SAND is DIFFICULT TO GET
Material Comes slowly and Therefore
Local Contractors Encounter
Serious Delay.

Contractors are not getting sand as rap
idly as they desire It and consequently
complaint has been made to the railroads
for better service. II is claimed the supply
is so short and the sand is being shipped in
so slowly IL is possible the building and
street work now going on will be seriously
retarded. II is understood the Missouri
Pacific, which handles most of the sand,
has stopped entirely furnishing cars, but
instead is sending all Of its available cars
70 the coal mines. The Union Pacific and
Burlington are still hauling some sand, but
large number OF their available supply
OF cars is being used to haul corn and the
sand cars are necessarily short. The COM
plant, it is said, is general among the

A decision has been rendered by the
Commissioner of Internal Revenues at
Washington that Will seriously affect
a number of patent medicines COM
posed largely of distilled liquors. He
has reversed q ruling of his Depart
ment made many years ago, and now
decides that the manufacturers of these

druggists and others handling them
will have to pay the usual retail
liquor dealers license.

nue., says that there is a number Of
compounds ON the market going under
the names of medicines that are COM
posed chiefly of distilled spirits. W ith-
out the addition of drugs or medicines

He authorizes collectors TO impose the
special tax upon manufacturers of
every compound composed of distilled
spirits. even though drugs are declared
to have been added thereto. "when
their presence is not discoverable hy

the quantity of drugs in the prepare
tion is so small as to have no appre-
ciabie effect ON the liquor.

ANOTHER RICHMOND IN FIELD.
Frank Brown Seems To Like The
Job of Governor.

Former Governor Frank Brown is
so fond of Annapolis and likes the job
OF being Governor so well that he
wants the old Job again. Yesterday
he sprung a snrprise on Senator Cor
man aud the other Democratic lead
ers who gathered yesterday afternoon
at the Hotel RenneIt, Baltimore, for
an informal conference regarding plans
Tor the coming campaign when ex-
Governor Frank Brown made the an
ouncement that he is q candidate for
the Democratic Gubernatorial nomi-
nation two years hence.
: bis purpose was stated in the course
of conversation concerning the new
campaign committee which is to be
named by Chairman Murray Vandiver
next week and of which ex Governor
Brown will be a member. Ever since
his return from Europe a week or so
ago there have been rumors that the
Ex-Governor intended entering the
Fl ed as candidate, and it was said
that he had expressed himself decided
~ ON the subject to several of his
friends with whom he had talked.
Early in the day a reporter saw him
at his office, on North Charles street.
Baltimore. and asked him the direct
question as TO whether or not he in
tended to announce himself.
The announcement of ex- Governor
Brown of his candidacy for Governor
increases the number of aspirants ia
three. as Governor Warfield, notwith.
standing the fact that he is as yet
noncommittal on the subject, is regard
ed by his friends as already a candi-
date. General Baughman announced
HIMSELF as a candidate some months ago.
