| CHICAGO, July 24.-The Jockey Club
races were attended by 5000 people, The
track vas in the best possible shape, and
ali the conditions were favorable to fast
time. The sport was exciting through
| out.
The first race was for the Chaplin i
Gore stake. 2:30 class, 800 entrance,
$500 added. It twas hotly contested, aud
the favorite, Hambletonion Bashaw was
beaten as follows: Parana won, Pilot r
second, Ham bIetonion Bashaw third. Pal
ina fourth, Time, 2:3ll, 2:223, 2:23t
2:223. 2:254
The second race was the most import-
ant of the day, and in some respects the
most important OF the meeting. 1t was
for q special purse of $1,000 between
Maud and Trinket. $3.50 to first and
$3.50 to second. Maud won in three
straight heats. The respective horses
had strong backing and when the fast
heat was called Maud S was only a
slight favorite. At the start Maud s
had the best of it and beat Trinket to
the turn, where both left their feet, but
Maud S recovered quickly and then had
the raea all her own way, winning in
|2:l9. In the second race Maud S car
ricd Trinket to break al the quarter
pole and made the first half in l:L71,
Around the turn she slackened up and
made the mile in 2:2l4, easily beating
Trinket. The third heat was surprisingly
fast. Maud S as usual set the pace at q
killing rate. that caused her oompeuion to
break and act badly, so that she was very
nearly distanced wien the heat was con-
cluded. All interest centered in Maud s,
who made the first quarter In 2S seconds,
the half in 1:055. the third quarter in
1:37a and the mile in 2:l3a. At the close
she received an ovation as she stepped
past the stand to her stable,

WASHINGTON, July 24.-The Internal
Revenue department made the following
decision:
The special tax of FIVE dollars, to be
paid By dealers in leaf tobacco, authorized
by the act approved June l6, 1880, is to
be reckoned like all other special taxes in
the, manner provided in section 1927,
United States statues. IL the dealer
begins business after the commencement
of the special tax year, the tax is to be
reekoned proportionately from the first
day OF the month in which the liability
com mepced to the first day of May follow
ing. a dealer to whom special tax
stamp has been issued under the provis-
ions OF said act, even though it be only for
a single month. the last month of the spe-
oial tax year. will be authorized to pur-
chase or receive and to sell or coDsign the

First Com ptrolier Lawrence has issued
the following circular to the United States
marshals: E #ss
By the appropriation act of June 80,
1879. the expenses for transporting con-
victs from one judicial district to another
and the expenses of salaried officers of the
government attending courts as witnesses
on behalf of the United States were class |
ed among the miscellaneous expenses of |
the courts. This caused change in the |
established mode of accounting for said |
expenses. In the appropriation act of |
June Is. 1880. provided for the
expenses of courts during the cur
reet fiscal year. the items of
miscellaneous expenses are not specified.
This seems to indicate on the part of
Congress an intention to leave the class
iRcatior of items to officers of the Execu-
tive departments and the accounting
officers have concluded 10 resume the |
former method of adjustment After
June 30, 1880. marshals will charge in
their accounts for fees of witnesses. and
expenses OF government salaried officers
who attend courts as witnesses on behalf
Of the United States, and will render with
their accounts vouchers for payments
made, stated in item and sworn to, The
law requires that fees and expenses in
Surred after said date in the transporta-
ton of all prisoners are to be charged in
the accounts for fees and expenses of
Marshals. Marshals who are required to
remove convicts from their own districts
to prisons in other districts should obtain
the approval of the Attorney General to
their accounts This Office has been in-
formed that in some instances guards
have been used where there was no
necessity for them, and that 10
other instances the guards hire has been
charged when guards were not in tact en-
ployed. No construction of the law will
Justify such charges. Guard hire is not
a gratuity, but is only chargeabie where
guards are necessary and when they are
actually employed.
