ADHESIVE STAMP ACT.

Every Possible Effort Making to Put 1t
in Operation on July 1.
Washington, June %. Every possible
effort is being made by the secretary
of the treasury to put into operation
on July the adhesive stamp tax section
of the war revenue act 1t Is not
thought possible, however, to have
stamps on sale in all parts of the
country on that date and in conse-
quence it is expected that for several
days at least business endorsements
will be many and in some instances
serious. The law declares 1t shall be
misdemeanor not to affix stamp
to any bank check not, draft, ETC.,
punishable by fine not exceeding $780,
The law further declares that such fur
Their unstamped instrument, document
or paper, shall not be competent evil
dence in any court, in fact void The
force of the bureau of engraving and
printing is working every hour Of the
twenty-four to get out the stamps and
efforts will be made to reduce to a
minimum embarrassrnents arising out
of the new law About 100000 stamps
will be shipped to the Pacific coast to-
day and other shipments will follow in
rapid succession. The stamps will be
sent to collectors of internal revenue
and by them distributed to the depu-
ties, national banks in each town will
receive Geographic requests to handle
stamps for the benefit of the public
until other arrangements can be made
for their distribution. The low rate Of
discount, l per cent, allowed to persons
purchasing stamps in quantities of 800
it is believed will operate to make it
difficult to secure a sufficient number
of local agencies to supply the public
needs, but special appeals will be
made and the hope is expressed that
there will be found in every community
a sufficient number of public spirited
citizens to undertake to handle the
stamps without proper compensation.

TAX ON MESSAGES.

Each Telephone Hello Hereafter Will
Cost Cent More.
The collection of the internal revenue
tax on telephone messages, which goes
into effect with other special taxes on
July 1, will, according to the law, be
based on the faith of the government
in the telephone companies. A clause
in Schedule A provides that it shall be
the duty of every person, firm or cor
poration owning or operating a tele-
phone line to make, within the first
fifteen days of each month, a sworn
statement to the collector of internal
revenue in each of their respective dis
tricts, stating the number of messages
or conversation transmitted during the
preceding month, for which a charge
of fifteen cents or more was imposed
and for each of such messages or con-
versations the said firm must pay one
cent.

The Man Who Shot Count Won Arec-
Volley of Germany Embassy.
London, June 22.--In the Bow street
police court to-day, John Trodd, who
shot Count Won Arec-Volley, the first
secretary of the German ambassador
here, as the latter was emerging from
the embassy on the evening of June IS,
was committed for trial. Trodd made
a rambling statement to the effect that
the German, American and French ma
tions had hypnotically influenced him
and pestered him with accusations. He
was not sure, he said, whether irish
Americans were not also guilty of ac-
cusations started some years ago by
United States Consul General Patrick
A. Collins. who was supported by Ger
mans, the latter being among his first
aceusers. As the home office had re-
fused to assist him he said he thought
he would be justified in taking the law
into his own hands, which, he added,
would be a lesson to Germans not to
interfere with the English.

The rates are lower than under the
old law, when the stamp for the bank
check was five cents. The penalty for
failure Of maker to affix stamp may
be 500, at the discretion of the court.
All stamps must be cancelled by the
person aff1xing them.

The Supreme Court Refuses TO En-
tertain the Petition of Suffer
For a Writ Maadamus Against Controller
Of State COIgan.
Counties Must Press Their Claims
for Disputed Fees in the Supe-
rior Courts, and Have the Cases
Go Regularly Before the Higher
Tribunal on Appeals.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 1.-THE
Supreme Court to-day refused to grant
a writ of mandamus on behalf of Suit
ter County against State Controller +.
p. Colgan, on the ground that the mat
ter was not of sufficiently pressing i'm
portance. The writ was asked for in
order to obtain an early decision from
the Court on the legality of the de-
mand of county officials for fees aggre-
eating 81, 100000 for collecting State
taxes since 1893.
The various counties will now have
to press their claims for the disputed
fees in the Superior Courts, and have
the cases go regularly before the Su-
preme Court on appeals. In forty-four
counties such suits already have been
brought. An effort is to be made to
have an agreed case submitted to the
Sacramento Superior Court, and then
have it go to the Supreme Court on
appeal By this means it is expected
a decision will be expedited.
Some of the counties are paying
over their quota of State taxes, on a
promise from Controller Colgan that
they will be fully protected in the mat
ter of fees if the forthcoming litigation
goes against the State.
The Controller says the State may be
short of funds if the money now held
by the counties is not soon turned over
to the State Treasurer.

A Drunken Soldier Shot and Killed
by a Street Car Conductor,

MACON (Ga.), Dec. 22.-Private Tur-
ner of the Sixth Virginia Volunteer
Regiment was shot and almost instantly
killed by 0. A. Thrower, a street car
conductor, this afternoon.
Turner, very drunk, boarded Throw
er's car, and used vile language in the
presence of ladies. ThrOWer pulled nim
out of the car to the rear platform.
While Thrower was assisting a lady off
the car the negro kicked him several
times and applied more vile epithets.
Turner then went back on the trailer,
but soon returned with a knife in his
hand, and swore he would cut Throw
er's head Off AS he stepped on the
platform Thrower fired, the bullet strik-
ing the negro in the mouth He lived
fifteen minutes. A crowd of negro SOL
diers and civilians soon gathered and
swore vengeance on Thrower and all
the street car conductors. One con-
ductor was chased several blocks by the
negroes.
Guards have been placed on ali cars
on the line leading to the negro camps,
and to-nfghuH It heqcamp is under strong
guard, to prevent an outbreak on the
part of the negro soldiers.

The death rate from bronchitis and

Of the recent deaths from pneumonia

Furthermore, physicians say that the
prevalence of the grippe, with the con-

During the last four days, according

THE RECORD-UNION PROPOSE
TION.
Los Angeles Express: 1t is set forth
that the cost of grain crop seeding In
California is $3,Q00,000 annually, and
that l per cent, of that cost will de-
termine after eighteen months obser-
vations along the Japan current wheth-
er we will have early or late, wet or
dry. hot or cold seasons. This informa-
ton may be available several months
ahead SO that all preparations may be
made accordingly.
If such thing is possible the ex-
pense of the observations would be a
mere bagatelle. All lines of business
and industry and investing capital
would profit by the knowledge, either
directly or indirectly. It would mean
millions saved or earned for California.
The Record Union urges that the
LEGISLATURE place at the disposal of
the Regents of the University of Cali
fornia the sum of $4,000 to inaugurate
a broad and thorough investigation
into the great problems of the rainfall
and water supply of the State
1t is not likely that the money would
be wasted or spent in vain, even If the
Japan current refused to give up its
mystery.
NOT A DANGEROUS PRECEDENT.
San Diego Union: In view of the
extraordinary service rendered by Miss
wounded soldiers, one would suppose
that no objection could possibly be
made to the vote of thanks and gold
medal which General Wheeler moved
in the House Immediately after Con-
gress met. 1t appears, however, that
some members are a little timid about
passing the resolution. The vote of
thanks carries with it the privilege of
the floor of Congress, and the objecting
members seem to think that this will
be establishing a dangerous precedent,
because no woman has yet had that
privilege given her. It would appear
that fears on this score are not well
founded Miss Gould is not likely to
intrude herself where she is not want
ed. But if she were to take advantage
of the privilege of the floor her pres
ence would not harm the. Congress
men. Many Of them might be better
men for making her acquaintance.
