the preceding period of $3.50, 091.05.
OF this, $500, 901.63, or more than two
thirds, is on account of state institu--
lions under the board of control. This
is principally accounted for in the COM
pletion of the insane hospital at Chero-
kee, the expenditures for which during
this period were S5S4,7S9.S3, as against
$S1,S2S.S1 during the preceding bien-.
NAL term. The purchase of land for
several of the institutions, amounting
to $143,339.70, added to the above, to-
gether with new buildings, and the in.
creased cost of maintenance, affords an
explanation for the growth of expendi
lures by the state board of control
The increase for state educational in.
situations is $113,02421. The balance
is distributed among nun erous Other

that the principal increase in expendi

He cannot, however, assent to any
measures regarding the common army
which would possibly weaken both
halves of the monarchy and which
are not in accord with the interests OF
Hungary, the integrity of which they
would jeopardize. The emperor adds
that he, nevertheless, is DESTROYS OF

nounced in the lower house of the

he deems to be admissible to re
forms.
