THE BRITISH BUDGET.

LONDON, April 24-Sir William Vernon
Harcourt, chancellor of the eXchequer,
introduced the budget for the coming
fiscal year in the house of commons today
He estimated the expenditures for the cur
rent fiscial year at e9l, i64 900 and the
revenue ut eS4 800. 900, leaving deficit of
&C, 574, 900 due chiefly to the vast growth of
expenditures not created by the govern
ment but through the demands of the
country upon parliament. The chancellor
said that the government would not pro.
pose TO cover the deficit by encroaching up
ON the sinking fund devoted to the reduct
ion of the national debt He preferred to
meet the deficit by the straightforward
way of increasing taxation. The govern
ment proposed to increase the income tax
by penny on the pound, which ought TO
add 81, $50. 900 to the revenue.

THE RUSSIAN TREATY

| CHICAGO, April 24-CentraI Music hall
was packed to the doors yesterday by an
| enthusiastic audience, which gathered to
! denounce the Russian treaty. The speak
ers denounced the treaty as fugitive
| slave law, and the epresident and senate o.
| the United States as policemen of the czar.
State Senator Edward L. Noonan presid-
| ed. Judge N. I. Tuey of the circuit
court was the first speaker, and said:
why is il we have interested ourselves
in behalf Of Russian refugees? 1t is be-
cause n wrong done to the .humblest Rus
sian peasant is II wrong done to you to
| me, and to the so 600, 900 people who pro-
fess allegiance TO the American flag. A
law affecting the liberty of any citizen Of
this country is wrong The purpose of
this treaty is to deprive some one OF his or
her liberty. Why is il that the United
States should surrender a criminal to Rus
sia. Civil law has no say there; monarch
ical law has been, and is today. the rale.
The criminal laws of Russia are such as
to dishonor any nation that will make
with il an eXtradition treaty. Why
should Russia be permitted TO make the
president of the United States and those
subordinate to him his policemen TO ar
rest Russian criminals? Should eXtradi-
tion of Russian citizens be attempted we
will appeal to "A higher power-the cOnsti-
tuition Of the United States"
a letter from George kennan, the cee-
brated Siberian traveller, was read, in
which Mr. kennan said: Nv hen the
cZar ceases to declare martial law every
year in the most important parts of his
empire: when he restores trial by jury and
recognizes the right of habeas corpus;
when he abOlishes exile by administrative
process and Imprisonment without Judi
cial warrant; when he ceases to persecute
religious diSSenterS on account OF their
faith; when he reforms the Siberian exile
system, and when he begins 80 rule as
civilized and Christian monarch then, but
not till then, can the government of the
[ nited States send back to him his fugi-
tive subjects without cruel Injustice TO
them and disgrace 10 itself"
Bishop EallOws, Rev. y. e. Clifford and
other speakers denounced the treaty as an
outrage upon American institutions, de-
clared that it was merely fugitive slave
law. and shat the men who passed it had
made themselves slave catchers.
The meeting then adopted resolutions
declaring the treaty to be contrary TO the
principles of international law, civilization
and American liberty; that any attempt
this country will result rs before, in Il
terrible conflict between the law aud the
conscience of the people, and in the re-
establishment of that regretable but glo-
rlous illegality, the underground railway
to Canada, where, under another flag, the
oppressed will find protection, il it is de-
MED under the stars and stripes.
1t was decided to request the government
ito undo the great disgrace it has put upon
the American nation. and at once abrogate
this Infamous treaty.

