The appeal of the Mohican company from the action of the assessors of New London in fixing a value at which ‘the property of the company in New London is taxed, was heard Wednes- day in the superior court by Judge William S. Case. i . The Mohican company in its petition states that it. reported the building for $116,666.67, and the furniture for $10,000, but that the board of asses- sors raised the building to $141,000 ang the furniture to $20,000. William,/Dewart, Jr., was on the wit- ness stand a good part the day. He is in the emplo yof Frank.A. Munsey, or, at least, of the Mohican company, and he fixed his value on the property, the hotel, stere, hotel furnishings, toid of the cost of alterations etc. Mr. Dewart testified that the gross earn- ings of the building, minus the store Teceipts, were between $88,000 “and $89,000 for 1909 and 1910, thé year in which the disputed assessment was made. He thought a rental value could be fixed from that sum on a basis of 7 1-2 per cent, which would make $6,500 a fair rental value for the Build- ing, to which could be added $2,000 for the store. making a total rental value of $8,500. Mr. Dewart testified that the hotel lost between -$9,000 and $10,000 in the 1909-1910 spason. He said the dining room is a loging proposition any way and that whatever profit can be made must come from other sources. Mr. Dewart believed a = building with the same capacity as the present hotel—200 roems, fireproof and in every ! Way modern, could be erected for from | $225,000 to $240,000. He added that the | market value of the present building | in October, 1910. when the assessors assessed it at $141,000,' was not more than $175,000, which assessed at two- thirds, as is the custom there, woulM i e but $116,666.67. Regarding the furniture Mr. Dewart | said it would not bring more than | ten per cent of its cost, $26,000, at forced sale. and certainly under any | kind of a sale would not bring more than $13,000.
