SUGAR AND WAR REVENUIf.
Person Engaged in Manufacture Not
 Subject to the Tax.

Washington, Aug. 4.-The commissioner of internal revenue today rendered de- cision in which he holds in effect that per- sons engaged in manufacturing sugar from cane and beets and who do not buy and refine other sugars are not subject to the tax imposed by the new war revenue act.
 This act provides as follows: That every person, firm, corporation or company carrying on or doing the business or refn- ing petroleum, or refining sugar or own ing or controlling any pipe line for trans porting oil or other products, whose gross! annual receipts exceed s25O,00O shall be subject to pay annually special excise tax equivalent to one quarter of one percentum on the gross amount of all receipts of such persons, firms, corporations and companies in their respective business in excess of said sum of s2500O0."
 The contention of the commissioner Is, that the law applies. only to the persons engaged in refining raw sugars, as distin- guished from those who produce the raw or unrefined sugars from cane or beets., Under this ruling practically all of the beet sugar mills of the west and the cane mills of the south are exempt from the tax who are not held to be refiners within the meaning of the law. Of this latter class there are said to be over 700 in Louisiana alone.
 The decision was rendered upon the ap- plication of the Oxnard Beet Sugar com pany who asked for ruling on this pOint.

If it is ever to return to the United States, 1t must ds.so at once" To a correspondent of the Associated Press General Ames said: "If I had the power I would put the men on the trans ports at once and ship them north with out further orders.

ROOSEVELT CALLED DOWN,
Invidious Comparison of Rough Riders
 With Other Troops Not Sanctioned.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The following cor respondence has passed be'ween Colonel Roosevelt and Secretary Alger:
 Santiago, July g. 1S9s My Dear MT. Secretary: l am writing with the knowledge and approval of Gen. eral Wheeler.
 We earnestlty hore that you will send us most of the regulars, and at any rate the cavalry division, including the Rough Riders, who are as good as any rseulars and three times as good as any state troops, to Porto Rico. There are 1,SC0 eff fective men in this division If those who were left behind were joined to them, we could land at Porto Rico, in this cavalry division, close to 40G9, who would be worth easily any 10t0) national guards armed with black powder Sprirghc ds or other weapons. Very respectfully,
 THEO. ROOSEVELT. The following reply was cabled to Co., one Roosevelt today:
 Your letter of the 23d is received. The regular army, the volunteer army and the Rough Riders have done well. but I suS- gest that. unless you want to spoil the effects and glory of your victory, you make no invi6ious comparisons. The Rough Riders are no better than other volunteers. They had an advantage in their arms for which they ought to be very grateful. R A. ALGER,
 Secretary of War.

ORDER ISSUED TO MOI E
Sufficient Vessels Off the Coast For
 Transportation.

Washington, Aug. 4.-After the confer ence at the White House with secretaries Day and Long, the president had confer- ence with Secretary Alger, Secretary Long and Assistant Secretary of the Navy Allen, at which action was taken for the prompt transportation of Gen. Shafter's army from Cuba to Montauk Point, l.. I. The conference occupied a couple of hours and there was an informal general presenta- ton of the needs of prompt action and of the means al hand to effect it.
 It was finally concluded that there were sufficient vessels off the coast there now for the purpose. When the metng ended it was officially stated that the number of vessels now there was adequate for the removal of the army. The dispatch of the troops home will accordingly begin al once. Another point taken up during the day was a thorough consideration of the pense rolls of the war and a discussion of where retrenchment could be made
 Steps for the disbandment of the auXil- iary navy already have begun and other actions demanded in the interest of econ- omy will follow.
 The following official statement has .b.eE issued | "The secrtary of wal mas ordered Gen. eral Shafter's troops relieved from further duty -.n Santiago as fast as transporta tion can be provided and the transfer of Spanish prisoners will admit of the reduc tion of the garrison.
 'The rest at Montauls Point will prepare these seasoned troops for the campaign against Havana. in which they will prob, ably take part.
 'The first transportation left Santiago yesterday The movement is expected 10 be completed by the ceth of tho mont',. Five of the volunteer regiments iynmunes, have been ordered to Santiago for garrison duty; the first has already arrived the, others are being pushed as rapidly as trans portation can be furnished

