New Haven. Jan. 10.-The New Haven tax assessors Saturday took a very important step in the direction of taxing Yale college. Asserting that the Yale authorities had refused to hand in a satisfactory list, the assessors made out a list of their own of the college properties, which they considered open to taxation according to law. The total amount of these properties as assessed on the list is $39,782. It includes about 50 per cent of the real estate in the city, productive and non-productive. Under the Connecticut law, this tax list must now go to the board of relief, which is expected to confirm the assessment.
Counsel for Yale will then appeal to the courts, and on constitutional questions they are quoted as saying that it can easily be carried up to the supreme court of the United States.
