CONDITION OF THE TREASURY.
The Outlook for the Near Future Not
Very Encouraging.

very encouraging.
WASHINGTON, May 27.-The present
depleted condition of the Treasury and
the discouraging outlook for the future
are a source of considerable anxiety to
officials of the Treasury Department.
Already the gold reserve. which was
brought up by the last bond issue to
S1O7. 800, $40, has been reduced by exports
since March 10th to less than $50, 900,
with no indication that the foreign de-
mand will cease until it has reached a
much lower point. With the exception
of the gold reserve, and counting every
dollar III the vaults of the Treasury. to-
day there is less than $50, ,000 900 with
which to meet obligations.
Nor does the future show any signs of
encouragement On the contrary the
probability is that thedeficit OF 5000, 900
Tor the month of May is likely to be ill
creased by Sl5, ,O00, ,0O0 during the two sue
ceeding months, The closest attention
shows the deficit of the fiscal year ending
June Both will be approximately $4,000
900. Close estimates place the receipts
for May at 81, SOC, 600, and the diSburse-
ments S2S, 5U0, 900. For June the receipts
are likely to be about S24, ,000,00 with ex-
penditures $-6,0O0,00 making the total
receipts for the fiscal year 81, ,50l 800,
and the disbursements $3.50, ,50sl97.
While it is contidentially believed that
the receipts for July will increase some-
what, yet it is much more certain the dis
bursements will increase. A conserva-
tive estimate of the deficit for July is Sl2,-
600, 900, this increase being accounted for
by the payment of many obligations. in
Guiding about ST5,000.000 in interest that
natures at the beginning OF the fiscal
year. During June the pensions payment
will amount to about Sl0, SOC, 600, and dur
ing the near future 10 SIl. 100000.
The full amount of receipts aud ex-
penditures for the present month and for
the fiscal year TO date are as follows: Re-
ceipts for month TO date. $40. 495, ,SSS; re-
ceipts for fiscal year to date, $266, ,239, ,637; ;

Work Suspended in Many Pennsylvania

PHILADELPHIA, May 27.-The anthra-
cite coal trade, like the bitnminous trade,
is at standstill, though from vastly
different cause. The floods throughout
the anthracite region have flooded most
of the mines, forcing suspension of
work until the flooded mines can be re-
lieved of the surplus water. The en-
forced stoppage, together with the cur
tailed production of the anthracite min
ing companies for several months past.
has produced scarcity of hard coal, and
especially with the Reading Company,
which has been compelled within the last
few days TO decline orders. Out of some
forty collieries operated by the Reading
Company, all but twelve are at present in
a condition to prevent the mining of coal,
but the companies expect in few days
to have them pumped out and in oper-
alton.

LONDON, May IA dispatch to the
Times from Madrid says there was sick
ening spectacle in the bull pen there this
evening. Ell Espartro. a well known
matador, while engaging the first bull
sent into the ring, was caught by one OF
the horns of the animal and his abdomen
was ripped open. He died five minutes
later.
The Standards correspondent at
Madrid sends further details OF the kill
ing of Ell Esparto. The bull had killed
four horses, and he became extremely
fierce when the banderillos fixed their
darts in his neck. Sixteen thousand
people were watching the fight. and the
excitement was intense. The bull was
almost in the center of the ARENA paving
the earth and his eyes glaring with rage.
AS Esparto approached him with his
usual daring, he brought forth plaudlts
from the spectators. AS he got near the
infuriated bull, he made a rush for him,
and was knocked down. He was not
apparently hurt, for he sprang nimbly to
his feet, and again attacked the animal,
which had wheeled about preparatory to
making another charge upon his enemy.
There was a moment ntofsuspense, and then,
with lowered head, the bull rushed at the
matador, who sprang to one side and
plunged his dagger into the neck of the
animal Just as he did so the bull swung
his head in the direction of Espartro, at
the same time lifting it. One of the ami
mails horns caught the unfortunate man
in the body and almost tore his body
open up TO the chest. He was at once
carried to an infrmary, where the physi-
clans pronounced his wounds fatal. A
priest was summoned and administered
extreme JUNCTION to the dying man. In
five minutes he was dead.
The spectators, at least the greater por
ton, did not propose that their pleasure
should be spoiled by the death OF a man
who had been well paid to assist in max
ing holiday for them, and SO the fight
was continued as soon as the excitement
had somewhat subsidized. All the bulls
fought well, killing fifteen horses and
flooring two of tho torreadors, who were
severely bruised.
Espartro was engaged to marry and
the wedding was to have taken place
shortly. He was extremely popular and
had made large fortune. 1t was his in
tention to retire from the ring next year.
