Walker of Walker- vllle, and Peter Ryan of Toronto, had an interview with Sir Henri Joly to-_day on; the subject of the evaporation of spirits. while in process of maturing and before it can be placed on the market. It appears that Hiram Walk- er_ 8.: Sons mature in wooden barrels the spirits which they manufacture, while many other distillers keep it in metal tanks. The Government always makes an allowance of from two to five per cent. for evaporation. but Walker Sons con- tend they are entitled to better terms from the department in view of the greater eva- poration caused by the manner in which their product is kept. The Controller of Inland Revenue looked carefully into the representations made to him. He admit- ted that the question was surrounded with difficulties. and while on the face of it there appears to be some ground for mak- ing a conceSsion for the additional evapora- tion, yet on the other wad. it was ad- mitted that the firm secured better prices for the whisky which was matured in wood. He promised to carefully look in- to the matter. . ., n-_L [0 pwtcau VI. ucwayu'vaw- Postmaster: have been reminded that they cannot exercise too much caution redirecting (Le. in, changing the addresses of) letters that have come to their offices for delivery; inasmuch as it any loss oe- ,A_ _-___ -_ -nnmcn" The other day your correspondent gave publicity to a paragraph indicating the in- tention of the l'ostoftice Department in regard to newspapers sent to alleged sub- scribers and refused by them.
