TO LET CARLISLE WHISTLE.
Republican senators Not Inclined TO
Help the Treasury Out.

Washington. Feb. 6.-There appears to
be a disposition on the part OF some re-
publicans in the Senate TO permit the
Secretary Of the Treasury to find his
revenue as best he can. since he sent to
the Senate his letter stating that the de-
partment estimated that at the end OF
the present calender year the receipts
from the revenues would exceed the ex-
penditures by S22, 100000.
Among these republicans Is Mr.. Teller
who some time ago introduced bill in
creasing the revenue tax on beer from
81 to ST. per barrel. Mr.. Teller has been
agitating the proposition believing It to
be a good one, but he Is now inclined 10
let IT drop, as 1t Is apparent TO him that the
treasury department is determined that
the revenues shall not be charged with
responsibility for the scarcity of the pub
lie money.
