THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: TRIDAY- JUNE 23, 1878, SSESSMENTS. Anothar Batch of Complaints from Suffering South Siders. All Quiet Thus Far in the West and North Towns. There tas nolhing either mew or strange yesterday In regard to the South Blde asses ments outslde of tha usual batch of complaints. Even theso wero {fewer in number than on pre- ceding days. The whole number filed by 4 o'clock yeaterday aftornoon for the flrst four daysof tbisweck was 500, ‘Tho Board of Re- view was talkednt in the sfternoon by Messrs, Wallace, Ayer, and Wilsou, as per arrangement cntered Into Wednosday, and besides (liese gentlemen, whose office was to confer and con- rult with the Board, thero wero also. piesent Messra. Goudy, Tuley, Frank Adams, Roun- tree, Murd, snd Fuller. The conference was private, and losted scveral hours. Assossor Tice summed it up afterwards, when nppeafed to as to what had been done, by romarking that there wero plenty of schemes broached, but that nobody scemed to know how they would work in actual practice, or how, in fact, it was poasi- Lle to honestly get around lis asscssment, which ho coutends{sns fair and just as uny man, llable to err in conmon with all human Lelngs, can conscientlously make it. The Board will recelve suggestions and hints for several days, probably, and not decide what to do fn the watter of sustalning or throwing eside tho mssessmeot untll it hos re- ceived oll possible light on tho subject, gnd fs ennbled to decids intelligently. 1t {s tho opinion of somo of the Board that they liavo no power over the pcrsonal-property as- sessinent, for that nssesamcut was not com- Plelcd on the fourth Monday in June, and the jatw stijulates that complaints agninst any ss- sessment made after that time can be made only to tne_County Board. The assertion that the anlnmfl asscssinent had nut becu completed on the fourth Monday of thie month must be quallile] with the statement thnt only the feld- Luooks, or deputies’ cattmntes, had been re- turned; thoy had not been ndjusted with the returns from taxoayers, nor with the Assessor’s own views as to their Justoess, ‘The Board has nut declded regording its suthorlty to reduco the real-cstate assessments, It 18 oxveeted that tho real estate south of ‘Twenty-sccond strevt will luve been nssessed by the end of this week, and that the books will ‘be ready for inspection soon aficrwards, 1t hias not yet bren declded when the Board will heur proof to sustain the numerous objections flled durning the week.
