CROSS CHARGE
Senator Brown Will Renew Mo.
ton Made During Course of
Priests Trial

Senator Thomas Brown will tomor-
row morning renew his motion be-
fore Judge Peter f. DAILY at the coun-
ty court in New Brunswick that the
Indictment resting against the Rev.
Francis Gross for Indictment to riot
and do bodily injury to Louis Csipo.
be set aside. The attorney made this
motion during the course of the frs.
trial in which the jury failed 20 agree.
but following strenuous objection by
Assistant Prosecutor John A. Coan,
Judge Daily ruled against him.
The objection TO the motion was
finely technical and hinged on the
matter of time.
The motion tomorrow will be the
same as that made during the course
of the trial and notice has been served
on the prosecutors Office to that ef-
feet.
II is probable that strenuous obiec-
ton will be made by the prosecutor,
who has made known his intention of
re-opening the Gross matter and
bringing the priest 20 trial when the
circuit court calendar is cleared. Judge
Lloyd OF that court will start his ses-
sions on Monday.
II the indictment against Father
Gross charging incitemen. is quashed.
the other Indictment resting against
him chraging atrocious assault and
battery, Will in all likelihood, be
pressed.

COLLECTORS
EXPLANATION
Of TAX Law
Seeks to Prevent Any MiSCon-
Ception of Revised
Tax Act

In order that the taxpayers and
citizens of this city may have a clear
conception of the new tax law, and to
prevent any misunderstanding on the
part of the taxpayer resulting from
the operation of the revised tax act
passed last year, City Collector Ellis
worth B. Walker, in a statement TO
the EVENING NEWS today, makes
the principal features of the law clear
to the layman.
"'rhe revised tax act of 1918 went
into effect October l, and assessors
are now making their assessments
under the new law. Under the old
system, assessments were made in the
spring and summer. the taxes were
collected I'm the autumn, and the ap-
peal season followed in the winter
and early spring. Under the new sys-
tenn, assessments are made IN the
autumn and winter, and the taxes are
paid in the spring and late autumn,
with a five-month interval between
the two payments, allowing all ap-
peals to be filed and most of them
disposed of before the second pay
ment is due.
"The transition period between the
two system calls for a doubling OF
labor by local. county and state ofii-
cials, but this could not be avoided,
I,
was made as OF May 20, 1918, ana
taxes on il are being collected, but as
SCISSORS are already working on the
|1919 assessment under the new law.
Appeals to county and state boards
will be carried through on the dates
provided by the old law and the new
dates become effective with the 1919
assessment. This makes two appeal
seasons for the county and state
boards in 1919, as well as the two as
sessment seasons for the assessors IN
1918. There is, of course, no doubling
of the taxes themselves. They are
merely due a little earlier 10 permit
their payment in two installments.
Assessments now will relate TO the
conditions of the property on October
