Two Negroes.

EVERGREEN. Ala, August S.-Threat-
ening to lynch Albert Johnson and John
Manuel, negroes, who were In jail mere
on the charge of being implicated In the
killing Of Jesse Baldwin, an aged farmer
at Wilcox station July Z, mob gathered
at 2:3O o'clock yesterday morning and
surrounded the Jail, with the evident OBJ
ject Of carrying their threats into execu-
ton.
Sheriff j. F. Irwin. however, forestalled
any attempt at violence by calling on the
officers of the lcal military company,
Company K. 1st Infantry. Alabama Ma
tional Guard, for assistance, and the ap-
pearance of the troops served soon AFTER
ward to quell the mob spirit, the men re-
turning to their homes.
Fearing a further outbreak last night
Sheriff Irwin and a deputy took the two
negroes to Mobile for safekeeping.
Charley Henderson, Charley and Jerry

Corporation Tax Revenue.

1T is interesting to note that the
revenue derived from the corporation tax
feature of the tariff law was $27 O9O, 1874, a
sum only 100000 less than the amount
assessed.
There was expended on the construc-
ton of the Panama canal in the year
which ended last Saturday $35, 2S3, O18.5 %,
so that if the Treasury were reimbursed
today from the proceeds of the sale of a
part of the authorized issue of Panama
bonds the Treasury working balance
would be increased to $15O,OOO,OOO.
1T is pointed out also that the rise
in receipts from dutiable imports is due
not alone to the increased productivity
Of the new tariff law, but to improved
administrative methods. Lax methods no
longer prevail at the customs houses. At
the port Of New York land a firmer rein
than heretofore is held over the other
ports also) the revenues have been aug
mented to the extent, it is estimated. of
twelve million dollars, wholly as the re-
suit Of the rehabilitation of the service
and the improvement in its morals

Treasury Officials JubiIant
Over Figures for First Full
Year of Operation.

Treasury officials are jubilant over the
operations Of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
law for its first full year, which ended
last Saturday. The law had not been in
operation a full year when the fiscal year
closed June 30 last.
A statement made by the Treasury to-
day shows that for the year ended last
Saturday the total receipts Of the gov
eminent were as follows:

Surplus, $2O,214,O2s. 80.

The total ordinary disbursements for
the same period were $65S, $3.50, 7S7.O2, the
surplus of ordinary receipts over ordi-
nary expenditures, under the first full
year of the law, being $50, PA, 02S. 90
Without the corporation tax the deficit
for the year would have been less than
100000. The statement issued by the
department says in part:
The ordinary receipts for the first full
year Of the new tariff law were greater
by almost $15,OOO.OOO than the ordinary
receipts during the fiscal year 1907. when
the total was 1868, 125, 659.92; and the
fiscal year 1907 was the banner year in
point of receipts, it's total having ex-
ceeded that Of any other year in the his
tory of the government by almost $780,
100000. Hence. the Payne-Aldrich law
produced in its first year a revenue
greater by 75,OOO.OOO than the sum col
lected in any other year of our national
life, except the year 1907. 1t will be OBJ
served that whereas there was deficit
of $58, 734,955 in the ordinary operations
Of the government in the fiscal year end
ing June 80. 1909, there was a surplus in
the year ending last Saturday of more
than $40, 900. 600
