Weiss Becr q Fermented Liquor.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-Mr. Evans,
Commissioner of Internal Revenue, has
written letter to A. Briegleb, of New
York, the attorney for weiss beer
manufacturers, in reply to the brief
filed some days ago by the latter urging
reconsideration of the Commissioners
decision in regard to the bottling of
weiss beer from stamped packages, de-
clining to reopen the question, aud re-
affirming his former decision.
He says that after IA careful exam ina
ton of the argument submitted TO him
he has reached the conclusion that weiss
beer is nquestionably a fermented
liuuor, and as such comes within the
scope of the statute relating to the re-
moval of fermented liquors from
stamped packages. He says also that
he understands that asa matter OF pra'-
tice the beer is not bottled from the bar
rels, hut that it is dumped from them
into vat and other ingredients added,
and that it is then bottled. On this
point he says :"It is perfectly apparent
that no tax is paid upon the beer at all,
but that your clients pay taxes on
mixture about one half or one. bird AZ
great in volume while i'll progress OF
making as it will be when it becomes
beer.
He adds $50 that meeting you upon
the ground presented in your brief, 1t
seems to me to be a perfectly clear case,
assuming that weiss beer is termented
liquor, as has been decided by my pre-
decessors, that instead Of the weiss
beer men having grievance, they
| 4 c., god n
mitted to pay taxes upon only about
one-llalf of the beer they actually make,
this result being accomplished by their
stamping, not what IL beer, but the
initiatory mixture from which beer is
ultimately to be made by the addition
of othe r ingredients" He also adds:
If your clients bottle weiss beer
from the barrels upon which stamps
have been affixed, there will be no vlo-
lation Of law

Elkson Fsar.

The fairs heretofore held under the
direction Of the Cecil County Agricultu'
raj Society have been eminently and
|deservedly successful, but the one
which Ia to take place on their beautiful
grounds at Elkton on October "a, 3d,
4th and 9Th, promises to eclipse all pre-
vious efforts. The exhibits will be of a
varied character, embracing choice
breeds of cattle, horses and all other
farm stock, and products Of the farm,
orchard and garden. The poultry
show, it is believed, will be the largest
and most complete ever witnessed In
the State.
The entries for trials of speed are
numerous and the races which will
consist of running, trotting and hurdle
contests, promises to be interesting and
exciting. There will also be pony races.
In addition to the features already men.
toned, q band Of Indians will be en-
camped on the ground, and will, each
day, in full costume, give an exhibition
Of their native war dance. For the con-
venience Of Wilmingtonisns and those

intermediate stations and connecting at
Newark for Delaware City, and points

visit the fair, to remain sufficiently long
to witness all its attractions. Tickets
have been placed on sale (good by
either the special or any regular train)
including admission to the fair, and

SrRATFoRD, Sept. 28.-The town of
Stratford is again excited over what
looked like another murder. Early
this morning a body was found in the
Housatonic river, about two miles from
here, which bore evidences of foul play.
1t was first discovered by Charles Maui
throp, fisherman, on Scanley fiat,
sandbar In the middle of the river, ,seve-
raj miles north of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford Railroad bridge.
The body was badly decomposed and
had evidently been in the water for a
long time. On the left temple was a
deep wound, which was probably made
by q pistol bullet or a blow from some
sharp instrument. The nose was mashed
fiat with the face, and there was large
bruise on the top Of the head.
The body was dressed In black trous
ers, dark brown plaid coat, a white
shirt and heavy boots. In the pockets
DR.. w. H. Andrews, the Milford medi-
cal examiner, found two large handker-
chiefs, a small piece of blue ribbon and
several other articles; but there was
nothing among them by which the body
could be identified. The man was ap-
parently about fifty years old and
weighed ITO pounds.
His hair was black and curly, slightly
tinged with gray, but his beard was red
His appearance was that of well-to-
do mechanic.
Sometime ago George Royden, the
toll-keeper at the Washington draw
bridge, about three miles below where
the body was found, picked up a black
