RUNNING BEHIND.

Government Expenditures Exceed the Ro-
ceipts by Over Eight Millions.
WAsHINGroN, June 18.--It is said the
treasurer's statement, to be issued to-mor-
row, will show deficiency of 100000 in
stead of the usual net cash balance, the
first time this has occurred since tue pres
ent form OF statement WAS adopted by
Treasurer Jordan. In making this oalcula-
ton, however, no account is taken of S22.-
100000 on deposit in national banks and
tho $20,000,000 of fractional silver in the
treasury. Expenditures SO far this month
have been s., 1ss,824 in excess of the entire
revenues of the government during the
same period, amounting to $l8,221 1852.
These were exceeded by pension payments
alone which amounted to S1s,812, ,155.
Treasury officials say that expenditures
during the remainder of the month will be
light and the receipts sufficiently heavy to
overcome the present excess of expenditures
and leave small surplus for the month.
These same officials say the treasurer's
statement tomorrow will not inc.ude re-,
ceipts during the past two days and If il
did an actual surplus of $2.O0O,00O would
be shown instead of an apparent deficiency.

Thrilling Encounter Between an Engineer
and Fireman.
ALLIANCE, O., June lS.-A thrilling en-
counter took place yesterday afternoon on
board an engine on the Lake Erie, Alliance
and southern railroad between the fireman
and the engineer. Edward Benitz, the en-
gineer, and James McSwigan, the fireman,
were both candidates for the hand of Julia
Spieler, a pretty brunette. Both men were
aware of the others intentions, but were
known to be on good terms.
When within twenty miles OF this city
yesterday. with mixed passenger and
freight train, MoSwigan told Benitz that
he had proposed to Julia. and that
ho had been accepted. This enraged
the engineer, aud releasing his hold
on the throttle, he sprang upon his rival
and terrible battle ensued. The train
was then running at the rate of twenty-five
miles an hour, and sped on as the two men
fought. MoSwignu grabbed shovel to de-
fend himself, but tho engineer wrested it
from his grasp, and soon had him upon his
back on the tender pummeling him fear
fully.
brakeman separated the eombatants on
the promise that the matter would not be
reported. Both men resumed their posts
Both were evidently willing to let the matter
drop. for neither broached the subject, and
the train arrived In this city on schedule
time. Miss Spisler is u highly respected
Young lady.

New York, June lS.-Jere Dunn. referee
in the slavin-Kilrain glove contest. rem
dered his formal decision tonight. He
awards the fight to Slavin but declared that
Kilrain was not knocked out. Bets that
the contest would not last ten rounds are
won, because the winner is de-
clared after less than nine rounds
has been contested. Dunn saws
that Time Keeper DAILY made an unfortun-
ate mistake attor the gong got out of order
by not calling out the seconds that elapsed
while Kilrain was down. He then states
that he considers himself equally at fault
in not keeping his Dyes toward the center
for himself how quickly Kilrain
that his back was toward Kilrain BY saying
he felt it his duty, on account of Slavin's
method of fighting, to watch the Australian
to prevent him from fouling. Dunn states
that Slavin always showed desire to so in
and slug Killain the instant he arose from
falling down. Dunn puts himself on
record as being against such tactics and
says he would have decided against Slavin
had he committed that act in the ninth
rouad.
This evening in a hotel Slavin and Mitch
ell, who seemed to have been drinking,
made good deal of noise and intimated in
roundabout way to Jere Dunn that he
had been afraid to decide Kilrain knocked
out because his (Dunn's) friends bet against
bad reputation from such people as the
men who were talking, his character would
ALWAYS be of the best. Slavin was requested
to leave the hotel and did.

Quartette of Coolies Finished With
Knives.
NEW YORK, June 18.-Chief Mate Lowell,
of the steamship South Portland, from ia
maica ports, tells story of horrible
fight he witnessed at Port Marie. Four
coolies, all natives of the town, had been
involved in bitter feud and decided to
fight to the death. A green enclosure was
roped off and at each corner stood one of
the men. They were stripped to the waist
and each man grasped in his right han a
knife with blade seven inches long.
For a moment the men stood glar-
ing at each other, then tho word was given
and the fight began. 1t was case of every
man for himself with vengeance. Lowell
says that without exception it was the most
fearful sight he ever saw. In five minutes
it was all over. When the police arrived
three bodies hacked almost beyond recog-
milton lay inside the ropes, the fourth man
being so crazed by his wounds that before
the police could lay hands on him he drove
his own knife through his heart.