TROOPS LEAVE CAMP ALGER

CaichamauGa National Park Ga, Aug s.-1he making up of the force to go with Major-General Wade to Porto Rico has served to show how very anxious the vol unteors at Camp Thomas are to go to the front. The list of regiments designated here hardly received circulation in the camp at this place until hundreds of vol unteers. not included in the regiments to go, had maGe application to be transferred from their own regiments)to those sched- . ulcd to proceed to tbe-front.
 There are e-hSTfs of soldiers here who whils-tfTFy whils-tfTFy are attached to the regiments with which they were mustered. would gladly join any regiment in order to get to the front. This is accounted for in the main upon the high ground of American valor which has manifested itself con spicuously in the army of volunteers They 'tin soldiers" and there are few, if any. who will not be sadly disappointed if the war does not afford new opportunities by which they will be called to do battle
 The issue has been raised of the right to search a private resd ce for a soldier absent from his command without leave. An instance of the kind has occurred in Chattanooga, Lieutenant-Colonel Mimms commanding the First Vermont having sent a detail of ten men under lieuten- ant to search a private residence for Pri- vate Garretson, who was reported as being shielded in the residence referred to and defying arrest. The family of the searched residence has appealed to General Breck- enridge and the matter is now being in- Yestigated.

Senor Mendez de Vigo arrived almost to- gether and sat side by side. The absence of all well known adherents of the Bis marcks was most noted, especially as many of them came up to Berlin immediately after the death, presumably to confer on the attitude they would observe.
 Their majesties took seats in two arm chairs in front of the altar. all others in the congregation standing throughout the service. The emperor wore the uniform of the Foot Guards, and the empress was in simple mourning attire. The church was not filled with those that were invited so that some of the remaining congregation obtained admittance. Despite the bright ness of the day the electric light was used.

 seute About Assignments.

Camp Alger, Va, Aug. 4.-Camp reports say it is not certain that the Third Vir- ginia, First New Jersey, First Rhode Island and Fourth Missouri regiments will go from aCmp Alger to Porto Rico. It is said that Generals Graham and Butler desire to have the present corps organization held intact Reports reached Camp Alger to- day that the site chosen near Manassas is as unsantary as the old camp, but it is not known whether this report is correct. A number of typhoid fever cases were sent to Fort Myer hospital today. One death re- suited yesterday on the march to Burke's station Private John Hiland,' Co. D, Thir- ty-fourth Michigan, was overcome by heat and soon died. The march yesterday was of struggling character, the men cok- tinuing to arrive at Burke's st ion unA after midnight. The men will remain at that place until tomorrow in order to se- cure rest after yesterdays march, which was very trying on the men, owing to in- sufficient provisions and medical supplies.

German Burial Service

On entering Emperor William shook hands with Prince Hohenlohe, the chan cellor The organ was playing BeethoV- en's Funeral March as their maJesties took their seats, but the music soon pass ed into the homely strains of a German choral. played very softly, like the sound of a child's voice singing to itself. Ihen the choir sang Kendall's q Know That My Redeemer Liveth,' after which pr. Faber advanced and, facing the congrega- tion read the sentences of the German burial service: "Blessed the Sead which die in the Lord,' adding number of appropriate Scripture passages like ''For today is prince fallen in Israel
 After the singing of a choral came "Gott Thut das ist Wohlgathen" and the hymn' Jesus Lebt''
 Dr. Faber offered an extempore prayer based on the One Hundred and Forty ninth Psalm which he said had once been commended to Prince Bismarck in an important crisis in his life by an old friend as a source of comfort and strength, and which the great departed had often quoted. The prayer was German paean of triumph and gratitude for the achieve ments of Bismarck and his contempora- ries It was rich in Scriptural eXciama- tions like My Father! my Father! the chariot of Israel and the horsemen there- of" One passage ran thus: -
 "All who speak the German tongue will land thee to the most distant days; ana the hearts of their singers VIII praise tnee in ever fresh strains, because through nm and all those loyal and great men who stood by the side of King William in the perilous deeds of war and in the nope works of peace, thou didst show thy good pleasure in us and didst gloriously help us. Thou gavest into their hands sharp swords to execute vengeance among the nations who set themselves against us and to bind their kings and nobles with iron chains and with letters of the might of our ar- mies but afterward with the gentle bonds of reverence for true greatness, so that they were forced to do right. as 1t IS written on the tables of the worlds his tory to acknowledge the right of the re- established German empire and the right of the German name -<once again came to honor. Because of all that swells the breasts with joyful exultation is bound Up with the name of Bismarck, we,- there fore thank Thee Thou didst give him to us." #t
 After the choral 70, Haupa voll but and wunden." As their majesties left the church the organ burst into their favorite hymn and the crowd outside gave the em- peror and empress hearty cheers as shey drove away. -a.t
