Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York ex rel. Forward Association, Respondent, v. Lawson Purdy and Others, as Commissioners of Taxes and Assessments of the City of New York, Appellants.
Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, entered in the EewYork county clerk’s office on the 23d day'of December, 1915, denying a motion to quash a writ of certiorari and to dismiss the proceeding.

Opinion:
Per Curiam:
It clearly appears from the certificate of incorporation of the relator that it is not within the class of corporations or associations entitled to exemption from taxation by subdivision 7, section 4, of the Tax Law. The order should be reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, the writ of certiorari quashed and the proceedings dismissed, with ten dollars costs. Present—Clarke, P. J., Laughlin, Dowling, Page and Davis, JJ. Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion granted, with ten dollars costs.
