DlNGlEY'S STATEMENT
ROSY PREDICTIONS FOR THE NEXT SIX
MONTHS.
A Comparative Summary of Receipts Under
the Tariff Bill and a Snowy Claim
For December.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 31.-Chair-
man Dingley, Of the Ways and Means
Committee, furnishes the Associated
Press the following statement Of the
revenue outlook:
1.-The revenue for December shows an
increase of more than two and a half
million dollars over that Of November
and five and three-fourths millions over
that of September, and even exceeds the
expenditures for December nearly one
and three-fourths millions. The official
figures for December excluding the $751;
715,2O4 received during the month on ac-
count Of the tactic railroad sale, and
the S9OO,O 600 paid out to Qualify the gov-
eminent representative to bid in case
of the sale of the Kansas Pacific make
the receipts $27, 931,494, expenditures
500. 195,OOO and surplus 81, 736,494. The
receipts in December, 1894, were nearly
twenty-five millions, in December, 1895,
they were t~wenty-six millions n in
December, 1896, a little less.
''This surplus for December, 1897,
however, arises from the fact that there
have been almost no interest payments
for the month. which makes the eX-
penditures below the average. In Jan
uary the quarterly interest will be due,
which will swell the expenditures
considerably above the average, and
leave a deficiency for that month, not
withstanding the event will probably
rise to at least twenty-nine millions and
possibly more.
'On the basis of the estimate Of the
Secretary Of the Treasury that the eN-
penditures for the present fiscal year
will be S373.0Q0,00O-a little over 5000
100000 having been already expended
the average monthly expenditures for
the six months. beginning January LIST,
will be about twenty-nine millions: as
the expenditures for the first half Of
the fiscal year are considerably larger
than those for the last half, OF account
of fie suspension Of many public works

ready Begun.

The Executive Committee of the State
Teachers Assembly held a short session
Thursday night after the adjournment of
the Supervisors meeting and met again
yesterday morning in the Secretary
office, completing their work about noon.
The following members were present;
Messrs. Graham, Of Charlotte; Thomp-
son, Of Statesyille; Grimsley, of Greens
boro; Gulley. of Wake Forest; Flowers,
of Trinity; Ragsall. of Greenville; State
Superintendent Mebane and Secretary
Parker.
Most of the session was devoted to rou-
tine work. The committee extended a
vote of thanks to the secretary and treas
urer for the method of keeping the re-
cords and accounts of the association
and the clearness of his report.
An official invitation was extended
the associations of South Carolina,
Georgia and Tennessee to meet with
the North Carolina Teachers Assembly
about the time of their next annual SEES
sion and a special committee was ap-
ro,ntcd, composed of MCSsrs. Graham,
Nebanp and Parker to confer with the
Executive committee Of the other State
associations relative to time. place and
program for such q convention. Snc-
rotary Parker and State superintendent
Nebanc have been in correspondence
with the officers of these associations
and with the superintendent and all
heartily favor such a meeting If satlS-
factory ARRANGEMENTS can be made as 20
time. place and program so as to get out
their full forces and not lose their ldcu-
titv as State organizations.
The plan seems to be for n general
convention to be participated in by rep
resentatives of the different associations
with special days to be devoted eXclu-
sive1y to the associations Of each State.
If these plans can be successfully exc
euted, this will be h --biggest educa-
tional meeting ever held in the State
and it would seem. should prove inter
estin@ and valuable to all educators from
the different States Interested.
I learn that few Of our teachers ever
attend the National or the Southern
Educational Associations and this is tho
only plan by which they can have the
advantages of such a meeting which is
necessarily broader in its scope than the
work of the State assembly could posi-
bly, he made.
committee and it is to be hoped that it
may prove successful.
The members OF the committee living
out of the city. left on the afternoon
trains for their homes.

Mr.. WtYLER'SG lEVANCE
A BACK NUMBER PROTEST AGAINST
M'KINlEY'S MESSAGE.
Considers it an Insult TO His Army--Weyler
ard Some Papers to be
Prosecuted

Madrid, Dec. 3O.-General Weyler, the
former captain general of Cuba, in his
memorial to the Queen Regent on the
subject of President McKinley's mes
sage to Congress, says he is honored
by the attack made upon him, and that
his as governor general was
that of a soldier, animated by honor and
patriotism. Such attacks, therefore,
General Weyler adds, will do him no
harm, as they are aimed at him, he as
serts, simply because he has done his
duty. Nevertheless, "since the message
contained insulting observations on the
Spanish troops in Cuba" he believed it
to be his duty to address a protest to
the crown. General Weyler affirms that
the so-called pacificos whom he concen-
trated in the fortified districts were the
prime abettors of the rebellion.
The protest of the general is couched
in courteous language.

The fort at Gull island is to be completed first. The whole of the extreme edge of Plum island is to be concreted for protection from waves, and riprap work done in addition. No mines are to be laid in the channel on account of depth and force of the tidal current.

Glass Baseball Team at Yale Field Yes
 terday.

CGrudy.
 Several weeks ago the faculty ffatly refused to permit the annual freshman sophomore baseball game, because they were desirous of avoiding the bitter class strife, which has always been cc- casioned by the playing of the sshme. Despite this fact the leaders of the two classes got their heads together and de- termined that the game should be play ed not for the sake of acting contrary to the desire of the faculty, but for the purpose of trying which possessed better team and the game was ar ranged for yesterday afternoon. The game was not publicly announced or advertised, as is the usual custom, but the word was quietly passed along the line and there was a large representa- tion of each class out to see the fun. The classes occupied opposite bleach CTS, but besides plenty of good natured yelling there was no demonstration. The game was fairly interesting and resulted in favor of the freshmen by the score of 12 to 6. The batteries were: Sophomores, Whittlesey and Sullivan; freshmen, Gibson and Hirsch.

BICYCLE UNIONS CRUSADE.

Determined Effort Being Made to Have
 the Streets Put in Good Condition.
 The New Haven Bicycle union has started out in a determined attempt to have the city streets put in good con- dition and kept so, despite the fact that they are so frequently torn up man of the street committee of the New Haven bicycle unino, will to-day confer with Robert E. Baldwin, super intendent of the street department, concerning the matter, and will offer some suggestions. MT. Butricks will suggest that streets be put back in good condition after they have been torn up for the purpose of making pipe connections and he will also suggest that coarser stone be used in repairing Telford pavements, than is now used.
 He thinks that the sne stone dressing now used wears out sooner than would a coarses stone. MT. Butricks also suggests that Center street be paved with brick.
 MT. Butricks suggests that any wheelman having complaints to make about the bad condition of the city streets should call at his place of busi- ness, 29 Center street, and explain the same.
 The bicycle union will meet some day this week to elect officers. Candidates have been nominated, the ticket being about the same as last year. The present officers consist of Morris F. Ty- Ter, president: R. V. Beach, secretary; Eugene s. Bristol, treasurer; executive committee, Max Adler, Thomas G. Ben nett, William H. Brewer, Henry w.. Farnam, Bruce Fenn, A. B. Greenwood, Henry W. Ring, Newman Smyth, Frank H. Sperry, Ezekiel G. Stoddard
