The United States Treasurer received last week
from customs $4,l2s,423. from internal revenue
S3,O1.,233, and from miscellaneous sources
S255,265; total from all $7,305,o2l, against
$7,l49,l5l in the preceding week. There was a
considerable increase in the customs and smaller
one In the internal revenue receipts but falling
of in the miscellaneous revenue The weekly
Treasury statement showed an increase of
81 ,25s,3OO in the net cash in vaults, and an
increase of S2l4,515 in deposits In National
banks According TO the statement the net cash
balances were strengthened by Sl,472,s75 The
heavy gain in the gold balance would have been
more satisfactory il it had been brought about
by an accumulation Of specie rather than by the
retirement of gold certificates.
The principal changes in the vault balances
were made up as follows: further gain in
the gold balance of S3,354,429, by reduction
of $3.50 900 in the volume of outstanding certii-
Gates and gain of S215,429 in coin and bullion:
a loss in the silver balance of S29s,2sS, by an
increase Of S400,926 in outstanding certificates.
less an increase of S192.S3s in coin and bullion.
and a loss in the legal-tender balance of
S2240,ss9 by loss Of $2,s99,Ss0 in notes, less
a reduction of S650,000 in the amount of out
standing certificates The holdings Of National
bank notes were increased by $452,04S. Treasury
notes TO the amount of S5l3,3j7 were issued in
payment for silver bullion, but the sum OF
S424,430 returned in the ordinary course
of business, and the increase IN the amount OF
these notes outstanding, consequently, was only
SsS927. The 1reasuiys liability for the re-
demption of National bank notes was reduced
by Sj2,3l6, and the deposits of lawful money on
that account amounted at the end of the week
TO S25,979,221
