Difference In Buildings.
1t was brought out that the state
board had probably gotten the idea that
the Flatiron building assessment was
out OF line by comparison with The
Times building; Mr.. Mahoney pointed
out that the Flatron is an old remod-
eled building. while The Times building
is a flreproof structure. The Flatiron
ground alone Is assessed for $50, 200.
with a total assessment Of $96, 200, while
The Times ground is assessed for
$40, 900 with the building at $4,000.

for ground and $4,000 for building, the
Keystone property at $4,000 for lot and
$780, 900 for building, the Hotel Annex
at 100000 FOR building and 100000 Tor
lot.
In considering williams island It was
brought out that c. T.. James was
about to purchase the property for
$1,000. This is the tax assessors
figure, while the state figure is $4,000.
The assessments on the Loveman and
VanDeman buildings were considered at
length. The Loveman property is as
sessed at 1886, 900 for building and lot,
which extends through TO Cherry. The
assessments on the adjoining buildings
were also taken up
That there was too much variance
between the assessment OF the Ham
ilton bank and the Miller property was
claimed by the state board. The two
pieces of land were compared very care
fully with regard to the ground without
the improvements. The Hamilton prop
erty is assessed at $4,000 front foot
and the Miller pronerty at $2,250. The
valuation Of the Fleming and Wilcox
property at the corner OF A and Ninth
streets was also considered.
The opinion of the board seemed to
be that the assessments We're lust about
as near correct as 1t is possible to de-
termine.
