POLICE RESERVES NEEDED IN NEW YORK
 TO CONTROL PURCHASERS OF TAX STAMPS
Washington Forced to Tegr h All Collectors and Agents To Date All Returns November 30 Until They Are Able
 To Cope With Number of Applicants.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Police re- serves were needed this afternoon to restrain crowds which besieged th United States internal revenue offices here in attempts to buy new war tax stamps A solid line of would-be pur- chasers extended for blocks, growing increasingly restive as the hours passed.
 When officers Teopened at 3:O0 o'clock after an hours recess to give the collectors an opportunity to count the money received and send it to the bank, SO fierce a rush was made for the stamp windows that police men already on duty could not cope with it By efforts Of reserves the crowd was brought to order again and the sale continued until all who remained in the line had obtained stamps.
 At the offices in the customs houses a similar crowd struggled, although not so boisterously, to obtain stamps. As a result of an appeal to the treas. ury department in Washington two relief branch offices were opened nearby and were immediately swamp ed by the rush.

 The fact that ten men, four whites and six negroes are in the death chamber and he may have to pull the lever sending them all to death does not seem to worry him. It was this prospect which caused Castling to resign although he admitted the place had been a comfortable berth and he has no other position in prospect and expects times to be hard
 "Of course no one likes to kin a fellow man" Dempsey said. "lt is a disasreeable task but it is all in the d2v's work and Ill do it like any other disagreeable tas kassigned to me.

 George w. Perkins, chairman of the executive committee. said no statement of future action will be made by anyone authorized. A boom for Hiram W.

Declares Dividend of Fifty Cents Payable December 20-Action Was Not One of Greatest Surprises.
REVIEW FORETOLD THE
 DIRECTORS' ACTIONS
Visit of Directors to Bisbee Ajos Properties Prompted Declaration.Company Is Financially Able to Pay.

As foretold exclusively in the Re view, Calumet and Arizona has de- clared Christmas present to its stockhc ders. In the meeting of the directors of the Bisbee company in Chicago Monday, 1t was decided that in view Of The prosperous condition of the company at the present time and in view of the bright outlook for the future, the company will pay div idends Of fifty cents on December 20. While the announcement of the diyi- dend is not wholly surprise due to the publicity given by the Review of the contemp ated action. the dividend declaration comes to stockholders as an agreeable donation from Santa Claus, and at time of the year when such wndfalis are always more than appreciated
 The action of the di ectors of the company fdlews their short yearly inspection visit 70 tkef, 'rizona pro paiUes ln a manner the declaration ! of dividends is directly due to the visit in this district ol one week past and was declared at a meeting held while a majority of the directors were enIoute to their homes in Calu- met and other eastern points, from their short stay in Bisbee. and the ' Ajos
 Here they found their properties in the best Of condition. They found also in the Ajos that they have noth- ing in the world to complain of and that prospects for the largest propo- sition in the southwest continue to become brighter With these salient facts on which to hase an action, and with assurances of a market for their production of copper for the next two or three months, the declaration of the dividend was natural conse- ,quence
 While the dividend. is be.ow the usual disbursement of the company for the quarter it is normally equal to the usual disbursement when com pared with the amount of quarterly output, and the curtal ment of produc tion and work. At the same time it comes in place of the suspended divi. dend which the company would have declared in September had not the prospects at that time demanded close running and actual economy.
 From a standpoint of financial abil ity to meet the disbursement the C. X A. is vel situated While the eN. penditures of the company in the past in meeting the obligations undertak en in the Ajos have somewhat crimp ed the treasury of Calumet and Ari zona, their heavy ownership in the Superior and Piusburg gives the company substantial margin from which they can easily meet the smal dividend and stils maintain sub stantial surplus.
 What action, if any, was taken by ! the directors relative to the plans for financing the New Cornelia pro perties in the Ajos, is not yet knowI in the district It is felt however
 that the company, in view of thei , past experiences, and in view of ex i presions by seyer;i of the directors
 will follow the stock issue plan fo a putting their enormous low grad, f property on substantial footing.
