£ho«ed that vefeipts for the fiscal
year just closed toUiHeci $S!!4,0ii'« less
tli.aii for tho previjnis year, and most
tf this deeUne was due to the mark
ed cecrea.«e in taxs.^ colleeted on dis
tilled spirits. Detailed statemiisns for
Afe month of June are not yet avail-
sblc. but in the first 11 months of
the fiscal year there was a decrease
of $3,734,857 in the income fros'ii the
:)ianufacture and sale of distillad U-
(juor. due in part to reduction in the
nuns' er of licenses. Estimates on the
June receipts indicated the total de
cline in distilled liquor tax, for 12
months will probably be |4,250,000.
j Receipts from tobacco taxes showed
Sn approvimate increase of $2,800,000
over last year. This gain is due al-
n’.ost entirely tc a phenomenal in-
/«ase in the cigarette sales. Tho gain
in receipts from fer aented liquo- beer
f ’’/r.nd the like, was about $860,000.

SCENE OK WI.Ln'idSORDER.
the scene following the explosion
was one of confusion and uproar. A
crowd had surg^ed forward toward the
tive, but was prevented from reach
irg the scene of it because of 3tt,eral
fences. When the explosion occurrcd
there was a pell meli rush away fror.i
the place and several persons Averci
more or less brui.>^d up. Mmbers of
the police departmeiti li:
swer to a call and kept the crowd.-;
from crowding round the injured un
til they could be removed to the ho.^-
pital, which, however, was accomp-
lifhed quickly.
CASTS GLOOM OVER THE CITT.
The tragedy, one of the nioit dis
astrous that has ever occurred in
Charlotte, has cast a glooip over the
city, as the dead firemen were men
of universr.l popularity and very com
petent r.s firemen. The city hHll and
the three fire stations were draped
in mourning after the disaster. Chief
