30, 1894, the secretary estimates that the
revenues from all sources will be $780,
III 1865. and the estimated expenditures,
which, however, do not appear to in
clude miscellaneous and other ordinary
expenditures, $4b7 ,261 1856, or an esti-
mated surplus of $32, 2,860,030 To this
the secretary adds $40, ,992, ,S77, the cas- b
balance above the gold reserve, esti-
mated available June 80. 1893, making
sn estimated available balance June 80,
1894, of $53, 8 So, ,407. from which must
be deducted $5,000,000 for the redemp-
tion of past due bonds, fractional cur
rency and national bank notes, and ST.
100000 for probable payments on mail
subsidy contracts, leaving balance OF
s47 1852, ,407. 1t is estimated that $4O,-
100000 in contracts will be payable in
1894, which would bring the real work.
Ing balance down to 81 ,Sb2, ,407.
The expenditures on account OF PEN
sions as estimated In this statement
for the next year, amount to $l66, ,S3l,-
$50, or an increase over the amount
which it is estimated will be spent for
pensions this fiscal year, of only 1885,
$50.
The secretary's statement for 1894
shows that SAC, ,279, ,035 contract liablll'
ties to be deducted from the $47 1852 4O7
balance above the gold reserve. is esti'
mated as available cash, but does moi
show clearly whether the $25, ,257 95S o.
the contracts to be paid in 1898 has or
has not been deducted in the estimated
balance above the gold reserve fund 0
500 992, ,377, as the estimated casf
balance available June 80, 1893, though
it is presumed it was deducted in fgur
ing the balance.
Very little is allowed to the sinking
fund in these estimates, and a supple
mental statement places the estimated
balance due the fund June 30, 1894, a
$95 901 ,687.
Twenty-Five million dollars contrac
liabilities are included in the estimat
of this year, and therefore does no
come out of the estimated cash balanc
at the end of this fecal year.

The Words that First Greeted
Senator White.
That Distinguished Gentleman's

The Trip to Meet Him and the Re-

A Universal Expression of Regard from

Parade and Addresses at

The welcome extended to Senator
elect Stephen M. White upon his return
home from Sacramento yesterday was a
spontaneous burst of genuene enthusi-
asm such as has never before been
seen in the city.
1t had originally been planned that
his reception should consist OF ban
ouet, but there was such demand for
popular recognition of the events which
have eliminated in the elevation of SEN
ator White to be senator OF the United
States, that the tide could not be stem
med, and the result was an ovation that
no man could receive without having
his heart touched-while the banquet is
yet to come.
The welcome home was distinctively
free from any partisan features, and the
people of Los Angeles turned out to
greet their favorite. Not one untoward
incident marred the entire day, and
there were go many incidents that

DIR. EASTMAN BOUNCED,

Secretary Noble Endorses Captain
Browns Work at Pine Ridge.
WASHINGTON, Jan. .25.-Secretar Noble
today addressed communication to the
commissioner of Indian affairs setting
forth his conclusions in the matter of
the strained relations between J. Leroy
Brown, U. S. A., acting Indian agent at
Pine Ridge, and DR.. Charles A. East
man, the Sioux Indian agency physician.
The secretary's conclusion is that the
good OF the service requires that DR..
Eastman shall be suspended from acting
as physician at Pine Ridge agency, and
unless DR.. Eastman can be assigned or
appointed to another place he is willing
to accept, within the next Is days, he
must resign or he will be removed. The
secretary finds that there is no reason
able ground to find fault with the con-
duct of Acting Agent Captain Brown in
this connection.

REFORM IN PENSIONS.
Democrats Propose Anendments to Il
Pension Law OF 1890.

Democrats Propose Amendments to the
Pension Law OF 1890.
WAsHINeToN, Jan. 25.-rhe Demo-
cratic members Of the house sub-com-
mittee on appropriations have adopted
an amendment changing the pension
law Of 1890. Following are the principal
changes: That no widow shall receive
a pension under the act Of 1890, unless
married to soldier prior to 1870; that
no person shall receive pension under
the act of $780, unless disabled in the
service from manual labor and in re-
ceipt OF an income of less than 5000 o
year, and that no non-resident of the
United States shall receive q pension,
Another amendment provides for the
appointment ofa commission to consider
necessary notifications in the pension
laws aud report at the next congress.
They were adopted by vote of three
to two, the Democratic members,
Mutchler, O'Nei and Livingston, vot-
ing yea, and Grout and Bingham nay.
The fight against the amendments
will be carried by the Republican mem
bers into the full committee on appro-
priations, which is yet to act on the bill.
1t is said to be likely that some Demo-
cratic members of the full committee
will vote against their associates on the
subcommittee. II the amendments get
out of the committee, lively fight in
the house is certain.
The bill as framed by the majority of
the subcommittee also does away with
tbe pension agencies throughout the
country and provides for the payment
of pensions by checks directly from the
treasury department; abolishes the ex-
animation OF applicants by surgeons,
and provides for the appoin tment of 150
examiners to hereafter make examina-
tions.
O'Neil of Massachusetts,, speaking for
the majority of the members, and the
reasons for making the proposed
changes, said: "There is no disposition
on the part of the majority OF this houss
to take pension away from any man
who deserves it, that is from any man
who became disabled while in the Union
army. The country wants the pension
list reduced, but it does not want sin-
gle worthy pensioner stricken from the
rolls. 1t seems to the committee that
certain persons are entitled to pensions,
but it should stop there"
Grout of Vermont, one of the two Re-
publican members of the sub committee,
said: "The Republican minority is
against the amendments, and will op-
pose them in the full committee and the
house."
