(New York World Ca blegram Special Telegram.) It seems not unlikely that tho pockets of tho wealthy classes of this country will be taxed next year In an unexpected way, ns Iho result of tho prolongation of tho Iloer war. Tho chancellor of tho exchequer, Sir Michael Illcks-neach, Is casting nbout for a now source of revenue for next year's budgot and private Inquiries aro to he mado regarding the effect of Imposing a 10 per cent Import tax on diamonds. Tho chief difficulty would bo In collecting such a duty cn articles occupying so small n space. It Is estimated that such a tax would produco $2,500,000 annually. Tho news of this projected Impost Is causing uneasiness to holders of Do Beers and other diamond shares. Diamonds will bo, of course, largely worn nt King Kd ward's coronation. Possibly Chnncellor Beach had this in view In sotting Inquiries on foot Just now. Fashionable persons appear to bo taking time by the forelock, as not for a long tlmo has thoro boon such a demand for those gems ns at present. Tho Bond street dia mond merchants do a large buslnrsi In lending diamond ornaments for epcclnl oc casions and probably a largo proportion cf tho gems worn nt tho coronatlsn c r monles will And their way back to tho merchants nfterward. With a glutted mar ket nnd a new tax, holders of diamond mining chares would havo a bad time. provinces.

Passengers on tho Volga steamers saw vast droves of cnttlo caugnt between two flres dashing madly Into tho river or psr Ishlng In tho flames.

BERLIN, Sept. 7. (New York World Ca blegramSpecial Tele gram.) An Idea of tho widespread uso of alcohol In Germnny may bo got from certain statistics Just com piled by Prof. Sahnel. He has mado Inves tigations In tho cases of 7,328 school chil dren, only 163 of whom had never tasted nl cchol. Although his Inquiries extended only to children between tho ages of C and 11 years, moro thnn 13 per cent admitted they had been drunk nt loast once, over 11 per cent drink beer, spirits or wlnn dally and t per cent drink nlcohol In some form before going to school. Tho teachers, both men and women, nro unanimous In declaring that tho students who uso nlcohol aro the worst In tho school. A head teacher In Bhcnlsh Prussia had under his supervision cloven chlldron, tho offspring of notorious drinkers, and they were all in tho division for weak-minded scholars. In Turlngla, Bnden nnd elsewhcro thoro nro districts whero tho school chil dren havo n drink of schnapps every mtrn Ing before geolng to school. Prof. Sahnol's Investigations provo that tho girls nro moro addicted to alcohol than are tho boys, or at least confess that they Ilka It better. Iloxfttn .Stock Quotation.
