SEES DEFICIT IN TREASURY
Secretary Of That Department Admits
That Growth Of Country Will
Cause Shortage.

Washington.-The secretary OF the
deficit In the treasury for the fiscal year
in excess of s1S,0O0,000, the sum he
originally estimated would cover 1t, but
he does not admit that there is anything
in the present condition that gives him
the least concern. The revenues have
kept UP well, and there is reason
for believing that with the coming OF
fall there will be an increased importa-
tion of dutiable goods, At the presen;
time the deficit in the treasury amounts
to $30,0OO,C00, but this is near the close
of the fiscal year and at time when the
treasury is usually depleted. The Sec
retary does not believe that the deficit
at the end of the fiscal year will be any
thing like the $4,000, COO Indicated now.
The real treasury situation now has
been created by the expenditures, and
not the falling off of receipts. Dealing
in round numbers, it is pointed out that
the navy expenditures last year were
S15,000,000 more than the year previ-
pus; the army expenditures were Sl0,-
100000 more than the year before, and
the free rural delivery expenses were
$10.0O0,000 more. The expenditures are
expected to decrease because Of the fall
ing of or exhaustion Of the current ap-
preparations during the next two
months In this period the balances
will recoup, and thus strengthen the
treasury for the heavy expenditures to
come with the beginning of the next fis-
cal year, July /.
1t is admitted that July will be heavy
month, because the appropriations OF
time become available, but 1t is expected
that after that month an average will be
struck which will bring matters to .
much better level.

from Europe In New York and other

daily wage offered being so much In

GERMAN TRADE LOST
FARM PRODUCTS WILL sUFFER
As A RESULT.
American Agricultural Interests Are
to Be Shut Out Because Of De-
nunciation Of Reciprocity
Treaty.

Washington.--A commercial war be-
tween the United States and Germany,
such as officers of the state depart
citation Of the reciprocity treaty OF
1900, will involve q commerce which
last year amounted to 1923, ,969. .456,
OF that immense sum, Americans re-
ceived $214, 4,780,902 for goods exported
to Germany, and Germany received
$109, 9,18S,554 for goods sent into the
United States. II the treaty goes out
of effect American goods will have to
pay customs dues from so to $50 per
cent. higher than those now In effect.
!! The greatest increase in rates will
be on agricultural products. Ameri-
can wheat. corn, rye, flour, apples,
lard and meats will be shut out Of
Germany. The agricultural products
sent to Germany last year amounted
to $66.000,0O0 about 30 per cent. Of
the entire exports to that empire.
Cotton is the great article of export,
Last year the United States sent t109,-
100000 worth to German mills and
shops. Cotton is on the free list now.
and there Is no proposition to take
1t therefrom. but the danger In all
tarfff wars is that of Its extension to
articles not included in the tariff when
the fight began.
Germany views the immense bal
ance Of trade against her with great
alarm. The farming classes are of
the opinion that the poor condition OF
the farming industry Ia due to the
liberality OF the government In the
matter Of reciprocity treaties with the
United States and other great agri-
cultural countries. The agitation
which has resulted in the negotiation
OF the treaties which will work to the
harm Of the United States came en-
tiFely from the Agrarian element
The rates which American goods
will have to pay are the highest Ger
many has ever had. The old rates
were supposed to be amply protective,
but the new rates are still higher,
For instance. the rate on wheat under
the old law was $50 marks per 100
Kilograms. The mark is worth 23.8
cents and the kilogram Is Q 1-5 pounds.
Under the new law the rate is 75Q
marks per 100 Kilograms. The ma
tions with whom new treaties have
been arranged will get rate Of $50
per 100 Kilograms. Such a difference
would shut out American wheat.
The new German tariff may be re-
garded now as completed. bat by the
terms Of the agreements with the diff
ferent governments the new rates will
only take effect some time hetween
January ! and July /, 1906. They are
to remain in force until December 81,
1917.
The new tariff has been framed
with the avowed purpose of furnishing
greater protection to the agricultural
Interests of the empire. Hence the
iuties'on grain, meats and other agri-
cultural products have been greatly
advanced-in some cases as high as
LOO per cent, and in few instances
,ven higher. The duties on manufac-
ured goods are substantially un.
hanged.
