ing a stamp on each check in the banking business, some bankers de- cided to adopt the plan in use at the Cleveland society of savings, of not using checks, but of noting each with drawal of funds in the depositOr's passbook. The revenue law made a plain provision for such people as tried by artifice to evade the payment of the taxes levied. Collector Kellogg said the change from checks to pass books at the time the law went into effect was an evasion and he notified the banks to conform to the law. They carried the matter to the com missioners and yesterday a lengthy opinion was received from the depart. ment It says that such banks as had been using the passbook system could be allowed to continue, but such banks as adopted it at the time the law went into effect were clearly guilty of an evasion and would have to use the stamps. The law affects sav- ings banks and associations mostly, as the usual run of banking business makes the passbook system wholly impracticable.

GERMANY MAY APOLOGIZE
Action o, kaiSerin Augusta Causing
 comment.

Washington, Aug. 21.-The action of the German war vessel, Kaiserin Au- gusta, in carrying off Augustin, captain general Of the Spanish Philippine forces, to a place of safety iE Hong Kong. and about which there is but lar incident which occurred during the civil war, one which nearly led to a breach with Great Britain.
 It happened when the famous armed cruiser Alabama, the most valuable and effective of all the vessels of the confederates, after a two years cruise Of destruction among the merchant vessels of the north, was sent to the bottom of the sea by the Rear sarge off the French shore near Cher bourg, in 1864 After a fierce engage ment lasting an hour and twenty min utes, the Alabama was found to be in a sinking condition, and struck her flag. The shore of France, which was but a half dozen miles away, was lined with thousands of people, and on the water was a number of craft among them the English yacht Deerhound This vessel, with the consent of Cap tain Winslow, who was in command of the Kearsarge, engaged in picking up the crew of the Alabama, and among those thus rescued were Captain Rap hael Semmes and other officers of the Alabama. Instead of turning them over to the Kearsarge, the Deerhound made off for the Englsh coast, to South ampton. Captain Winslow was inn plOred by his officers to send a shell into the flying yacht, but refused.
 When the report of the fight reach ed the authorities at Washington, great indignation was expressed, and President Lincoln demanded an expla nation from Great Britain. It was conceded to be violation of neutrality and the incident was only finally closed upon the receipt of a full apology from the British government The officers of the Alabama had left England in the meantime or they would have been turned over to the United States government.

Madrid, Aug. 21.-In the course of an interview had last night with a member of the cabinet by a represent ative of the Associated Press, the mi;.- ister said England had presented a Eote to Spain asking for aE explana- tion on the subject of Notifications be- ing erected by Spain near Gibraltar, which, the note declares, are uujusti- fled in view of the good relations ex- isting between the two countries.
 Spain is absolutely quiet. Don Car los has given his partisans strict or ders not to commit acts of rebellion, while divisions among the republicans render that party powerless.

to confer with the president on that subject.
 Senator Allison, who is looking re- markedly well, said he would not leave the city at once. This is construed by
 many to mean that he is still unde- cided as to the peace commission. Senator Allison has much work ahead of him before congress meets.
 He is on several special committees. and these will have work to do soon. It is not the belief in administration circles that the peace com mission will conclude treaty of peace before some time in November, and it Is among tho probabilities that the commission win still be at work when congress meets.
 The positive statement can be made
 this afternoon that Senator Allison will not serve on the peace commis- sion- Notwithstanding the general re-
 ticence on the situation, it is known that the Iowa senator told the presi- dent that owing to a multitude Of du- ties he would not be able to accept the honor offered him. The president expressed his regret at the senator's declination.

Though the wolf be at your door.
Always feel that YOU are safe.
Know there's one both good and true.
You can mock callous world.
While your mother sticks TO you.
Though by friends YOU are beref,
And no sunshine fills your lite,
Think then how your mother loves you
How she shields you from all strife,
How she fondled you in childhood,
Pow her heart doth yearn for you,
Never mind the storms which gather,
While your mother sticks 20 you.
Ruin may stare you in the face.
Stumbling blocks I'll up your way,
But the light will shine At last.

Baltimore Sun: The only cotton
mil! in the country, it is claimed,
owned exclusively by colored people, is
now approaching completion at Con-
cord, N. c., and the last brick will be
laid before the close of the present
year. The mill is to have from 1000
to 10000 spindles and from $50 to ESQ
looms. The building is handsome
three-story brick structure, 120 feet
long and 80 feet wide. Besides the
main building there are also engine and
boiler houses and a tower for water
purposes. 1t is expected the mill will
be put in operation by the LIST of April.
The colored people of Wilmington
alone have put $4,000 in the mill. which
promises to be monument to the en-
terprise and thrift of the colored peo-
pie Of the old north state.

getting Out Of Debt.-

Perhaps the most attractive feature
OF the sound money theory is the
proposal to get this country out Of
debt"
How do the able financiers of the
Republican party propose to get this
nation out of debt? Simply by redeem
Ing all Of its non-interest-b bearing notes
with interest-bearing obligations. The
theory is beautiful in its ingenious
simplicity.
What would be thought Of the tusi
ness ability of a merchant who. having
creditors perfectly satisfied with his
notes of hand, bearing no interest
should say: Gentlemen, it is trre
you are finding no fault with nv notes
and are, indeed, anxious to get more
OF them, although they bear no inter
est, yet l have resolved to call all of
those notes in and to give you interest
bearing paper, which agree to redeem
or which my children or great grand
children will redeem in gold?"
Such a course of conduct would h.
considered foolish, unnecessary and
unbuslnesslike. But it is exactly such
course as that which is advocated
by the gold clique, who wish to retire
government paper by refunding it in
interest bearing gold bonds.
Every dollar Of United States money
is just as good for all purposes in
this country as every other dollar. and
100 cents in gold will buy no more
than 100 cents in silver, or in paper.
Who is it, then who wants gold? The
man who deals in money alone. the
gold Spectator. the exporter and the
bondholder.
These are the men who have evo1red
the brilliant theory of paying debt
by making it larger-Chicago Dis
