LEGAL DECISION.
Internal Revenue Collectors Can Re-
fuse to Testify or Produce Papers.

Internal Revenue Collectors Can Re-
fuse to Testify or Produce Papers.
The treasury department at Wash
ington in it's September decisions, has
notified all collectors of internal rev.
enue that in the future they will be JUS
tilted in refusing to testify or to fur
nish copies of official papers in civil
proceedings. This is the decision OF
Judge Evans Of the United States dis
trict court of Kentucky, and was APP
pended to the treasury decisions sent to
Collector Winslow yesterday. This de-
cision resulted from case in Kentucky
where Elias Block & Sons, distillers,
failed to comply with the revenue laws
in not listing certain spirits in their
possession so they might be taxed. A
subpoena was issued on the revenue
collector, Civil proceedings resulted and
Judge Evans announced his decision.
The removal of the right to issue sub
poenas against collectors of internal
revenue agents is welcome news to all
agents who have been mixed UP in any
civil proceedings.

FESTIVAL BOOK OUT.

The official program book of the
music festival which is now on sale,
appears in the neatest and most at
tractive typographical dress it has ever
worn. The portraits are undoubtedly
better than were ever before put into
the book, and the Charles Hamilton
press has made the other work to cor
respond Besides portraits of all the
artists, there are complete programs
with the words of all the songs as we'll
as of the oratorios and other long
works, and so far as seemed expedient,
the German or Italian has been repro
duced side by side with the English
translation. The historical, descriptive
and explanatory notes have been pre-
pared by Walter NJ. Lancaster of The
Spy for the sixth successive year. Much
that is interesting and helpful to fes-
tival goers will be found in the book.
The lists Of soloists and of works per-
formed since 1865 are by no means the
least valuable features.

BUSINESS is DULL.
Only One Recruit Mustered Into the
Army Yesterday

ARMY ICStSFOdy
Recruiting in this city is at the pres
ent time at a very low ebb. and the To-
cal offices are not doing great deal
towards swelling the army of Uncle
Sam. But one recruit was sworn in
yesterday, and he was Charles V. How
ard of Peacedale, R. l. He was must
cred in by Lieut.. NJ. E. Morris, who
did so from a sick bed. -Four others
were rejected by the doctor. Lieut..
Morris Is again the victim of malarial
fever contracted in the recent war
with Spain, when he was a captain in
the Natick company of the. Ninth Mas
sachusetts volunteers. He was unable
to stay at his office, but repaired to the
Brunswick Hotel where he remained
In bed. He expects to be about in a
few days when the fever passes away.
Sergt. Edward F.JLarkin rejected
three applicants at the marine Office
yesterday and accepted one. His name
is to be withheld until after being
mustered into the service. Capt F. ].
Moses, Jr., is expected at the office to-
day, and VIZ muster the applicant into
the service.
At the regular army recruiting sta
ton, yesterday, not an applicant put in
an appearance. Sergt. Paul Gerber, in
charge of the office, has received a let
ter from Herman Pankau, who was
mustered in at the local Office and sent
to Fort Ethan Allen, where the Forty
third regiment volunteers are stationed
He stated that he was well pleased with
the service and had been promoted to
be corporal and expected to be ad-
yanced to sergeant in the near future
Corp. Pankau's home is in Elmira, N.
y, and he has seen service with Troop
M of the Seventh cavalry regulars in
the war with Spain, serving in the San
tiago campaign.
