SAKE TAXED AS
WINE IN FUTURE
Collector Haley Writes To That
Effect From San Francisco
To His Office Here

The information received here by
cable by Joel c. Cohen recently, to the
effect that the internal revenue depart,
ment at Washington has ruled that
hereafter sake is to be taxed on wine
basis, on account Of its high alcoholic
content, instead of as beer as here
tofore, is correct, according to a letter
received here yesterday from John +.
Haley, collector of internal revenue,
who is now on the mainland.
..,NO advices to this effect, however,
have as yet been received by the local
internal revenue Office, but Acting Col
lectr Ralph tombstone has eabled to
San Francisco for instructions.
The new Regulation will hit sake inns
Porters Hard, and the new tax is
much heavier than the old one. 1t is
expected to boost the price of sake and
probably to lessen the amount Of it
consumed here, on account of the high.
or price.

Gardner, the then champion, one down
at the end of IL holes, which is the
limit of nearly every regularly consti.

is no doubt that several golfers. not
