porous Business During the
Present Fiscal Year.

When Uncle Sans cashiers bookkeepers
and other officials get through passing

today. Uncle Sam will have taken in about
Sfo,6O0.OO0 more than he paid out during
the fiscal year. 1t may be a long time
again before he will do this, as the new
war revenue act goes into effect on Mon
day. and the decrease in receipts will be
probably s4O,0OO,0oO. with a possible in
crease in expenditures. Last year the sur
plus was S79.527, ,O6O.
Increased Expenditures.

ceipts were $567, ,24O S51 and the expenditures

any one branch of the government but to
several branches. The expenditures ON ac-
count of the War Department have natu-
rally increased more than any other branch
OF the government except civil and miscel-
laneous. The expenditures on the war ac-
count for the year have been s144. .543, ,912
against $l34, 767 for the fiscal year that
ended June 30, 1900 The increase is about

substantial of any during the year 1t is
hoped that the next fiscal year will show a
greater falling off in interest charges

during the fiscal year have been as fol-
lows: Customs. s23S, 1856 74O: internal rev.

Demand for the White Metal in the
Southern Republic.
A recent stringency in Mexfcos money
market. caused by the very heavy ex-
portation of Mexican silver. has been re-
leved to considerable extent, according
to communication received at the State
Department from United States Consul
General Hanna at Monterey. Before the
opening of great refinery at Monterey, 1t
was necessary to ship all the silver bullion
from the Monterey smelters to the United
States to be refined. and but little OF 1t
went back to Mexico. Now this is an un-
necessary procedure. the bullion being re-
fined at Monterey and turned over to the
Mexican mint. For some time the scarcity
Of silver sent the market price of Mexican
silver coin up, but now that the demand Is
better supplied the price of the coin has
declined The consul general notes that
refined silver Is being shipped into Mexico
from Omaha for the use of the mints.
