the War Revenue Law.


WASHINGTON, June 26.-The commits
sioner of internal revenue has made an i'm
portant ruling relating to the construction
to be given to that portion of the new war

lieu thereof each new certificate thereupon
issued is. within the meaning of the act,
an original ISSUE" on which the tax must
be paid. In case of sale, where the evil
dence Of transfer is shown only by the books
OF the company, a tax of cents is re-
quired to be paid on each $1O0 of face value
or fraction thereof. and the stamp repre-
senting this Is required TO be placed upon
such books. Where the change of owner
ship is by transfer certificate-that is to
say, the executed authority to transfer is
contained on the back of the stock which
- 10 be transferred-the stamp must be
placed upon the transfer certificates; that is
upon the surrendered certificate containing
the transfer In cases of agreement with
the seller, where the transfer is by delivery
or the certificate assigned in blank, there

suit would be that one certificate would be
issued for the ten shares sold, and also an

of the most bitterly fought battle in it's his

for the report of the nominating commit

money thus gained purchase eggs, milk and

WASHINGTON. June 26.-Some annoy
ance has been caused the President by
statements concerning his plans for the
summer. Secretary Porter announced to-
night that the President not only had no
plans as yet for the summer, but had not
even considered any. So long as the situa-
tioE in Cuba continues critical. it is said to
be the Presidents intention to remain in
Washington, where he can direct better the
operations of the war than he could at any
other point. Despite the tremendous strain
which he is undergoing the President is in
excellent health. The construction of the
executive mansion renders 1t a pleasant
residence even in the hottest of weather
and President Mckinley has announced his
purpose to remain here throughout the sum-
mer If his official duties can be better
performed here than elsewhere.

Pirated sheet Music to Be Burned.s

WASHINGTON, June 26.-Postmaster,
General Emory Smith has issued an order
changing the postal regulations in regard to
sheet music illegally sent into this country.
Canadian music publishers sometimes pi-
rate music copyrighted in the United States
and then send it through the mails into the
United States for sale. When such music
has been discovered by the postal authori-
ties here it has been held for three months
and if the owner of the copyright did not
institute proceedings for its forfeiture it
was returned to the sender, who generally
again sent it through the mails and after
repeated attempts often succeeded in putt
ting it upon the market. Under the order
issued to-day the music, If not claimed by
the holder OF the copyright, will be destroy
ed at the end of three months. This order is
based upon an opinion recently rendered
by the attorney general. Music upon which
a duty should be paid will be sent to the
nearest collector of customs
