BRANDY BURNED,
BUT TAX MUST Be
PAID, SAYS COURT
Revenue Due When Liquor
Was Removed From DiStiI-
Iery Warehouse EVENT. Gov
eminent Did Seize 1t,

Federal tax must be paid on brandy
which revenue officers had seized and
which was destroyed while in posses
sion of the government This is the
effect of a decision Of Judge w II.
Pope, of the United States district
court. A copy Of the decision was
received yesterday by the United States
district attorneys office here.
The ease in which the decision was
handed down was that of the govern
ment against the Pennington Distil-
lery company ana IS authorized To
take Judgment recovering about $4,000
from the surety company.
Government officers seized about
800 gallons Of brandy in the defend
ant company's distillery warehouse
near Pennington. san Juan county
and transferred it to a private ware
house at Pennington. The latter house
burned down while the brandy was
stored there.
Holds Seizure was Legal.
Judge Pope holds that the tax
should have been paid before the re-
moval of the liquor from the distil-
lery warehouse. The defense was that
the stock had not been removed by
the owners but by the government
without tho consent of the former. The
courts opinion was that il had been
seized legally aud that consequently
the owners should have paid the tax.
The seizure was made after the ar
rcsl of James 7. Fay, n member of
the Pennington Distillcry company.
Who was found guilty In the United
states court of failure to pay liquor
tax lie was then sentenced TO serve
six months IN the federal jail at Santa

TWENTY OTHERS INJURED

the Factory Owners Assert--
Factory Continues Working

Montreal, Quebec.-With a deafen-
ing roar more than 1000 pounds OF
cordite which was in process OF man
ufacture In the munitions factory at
Drummohdville, p. G., for use In
smokeless gun cartridges, exploded,
killing five men, while twenty others.
seriously injured are In the General
and Mount Royal Hospitals here. The
explosion came without warning,
and so far as foresight could provide,
was unavoidable.
The cause was static electricity,
which brought about spontaneous com
bustion in a huge pile OF cordite which
was ready for packing in cartridge
cases. One OF the injured, questioned
as to the cause Of the explosion, said:
I'VE were busy assembling the cor
dite for packing purposes when there
came a sudden fash, binding flame
and roar That's all remember"
Three men were killed outright and
two others died In the hospital. All
the survivors are badly burned and
are suffering also from shock. Little
hope is held out by the hospital au-
thorities for the survival OF more than
two or three.
The company's officials say that
there is not the slightest doubt as to
the cause, and that no foundation
whatever exists for any talk OF incen-
diarism or pot.
Ambulances and medical men and
nurses were rushed from Montreal by
a special train over the Intercolonial
Railway on receipt Of the news, and
the injured were brought to the hospi-
tails within a few hours.
Two Government Inspectors began
an investigation at once. and other offi.
cials from Ottawa will be on the spot
in : short time, -~,s"sa.y. 'atlI:Sfs .lzss
The explosion took place in one OF
the drying houses and two or three
sheds were ruined, but the operations
of the factory will suspended.
