MISTAKEN IMPRESSION.


WAsmgeToN, April rs. The prevail
ing opinion among manufacturers of
cigars, tobacco, cigarettes ana SNUFF
and brewers, that in the event Of Egf
there win be an increase in the inter
nal revenue taxes levied upon their
products, it is said at Che treasury
department, undoubtedly will be verb
fed The impression, however that by
purchasing stamps at the rate of tax
nov levied, afixing them to goods and
getting the same removed from the
factory premises Of manufacturers
the manufacturers or their Gus
toners will reap a very de-
ctded profit when the tax
is advanced by being able to add the
same to the price Of such goods is en-
roneous, The law, it is stated, will
contain a special provision which viii
result in the increase in tax being coll
leeted from all wholesale and retail
dealers in whose hands these products
may be found when the law goes into
effect.
