Opposed by Assessor.

District Assessor Darneille has reported
to the District Commissioners upon the ap-
plications of the Arlington Insurance Com
pany for reduction of the tax for the
second half of the year 1901, upon the
capital of that organization. The capital
had been reduced to 100000, it was stated
by the company. Mr.. Darneille recon-
mends unfavorable action, saying: 'It has
been brought to my knowledge that
the meeting held by the company and re-
ferred to by the writer was called for the
purpose of reducing expenses, and did not
affect the status of the company. At any
rate, 1t would not justify change in the
tax levy of July 1, 19OO ending June 80,
1901, the whole tax being payable in May,
1901, upon the 100000 retired. It is rec
commended that the personal account of
$l33, 63l. tax $3,002.97, stand for the present
iiscal year, leaving the question as to the
legality OF a change in the future to be
