Mineola, March 28.—Na.s.sau County, through its asseniblytnan, Tiiomas A. .McWhinney, will ask the Legislature tn adopt a iwopo.sed act that will iier- niit ri'a.ssi'ssnieiit of certain pioperty in this county, which was sold \inder lax sales for unpaid taxes, and which were lield illegally .sold by a recent di'ci.sion of the Appellate Court.
H. Stewart .McKnight, county attor- nej-, .said this morning that the act v.as prepared to cover- all pioperty sold under tlie tax .sales, and which nre affected by the Appellate Court deci¬ sion, and would apply to all tax sale IIIIhs. It is done so th;it buyers of such lands at tax .sales could not demand a refund of taxes, which would mean. If the Idemands were met, that the county must pay out something like $i;(M',000, which it has already spenl.
The sales weie held by County Trea.':- urer William K. Luyster to bring into the county coffers tho.se moneys that should have been paid in as taxes. Tln' sali'S were held under the lax urrear:- laws, which permit the sjilcs, but the Appellate Court held that becau.sc' the town assessors did not carry out dlllo inaiks for every line on the tax roll I Mat the lot and map I'uopeity was not properly described, hence not legally sold.
