TRAVIS PUTS BRUSH
ESTATE AT MILLION
Thinks Giants Worth S7OC
a Share Instead of $267,
as in Appraisal.

from a Sta1 Correspondent Of Tie Trbunc.l
Albany, Jan. 27.-State Controller
Travis has ordered reappraisal Of the
estate of John T. Brush, the baseball
capitalist, on the ground that its value
was greatly underestimate by his
predecessor, William II. Sohmer, and
that if it were not corrected the state
would lose a large sum in taxes. The
valuation placed on the estate was
$470,l02. but Mr.. Travis believes re
examination will show a valuation OF
at least Sl,000,000.
The differentiation, the Controller
SAID, was principally in the stock Of
the National Exhibition Company,
which controls the New York National
League baseball team, popularity known
as the Giants. This stock was appraised
at 1857 share. 1t is the belief Of the
Controller that 1t IS worth 500 a
snare.
In making up the appraisal of the
stock of the National Exhibition Com
pany," said the Controller, mo consid-
Grafton WAS given to the prices paid
for the ball players, the number of play
ers owned at the tins of the death Of
MIR. Brush, or the value of the fran
chise of the New York baseball club
with the National League. No consid-
GRAFTON was given in fixing the value
Of the lease on the ball grounds based
on charges Of the use of the grounds
for Others Il was further discovered
that no examination was made as to
prices az which other large baseball
clubs have been traded in recent
years"
Reappraisals have also been ordered
in the estates Of Pincus Lowenfeld and
Jacob Klingenstein. Real property be
longing 10 these two estates is said
to have been greatly underestimate.
The Controller says he found that the
LOwenfeld estate included ninety-one
pieces of real property and that thirty
one pieces were appraised below the
assessed value, in some instances the
discrepancy being as high as $4,000.
In the KlIngenstcin estate, the Con-
troller says, nine pieces OF real prop
erty were appraised at from $4,000 to
$4,000 below the assessed valuation.
The appraisal of these three estates
was made under State Controller Sob
mcr. The report on those of Brush
and Lowenield was made on December
81. the last day of Sohmer's term.
Controller Travis has directed his
deputy. William Boardman, at the New
York Office. to have the reappraisals
Of the three estates made at once.
Lafayette b. Gleason. counsel for the
Controller, will conduct the re-exam-
ination.
