MISTAMPED CHECKS
Important Ruling Of the Commissioner
Of Internal Revenue.
The Stamps Must Be Affixed BY th'
Drawer or They Will Not Be
Received.

The war revenue act requires a two
cent revenue stamp TO be affixed to a
bank check and cancelled with the date
of issue and initials Of drawer.
Many persons have been issuing
checks without afIixing a properly can
celled revenue stamp, leaving the per-
son receiving the check or the bank to
put on stamp, or offering postage
stamp or two cents TO pay for a stamp.
II appears this has caused a great deal
Of trouble and loss TO the government
a. we'll az the banks.
The Ladd d Bush bank Of this city TO-
day received an important ruling Of G..
W. Wilson, commissioner Of Internal
Revenues, governing this matter Of
stamping checks. II leaves the bank no
discretion whatever about receiving a
check that is not properly stamped.
THE COMMISSIONER RULINGS.
"You are advised that bank must not
afIix stamps 10 unstamped checks pre-
sented, and must return 10 the drawer
any unstamped check presented for pay
ment.
'In other words, the person drawing
check must afiix and cancel revenue
stamp.
Furthermore banks violating this
Law will be reported 10 the L. $. Dist.
Atty. for prosecution"
"The instructions contained in treas
ury decision ~, COS, under date June ~,
1898, 10 the effect that there was no
objection TO the affixing by the bank OF
the requisite stamps TO an unstamped
check presented for payment, is hereby
revoked. This instruction was given TO
meet an emergency Immediately pre-
ceding the taking effect of the stamp act
July /, 1898, in order 10 obviate the
necessity Of returning by the banks
thousands Of unstamped checks issued
by drawers in ignorance OF the law. The
Law being now generally understood
