ESTIMATES OF GOVERNMENT FINANCES.

Washington Dec. AFTER all the estimates of
recejpts and expenditures made By the Executive
branch of the Government are submitted TO Con-
cress the main reliance of that body in making
up the appropriation bills Is the compilation Of
these figures made by Messrs. Ceaves and Courts
the clerks of the two appropriations committees
The statement for this year and the next has just
been prepared 1t shows that the estimates for the
support OF the Government during the next fiscal
year aggregate $i9G 1913, which Is "A net reduc-
tion of 1854 JtS from the estimates submitted for
the present fiscal year. This does not include any
estimate for sugar bounty. which, Secretary Car
Isle said, would amount 90 $ll,pOp0 If the bounty
law was not repealed The estimates for the next
year are also less by S39s 963 than the total regular
appropriations for the current fiscal year (sG,7O6
1881 but this comparison excludes not only the
miscellaneous and deficiency appropriations made
for the year. but all estimates OF appropra
tions on the same scores for the next year. This
year the deficiency appropriations Were $Z22i.0SG
and the miscellaneous appropriations S2O,t0 but
the large deficiency caused by the necessity
Of appropriating Ntli972i 10 meet a deficit in the

the next fiscal year at S5l.iH7iS, 80 that there
will be a deficiency In the Government revenues

this statement assumes an Appropriation OF $is,-

ana IL deduction is made on that score, and no

appropriations that must be made. the revenues will
