ADJUSTING A CLAIM.
Favorable Report a Bill to Refund Taxes
Illegally Collected.

Favorable Report on a Bill to Refund Taxes
Illegally Collected.
Special to the indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Voorheers to-
day rendered from the committee on finance a
favorable report on the bill to pay W. T. Pate
& Co., of Patriot, Ind. $40 3S5 for internal rev
enue taxes illegally collected in December, 1861
From the report it appears that Pate & Co. were
licensed distlers prior to 1867, and that in Feb
ruary of that year "a revenue detective made a
report to the collector of the Third Indiana dis
trict that the firm of Pate e. Co., had sold 1877
S94 gallons, which was in excess of the amount
actually sold, and which subsequently found
to leave deficit of 1862 gallons, making tax,
at 81 a gallon, of $l9, 385. Upon this report
being made the collector of the
district seized the distillery and
the assessor assessed this sum against
Pate & Co., without investigating the facts. The
firm, after the seizure OF their distillery, paid
the money on the 10Th of March, 1867, under
protest, and in April, 1867, made application to
the commissioner of internal revenue for release
of their distillery and repayment of money
stating in their application that the tax was
wrongfully assessed and collected, and that the
report of the detective was incorrect The Com
missioner of Internal Revenue upon receipt Of
the application made by the claimant released
their distillery, but refused to refund the
money. He appointed another revenue agent
to make an investigation of the facts, and this
agent after an examination of the matter, re
ported them the claimants had stated and
said in the report that the men were honest and
should be repaid. They will likely get their
money now

great Inconvenience to the mercantile interests
of New Albany. One firm alone, the proprietors
of the glass works imports annually over
thousand tons of soda ash, emery stone, arsenic,

noyance, and expense upon the importers. In
addition, New Albany is the largest manufactur

and water transportation are excellent, and then
she is growing rapidly in population and wealth.
A bill for the erection of a public building at
New Albany was favoraby reported by the com
mittee on public buildings and grounds in the
Forty sixth Congress, and again in the Forty
seventh Congress, but in both instances failed of
passage because they were not reached on the
calendar.
In view of the above facts, your committee
recommend the passage of the bill, limiting the
cost of the building and site for the same to
800 600.

The report states that New Albany contains a
population of over 20 900 inhabitants The post
Office at New Albany is the distributing office
for about fifty other offices. The receipts of the
Office are now over $l5, 900 annually. 1t requires

TARIFF REFORM.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal

Mr.. Wood Determined to Do His Part To-
ward Securing a Revision of Rates.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29-Congressman Wood
has truly turned tariff reformer He poses as a
martyr to cheaper wares and cheaper things for
the inner man. Whether he can get any of
these propositions out of the committee or not,
he says he is going to show the people of his dis
trict and Indiana generally that he would do
away with the tariff if he could. He was so
pleased with the way the world accepted his first
efforts that he put his head to work and evolved
other wonders. They came forth in the House
to-day. One is bill to reduce the tariff on
sugar. 1t provides that sugars above No 13
Dutch standard, and not above No. 16, shall pay
1 cent per pound duty, instead of l. 40 cent per
pound. Above No. 16, and not above No 20,
l 1-2 cent, instead of "a cents pound All
above No. 20 shall pay cents, instead of IA
cents per pound
Another bill, by Mr.. Wood, reduces the duty

children's dress goods, and ready-made clothing

that deals with the railroad problem. 1t pro

A Memorial Asking that the Government
Build Levee to Protect the City.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-In the Senate TODAY,
Senator Voorhees, introduced a bill appropriat-
ing $l50,0OO to improve the Ohio and Miami
rivers at and near Lawrenceburg With the
bill he presented a memorial of the City Council
of Lawreneeburg praying for an appropriation
and setting forth the immediate necessity of it.
The memorial is dated Jan. 25 1884, and state
that Lawrenceburg suffered greatly from floods
in the years 1882 and 1883 to the extent of prob
ably $3.50, 600; that the current of the Miami
river, when it overflows covers portions of the
city, and asks for a more substantial levee. The
city is already indebted, they state, to 21-2 per
centum of the value of the taxable property
within her corporate limits. 1t is thought $780,
900 expended ON levees will protect the city
fully against any future floods from the rivers
The fact that the manufactures at Lawrence
burg pay into the treasury of the United States
an averge of 81, 500, 600 annually is cited; also.
that the improvement of the levee for protection
of life and property, will, at the same time, i'm
prove the navigation. The memorial is properly
attested by the mayor and clerk of the city of
Bawrenceburg, and is accompanied by map
showing the situation of the city in relation to
the rivers.
