LEGALITY Of This
sale IS attacked
Mrs. Adair Thinks Law Was
Not Followed in One
Instance
QUESTION BEFORE
COURT ON MONDAY

Much Importance is attached TO the
city tax case to be argued before the
judges of the County Court next Mon
day, as a decision against the city will
mean the loss Of thousands of dollars
Of delinquent city taxes and viii result
in some material changes being made in
the future in at least the time that
properties are advertised for sale to pay.
taxes.
The case is that OF the city against
Mrs. Julia A. Adair, who is represented
by her son, Robert .kdair. City Soiici-
tor Daniel o. Hastings will argue the
case for the city. Mr. Adair. it is un-
derstood, will contend that in the
method of advertising the property
which was sold for taxes, a provision
of the city charter was not adhered
to, and consequently the sale is not
legal, and he is opposing confirmation
on that ground
The facts in the case as far as could
be learned are as follows:
Several months ago judgment was en-
tered against Nathan Barsky, as owner
OF property on Lowering avenue between
Adams and jackson streets, for VI
Quent city taxes amounting to about
Sl49. Previous to the sale of the prop
erty for the taxes in January, a deed
of the property from Barsky TO Mrs
Julia a. Adsir, had been placed ON the
record. dated carly last year. To pro-
tect its lien the city bought in th'
property at the sale for Sl75 and it was
then that Mr.. Adair appeared in opposi-
fio, 20 fho oouHrrnaf fion of fha eaIa bv
the court.
Mr. Adair is basing his opposition Oh
he latter part Of section 81 of the city
harter relative to the sale of property
OF taxes, which reads as follows;
On the first Saturday in Sep
tember, in each year, the as
SCISSORS and collectors, shall ad-
vertise in two newspapers Of the
city of Wilmington, full list Of
the persons whose taxes as afore-
said for the preceding year are
at that date unpaid. together with
a brief description Of the real es-
tate taxed, and shall, within two
weeks thereafter, make and de-
liver the certificates required by
this section to the solicitor for
said city for all such taxes as
sessed on real estate as aforesaid
which shall not then have been
paid.
It is understood that this section
1as never been followed in the pro
,edure of selling properties for taxei
aud Mr.. Adair will contend it was no
done in this particular case and there
fore the sale was not legal. Mr.
Hastings, is now working on his sid
of the case and will be prepared t
Of the case on Monday.

are being lined with light lumber, thus

and Feed company il the action Of the

whole is formally endorsed. The COM
pany asked for five-yoar contract but
opposition to any contract FOR more than

Commissioner y. c. Ilugcl, Mayor Dahl
man and Commissioner j. j. Ryder ar
gued the question Of the length of the
contract, Mr. Kugel at first opposing any
contract for more than a year and the
mayor ard Mr. Ryder favorng a three
year contract
This Is the only proposition We have"
said Commissioner RYDER. II know Of
my own knowledge that conditions now
are more satisfactory than they have
been for years It's all right to have a
theory aud oppose contracts or franchises
generally, if that is the way you feel
but here we are up against a serious,
practical proposition
"I am going to vote for contract, '
said the mayor because It is the only
thing we can do. II you have any other
proposition, Mr.. Kugel, put it up to us
now"
Commissioner Kugel suggested putting
the garbage in holes in vacant lot or
burying 1t on property which might be
used for that purpose by permission OF
the owners, but this suggestion did not
meet with much favor.
Finally Commissioner Kugel moved
that a three-year contract be entered
into, although the representatives of the
company at first said only a five-year
contract would be considered.
The council will take definite action
Monday.
| The contract with the Omaha Render
ing and Feed company has expired, but
the company will continue to perform
under the old contract until satsfsc-

ment is made shortly.
