WHAT is A CIRCUsl
Comptroller Finley Wants
Every Circus Taxed Ac-
cording to Law.

sued the following circular let
ter to tax-eollectors of the state.
OFFICE OF CoMPTRoLLER. J
AUSTIN, TEXAS, MARCH IL, 1895
To Tax Collectors:
Tn view Of the fact that some
confusion seems to exist among
collectors as to what constitutes
a "circus,'" you are respectfully
advised as follows:
The occupation tax law of
1889, page 26, provides for the
collection Of an occupation tax
for the State "for every circus
where equestrian or acrobatic
feats and performances are ex-
hibited for which pay for adj
mission is demanded or receiv-
ed, for each performance there
of fifty dollars, Notwithstanding
more than one such performance
may take place daily"
The statute above referred to
contemplates the meaning Of
the word circus" in its general
accepted sense asused through
out the State; and while eques-
trian performances in sense are
generally a feature of a circus,
they are not a necessary" fea-
ture-
The word ferrous" as used in
the statute evidently contem-
plates a performance with the
usual elements of a circus, such
as a tent, and a ring or place
wherein equestrian feats are
performed and where acrobatic
feats and performances are ex-
hibited and horses and riders,
or trained horses make their
although they may
be an absence of what is usual
ly termed equestrian feats, in a
strict sense of that term.
This department must neces-
sarily rely largely upon the
Judgment and discretion of the
collectors, as they are on the
ground and know the facts and
conditions, and it is confidently
believed that you will not per-
nit any attempted evasion or
subterfuge to prevent collection
IF the proper occupation tax.
Very Respectfully,

LOAN CERTIFICATES.
Prompt Action of the Clearing
House and It's Good Effect.

Prompt Action oil the SIearlhS
House and It's Good Effect.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.A meeting OF
the Clearing House association today
decided to give the committee author
ity to issue clearing house loan certifl-
Gates to an unlimited amount The
certificates will be issued at 6 per cent
and a commission of 1 1-16 per cent.
No applications for certificates have
been received from any of the banks.
The scheme of clearing house certif-
Gates, which originated in the panic
of 1878 and was adopted in the panics
of 1884, 1890 and 1893. Is simply plan
for union between the clearing house
banks. In each case the bank needing
the certificates themselves puts up
abundant collateral, while the certifi-
Gates are the obligation of the entire
association of New York banks, max
ing them unqueStioned security. This
combination prevents the weaker bank
from being pressed and in turn ena-
bles them to deal justly with their bor-
rowers in panicky market. The
scheme, however, does not protect or
render assistance to banks that are
actually insolvent. Loan certificates
will be issued to 75 per cent of the value
of the securities. Heretofore the clear
ing house banks have acted slowly
In the issue of certificates and the COM
plaint was made that the evil had
been wrought before remedial action
was taken. The promptness of the
present action stimulated the rally in
the market and had great weight in
influencing revival of purchases of
our securities for foreign account to-
day,
