RIOTS ARE BREAKING
OUT IN RUSSIA

St Petersburg, July 5.-Riots
are breaking out throughout
southwestern Russia owing to
officials attempting to enforce
the sanitary laws. Cholera pre-
walls in many localities and the
authorities are trying to pre-
vent its spread. The peasants
believe the visits of the pesti-
lence are due to the anger of
God, so they will not try to es-
cape. The plague is gaining
rapid headway.
The peasants also fear the
sick persons will be ill-treated
by officials and they will do any,
thing to hide the i'll from the
doctors. Hundreds of these are
already dead of the plague and
more are rapidly joining the
ranks of the stricken.

TREASURY

Estimates for Next Ye

Every effort has been made by each de-
partrnent chief to reduce the estimated cost
of his department for the ensuing fiscal
year ending June 80, 1872 / say this In
order that Congress may understand that
these estimates thus made present the
smallest sum which will maintain the de-
partrnents bureaus and offices OF the gov
erument and meet its other obligations
under existing law. and that cut OF
these estimates would result in enbarrass-
ing the executive branch of the govern
ment in the performance OF its duties. This
remark does not apply to the river and
harbor estimates, except to those for ex-
penses Of maintenance and the meeting OF
obligations under authorized contracts. nor
does it apply to the public building bill
nor to the navy building programme OF
course, as TO these Congress could with
hold any part or all Of the estimates for
them without interfering with the dis
charge Of the ordinary obligations Of the
government or the performance OF the
functions of its departments. bureaus and
Offices.

These figures do not include the appropri-
ations for the Panama Canal. the policy
in respect 10 which ought to be and is TO
spend as much each year as can be eco
uomically and effectively expended in order
to complete the canal as promptly as pos
sible and, therefore. the ordinary motive
for cutting down the expense of the gov
ernment does not apply to appropriations
for this purpose. 1t viii be noted that the
estimates for the Panama Canal for the
ensuing year are more than $56,0O0.0 900. an
increase of 100000 over the amount ap-
propriated for this year-a difference due
to the fact that the estimates for 1912 in

TARIFF
NEGOTIATIONS.

The new tariff law. in Section 2. respect
ing the maximum and minimum tariffs of
the United States. which provisions came
into effect on April /. 1910, imposed upon
the President the responsibility of deter
mining prior TO that date whether or not
any undue discrimination existed against
the United States and its products in any
country Of the world with which we sus-
tanned commercial relations.
In the case of several countries instances
Ct apparent undue discrimination against
American commerce were found to exist.
These discrimina tions were removed by ne
gCt-ation. Prior to April 1, 1910, when the
ma ximum tariff was TO come into operation
with respect TO importatiOns from all those
countries in whose favor no proclamation
applying the minimum tariff should be is
sued by the President, 134 such procIama-
tions were issued. This series of procIama-
tions embraced the entire commercial world.
ana hence the minimum tariff of the United
s;attes has been given universal applica-
ton. thus testifying to the satisfactory
character of our trade relations with for
eign countries.
