Secretary Carlisle on tho Rsimportation
of Liquors.
Washington, Oct. 2.-Secretary Car
Isle has rendered a decision on the
question of the proper duty to be as
sessed upon reimported domestic spir-
Its. The secretary holds that such
spirits withdraw from bond after tile
date upon which the new traffic act
went into effect, August %, is subject
to a duty equal to the internal rev.
enue tax imposed by that act, namely
$1.1O per gallon. The contention of
the importers was that the duty AS.
sessed should equal the rate Of in
ternal revenue tax In force at tho
date of reimportation which In this
particular case was 90 cents per gal
Ion. The secretary comedies that II
the duty had been paid at the time
of importation, which was prior 10
August %, the duty would have been
imposed according to the rate of In
ternal revenue tax existing Mt that
time. 1t IL learned that this decision
will affect very large quantities o.
spirits which were exported just prior
to the expiration of the three year
bonded period, and subsequently I'M
ported ih order to take advantage O.!
the bonded period permitted by the
law.

ROB A SOUTHERN PACIFIC
TRAIN.
Twenty Thousand Dollars Said to Have
Been Obtained without Firing q Shot.
Two sherIns In Hot Pursuit.

Denver, Oct. IA special dispatch
from Phoenix to the Times-Sun says:
At 1915 this afternoon the east
bound Southern Pacific passenger train
was held up one and a half miles east
of Maricopa, by three men. One of
the robbers rode on the blind baggage
out of Maricopa, while the other two
tagged the train. AS 1t Stacked mp
the fellow aboard passed quickly into
the engine cab, and at the point OF
two revolvers forced Engineer liolli-
day and Fireman Martin to descend,
uncouple the engine and proceed ahead
of the train for half or tllree quarters
of a mile.
In the meantime one masked robbe-
had entered the express car. while
the other stood guard outside. No shots
were fired, nor were the passengers
alarmed while the robbery was In
progress. The engineer and fireman
were walked back ahead of robber No.
to the express car. They arrived
about the time the other two were
ready to depart All three then mount
ed horses, which were tied near ny,
and struck out In southerly direc-
ton, toward the Mexican line, which
is so miles from the track. The amount
which the Wells Fargo messenger r"-
ports as having been captured is $lGO.
but there Is n current report that the
robbers got away with $4,000 in gold.
Their trail was struck early this
afternoon by Sheriff Drais of Pinal aud
Murphy Of Maricopa, accompanied Try
Deputies Widemer and Prothero.
