12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1896 A REDUCTION OF THIRTY PER CENT Assessments South of the Park Considerably Lowered. EQUALIZERS IN SESSION. Scores of Property-Owners Want Their Assessments Cut Down. MANY APPLICATIONS GRANTED Owners of Real Estate Complain That Their Land Has No Market Value. The Supervisors, sitting as a Board of Equalization, met again yesterday lf!&l’- noon and passed upon numerous applica- tions of comparatively small property- holders to have their assessments reduced. Those who wished to have the assess- ments on their improvements lowered told the familiar tale of being unable to rent their houses, and real estate owners complained that their lots had no market value, as they could not get an offer of any kind on them. As a result of numerous protests from property-owners south of the mrk_. the assessments in that neighborhood will be generally reduced 30 per cent. B The following resolution, instructing the Assessor to make the reductions, was unanimously passed by the board at the suggestion of Deputy Assessor Briggs: WHEREAS, In accordance with the opinion of the Assessor an error has been made in the as- sessment of property south of the park, from Fifteenth avenue to Eighteenth avenue, and from M street to W strect, therefore be 1t Resolved, That the Assessor is hereby re- quired to make & uniform reduction in the as sessed valuation of the property and return the same to the board on his list of clerical errors, and a report of the total reduction so made in the assessment board. Property-owners of every description ap- peared before the board vesterday praying for reductions in their assessments. A great many of the applications were denied, quite a number of assessments were reduced somewhat, and a few of the reductions asked for were allowed in full. The following applications for reductions in the real estate assessments were acted upon: F. F. Schloss, east corner of Seventh and Hubbell streets, lot 240x550; from $18,000 to $13,500.

SUTRO | street, W 150 by S 140, being lots Coroner’s Jury Returned a Sharp Verdict Concerning Frank Denvir’s Death, The Management of the Baths Cen. sured for Not Keeping the Tanks Fuli of Water. The management of Sutro baths was strongly censured by a Coroner's jury yesterday for the death of Frank Denvir, who fractured his skull by falling into an empty tank while preparing to take a plunge ito one of the smaller reservoirs. On July 8 young Denvir with several companions visited the Cliff House resort to enjoy a swim in the Mayor’s expensive shathing establishment. While in the act of climbing 2 ladder leading to one of the chutes his foot poed, causing him to fall backward into the large tank. This was empty, and Denvir struck on the hard cement, receiving a fracture of the skull, from the effects of which he died a few hours later. Ten witnesses were called to testify at the inquest, and with but one or two ex- ceptions they agreed that the ladder, as well as the plaiform on which it rested, was entirely unprotected so far as guide ropes or railing went, and when the tanks were empty the public was in constant danger. Professor Killick, the swimming in- structor at the baths, said that due care had been exercised to prevent accidents, and testified that a rope had been stretcned across the platform from which the boy fell. By the same witness, how- ever, 1t was shown that the rope extended only from one side of the platform and as a guard was entirely useless. Otner wit- nesses testifying substanmlg 10 the same facts were: Dr. Hunken, ‘W. Freese, Mrs. Rose Chapman and C. L. Hanke. The latter was with Denvir at the time of the accident. He said that he was going up the ladder just in advance of the de- ceased, when his foot slipped against Den- vir, knocking him from his position to the cement flooring below. The jury retired and after a few minutes returned the following verdict: d we further find from the evidence pre- le::‘ed that the deceased came to his death by accident, caused by a fall in an em&;y tank, and we, the jury, strongly censure the man- agement of Sutro’s Baths for not hlflns s proper depth of water in the tank in which the deceased met his da'.-'i'h' ."dt': h:;l‘her the management for not havi a “xfiéfl? depth n{::lusr in all tanks while the re in public use.

The subject of painting and whitening the schoolhouses of this City was discussed at the meeting of the Building Trades Council last evening. It was reported that at least twenty schoolhouses and rooms are in need of painting and decorating and the desire of the council is to have the work done by union workmen. In order to accomplish this a commit- tee, consisting of Messrs. O'Donnell, Schulz and O’ Brien, was appointed to in- terview the Board of Education and Board of Supervisors and endeavor to have the contracts for the work let to only well- known union contractors. Business Agent Connelly reported the strike on the Smiley job on Fourteenth and Valencia streets, in which about a dozen carpenters and metal-roofers quit work because a gang of non-union lathers went there to work. Only one carpenter, an Oakland union man named Aaron Perry, refused to quit work with the others, Yesterday when the workmen went to the premises to see if the difficulty had been settled they were called np and paid off. This evidently means thai the con- tractor does not intend to yield to the de- mands of the union,and that he does mean to have the non-union lathers per- form the work. 1f such be the case no union workmen will, under the rules of the affiliatea unions, be permitted to go to work on that job even after the non-union lathers have completed their work. —————— ‘Wants Its Taxes Reduced. The First National Bank sent a petition to the Board of Equalization yesterday asking that the valuation placed on its property by the Assessor be reduced from $677,355 to $3000. The petition alleges that the institu- tion is & National bank, and that a United States law Y\'Ovldel that none of the personal property oi & National bank shall be assessed 1o the bank.
