REBATES TO BE PAID SOON MANY SMALL Aft Ol NTS (.ROWING OIT OF THK WAR TAX. Tobaeeo and Snuff Dealers Have Presented UO.OiM) la I ihm Box of ( IKr That Contained glM. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, July L'T.-liiteresting figures relative to the consumption of milk in six of the largest cities in Indiana are contained in a report made public at the Department of Agriculture to-day. The daily consumption of milk in Indianapolis is estimated at 12,000 gallons, or .57 per capita. In addition to 8.U00 gallons of skimmed milk used in the city. "The superior quality of the milk supplied in Indianapolis," the report says, "is due .'u no small measure to a plan put In operation by the health officials a few years ago whervby the dairmymen who kept their dairies up to a high standard received certificates of approval. These were helpful In obtaining new trade, and were therefore generally sought after, with the result that sanitary methods were Introduced Into many places where they would not otherwise have been f jund." Evansville consumes 2,500 gallons of milk per day. Fort Wayne 2,480 gallons, Terre Haute 1,000 gallons. South Bend 1,000 gallons and Richmond 1,250 gallons. x a x A statement showing the status of elalmi of the several States on account of the war with Spain was made public by the treasury auditor to-day. According to official figures the claim of Wisconsin was for the sum of $128,917. According to the official figures Indiana claimed 1274,639 and was allowed $151.018. The amount disallowed was $15,071, and the amount suspended and pending payment is fl07,949. The total claims of the States, based on expenses entailed in equipping and mobilizing troops for service in the Spanish war, were $6,657,027. At this time there is pending and in courso of auditing $&4,tfti. xxs ( Officials of the Internal Revenue Bureau say that they will begin the payment of tho claims which arose out of the rebates granted on tobacco and snuff under the war revenue repeal bill of the last Congress in a few days. The accounts have all been made up by the Internal Revenue Bureau and have been sent to the auditors of the Treasury for adjustment. The auditors have been at work on them for nearly a month and have about completed their task. As soon as the last uf them have been audited they will be returned to the bureau and the issuance of warrants will begin. Some Idea of the extent of the task is given by the statement that in all there were 60,000 claims made for rebate of tax on tobacco and snuff. The total amount of the refuud will be about $3.000.000. The claims vary from $20 to $l,00u. H.ich of them involved careful calculation. The rebate had to be made to the fractional portion of a cent. Many of the claims, in fact hundreds of them, had to be returned two or three times to have them corrected. The experience of the bureau officials in this ronntvtion leads to the conclusion that the tobacco and suuff deajsrg of the country are poor mathematicians. While the affidavits show that the claims were made in good faith the actuaries of the treasury and the expert accountants found that a large per rentage of the tiO.OUO claims were calculated wrong and varied from a cent to $2 from the amounts for which they should have been made. Every meaus has been taken to expedite the claims. It is the expectation to have the warrants all issued withiu the next sixty days. xxx The officers of the Treasury Department have a complicated case to decide relative to the Importation of skilled labor. It comes from Philadelphia. One of the big engraving and Jewelry concerns of that city asks that it be permitted to import from England a number of skilled engravers, who are qualified to do carving of heraldic devices. The concern sets up the claim that it should be permitted to do this under the provisions of the contract labor law which holds that where such skilled labor is not obtainable in this country and it does not come into conflict with our labor, importations of skilled meu is permissable. The company says in its communication that the finest engravers in the United States are in the employ of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing at Washington. They point to the fact, however, that even these highly skilled men are unable to do certain classes of work for which there is a great demand. To make their case more striking they say that rec jtrjr when the government decided that the great seal of the United States should be re newed and a new die cut it was found there was no one in the United States to do the work, except an employe of the Philadelphia concern. It accepted the contract for cutting the seal anew but had only one man who could do It. and he will be employed on it for three months or more and will be unable to do anything else. The secretary of the treasury has taken the matter under advisement. JOHN E. MONK. ' NOBODY WANTED IT. Box of C'igara Containing; 100, Which Was Regarded as a Bribe. WASHINGTON, July Vi. The secretary of war has sent to the Treasury Department a box of cigars and $100 which was received from the department with thanks, it appears that Colonel Clen). chief of the received from the department of Texas, of cignra on his desk and upon opening it discovered it was from a contractor who was doing some work under quartermaster's supervision. In the box was the money. The colonel was very indignant and referred the matter to den. Fred Grant, commanding the department. The contractor acknowledged sending the cigars by a messenger boy but said he did not know snythinK about the money. General Grant thought that under such circumstances nothing could be done bv prosecuting the man for attempted bribery and sent the cigars ami the money to the War department. From the War Department they were sent to the treasury, wher? all unclaimed funds are sent. The ( Ignis subsequentl) were sold for $2 and the money placed with the PHt Net Bank for Charleatotrn.

