o0,0oo day, and although the customs
receipts are beginning to increase, II Is
estimated that the deficit Will amount to
at least $50 100000 by the first OF the year.
and probably will exceed this figure
The receipts Of the country are falling
far behind the income, and in the closing
days of his administration the President
is anxious that retrenchment be inaugu-
rated TO make the two sides OF the ma.
TONS ledger approximate a balance
Members Of the cabinet have received
no written orders to cut their estimates
The instructions have been given at cab
met meetings. when the finances OF the
government have formed an important
topic Of discussion by the President and
his advisers. Tho heads OF the depart
ments admit that the order to rctrench
has gone forth, and that they will cut
the estimates to- the bone. but they have
not yet succeeded In making the reduc-
lions. and will not discuss the matter in
detail.
MUST REDUCE APPROPRIATIONS
The appropriations for last year
amounted to more than $1,000, 900. 600 A
determined effort will be made To- re-
ducc this total, but If this effort fails
the night will be directed to prevent an
increase in the budget.
As several heads of departments have
explained 1t will he almost impossible
