Commissioner of Internal ReVeD
nue. Reversas IS Himself
In the Matter of Tax on Beer
and Whisky.
PHILIPPINE ISLANDS
Are Domestic Territory For
Purpose of Taxation.
Alcoholic Beverages Exported
Cannot Dodge the Burdens

Washington, Nov. 15-The commits
sioner of internal revenue today rem
dered a decision in which he holds that
beer, whisky and other articles of do
mestic manufacture subject to internal
revenue tax when consumed in the
United States are subject to this tax
when shipped to the Philippine islands.
In this sense the Philippines are to be
held to be domestic territory. Under
existing laws articles subject to in
ternal revenue tax at home are re-
lieved from the tax when exported to
a foreign country, the exporter giving
bond when the goods are Withdrawn.
which is Cancelled when satisfactory
proof is furnished that they actually
have been landed in foreign territory
Under a ruling made some weeks ago
by the commissioner. the Philippines
have been regarded for purposes of in
ternal revenue taxation as foreign terri
tory, and therefore the whisky, beer,
cigars, etc, which have been shipped
to the islands have been exempted from
taxation. Under the present ruling the
tax in all cases will be exacted before
shipment 1t is expected that exporters
will pay the tax under protest, having
in mind the fourteen diamond rings
case now pending in the United States
supreme court. A decision is expected
at an early date. This case involves the
question which has arisen in the con-
sideration of the internal revenue tax
cases, and If the court should hold that
the Philippines are foreign territory for
customs and internal revenue tax pur-
poses, exporters will be entitled to
refund of the amount of the tax paid

No Pardon For Man Who Went to
Penitentiary to Save Wife.

Governor Stanley this morning turned
down the application for parole OF T.
H Mikesell, of Fort Scott, who claims
he went to the penitentiary to shield
his wife, and that she afterwards De-
cured a divorce and married another
man.
A parole was granted, however, to
John Bell, who was sent to the peniten-
tiary from Woodson county in 1899 for
manslaughter. He was sentenced for
IL years, but he has contracted con-
sumption, and physicians say he cannot
live more than a week and he did not
wish to die in prison walls. For this
reason Governor Stanley paroled him.
The application of Joseph Wade, who
is serving a sentence gf ten years for
highway robbery at Kansas City in
1895, was passed for the present at
least. Wade's friends claim he did not
commit the robbery, and present evil
dence in support of this claim. but the
jury which tried Wade believed other

ROBBERS FRUSTRATED.
Attempt to Loot the Almena Bank
Nearly Successful.

Almena. Kas.. Now 15,-An unsuc-
cessful attempt was made to rob the
Merchants State bank, of Almena,
shortly after midnight of Thursday.
Had it not been for the presence of J. B.
Dyatt, a director, who was sleeping in
the bank at the time, the robbery would
have been successful.
Mr.. Dyatt was awakened by the rob-
berS breaking into a blacksmith shop
adjoining, but had no suspicion that
robbers were about until he saw a man
looking through the window of the
sleeping apartment and hearing others
walking in front. He climbed out of
bed, when one robber hurled a brick
through the window and as he did so
fired a shot, which is thought to have
been signal for the others to skip out
Immediately after the supposed rob-
ber hurled the brick through the win
dow Mr.. Dyatt fired six shots through
the window. but as far as known none
of them took effect. On the coming of
daylight the blacksmith tools were
found scattered in front of the bank,
besides a dark lantern. The Rock Isl
and tool house was also broken open.

MOVE ON MEXICO.
Creamery Company Being Or
ganized in Topeka.

A company is being organized in To-
peka by A. B. Hulett for the purpose
of starting a dairy and creamery in Old
Mexico, the ultimate object being to
control the creamery business of that
entire nation.
Several well known cattlemen who
live in Topeka are financially interested
in the proposition. DR.. c. b. Gum, of
this city, is one of the promoters. L. Z.
Yount, formerly commissioner of elec-
tions, is one of the members of the
company, and expects to go to Mexico
next week for the purpose OF taking per-
Sonal supervision Of part of the work
Mr.. Hulett has had some practical ex-
perience in the creamery business in Old
Mexico. Up to the present time there
except goats milk American COWS
have never been extensively bred there.
1t is claimed that the American breed
of cows can not thrive in that country,
but this Mr.. Hulett denies.
Mr.. Hulett's plan is to establish
chain of dairies throughout Mexico.
reaching all the principal towns. With
the rapidly increasing American pOpula-
ton, and with the field exclusively in
his own hands, he thinks there is for
tune in the work. Milk sells in Mexico
for go cents gallon.
1t was reported that J. E. Nissley. for
merly president of the Continental
Creamery company, was interested in
the Hulett scheme. but this Mr.. Miss
ley denies. lie says tndI ne mas Otnef
business matters on hand which require
his attention. 1T looks to me-" said
Mr. Nissley this morning, that the plan
which Mr.. Hulett has ought to be sue
cessful. There certainly is unde-
veloped field in Mexico which some one
will occupy"
Mr.. Hulett and Mr.. Gum are in Leav-
enworth today trying to interest some
Leavenworth capitalists in the plan. AS
soon as the capital stock of the com
pany is sold, the company will go ahead
with it's plan of buying and shipping
good milch cows to Mexico.

Montgomery Preliminary Ends.

Winfield, Kas, Nov. 15.-The prelimi-
nary examination of w. c. Johnson, a
cowboy charged with the murder of
Detective Montgomery, was finished
last evening. Judge Webb has not yet
bound johnson over, but will probably
do so today. The defense has attempt
ed to prove an alibi, Johnson's relatives
swearing that he was at home in bed
at the time of the murder. The state
introduced witnesses who saw Johnson
up town that night just before the muir
der A strong network of evidence has
been woven around Johnson. His shoes
fit the tracks the murderer made in the
mud. The ticket he bought to the 1C1
ranch at Bliss, Okla, was perforated
and sold on Monday following the muir
der, and not the next morning Sunday
as Johnson alleges. Over 100 witnesses
have been examined.

Greaves, of ST. Marys, Kan. is here
with six men prospecting for a location
to burn gumbo for railroad ballast. He
is the superintendent of the American
Ballast company of Chicago.

men boring holes about II feet deep
in the bottom beyond the waterworks

two years. He has charge of the gum
