In order to get all the baggage of returning summer sojourners to Long Island City and Manhattan, the Long Island Railroad put Into service yesterday two trains for the transportation of baggage alone. They started from Amagansett. One came into Long Island City, while the other went on to Manhattan. Together the two trains carried nearly 6,000 pieces of bag anti-Cassidy men are on the warpath The hostile factions held rival meetings last night, one in Long Island City, where the Cassidy adherents met, and the other In Flushing, where the antis got together at the Shinnecock Club. Cassidy, as chairman of the County Committee, called a meeting of that body at the Democratic Club In Long Island City, last night, for the purpose of se USED ICE PICK AS WEAPON.

John Cassalo, an Italian living at 115 Vernon avenue, Long Island City, was held under ball by Magistrate Smith In the Long Island city police court yesterday afternoon to await the results of Injuries which he Indicted uopn a fellow laborer, Joseph StavanoskI, and which the surgeons at St. John's Hospital believe may prove fatal. The two men were working at the dock of the Knickerbocker Ice Company at Vernon and First streets, Long Island City, yesterday afternoon when they quarreled. It was charged that Cassalo picked up an Ice ax and pick, and drove the pick into Stavanoski's breast. In the Court of Special Sessions yesterday at Jamaica, with Justices Forker, Deuel and Steinert on the bench, the much-talked-of Margaret Smith and Frank Jenne case was dismissed.

The man and woman wore charged with endangering the morals of Mrs. Smith's children at their home on Puntlne street. In Jamaica. Tho oldest child, a girl of 13 years, was the chief witness against her mother and Jenne. She had previously made a grave charge against her father, and on the trial had testified that the affidavit ehe had made was not the truth, and he was therefore acquitted.

The court thought that her testimony in this case might be doubted. It therefore granted a motion to dismiss upon the grounds that there Frank Pydo, 11 years old, of Kosciuskf street, Jamaica, had an experience last evening which he will not forget shortly While selling newspapers at Fulton and Ray streets, Jamaica, about 6 o'clock, iic dodged from behind a wagon in front ol the automobile of Walter I. Willis of Jamaica. He was knocked down and tlu car passed over him, but he did not re. reive even a scratch.

He suffered froir, shock, however, and Dr. Kagan of SL Mary's Hospital, was called and revive him. After gathering his papers, Willis gavo him his card and a greenback and the boy started on a ru for. home. STATE BOARD TO INVESTIGATE uwiloughby avenue).

It was decided that the county should be made a ynit and that the county convention should be held at Scheutzen Park, Long Island City, on October 7, the Assembly convention on October 2 and the Aldermanlc convention on October 5. While this meeting was being held the antl-Cassldy faction, most of them followers of Grosser, held their meeting In Flushing. That is the club which has as a member ex-Sheriff Harvey, who was leader until beaten by Cassidy last fall.

Twenty members of the standing committee out of forty-five county commit Charles M. Reed to Hester Rogers, gage and express. According to railroad officials, this Is at least one-third more than the record of last year. In the midst of this shipment of baggage, the officials at the Long Island City end received 2,100 cases of fish from Long Island fishermen, consigned to Fulton Market. This had to be gotten out of the way in a hurry.

The officials declared that this was an evidence of the growth of the fish industry on Long Island. Another interesting Incident pointed out by the railroad officials was the number of pieces of baggage bearing tags denoting far WeBtern destinations, some for Minnesota and some for St. Louis. The number of these was larger than at any time in the history of the Long Island Railroad due, of course, to the Pennsylvania's through trains.

Carl Berger presided and former Assemblyman Thomas Todd acted as secretary. Resolutions were passed making the unit of representation the election district. The meeting had no power to fix dates of the conventions. The Cassidy men declare that If Governor Dix removes Gresser from office they will win easily, while If Gresser is retained In office the antl-Cassldy force3 will have things their own way. QUEENS CHAMBER TO MEET.

Many Important Matters to Be Discussed on Friday. A meeting of the Chamber of Commerce B. Lord, of the law firm of Lord, Pay The court sent him to Jail for thirty days. William Harmon of Jamaica, who was manager of a hotel at Rockaway Road and Beaver street, Jamaica, was found $400; assessment $600. Mr.

Lord gives other similar instances of Inequality In the rate of assessments, and the total consideration recorded for these properties1 amounts to $360,224, on which the assnsmer.t $104,395. Mr. Lord says that to confirm the ratio of thirty per cent, assessments in the Town of Hempstead, he went to the County Clerk's office and- made a list of all the loans made by the Southold Savings Bank, the Sag Harbor Savings Bank, the Eagle Savings and Loan Association, the Riverhead Savings Bank and the East New York Savings Bank, during the period between September 1, 1910, to August 18, 1911. He then looked up the assessments. A savings bank, he points out, is not allowed to loan more than 60 per cent, of the value of property, and it Is likely that the ratio on these loans ls less than that.

He then gives the following list of loans compared to assessments on parcels of property in Hempstead Town; Loan. Assessed. September 15. 1910. Rosette guilty of maintaining and conducting disorderly bouse.

Among the important matters to be taken up at this meeting are the following: First Report by G. Howland Leavltt, as chairman of a special committee on the highways of Queens Borough.

Mr. Leavltt has made a thorough study of this question this summer, and will have a complete report ready for the meeting.

Lord, of New York City. Mr. Lord is one of the most prominent residents of Nassau County, and represents the Nassau County Water Company.

The charges were to the effect that the assessed value of property in the towns of Nassau County was only 24 per cent, of the actual value of the property, and in some cases only 14 per when the law requires that the assessors base their tax levy on approximately the full value of the property. 8o Important were the disclosures considered by Equalization Board, which consists of Lieutenant Governor Conway, Secretary of State Lazansky, Controller Sohmer. Treasurer Kennedy, Attorney General Cormody, Speaker Frisble and State Engineer Bensel, with the 'three State Tax Commissioners, that the meeting of the board was adjourned and a subcommittee, consisting of the Secretary of State and Commissioner Byrnes, was appointed to investigate the charges made by Mr. Lord. The subcommittee will begin its sessions on Monday of next week in the courthouse in Mineola.

Mr. Lord was led to make his protest tbiough the fact that the corporation which he represents is taxed by the State Board of Tax Commissioners on 100 per cent, of its franchise value. The other property in the county, he argues, is taxed at an average of only 24 per and this makes his company pay a greatly disproportionate share of the taxes in the various towns. Mr. Lord is very specific in his charges.

Following a table to show that there has been no Increase In the townships of Oyster Bay and North Hempstead, Mr. Lord concludes that the ratio in North Hempstead is only about 14 per cent, and about the same in Oyster Bay.

He ends with the statement that the assessed value of all the propery in the county is only $82,838,337, while the actual value of the real estate In the county is Tax Commissioner Byrnes and Secretary of State Lazansky will make a thorough invectigation of these statements. If they can be proved true, a thorough overhauling not only of Nassau County's methods of laying assessments, but of all the counties In the State, may be the outcome. By making a showing as a "poor" county, the assessors can manage to relieve the taxpayers of their county from their Just share of the State' taxeB, and 'New York City, which is on a 100 per cent, basis approximately, has lo bear a disproportionate share of the taxes of the entire State. feet, built in 1871.

He says that the Attorney General wrote a very strong letter to the District Attorney of Nassau County last year, directing him to punish the assessors for not making adequate assessments. He says that this communication was utterly Ignored by the assessors of the towns of Oyster Bay and North Hempstead, but was followed to some extent by the assessors of the Town of Hempstead, who "Immediately raised their assessment from $21,000,000 to $68,000,000."
