THE PAST FISCAL YEAR.
ststeren, Regarding Governments
Receipts and Disbursements.

Washington. July 1. ~ Secretary
shaw Thursday gave out a statement
showing the comparison between the
estimates which he submitted TO con
grcss in his last annual report and
the actual receipts and disbursements
during the fiscal year. from which II
appears that the actual surplus is on
~ about three-fourths Of a million less
than the estimated surplus when ac-
count is taken only Of expenditures
which were considered in submitting
the estimate. In the estimate submit
ted to congress no account was taken
81 possible expenditures in securing
the right OF way for the isthmian ca
nal. nor Of the loan Of 81 500 900 to the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition Co. The
estimate was based also on the then
existing laws. These were subse-
quently modified by the ratification OF
the reciprocity treaty with Cuba. The
secretary calls attention to the fact
that the surplus would have been sew
eral millions in excess OF his estimate
but for the reciprocity arrangement
with Cuba which reduced the reve-
nues from s60oo.000 10 sS.0Oo0oo
The available cash June 80. 1904.
amounts TO Sl66.965.S72. as compared
with the fiscal year ended June I. 1903.
These figures show increases and de-
creases in receipts as follows.
Customs. decrease. s21.S23. 235: i'm
terual revenue. increase. $3.50 $40:
miscellaneous. increase. si.S02.OiA
The civil and miscellaneous cxpen-
ditures Tor the year just ended OK
ceeded those for the year 1908 includ-
ing the payments on account Of the
Panama canal purchase and the St
Louis exposition loan by S67.Si3.602
The expenditures on account OF the
war department were $3.211 .S97 less
than for 1908. and the expenditures on
account OF the navy were s20. $50 .271
F greater than for 1908.
Pensions show an increase 81 81
$4,000 and interest payments a de-
crease Of over $4,000. 900 as compared
with 1903.
Commissioner YerAcs. OF the inter
nal revenue bureau. Thursday made
tho following statement.
The total receipts OF the internal
revenue bureau for the fiscal year clos
ing Thursday evening viii be about
s23S.50o000. This shows an excess OF
collections over Tho fiscal year ending
June So 1908. Of some $4,000 600 Tho
rates 81 taxation on various articles
paying an internal revenue tax being
the same this fiscal year as during tho
year which ended June 80. 1908. and
the amount 81 tax collected being ia
excess by some three and a half mil
lions of dollars. does not indicate that
the business movements OF the coun
try and its commercial transactions
are decreasing. or that we are suffer

Another Scheme Is TO Scatter the Vote,
Preventing an Early election

81. Louis. July Two distinct
lines % operation developed Friday In
the preliminary skirmishing OF the

IS a scheme 70 rush the nomination OF

Cleveland are working 20 hold the
Irorvention for several ballots IN the
hope that their candidate would be
named The German men are not par
tics 90 the Cleveland movement. nor
arc the Cleveland advocates combin-
inc with Germans friends. There IS
no alliance. but IL IS TO the interests
of both that the Parker strength be
|dis'ntcErated as soon as possible.
There are a few men here OF the old
Cleveland guard who are watching
every point and who are IN close com
'municstion with Cicvcland's support
crs. and In a subtle and suhtcrrancan
manner they have been feeling the
pulse az men as they arrive They are
using the race issue on the southern
men and With all delegates they USE
The argument that Cleveland is the on
. De- man that tho democrats can elect.
with some effect they are pointing out
10 tho southern delegates that they
need no better excuse FOR supporting
