A fair sprinkling of women was included in the crowd which, congregated on the well-known Sardine principle, obliterated all evidence of seating andjjanding room in the council chamber, and surged through the doorway into a healthy overflow gathering in the halls. Inside the council enclosure, in which a court of revision comprising five members of the town council sat, to hear appeals against the assessment, the congestion was scarcely less evident.

McIntyre, who was found not guilty of maintaining a place for the purpose of recording bets, was unable, however, io tell the exact location of the Detroit bookmaking establishment, because of the flatiron curves on Larned street. RAIDED SATURDAY There was a good deal of sparring for position between Crown Attorney James S. Allan and Gordon Fraser, McIntyres counsel, before tho case got under way. The charge was laid by the provincial police, growing out of a raid on McIntyre's house at 467 Dougall avenue, last Saturday after- -noon. The crown attorney explained that the charge, being laid under Section 225 of the Criminal Code, meant a term in ail if a conviction were registered.

Magistrate Brodie advised that the offence ought to be confined to a specific date as nearly as possible. Well, the attorney replied. "it can read October 29, and divers days previous. "Now, now, Mr. Allan, that word divers is a nasty word," interposed Mr.

Fraser. And so the Information was changed to read: On or about.

Mcfnlyre told the court he had lived in Windsor IS years, and that lie had made betsn varying in amounts from 50 cents to 100.

Asked if the Ford Motor Company of Canada can do nothing to stop this stock selling campaign in Canada, Mr. Campbell stated two years ago when another organization began similar activities his company was successful in securing a temporary restraining order from the j.Iew York State attorney-general.

FORD REBATE ON COSTJF SEWER Walkerville Disputes Amount; Engineers to Confer H. W. Patterson, Ford's town engineer, was authorized by the council at its meeting last night to get in touch with Engineer J.

Clark Keith, of the Essex Border Utilities Commission, in order to secure information relative to Fords agreement with Walkerville on the relief main sewer used by those municipalities. Ford, through Furlong and Company, town solicitors, is seeking a refund of 7,721, plus interest from January 1. 1927, at the rate of six percent, from expenses entailed by that drainage sewer. Walkerville is willing to rcTund only 1,121.60 and interest from January 1. Walkerville claims that the agreement between the two towns on that sewer does not contain the true intention of the parties concerned.

Should Engineer Keith be unable to straigthen out the difficulty, it Is possible that Ford and Walkerville may have a friendly lawsuit to settle the matter.

IS SHORE ROUTE The road in question passes through the township of Sandwich East, Maidstone, Rochester, and Tilbury North, in Essex County, and the township of Tilbury East and Raleigh in Kent County, and passes along the shore of Lake St Claire and the Thames river. The petition, in part, reads as follows: That the said road is now much traveled, especially by tourists coming from the United States. "That the said road is a heavy burden on the municipalities concerned for its repair and maintenance. "That the said road, if it is well-graveled or paved, would be of great value to province at large, and would divert some of the traffic from the other provincial roads passing through the said counties, thus relieving them of the, heavy traffic they have.

At the time of adjournment last night, the court bad skirted the fringes of the task before it, -without having touched the matter involved in the original appeal filed by Mr. KrmnliiB. Certainty of two or three more evenings work still remains before the court, with an equal certainty of appeal from many of its decisions, to the County Judge, at the end of lts deliberations. Members of the court of revision include Deputy Reeve Louis McKee, sitting as chairman. Councillors A.

G. Hutchinson and Eugene Breault, Reeve R. JI. Wilson and Councillor W. I Harvle.

Among the barristers present last night, most of whom left early after it became apparent that their clients would not be dealt with in the course of the evenings proceedings, were John Sale, acting on behalf of the town of Sandwich: and for various appellants, J. H. Kodd, K. Mr. Kenning, George N.

Grant, Harvey L. Barnes, Cordon A. Fraser, D. A. Croll, Roy Rodd and others.

Evidence Introduced during the evening, by such appellants as the court was able to hear in its progress through the formidable list before it, was anything but monotonous. The most unusual evidence" presented to the court was that of Mrs. E. J. Clark, 152 Sandwich street west, who said her house was over 90 years old.

and had shown an increase in value in its 1928 assessment of 240. This was ordered stricken oft by the court. An increase from 43 a foot frontage to 60 a foot frontage on her lot, also protested by Mrs. Clark, was ordered to stand. 60 a foot being the standard rate established by the new assessment for property in the vicinity.

Protest Increase Mr. Dusseau of Dusseau and Murray, Detroit owners of Victoria Manor, a largo apartment building at the corner of Randolph and London streets, protested an increase irt assessment which would raise taxes of 3,600 paid by this property this year, to over 4,000. Appellant pointed out that Kensington Manor, ai similar apartment on Ouellette avenue in Windsor is taxed only around 3,000. The estimated income from Victoria Manor, Mr. Dusseau stated, should have been $31,320 annually.

This year the gross income was $12,000. Only 19 apartments in the building, out of more than 30, are occupied at present, despite a drop In rentals. This was due, he said, partly to Immigration and other causes of depression, and the fact that adequate street car service was not provided from Sandwich, to directly connect with the terry. "People do not want to travel by cars which leave the necessity of walking two or three blocks to the he said. An Increase in Victoria Manor lot assessment of 25 a foot, was ordered by the court to stand, hut a reduction of 2.300 on assessment cf the building, was made, leaving at 65,200.

Mumford, of Detroit, owner of a duplex on Randolph street at "the head of Kanchette, which she had bought for invest-' ment purposes, told the court she would have to make up 200 out of her own funds, on her "investment" If her 19 28 assessment were allowed to stand. The property cost her 10,000.

she said. It was assessed, at 6,900. The court cut this fig- ure to 6.000. The complete list of appeals dealt with by the court last night was as follows: London Frontage A. Abramson, corner of London and Patricia.

Lot assessed at 2,200 last year, and 4,000 now. These figures were based, the assessors stated, on the London street frontage, but the court was informed that, under terms of subdividing of this property, London street frontages could not be built up. A reduction to 2.500 in the assessment of this lot, was ordered. A similar assessment figure was placed on property owned by C. H.

Williams and J. B. Whitley, situated on the other three corners at this street intersection, and all covered by the same prohibition against building on London street. An appeal made by Roy Rodd, for Roscoe S. Rodd, applying to the two lots lying south of Mr.

Abramsons property on Patricia, was refused. These lots, with a 54-foot frontage, are assessed at 2,300. Mr. Rodd stated that they had been purchased for 37.50 a foot frontage last year, which was less than the current assessment figure. The court ruled that the sum mentioned was a bargain price and sustained the assessment.

The plea for annulment was brought by George Knight, of Essex. A further action brought against an additional mortgage for 1.200 against the same property was dismissed.
