The new customs tax to be levied on
foreign built yachts becomes effective
under the terms of the Payne law on
Sept. /, and the treasury department
is now making plans for the collec-
ton of the revenues from this source.
Blanks have been furnished to Col
lector Lyman at Boston, who has been
instructed to send them to all the
owners of foreign-built craft in that
collection district, as the first step of
the authorities here to ascertain just
what vessels will be required to pay
the duty Other collectors have been
asked to obtain the required informa
ton. The department expects some
intricate problems to arise, and sew
eral fine points have already been
presented.
The department has already decided
to interpret the law as meaning that
the tax shall be levied upon the man
aging owners who are in possession Of
the vessels on Sept. 1. Hence if a
would be assessed against the pur-
chaser, and not against the person
owning or leasing the vessel at the
time the Payne law was enacted or
between that date, Aug. 5, and Sept.
1. The new tax will apply to vessels
craft, which have not been admitted
to American registry, whether owned
or chartered.
A tax of 81 per gross ton is fixed by
the new tariff act, but in lieu of this
annual assessment the proprietor of
the yacht may, in his option, pay a
flat tax of So per cent. ad Valorem,
which will excuse him from the pay
ment of any additional annual tax.
Already owners of foreignbuilt yachts
are figuring on these two propositions,
to ascertain which form of tax will be
more economical.
a list of all the foreign-built yachts
in the country is being prepared by the
treasury department. 1t shows the

BASEBALL NOTES.

MatheWson has whtewashed the
Reds three times this season.
Pretty good pitching that of Beebe
and Backman, holding the BrooklynS
to two runs in "a consecutive innings.
The st. Louis Nationals have made
another trade. Charles, the infielder
has been traded to Cincinnati for Mike
Mowrey.
The time of the year has come when
likely pennant winners take pencil and
paper nightly and figure out their
chances from every angle.
Three of the best young players of
the year happen to be second base
men, Collins of the Athletics, Egan of
the Cincinnatis and Miller of the Pitts
burgs.
Why is it that a batter takes an
unholy delight in swatting a slow ball
for a base hit? Probably for the same
reason that a pitcher delights in fool
ing the batter with a slow ball.
Put Griffith on the coaching lines
and he can detect more illegalities in
the opposing pitchers delivery which
the umpires ought to correct than all
the rest of the managers in the game.
Among pitchers who can stand lots
OF work Arellanes of the Boston Red
eoX looms up. He has taken part
IN 10 parts of games and IS whole
games so far this season.
somebody has discovered a new
pitching record for Overall. In %
games TINS season the big Cub has
struck out more men than base hits
nave been made off hm-151 strike
outs and 143 hits.
Jim Mcclure never was a fast mover
himself, but he knows the value Of
speed in modern base ball. He showed
this while he was manager in Boston
and probably realizes that more of the
quality won't hurt the Clevelands.
There is no reason why the st. Louis
Pittsburg deal shouldn't be beneficial to
both teams. The Pittsburg team gets
third baseman who rounds out it's in
neld to greater smoothness, adding a
touch of value for team making a.
pehnant fight. The ST. Louis Club gets
what it much needed, an additional in
Iieloer and also a couple of PLAYERS
likely to be of value in the recon,
struction of the team. Managers don,t
MAKE deals to get the better of some
oedy, but to strengthen tn cir own
teams.

hour or two of fast practice work.
While the Cleveland team has prac-
tically no pennant chances, Mcclure
said he would do his best to give this
city a winning club
