made that a 600 foo: sewer be built
out Marshall street. extended tn a
point near Hermitage road for the
benefit of this ard other business
plants to be erected in that immediate
locality. The request was granted.
and special appropriation Of 1881
recommended for the purpose.
Business manager Dabney, of the
Chamber of CoIHHerce,-~sp speaking on
behalf of the promoters of the new
project, asked in addition that Mar
shall street extended be put into con-
dition for heavy hauling. such as will
result from erection of manufacturing
plants. The committee also acquiesced
in this proposition.
Process is Simple.
The plan of the company is to man.
ufacture briauet coal from coal dust,
getting product very much like an
thracite and declared to be equally as
servicea bic for general fuA purposes.
A peculiar kind Of -four paste Is used
in the process for binding. and ii Is

HUNDREDS FAIL
/. TO MAKE REPORT
FEDERAL AUTHORITIES ON TRAIL
OF DELINQUENT VIRGINIA
CORPOR
NEW SUBJECT TO TAX
LISTS OF COMPANIES GO TO HANDS
or DISTRICT ATTORNEYS ON
OR BEFORE FIRST DAY
OF DECEMBER.

According to the local office of the
Collector of Internal Revenue there
are still three hundred and seventy
five corporations in the forty-slN
counties comprising the Eastern DIS
trict of Virginia which have not COM
piled with the federal statute, and
made their annual report to the fed
eral government.
According to a communication re-
ceived by Collector Lowry yesterday
from the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, all such corporations as have
not made satisfactory proposals COM
promising their Liabilities to the gov
eminent viii be turned over to the
tender mercies OF the district attorney
and the federal grand jury after the
first day OF December.
1t Is probable that Of the corpora
tons In the list about one-fourth are
not now IN existence. and IL is DOUBT
full that five per cent. OF the remain
der are subject To tax under the pro-
vision OF the tariff law that only
such corporations as earn in excess OF
live thousand dollars year must pay
a tax AL however, are compelled to
report to Collector Lowrys office. and
those which fan SO to do are liable To
n fine ranging from one thousand To
ten thousand dollars. These reports
should have reached the collector $
hands by the first day OF last March.
The following letter WAS received by
the local office from the Commissioners
OF Internal Revenue yesterday. and is
reproduced here for the benefit of all
corporations which have thus far fall
ed to comply with the law
Referring to those corporations
within your district which failed To
file the returns called for under Sec
tion 3s tariff act of August !, 1893
known as the corporation tax law, this
office is of the opinion that ample time
has been allowed for each one OF such
corporations desirins, 10 DO so. to
take advantage of the right Of making
an offer af compromise under section
1929. revised statutes. Ii Is requested
therefore that You prepare a list Of
companies reported by you as delin-
Quent. and hich have made no offer
to compromise their liabilities. and
furnish such last to the proper United
States District Attorney on or before
December i, with recommendation that
The usual proceedings in such cases be
instituted.
