OVER FIFTY MILLIONS
TREASURY SURPLUS FOR THE
FISCAL YEAR.

Today closed the fiscal year 1903 for the
United States government and the officials
of the Treasury Department are busily en-
ployed footing up the figures of the year s
business. These figures show that Uncle
Sam has had a prosperous year-that he
has received many millions of cash from
the different sources of revenue and paid
out many millions Despite all his pay
ments however. he has closed the year
with a surplus of $50. 71O935.
Reduction in Supplies.
The total receipts for the year have been
$685. ,525, and the expenditures have
aggregated s5O6, 176, $50. For the fiscal year
1902 which ended one year ago today, the
total receipts were $3.50, 4O5 1877 and the ex-
penditures $471 211. 1877. showing a surplus
for that year Of $92, 1874, 80
This enormous surplus agitated Congress
considerably, and just before the end of
the year Congress repealed all the war
revenue taxes then In force, to take eff
feet at the beginning of the present fiscal
year, thereby looping off what was esti-
mated at $75,000,OO0 for the year. While
there has not been that much decrease in
the receipts from internal revenue this
year the fact that this decrease Is not
receipts from the regular internal revenue
laws
Increase In Expenditures.
The receipts for the fiscal year expiring
today have been only few millions be-
hind those of the last fiscal year, but the
expenditures have been much crater. Last
year the expenditures were SAT- ,211 ,797. and
for this year they have been $685. 176, $50, an
increase of approximately $35. OOO. 600 The
increase in the expenditures have been in
nearly all the various branches Of the gov
eminent.
How the Money Was Spent.
For the closing fiscal year the different
branches OF the government have spent
money as follows: Civil and miscellaneous,
1925 O1S. 311; War Department and army,
Sis $40, 6S3; Navy Department $82, 698, 8O2:
Indians. s12.931 $50; pensions, $13s, 425, GIT
interest on the public debt. SIS, $50 61S.
For the same departments of the last
fiscal year the expenditures were as fol-
lows: Civil and miscellaneous. $122. 282 OO3
war. S144, 615.697: navy. $50. SOC, 97S; Indians.
$40. S8013: pensions $13S.s23.621; interest.
$50, 342, 979.
The Years Receipts.
The receipts from the various sources for
the closing fiscal year have been as fol-
lows: Customs. $3.50 1891. 71s; internal rev.
enue. $3.50, ,2o5; miscellaneous, "a. $50. 552
Compared with the former fiscal year
preceding this the figures were as follows:
Customs. $254. 456.927; internal revenue,
ST. 5OS214: miscellaneous, SO, 455 O46
The point of chief interest in these fig
ures Is that during this fiscal year the
government has received from customs
So. 434. 791 more than during the last fis-
cal year, an enormous increase from that
source, and accounted for by the fact that
the United States has imported more goods
In the fiscal year 1903 than ever before
In her history The decrease In internal
revenue. as result of the repeal of the
war taxes has been $42. 3S7 .959, not so large
sum as estimated by Congress.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

There were some blocks Of stock for sale
at the meeting of the Washington Stock
Exchange. and In consequence considerable
trading was done. In fact it was quite a
lively business as compared with the usual
amount for some days past. One hundred
and twenty-five shares of the National
Safe Deposit. Savings and Trust Company
were sold. and while the entire lot went in
small blocks, yet the price was uniformly
the same.
On the same basis of comparison a good
deal was done with gas stock. as no less
than seventy five shares were sold at 64h.
An inquiry was made as to what would be
the asking price for 100 shares. and finally
an offer was made of such a lot at 68.
There were no transactions in TELEPHONY

interest periods are always time Of extra
work and the hours of the night as well as
those of the day find practically the entire
force at their desks. OF course, the busy
season Is not limited to those two periods
in the year, and in fact, with the average
bank employee there is not much leisure

The mention in The Star yesterday OF the

In the custom here of national banks not
paying interest on deposits attracted some
attention. However. the instances In which
the old custom has been deyiated from
have been known In banking circles for
some time and are not of recent origin.
At the present time this change Is by
no means general enough to indicate that
1t is liable to soon become at all general.
In talking about payment of interest, a
man engaged in banking here said today
that he knew Of q trust company in Balti-
more that paid 81 per cent interest on de-
posits. and these were not time deposits
either but such as could be checked out
at any time.
The understanding with the bank of de-
posit was that such accounts must not be

collar and cuffs, yet because of the pro-

ends and appearing also in the accompany

some boas in which lace is combined with
fur. There seems to be no choice between
the two as to stylishness. The most effec-
tive use of a second fur in a boa puts 1t as
lining Thus the mole stole that on being
turned back discloses ermine lining is about
the limit of fineness. And an owner of

a deal of combining two furs in one gar

past three winters and now has greater
