The Exposition Deficit.
The receipts of the jamestown expo

are now estimated at $1,000,000, and
this foreshadows q deficit of something
over S3,O00000. The buildings alone
have cost $5,000,000. Barely more than
10 per cent of the government loan has
been paid.
Banks Issue Few Notes.
The refusal Of many important banks
to Issue notes up to or near the limit
imposed by law, as requested by Sec
rotary Cortelyou. has greatly displeas-
ed the administration. and in confer
ences with New York bankers the
treasury chief made 1t known en-
phatically that in future such banks
might expect no consideration in the
way os government deposits. 1t is
pointed out that the national banks
might add $25O000.O00 to the available
tupply Of currency If they would take
the trouble without exceeding their le-
gal limit. AS matter of fact, the new
issues TO date amount to only about
s15.0OOOO0, the bankers being unwill-
ing to pay the small tax collected on
such notes.
Secretary Cortelyou began the with
