CITY TAX RATE
REMAINS $3.50
Employees Get Back $50
Pay Cut; Police Budget
Increased

Waterbury's tax rate for 1887 will
be $3.50 mills, the same as that for
the current year. On January LIST
all city employees will receive a five
per cent increase in pay. During
the coming year a complete radio
system will be installed in the po-
lice department. These are among
the salient features of next
years budget approved by the
board of finance late yesterday
The schedule will go to the alder
men Monday night.
Based On Grand List
The grand list ON which the COM
ing years tax rate and appropria-
tions are based amounts to over
$165, 600, 900. Reversing their orig
inal figures, the assessors reported
to the finance board that the 1886
grand list would be more than e.
200 00eE create ttSxft that 6fs 1855
1t had been expected. originally
that the grand list would be $780,
600 less for 1896 but the $4,000, 0OC
increase was predicted by The
Democrat two weeks ago.
Police Dept. Increase
In the police department approx
imately $4,000 Is set up for new
switch board and a radio system
In the fire department one new
large piece Of apparatus Is provided
for along with . new car for the
chief. The appropriation Of the
welfare department for 1887 Is be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 less than
that for 1886.
"a Per Cent Allotted
The commissioners have appro-
priated approximately "a per cent
of the estimated 1887 revenue. This
leaves a margin of safety between
the revenue and appropriations Of
six per cent or about $3.50, 000.. The
budget of the school department Is
$4,000 less than the appropriation
asked for and slightly less than the
budget of the current year. All the
other city department appropria-
lions remain practically the same
with some minor changes.

Washington, Dec. 5 - tUP) -
John d, M. Hamilton's announce
ment that he would submit his
resignation as chairman Of the re-

viewed today as the first move in
reviving the battered G. o. p.
Hamilton called the committee to

resignation at that time.
Political gossip since last months

a fortnight after the election there
were published, although quite UNI
ofiicial, reports that Gov. ALI M
Landon was considering announc-
ing he would not again be a cam
didate for the republican presi-
dental nomination.
Would BE Hard Slap

nation would, In any event. be

Hamilton's letter to committee
members, however, was so phrased
that It was about as much an ex-

on the job as to quit after the
committee meets next week.
There is no certainty that his
resignation will be accepted. More
important than Hamilton's fate be-
fore the jury of his political peers
