Tampa.-The Tampa Waterworks
company, through its president, Stu.
art Wood, of Philadelphia, Pa, has
made the city an offer to sell the hold
ings of the company to the city fol
$1,000,000.
This is considerably in excess Of
the appraisal made by Engineer W..
D. Marks Of New York, who made
an appraisal of the plant of the com,
pany a short time ago for the city.
The Tampa Waterworks company
is assessed on the books of the city
tax collector at $4,000 for its en-.
tire holdings, which includes all per
sonal property and real estate.
In this assessment is included an
item of $3.50 assessed against Stu,

The plant of the company is includ.
ed at 100000, while in the real es
tate is included $l0,650 under the IT,

Figuring this as an assessment on
two-thirds of its value, the holdings
of the company would amount to $3.50,

FLORIDA NEWS NOTES.

fernando county has called for a
good roads bond issue of one hundred
thousand dollars.
The sale of the 1850 acres of phos-
phate lands for $250,0OO is the sec.
ond big sale to be made in Polk coun.
ty recently, and a week previous to
the sale mentioned $4,000 was paid
by the same company for phosphate
lands there. An interesting point is
that the operation of another plant
will not iniure the business Of those
already running as the demand for
the product is practically limitless.
Material has been placed on the
ground for the erection of the new
depot for the Seaboard Air Line at
Barlow and construction work has
begun.
