the nOn-success of the Americans to OBJ

The government here replied that it

The insurgents were completely
demoralized when our forces crossed

New Mining Drill.

A novel machine is now being tried
for the first time in the history OF
British Columbia mining at the Atha-
basca mine, near Nelson. 1t is called
the Gilmore hand-power drill and is a
Chicagoau's invention. The machine
is operated by one man, and uses any
pounded by an ordinary miners ham
mor. The inventor claims that it has
an automatic feed, and the drill makes
perfect turn after every blow. 1t has
already been tried in Mexico with sue
cess. The great advantage claimed fot
it is that while it does not supersede
labor, it greatly lessons the cost OF
mining.

HEAVY DEFICIT LAST MONTH.
Expenditures More and Revenue Less
Than Preceding One.

Than Preceding One.
New York, May "A special to the
Herald from Washington SAYS: Treas
ury receipts for April fell sl5, 400, 900
below those for March, while the ex-
penditures were 1922. 500, 600 more than
those for the month previous.
This great difference does not. how
ever. indicate either a large falling off
in the ordinary receipts or a large in
crease in the ordinary expenditures.
The receipts for March were increased
by the payment to the government of
nearly Sl2, 900, 900, on account OF Pa
Citic railway settlement, while the ex-
penditures for April were increased by
the drawing OF the warrants for the
payment of $50, 600, 600, 900 to Spain.
Leaving out of account these two
items. the receipts for March were only
about $4,000. 600 larger than those for
April, and the expenditures for the
latter month were less than $4,000, 600
greater than those for March. Not
withstanding that the interest pay
ments for April were sal, 6ll.5S7, and
the expenditures, including the pay
ment to Spain, were 500, S54 900, show
ing deficit for the month OF $24, 2O7,.
099, and from miscellaneous sources,
$1.758. 541.
The deficit for the fiscal year to date
amounts to $l09. 300,2s but the
probabilities are that the deficit for the
entire year will not be in excess of the
estimate of $4,000, 900, made by Sec
rotary Gage in his annual report.
