NO REDUCTION OF TAXATION.
War Revenues VIII Probably Rcmail
fbn sar,efn some ,rt,na

War Revenues NNill FRO bnbly Remain
the same for some Time.
New York. April 1.-THE Tribune'sg
washington correspondent says: In
formation acquired as the result of in-i
quiries among the leading and inhuen-
tial members Of the majority in con-
gress in the course of the last week
does not justify or encourage the belief
that any serious effort to reduce taxa
ton will be made at the present SEES
5sion. 1t is barely possible that such an
| effort might be made as regards a few
PARTICLES of taxation. IL 1t could be CON
fined to them alone. but even that
iwould not be probable in view Of the
4 linear approach of the presidential cam
spaign and election, and the general de-
jsire Of the readers of both of the great
4 political parties TO bring the session to
Ian end as early as practicable. States
linen and politicians of experience are
NEARLY always inclined to fight shy of
4 such Legislation in q presidential year.
4 Besides the disposition of the treasury
4 surplus has not yet become SO urgent
a question, and one demanding SO
q speedy solution, as 1t was twelve or
4 fourteen years ago. The secretary of
the treasury in a statement furnished
to the house of representatives last
4 Tuesday estimated the surplus for the
I current year at sT2,000.000 and for the
next year at S.. 100000. This statement
& did not contain any recommendation or
4 suggestion for the present reduction OF
revenue by means of legislation. altho
such suggestion would have been peril
!, nent in response to the house resolu-
\ ton calling for the statement. AS q
q matter of fact, it is said on excellent
. authority, that the secretary is not OF
4 the opinion that such legislation is nee
essary or expedient at the present time
4 The same View is held by the members
of the finance committee OF the senate
!. and the ways and means committee Of
: the house. They estimate that the sec.
retary Of the treasury will be required
/ to use some s40,0000 900 OF the estimated
surplus for this year In carrying oul
i the refunding operations relating to thu
q exchange of the older bonds for thu
q new 9 per cents, and $25, 900. 600 more II
redemption Of the old bonds which ar.
continued at the rate OF per cents ant
redeemable at the pleasure of thu
United States. 1t is also pointed out b,
them that the expenditures incident t
!, the war with Spain and the conse
quence Of 1t Will be heavy for man,
months to come. and that the appro
I priations by congress at this session
{ will not fall far below the estimates
even IL none should be made for TIL
!, river and harbor improvements or OF
j account Of the merchant marine or in
!: teroceanic canal or the Pacific subma
rine cable. or for any, other object no
included In the estimates sent TO con
gress by the secretary Of tlle treasury.

est the influx of japanese into this
country thru British Columbia, but un-
der the present immigration laws there
is nothing he can do except to deport the

the number of newcomers almost up TO
