planned as prelude to the amusements

been made as to identity Of the snake
channer, the seeress called Nine.

On Tuesday night by Mr.. Forney Reese,

In several States cigars and pipe
tobacco are taxed at the rate OF !
cent for each Scent retail sale. One
State has fat IS per cent tax on

States tax cigars from SO to $40 per

tax on cigars ranges from 81 to $3.50

tive $6,000,O0O revenue deficit in the
coming fiscal year might be increased
to $8,000,000 in view OF recent
developments.
II the so-called economy move"
results in cutting appropriations
either 10 or IS per cent, as has beer
suggested, it was pointed out the Dis
trict would lose either 100000 or
$750,000 in the Federal payment of
s5,000,000 as provided in the 1898
District supply bill as it passed the
House. Since reduction in the gen.
eral District appropriations would not
affect the Federal Treasury, advocates
Of the 10 and IS per cent cuts have
suggested the proposed slash apply
only to the Federal payment.
In addition to this potential loss,
President Roosevelt sent to the Sem
ate last week deficiency and supple
mental District estimates totaling
$477 900, which, II approved, must be
added to the anticipated shortage.
Then there is the possibility the Sem
ate may restore the 81 100000 cut the
House made in the appropriation for
salaries of per diem workers by virtue
OF legislative rider whereby they
would be paid for the actual number
OF hours worked.
