OUR FINANCES.
Treasury Dencit for the Year Will
he Less Than = fOo, 0oO, o0o--some
Interesting Figures.

Washington, June 22---It is regarded
as conservative estimate that the
Treasury deficit for the fiscal year 1899,
which closes ten days hence. will be
less than Sl00.000,000. Already the re-
ceipts for the year aggregate over $685.
100000, with the expenditures barely
Si00.000,000 more, with ten days, judg-
ing from past years, of heavy receipts
yet to be, accounted for. Up To this
date the customs receipts amount 10
over 5000, 400 900; from internal revenue
1903. $50. 900 was realized. and from mis-
cellaneous sources there was received
3d., 10000 The total receipts fromsall
sources last year amounted 10 Si05.-
al. 335, while the expenditures aggre-
gated S443, 36S. 5s2, leaving "A deficit of
S3s, 0a1, 247. From the closest calcula-
ton that can now be made, the war
revenue act, which. with the exception
of few items, went into effect July l..
1SaS, will realize for the year little
less than Si00,O00.000. The two items
which have produced more than ten
times as much revenue as any two
others are those applying to docu-
mentary and proprietary stamps. On
April 30 last. these items had produced
over $50, SOC. 900, and il Is not improbable
that by July the total will exceed Si4,-
100000, The tax on legacies will proba-
bly, produce not much in excess of ST.
000, 900, while the special tax collected
from bankers will exceed S3,500.000.
The expenditures up TO this time ag-
gregate about $600,O00,000. OF this
amount S22s.0O0,00o was paid out on
acquisitions from the war department.
S64000.000 on account of the navy;
$3.50 000,0 900 on account of pensions and
nearly $4O,O00.000 on account Of interest
on the public debt; Si2.675.000 was paid
10 the Indians and Silt. 100000 was dis
bursed on civil and miscellaneous ac-
count
At this time il 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,
but an approximation has been made OF
the actual cash payments on these ac-
counts. which places the amount at
$230000 900. A calculation has been
made at the treasury which shows that
leaving out of the reckoning the $780,,
100000 expended this year on account
of the war; the $i00,000,00O produced
by the war revenue act, and the $11,-
79s,3l4 received from the Central Pa
cific, the figures would show Il surplus
for the year approximating $26, 000, 900.

o'clock Saturday the most disastrous
riot of the local railway strike took
place at Pearl street and Clarke avenue.
Two cars loaded with nonunion men.
patrolmen and deputies were attacked
by a mob of 5000. AS a result OF a
charge made by the police under Capt.
Hutchinson and Lieut.. Felhaber many
persons were severely and some possi-
bly, fatally injured. The first ear to
reach the scene of the trouble was met
by the mob and shower Of bricks and
eggs. About so feet behind the first car
was second car loaded with nom
union men, deputies and police. This
car also was compelled to come 20 a
stop. Before the police could step from
the cars fusillade OF stones and bricks
crashed through the windows. striking
several OF the nonunion men.
Within five minutes after the ears had
arrived nearly every patrolman and
nonunion man had been the mark for
one or more eggs, and every window
In both cars was quickly smashed.

the mob, and in order TO protect the
lives of the nonunion men the police
were compelled &c charge. Capt.
Hutchinson gave the word, and the po-
lice dashed through the crowd swing
ing their clubs. Dozens of people were
injured by being struck by stones and
clubs. The mob could not withstand
the terrific onslaught of the police, and
oil sought safety in fight. a scene OF
wild confusion followed. The fight
between the police and the mob con-
tinued for nearly IS minutes, but the
former finally gained the victory. The
mob was partially dispersed. and the
cars were run back TO the Lakeyiew
barns. AS the cars passed through the
public square they attracted consider
able attention, IL being easy to de-
termine from their appearance that
