Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York ex rel. The Coney Island Jockey Club, Respondent, v. Lawson Purdy and Others, as Commissioners of Taxes and Assessments of the City of New York, Appellants. (Taxes of 1912.)

Opinion:
— Order affirmed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements. We think that the findings of the Special Term as to the excessiveness of the assessment were justified by the evidence irrespective of the question of the amount of the assessments of previous years. Jenks, P. J., Thomas, Carr, Rich and Putnam, JJ., concurred.
