the victim of dyspepsia with compiica-

THE TRE4SURYs FIRST QUARTER

Treasury operations for September show an
other substantial surplus The excess of re-
ceipts over expenditures is S6439SlS and the
adverse balance carried on the Treasury books
through July and August has now been safely
and definitely extingIished. The surplus for the
first quarter Of the new fiscal year stands at
S5.49l. 3;}9 and it seems safe TO say that in the
next nine months il viii be swollen to at least
S25. 100000 or S3oOO0.ooo.
In some respects the showing for September
IS disappointing. Compared with last year the
receipts for the month disclose a shrinkage of
more than three and a half millions. In Sep
tember. 1902 the total receipts were S4S, 5S0,-
ISL. This year they are only S44, 969,s1S. Ex-
penditures too. are greater this year by about
SlOOOOOO. So that, while September, 1902,
brought a surplus Of Sll020,3S1, September,
1903 brings a surplus OF only S6,439.S1S.
The decline in customs receipts, which began
to be noticeable in July, has continued
checked through the first quarter. For Septem-
her collections at the customs houses amounted
to So. 635, O74 But year ago the months
total was S2G. DDS. 777-this years shrinkaGe
being s.. $50 703. This somewhat exceeds the
average loss for July and Augustine total de-
crease in customs receipts for the quarter stand
ing al 1885 455. At the rate indicated by these
losses the governments income from customs
100000 short Of its income for 19O2-03.
Internal revenue receipts have hitherto been
increasing as customs receipts fell. But Sep
TENDER reverses the presidents Of July and Au-
gust for internal revenue collections were
nearly $4,000 less this September than they
were in September year ago. For the quar-
ter however. internal revenue receipts still
show slight gain. \ year ago they were
SoS'SSS,20l Now they have climbed 10 $G0.-

Expenditures for September aud for the quar-
ter snow no material fluctuations, Last year
the figures for the month were s37 ECO coo
Ihis year they are S3s.53O,OoO. For the quar-
Ter ms years total is only S5o0Oo0 greater
than last gears
treasury expenditures during the next nine
months are reasonably certain not TO rise above
the normal level Internal revenue receipts

People who were compelled 10 pay two or
three times as much as usual for fuel for sew
ersl months in succession last year viii scru-
tinize with melancholy interest the figures
Just published showing the production Of coal
in the United States during 1902. Since they
come from Edward W. Parker Of the Geology
cal Survey, these figures may be received with
confidence. although be says that subsequent
revision may render Necessary some uifing
changes.
Taking the whole country into consideration.
IL appears thar there WIS a gain il the output
Of bituminous coal amounting 10 about $1,000
600 tons over that Of the previous year. and
loss OF 26oO0.c0o in anthracite leaving net
gain OF 100000 ions. As the average annual
increase for the five years prior 10 1901 was
over 100000 tons. the total supply last year
Cell below that which mi1.. -l1sonably have
been expected by 100000 or 100000 tons.
or 4 or per cent. still. considering the mat
ter on the broadcast possible scale, there was an
estimated increase in the price Of the whole
output OF FIVE cents ton At the mouth of the
mines-the difference between 81 10 and 81 n.
This trifing increase must be regarded as natu-
raj and rational under the circumstances but
IL Is IN sharp contrast 10 the addition Of from
IS 10 SIS a ton 10 the prices which many CON
sumers In the East were obliged TO pay TO re-
tail dealers.
A partial explanation OF the discrepancy is
afforded 10y the fact that Pennsylvania is the
chief source Of supply for the large and densely
populated region which underwent that memo
rable experience. Virginia. West Virginia and
Msryland-all producers Of bituminouS cal. by
the way-managed 20 increase their combined
production less than 100000 tons. Ohio and
other States further West report an addition
OF 100000 tons 10 their output but relief
from that quarter. II not absolutely impractsc
bic, was ar least hampered by the cost OF trans
portation. In the clogged condition Of the rail-
WAYS at that time shipments would have heen
\ long tine in reaching the Atlantic seaboard
IN was Of little use TO look to Europe whose
production has been nearly al standstin for
three or four years. and where prices have re-
Gently advanced. Finally, the Keystone State
which ia 1901 mined 100000 tons of both
kinds Of coal "a tri1e over half Of the country's
supply). produced only 139000Oo0 during the
next twelve months The shortage Of anthra-
cite reached 100000 tons. but the increase
in the quantity OF soft coal was only 100000
so that there was q clear deficit OF 100000
tons instead Of q net gain Of a like or greater
amount In other words, Pennsylvania had 20
100000 or 25.Oo0Oe0 less tons 10 sell than might
have been expected
An additional factor IN the situauon-sInall
but sppreciable-was the tremendous growth OF
the pig iron production last year. Most OF the
blast furnaces devoted 10 this industry smelt
their ore with coke. and coke is made Of soft
coal Several million more tons OF the latter
material were needed last year than in 1901 for
