BeeChCote, Residence Of
James w. Noel, Is
DESTROYED.

Loss estimated at between 100000
and 100000 was caused early today
by flames of undetermined origin
which consumed Beechcote, large
and lavishly furnished country home
of James w. Noel, Indianapolis at

Enrico returned to the house in an
effort to save some furniture, and

Clifford Snyder, neighbors.
Their efforts were futile, however,
as a heavy pail of smoke and the
increasing fury of the flames drove
them out at once.
Only casualty was Mickey, a red
Irish setter, presented to Noel by
his friend and neighbor, Taylor,
overcome by smoke, Mickey burned
to death in the hallway almost at
his goal in his dash for outdoors.

FAIL TO REACH
AGREEMENT ON
TAX SLASHES
County Adjustment Board
AdjournS Session
Until Friday.
DEADLOCK Is TIGHTER
Reduction Demands of
FeSIer and UhI Are
Stressed Anew.

Struggling for a compromise that
would reduce the Center township
rate below SO, the county tax ad-
justment board failed to reach an
agreement today, ar" adjourned tn
til 9 Friday.
Demand of Leo K. Fesler and AL
be E. Uhl, board members, for
reduction of the tentative 1912 en-
ter rate to $2.19 frightened the dead
lock.
The board previously had split
ito two factions, with four mem
b~rs favoring a $3.50 rate a: / Fes-
Ter and Uhl demanT'ng it he re-
duced to S275.
Fesler declared he was mot op-
posed to compromise bu anted
br get officials to agree to reduc-
tions.
Pleads for Cooperation
Nicholas H. Noyes, board men,
Der. pleaded for cooperation, as
sorting:
Let's try to do a good job. II
some one else wants to object, and
cause trouble, let them do it."
Moves apparently is aligned with
county councilmen, Walter C.
Boetcher, board chairman; John
Newhouse and Charles Resener, and
Charles A. Grossart, county auditor
This group has consented to a
$3.50 rate for Center. and contends
the county rate of Alps cents car
not be sliced.
Fesler again warned the board
Unless we agree, the $3.50 ta2
limit law will be enforced auto
matically in Marion county"
Approval of at least five members
is necessary, under the new law
to raise the tax rate above $1.50.
Charges that some members of
the board are playing politics and
holding up compromise" was made
today by Boetcher.
The board did not consider today
where it would make budget cuts.
School Budget to Be Target
Budget officials of the city, coun-
ty and schools must agree they will
not go into court and start litiga-
ton contesting the levy before 1 will
agree to the $2.75 rate" Fesler told
the board
Reduction proposals include a
suggestion to refund half of $709. 224
poor relief bonds, falling due next
year. This would cut about 8 cents
from the levy. Boetcher explained
another ID cents reduction could be
obtained in the civil city rate, ten
tatively $130, and the school city
rate, tentatively $1087.
City officials already have pro-
tested against further reducing their
budget and school officials will ap-
pear before the board Friday.
The school budget apparently will
be a target for huge reduction in
operating expense. School officials
probably will face a demand for re-
duction of the school term.
