The expenditures of the government
exceeded its current income by more
than 100000 in April, and the treas
ury deficit for the first ten months of
the fiscal year is upward of $4,000
900. While the months of May and
June nearly always show a balance on
the right side of the governments &C
count books, many fear that the de-
ficit at the end of the fiscal year, June
80, will reach $30,000000 The problem
of the deficit is serious one in the
opinion of the treasury officials. The
cash balance in the treasury has de-
clined to $133, 1S1,777, including the
amounts held by the national bank de-
positOries, and Secretary Shaw has
found it necessary to withdraw from
the banks $20,000000 The cash bal
ance actually on hand in the treasury
is said by some to have fallen below
the point of absolute safety.

Imports, like immigration, always in
crease in prosperity. Immigration at
this moment is at the highest figures
ever touched. Imports are also MAX
ing new records. This was expected
by everybody who had watched these
things for many years, and who had
marked the connection between them
in previous decades The panic of 1887
sent immigration down to half of its
previous figures but when the recov-
cry in business set IN immigration
again went upward, and soon broke all
records along TO that time. The 1851
panic sent the inflow down again to
half its previous total, and the war
which came on Immediately afterward
held the figures to low level for two
or three years. Then an upward swing
took place. That has been the expert
ence from the beginning. The world
quickly finds out the industrial condi-
lions in the United States, and when
they are favorable immigration re-
spends. Imports go up in good times
here because the people have more
money to spend than in ordinary peri
DDS, and also because the home produc-
ers are not able TO meet the home de-
mand.

Greater secrecy than ever before will
be exercised this year concerning the
scores made at target practice by the
various vessels of the Atlantic fleet.
While some of the details of the re-
suits may be made public, it is not the
intention of the Navy Department to
give out the scores. This government
has never been able to gather informa-
ton concerning the target practices of
other navies and there seems to be no
reason why the scores of our navy
should be made public. Great Britain
carefully guards all of the scores made
by her warships. Some years ago an
officer of a British vessel on the Asiatic
station told of the results of the tar
get practice then just finished The
information reached this country and
was published. a thorough investiga-
ton was made and the officer would
| have been court-martialed if it had
been possible to produce positive proof
, against him.

Maple-sugar- making is getting to be
a restricted industry, and may, indeed,
become lost art. The Bureau of For
estry, which has recently made study
of the business, has brought some inter
esting facts to light. Since 1850 the
area of maplesugar-farmi has great
ly cks=ged and shrunk. In early days
maple-Sugar was made even in the
South, because cane-sugar was scarce
and expensive. In New England, New
York and few other States the in
dustry has held its own or been eX-
tended. The bureau finds that seven
eighths of what is sold as maple-sugar
or maple-syrup is spurious; but in most
cases the adulteration is the work of
middlemen, not of the producers. The
net income of a maple-sugar grove is
cOnservatively estimated at So an acre;
and since the work car, be done at
time when there is little other farm
employment, and the grove will also
furnish the family firewood without
deterioration, sugar-orcnard is fair
ly profitable investment.

FLIGHT OF Car and His Family.

London, Jan. 23,-According to
the st, Petersburg correspondent OF
the Telegraph, the imperial family
has fed from Tsarkoe Selo. He says
that after three days and a hall OF
secrecy frequent changes from palace

Tsarkoe-Selo Monday morning when
the news arrived that the strikers

there as the goal Of their march.
Despite reassuring reports OF the
court dignitsries and military Of.
ticers, the car, 1t is alleged, lost his
nerve immediately and announced
his intention Of going to his summer
residence, Peterhoi. Objections were
raised by the dowsger empress, who
suggested Catschins. The car con-
sented, and the imperial family start
ed for there hastily.
The Libau correspondent OF the
