DEFICIT OF THE TREASURY
WILL PROBABLY BE LESS THAN
100000, 900.
Receipts and Expenditures of the
Government For Fiscal Year
Cost of the War.

Washington, June 21.-It is regarded
as a conservative estimate that the
/ treasury deficit for the fiscal year 1899,
which closes ten days hence, will be less
than 500 900. 000 Already the receipts
/ for the year aggregate over S4S9, SOC, 600,
with the expenditures barely 500, 000,-
I 600 more, with ten days. judging from
| past years. of heavy receipts yet to be
/ accounted for. Up to this date the GUS
/ toms receipts amount to over $500 400. =
/ 900: from internal revenues. 1868, 550. 900
was realized, and from miscellaneous
sources there was received $35. 800, 000
The total receipts from all sources last
year amounted to $405. 321. 1856. while the
expenditures aggregated s44S. 36S, $50,
( leaving a deficit of $3S.047, 247.
From the closest calculation that can
now be made, the war revenue account,
which, with the exception of a few
items, went into effect on July l. 1898,
will realize for the year a little less
than 500, coo, GOO. The receipts from to-
bacco alone will probably show an in
crease for the year of over SIS, 900, 900:
spirits, an increase of Sc. 500. 900; beer
and other fermented liquors, an in
crease of over $2S.000.000. and oleomar-
gerine, an increase of $685., 600
The two items which have produced
more than ten times as much revenue
as any two others, are those applying
to documentary and proprietary
stamps. On April 80 last these items
had produced over $50, 500. 600, and it is
not improbable that by July the total
Will exceed S44. 000. 600. The tax on leg
acies will probably produce not much
in excess of 1000, 000 while the special
tax collected from bankers will exceed
IS. 100000
The expenditures up TO this time ag-
Sregate about $500, 000 900. OF this
amount S2S, 900 was paid out on
acquisitions from the war department,
S64.OOO,OO0 on account of the navy. $139,-
100000 on account of pensions. and
nearly $40. ZOO. 900 on account of inter-
est on the public debt: S12,675 900 was
paid TO the Indians and $117, 270. 900 was
disbursed on civil and miscellaneous
account.
At this time it is impossible to state
with any degree of certainty what the
war with Spain and the troubles in the
philippines have cost during this year,
nut an approximation has been made
OF the actual cash payments on these
accounts, which places the amount at
$50. 100000. calculation has been
made at the treasury which shows that
leaving out of the reckoning the $780,
OOOO0O expended this year on account !
OF the war, the 500, 1000. 900 produced |
by the war revenue account and the
$llI9S.314 received from the Central |
Pacific, the figures would show a sur |

The commissioners expect to leave on

Under this scheme the governor

MEN ANXIOUS TO WORK
WILLING TO WAIVE RECOGNI-
TON OF THE UNION.
Indications Are That Within a Day
or Two ALI Plants of Big Trust
Will Again Be In Operation-Em-
ployees Ready to Accept Scale
offered.

Denver Colo, June 21.-There is a
general feeling in Denver tonight that
the smelter strike is almost at an
end, and that within day or two the
plants of the American Smelling & Re
filming company will again be in Oper-
alton. For some days past reports
from Pueblo were to the effect that ac
tivity was manifested about the Colo
and that it was evidently preparing TO
resume operations. 1t has also been
stated that the Colorado had been re-
ceiving numerous applications from its
former employees and others for work
at the scale offered by the company.
Today the information was given out
in Denver, from what was said to be
official sources, that Manager Eilers of
the Colorado smelter had been instruct
ed by the operating committee of the
trust to blow in" his furnaces as soon
as he could sign the proper number of
men on the eight-hour basis for the
work. 1t was further stated that Man
ager Ballou of the Bimetallic smelter
at Leadville had received similar in
structions. 1t was intimated that the
other, trust SmelterS would follow as
soon as practicable.
IL is claimed by those familiar with
the situation that the men are anxious
to go to work, and that they are will
ing TO waive the recognition of the
union as well as the slight differences
in the wage schedules offered and de-
manded. There is no question regard
ing the eight-hour shifts. which will be
conceded by the company, whether the
law is declared valid by the supreme
court or not. 1t is the general opinion
that as soon as some of the smelters
are opened, the employees will practi-
cally report for duty.

action the Englishmen would take, and
one of the London men said that they
had not yet reached decision.

already known that his actions have

Rear Admiral Kautz refuses to be
interviewed about the troubles on the
islands. and will make no statement OF
any character concerning the prospects
of a peaceful termination of the inter-
national squabble. Before the flagship

W. Waldeck-Rousseau to resume the
task. and is actively enlisting support
for him.
In the lobby of the chamber of depu-
ties tonight. it is freely asserted that
NJ. Delcasse will not undertake the re-
sponsibility, and as Senator Waldeck-
Rousseau is not disinclined to another
trial, he may be invited. although there
is talk of Jean Sarrien, republican rad
zeal, as premier.

ALGER Is TO RETIRE.
Will Be Succeeded In Cabinet By
General Horace Porter.
Especial to The HeraId.)

New York, June 21.-The Journal to-
day prints a special from Washington
emphasizing the statement that Alger' S
retirement from the cabinet is certain.
1t further says that Alger will be sue
ceeded by General Horace Porter, who
in turn will be succeeded as ambasSa-
dor to France by Whitelaw Reid.
It is regarded as positive that AL
ger will make a fight for the United
States senatorship from Michigan, not
withstanding that Senator Mcmillan is
candidate for reelection. Relations
between the two have been somewhat
strained since Mcmillan recently de-
clared himself, after, as Alger gas
stated, he had agreed to leave him, AL
ger, clear field.
Whitelaw Reds appointment to the
French court viii probably not be OPP
posed in the senate by Platt, his erst-
while deadly political enemy. 1t is be-
lieved that the president has received
assurances of this and the confirmation
will be unanimous.
