THE GERMAN
 BUDGET INCREASED

Berlin. March 6.-Seeretary of the Treasury von Spengel introduc- ed his budget into the Reichstag to- day. It is on the same lines as the one that failed to pass in the old house. From the figures quoted by Von Stengel it appears that the rev enues for the fiscal year. which end cd March 31. 1906, amounted to s16,250, 900 more than in the pre- cedine year, which was due to the increase in the collection of rush imports in anticipation of the high CT tariff, which went into effect on March 31. The collection of the sugar tax had increased from two to two and a half million dollars, and the cigarette, brewing, freight and stamp taxes had increased s3 : 000, 900. Notwithstanding the in- crease in revenues. it will be neces- sary to issue an imperial loan of 50,000.O00.
