Dimcalt for Secretary Window to Make
His Estimates-Heavy Pension Draius.
\ The Secretary Of the Treasury 10 having some
dimcuity In preparing his estimates for ths
coming session Of Congress- Though the Nc
kfniey tariff Law went into effect on the 9Th Of
October goods imported before that date may
be Withdrawn any time prior to the LIST OF Feb
rusry at the old rate Of duty.
These duties coming in with those collected
under the new law, il 10 difficult to estimate
what the revenues under the new law will be-
At present the daily revenues exceed the daily
ordinary expenses, but there 10 no means Of
estimating what the customs revenues will be
after February 1. It IL not improbable that the
largely increased rates of duty In many In.
stances will reduce imporsations, and, there
fore, reduce the revenues.
The indications are that there will be some
very large deficiencies in appropriations for
this year to be provided for at the next session.
DEFICIENCY ON ACCOUNT OF PENSIONS.
The deficiency on account Of pensions will be
enormous. Up to date there has been &64,-
OO0, 900 drawn ont Of the Treasury for pensions
since the LIST OF July.
About Si9,000.00o Of this sum was drawn
this month, and 1t is hoped At the depar tment
that there will be no more pension drafts be-
fore January. Upon this basis 1t is estimated
that the expenditures for pensions during the
hut 1t seems quite probable that the
1000, 900 just drawn will not last until jan
usry and that the expenditure for the whole
year will be much more than estimated. De-
Quoting the e19.00O.O00 not yet expended
the expenditures for the FIRST quarter Of
the year have amounted 70 about
pa. 000, 900. This carried out for the
four quarters would make the expenditures for
the year Sl76, 000, 600, 10 meet which lass than
300 ZOO, 900 have been appropriated. Mean
while the number Of pensions is steadily iu-
creasing and the deficiency may be greater

AGAINST SENATOR VANCE.
The Alliance Organ is Opposed 20 His
REELECTION.

Special Correspondence Of The EVENING sTAl.
WINSTON, N. c., Nov. lathe Raleigh Pro
g''essfoe Farmer, state organ Of the Farmers
Alliance, Of which Col L L. Polk, new OF
Washington, the president Of the National Al
lance, is owner and managing editor, comes
out this week in another violent attack on Sen
ator Vance. Among other things it says:
1.-THE Progressiue FARMER had hoped that the
Senator would 80 modify his views on this great
measure (the subtressury bilD - that good
and true alliance men could consistently give
him their support But he persists in calling
the bill unconstitutional In short, Senator
Vance cannot and will not support the measure,
and yet he claims that every candidate for the
legislature except three are pledged to him.
Senator Vance makes the issue clear-the ALI
ance must abandon this measure or it must aban-
don him. What answer will the alliance Of
North Carolina make to this PROPOSE
tion2 As the official organ Of the order in our
state. the Progressive Farmer would be basely
recreant and treacherous to its high trust il i,
faltered in the discharge of its sacred duty. II
cannot and will not support any man for Sena-
tor who thus places himself in antagonism to
o measure which lies SO near the heart Of this
great order. We will not abandon the sub
treasury plan, but We intend TO do all IN our
power to secure legislation that will bring the
this BILL So far as this paper is concerned, il
will not give up this measure for any man."
WHAT THE SENATOR WILL SUPPORT.
During tho recent campaign In this state
Senator Vance declared that while he could
not support the subtressury bill in ito present
shape, because he believed IL to be unconstitu.
tional. he would support and do all in hii
power to have passed any similar bill that
came within the constitutional limit
Senator Vance has always been the stanch
advocate OF the rights and interests of the
laborinR classes Whether - Representative
in Congress, governor or United States Senator
Vanoe's record shows him 10 have been the
Incorporating friend Of the farmer, and he
has so been regarded for many years. This
fact makes the opposition Of the Progressive
Farmer all the more unreasonable, and can only
be accounted for by the vaultlng ambition OF
Polk, who would like to succeed Vance in the
Senate. But IL is the general opinion in this
state that it win be impossible TO defeat him by
any combination that can be brought about.
With loss than dozen exceptions, every al
lance man elected to the next legislature an.
nounced on the stump that he would vote for
the reelection of Vance.
They could not have been elected had they
not done 20. All the alliance men we're nomi-
mated through the regular democratic county
convention, and they are expected to 60 into
the democratic caucus and supper. the nomi-
nee Of that caucus, who will Internationally be

1t 10 plain that Polk and his paper will brina
all the pressure possible to bear to defeal
Senator Vance, but it 10 not believed that such
a result is probable. G.

He had been drinking aud was in laughing
humor. He laughed too loud and when Special
Officer ReIdy arrested him he became
boisterous When the landing was reached,
the officer and his prisoner had tussle and
Stewart went down the steps rapidly. He did
not walk down. He didn't run. His head
struck first and he spilled enough blood to
paint the steps red. A doctor at the Emer-
geucy Hospital dressed his wounds and he was
then locked up. Judge Miller told the boy to-
day that he had better keep sober when he
goes to the thsater and fined him IS.
