The bill introduced by Representa-
tive Bowers of Mississippi at the ses-
sion just closed, and which was sub
sequently enacted into law, promises
in the light of present developcment
to raise a hornets nest. Under the
provisions Of that act the Office Of the
collector of customs, now at Bay st.
Louis, was transferred to Gulfport,
and that Of the deputy collector, now
at Gulfport, was moved to Bay st.
Louis. 1t was simply an exchange of
domicile, Bay ST. Louis becoming a
support and Gulfport the port of en-
try Provision was also made for dep
uties at Pascagcula, Scranton, Horn
Island and Biloxi, at which there arc
at present deputy collectors as pro-
vided for in the old law. The change
in the law, though only nominally a
change, is said to have excited the GU
pidity of those who are chiefly after
the "loaves and fishes" in politics,
and it is rumored that an effort is now
being made in view of the change in
the law to change as well the person
mel of these officers. This would Gre
ate, if carried into execution, five new
vacancies in the Federal patronage of
the Mississippi Sound.

The total appropriations made by
this Congress, according to Mr.. Hem
enway, aggregate 1871, ,574 4,629; of this
sum, $26,S01 ,843 was to pay defcien-
cies for prior fiscal years, and $780,
100000 is set aside for application to
the sinking fund. This leaves the to-
tai appropriation for the expenses of
the government for the year 1905,
$69S,272, ,7S3. The total estimated rev.
enues for this period are $704 4,472 ,060,
or an excess over appropriations or au-
thorized expenditures of $6,199,274.
Experience has demonstrated that, one
year with another, the actual expen-
ditures of the government are about
5 per cent less than the appropriations
made by congress, and, anticipating
that the coming fiscal year will not
prove an exception to this practically
well-established rule, it is safe to as
sumo that the apparent surplus of rev.
enues over expenditures will be aug
mented by not less than $35,O00,00O,
thus affording a safe margin of at
least $40,000,000 between revenues and
expenditures with which to meet all
lgitimate deficiencies that may arise
and that may have to be provided for
next session, and also affording a con-
siderable sum to be devoted to the
sinking fund.

With brief announcement and
sharp rap of his well-worn gavel, Pres
ident Pro TEN Frye adjourned the
Senate sine die at 2 p. m., Thursday,
the hour fixed by resolution of the two
houses of Congress. The occurrence
was devoid of unusual incident and
the final close of the session was but
slightly different from the end of an
ordinary days sitting. The work of
the session had been concluded before
the final word was said, so that neith
er rush nor confusion marked the end.
The advanced position taken by the
japanese in the adoption of humane
rules of warfare was strikingly shown
in a report to the state department
from United States Minister Griscom,
at Toxic, in which he encloses com
munication to himself from Baron Ko-
mura, the Japanese minister of for
eign affairs. The minister shows that
Japan is the first country to give full
effect to the elaborate code of laws
governing war, laid down by The
