SEWER ASSESSMENT FIGURES.
-cemmittee Explains Action and Makes Recommendations.

There WAS some mighty interesting studying of the sewer assessment fg- ures com piled by a. special committee of the common council. with the as- sistance of competent engineers, when into the hands of property owners the figures were released and some affected were surprised at the amounts Wednesday afternoon.
 Provision has also been made for a hearing by the common council at which all persons interested in rela.- ton to the assessments appear and be heard.
 In their report to the common coun- ell as committee thereof Aldermen G. Aiken Hawkins, Dr. Omer Larue and John A. Dady among other interesting facts set forth the following:
 The committee find that the amount of money already expended on the sewers and necessary rights and ap- purtenanees is $104.23s.41. Under contracts for sewers the sum of balance of s2,7e5.53 was due November 10, 1911, but on account of pending legislation has not been paid. The sum of the above contracts iS $1o7, 337.61.
 Your committee has given much time and thought to the question of the most equitable method of dis tributing the cost of the sewers among the parties specifically benefited. The methods employed in other cities of the state have been carefully studied. These methods are of all kinds-from those that assess practically the whole cost on those specially benefited to those that place the burden wholly on the general taxpayer
 The portion assessed to those spec1-- fical1y benefited is distributed in many ways by different cities. In some cities 1t is divided in direct proportion to the lineal feet of land abutting on the sewers, regardless of the depth or shape of the land. There has been 8 decision of the Connecticut supreme court that this method is not lawful.
 Several cities apportion certain amount of each nneal foot abutting on the sewer and each square foot of land within a specified distance, such as 100 feet from the street where sewer has been laid.
 Your committee believes that it would be reasonable for those spect- ffcaily benefited to pay about three quarters Of the sum already paid by the city for the sswers and that due at specified dates. Your committee is of the opinion that such 1fneal foot of land abutting on the sewers should be assessed tan cents and each sewer should be 1Asessed nine mills
 In order to privide for various IT. regular cases your committee thinks the above rufe should be modified as foltcws:
 1. Each square foot of land beyond and within one hundred feet of tho

The opera has been criticised SO

PROSPECTS OF CLUBS
IN THE BIG LEAGUES

ting to put the Tigers in the winning
column 20 per cent of the time.
New York and Pittaburg are gener-
ally picked to fight it out for Ma
tional league honors. The Giants
appear to be fully as fast as last
year and If one or two of the new
pitchers show up as well in major
league as they have in practice,
Mathewson, Marquard and Tesreau
should be able TO take things easily
Shafer will probably play short and
he appears to be better than Fletcher
and Burns should strengthen the out
field. The catching staff Is sure to
be strong with Myers and Wilson as
first choices,
Pittsburgh looks to be one of the
strongest teams in the league as re-
CARDS batting. The outfield of Carey.
Hoffman and Wilson is the best IN the
league. and Miller. Butler. Wagner
and Bryne are an infeld that it would
be hard to beat. The pitching staff
is second only to New York, with
Hendrix, O'Toole, Camnitz, Adams
and Robinson as regulars, and in
Gibson, Simons and Kelly the team is
well fortified for catchers
Cincinnati A Contender.
Cincinnati looks TO he a strong con-
tender for first division place The
coming Of Manager Tinker is sure to
strengthen the weakest place on the
team, and If one good catcher can he
developed or purchased and pitch
er or two brought up to champion
ship form the team will show up
strongly. 1t should he fast in the
field and on the bases with some
good hitters. the only weak place
being in the battery positions. a
serious defect, it must be admitted.
Chicago st. Louis and Boston
must be regarded as most uncertain
quantities Each has a new man
ager. and there will probably be a
number Of radical changes in the
lineups as the season goes on. Tn
less Fyers can get more out Of the
Chicago players this year than Chance
could in 1912, It Is hard to see how
that team is going to finish as well
as 1t did in the last years race, as
Catcher Bresnahan is the only really
valuable acquisition to the team, and