WHAT IS MONEY

Weighed against that health it so often
fails to buy? Dross indeed. While we
can none OF us claim a total exemption
from that greateat of all Ills to which flesh
is heir-ill health, we may do much to
lessen the chances of incurring it, and this
not alone by the adoption of such sanitary
measures as are to be found In daily exer-
else. regular hours, prudence in eating and
drinking, and wholesome diet, but also
by resorting to juiicious preventive medi
cation when the system is threatened by
unhealthful influences. For instance,
residents or sojourners in malarlous local
tiles should use Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters az a defense against chills and
fever, and persons who incur Eiuch out-oJ
door exposure should employ it as safe
guard against rheumatism. Travellers in
the tropics find it Invaluable also as a
means OF arresting liver complaint and
constipation, and counteractIng the debili-
tating influence of a torrid climate.

THE AUSTRALIAN PANIC.

NEW YORK, April PA special London
| cable to the Times says: THE twenty
Australian banks doing business reported
at the end of the past year capital and re-
serves amounting to about ga, ,0o0, 900 and
deposits over el50. 100000, OF which about
el00, 900, 600 were time deposits bearing in
terest. These time deposits are accepted
in Great Britain for periods running from
one TO five years, and interest is allowed
at rates ranging from 81 10 ) per cent. on
deposits to remain for longer periods up to
five years. The credit of the bank de-
termines the rate allowed.
Money so received was lent at higher
rates in j ustral!a, and the business was
so profitable that dividends of from 10 to
% Der cent were paid by the larger BANKS
The deposits as they became payable, were
renewed, and the total Increased from year
to year. The largest proportion came
from Scotland, where the business as
sumed such dimensions that insurance
companies made regular tariff for guar
anteeng deposits.
The smash-up of a large number Of
building and kindred societies last year ia
Australia and the discovery that many
banks had locked up large sums in unprO-
ductive OR over-valued real estate, caused
some Withdrawals of deposits as they fel!
due, and checked new opening of deposit
accounts. The failure of two banks last
year added uneasi mess. This has developed
into panic, which has brought down
three other banks this year, and which
may result in further failures. The i'm
mediate cause OF each failure has been the
same. The first of the time deposits are
wholly or partly Withdrawn in London
as they fall due. This makes it necessary
to draw on the Australian office and when
deposi;ors In Australia see their bank
assets dwindling, they take fright and be-
gin TO check out their current account
balance. Then follows a run and the man
ayers of the London Office wake up some
fine morning and find in the newspapers
that the bank they supposed to be solvent
has failed -.

CHANDl Frs FINANCIAL VIEWS.

WASHINGTON, April 2l.-Senator Chan
Ter has some positive views on financial
and other questions of the day.
81 can state the position ! take said
the senator. in a single proposition, aud
that is that the secretary of the treasury
ought to use the 500 900, 600 of the reserve
if it becomes necessary and not issue any
bonds until he is obliged TO. That large
fund was made to be used; that is what it
is there for, and it should be called upon
before any other steps are taken. The law
requires national banks to retain 10 per
cent of their earnings for surplus to he
used in an emergency, and why should
not the government resort to the same
policy? | am afraid that gold will soon go
to a premium and the country be forced TO
a silver basis"
When asked what effect the financial
situation would have upon calling an eX-
ira session OF congress, Mr.. Chandler re-
piled that the question could be best an
swered by the party now in power
The question OF an extra session. he
continued, depends entirely upon the
present administration; whether it is
broad and large in its contemplation OF
public affairs, or small and inadequate:
whether 1t shall prove strong and cour-
ageous. Ii it is strong and has the cOur-
age for which some men give it credit
Mr.. Cleveland will call an extra session
and seek the repeal of the law of 1890
Whether congress will or will not follow
the advice Of the president in this matter
he can at least place the responsibility
upon congress. In my opinion Mr.. Cleve-
land will surely go TO ruin If he permits
gold to go TO premium rather than call
an extra session of congress. Financial
probe are not the only ones we have to
face. however. Ii the proposed program OF
tariff smashing is TO be conducted, the
people who have money invested in pro-
tected and their allied industries will be
exceedingly shy about investing their
capital. Times will, as Il natural sequence,
become bard. and American wages VIII
fall. This will be the inevitable result of
an assault upon the tariff
