Hardee Harrison, Red Oak. Texas. --
My Dear Sir: | have your inquiry of

know nothing OF any statute or in
ternal revenue regulation which re-
quires a destruction of cigar boxes.
All revenue stamps must be destroy
ed instantly after the receptacle has
become empty, and of course other
articles would not be replaced in
the receptacle, but / know of no rule
requiring boxes TO be destroyed.
Yours very earnestly,
VIM. H. ATWELL,

WORK PROGRESSING
Trinity and BrazoS Valley Service
VIII BE Open to Houston BY
January.

Vice President Sweeney of the
Trinity and Brazos Valley Railway
company stated yesterday that work
on The line was progressing quite
satisfactorily. Especially is this true
with regard to the telegraph con-
struction, 1t is now practically Ger
tain that one line of telegraph will
be completed by the last of next
week. In addition to the line now
being strung, Mr.. Sweeney said that
as soon as the first line was finish
ed a second wire would be strung,
making a double wire service for the
Trinity and B1aHCs Valley between
Fort Worth and Houston.
The completion of the telegraph
construction will be of great value
to the successful operation of the
work trains along the southern por-
ton of the line. The laying of the
steel was completed nearly two weeks
ago. but much work remains to be
done on the roadbed before service
is opened
! I'VE expect to have everything in
| shipshape for opening the service by
| the first of the year. said Mr.. SWee-
ney. ''This is not only true of the
| road itself, but also of the shops, sta
tions, etc. The shops at league VII
be completed by the middle or De
cember The station at league |
nearing completion and will in al
probability be finished by the first o
next month We have been some
what delayed by our inability to sc
cure shipment of materials ordered
in the construction of the road anc
its adjuncts, owing perhaps to the
general Strengthened conditions OF
car service. but all in all, we are get.
| ting along quite satisfactorily and
| confidently expect to open up our
service 10 Houston by January next.
