STAMP NOT NECEssAR Y.
Important Ruling by Commissioner of

Important Railing by Commissioners of
Internal Revenue.
Commissioner Wilson. Of the internal
revenue bureau, has just rendered a de.
cision which is of more interest to the
general public than most such decisions
are, as it covers matters Of Importance
to a great many people, relating, as it
does, to the ~taxability Of the transfers
of mortgages, both ohattle and real.
The question am up OF a recent de-
cision by Judge Woolson Of the federal
court for the Keokuk, Ia, district, in
which he refused to allow a mortgage
to BIZ offered in evidence because it was
not stamped as a transfer.
It appears that the mortgage was
given to secur the payment OF a note,
which had no signers, although having
passed through several hands. Judge
Woolson declined to allow the mortgage
to be introduced in evidence On the
ground that it had not been stamped
for transfer. Commissioner Wilson
does not concur with the Judge and
takes the view that if the mortgage
was stamped when first given, it is not
subject to the stamp tax, as these trans
fers were simply implied. He rules
that congress intended only to tax the
express assignments and transfers of
mortgages and not those that were
merely implied.

THE BURLINGTON EXTENSION.
Rum"red They Will Build to Ogden to
Connect with the =. T..

us'asSN -" SuG 81 .
Chicago. Nov. 10. - The Tribune
says: 1t is probable that the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy will build IN
extension to Ogden, Utah, and make
connection there with the Southern
Pacific. The proposed extension is not
TO be from Denver west, but is to I'll
from Alliance, Neb., to Hartville,
where there are large and valuable iron
deposits and thence due west fifty miles
north Of Cheyenne. Wyo., to Ogden.
This would place the Burlingtou's
extension midway between the Chicago
& Northwestern's Fremont, Elkhorn
& Missouri Valley railroad aud the
Union Pacific. II would run through Il
fertile section Of Nebraska and strike
some valuable iron aud other mineral
deposits i'll Wyoming. The line would
be as direct as the Northwestern Union
Pacific line from Chicago to Ogden.
From Denver west the Burlington has
the use of both the Denver & Rio
Grande and the Colorado Midland, but
the Denver route is not so direct as
would be the proposed line via Alliance.
The reason the Burlington is DESTROYS
Of running q through trans-continental
line midway between the Union Pacific
and the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri
Valley is that these lines belong to the
Vanderbilt Hartman syndicate and the
present Burlington line is wedged III
between them. 1t desires to be situated
SO that it car offer active competition
to the Northwestern and its allied lines
west Of the Missouri river, and this it
hopes to accomplish by building an ex.
tension from Alliance.

Estcourt Isolated by Beers, Who
Control the Railroad to
Moot River.
As a Consequence Important De-
velopments Are Due at
Any Time.
Evidence Tends to Show Large
Boer Accessions From Cape
Burghers.

LONDON, Nov. 23.-There has appar.
emily been no communication with Est.
court. Natal, since noon, Tuesday, and
the Beers now control the railroad
thence to Moot river. Consequently,
momentous developments may be ex-
pected at any time. The Beers, it
seems, are swarming southwark. Large
bodies of them are reported all around
E%stcourt, and parties Of Beers appear
to be threatening Pietermaritzburg.
The Beers encamped at Highlands sta
ton are well supplied with artillery
and all evidence tends to show that the
various Boer forces are being largely
increased by accessions from the disaf-
fected Cape burghers. The serious de-
ficiency in cavalry is being felt by
the British, who are unable to
keep in touch with the mobile
Boer forces, whose presence is hardly
reported before they are lost sight OF,
only to reappear at another point along
the line Of communication. General
H%ildyard's force at Estcourt, reinforced
by the naval guns, car do little but
wait an attack until General Clery's
column is capable Of taking the field.
According to a Cape Town dispatch
General Meuhuen's division left Orange
river and reached Wittputs, half way
to Belmont, yesterday, and advices
from Orange river today show that the
Beers occupy Belmont in force and that
the neighboring hills are crowned with
Boer cannon A patrol of Lancers who
had returned to Orange river came I'M
expectedly on two Boer laagers. Three
shrapnel shells burst close to the Ian.
ciers, who, however, were unframed.
