RULE ON BUCKET SHOPS.
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Promulgates Court Decisions.

Washington, March 27.-The COM
missioner Of internal revenue has pro-
mulgated the recent decision of the
United States circuit court Of appeals.
third circuit, which held that no stamp
tax accrues on a presumptiVe resale of
stock where bucket shop transactions
are settled by payment Of differences.
This decision will be followed by the in
ternal revenue officials in dispOsing of
all similar questions.
The commissioner also has held that
there is nothing in paragraph 3 Of
schedule A. act Of March 2. 1901, which
implies that a purchase or sale of stocks
must be presumed and a. written memo
randum delivered when a transaction is
closed or terminated. On the other
nand, the act presupposes that trans
actions are closed without such memo
randum of purchase or sale because they
are made with the intent that they may
be closed adjusted or settled according
TO or with reference TO the public mar
ket quotation Of prices. or with the in
tent that they shall de deemed closed
or terminated when the public market
quotations shall reach a certain figure
1t IS only original transac tons either by
pretended purchase or sale that require
written stamped memoranda to be de-
lfvered to the other party under said
paragraph
He also provides that the provision in
regard to keeping books in paragraph 3
applies to all persons who do any such
business as is described in said para
graph, whether such persons are also
enga ged in business other than that of
a bucket shop or not.
