Scott's Ruinous Ruling Cripples Mining Stock Trade
Fragments report a July 15 1898 strike at the war tax on mining stocks by Commissioner Scott paralyzing the industry. Brokers face bankruptcy as holders cannot dispose of shares and brokers cannot be found to handle 100 share lots. The San Francisco Post notes the absurdity of taxing by face value and a representative may go to Washington with Denver and Utah to seek relief. A dispatch to Secretary Gage asks tax on a stock certificate per share par value of 1.0, seeking relief from the ruling.
