Hyman Eister of Colchester, who last week held up Mrs. Gussie Cohen while she was driving to the station to return to New York, and seized a trunk containing wearing apparel and jewelry valued at $117, was bound over to the next term of thre superior court Monday afternoon. Elster was arraigned before Justice of the Peace John J. Lawl of New London, presiding in Colchester, and charged with highway robbery. At- torney Morris - Lubchunsky of New London prosecuted. Mrs. Cohen was put on the stand and testified that she was going to the Coichester station to take a train for her home in New York when the accused stopped the carriage and demanded payment for a bill which he alleged to be due Mrs. Cohen disclaimed any knowledge of such a bill, but told Eister to send the bill to her home in New York, and if proved that she owed it her hus- band would pay it. The accused re- fused, and he climbed into the carriaze | and drove to his shop, where he took | the trunk from the vehicle Mrs. Cohen enumerated some of the articles i the trunk, among which was a diamond locket and chain and a gold bracelet. These wers gone, she said, when the trunk was recovered later by the state police, the trunk having been forced open. ¥ Attorney William A.

TAX COMMISSIONEX CORBIN ISSUES TWO PAMPHLETS. | | Important Information Regarding State and Local Revenues Given. Two pamphlets have been issued from the office of Tax Commissioner Willlam H. Corbin, one giving the legislation of 1913 regarding state revenues and the other the changes re- garding local revenues. The latter, which is the more bulky of the two, glves the text of the new acts and both compel the seeker after light to com- pare the enactments with the general . statutes and with the public acts of {1905, 1907, 1909 and 1911, in order to | see what has happened. A law re- garding the levying of school district taxes permits the district to tax the | personal property of persons living in is laid and to tax the property of any manufacturing business subject to taxation located in the district, but not including any real estate belonging to such a concern not located in the district. Another act ermits an assessor to add to a dis rict’s list any real estate accidentally omitted. It is virtually section 2419, with the word polls omitted because | of the recent personal tax. The act carrying a list of property exempt from taxation is altered by adding to the list church houses on camp grounds. Slight changes are made in the laws regarding the tax- | ,ation of woodland, providing for a graduated yleld tax. which runs from 3 per cent. of the yield upon ten years from the time of planting to 7 per cent. after fifty years. Tax collectors in towns are to pre- | serve carbon coples of receipts pald, { the silps being numbered and taken { Irom bound books prepared for the | purpose.
