TO TEST THE TAX IN COURT
COMMISSIONER YERKES MOVES IN
THE CASE OF A BROKER.
Latter Has Ignored Provisions Of the
War Revenue Act, Claiming
They Are UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Commissioner of Internal Revenue Yerkes
today ordered the revenue bureau agent al
New York to consult with the district at
torney for New York city with a view to
securing evidence against George c.
Thomas. broker, justifying the latter's
prosecution on the ground of violation OF
the law relating to the tax of 3 cents on
every hundred dollars worth of stock sold
exchanged or transferred. Mr.. Thomas
who is director of the Consolidated Stock
and Petroleum Exchange of New York
proposes to make a test case of the pro-
vision of the war revenue act applying In
the premises. This tax has been the sub
Ject OF great deal of controversy be-
tween brokers and internal revenue agents
terest.
: 1t is probable that Mr.. Thomas will be
arra1gned on the charge, trial proceeded
with ana decision rendered. Mr.. Thomas
claims that the law is unconstitutional.
Ihe section of the law in question is
embraced In schedule A of the act of June
1S, 1888, as amended by section 8, act of
March 2. 1901, and is as follows:
On all sales, or agreements to sell, or
memoranda of sales or deliveries or trans
1ers or shares or certificates of stock in
any association, COMPANY or corporation
Whether made upon or shown by the books
OF the association, company or corporation
OF py any assignment in blank, or by any
oenVery, or by any paper or agreement or
memorandum or other evidence of transfer
or sale whether emitting the holder in any
manner to the benefit of such stock, or to
secure the future payment of money or
for the future transfer of any stock, on
each hundred dollars of face value or frac-
t1On thereof, cents"
Mr. THOMAS has openly refused to obey
the law under which the government mas
peen collecting 81 for every 100 shares of
STOCK sold in the exchanges 1t is stated
tnat Mr Ihomas began to ignore the pro-
visions OF the law May -, and in order
tnat there might be no concealment in the
matter he notified his legal advisers Of his
actlon, who in turn sent notice to the col
lector OF internal revenue for New York
1t Is stated that since that date Mr.. Thomas
has continued to transfer stock unstamped
and that the lawyers have continued to
keep the collector posted on his attitude,
but the department has only just now de-
ctGed to act in the case. Mr.. Thomas will
be prosecuted If the facts warrant and the
penalty will be imposed if the law is sus-
tafned and the broker is convicted. The
penalty for such q violation is fine of
not less than $500 and not more than 81 900,
or imprisonment for six months, or both,
In the discretion OF the court. AS Mr..
Thomas has been refusing to pay the tax
for two months or more, it is stated that
he Is liable to fines aggregatinS 81 OOO, 900
or more and to Imprisonment for a period
Of about 800 years.
II the law is declared unconstitutional,
brokers from all over the country will have
ground for the presentation of claims for
money paid by them under its provisions.
These claims will aggregate millions of
dollars.

A THREE-CORNERED FIGHT
FRICTION IN BOTH PARTIES IN
PHILADELPHIA POLITICS.
Struggle Against the Machine. Whicl
May Extend Into the State
Election.

Politics are at A boiling pitch in Phila-
delphia and three-cornered campaign of
exceeding bitterness is impending, involv-
ing the election of city officers. The fric-
ton is likely to extend to state politics,
however, and to become accentuated.
The trouble began with the efforts of a
certain republican element in the city to
purify municipal politics and to destroy
a ring Of politicians alleged to be using
the municipal administration to the per-
sonal advantage of it's members and caus-
ing scandals in many branches of the city
government. In this movement the repub-
licans were being aided by many demo-
Gratis and fusion of democrats and re-
publican forces seemed likely a little while
ago.
AS this prospect frightened, however, a
flank movement was made by the leaders
of the democratic faction having charge of
the party's machine in Philadelphia,
Messrs. Donnelly ard Ryan. They induced
ex-Gov. Robert E. Pattson, a democrat Of
high standing in tile state, to accept the
Craftsmanship of the city committee, hop
ing. 1t is claimed, to thereby bring to the
support of the machine the democrats who
were likely to join the fusion movement.
The next step was to nominate a candi-
date for district attorney the office about
which the fight centered.
This made three candidates for that office
in the field, the ring republicans having
one and the independent republicans an
other, and defeated the prospect of fusion.
1t was alleged that the democratic ma
chine was working in harmony If not In
collusion. with the republican ring and
that Governor Pattison's acceptance of the
Craftsmanship Of the committee was q retro
grade movement for that gentleman, es-
pecially as he had often received the sup
port Of the Independent vote in the past.
The democratic state convention meets
in Harrisburg August 10, and the anti
machine democrats are preparing to con-
test the seats Of the delegates from Phia-
delphia, this being part of a plan, it is
said to attempt to destroy the present or
ganZation of the machine.
At a meeting of the Jeffersonian club in
Philadelphia last night, attended by Gov
ernor Pattison, he was severely arraigned
for not cooperating with the Independents
and the anti-ma chine democrats and after
vainly endeavoring to bring about harmony
he was compelled to leave the hall
The Quay and anti-Quay factions are of
course mixed up In the affair, and it is
probable that the politics of the state will
become involved before the trouble is
quieted The independents propose to in
augurate a campaign in September that
will surprise the city and the state.

The Military Courts Kept Busy with
Their Cases.

Copies OF additional orders promulgated
by the Division Of The Philippines received
at the War Department show that the
military courts are still busy trying native
murderers, assassns and others guilty of
violating the rules Of war. In many cases
II is found that these attacks are directed
against natives who have been friendly
with American officers and the American
government The records show that many
persons who have supplied the American
army with provisions have been murdered
In an outrageous manner by Filipino ban
dts. One instance Is recorded where a man
who had taken the oath of allegiance to
the American government accepted a gov
ernorship from the insurgents and issued
orders to assassinate Americans whenever
II could be done with safety to the assas-
sins. The death penalty is inflicted upon
the most atrocious cases, while in others
iire Imprisonment and sentences of twenty
and ten years are imposed

CLEVELAND, August 2.-The big steel
combine is utilizing negro labor to supplant
Its white workmen in the Newburg mills
here. Already a couple of hundred of
brawny colored men have come to the city

see, according to the same authority, see
In this strike a glorious opportunity to inn
prove their condition, and they are flocking
north in large numbers.
1t is also asserted that the steel CORPORA

gather all the colored iron workers possi-
bic and to center them at the various
points of the strike.

into the mills here are practical iron work.
