He Accepts Offer of Committee Which Plans to Organize Non-Partlsan Movement. Robert W. HIgble's endo rsement as the Fusion candidate for Borough President in Queens was practically assured last evening by an announcement given out from the headquarters of County Chairman Joseph H. De Bragga of the Republican County Committee, that the Republicans representing the County Committee, and who will attend the conferences at which the local candidates will be selected, will favor Higbie's nomination. Mr.

De Bragga did not give out the statement personally but it Is understood to have his support. "There is to be a meotlng of the friends of fusion in Queens within a day or so," said the statement, "which will be attended by the representatives of the Queens County-Republican Committee. Following what they believe to be the sentiment of a majority of the Republicans from every section of the borough, the Republicans will support the endorsement and nomination of Robert W. Higbie for Borough President." It was said that failing to secure (Special to The Eagle.) Mineoia, L.

Individual assistance has been given, but when It comes to organized assistance, the society wants to be sure that It Is permissible before it carries Into effect the improvement of the canteen.

TThs company's lines extend from Flushing to Little Neck, In the city, with extensions at Murray Hill and "Whltestone. Frederick Griffenberg, an engineer, testified that the reason for the small number of passengers on the cars at present was the half-hour headway. If the company ran cars every fifteen minutes, he said, the line would be patfonized by more people in the section, and It would be unnecessary to Increase fares for additional revenue, lie also declared that the cars of the Jina were so unsanitary that people would ride in thera only when necessary. John Q. Moran, general manager of the line, was recalled to amplify pis testimony at a previous hearing as to the number of passengers on the line at various times.

The case was adjourned until tomorrow, when Mr. Ioran may be called for cross-examination by those opposed to the proposed fare increase.

Davis of Roslyn as chairman and George H. Kennahan of Great Neck as secretary. The other member of the commission Is A. Percy Baxter of Port Washington.

Sisson, State Excise Commissioner, has sent instructions to the various commissioners as to their duties.

After announcing the approval of the appointment of the commissioners Mr. Sisson says: "You have been appointed for the purpose of determining the places within your town, not exceeding one for each five hundred of the population thereof, where trafficking In liquor may be continued during the year, beginning October 1, 1917, under liquor tax certificates, to bo Issued under sub-dlvislon 1 of section 8 of the liquor tax law. Certificates Issued under this sub-dlvislon authorize sales of liquors by saloons and hotels, to be drunk upon tho premises. There were outstanding in the town of North Hempstead as the time of the taking effect of the new law, 106 such certificates. The population of the town by the last State census is 23,687, and you are, therefore, authorized to designate forty-seven places among those now having such certificates where traffic, under such certificates may be continued after October 1st next.

tusion in nis support. Connolly Campaign Starts. The first step in the campaign for the re-election of Borough President Maurice E. Connolly was taken yesterday, when Mr. Connolly made a reply to a letter sent him several days ago, by a number of residents and taxpayers of Queens, requesting the privilege of organizing a non-partisan movement In his behalf.

President Connolly acoepts the offer made, and the proposed campaign is to be started at once. The fact that this letter was In the possession of President Connolly has been known to several of his close friends, and the reason for his delay in answering It was, It is said, that he has been receiving overtures to accept a nomination for a higher office In the city administration. It is the understanding that having accepted the good offices of the men who wrote the letter, President Connolly will be able to accept whatever nomination or endorsement may later be tendered him, and which he may think wise to accept." The letter which was sent to President Connolly says that "we realize that the meager salary doeB not command services of such a high order, and that your record as President would warrant aspiration to higher office, or point to more remunerative opportunities of a public character or in private business. Nevertheless, we are anxious to know whether, as a civic duty, you are willing to stand for re-election, and, if so, whether you would like the support of such a committee as was formed in 1913."

This is one of the estates which he has reported as not being administered according to law, and he has formally applied to have the guardian removed; the technical petition declares that the estate Is being wasted and misapplied, but statements In court are an admission that the estate is now larger than when turned over to the guardian.

July 24 The Lights, an organization of actors who hold forth at Freeport, are planning a mo-torboat cruise.

The route will take In Far Rockaway, Long Beach, Bay Shore, Patchogue, Glen Cove, Free-port and Manhattan. Strong entered an order yesterday di recting the guardian to account ror the entire estate, $303, at once. Testimony taken In the estate showed that Mr. Russell had scent the entire made no complaint, he declared. "The Individual owners of cheap lots have made no complaint.

The experience of the Treasurer's office has been that email owners are eager to pay 'heir taxes. On the other hand, there are numerous companies engaged In the sale of cheap lots at exorbitant prices, according to lot numbers on tiled maps, whose desire Is to escape payment of taxes as long as possible. "It has been found necessary In the orderly assessment and collection of taxes to assess many of these properties by lot numbers in separate parcels or groups of lots. The companies sell the lots on the installment plan, in some cases agreeing to pay the taxes for a period of years, In others assuming the payment of taxes upon payment by the owner of an annual charge, considerably In excess of all probable taxes and charges. They have not always faithfully attended to the payment of such taxes.

"Naturally, when a tax sale Is announced by the County Treasurer, there Is danger that their clients who have paid them to attend to the payment of such taxes will discover that the duty has not been performed. Hence, the advantage of attempting to defer the tax salo until such time as Increased sales shall have replaced the tax funds, perhaps devoted to other and, to them, moro urgent expenses. "The expense of taxing cheap lots has been reduced very largely, but the efficient operation of the system requires that annual tax sales be held until the non-paying taxable lots have been eliminated from the rolls by sale and purchase by the county, and the tax paying properties separated therefrom, so that in the near future all property appearing on the rolls shall be the property of owners who pay their taxes. This result will automatically reduce the volume and expense of taxation and tax sales, and will create a revenue producing assessment roll. All the abandoned and non-paying property will be held in tax title by the county.

Such improved or valuable property as may at times go through tax sale can readily bo redeemed by the owners, who have one year at least, and In certain cases from two to five years, to redeem. "It is true that six months grace Is vastly less than that allowed in cities. But the margin between tax and value Is exceedingly narrow in most of tho cheap lot propositions, as compared with the margin between such items in the City of New York. Furthermore, the margin is prescribed by the general tax law, operative in most of the counties of the State. The remedy is to apply to the Legislature for relief.

"Until the law is changed the County Treasurer proposes to enforce the provisions thereof as they now exist, and to that end will proceed with the tax sale as required by the law, as soon as the necessary preparations therefor can be made." Marvin Shiebber, secretary of the Suffolk County Taxpayers Association, writes to The Eaglo In defense of Mr. Tuthill, answering criticisms quoted in The Eagle recently. He says that the record of the County Treasurer's office during the past three years in breaking up the system of tax abuse has been a credit to the county. estate on his but there was also some testimony from the son hlmselt to show that at the time this money was spent for him he was getting good wages.

District Attorney O'Leary of Queens County indicated last evening that he was not to be moved out of the course indicated by the last Grand Jury In connection with the investigation Into the conditions existing on Palmetto street, in the Ridgewood section of Queens, by any ideas that Borough President Connolly might entertain. The District Attorney became acquainted with the contents of the statement given out by President Connolly yesterday and then said: "There was no indictment found by tho last Grand Jury bscause the information laid before the Grand Jury was not definite enough to sustain an indictment.

To obtain that information will require an extended examination into records in the Queens County Clerk's office, the files of the Public Service Commission and many city offices. It will take some time to make these examinations. The various city officials as shown by the testimony given before the last Grand Jury have been working on this matter for the past eight or ten years, and they have been unable to reach a positive result.
