LIQUOR SALES SHOW BIG DROP.

Revenue Returns Reveal Heavy De-
crease in Consumption Of Spirits.
Washington, June 5.-Statistics made
public by the treasury department
show that there have been material
decreases in the amount of distilled
spirits consumed in the United States.
Internal revenue collections on
spirits are decreasing at the rate OF
approximately $1.250,000 a month, de-
spite the fact that wines are paying a
high tax as a result Of the emergency
"war tax" law enacted by the last
congress.
Figures made public at the treasury
department today show that revenues
derived from taxes on spirits during
the period from July I, 1914, to May
/, 1915, were 121,S04,705, as against
S135.518,495 during the same period a
year ago, a decrease during the ten
months Of $13.713,790. During the
month of April this year taxes on
spirits amounted to $10,3S4,S53, as
against s11,6S9.O33 in April last year.
a. decrease in the single month of
$1,2S4.1S0. The decrease during the ten
months Of over 100000 Is recorded
despite the fact that the war tax" In
creased the wine tax receipts by ST.
s94O. 9S2.
Because no ''war tax was placed on
whisky, while a heavy one was put on
beer, the revenue from malt products
show a material increase. The reve-
nues from taxes on fermented liquors
during the period July /, 1914, to May
/, 1915, amounted to $62,750,172, as
against s5s,667.72S In the same period
the year before, an increase Of $685.
444. During April Of the present year
taxes on fermented liquors amounted
to $7,574,66s. against s 5,109,115 in April,
1914.
Less tobacco is being used than
heretofore. From July l, 1914, to May
l, 1915. the taxes collected on tobacco
amounted to $65.65s,541. During the
same months Of the year before they
amounted to SS6.703,901. The decrease
during the later months, as compared
with others was s1,O50,360.

Rerlin. via London. June 5.-Reports
from tho dalician front indicate that
the Austro-German troops are now IN
complete possession of all parts OF
przemysl. The Russians contested
.tubbornly each advance, but at length
were driven from the eastern ana
southern forts, which were the last to
fall.
II is generally admitted that the
larger part Of the Russian forces were
able to effect retreat eastward oy
defending the positions toward the
south. This checked the attacking
army Of General Won Doehm- Ermoll
and temporarily prevented the COM
plete encircling of the city, altho the
railroad line along which the retrea.
occurred was under the fire OF neio
guns. which were too far away to De
effective.
City Suffers Little.
Apparently the city suffered NUS
during the Russian occupation. huge
stores OF provisions were recovered
and considerable amounts OF war ma
terials were captured. Immediately
after the occupation Of Przemysl, Cen
eral Won Mackensen's army pressed
eastward. It encountered the Russian
rear guards on the heights near
Modyka, where fighting still is in pro-
eress. The Teutonic allies have sue
ceeded, however, in Joining their forces
along . continuous front, moving east
ward, which has relieved the dihicuis
position Of the north wing. The only
serious opposition which is expected
probably VIII be offered near the
arodek lake, south Of Lemberg. where

Of General Linsingen, moving nortn-
eastward from Stry, will be able to
threaten the Russians from the rear II
they offer such resistance.
