He Is Not to Blame.
To TIMES reporter Engineer Shields
made the following admission:
The plans and estimates on the

as the sewer system, sludge beds and
settling tanks are concerned the es-
innate is reasonable and should be
met. 1 am responsible for them. Fur
ther than that 1 am not prepared to
say"
Offers His Explanation.
Shields allowed the inference that
a municipal lighting plant is planned
to go uncontradicted but offered the
following explanation of the situa-
ton. Sufficient power is to be pro-
vided to operate another pumping
station out north and one at Gibson

Further than that he would not say

made in the estimate it Will be that
portion of the estimate that was con-
ceived by the city engineer. The total

TAXES HAVE BEEN INCREASED.

Persons paying their state taxes finG
that their rate has been increased two
mills over last year, and instead of
One-mill levee tax they are now made
to pay three mills. In fact, instead of
the old five mills state and one mill le-
wee tax of a few years since, the pro-
perty owners of Orleans parish this
year find themselves taxed ca mills
state taxes and 3 mills levee taxes,
making a total of 81 mills. Recent
legislative enaCtments, with COnStitu-
tiOnal amendments, gave l mill for
Confederate veterans and One-quarter
mill for good roads, bringing the state
levy up TO Ga mills, or a total of 1925
on the thousand, instead of $645 for
1912.
Many persons calling at the office of
Tax Collector John Fitzpatrick, in the
new Courthouse building, fail to bring
the requisite amount because of the
heavy increases, and have to return
home for the balance. AS a rule they
are severe in their condemnation OF
the increased taxes.
After Dec. 81 taxes for 1913 will be-
come delinquent and subject to a pens
