ESsEE RANKS.

I ADAAAAEANA9A - $1,000 80
The sultan of Turkey wants to borrow
4 g, 500, COO, bat no one seems DESTROYS OF
| lending it to him, and the request has
| caused a general overhauling Of Turkish
finances. The foreign funded debt OF
Turkey is 1916, III, $50, the interest and
/ sinking fund Of which aus an annual
| charge upon the country Of $4,000, 900.
The interest Of the home debt is about
$4,000 annually. Other charges OF
thAkind make an aggregate annual in
terest OF about $50, 001, 0Gd to be paid, the
sultan having a fashion Of relieving pres
ent necessities by negotiating short loans
at high rates of interest. The largest
| revenue ever raised in Turkey was less
than $40, 0O0, 900, of which SIS, 000,0 0
were expended in the provinces, and the
balance. after paying debt interest, was
ONLY $4,000, 600 for the current expenses
Of the government, Of which s., 42b 900
| goes into the sultan's private purse. This
leaves less than s., 5000, 600 to carry on q
government the annual expenses Of
which in time Of peace is never less than
S35.OO0. geo. There has been an average
annual deficit Of S25, COO, 900 for the past
twelve years in Turkey.
An Interesting pamphlet, embOdyiDg
some curious facts in reference 10 the in
ternal revenue, has just been published,
from which we learn hat u Of the
whole population Of the United States
only $50, 600 persons paid a tax upon in
c0mes-in other words, that out of thirty
five million Of our people, less than half
a million have incomes of more thai
5000 a year. These who have less than
that evidently need it all to live on, and
thus spend ali they earn. The great
mass Of the people, therefore, are taxed
only indirectly, through the duties Of
the imposts imposed On the articles they
consume; aud If these are increased,
their wages must be increased also, else
they cannot live.
There was some improvement to-day
in the dry goods and provision markets,
and some very liberal orders were filed.
Flour has declined rapidly, being fully
81 per biol. lower than on yesterday.
Of1hmeal is plentiful and declining.
There is no change TO note in prices of
other articles.
COTTON-The market was quiet to-
day, but firm. Factors make no concess-
ions for the sake of q sale and seeEHfo
anticipate higher prices. Sales are
now participated in by but few persons,
the many having none OF the staple to
sell. Receipts for the day, 81 bales.
Shipments, 75 bales.
