WAR REVENUE TAX,


In a suit brought by the Manufacturers
Association before Judge Tuley of Chicago
sitting in the state circuit court, to test the
r1sht OF the express companies to compel
the public to pay the war revenue tax of
L cent for shipment, a decision has been
rendered that the companies must accept
packages for shipment with the receipt
duly stamped by themselves and without
adding the cost of the stamp to the reg
ular express rate. An appeal is to be taken
from this decision.
1t is contended on the part of the express
companies that ''it was not the intent of
Congress, in imposing a stamp tax on bills
of lading and express company receipts,
that the railroad and express companies
should pay the whole tax and not pass any
part OF 1t along to their customers If
Judge Tuley's decision is sound" say the
companies. then the beer brewers and
whisky distillers and the tobacco men have
been violating the law for tnirty-riye years
in collecting the costs of the internal rev.
enue stamps on their products from the
consumers or purchasers of their goods"
IF this Judgment is sound" said q local
express man today, then the owners of
productive real estate have been violating
state law from time out of mind in Under
taking 10 add the state property taxes on
their tenements and business blocks to the
V.
Then, too. the domestic importers of dutia-
bic goods have been Violating federal laws
from the beginning in seeking to pass along
the customs dues collected from them by
the government to the buyers and consum-
ers of the goods.
The Merchants Association of New
York and the Manufacturers Association
of Illinois say 1t was the intent of Congress
that the express companies should bear the
whole stamp tax on receipts without in
creasing their charges; but is It any more
the intent of the law that the express COM
panies shall pay the tax than that the law
yer who draws up legal instrument shall
pay the cost of stamping it, or that the
banks shall stamp checks out of their own
pockets, or that the increased tax ON cigars
shall not in any event increase the price to
consumers, or that the extra dollar barrel
on beer shall not in any event increase the
amount of foam in the retail glass of beer
OF reduce the size of the mug?
And if this were the intention Of Con-
gress ii could never be enforced. All the
law within reach of that body could not
prevent aa express company or other con-
Germ in similar position from passing
along the tax 20 the consumer in one way
or another, either through increased
charges or reduced accommoda tions or in
some other MANNER

THE CAPITOL FIRE.
The Loss Was More Apparent Than
 Real

Washington, Nov. 1.-The big cap- itol building was a scene of wreck and desolation today following the ex- plosion and fire which wrought such serious havoc last night The en- zines and firsmen had gone and in their places a small army CI workmen was carrying off the debris of brick and mortar, charred woodwork, soaked and half burned official papers and documents which had been heaped in confusion in the basement and sub basement under the quarters occupied by the United States supreme court.
 An examination of She court room showed that the damage was confined to discolored walls and ceilings and soaked carpets No substantial dam age had been done. The rooms be- heath occupied by the justices were un- injured and even briefs and papers left by some of the justices under paper weights rsmained undisturbed. But while the fire had made no progress here, some smoke and water had left this chamber, which has long been re- garded as a model of classic beauty, in a sorry condition.
 The windows and sashes of the old colonial windows fanking the bench
  which recently had been done over, are blurred and spotted, the carpets and draperies are soaked, while the whole chamber has the damp, smoked aspect usually following 9 fire. The personal effects of justices, robes, etc.. were found to be uninjured. The main loss of the court was in the marshals office and in the storage room where valuable old records are kept. The extent of this last loss is not yet ex- actly determined, bus court officials exrect to make 9 critical examination during the day.
 An examination Of the meter room where the gas supplied to the capitol is measured, showed thai the big meter had been blown to pieces. This satisfied the capitol officers that the gas explosion was responsible for the damage, but they would not express this view openly until official inquiry is made.
