New Anti-Lottery Law.

In the opinion of postal officials, the anti
lottery act passed by Congress just before
adjournment will have a far-reaching effect
in suppressing lottery schemes in this
country. Its provisions are expected to
effectually prevent the conveyance Of lot
terry matter between the states or it's in
PRODUCTION here from other countries by
express companies or common carriers.
Through limitation Of jurisdiction the de-
partment has been required to transport
lottery and fraudulent matter and express
money orders for Investment in these
schemes. and yet been deprived of the
revenues from the postal money orders it
would otherwise have issued. The lottery
companies have correspondent with those
interested under seal through the mails,
and giving them instructions to use eX-

eradicated by the authority given in the
act to the Postmaster General to refuse to

using the mails to defraud any class of
mail matter, and to return it to senders

although he had no funds. He had Lawyer
Kicks as his legal adviser. The only way
out Of the difficulty, although he might get
in more serious one, was matrimony.
But the license costs 81, 'the mans coun-

"Oh, If that's the only thing in the way"
said Mr.. Mullowny, "here's the dollar"
Detective Horne went to the city hall
and soon returned with piece of paper
silver dollar. Next in order was minister.
and after g little delay, the Rev. Andrew
Jackson, pastor of Mount JeZreel Baptist
Church, appeared. His appearance was
signal for stampede in the direction OF
the prosecuting attorneys room, where

INCOME TAX RULINGS.
The Acting Internal Revenue COM
missioner as to Exemptions.

The Acting Internal Revenue Com
missioner as to Exemptions.
Acting Commissioner Wilson Of the in
ternal revenue bureau has made the fol-
lowing rulings on two important questions
concerning exemptions from the income
tax, recently submitted to the Treasury
Department by a New York collector:
First. Losses, either incurred In trade or
from bad debt, can be deducted from
gross income only when the business tran
saction. or debt, to which they refer was
actually transacted or incurred within the
year for which the return Is made. All the
losses sustained or ascertained, within the
year 1894, from business or debts tran
sacted or contracted prior to the first day
of January Of said year are not due to the
year 1884, and cannot be allowed as de-
duction in the income returns for that
year.
Second. No distinction is made in the
law between the salaries and incomes of
bishops or clergymen and by any other
persons. Therefore, all salaries and emolu-
ments, and gifts of every character and
kind, received by bishops and clergymen,
where the same in the aggregate exceeds
the sum of $500, must be returned as in
all other cases, and where the taxable
limit Is reached the excess over 81, 900 must
pay the tax of per centum.

Mr.. Morley's New Land Bill.

The chief secretary for Ireland, Mr.
John Morley, in the house of commons
yesterday corrected a statement which
he made in Introducing the new Irish
land bill on Monday last. He said
that If a landlord did not assent to the
price fixed by the land commission for a
purchase by an evicted tenant or. tenants
it was not intended that the whole trans
action should end. The government intend
ed that If a landlord did not object after
prescribed time an agreement to pur-
chase would thereby be assumed to have
been made, and in case of disagreement as
to price the land commission must de-
termine it.
