Box 8%, Willimantic. Ct uous protest against being assessed _for. $101,000, which is an increase of 386,000, the officials of the compauy only having put in their property at $25,000. The conference between the Norwich gentlemen and the members of the board of relief was a spirited one and the matter is still undecided and_will be referred to Town Couns.l A, J. Bowen for his opinion. Mr. Robbins stated under oath, at his osn suggestion, that the water wheels of the company were an actual ex- pense of §21,000 to the company, and that all of the electrical appliances of the plant cost the company but $19,040. When questioed more closely regardit same, Mr. Robbins replied that he ought to know, as he was the treasurer of the company, and that he paid the bills. The representatives of the company were of the opinion that all the prop- erty should not be assessed in tbe town of Windham, advancing the ab- surd claim that the company furnish- ed power to the ciiy of Norwich and intimating that that city should com2 in for a slice of the assessments, nut- withstanding the fact that the entire property is situated in the town of Windham and that all the water dam- med up is in the town of Windham and that the land overflowed is also in the same town of Windham The board*of relief and presumably the board of assessors based the as- sessment upon the fact that the com- pany had improved the property and that it should accordingly be assessed for such additional improvement and further that the company and its ma- jor property rights are all situated in the town of Windham and that it is a company that generates and stores up a commodity for sale—namely pow er—all within the town of Windhara, and that it has same for sale for any public or private utility that may do- sire to_purch: 3r, Comstock wanted to be taxed tr acredge only and not for any improve- ment and he claimed that the 350,000 claimed to have been paid for flowage rights should be_eliminated from tae assessment entirely. The board of relief will hold another meeting next Monday in the forenoo jointly with the board of assessors. wwhen the various protests will be care- fully considered in their several phases.
