JAPANESE MINISTER ILL.
Mr.. Takahira Operated on for Ap-
pendicitis. His Condition is
Considered Serious.

New York Oct. 50.-An operation
for appendicitis was performed on
japanese Minister Kogoro Takahira in
hotel in this city today.
The case is said to be serious one
and attaches of the japanese lekation at
Washington have been summoned to
the minister's bedside.
Mr. Takahira arrived here from
Washington Friday night and imme
diately after being assigned to room
at the hotel complained of illness and
asked that physician be sent for.
The physician found the minister suf
fering much pain but remedies were
administered which eased his suffering
and allowed him to pass the remainder
of the night comfortably. Saturday
however the minister would retain no
food and this with other symptoms
caused the physician to believe that
the case was one of appendicitis and
today when it was positively diagnos-
ed as such an immediate operation was
decided upon.
Sadazuchi Uchida, the japanese
consul general of this port, said after
the operation:
1.-The minister rallied after the ope-
ration and while his condition is tar
from being good it is favorable and
there is every reason to hope that be

THE TREASURY DEFICIT.

Washington, D. c.. Oct. 27.-For
the twenty-six days of October the de-
fict in the treasury department
amounts to IS, 655, 562 and for the fiscal
year, nearly one-third of which is
gone, s2l, ,5l3, 1T The total expandi-
lures for the present fiscal year to
date are just a few dollars short Of
s2G coo, ,O0O more than they were for
the same period of tie last fiscal year.
which indicates an increase IN expen-
ditures fer the fiscal year of $50, 900, :
coo. No wonder the acting secretary
Of the treasury is trying to create IN
belief in the figures presented by
Judge Parker. The immense growth IN
expenditures over the last fiscal year
is so plain as to create the belief tnat
the deficit this fiscal year, without
counting single dollar Of extraordi-
nary expenditure, will run to $40, 600, :
600 or more. TIE fetal receipts for
the fiscal year to date have been S179,-

$500. e9l, CIT, making aoefcit of ST.,

same period Of the last fiscal year
we're: Receipts from all soDyces. slS2.
26s. 500; expenditures, $50, 73S, 697,
showing a surplus of Sl,529. S03.
How there can be an honest eypecta-
tion that this tremendous difference
in expenditures can be overcome dur
ing the remainder Of the fiscal year
no fair-minded Official in the treasury
has an idea. The figures show that
the expenditures for each month OF the
present fiscal year, have averaged
about So, 500. GOO in excess Of the same
months of the last 6scal yer, fore
shadowjng q heavy deAcit for the year
unless there should be 40 increase in
reeeipts to meet the enormous exoen-
ditures that are known to be sched-
uled for payment.
The deficit this fiscal year would
have been 81, 900, 900 larger but for the
payment Of over 81, 600, 030 by tbe st.
Louis exposition on the amount it
borrowed from the government in the
last fiscal year and which the Repub-
licans said should not be charged to
the regular expenditures.
