INTERNAL REVENUE RULINGS.
Stamping of Tickets for Passage OI
VesseIs-Leased Wires.

Stamping of Tickets for Passage on
VesseIs-Leased Wires.
WASHINGTON, July Ain reply to num-
erous inquiries in regard to the stamping
Of tickets for passage on vessels to foreign
or other American ports the commissioner Of
internal revenue has held as follows:
"First-Tickets sold, dated and issued
prior to July /, 1898. though for passage on
vessels sailing after that date are not sub
lect to the stamp tax contemplated by
Schedule A, Of the act of June IL, 1898.
Second-Tickets issued in the United
States for passage on a vessel not sailing
from any port OF the o United f Staites' 6q5
are not subject to stamp tax Under this
statute.
"Third-Tickets issued in Canada for pas
sage on vessels sailing from a United States
port are not subject to stamp tax under
Schedule A.
"Fourth-The only passage ticket for
which stamp tax is required to be paid by
this statute is a ticket issued for transporta-
port in the United States to foreign port
When, therefore, to such passenger ticket
there is attached another ticket emitting the
passenger, after his arrival at the foreign
port, 10 transportation to various points IN
Europe or elsewhere, such additional ticket
is rot subject to the stamp tax.
''Fifth-The stamp tax for passenger ticket
may be affixed thereto and Cancelled at the
pier before the passenger boards the vessel.
''Sixth--W here one passenger ticket is is
sued, even though ii contains several names,
but one stamp tax is required to be paid
"Seventh--There is no exemption from the
stamp tax on charity tickets issued at low
rates.
waite telegraph wire between its New York
and Philadelphia offices, which wire is used
only for the private use of the company, is
not required to pay stamp taxes on mes

MAY VOTE THIS WEEK.
Friends of Hawaiian Annexation
Think the Debate Will Soon End.

WASHINGTON, July 2.-There is a pre-
vaiiing opinion in the Senate that a vote
will be reached on the Hawaiian annexation
resolutions some time during the coming
week. Some shrewd observers fixed Satur-
day of next week as the day. while the
more sanguine talk of the middle of the
week. The opponents of the resolutions say
that vote is impossible next week, and
say that at the inside limit the debate will
run a week from next Wednesday. The
contest seems to have settled down to this
situation; If the friends of annexation are
able to maintain a quorum until the end
of the week, it is probable that the OPP
ponents will consider further opposition of
a filibusteTing nature and some arrange
ments for a vote will be reached. The first
admission of any kind by the opposition
that the end was in sight was a partial as
sent to the suggestion that vote might be
reached after ten days debate. 1t has been
believed by the opposition that after the APP
preparation bills were passed that a quorum
could not be maintained. These bills are
practically out of the way now, as the de-
ficiency bill will probably pass Tuesday.
Next week will determine the staying pow
ers Of the anneXationistS. When it is dem
onstrated that quorum will stay, then it
is expected the opposition will yield and a
vote be taken.

GENERAL DEFICIENCY BILL.
Agreement Reached on Everything
Except Pacific Railway Item.

WASHINGTON. July 2.-The conferees
on the general deficiency bill reached an
agreement to-day on everything except the
Pacific railroad amendment. Chairman
Cannon had promised a vote in the House
on this matter before any agreement was
made. The principal items of agreement
which remain in the bill are: The Canadian
commission; relating to the compensation
Of gaugers of spirits; relating to the govern
ment of soldiers homes; to pay forest in
spectors 500 ,0O0 payment of boards of town
site entries in Oklahoma; to pay the ST..
Louis & San Francisco Railroad Company
amounts enormously deducted for transpor
tation, $36, 222, and the Mobile & Ohio Rail-
road such sums as shall be found due. All
Senate amendments for the war and navy
are retained in the bill; also, all certified
claims. The Senate amendment appropriate
ing $145,000 for the purchase of land adjacent
to and dredging the entrance of Pearl har
Dor was eliminated. The impression is that
