WASHEtGTOir, Sept 11 A hearing was bad before Commissioner Raura this morning on the subject of the taxation of bank deposit. Gcntle-tnen were present representing the banks of New Tork, Boston, Baltimore, and Cincinnati.

William Dowd and C. F. Southmayd. attorney for the Bank North Amerloa of Kew-Tork. presented, the sas oa Of the banks, and urged that the only equitable bests for determining tba bank de- oelta subject to taxation Is the Clearlsg-hous statemeat each day.

showing, as it does, the exact vudliron, of the deposit of th several hanks for tba day before. At tba conclusion of tba bearing upon this point, Algernon 8. Sullivan, of era. "representing the bankers of New-Tork sad Boston, presented the rtews of bis client. lie explained In detail the transao-.

tioas involved In stock transfer, and desired the Commlstaar to recognize the distinction between traosaotloua and actual derxiaite la basics: the tax atioa of the business of brokers. Be claimed that the Intent of all revenue law was to tax property and not transaction, as an lastaace he mentioned the porobaoe for a customer of 1.000 sharee of stock by a broker. The customer might give his check for $10,000. (the margin.) which the broker wonld deposit In a bank, and though he tare bis check for $150,000 to complete the trans fer It woald be entirely in the nature or a call loan and such cheeks should not be subject to taxation when deposited. In an active day the stock In question might be transferred 10 or 13 time, involving perhaps a million or more upon paper, when not a hundredth part of that amount of capital was in actual use, Tne brokers, be said, already pay a double lax a tax on their capital employed, and.

again, as this capital Is deposited in some bank subject to their draft. It appears In the bank denosit and cars another tax. Be bei'eved the same rules should apply to the brokers as to the banks that the call loan should not be considered subject to taxation, bat simply the actual casn deposited, in Hearing was conunuca uotu after P. the general subject being thoroughly dlsenated fa an Informal war. After a short recess the bearing was resumed at IP.

J. Mr. George P. BIt.pb.am. representing the Philadelphia Stock Exchange, made an argument olaiaiieg that the broker should not be asssessed as hankers under the definition cf the statute.

The Commissioner admitted that the 'Question hinged UDon a matter of fact, the character of. their bnlness and manner or doing It. Mr. Bitphatn claimed that In fact- the brokers merely acted as middlemen in bringing baser and seller aegether. and were not bankers in the sense of soaking discounts, receiving deposits, or receiving bonds and stock for sale In tne intent or tee statute, lie was followed by Mr.

Fisher, of Baltimore. who argued tkat call loans should not be taxed as deposit. The questions raised by these two len- uemea were brteny wnetner loans maae upon stocks to complete their purobase should be treated as deposits, and whether brokers receiving stocks for sals thereby became liable bankers. Daring the dubale which ensued the Commls-. Sioner Intimated sn Inclination to decide In favor of the brokers on the call loan question.

If it could be clearly shewn that law authorised such a decision, lie said his desire was to coUect only such taxes as tti law said should be collected, not to squeeze out of bankers and brokers what is not properly due. The discussion in regard to brokers rill be continued to-morrew. Upon the subject of etermining: an equitable basis for calculating the taxable, balanoo of deposits the Commls-; sioner referred, to bis ruling in the Inter-' national Bank rase, in which decision ba quoted and approved a rule adopted as a guide for national banks in 1864, which eicluded "from the balance" of any day's deposits such: check on city banks as were deposited oa that day for collection, with the understanding that the snoney was not to be drawn from "the bank until the next dar." He ald, so far from abandoning; tbi rule, a had been stated, he proposed still to follow It, and to recognize the Clearing-house settlement. The Ne'w-Vork bankers claimed that tbetr business was oocducted under conditions which would authorize them to exclude from their deposits these Ciearing-houe check wbich were passed through tbe Clearing-house with the understanding that they were not to be drawn upon until tbe following day. Commissioner Raum stated that in Instituting these examinations Into, the various banking inttl-tutione of the country be bad not attached Importance to thlsCJeariug-bous check question as a source of revenue.

