WATCH THE REPORTS
If You Want to Know Which Patent
Medicines Are to Be classsd as Ii
quors. Look for the Reports Of the
Internal Revenu. Department.

The Commissioner Of Internal Revenue
has decided, and Justly 50, that some
patent medicines contain sufficient alco-
hol to class them as liquors. This rul
ing has long been looked for by those
who have watched conditions. To the
careful observer the enormous sales
achieved by some Of these so-called rem
edies is due TO some other reason than
their curative properties.
Physicians and lnymen conversant
with the subject have long maintained
chat the demand for certain patent med
ieines was created by the taste for alco-
hel thus acquired, snd now the United
States government has taken notice OF
this evil Chemical tests are now being
made in the government laboratories at
Washington, and those so-called RENE

mittee made numerous interesting dis
closures regarding that concerns BUSH
ness methods under the recent domina-
ton of Thomas r. Ryan, came out fiat
footed yesterday on the witness stand in
defense of Wall Street speculation by in
surance companies. He was the first
witness in the pending inquiry to as
sumo this attitude.
His emphatic advocacy Of speculation
in stock market securities was basel
apon his expressive belief that real es-
tate and mortgage investments are far
more liable to iluctuation. He said he
believed absolutely in industrial secure
tics as means OF insurance company
profit, but admitted that speculation
should be entered upon with great care
and only BY officers Of proved honesty
Ryan sought to influence the companys
Investments.
The witness also advocated a period
zeal distribution Of surplus, the period
to be maximum of Ave and minimum
of three years
Following Mr.. Tatlock ON the stand,
President Doremus OF the GeTmania Life
Eunqnalihedly denounced stock specula-
ton by insurance companies as perilous-
" unstable and announced that the best
business Of his company was in Ger
many, because tour Wild methods" ARE
not in vogue there. He declared also
that the practice Of rebnting by agents
is a necessity in this country to obtain
ii fair share Of BUSINESS.
Following the disclosures of yesterday
considerable solicitnde was shown by Mr..
Ryan's counsel, Paul D. CravRth.
Tuesday Mr. TatIocl. was unsupported
liz legal advice Yesterday. however,
Mr.. Cravath arrived early and held
long consultation with Mr. Hughes.
Later he eonversed for several minutes
with Mr.. Tatlock
M. n. Amory, who about three years
ago brought sensational charges against
Mr.. RYAN in connection w the Metro
politan State Railway Company, which
he said had been improperly managed
with the knowledge Of Msssrs. Ryan.
Whitney, and vreeland was a spectator
during the testimony Of Mr.. Tatiock.
Mr.. VreeInnd, subsequent TO this

and Whitney, denounced Amory in an
