GENERAL PRYoR's ARGUMENT.-The Ney

GENERAL PRYoR's ARGUMENT.-Thc New
York Tribune, in referring to the argument
of General Roger A. Pryor, on Thursday, IN
favor of the admission of Mr.. Titon's testi-
mony in the trial of Beecher, makes the fol-
lowing mention of the Generals remarks:
alt had been taken for granted that MIR.
Beach would reply to Mr.. Eyarts, and it was
lerefore surprise when General Pryor
arose, bowed to the Court, and proceeded to
speak. Up to this time General Pryor bad
not taken an active public part in the case,
and there was, therefore, considerable curl.
osity TO hear him. 1t did not take many me.
ments to see that be was an eloquent orator.
His defamation is eccentric, his gesticua-
ton earnest and profuse, and his
Temperament evidently IL nervously ex.
citable. At times he bends forward
and lowers his voice almost 10
whisper. Then, suddenly, as he becomes
aroused, bis Indian-like figure strengthens,
his face lights up.with intense earnestnes,S;,
and bis voice rings out clearly as DELL.
Sometimes he speaks very slowly, long pauses
occurring between his sentences. but al otner
times the words flow from his mouth With
oct effort, and his delivery is wonderfully
rapid. One Of his eccentricities is to play
lightly with his eyeglasses, swinging them
around his finger, then placing them upon
his nose and peering curionsy over them /;
next wiping. them with his handkerchief, and
finally dropping them and fliDging The hand
kerchief with quick motion across the
table. General Pryor was plainly very
familiar with his subject, and it was no!
necessary to be lawyer or judgeto under.
stand him, so clearly did be embody his ar
gument." H.

seems to be growing smaller and smaller.
Somewhat of sensation was created among
the senators. on that side to-day by the an.
nouncement which it Is understood Mr..
Chandeliers successor has made Of his posi-
ton. Judge Christiancy's announcement
that he will act independently Is accepted as
sure evidence that he cannot be counted in
the Republican column. The actual Re-
publican majority it is now pretty sure will
not be more than half dozen, and may be
even less than that.

the statement that the Committee on Privi-
leges and Elections bad not come TO con-
clusion in the case of Pinchback. AS there
can be no denial of the fact that the commit
tee yesterday did vote in favor Of Pinchback
by four to three, this statement, now made
on Mr.. Morton's authority, can mean no less
than that Mr.. Wadlei2h, who was absent

Tax on Weiss Beer.

Weiss beer, of certain strength, has, by
former rulings of the Internal Revenue De-
partmcnt, been considered as coming within
the exemption from taxation Of "root beer
aud other small beer" The revised statutes
of the United States, however, provide that
a tax of one dollar per barrel ehall be paid
on all beer, SC aud other fermcn,ed liquors;
and as the exemption act referred to was not
reenacted, but became void, and Weiss beer
being termcnted liquor, produced from matt,
or substitute therefor, and hops, it must be
considered as coming within the description
Of fcrmented liquors liable to taxation.
Therefore all Weiss beer made and sold, or
removed for consumption or sale, without
payment of the tax by atfXing stamps, on
or after January 1, 1915, will be reported for
assessment by collectors, and brewers will
be required to return such Weiss beer as is
made by them after the dale Aforesaid
