MATTRESS FACTORY BURNED.
Fire Destroys Small Building, with


The fire department was called out at
10 o'clock this forenoon by an alarm
from box 25, a mattress factory near the
corner OF Third and Summit streets be-
Ing ablaze. Before water could be
turned on the building and it's contents
We're in flames and We're practically
ruined. The factory was owned and
operated by Mr.. D. Dick, who resides at
No. 305 Summit street. Several months
ago he erected frame building on the
rear of his lot and purchased the neces-
sary machinery with which to equip a.
factory for manufacturing and renovat-
ing mattresses. The building. machine
sry and stock represented an Investment
of $500. and all were almost entirely
ruined. MIR. Dick carried no insurance.
The fire was caused by the material
in a picker becoming ignited. either by
friction of the machinery or by match
that had fallen into the material. The
infiammable nature of the contents
caused the whole interior to blaze up at
once, and the two workmen were com
PEELED to make a hasty exit without
even so much az shutting down the en-
CINE. Material for about fifty mattress
es was destroyed. 1t is probable that
Mr.. Dick will rebuild.

get for his part in the, Spanish-Ame rican

NEW INTERNAL REVENUE RULING.
Tax Must He Paid on whisky. Beer
and Tobacco shipped to Philippines.

IT, Nl BllC SfEtl<Al+
Washington. Nov. l5.-The Commissioner Of
Internal Revenue. in a ruling to-day. held
that whisky. beer and tobacco shipped to
the Philippine Isla nds are subject to the In
ctrnal revenue tax. This virtually means
that for purnOses OF internal revenue tax
alton. the Philippines are to be considered
domestic territory until :he decision OF the
United States supreme Court shall have
definitely determined the question.
Under existing laws. the manufa cturer of
whisky beer ard tobacco has the right to
ship to foreign country without payment
OF the internal revenue tax by execution of
a bond.
In a previous ruling. the Commissioner had
held that these shipments could be made
TO the Philippines as though to forelgn ter
ritory- But the present contention il that
reversal of this dIcision will work no
hardship. inss.nuch as the exporter should
the Supreme Court hold the Philippines Il
be domestic territory. will have paid only
that tax which he should have paid while
should the Supreme Court designate the
Philippines es foreign territory. the exporter
paying the Internal revenue tax under pro-
test will reserve to himself the right OF full
recovery from the Government the tax paid
WhisEy. beer and tobacco exported into
tie Philippines are subject to customs du-
ties amounting % $50 per barrel. The de-
cision OF MIR. Nerkes Imposes in addition,
the regular internal revenue tax.
