INTERNAL REVENUE DETAILS.
Tho causes which control the increase or
decrease in the daily amount OF receipts
AZ the office of internal revenue VIII nc OF
interest TO financial men. For several days
together. generally at the beginning OF
month, the receipts of tho Bureau range
from one 10 two and two and hal. mil
hons, after which they undergo gradual
duinution to about half million or less,
making an average during the year OF about
100000 day. The general revenue tax
is received lv collectors of internal rcre-
nue. every day; but from the inclination
that many persons have to delay the pay
furnt of the monthly tax until towards the
close "f the month, the amounts received
hy collectors are usually greater in the last
ten DAYS of the month.
10 IN
authorized government repositories at the
close OF each day the amount collected
during the day. on the receipt of which
the lank in which the deposit is made
transmits a certificate of deposit for the
amount TO the Treasurer OF the United
States. and gives the collector duplicate
certificate, which ne at once forwards To
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
A. the amounts received by collectors are
greater at the close of the month, their
certificates Of deposit for these receipts
Will reach the Bureau at the commence
,urnt uf the following month. Collectors
Of districts near To Washington have their
certificates of deposit Oh file in the Bureau
uu TIC same day the deposit was made {:
hpt the certificates Of collectors in the
more remote districts of course reach the
bureau hv mail from one to ten days later.
Thus the receipts at the office here are
always greatest during the first ten days
81 each month. In the first quarter of
tie fiscal year the annual income tax falls
due. Generally the month of July is con-
>umcd by assessors in preparing the list,
on receipt of which the collector gives pub
lie notice in his district that he is ready L"
receive payment, and designates certain
days on which he will be in attendance al
the different points /" collect. About the
first week in August the receipts from in
comes begin to reach the Bureau, and from
that time till toward the close Of Septem-
Der the daily receipts of the Bureau are
much greater than in any other portion of
tine ar.-t}u'onic'e.
