D. m.-Revolution has been declared

The new government at Moscow
was established at a meeting of dele
gates from all the political parties in

to unite in revolt against the au-
thority Of the imperial government,
and resolutions were adopted calling
on the people of Moscow and its vi
cinty to hereafter disregard all au-
thority of the imperial government
officials.
Advices from Moscow show that
the revolutionists virtually control
all the city departments. The agi-
tators are going among the troops
and inducing many soldiers to leave
their posts.
The news from Moscow has Great
ed feeling of terror among the Of

prehension is felt that the whole
empire will soon be in state OF
anarchy.

AS a safeguard against any possible

financial position as much as possible.
The deficit In the Treasury. together
with the proposal to issue bonds in pay
ment OF expenses already incurred on
the Panama canal. has given some
slight measure OF concern TO financial
people. and it is explained that the Ad-
ministration is in fact figuring on the
bond issue in order to remove all pos
sibility OF increasing the deficit and
weakening its credit.
With so great an amount of money in
circulation-the per capita Is larger than
ever before-it is realized that the gold
reserve. while more than ample for good
times, might be embarrassingly depleted

To Enforce Economies.

The deficit will be provided against by
enforcement of economies in expenses.
Already the danger OF a serious deficit
has been nearly done away with by rea-
son Of the great increase of customs re-
ceipts. The country is importing and
paying duties on a greater amount of
dutiable goods than ever before, and
likewise on a much greater amount than
the official estimaters anticipated. Con-
seouently. revenues for several months
have been much larger than estimates.
and have been reducing the deficit.
Whether this condition will continue
for any length of time is very uncertain,
and therefore the authorities are anxious
to shorten their financial sale and be
secure in case revenues again fall below
expenditures.
Taft's Pruning Knife.
The estimates OF Secretary Taft for the
War Department. showing that he calcu-
lates on an economy of about 50, 600, 600
in the expense of his branch OF Govern
ment service. are expected to be typical
of the estimates OF other departments
The Secretary of the Interior has al
ready shown scme of the things he can
do with his pruning knife and the Secre-
tary OF Commerce and Labor is getting
busy in the same direction. II will
therefore be small surprise, in the
opinion OF men who have watched
the development OF the new economy
regime. if as much as $40. .000. 900 is carved
off the estimates for the Governments
conduct.
1t is evident enough now, from the
work that is being done in the direction
of economy in all the departments that
Government expenses will be sufficiently
pruned by the coming Congress 10 as
sure that the deficit will not assume
dangerous proportions within the next
two years. The President and his special
representatives are working hard to

peuses. and TO learn exactly what ones