gonthern Railwaya Are Forehaalnsi Many I.ocotuotl ea. ST. IAOUIS. July 27.-The Republic tomorrow will say: "Almost without exception the railway systems In the South and Southwest have placed larger orders for locomotives, most of them to be delivered by the time the crops are to be moved. It is said Ilm Ihesi orders are the result of experience of many of the lines in the South and Southwest last year at the time of the. moving of the crops, when an almost unequaled blockade Is not so much from the lack of cars as from the need of power to move the cars. Since then many of the roads have been receiving locomotives as fast as they could secure them, but even with the- additional equipment it is believed that the enormous crop of wheat, corn and COttOll will require much more motive BOW r than is available to take it to market."

TRACKS ARE BEING LAID

KURTH WESTER LIE PLACES ITS STEEL Ifl t'RAW KORUSV U.I.I'.. Uld Injunction Is Void aud the Judges Having; Jurledlctlon Are AwayWork Is Belüg Pushed. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind , July 27.-The Indianapolis & Northwestern Traction Company for the fourth time began to lay j track in this city at 4 o'clock this morning, and by this evening the track is laid on one square of Main street in the courthouse square. Twice the company has tried to do this and was stopped both times by injunctions, but It looks very much as if the work will be completed this time. The Northwestern line has been given a franchise in the city, but the Council has not given it the streets wanted, but. Instead, granted an exclusive franchise to the Consolidated Traction line in the city, agreeing that the Northwestern shall come in on the Consolidated tracks, and paying therefor the sum of 2 cents for each passenger carried in or out of the city. This the Northwestern people refused to accept in place of the use of the streets for its own road, and this has been the cause for all of the trouble over this matter. On May 29 the first attempt was made to lay the track, but the ttre wagon pumped water on the workingmen and the city entered suit. On June 17 the Northwestern people again came here with a force of 3U0 men to put down the track and as the case had been set for hearing before Judge Stimson, of Terre Haute, the judge here refused to have anything to do with the case. As the track would be down before the matter could be taken before the Terre Haute judge, the city dismissed the suit, and turned right around- and refiled the same papers in a new suit so as to force Judge West to issue an injunction, which he did. Then the Northwestern filed a cross-com-plalnt and made the city and the Consolidated line parties to It, and also got an injunction against the Consolidated. Then the city dismissed its suit and the case, on motion of the Consolidated, was sent to the United States Circuit Court, under Judge Anderson. As Judge Anderson was related to some of those Interested in the controversy, he gave the case to Judge Baker, who is to hear the matter when he gets back from Europe. When the city dismissed its suit against the Northwestern line the injunction based on its suit was void, and that Is why the Northwestern people laid their tracks today. The Northwestern people say that they will get the track down, as Judge Anderson is In Michigan and Judge Baker in Europe, and they alone have the right to enjoin them. The county judge is also in Michigan. Steel Arrives a Month Late. Srial l the Indianapolis Journal. SPICELAND. Ind., July 27.
