NEW YORK, July 2.-July has begun
with record breaking heat. Yesterday
was the hottest July l recorded at the
local weather bureau. The last day of
June was the hottest for that date i'll 80
years, and it was hoped that the climax
had been reached, but the mercury shot
up with astonishing rapidity, and at 4
.. m. all previous hot days had been dis
counted Hour for hour the temperature
averaged up to noon ) degrees above that
of Sunday and IL degrees higher than
Saturday.
As an indication of the fatal effects of
intense heat an unusually large number
of little white hearses have passed over
the Long Island City ferry in the last few
days on route to the cemeteries. y police
man stationed at one of tho ferry gates
said that the funerals of most of the little
victims of the heat came from the tene-
ment districts on the east side of Man
haitian.
In the telegraph bureau at police head
quarters it was said that up to half past :
o'clock yesterday there had been 20 calls
for ambulanccs 30 more than is usually
sent daily through police sources. The 90
above the average represent heat cases
Most of the calls for the ambulances do
not go through police agencies. The calls
for ambulances became 50 great that to
meet the emergency patrol wagons were
sent out to help the ambulances. The calls
for ambulanccs increased after noon.

NEW YORK. July 1.-The 30-year-old
wooden steamboat Mohawk, formerly the
Castleton, owned by John Fl. Starin and
used by him in carrying excursionists to
Glen Island, struck a rock Saturday even
ing just off New Rochelle, with 800 pas
sengers on board. and sank in less than
90 minutes. 1t is believed that no lives
were lost, though there are reports that
two or three persons are missing. The
Mohawk lies in about 80 feet of water
between Fort Slocum and Davenport 5
neck. Only her upper deck, smokestack
and paddle boxes are above water. The
excursionsts owe their lives to the cool

cape.

Expenses Very Large.

WASHINGTON. July 1.-The United
States government has just ended the
most successful financial year in its his
tory. The fiscal year ended on June 80,
but as the last day of the present fiscal
period happened to fall on Sunday the
records of the treasury department were
virtually complete at o'clock Saturday
afternoon. While the finances of the
government are in Il most encouraging
condition the commerce and Industries Of
the United States as shown by official
records kept during the II months have
reached condition of prosperity UNI
precedented, the exports of domestic
products amounting to about 81 ,5OO,-
OOO,OOO and the balance of trade being
far larger than cv,t before.
The nted States treasury has had
most remarkable year. and Secretary
Gage says that the outlook for the fiscal
year 19O2 j. as encouraging as at any
time since the government was establish
ed. So far a. he can sec there are no
rocks ahead. and he authorizes the state
ment that he will continue Indefinitely
the purchase Of bonds. relying on the
great resources of the treasury and the
steady income from sources of revenue
to sustain him. lie says also that he has
no immediate intention of rrSuming the
refundns operations autho|zcd by the
act of March II. 1900.
This year for the first time, the sec
rotary of the Treasury purchased bonds
in the open market without advertising
for proposals. as has been the custom
heretofore. The treasury has received
during the fiscal year more than it has
spent hy the sum of SI5,GOl .O+2 10,
which j, the largest surplus that has
been realizcd in any year in the last
decade except 1900.
1t would have exceeded by far even the
record of last year had not purchases of
bonds been made TO the amount of nearly
S15,OOO,OOO Yet, MS Mr.. Gage remark
ed a large surplus is not to be REGARDED
as an unmiXed blessing. and it 4 only
valuable in survey of our finances rs
showing the prosperous condition of the
treasury.
One significant thing in the treasury
statement is that the last day of the
fiscal year the available cash balance
amounting to S1150SS, 221 23. is larger
than ever before in the history of the
country. At the same time the stock Of
gold in the treasury vaults has reached
the enormous sum Of nearly $500 00O,-

Twas entirely unlocked for.
IL The war department was more ex-
vpensive this year by about S1OOOO.O0G
