CARLISLE BLUNDERED
HIS ESTIMATE OF REVENUE RE-
CEIPTs WAS FAR FROM CORRECT.
Deficit for the Present Fiscal Year
VIII Reach Forty-Two Million
Dollars by May 4.

WASHINGTON March 30.-Contrary to
expectations of the officials the treasury
receipts for the month of March will again
fall below the expenditures. The amount,
however, is only about s234,000. The excess
of expenditures over receipts for the nine
months of the present fiscal year is over
SIG. 500 900, and this amount will almost GER
tainly be. increased by s5,000,000 or more
during April which will leave a deficit of
about $42, 0o0,0 coo on May 1. During May and
June, however, great things are expected
from the income tax. but the most conser-
vative estimates now place the deficit for
the fiscal year s25, COO or 100000 greater
than Mr. Carlisle's estimate sent to Con-
gress with his last annual report. The
outlook for heavy receipts from the two
great sources of income, customs and in
ternal revenue, are not encouraging, par
ticularly from the latter.
During the month of August, 1894, the in
ternal revenue receipts, in anticipation of
the increased rate of duty, ran up to ST.
562, 600, but not since that time have they.
reached much more than a third of that
amount. In September they scarcely ex-
ceeded $6,000,c and since then they have
been slowly increasing until the present
month, when they amounted to over S9,SO0,-
600. This, however, is far below the expec-
tations of the officials. The receipts from
customs during the last twelve months
have shown an uneven, but one the whole
a fair, increase. During July, 1894, they
reached the low figure of $8,427,000, but dur
ing August they Increased to nearly $12,-
100000, and during September to about $15.-
564,99o The three succeeding months
showed falling off of from Aooo,ooo to
over 100000. In 1895, however, they
covered to over s17,O00,000, and then again
there was decline to 0,000, and an in
crease during the present month to nearly
S15,000,OC0. Only twice. however, since May.
1894 have the receipts from all sources
equaled the expenditures. In June, 1884,
there was a 81 ght excess. and during Au-
gust the excess reached $9,0000c0. The re-
ceipts during that month were abnormal
owing, as. stated. to the increased tax on
spirits. All things considered much de-
ponds on the decision of the Supreme Court
on the question of the validity of the in
come tax. Should the law be upheld, as
seems altogether probable, the treasury
officials look for fair sailing from this time
on but should the law be declared unconsti-
tutona extra session of Congress, called
to prov de for revenues sufficient to meet
the needs of the government, is regarded by
the officials as at least probable.

Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their sustenance from
the blood, and if the blood is thin, inn
pure or insufficient, they are in state
of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is concise, reasonable expla-
nation of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is

rilla. Read the next column.
