STAMP TAX A NUISANCE

Business men here are in something
of quandary. The war revenue act,
which went into effect yesterday, pro-
vides for stamp tax on checks, drafts,
notes, and legal documents. and un-
less properly stamped, such papers are
null and void. The law further pro-
sides that any person who shall make,
sign or issue, or cause to be made. sign
ed or issued any paper or document,
which is taxed under the act, without
properly stamping it, shall be deemed
guilty of misdemeanor and fined not
more than 300; and for the same Of
fense applied to check, draft, bill Of
exchange, order to pay, or note, the
maximum fine is 5000.
The trouble is that these stamps are
obtainable only from U. S. Internal
Revenue Collectors and from banks. As
there are neither in Ely, no stamps
have yet been received here, but we
understand that our merchants, w. B.
Graham and VIM. Hayes, have tele-
phoned to the Eureka County Bank
for a supply, and they are expected to-
morrow.

Terrible SIauqh-
ter at Santiago.
One Thousand Americans
Reported Killed and

SIBoNEY, July 2.-Fighting was
continued until 9 o'clock last night.
The American losses were heavy. about
1000 killed and wounded. The heights
of San Juan and Ell Caney were taken
and the way is now cleared for the ad-
vance on Moro. San Juan was found
to be the strongest outpost, being a
steep hill fortified by artillery, and was
finally taken only with fearful loss OF
life. The American troops encountered
barbed wire fences s #. high, which
caused them great difficulty. General
Pando has succeeded in entering Santi-
ago with reinforcements Of about 5000.
Gen. Shafter last night asked for anoth-
er hospital ship and 40 more surgeons.
WASHINGTON, July 2.-The War
Department at ll:45 A. NJ. had received
no information that the fight was re-
newed to-day, but it is generally believ-
ed that it was.
A later dispatch from Kingston, ia
maica, says: At an early hour this
morning the vessels of Admiral Samp-
sons fleet took a position before the
forts of Santiago, and at 1918 the army
signaled that it was ready to renew the
battle, the firing was then commenced
by both the land and naval forces.
MoNTEGo, JAM July "A mes
sage from the insurgents near Manza-
Milo, says that the reinforcements
which left Manzanillo for Santiago
June %, we're turned back by General
Pando.
WASHINGTON, July up to 2:3O
this p. NJ, nothing further had been re-
ceiyed from Gen. Shafter. 1t is believed
that the battle is now progressing and
the General has no time to give details.
MADRID, July 2.-Blanco telegraphs
from Havana that he knew nothing OF
the reinforcements that started from
Manzanillo to Santiago.
LATER.-A dispatch was received
from Gen. Linares at Santiago saying
that nothing is known Of the reinforce
ments from Manzanillo.
OFF SANTIAGO, July 2.-The Suanee
demolished Spanish flagstaff yester-
day at 1900 yards in three shots.
