 For the year 1s93-3 the excess of re- ceipts over revenue amounted to only g, 67+. Prior to that year there had been an excess in receipts over ex- penditures for every fiscal year since 1865, the excess in all those years up to 1923 having been in the year 1874 when the receipts exceeded the ex- penditures by only 8, ,344, s32
 For the present fiscal year ended to- day, Secretary Carlisle, on December 8, 1894, estimated that the deficiency would be 0,000
 As shown by the official figures this estimate was more than s28, 1000, 900 out of the way, largely due to the elimina- tion of the income tax from the rev enue.
 On February ?, 1895. Secretary Car lisle, in an estimate furnished to con gress, stated that for the calendar year 1895, the surplus revenue over eXpend- itures would amount to s22, 563, ,023. Six months of this period have now passed and the deficit for this six months is SIG, 750, GOO.

For the month of July, NHlch peglhS Monday, IL IS estimated by the treasury, if receipts continue normal, that the expenditures will ex- ceed the receipts by about S12, 100000 or SIS, GOO, GOO. July being an interest paying month and the payments on account of pensions being also es- pecially heavy.
 For the month of June just ended the receipts have exceeded the ex- penditures by nearly S2 GOO, 600, the first month since last August when this has been the case.

Not Yet Contirmed-WilI Deal with the
 Rebellion with an Iron Hand.
 WASHINGTON, June 30.--It is now three days since the report of the cap ture of the insurgent Gen. Maceo was first made public and no one in Wash ington, not even the Spanish minister, is a ble to confirm the story.
 The rumored capture of MaeeO tends to boom the proposed financial scheme of the Spanish cortes to raise funds for the prosecution of the war
 Latest advices from Spain indicate that the home government intends dealing with the insurrection in Cuba with an iron hand.
 Arrangements are being made for 8 perfect patrol of the island and for the capture of any filibustering eXpe- dition that may attempt to land.
 The 600, GOO, GOO pesetas, equivalent in American money to S120, GOO 600, voted by the eortes as an emergency fund for the suppresson of the insur- rection in Cuba, is at the com mand of the government and 35,000 men are ready to embark as soon as Gen. Campos gives the word. It is confidently expected, therefore, that as soon as the rainy season ends in September the com bined land and sea forces will be pushed forward and some decisive en- agreements with the insurgents may result

THE GOLD SYNDICATE
Must Continue to Protect the Treasur
 Reserve Until October

tNeSSFFS JnJn OctODef.
 NEW YORK, July Bradstreets says Inasmueh as many usually well-informed newspapers appear to continue in doubt as to whether the bond syndicate has completed it's work or not, whether it is about to dissolve and leave the treasury gold reserve, now well above the s1Oo, 000, GOO mark, to the tender mercies of the market for foreign exchange. it may be well to state thus prominently that the syndicate has not completed its under taking. It expects to continue to lend all proper support to the treasury in maintaining Sl00, GOO, GOO of gold re- serves until October, 1895, in the same way and manner that it has thus far.
 If therefore, Lombard street and Wall street operators have been in doubt as to the probable future of the market for American securities. be- cause of their uncertainty on the point referred to- they may at once replace that doubt with sense of security which this information must tend to impart
