THE REVENUE GROWING.

The Treasury accounts for October give fur
thcr evidence that the revenue under the new
tariff will not long fall short Of expectations
August, the first month under the new reve-
nue. law. gave receipts Of $10023615 and
September $21 1888 ,O9S, but the current daily re-
port makes receipts In October S24,3903i7. For
four years the expenditures have averaged al
most exactly $3G0,OOO 600 yearly. or $50. 600 900
n month. 80 that further increase not greater
than has been realized between August and Oc-
tober would give tie Treasury a revenue about
equal to Its expenditures While considerably
larger revenue was expected after the current
fiscal year, there were many supporters Of the
new law who believed 1t would for the first
year fall far short. and II a revenue sufficient
for Treasury needs should be realized as early
as December or January they would he both
gratifed and surprised.
The question Is not one OF immediate need.
The Treasury has on hand an available cash
balance Of $211 ,547.37o. including S153,551.Sl1
gold In excess Of outstanding certificates. 1t
would occasion no Inconvenience or alarm II
this surplus should be somewhat reduced. but
instead it Is certain to be much increased by the
payment In full Of Government claims against
the Union Pacific Railway. This will add about
So, 900 20 the Treasury reserve, so that II
the revenue for the last half Of the fiscal year
about equals the expenditures the surplus avail
able at the end of the year will be not less but
considerably larger than II Is now. The deficit
is mainly due to imports In anticipation Of the
new tariff but also In part to the need Of ex
ceptiOnay heavy payments during the first four
months Of the cLrrent fiscal year. since the cx-
penditures In July October, inclusive. have been
about S142, III 900, against $13S.347.OO0 In the
same months OF 1885, $120,0G0000 in 1898.
and $131. "a 600 In 1894 This increase Of pay
ments during the earlier months OF the fiscal
year accounts for about $11. 100000 OF the def
cit, unless 1t turns out that the expenditures
under existing laws for the entire year prove
larger than the average for the four years past
1t Is true that an Increase appears In pension
disbursements, which have amounted to $50
100000 for the four months this year, against
$4710OOO0 to SAT 100000 in the same months
of the three previous years. but this covers only
4 fraction Of the excess.
The customs receipts continue to rise. In the
first month under the new tariff they were less
than $7.0O0.OO0. and In the second month less
than So 600. 900, but In October they were 50 49,
405 With the exhaustion OF supplies brought
into the country to anticipate new duties this
Increase In receipts from duties should be con-
tInuous. so that as much as 12OOOOOO monthly
should be reached with the end Of the calendar
year. The increase In internal revenue has
been small. partly due to purchases Of stamps

1t has been as "deleyates' to the conference

We firmly believed and faithfully declared that
the candidacy OF Seth Low offered the only
chance Of escaping defeat. We hoped. and for
q time believed, that General Tracy would final
ly refuse to bear the burden Of discredit ana
condemnation which must be his portion for the
rest Of his life. He chose otherwise. He con-
sented to betray and to be betrayed, not realiz-
Ing. as we prefer to believe the full nature and
consequences Of his course.
Then pay the tribute Of old days
To his dead fame:
Walk backward with averted gaze
And hide the shame.
But for the malignant authors Of the misery
and disgrace to which. II Tammany Hall is
true to It's instincts and It's record, Greater New
York Is doomed. no such merciful release Is pos
sible or conceivable. They created city con-
tanning one-half the population Of the State. and
they have turned it over to the spoilers. They
are incapable Of repentance. and therefore they
will never be forgiven.
