'-hE DRUG EXCHANGE.


80 Construction Of Oummissioner DeInno
Upon the Dealers In AlcOhol--A Petition TO be
Sent 10 Washington.
AT noon to-day the Drug Exchange held meeting
at their rooms on 3 Third street. to take into consi
deration the decision OF Acting Commissioner Doug
lass with reference to dealers In alcohol
Inc President, Robert Shoemaker Esq, called the
meeting 10 order, and stated that the object for
OF the Commissioner of Internal Revenue as to sell
ing distilled Spirits in which the dealer in alcohol Is
nov erIned liquor dealer, and any druggist who
dtsposes OF more than five gallons OF alcohol shall be
known as a wholesale liquor dealer, and liable to
pay the tax as such In addition, any one who comes
under the provision OF the act regulating wholesale
liquor dealers shall be compelled to put up sign
announcing himself as such. Mr.. Shoemaker then
read the letter OF Commissioner Rollins OF August,
1865 In which that official had decided that alcohol
dld not come under the head OF liquors, and that
druggists did not incur any additional liabilities by
reason OF the sale Of alcohol in any quantities. He
also read the letter of Acting Commissioner Douglass,
reversing the decision OF Mr.. Rollins.
The speaker then said that conference had been
held which resulted in the forwarding OF letter to
commissioner Delano, asking him to review the de-
clslon OF Mr. Douglass In that letter attention
called 10 the TACT that nearly all the druggists had
nothing to do with liquors. and that they would feel
themselves degraded by putting up sign announc-
ing themselves in traffic in which they were not
engaged: NO answer had as yet been received in
reply 10 THIS remonstrance,
William NJ. Wilson believed that the meaning OF
the law was the same now as it was when 1t was
framed. The decision Of Mr.. Rollins was rendered
while the subject was fresh in the minds of the law
makers, and If it had been wrong his attention
would have been called to IL by the trainers of the
tax bill He submitted petition to which he wanted
signatures requesting Mr.. Delano to review the de-
cision of Mr. Douglass.
After a general interchange OF opinion IL Was
agreed to refer the whole subject to the following
gentlemen, who Will submit report on Wednesday,
