Denver Union Stock Yards. Oct
l6-All markets noted a slight i'm
provement last week, althoaeh the
advance was not very material
Eastern markets were quoted steady
30 strong with instances Of l0c adj
vance. There were good many
cattle here but anything desirable
sold readily as there was a good de
mand The market closed steady To
shade higher on good stuff aud
barely steady on the common kinds
Very few beef steers were included
IN the week supply and packers
were unable 10 get what they wanted
The demand therefore, for light
weight steers carrying plenty OF tat
Is excellent Cows were plentiful
but choice ones rather scarce.
The best ON sale were only good

1t was the same old story in the
feeder and st0cker market There
were a good many steers here but
plenty Of buyers for all OF them.
A number Of the big eastern feeders
now have buyers stationed here aud
are buying all they can get. The
small feeder is also we'll represented
and a number have been here from
the eastern states during the last
week buying all the way from one
TO a dozen ears each. Dealers also
had plenty Of orders and the result
was a good active market for any
thing at all desirable at rather bet
ter than river prices. Best steers
sold around $3.50 freight paid and

pretty good at 1925 to 50 A. and

Washington, September II, 1905
To Merchants and Druggists:
Among the various alcoholic com
pounds now ON the market, adver-
tised and sold ss medicine under
the name of whIskev, bitters. tnnics.
cordIsls. etc there are s,,me that
are composed chiefly OF distilled
spirits, or mixtures Thereof, without
the addition Of drugs or medicinal
ingredients in sufficient quantities
to change materially the character
Of the alcoholic liquor.
The fact that these compounds,
during the life of the statute imnns-
ing tax ON proprietary medicines
were, without the necessity of inves
tigation into their medicinal eharac-
ter, by the terms OF tine law made
subject to that tax, because they
were held out to the public as medi-
cines, does not afford ground fur re-
hevlng the manufacturers from the
special tax as rectihers aud liquor
dealers, or dealers therein from
special tax as liquor dealers under
the provisions of section 32i4, re
vised statutes, and amendments.
The question, in each case, arising
under the terms of this circular will
be determined by this office, not
merely upon examination of the
formula submitted by the manufac-
turer of the compound, but upon
result of the ANALYSIS made in the
chemical. Laboratory here Of samples
obtained Ia the open market and
sent in by the internal-revenue
officers and agents.
The ruling as to these compounds
in the fourth paragraph Of Circular
No. COS (lreasury Decisions, 1901,
vol. 4, p. 2l0l that, il thoy are
composed Of spirits in combination
with drugs, herbs, roots, etc, and
are held out as remedies for diseases
stated in labels on the bottles. they
are to be regarded as medicines
until the facts acertained, as to the
purpose for which they are usually
sold or used, show them to be bev-
eraces, and until such facts are OBJ
tained druggists and merchants who
sell these compounds in good faith
as medicines onl Y are not to be called
on TO pay special tax as liquor
dealers or account Of such sales. j.
hereby revoked.
But in order that no injustice
may be done TO these druggists and
merchants who, without holding
special-tax stamps as liquor dealers,
now have in stock these compounds
for sale as medicines, this circular
will not be put into effect until Dec
ember |, 1903.
Collectors will. however, immedi-
ately upon the receipt of this cir
cular send out notice TO all druggists
and merchants dealing in prOprie-
tary medicines in their districts who
do not hold the requisite special tax
stamp as liquor dealers, that on and
after December / 1908, they will be
required TO pay special tax for sell
ing the acoholic compounds coming
within the ruling now promulgated,
even when they sell them IN good
faith for medicinal use only, never
selling them as beverages, nor sell
ing them knowingly to those buying
them for use as beverages.
