Matthew Ilahn, an employe of tho Illinois
Central railway, who room9 at 1103 Aveouo
Tho law passed by tho state legislature
t Its recent session permitting couutlos to
enter Into contracts for tho discovery of
property withheld or concealed from assess
ment for taxation nnd limiting tho com
pensation that should bo paid for this work
haB n direct bearing on the contract entered
into last November by tho Board of County
Supervisors with F. M. Cunningham of In
diana and, will possibly Involve tho board In
more or less litigation.
Under tho contract with Cunningham tho
supervisors agreed to glvo him 50 per cent
uf nil moneys recovered through his efforts
In listing property that should bo taxed, but
which had hitherto been withheld or con
cealed from assessment. Tho contract Is
for a year and a half nnd Cunningham for
two moutbs or 111010 has had a force of
clerks ut work here. Similar contracts have
been entered Into by other county boards
throughout the state.
Tho net recently passed by the stato legis
lature, while giving counties authority to
cuter Into such contracts, fixes the maxi
mum compensation to bo paid for tho work
nt 15 per cent of nil moneys recovered In
such way. It further provides that con
tracts heretofore made by county boards
for such work are valid If tho parties within
thirty days after the passngo of tho act sign
a -written agreement to accept the 15 per
cent In lieu of all compensation or of any
different amount provided by such contracts.
In tho event of no such agreement within
the thirty days tho contract heretofore
mado will 'bo Invalid.
Cmiii IiikIiiiiii In Now SluU.
Cunningham Is not nt presont In tho city,
being laid up sick at Guthrie Centor, where
ho has anothor contract similar to tho ono
here, and theroforo what his Intentions aro
cannot bo learned at present.
When It beenmo known that this law was
likely to pass tho legislature a numbor of
persons like Mr. Cunningham employed In
iorretlng out property for taxation suc
ceeded In Introducing a bill to repeal tectlnu
33S3 of tho code and substitute ono which
thoy believed would offsot tho new law.
Tho substitute, read as follows:
Section 13S5. Tho auditor may correct nny
error in the nssensmmit or tax list, hut ho
1'oro so tlolni; bo shall notify tho person,
iirm. I'nnmrutloii or administrator to tin.

shall he borne pro rata by tho funds
which aro affected by suld correction and

then tho law will step in and protect tho

whether tho county supervisors had the au

did with Cunningham. Tho compensation

tho constitutionality of tho net. Tho ovl-
