The fact that the bond of the pres ent Public Printer will expire on the first of January is responsible for the belief that new Public Printer will be appointed in short time. It is stated that President Cleveland has rendered the appointment to two men and that it was declined by both of them, because neither of them was willing to promise the President that they would run the office on civil ser vice reform principles, making neither removals nor appointments on politi- cal grounds. If President Cleveland insists upon getting that promise from the man appointed it will be very difli- cult for him to get democratic Public Printer, and if one is found 10 make the promise and it becomes known his confirmation by the Senate would be extremely doubtful.

GOVERNMENT receipts continue to fall below the expectations of Treasury officials, and it is now considered that the actual deficit at the close of the present fiscal year will greatly exceed the estimate of Secretary Carlisle made seven months ago, which it will be re membcred was S23, 100000. That Congress will have to do something very soon to provide the money to meet the expenses of the government is apparent, but neither senators nor representatives seem to have very clear idea of what that something shall be. Senator Voorhees,, who as chair man of the Senate committee on Finance will have much to do with the deciding, thinks that the proper thing is to give the Secretary of the Treas : ury authority to issue short time low interest bonds whenever the money is needed. MT. Voorhees, says this would not be confering any new power on the Secretary of the Treasury; it would be merely changing the act for tho re- sumption of specie payments which gives him authority to issue long term bonds ut rate of interest that would now be considered very high.

 SENATOR CHANDLER, of N. H., pro- poses to offer resolution as soon as congress reasscmblcs that would, if fathered by Senator Stewart or some other silver senator set the gold men by the ears. It will ask that the United States invite all the coun- tries of the world to send delegates to a monetary conference, the invitation to contain a declaration of the United States that the purpose of the confer ence shall be the establishment and maintainancc of an international ratio, with an additional declaration stating that if sugh ratio cannot be agreed upon it will be the purpose of the Uni ted States to adopt a single standard, and that standard not gold, but silver Senator Chandler believes that if the United States will take this radical stand it will result in forcing the gold standard countries of Europe to agree to a double standard. It is doubtful, however, whether such a resolution can be adopted in either Senate or HOuSp

REPRESENTATIVE MCMILLAN and Bryan, the subcommittee of the House Ways and Means committee charged with preparing the internal revenue bill which is to raise the money to make up the deficit that is expected to follow the reductions made by the new tarifr bill, have agreed upon a report 10 be made to the democratic members of the Ways and Means committee. It is understood that the report will recommend per cent tax on in- comes of S4,O0O and upwards; tax upon personal property inheritances Crate undocidcd); tax of $l.5O per 1000 on cigarettes, and of 6 cents pack upon playing cards. They es' timate that bill in accordance with their recommendation would make q revenue of S45, 100000.
