GOVERN MENT MONEY.
Close Estimate Made by Secretary
Gage, Of the Treasury.
REVENUES AND EXPENSES.

The comparative annual statement
of the receipts and expenditures of the
United States issued by the secretary
of the treasury on July /, shows that
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1902,
the total receipts amounted to $685.
405, 1877, as against $5S7, 685, 1887 for the
fiscal year ended June 80, 1901. The
total expenditures for the year just
closed were SAT-, 209, Gal, as against
$500, 967 1858 for the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1901. The surplus for the
year Just closed is S92, 1876, 600.
On Nov. /, 1901, Secretary Gage
estimated the expenditures for the
year at Si72, 600 900, which was only
$3.50, $50 in excess OF the actual figures.
He also estimated the receipts at
$572, 00O. 900, which was 1854, S13 he
low the estimates. This difference,
however, was due to the loss of inter
mai revenue receipts as the direct re-
suit Of the evenu reduction act of
April -, 1909, which amounted to
about 50, 1000. This reduction could
not have been anticipated, as the act
was passed after the estimates were
Sent to congress. But for this reduc.
ton the surplus for the year just
closed would have been almost exactly
the amount estimated eight months
before. The accuracy OF these esti
mates is remarkable in the history OF
the treasury department.
The receipts from the severaI
sources of revenue are given as fol
lows:
Customs, Sod ,927; increase, as
compared with the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1901, S15,S61 600.
Internal revenue, SIZES PA; de
crease, So+,451.
Miscellaneous, $56,445,046; decrease
S4.474, 600.
The expenditures for the year are
given as follows:
Civil and miscellaneous, Sl13,4SS,
POP: decrease. 50, 900, 900.
War, S112,21 1888; decrease, s32,
600, 900.
Navy, s67,S 80, 500; increase, $1,000,
600.
Indians, $1O,O49 ,529; decrease, $S41,
600.
Pensions, $1SS, 4SS, 500; decrease
$3.50, 000.
Interest, s29,1OS,OS2; decrease, SO,
! 235. 900.
The surplus for the month OF June
1902, is shown to have been $15,S39,
609.
