plenty of the best kind of fish, Holsters
fresh from the pot. and all the fresh
vegetables needed from the coast farms.

August Brings in Less Cash Than
Any Month For Years.

Washington, ID. c.. Aug. 81. The treasury
returns yesterday did not afford evidence
of any important improvement in receipts
and the exhibit for the last day of the
month Is expected To he still! less favor
able. Total receipts for yesterday were
sSS9. 73i, OF which s262, 3d5 was from GUS
toms, S602, 46l from internal revenue and
t23, 9Os from miscellaneous sources.
The receipts during August nave been
SIS, 42l. 4O7 of which 81, 6Ia, l0dhas been from
customs, Sll, Or, 92l from internal revenue
aud S749. $50 from miscellaneous sources.
The total for the month will not much
exceed $40, 600, 0O0 and may not reach that
sum. This is less than3 in any month
under the last adm iniStration. tho nearest
approach to it being afer the passage Of
the Wilson law. when the receipts were
sl9. 1875. $40 in October. and $40 All, i03 in
NovemD Der, 1894.
The customs receipts at that time
however were $li, 962. lis for October, and

952, 6g6.
The expenditures thus far during
August have been So. 7i0. 0O0 which has
creatsd q deficit for the month of Sl4, 3lS,
592. This deficit which will not be reduced
much below Sl4, 0O0. 600 by the final
figures tomorrow, has beeu somewhat
increased by the large payments for pen
sions. The Issue of new pension certiil-
Gates was practically suspended during the
last quarter of the last fiscal year, ending
with June, because of the exhaustion of
the appropriation. and the Issue of these
certificates since that time has largely
.welled the expenditures.
The deficit for the fiscal year has
already reached s25, 3g2 1876. The receipts
have been S57. AIS, ~. and the expenditures
SS2, $40, y1S. The pension expenditures
