Litigation.

Shareholders of National Bank Stock In
Litigation.
SYRACUSE, n. Y, July 27.-An argument
was heard here to-day by Judge Wallace OF
the United States Court on q motion for
preliminary injunctions made by thirty-ive
National banks Of the City OF New York to
restrain the collection OF taxes imposed
upon bank shares for the year 1885. pend
ing the issue OF suits for permanent injunc-
ton. The suits Involve the constitution
atty OF the entire system OF State taxa
tiDn OF shares OF National banks, and are
considered the most important ever pre-
sented to the Court on the subject. The
main point urged by the banks is that the
State law violates the provision OF section
5.219, of the revised statutes OF the United
States which forbids the taxation OF shares
OF National hanks by the several States at
a greater rate than other forms OF monied
capital in the hands OF individual citizens
thereof. Ii the point is sustained it will
effect the taxation OF shares Of National
banks in nearly every State OF the Union
and in many States the taxation OF State
banks shares as well as the tax upon
bank shares. In New York City alone the
tax is more than 81 900, 900 year.

Counterfeit Butter,

WASHINGTON, July 24.-Sir. Miller, Com
missioner of Internal Revenue, said to-
day he did not think the enforcement OF
the provisions OF the Oleomargarine bill
(should it become law would increase the
expense OF his bureau very much. The tax,
he thought, could be easily collected, the
same as the tax on tobacco, as there will
be no trouble in locating oleomargarine
an extra outside force in making collec.
tions, but very little additional help will be
required for office work. He estimates
that $50. 900 would cover all the expenses
OF collections for the first year, which col
lections would aggregate 100000. He
did not think that sixty millions was an
excessive estimate OF the annual produc-
ton OF oleomargarine.

CHICAGO, July 25.-The following crop
summary will appear in this weeks issue
OF the Farmers Review: The prolonged
drought which is almost unprecedented in
it's length and severity, is beginning to have
a serious effect upon the late crops. The
spring wheat outlook has been in no wise
improved and the average condition OF the
crop has declined since July l, when the
Farmers Reyiew indicated that the proba
BILE wheat yield OF the United States wonld
not exceed round total OF 42O, 900, 900
bushels. The tenor of reports indicate
that this estimate will haye been reduced
by from 10, ,OOO, 900 to 10 900, 900 bushels.
Reports from Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Dakota do not indicate an
average yield OF six to ten bushels to the
acre. with many fields entirely ruined. Corn
is reported very uneven in Michigan, Illinois
Wisconsin, Iowa and Nebraska, and while
looking clean is in need uf rain, and a
shortage in yield is threatened. In Min
nesota corn is looking well but is beg inning
to feel the effect of the drought.
