fastened on the end with a rubber elas-
tic, one Of the small ones. The loop

the elastic and tied in the usual man
ner. Every ribbon returned home that
night.

Decision on Spanish War Tax
Legacies.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, November THE
federal court of appeals of st. Louis
handed down an opinion today in the
case of the Union Trust Company agt
Edmund B. Allen. collector of internal
revenue. in which 1t is held that the )
per cent Spanish war tax on all legacies
and distributed shares of estates in ex-
cess Of $1,000 that come within the pro-
visions of the act must be paid to the
government.
All estates in the country where the
testator died between March >, 1901, and
April Il, 1902, are affected by the de-
cision.
Five million dollars in legacy taxes are
already in controversy in the United
States courts. Thousands of others were
awaiting this decision of the courts.
The st. Louis court of appeals in it's
decision holds that the repeal act pro-
vided that the tax should still be due
the government from vested legacies in
cases where the death of the testator
had occurred any time previous to the
date of repeal.
The decision gives the government full
power to hold what 1t has already col
lected from estates and from others
where suits have been brought to recover
the tax paid under protest.