The faot was that examina-- tlons made In Chicago had elicited the fact that certain banks there bad underpaid their taxes to tbe extent of nearly StJO.OuO, a0. of course, the suggestion occurred that If tbe banks In that city bad (alien Into error backers In other cities might bate done o. Examination already made In Boston, Baltimore, and Philadelphia had disclosed large amount of. taxes due. Cincinnati would soon folio, and, of course.

New-York would come In for ber share. From tbe examination already had In that city he was satisfied that about of taxes had not been- returned by bankers through Inadvertence or otherwise.

Ia th language of tb Stat officers, th State has "bay on its horns, and la beginning to feel ngiy in tbe matter of the Standard account The result will be a long and bitter fight la court. Tb first ot the papers above referred to is an affidavit from Vice-President Rockefeller, of tbe Standard, taken In Kew-Tork on July 8.

of which th following ia a- synopsis: That upon tha 23d day of March. 13BL W. F. Shell, Auditor-General of Pennsylvania, addressed tothe officers of tbe Standard Company a request fbr reports of capital stock and dividends; tbst on the Bth dsy of April. 1881.

a reply wa made on be half of said company that it wa not engsged In business is? Pennsylvania, possessed no franchisee there, did not maintain any one or agent there, and was believed not to be taxable there; that no reply was receved from the Andltor-Geaeral untu April 21, 1881, when a communication was receive? from Sim, reij tar-lag reports to be made within four days; thai tha Auditor-General wa Immediately given" notice of tbe absence of the President and Secretary of the company and the Impossibility of preparing reports covering a series of years lit so short a time; and that the company never at any time refused to make each Mportaj but asked tne inuuigene oi a icw viti nine, tnat without waiting for such reports to bo made, tb said Auditor-GBral made an estimate of taxes and charged tbe same against the company; that the account ia wblcb theeald estimated tsiXes are charged ar incomplete; insufficient, and in effective, because tt does not set lortn upon wnai capital stock or dividends said tax la based, and does not, as tt should do. furnish the particulars or grounds of tbe claim of the State that said account not settled upon legal or reasonable evidence, aad it la without any foundation in fact; that the company baa made reports, of Its capital stock and dividends, and desires tha Auditor-General. State Treasurer, ana Attorney-uunerai to open ana revise said aecouct and resettle the same upon tbe basis of capital stock and dividends, whiob must afford, in any event, the legal measure of the tax; that the company does not admit any liability whatever for taxes to tbe State of Pennsylvania, bnt asks a proper settlement of the account, to the end tbe proper court may fully determine tbe question of its liability; tbst ths said Auditor-General did not at any time prior to March IS, lbSl, notify said company or any of it omcers or aay claim or tne atata of Pennsylvania, or reauest any reports of said company, and that, having made reports fully it could be required to oo, even a corporation of the said State, it petitions to bare it said account adjusted without penalty or other addition. This request for a readjustment was refused by the Board of! Public Accounts, whereupon were filed the objections, which are really tbe line of defense tbe company will follow in the fight through-tbe courts, and of which the following Is a synopsis: The settlement Is annealed from as and tce company is not bound to pay any part of the scoop nt. because, Firu There was do neglect or refusal of the compaay to furnish Information which could lawfully be required, and tbe State officers did not make the proper effort to secure data on which to estimate an account.

btcond Tbe account is defective because it does not set forth the particulars, upon wblch it is estimated, and by withholding tbe same tbe company was deprived of the full right of appeal. Third Keivher the corporation nor Its business nor Its property Is in Pennsylvania, and It Is therefore not so hject to taxation under the la wa fourth The company was not liable to taxation under the law of 1868, because it wss incorporated nnder tbe laws of Pennsylvania; and Is not inecf- porated by any other State and doing business in I'cnnsylvanta firm.

Tenth The company is not liable to taxation In Pennsylvania by. the reason of the fact that tt obtained a portion ef its oil for manufacturing purpose in that State, because it would be oppressive, and tbe same principle might with equal force apply to every State wberein it purchases materials for tbe different branches of its businesa Mitxtnth The company has made frequent purchases of oil in this State, both by agenta and brokers, bnt if it is liable "to tax for tbi purchasing, then the law conflict with- the L'nited States Constitution, wbich says no tax or duty shall be laid on any articles exported rrom any Mate. me account settled by the Auditor-General and State Treasurer taxes capital stock In other States which has not now and never has been Invested In Pennsylvania whereas no State can lawfully tax property or business not within its jurisdiction, and the acta of Assembly recited In said count were not intended and cannot be construed to effect that purpose.

