NATIONS FAT BANK ROLL.
Fiscal Year Begins With Surplus Of
More Than $87 ,OOO, 600.

Washington-So far as working pur-
poses are concerned the fiscal year of
the government closed recently with a
surplus of substantially $4,000, 900,
one of the largest net balances ever
shown. In the fiscal year 1902 there
was a surplus of $91, 1872, but that
was the largest since 1890.
While the official figures for the
fiscal year will not be announced for
a few days, the figures available are
approximately accurate. They show
that in the year just closed the reve-
nue. was 1865, 306,134, and expenditures
$57S,376,709, as compared with receipts
OF $594,454,121 for the last fiscal year
and expenditures of $56S,7S4,799, the
surplus in that year being $25, 669,322.
There has been a tremendous in
crease in receipts in the year just clos
ing, while the expenditures have been
only about 10,000,0Ov in excess of last
year. The largest increase in receipts
has been from customs, although in
ternal revenue has shown a big gain.
The receipts this fiscal year in customs
were $3.50, 230, 126, and in internal reve-
hue $27O,309,38S.
The customs receipts last year held
the record up to that time and this
years income from that source is
about $33,00O,000 in excess of last
year.

ROCKEFELLER GONE
CHICAGO JUDGE WANTS HIM
To ANSWER QUESTIONS.
Oil Trust Business Is Being lnvesti-
gated-Strict Seach Is Being Made
Where It Is Thought the Oil Mag
mates May Be Stoping-AII Officers
of Company Are Subpoened.

Chicago-United States writ serv-
ers from the court of Judge Lands
began preparations to circumvent
steps that may be contemplated by
John D. Rockefeller, head of the gi-
gantic Standard Oil monopoly, in
evading the necessity of coming to
Chicago to answer certain questions
that the court will put to him concern
ing the business of the oil trust which
will be put on July 6.
1t was said at the federal building
that the local govement officials are
following out the desire of the ma
tional administration to bring Rookie
Teller to the witness stand where the
financial secrets and inner workings
of the giant corporations may be had.
According to some statements Judge
Lands is in reality aiding President
Roosevelt's trust investigation policy.
United States Attorney Sims recently
went east for mysterious conference
at Washington and it is believed that
he received instructions from the pres
ident to go after the big guns.
| Copies Of the subpenas issued for
the appearance of Rockefeller have
been sent to every place where it is
thought the oil magnate may be stop
ping. Dispatches from the east today
were unsatisfactory as to the present
whereabouts of the president of the
Standard Oil company of New Jersey,
but wherever he may be there does not
seem much of chance for him to
keep out OF the reach of the federal
officers who, it is stated, may use force
in the serving of the writ.
Judge Lands also requested the
United States marshal's office that all
the subpenas issued be served on all
the officers of the Standard Oil COM
lpany, including Mr.. Rockefeller, as
soon as possible.
Where Is Rockefeller?
Cleveland, Ohio.-John d. Rookie
Teller is lost. He is not at Forest Hill,
Pontiac Hills, with his relatives in
Massachusetts, at Lakewood. N. j., nor
in Georgia. There are two other places
where he is not. These are in Chicago
and Findlay, Ohio.

May See War
In Central America

Mexico City, July 8. - Word has
reached this city that President Cab
rera Of Guatemala has caused the ar
rest of 100 citizens of that republic on
the charge of alleged completely in the
recent attempt to assassinate him. All
were thrown into prison and later
herded into squads of 30 and tried in
groups. Two bands have tried and
many been of the accused sentenced to
death. Among the men imprisoned are
some of the most wealthy and promi-
nent men in the country. The state
ment is made that these men have long
been on Cabrera's blacklist. and the
charges made against them were trum-
ped up for political reasons.
The report has created excitement
among Central America residents in
this city, and at mass meeting to be
held Sunday the matter will be dis
cussed.
When the news of the wholesale ar.
rest became generally known, the dip.
lomatic corps, with the exception OF
Phillip M. Brown, the United States
charge d'affaires, protested. No at.
tention was paid to these protests by
President Cabrera.
The British minister was thereupor
charged with drawing up note detail
ing the incidents of the trial, which
was characterized as a farce. This
note is to be sent to the powers.
The dispatch says that absolute chaos
reigns in Guatemala. Farmhands are
being impressed for military service
and crops are rotting in the fields. The
rich are threatened with ruin unless
they contribute to the war fund.
Troops are being hurriedly rushed tt
the Mexican frontier and the Hondur
an borders, and San Salvador. Specia
trains of artillery are being sent out tt
the frontier. The legations are being
beseiged by relatives and friends of tbs
imprisoned men, who fear that they
will be unceremoniously put to death.
