Report.
WASHINGTON, D. c., December 29.-Tht
Comptroller Of Currency reports the
amount oithe additional National bank
notes issued during December to be ST.,
945, $40; total amount Of the additional
circulation issued under the act OF Jan
uary IA, 1875, to date, $40,O70.2So.
Rauul, Commissioner Of Internal Rev
enue, to-day directed the abatemen oI
the tax assessed against the State saving
Bank Of Chicago, Of over $4,000. A like
relief will probably be granted to other
similar banks OF that city. It is under
stood that Commissioner Raum has ad-
dressed u letter TO the Committee on
Ways and Means, recommending that all
Savings banks be relieved from taxation
He, however, favors the retention for the
present OF the tax on banks and bankers
and is strongly opposed to any change in
the existing rate Of taxation on whisky
or tobacco.