A special meeting of th Park Commission-', era was held at morning, with Com-missioner Olilffe In th chair, and several hours were spent la considering the department esti mates for the coming year, presented by Commis sioner Salem H.

Wales. Tbe amounts to be asked of tbe Board of Estimate and Apportionment are In the aggregate about $1,000,000, but some of the Items were not passed npon yesterday, so the 1 estimates will not be finally completed until the next meeting of tbe board, on Wednesday next The Commissioners have decided that it is necessary to make a considerable Increase of the Park Police force, which, a at present constituted, has, they say, proved totally inadequate for the patrolling and pretectlonof the 1,100 acres of parks nnder Its care, and they therefore ask for enough money to add 60 men to the force. For this purpose (150.000 is asked, and also aa additional S1O.O0O for the uniforming and equipment of tbe extra men. For the maintenance of tbe parks $200,000 Is asked for. This amount Includes estimates for essential repairs ot many perishable structures and works that have begun to suffer; from the ordinary processof decay.

For repairing tne walks in central and other City parka, and for laying a concrete walk along Fifty-ninth-street, from Fifth to Eighth avenue. (70.000 is asked. The coat ot laying tbe Fifty-ntath-street walk, which ia to be 40 feet wide and about 2,000 feet long. Is stated at $16,000. Tbe estimate sets forth that the present accom modations for the zoological collection -in and around tbe Arsenal are Inadequate; that the location i not as accessible aa It abould bo, and that It Is dUagreeable to the residents of tbe vicinity.

Tbe Commissioners have determined to make an effort to remove the col lection to some more suitable nlace in tbe Park. The department has not yet formally decided on the location, bnt Commissioner Wales ex plained to lax lixsa reporter that In his opinion the proper place would be the triangular pleee ot ground just above the large reservoir and adjoining the transverse road No. 4. The amount asked for to effect the removal and erect the buildings necessary to accommodate the collection is 000. Tbe Central Park lakes are represented a stagnant and festeriag Pools" la their Dresent con dition, and a the necessary supply of water cannot be obtained for them from the Croton reservoirs.

It Is also proposed to complete tbe upper part of Central Park at Eighth-aveaue and One Hundred and Tenth-street by grading it to tha proper level aad constructing a carriage way and waks. The sum asked for this purpose Is $25.000.

Deeming it also desirable to pave tba transverse road No aad 4 in Central Park, which are becoming more aad mere used for business purposes, and are cow in bad condition, the board ask for $68,000 to carry out thia work.

MISCELLANEOUS CITY NEWS A WEALTHY MAN SEEKS DIVORCE' THS TROUBLES OP in BRKSLKX TAMILT ALXMOHT ORAKTED TO THE WITH, Charles E. Bresler, a wealthy far merchant of this City, baa breagbt a gals la th Supreme Court for a divorce from his wlf. jtmna, charging her with Improper Intimacy with bis cousin, a young man of S4 years, named Benjamin Feeder.

Xr. Brealar, though a citizen of th United States and owning yaluabl real estate bt various portions of this City and Detroit UIcK, has resided for soma years at Llpsio, Germany, and the Intimacy between Mra Breeler and Xr. Feeder is alleged to bar occurred there and in London. England. Th ease waa before Judge Donohn.

in Supreme Court Chambers, npoa an application on behalf of tbe- wit for an allowance for alimony and counsel fee. It appears from tbe papers filed upon the application that Mra Bresler Is now 86 years old, while ber husband la 65. They were married In October, 1806. though sh bad lived with blm as bis wife for seven years prior to that time, and bad been In bis family sine ah waa 10 years old. Tbey have eeven children, the eldest being 10.

Mrs. Breeler declares that her husband has treated ber crneily for some years past' and bas bad detectives watching her for a long time. About a year ago be struck her in the face, inflicting a severe wound, which bled profusely, necessitating tbe services of a pnysician. bhe denies very earaeetly having bad any improper relations with Mr. Feeder, who, sh rays, is engaged to married to ber daughter Rosa, 16 years old.

