The letter ie written to T. m. Me Michael, auditor of Orangeburg County, and la aa follows: Answering your letter of Decem ber 8, in which you enclose the in- come tax return for llll^and request that I pass upon the exemptions claimed therein, I beg to say that this is your duty as coufity auditor You are to apply to each case as It comes up, the principle* laid down in the instructions already issued from this offlee, and I think you could FMLDKRm ROQK ON BLEASE to my letter to you of March 9, 1909, together with the recent circular sent you. However, I have looked over the return sent me, from which it appears that the taxpayers proposed paying upon their ner Income, instead 0/ the gross income required by law. This, of course, is wrong. For In stance: They state they received 15,018.75 rents from city property which they rent out; from this they deduct as non-taxable |1,407.66 for taxes paid, $374 for Insurance upon property, and $1,048.92 Interest upon debts that they owe, and $501.88 for expenses of repairs, collecting rents, etc. “The Items of Insurance and In terest are clearly not to be deducted as expenses of carrying on business. This Is a small flx;d charge upon the capital owned by the taxpayer “The $501.88 for repairs and col lections should be looked into and so much as was paid out as commis sions for -renting the property and collecting the rents is to be deducted from the gross rents as a part of the necessary expenses In their produc tion. But nothing should be deduct ed on account of repairs and Im provements to the property. “I doubt whether the taxes which are deducted in this return are the taxes only upon the real estate. It appears that these taxes are tne taxes upon all of the taxpayers' property, and do not pertain to these rents alone. "Aa to the estimated expenses of the taxpayers' warehouse business, of course the actual expenses of such business are to be d« ducted from the gross Income made in such business. But no deduction car. be made on ac count of payments to pastor s salary or charity or on account of bad debts or accounts lost. These are In no sense a part of the expenses of pro ducing the Income from the business. “You should also look Into what Is the actual income from this ware house business. The taxpayers state It Is 5 per cent, profit on $100,000 estimated sales. This is very unsatis factory They should be required to submit their books to you and show re** T.AT*.a Mr.*.* .

President\aft turned over to the Senate Monday the taak of complet ing the abrogation of the treaty of 1832 with Russia, because of alleged discriminations against American cit izens of Jewish faith. The House on Saturday passed a resolution demand ing this action. Ignoring the House of Representa tives, the President sent a message to the Senate announcing that on Friday last, he had caused notice to be for warded to St. Petersburg that the United States desired the treaty to end January 1, 1913. This notifica tion was officially banded to the rep resentative of the Russian Govern ment Sunday. Mr. Taft asked the Senate to ratify and give effect to his action. The foreign affairs committee of the Sen- .te voted unanimously to report a res- olution of ratification, couched in dip lomatic terms, and Senator Lodge of fered It later in the Senate. There was every reason to believe that the resolution would be pushed through, inasmuch as the Senate com mittee, as an act of courtesy to the House, had decided that the lower ranch of Congress should be asked to concur In the Senate’s action. Senator Heyburn, of Idaho, how ever, took the floor and after pro testing vigorously against hasty ac tion, asserted his right under the rules and by formal objection’ threw further consideration of the matter over until Tuesday, when It was tak en up and the President's suggestions were carried out. Democratic leaders, both In the Senate and the House, are determined to claim credit for the abrogation cf the treaty.

People who for weeks unknowingly lived near enough dynamite to blow up the neighborhood and whose chil dren skated over the floors of a va- vant house in which nttro-glycerlne had been spilled, tertifled In the Gov ernment’s investigation of the dyna mite conspiracy before the Federal grand jury at Indianapolis, Ind., on Tuesday. Witnesses from Muncie, Ind., were questioned concerning what they knew of tho renting of a house in Muncie to Ortle McManlgal in De cember, 1909. After paying rent for several months in advance, McMani- gal stored it with boxes and sawdust in which he packed nitro-glycerlne. The fact that the rent had been paid and the house always In dark ness, was visited periodically by a stranger, created an element of mys tery, which still was unsolved even after the place again deserted was thrown open and school children skated over the floors upon which appeared grease spots. Later It was found the spots were caused by nitro-glycerlne and ex perts were called to destroy the ex plosive power. Among the witnesses from iMuncle were Mrs. Elizabeth Hlner, Isaac Grant and a manufactur er who sold boxes to’McWanigal. The evidence was traced by the Investi gators, n6t only to confirm McMani- gal's confession, which implicates John J. and James B. McNamara, but also to bring out who, if any, as sisted them. Other expressions of horror at dis covering they had been living near explosives came from members of the family of D. Jones, a farmer near In dianapolis. For a long time prior to his arrest on April 22, 1911, J. J. Mcamara, secretary-treasurer of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers, on the pretext that he was storing old rec ords, kept In Jones’ barn, a piano box filled with dynamite, from which Mc Manlgal replenished his supply when going on dynamiting expeditions. The piano box still had twenty-five pounds of dynamite in it, when Jones, Texas, and Hitchcock, of Nebraska, the latter a member of the foreign dl « ,n * on hlB ,arm > waB »PPri»ed of r figsrt—busg Hsrald says ad- informatlon was obtained lay concerning Thomas P.

