INTERNAL REVENUE,
Facts From the Annual Report of the
COmmi Missioner

The annual report of the Commissioner of
the internal revenue bureau shows the re-
cetpts for the fiscal year ended June 30
1896. to have been $146 S3O.615. The cost of
collecting the revenue amounted to 4aS6.-
22 Tie estimated receipts from all
sources during the current fiscal year are
$l5O,OO0OO0. In speaking of the general
condition of the office and the service the
commissioner said:
The work Of the bureau, both in the
office and in the field. is in good condition.
and 1t affords me very great pleasure to
commend the efficiency. industry and COM
retency of the officers, clerks ard employees
in the several branches of the service I'm
der these conditions the result has been a
prompt and accurate disposal of all the
business of the bureau up to date. I desire
to call special attention to the marked I'M
provement of the service in the field since
the classification of the civil service law Of
the various employees in that branch of the
service. This is especially noticeable in
those districts in which there has been a
disposition on the part of subordinate en-
ployes to enter into collusion with persons
engaged in the Illicit manufacture and sale
o. distilled spirits. Under the old order Of
things the subordinate employe looked for
ward to nothing better than his employ
ment at a small compensation during the
period OF his assignment to duty at a dis
tillery. AS a result he frequently became
careless in the discharge of his duties and
in some cases, sought to increase his in
come by actual collusion with the distiller
to whose premises he was assigned. such
collusion having for its object the defraud-
ing the government of its revenues.
Under the present conditions the employe
has learned that a serious infraction of his
duty renders him liable to peremptory dis
missal from the service. and that without
any hope of unemployment. He mas also
learned that strict compliance on his part
with the law and regulations will place
him in the line of promotion and enable
him to be advanced to the higher grades Of
the service.
In the districts referred to the improved
condition of the service is evidenced by the
greatly decreased number of complaints
filed with this office. and also by the large
ly increased receipts from penalties i'm
posed for violations of the law and regula-
tions."
The commissioner recommends that the
statute relating to general bonded ware
houses be SO amended as to limit the priv
Hege of storage in these warehouses TO such
spirits as may be approved by his office
and, further that provision be made for a
charge of not less than 25 cents each for
the general bonded warehouse stamps AMI
rewarehousing stamps

THE NAVAL RESERVE
A Monitor Likely to Be Stationed Here
for It.
Congress Asked to Give Legal Status
to a Body Of 400 Naval
Militia mem.

The Naval Reserve Battalion OF the Dis
trict of Columbia. for which provision has
been made in bills introduced In :he Sen
ate by Senator Hale of Maine and in the
House by Mr.. Robinson of Pennsylvania, is
now taking substantial form as an organi-
cation supplemental to that OF the National
Guard OF the District, and enlistments have
now reached about seventy-five. This
evening at O'Clock meeting will be held
In Washington Hall, corner Of Pennsylva-
MIA avenue and Sd street southeast, at
which crews will be organized and COM
pleted for the purpose of drills 1t is ex-
pected that a drill hall will be provided In
the navy yard, where regular meetings will
be held in the future. and which will con-
sttute the Headquarters of the battalion.
The pret tent enlistment consists aim )st
entirely OF men who have at some time
served in The navy. The aim is to form a
battalion OF four companies. each of which
snail conts In 100 men, counting blue jack
cts and officers The organization will be
on the sane footing legally as the National
Guard.
As soon as the necessary legislation is
secured. tie battalion will be fully housed
ana equipped. At present Secretary Her
bert mas detailed Lieut. Brotherinrton to
drill the men. and the drill room over the
Doat mouse at the navy yard has been as
signed TO them as quarters. This room is
''"No'' anu dipie ior present use. In fu-
ture. when the full quota of enl,stments
are made. other and larger quarters will
be secured Boats will be furnished as we'll
as uniforms. arms and various accouter-
ments and probably a monitor will be sta.
toned here for headquarters for the bat
TALON. The object Is to engage a water
arm of the National Guard and drill a body
or men capable OF taking a ship to sea at
snort notice, or in case of hostile attack on
Washington, of defending the city by tor
pedo works, or by mines. The naval re-
serve appropriation every year provides
$oo.0oo for equipping and maintaining SINH
lar battalionS in the various states. There
are already about ten states provided with
a naval militia. among them Massachusetts,
Connecticut Maine, New York, Pennsyl-
Vania. Maryland and South Carolina The
peculiar hazard Of the nations capital in
time of war gives special emphasis and sup
port to the idea.
