Nevada, and den. A .1. Warner, pre-,1-
dent of the Hlmetalli s league, will
meet in ( hicago. It is expected that
they will be juincJ there by three nr
four other prominent np istles of free
silver, and the party will proceed to
Denver. Col., arrivin',, in that city on
April IS. It is not proposed to do any
missionary work en route, and an itin-
erary of their trip beyond Denver lias
not been arranged. It is known, how-
ever, that several speeches will be
made in Colorado, and it is expected
that Invitations will he received there
from a larjfo number of eitie- where
they will he requested to address mass
meetings and expound the doctrines of
tile new party. While the matter has
hot been definitely determined, it is
more than likely that the party, under
the chaperonage of Senator .lones, will
continue their trip through Nevada,
California. Washington. Oregon. Mon-
tana and Idaho. A special point, it is
said, will be made to spend some time
in Utah, and leave no stone unturned
which might contribute to the election
of two silver senators from that new
state, and possibly place it in the
fourth party column at tile next na-
tional election. Utah, at this stage of
the game, would be quite a valuable
addition.
A Postal Inspector Mum.
Washington, April 11.— Chief In-
spector Wheeler, of the post office de-
portment, refuses to say anything about
the stamp counterfeiting in Chicago,
though he has received several tele-
grams concerning the affair. It was
learned from the other officials, how-
ever, that the extent of the counter-
feiting has been over-estimate 1 1 bird
Assistant l’ostmaster-l leneral Craig
says that counterfeit stamps have cur-
ried letters through themnilsnnd have
lieen .anceled, but says that stamp
counterfeiting cannot be carried on to
any great extent as the cost of making
Stamps and the difficulty in disposing
of them is so great as to render tbo
counterfeiting of little profit.

Washington, April 11. A general

THE REVENUE 1*0 ST.
Senator l’efTer*i» Estimate of the Effect of
the Income Tax Law Decision.
Washington, April 11—The debates
yn the income tax. while the 'dll f"r
,ts imposition was undei.....nsidcr-
ition in congress, are almost bar-
•en of figures showing the compur-
itive importance of the incomes from
•cuts and interest on county, municipal
ind state bonds in furnishing a revenue
jO tlte government. It does not appear
.hat this matter was touched upon in
.he house discussions and it was only
casually referred to in the senate.
Senator Aldrich, of Rhode Island, pre- ,
pared a statement, placing the revenue
likely to be derived through the in-
come tax at 9100.0 11,0)1. and crediting
rents nnd public bonds witli about 30
per cent, of this amount.
Senator Belter, who made the princi-
pal speech in the senate in advocacy of
an income tax. did not go into this
branch of the question at all. but ho
said yesterday in an interview that he
was of the opinion that between So.-
000,000 and *10,000,000of revenue would
have been derived from these two
sources if the supreme court had al-
lowed them to stand, and ho added
that he thought that this amount
would have been about two-.hirds of
the total revenue produced by the in-
come tax, as he (Better) had figured the
total at S15.ooo.ooo.
"The census reports show," lie said,
"that 52 per cent, of the people of the
United States ure renters, and it is to
lie inferred that this proportion of tin-
land is occupied bv renters. The land

ments added, is put down as worth

to S900.213.053. Take one quarter of

Chicago, April 11.—Counterfeit 2-
rent postage stamps are rapidly aecu-
i inulating in the hands of Capfc. Porter,
„f the United States secret service,
I two more packages containing 5,750
j i»ach having been captured yesterday.
[ Arrests are expected to follow in a
j short time. It is now believed the per*
! sons implicated in the matter may he
found in Chicago and all the principal
cities of the United States. All tlie
packages seized were received from
Buffalo, N. Y., by the Wells-Fartfo Ex-
press Co. They came from the “Ca-
nadian Novelty Co.,” of Hamilton, Ont.
Postmaster Hesing had the sample of
the spurious stamps on his desk to-day.
••Thev are extraordinary counterfeits,
he said. “One million counterfeit
stamps such as these could pass
through this office every day and not
be detected. Where we handle 1.200,-
000 letters daily, cancelling them on
machines which have a capacity of
40,000 per hour, you see how it is
next to impossible to examine the
stamps. This makes it all the more
dangerous in the line of counterfeit-
ing. When one puts this counterfeit
by the side of a #ood stamp, the dif-
ference can readily he detected. I he
bad stamp is larger anil the printing is
not so good, yet good enough and near
enough in size to deceive any unsus-
pecting man in the world. What the
effect of this discovery will be I cannot
tell. The present 2-cent issue will un-
doubtedly be recalled, but I have no
authority for that statement further
than my judgment of what the govern-
ment must do to protect itself. It may
not be necessary to make a new design.
A new color might be used.
Capt. Stuart said that he regarded
the purchasers of the stamps as inno-
cent, and would make no arrests of
them.
The first counterfeit 2-cent post-
age stamps seized at the Wells-tnrgo
express office here were addressed to
Nathan Herzog, cigar dealer. He ex-
plained that he had bought them from
the “Canadian Novelty and Supply C o..
of Hamilton, Ont., paying Siou for what
purported to be $115 worth of good
stamps. _____
