SUDDEN INCREASE In
TREASURY RECEIPTS
Uncle Sam May Not Have q
Deficit This Year.
CUSTOMS EXCEED ESTIMATE
Larger Than Last Year by Several
Millions Already-StatisticiaHs Re
fuse to Make Prediction in View of
New Factor-Money for tHs Canal.

Notwithstanding the fears. of the
Treasury officials that on account Of
the repeal Of the war taxes and the
heavy appropriations by Congress they
might soon be confronted with deficit.
no such thing is in sight now Although
the expenditures SO far this year have
exceeded the receipts by nearly S1OOO0.-
COO the outlook now is favorable that
by the end of the fiscal year all this viii
have been regained.
The heceipts from customs duties dur
ing the six weeks Of the current fiscal
year have exceeded those Of the CORE
spending period Of the preceding year
by several million dollars Last year
they were $33. 600 .0O0, this year they are
S39. .e00. .000. This increase is altogether
unexpected. The officials of the Treas
ury. cannot account for it. nor can they
do more than guess how long it VIII
continue. All calculations apparently
have been upset The figures showing a
big deficit for the year have been laid
aside.
Those charged with the duty Of hg-
uring ont how the balance sheet viii
stand have given up in despair. Gus
toms receipts are Rot the only thine
that worries them They are not sure
yet whether the S40.O00.000 Panama IA
nal money will have to be spent. MOI
the money for the Danish West Indies
There Is no official opinion wheth-
er there viii be surplus O.
deficit next June The loss by repea
Of war taxes viii amount TO $65.Go0,Jo0
Il tbe customs receipts continue at the
present rate this will be reeouped. and
instead of deficit there may be anoth-
er surplus.
