WASHINGTON, January 9.-The re-
celpts from customs are so variable as
10 afford no data ut present on which
TO base calculations concerning the
future. 1t Is, however, supposed ut the
Treasury that in about ten days the
receipts will be more uniform. The
Commissioner of Internal Revenue is
much encouraged by the receipts of his
bureau. So far this month they are
three million dollars, and the prospect
is they will soon be restored to what
they were before the late panic thus
fulfilling his calculations of u hundred
millions annually.
Several of the members of the APP
preparation committee think the esti.
mates will be cut down about ten mil
lions, but that this will not be sufficient
to bring the expenditures of the govern
ment within the receipts from all
sources for the next fiscal year, there
fore some measure of Treasury relief
will be necessary. AS to what this
will be, there is at present no indica-
ton. Congress, however, will not act
hastily on the subject.
The names of several gentlemen are
publicly mentioned in connection with
the Chief Justiceship, including those
of Senators Morton and Howe-the
former more prominently-but up to
noon nothing could be obtained in Off
cial quarters concerning the subject,
which may be matter of cabinet adj
yisement to-day.
