ASSESSOR COTTRELL'S PROTEST AGAINST REDUCING SOME ASSESSMENTS AND NOT OTHERS. At the meeting of the board of equalization and appeals yesterday, Mr. E. B.

And whereas the board also appointed & committee to examine certain houses on P street Dorthwest, and did adopt and approve the recom- Mendation of sald committee In a reduction of a Uke amount upon said houses, as will more fully appear on reference being ‘had to the min- utes of the board: Now, therefore, tn jnstice to the owners of property in said district, the fifth, relatively with the reductions maae as aforesatd, all the improvements having been increased comparatively with each other, It 18 Tesolved that the following prSperty be, and is hereby, reduced by the amounts as stated in the lst hereto annexed.” Appended Lo the resolution ‘was a list of 285 pieces ot property in the firth as- sessment district, with the amounts of reductions claimed as justand equitable by Mr. Cottrell. The amount of reduction Involved 1s about $250,000. After some discussion the resolution was laid over Until to-day. Mr. Cottrell’s resolution referred to reductions made by the board in the assessments made upon the houses of Judge Eimonds and Messrs. Bonaparte and Hazen, on K street, and that of Mr. Henry Hurt, on P street, The resolution was discussed with considerable heat, and afterwards laid over until to-day.

Mr. Davis asked permission to correct anerrorin fhe assessment of the improvements on College Villa, on the Georgetown and Rockville turnpike, in the county, from $2,000 to $3.000. A SHARP DISCUSSION arose between Messrs. Harkness and Cottrell upon. the publications made in the city press, Mr. Hark- ness charging that Mr. Cottrell had attacked him nally, which Mr. Cottrell dented. He had no idea of such intention, Mr. Harkness claimed That his district had been assessed right, and he was ready at any time or tn any place to meet Mr. Cottrell, elther on official or personal grounds. Ivis not lkely that the will take up the Cottrell resolutions to-day, as they are at work on the Increased amended assessments made by Mr, Harkness vo see how they compare with the re- ductions proposed to be made by Mr. Cottrell in his resolutions, which amount to over $500,000. It 1s expected that the increase made on Mr. Hark- hess’ assessments will offset this amount to a con- siderable extent. ‘WHAT ASSESSOR COTTRELL SATS. Mr. Cottrell to-day stated to a Sram reporter that Mr. Harkness had different ideas about val- uations from him (Cottrell) and others of the board, and they were not likely to The rates of reductions suggested in his resolutions Would have to be put on the new improvements in oh the districts,as he should advocate ail the e.