All the improper acta charged against Mra Bresler are cla'med to have occurred when she was accompanied by ber daughter, aad tbe latter jotna with her mother aad Xr. Faeder ia their denial of tbe accusations. Mr, Bresler says be lived happily with hia wlf until 1S7H. when learned that she had been unduly Intimate with Richard Hoffman, a piano teacher who was employed to give lessons to th children. She con.

eased, he says, that sb wa very intimate with and loved Hoffman, bnt denied any criminal Intt-macy. She gave him a paper in which she declared "Ihavegtvea ray whole love to R'chard Huffman, and that for that reason I have ao farther love for sny husbands that I no longer wish to act and force my rlghta aa a mother over our child ran. Taereforel bare agreed that aa application for a divorce should be made, to which both ot ns have agreed. Tbe call, drsa are to belong to my huicanl aud 1 release aay right to Inherit anything from them." They afterward became reconciled, but in October, le7. on ber return from Ems, be accidentally found In her possession letters written by Hoffmen.

Then he discovered that in 1877 an aad Hoffman were together at Eros. She struck at him when he accused her of thia, and ia avoiding tb blow be accidentally struck her in the face with a larg ring he wore, and this, be says, was tha assault she complains ot. did not live with ber after that but retrained from seeking a divorce on account of tha disgrace to the About this time Benjamin FeedeR relative, cam to Lelpsio from Philadelphia io pursn bis mri steal education, he being a violinist Mr. Bresler left Lelpsio for New-York In September. 10.

Jlresler. In London, made a crim laal charge agalnstTaeder that be had stolen this property. Tbe charge was dismissed, and then a charge of perjury was made by Mrs. Bresler against a Mra. James Coomb, of whom she bad taken lodgiags, because she had testified upon th proceedings agalast Faeder that she had seen tb latter in Mrs.

Bresler's bed. Mr. Faeder and Miss Bresler testified that Feeder-had attended Mra Bresler and gave her medicine when she wss eon fined to her bed with illness. This charge waa also dismissed. A large number of affidavits were offered on behalf of Mr.

Bresler that while at Lei lo, Faeder and Mra Bresler were very intimate; that tbey were seen by the cook kissing each other In the kitchen and in the summer-house; that Mra Bresler would take Faeder by the neck and throw her arms arbond him. after the fashion of lovers." A letter written by Faeder to a friend ts given. In which he says "I wish this trouble between the B's would end. I got myself mixed up in the affair and don't know how to get out of it, I suppose what can't be cured must be endured. Please don't say anything to nobody." Mra Bresler declares that she left Lelpsio for London because ber husband had cut off all allowances for the support of herself and daughter, and for the reason that she was constantly annoyed by hired spies.

She knew nothing of the divorce suit until her attorney in this City eeat ber the aummona which he had cut from a newspaper, an order having been made that it be served by publication, though her husband well knew her address in London, Jndge Donohne referred tbe question of Mr. Bresler's 'ability to pay alimony, and upon testimony taken bv the Referee, veatardav gave the following decision: While there Is enough la this rase to justify tbe plaintiff In submitting the charges alleged to a jury, there la also that In the case that will induce the court to see that the de fendant base fair trial and the means of defend ing herself upon those chargea The evidence shows that she has nothing in ber own right that ia available to ner. i ne piamtia a man or very large meana and while bis actual iaoome ia not proportioned to the value of bis property, that arises simply from bis holding unproductive real estate for higher pricea Again, all the acts charged arose, in another country, where the domicile of defendant and plaintiff's children had been Bled by tne plalntin blmself.and he ha chosen, while fixing such domicile thouaands of mile off. to bring th issue as to the questions of faot here, tboagh the proofs as to those questions have to be taken there. Evidonce must necessarily, at great expense, be got from the witnesses there, and the defendant will be put to the necessity of going mere tq procure ner testimony ana to co trout tbe plaintiff's wttaevsea The position and standing of tne parties ana uie amount neretorore allowed defendant for expenses are also to be considered.

Under all the circumstaacea I think (80 per week for alimony and si.uiv tor expenses to be reasona ble. It may be hard on the plaintiff If be succeeds, but the question at issue Is one yet to be tried. TRADE AND -TRANSPORTATION. ETATE BXXATOKS WHO AID CORPORATIONS THE BANKRUPTCY LAW.
