Washington, Dec. 4. - In his annual
report to the secretary of the treasury,
Mr.. Forman, the commissioner of in
ternal revenue, estimates that the re
ceipts from all sources for the current

100000, an increase over 1897 of about
ss.3o0,0OO. The cost Of the collection of
the revenue during the last fiscal year
was 3,s4s, 400.
During the year 2,24i illicit stills were
destroyed and 80 were removed; $50 per-
sons were arrested, one killed and three
were wounded. OF the stills seized and
destroyed POS were located in Ala
bama, Sal in Georgia. 400 in North
Carolina, 100 in South Carolina, and 24j
in the Sixth Virginia district. During
the last ten years ten officers were
killed and IS were wounded by moon
sinners. The commissioner recon-
mends that the expense of storing spir-
its in general bonded warehouses I've
borne by the owners of the spirits, such
change to be levied by means of a stamp
