WAR LOAN SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Offers Will Probably Reach the Grand
Total of $1,25O,OOOOOO.

WASHINGTON, July 12-The subscrip-
tons to the new war loan will close at 3
o'clock next Thursday afternoon. Up to
this time both the number of subscriptions
received and the aggregate amount sub
scribed for far exceed all estimates Yester-
day the number of subscriptions was about
2l,0O0 for the day, and the total sum sub
scribed for reached the aggregate of 1920 600.
Those for $500 and under to date are for
about $65,CC0C00, and it is expected that it
will approximate $75 100000 by clock on
the 14th inst. The subscriptions for sums
exceeding $500 already aggregate 1891, 900 900,
and 1t is expected that at the time of clos
ing they will have reached $445, 600 900, MAX
ing the grand total, including the large
blanket bids, over billion and a quarter
of dollars. Offers for large amounts are
still coming in rapidly, two $1,000 coo appl-
cations having been received yesterday. AL
though the hurry of receiving and schedul-
ing the offers has prevented the officials
from making any accurate computati ons,
1t is known that the individual subscrip-
tons are far in excess of the whole loan,
and therefore Assistant Secretary Wander
lip will direct that, beginning next Thurs
day evening, all subscriptions from firms
and corporations be Immediately returned
to the senders with the checks which ac-
oompanied them. This class of subscrip-
tons alone now aggregates about SIPS, 600 900.

MUST AFFIX THE STAMPS
ALL COMMON CARRIERS MAY BE
FORCED TO PAY THE TAN.
Another Internal Revenue Ruling
That Affects Express COmpanies-
Total War Loan subscriptions.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-In answer to
references from the commissioner of inter-
nal revenue, all bearing on the question as
to whether the shipper or carrier shall pay
for and affix the required revenue stamp to
bills of lading. ETC., Assistant Attorney
General Boyd has held as follows:
THE law makes it the duty of every rail-
road and steamboat company, carrier, eX-
press company or corporation, or persons
issue to the shipper, consignor or his agent
or person from whom any goods are ac-
cepted for transportation a bill of lading,
manifest or some other evidence of the re-
ceipt of goods, wares or merchandise re-
ceived for carriage and transportation. and
this bill of lading, manifest or memorandum
requires a revenue stamp of the value of
of failure to issue such bill of lading, the
law imposes a penalty of $50 upon the car
rier guilty of such failure. The penalty for
failure to so affix the stamp is not more
than 500. The purpose of the law is clear.
1T was to tax the carrier and not the ship
per- and these provisions undoubtedly fix
upon the express companies and other car
rlers the duty of providing, affixing and
canoeing the stamp, and their failure to so
provide, affix and cancel such stamp. SUBJ
Jects them to the penalties provided by law.
1t is suggested that some of these carriers
are refusing to receive goods for shipment
until the shipper pays the tax. While it is
not my province to advise as to the re-
course which the shipper may have in in
stances of this kind. yet / am sure that
the laws are ample to require public car
riers and express companies to receive goods
rendered for shipment or suffer damages for
such refusal"

When you are preparing your boy for the
