WAR REVENUE BILL.
A complete agreement has been reached
by the Republican conferees on the most
important items of the war revenue re-
duction bill. On beer the house wins it's
contention. and the senate yields. The
house fixed rate of SLIGO per barrel
without any discount, while the senate
retained the old rate of 81 per barrel
with a 25 per cent discount. The differ
ence between the two rates is about 10
cents on the barrel.
The tobacco tax is compromised The
house left the tax standing at II cents
per pound, as in the existing law, while
the senate reduced it % per cent, or to
cents per pound. The compromise pro-
vides for a reduction OF 2.40 cents per
pound, leaving the rate $50. The house
also comes out ahead on bank checks.
The house repealed the entire tax on
checks, but the senate did not accept
this action. The senate conferees now
concede the house provision. The reduc-
ton in the revenue bill will be $7,00O,000
on account of this action. The house
provision entirely repeating the tax on
proprietary medicines is also accepted.
