CARRIER MUST PAY IT.
INTERNAL REVENUE COMMITS
SIONERS DECISION AFFECTS
WILMINGTON SHIPPERS AND
CARRIERS.


WILMINGTON SHIPPERS AND
CARRIERS.
In answer to references from the
commissioner Of internal revenue, all
bearing upon the question as to
whether the shipper or the carrier
shall pay for and affix the required
revenue stamps to bills Of lading, etc,
Assistant Attorney-General Boyd has
held as follows:
The law makes it the duty of every
railroad, steamboat company, carrier,
express company or corporation, or
person whose occupation it is to act
as such, to issue TO the shipper, con-
signOr or his agent, or person from
whom any goods are accepted for
transportation, a bill of lading, mani
fest, or some other evidence Of the re-
ceipt Of goods received for transpOr-
tatlOn, and this bill Of lading, manifest
or memorandum, requires a revenue
stamp Of the value of / cent affixed to
It and cancelled. In case Of failure to
issue such bill of lading the law i'm
poses a penalty OF $50 upon the carrier
found guilty Of such failure. The pen
atty for failure TO so affix the stamp is
not more than 800.
The purpose of the law is clear. 1t
was to tax the carrier and not the
shipper, and these provisions undOubt-
edly fix upon the express companies
and other carriers the duty of provid-
ing, affixing and cancelling the STAMP,
and their failure to so provide, affix
and cancel such stamp subjects them to
the penalties provided by law. 1t is
suggested that some Of these carriers
are refusing to receive goods for ship
ment until the shipper pays the tax.
Whilst 1t is not province to advise as
to the recourse which the shipper may
have in instances Of this kind, yet L am
sure the laws are ample to require pub
lie carriers and express companies to
receive goods rendered for shipment or
suffer damages for such refusal"