You should as certain the exact amount of gross sales, deduct the exact cost of the goods sold, which will give you the gross profit or Income; from that de duct the actual necessary expenses of the business producing this income, in accordance with the instructions given you. “1 notice in the expenses proposed ,to be deducted from the Income from rents and warehouse are $735 for farm expenses. These are clearly no part of the expenses of producing rents or warehouse Income. While the taxpayer charges $735 on farm expenses he returns no gross Income whatever from the farm, hence the farm expenses are not to be consid ered at all as an exemption except in connection with the Income from that farm which the taxpayers failed to return. Ascertain what was the gross Income from the farm, and if it was more than the expenses, add the gross income after deducting the farm ex penses to the taxpayers’ taxable in come.'’. V IN CHARLESTON.

It has been Impossible to get at the real facts of the case; but, it Seems that Mr. Turner was to Augus ta and received the amount of money stated. "He did not leave for his home till some time after dark, and was robbed at the place and of the amonnt stated. It is said that on ac- ceunt of the darkness.

Senator Culberson ac cused President Taft of trying to strip the House of one of its prerogatives and asserted that the President was trying to steal Democratic “thunder.” In his message to the Senate, Pres ident Taft transmitted a copy of the letter which American Ambassador Guild, at St. Petersburg, had trans mitted to the Russian foreign offlee. n it was expressed the view of the United States that the old treaty no longer met the political principles or commercial needs of the t^o nations and should be terminated. Senator Culberson ssld Monday night that he could not venture a pre diction as to how far the Democrats of the Senate would go In their oppo sition to the Lodge resolution, or any other resolution approving the action of the President in taking the matter out of the hands of Congress. Al lowing the adoption of the Sulzer res olution in the Huv.he. » ^■Wffels a feeling among the Dem ocrats,’’ he said, “that the President la trying to steal their thunder. I think the country ought to be made acquainted with the facts.” The Senate upon convening lost no time in taking up the question. Im mediately after the reading of the Journal, an executive clerk from the White House appeared with the Pres ident’s message and It was at once read to the Senate, receiving unusual ly close attention. With the message disposed of, Sen ator Lodge presented the report of the committee on foreign relations, with the resolution provided as a sub stitute- for the House declaration. In speaking of the matter the Washington correspondent says polit ical Washington is an agog over the effort of President Taft to take the lead in the movement to abrogate the Russian treaty, after the House bad acted for abrogation against the Executive’s expressed wish that the matter be deferred until after the holidays. It Is understood that a great game cf politics is being played, with the credit for abrogation aa the prize. The Democratic leaders, while not objecting to such alterations in the words of the House resolution as may seem advisable, are Inclined to re sent the President’s effort to disre gard the House In the handling of the subject. There la a feeling that the Presi dent unwarrantedly affronted the House when he sent his message of Monday to the Senate only. There will be fireworks In Congress about this before the holiday recess, unless all signs fall. ♦ ♦ ♦ ROW ABOUT DIVORCED WIFE. r- The Present Husband Shot the For- - I • mer Husband. “Mysterious Billy’’ Smith, formerly a well known pugilist, who was shot Sunday night at Portland, Oregon, by Captain A.

Thinks Woodrow Wilson Would Beat President Taft. Francis J. Ileney, fighting lawyer and reformer from San Francisco, says it is his emphatic belief that if Governor Woodrow Wilson and Pres ident Taft are opposing candidates for the presidency next year the New Jersey executive will walk away with the plum. He doubts, however, if Taft will even be nominated, as the office-holders, who form the backbone of his support at the present, time are likely to become panic-stricken when they discover that the President has little or no chance to succeed him self.
