actually getting eight cents for cotton
al many points. and with Ssl cents
quoted at New York. the highest
price since October ;. 1856. the south
is now working into cloth a larger
share OF the cotton it produces than in
any previous year. The Southern con-
sumption above mentioned was one
eighth Of the entire crop in the cot
ton year ending with last Auguest, and
a greater quantity than the whole
Northern states consumed as late as
1Sss; in fact until twenty years ago
the consumption Of the whole country
had never been as large as that Of
the South alone was last year. Yet the
actual consumption this year is
reckoned by The Financial Chroni-

WASHINGTON. April A.-Secretary Gage
to-day sent TO the Senate the following re-
ply to the resolution of April 20, 1900:
THE Honorable Secretary of the Treas
ury-I have the honor TO return herewith
Senate resolution of April 20. 1900. referred
to this Office by the honorable assistant
secretary, II. A. Taylor. on the list inst,
in regard to the amount of revenues de-
rived from the So-called war revenue act.
with statement showing the total amount
or such receipts from the 18th of June, 1898,
to the 31st ult. j would be glad to fur
nish a more detailed statement showing
the amount received from each source
under the head of Schedule A, but ii is
impossible TO do so, with any degree of
accuracy. 1t would be useless to attempt
to indicate the specific documentary taxes
paid by the 500, 900 1-cent stamps used,
especially in view of the fact that besides
the four specific purposes for which the l.
cent documentary stamp is provided by
law, stamps of that denomination may be
used on documents requiring higher tax,
the question being merely whether there is
sufficient space on the document for af-
fixing stamps of the smaller denomination.
The same difficulty would be encountered in
an effort TO trace the particular docu-
mentary taxes paid by the 500, 000.O 600 2-cent
stamps used for the payment of taxes un-
der Schedule A. w. w. WILSON,
Commissioner of Internal Revenue"
Following is statement, showing the
amount of internal revenue collected I'M

to March 81, 1900, cents omitted:
