of the Intangible
franchise. This contention 10 upheld by
both Justices.
Justice Davis concludes that tho
value Of the special franchise for 1911
was 332.303,45<.
Justice Mccall cuts the State
Boards franchise assessment for 1910
from 81. 900 to 81. 1ss. 7NO. bu,
ne too sustains the city's contention
as to the method of arriving at TIT
value of the franchise.
The two decisions, said Mr.. Watson
were great victory for the people
as they established a sound principle
upon which the intangible value o.
franchises OF public service corpora
tions could be determined in the fu
ture. Pending the settlement OF tn,
| special franchises the street railways
have not paid their taxes in full fol
the two years in dispute, but have
| paid something on account.
Corporation Counsel Watson was De.
| lighted over the city's victory in the
decisions.
! "If the decisions are sustained by ths
! higher courts. as I assume they will
be-" he said. 1T will mean that the city
will be about 10000 better off in tho
way of receipts for taxes from the
metropolitan system for the two years
1910 and 1911"

Miss Frances Stevens. a pretty little

OF the Stable Key to King Alfonso pro-
fessed a prodigious admiration for the
American girl. and Miss Stevens pro-
fessed an admiration for the Kings
horses. Naturally she was invited to
ride. One after another the horses were
brought out, and each one she bestrode
