animation.
SAN Francisco, April 23.-For hours
before the preliminary examination of
Theodore Durrant commenced in Judge
Conlon's court this morning crowd
commenced to gather and squad of
policemen was stationed in different
parts OF the room, on the lookout for
cranls, who have written threatening
letters to the judge. Before the court
opened, at'1f o'clock, 5000 people SUR
rounded the hall and filed the APP
proaches.
When the defendant arrived in court
all eyes were turned upon him and he
was sketched from all points of view
by the newspaper artists present. The
prisoner looked pale and concerned,
but showed no emotion.
A photographer exhibited several
photographs of the scene in the church
and two large pictures of Minnie
Williams, showing the wounds and the
work of the physicians, were exhibited
and attracted much attention. They
exhibited revolving sight.
The examination of witnesses brought
out nothing startling or sensational.

TREASURY ESTIMATES.

Income Tax Decision Necessitates Some
New Figuring-Tsfg Deficit Probable.
WASHINGTON, April 23.-The decision
Of the supreme court in the income tax
case necessitates a rehearing of the es-
Inmates of the government for the fiscal
year ending June so, and from the last
data obtainable it is believed that the
deficit for the year will amount to $4O,-
600, GOO. The amount of the deficit
to date is S47, ,241, with indi-
cations of a further increase be-
fore the close of the present
month, but the income tax re-
ceipts, it is expected, will materially
cut down this amount during the re-
naming ten weeks of the fiscal year.
Receipts from custom and internal
revenue sources continue to increase,
but not at the pace expected, and with
fully one-haIf Of the anticipated re-
ceipts from the income tax cut off, it
is doubtful If the close of the year
shows deficit of less than $40, O00 600.
AS has been the case for some years,
the expenditure on account of
pensions is more than a third
of the entire expenditures of the gov
eminent and several times during the
last two years the inexora BILE requisi-
tions of the secretary Of the interior on
pension account has caused some ap-
prehension among the officials that the
time might come when they could not
be konored with the old-time prompt
ness. Already this month more than
1900, 900 has been paid to pensioners,
and since July 1 nearly SLY, 500 600 has
been paid on the pension account

SPOKE FOR HIMSELF ONLY
Secretary Morton Did Not Voice the Presi-
dents Sentiments.

secretary morton LIZA NOT VOICE the KEeS1-
dents Sentiments.
WASHINGTON, April 23.-The state
ment which Secretary Morton gave to
the press last week of his views upon
the financial question has been inter
preted by the press very generally as
an utterance made on behalf of the
president and expressing the presi-
dents attitude. This inference was
based largely upon the circumstance
that Mr.. Morton made public his state
ment so soon after his return from the
white house, where he had been in
conference with the president and
members of the cabinet at the regular
cabinet meeting. The surmise, how
ever, was proven yesterday to be in
correct by denials which were made by
both President Cleveland and Secre-
tary Morton.
The president, when asked yester-
day evening whether Secretary Nor
tons interview upon the money ques-
ton might be regarded as represent
ing his views. replied: II am in no
manner responsible for Mr.. Morton's
interview, and knew nothing of it
until 1 read it in the newspapers.
When have seen fit to say anything
to the people on the money question,
or any other subject, have thus far
found it quite easy to do so directly
and on my own account '-
Both the president and the secretary
of agriculture spoke yesterday without
consultation with the other. Secre-
tary Morton did not know when he
made the statement that the president
intended to speak, and it was learned
that the president had no knowledge
of Secretary Morton's action upon the
matter when he dictated his own ut
terance thereon.

Strengthening and packing industry had

there was no law compelling such
meats to be labeled, as in the case of
oleomargarine when sold as butter.
The buyers of beef can distinguish this
kind of meat, as government inspection
of slaughtered cattle is made, and a
government tag is placed on each quar-
ter of beef. DIR. Salmon says that the
department has endeavored to secure
legislation similar to the oleomargar-
inc law, which will compel dealers in
horse meat to label so that consumers
need not be deceived.

FAIRFIELD, Ia, April Eek United

Railroad Passes.

A curious instance of the lack Of uni
formity in the practice of different
roads in all sorts of matters, large and
small, is furnished by the variety of
ideas among presidents and general
managers as to how annual passes
should be signed. A secretary to a gen
eral manager of prominent road sends
me the following statement which is
a canvass of the different methods TAX
en- from annual exchanges for the year
