INJUNCTION Sought By Storage Man Ts Prevent County Officials From As sessing Taxes on Goods Left in His Keeping. First steps in the fight by warehousemen to prevent all goods In storage be ing taxed against them were taken In Insolvency Court yesterday, when Fred Pagels, conducting astoraie warehouses on West Eighth street, sued through Attorneys Dempsey Nleberdlng to en join County Auditor Pcaman and County Treasurer Cooper from proceeding to collect taxee against him on a valuation of When former County Auditor Peter W. Durr sought to compel Pagels to disclose the names of persons owning goods stored In his warehouses, he had the storage people cited to Probate Court to force them to divulge the names.

They re-1 fused. Whereupon Auditor Durr de-i dared they would either have to give the names of the owners or he would essess them with the value of the goods upon their tax returns, and then It would be up to them to pay the taxes, or disprove ownership by divulging the names of the real owners, so these could be taxed. Following this plan. Auditor Durr listed 100 pianos, at 175 each; 160 automobiles, at It, 000 each; BOO sets of furniture, at 100 each, and paintings, chlnaware and ias ware amounUng to 110,000. a total of 1217,500, added to Pagel's original return of 15.890.

Now the case has been taken Into the Courts, and county officials believe the names of those who own the articles so stored will be disclosed and they will be taxed.
