CORPORATION TAX NOI
IMEETINGPRED1CTI0NS
Yield for Year Likely $22,000,000
Instead of $25,000,000 as Mac
Veagh Expected.
"WASHINGTON, May 7. Corpora
lion tax receipts for this year are go
ing to provo a disappointment to the
treasury. The estimate now Is that
they will reach $22,000,000 as against
$25,000,000 thought probable by Sec
retary MacVeagh In December, and
much larger amounts by officials hav
ing the collection of tho tax In charge
The minimum estimate la based on
the character of returns on which as
sessments are now being made; It
may be Increased some'what, but not
likely to any material extent.
From one district which It was
thought would yield $3,000,000 rev
enue but $750,000 will be collected,
and from another from which $1,
750,000 was expected only $500,000
In assessments have been made. Tho
estimate is that the city of New York
will yield $3,500,000.
Because of the popular interest In
the tax collections, the treasury, be
ginning May 1, will announce dally
the payments on that account. Only
small amounts have been paid so far
for tho double reason that the as-'
sessments aro not collectible until
Juno 30 and corporations nro avail
ing themselves of tho use 6f tax mon
ey until that time. Then, too, tho
uncertainty as to tho decision of tho
supreme court on the constitutional
ity of the law operates to delay pay
ments. Assessments to date on nc-
