Want Definite Tax Date.
Another lengthy question discussed
last night was the matter Of taxation.
Manor Quiglcy thought the time and
Conditions OF taxation ought to be
changed and if man buys piece of
property, regardless of the time of
year. he is the one who ought to pay
the taxes for the ensuing year. \
general discussion followed concern
ing taxes. Some one stated that the
pianos and musical instruments IN
the city mum beTed nG1N more than
were placed on the tax list. Another
person also stated that the furniture
deelers sell thousands of dollars
worth Of furniture which is never re-
corded on the tax lists. Corporation
Counsel Cooper replied, i'll regard to
the statement, that the taxpayers
really pay for three months back and
nine months ensuing when they pay
their taxes that the city must have a
definite fixed date to consider tho
taxes due in order to be able to have
tax liens. He suggested that the real
estate dealers get together and de-
tcrntne April / as the day for the
adjustment of taxes.
Mayor Quigley suggested that Il
ncw bill be introduced at the next
session of the general assembly which
would tax average bank balances.
There are certain class Of people
who Withdraw their money far
enough ahead of the date they hand
in their tax lists and state that they
are paying their bills, AS result
there appears no amount of money to
be taxed and the people get away
with something. If there should be
a tax on the average bank balances,
the city would collect some Of this
money through taxation.
The meeting adjourned until next
Tuesday evening when all the rest of
the city boards and commissions will
appear for hearings.

INCENSED OVER

Jassy, Rumania, Monday, March a.
by Wireless to Saloniki, Tuesday,
March 5.)-Intense indignation is felt
by the army and people of Rumania
over the terms of the preliminary
peace to be imposed upon Rumania
by the central powers. With its mill
tary forces scattered and its hopeless
strategical position, Rumania had no
recours except to yield to her power

The Rumanian example is pointed
to as a repetition of the bitter fate
suffered by Serbia and Belgium.
The royal family is greatly depress-
ed over the disastrous course of
events, Both the king and queen,
through the Associated Press, express
the earnest hope that the American
people will have a sypathy apprecia-
ton of the tragical circumstances that
forced peace on Rumania and that
the warm friendship that has always
existed between the two nations will
in no wise be impaired.
Hope is felt by the royal family and
the people that when world peace is
declared, some of the, sacrifices now
being made by Rumania will be rec
Under the peace terms. Rumania
not only will have to give up Do
brudja, lose control of the Danube
and endure other economic sacrifices,
but she will be compelled to yield to
Germany large wheat, petroleum and

that Germany will have control OF
the Rumanian railways for a period
of fifteen years and will have posses

Amsterdam. Feb. 20.-(Corrcspond-

the report that official recognition Of
polygamy had been given in Germany,

have been mentioned in the British
house of commons by Arthur j. Bal

by Lord Robert Cecil, the British
minister of munitions.
In the religious weekly paper, Die
Christliche Welt, Professor Martin
Rade declared recently that polygamy
is countenanced neither by the Ger
man government nor by the German
people. He contends that single
wives such as the n referred to by
Lord Robert Cecil. are the work of
irresponsible persons and should
not be taken seriously. Moreover,
Professor Rade holds that history has
shown that after all great wars. the
losses nave been made good by normal

Sale OF Horse Meat
Counted On In Paris
To Relieve Markets

Paris. March S.-The extended sale
of horse meat is one of h means
counted upon by h city authorities
to relieve the provisions market. The
sale of horse flesh for many years has
been considerable in the popular
quarters of Paris and it has increased
considerably during the war. Last
year 43,3s4 horses were killed at the
Vanguard slaughter house. The in
creased supply of horse meat had no
depressing effect upon prices, how
ever.
The British army is now the chief
source of supply of horses for killing.
More than $4,000 horses were received
from that source last year. yet the
prices went from the equivalent of %
cents a pound to 40 cents for ordi-
nary cuts and from IS cents to so
cents a pound for the choice bits of
horse flesh, 49,.

ARRANGING FOR
BIG PATRIOTIC
BOAT CONTEST
Details for National Regatta
at Annapolis Next
Month.

New York, March S.-Details are
rapidly being completed for the hold
ing of The National Patriotic Regatta
on h Severn at Annapolis, Md, Sat-
urday. May 18 n there are grounds
for h belief hat the event will be
n most remarkable intercollegiate
rowing contest in the history Of the
sport in this country, Not alone in
the number OF entries ,but in the con-
ditions which will surround the reKat-
ia does the event stand out as one Of
unusual importance. In addition, the
competition may have a far reaching
result upon college rowing in years to
come when national and international
conditions have returned to a normal
state. M p.
Seven eastern college crews are vir-
tually assured for the .so-called
varsity race and if Syracuse univer-
sity accepts the invitation, as appear
likely, there will be eight starters for
main events. The entry for the fresh
man contest is not expected to reach
this number but it appears certain
that three to five of the first year
combinations will take the water in a
race preliminary to the varsity bat
tie OF cars.
No definite decision regarding the
distance Of the ace has been reached
~ AO PlSS&Ak az UoS IL 10 1AoA6l
that the main event will be a two
mile contest. There is a rule at the
United States Naval Academy which
limits the navy crews to races nOt to
exceed one mile, $50 yards. The ma
jority Of the other institutions entered,
however, have adopted the two-mile
! distance as a standard for all prelim-
mary season races and It is thought
that the Naval Academy rowing au-
| fhNrif;oo- ui1V MT rhioot - Lave = nnjno
the National Patriotic Regatta to two
miles, under the circumstances.
A feature never before attempted
upon So large a scale is that every one
Of the visiting crews will row the
races in borrowed shells which will
be drawn for by lot a day Or two be-
fore the race. Owing to the demand
upon railroad transportation facilities
it is almost impossible to ship a rae
certainty hat the craft will be deliv-
cred in time for a scheduled date.
This was one of the difficulties which
was overcome by staging the regatta
at Annapolis. a number of eight
cared racing shells belonging to the
Naval Academy and the Baltimore
rowing clubs will be available for the
invading crews and these will be
awarded by lot.
The various college crew coaches
will arrive at Annapolis several days
in advance Of the races. in order to
rig the borrowed shells ~in.accordance
! to h requirements of their respective
oarsmen. The members Of the crews,
bringing their own bars, will not reach
the scene of the regatta until the day
before the contests and will spend
