The MERCHANTS AND THE Treasury CIRCU-
Lara New York letter of The l4th to The Phis-
delphia Ledger, says: "The extraordinary circular
issued from the Treasury Department at Washing

tailment of contingent expenses and the throwing
of some pretty heavy burdens upon the mercantile
community, has created deep sensation in town
Today: Accordingly, arrangements are on foot,
looking 10 grand indignation meeting, which will
probably take place some lime this week.

EXPENSES OF THE Custom HousE-In the de-
bate in the u S. Senate on the proposition for sus
pending the law limiting the whole expense Of col
Letting the revenue to the sum of 81, $780, 900, Mr.
Calhoun made some remarks which, from his re-
rnarkable administrative talent, so admirably shown
when he was Secretary of War, and his knowledge
Of finance, are worthy of especial note He COM
pared the income from imports for the year 1919
and the expenses of its collection for the same ne
Rod, with the income from imports for the wear
1921, and the expenses of its collection during that
year, In 1921 the net revenue amounted to $15,-
1000; the expense of collecting the revenue was
$685. 900. In 1919 the net revenue was S31 ,500,-
900; the expense of collecting it was $4,000. 900.
This simple statement clearly shows, in his opin-
ion that there is something wrong. The expense of
collecting the revenue has increased upwards Of 200
per cent. Increased numbers of custom houses and
certain other causes may account for some increase
but this is more than balanced by the fact that in
1919 we collected 100000, and in 1921 but
Sl5,0O0000. We can collect very large sum
much more cheaply in proportion than we can col
leet very small sum, and taking it altogether, the
expenses at this day ought to be less in proportion
estimating all the causes, than they were in 1921
Mr.. Calhoun proceeded to express his opinion
that the expense of the collection of the revenue
can be reduced safely to the sum of 81 800, 00O and
much lower; he was of opinion that it may be re-
duced to 100000 under proper administration
MIR. Calhoun with just PRIDE recalls the fact that
when he became Secretary of War, he Z" fonad the
Of the War Department $4,000, 900, and
reduced them IN three gears to $2,700,000, and
that 'oitOat single reduction By laay changing
