The Brewers Convention.

REQUEST THAT A RECENT ORDER OF THE
INTERNAL REVENUE COMMISSIONER BE RE-
SCINDED.
New YORK, May 21.-To-day was the third
day of the session of the brewers convention.
The committee reported a resolution, which
was adopted, that a late order of the internal
revenue commissioner, that when spirits lin
Guiding fermented liquors. are shipped to a
vendor by his vendee TO be paid for on delivery
the carrier is the agent Of the vendor; that the
spirits remain the property of the vendor In the
hands of the carrier until the condition prece-
dent (payment is complied with. That the sale
is made at the time when and at the place
where the goods are deliveredSon payment, and
that liability to a special tax as liquor dealer
under the internal revenue laws is incurred by
the vendor for that time and place, is an ex-
ceedingly severe, and, in our opinion, uncalled
for blow to the bottle beer Industry and the
trade in general, as Well as an unnecessary mo-
lestation to the revenue tax payer, and that we
respectfully ask the commissioner of internal
revenue to have that order rescinded." On re-
port and request of the literary bureau an ap-
preparation of S10,0 900 was voted for its work.
San Francisco was fixed upon as the place for
holding the next meeting, in May, 1856, and,
after eecting the following officers, the conven-
ton adjourned sine die: President, VIM. A.
Miles, New York; vice presidents, ID. Henry
Clausen, New York, and Charles G. Stfel, of st.
Louis; treasurer, j. c. G. HupfeI, New York;
secretary, Richard katZenmayer, New York.
