Splendid Balance
In u. S. Treasury,

Washington, June So When the
governments fiscal year of 1911 closed
today, the federal treasury held cash
surplus of at least s33, 100000 and show
ed an excess of all receipts over all dis
bnrsements for the first time since
1907.
While revised returns, showing the
governments exact financial condition
will not be available for several days,
frora such figures as are at hand and
such estimates as treasury officials
consider reliable, it is apparent that
the government during the last II
months received from all sources not
less than 1858. 000. 600, about $i0000.0 00
more than was expected and spent
$3.50, oeA.0 zoe, about s6,000,000 less than
was planned
For the first time income from in
ternai revenue and customs was near
ly equal While customs receipts for
the year fell 100000 900 and will stand
at about s312, 900 900. the internal rev
enue promises to total $315,00O, 900, the
greatest sum ever collected from that
source which will pass the record
breaking figures of 1866
Four causes have contributed to the
great Increase in the internal revenue,
The corporation tax is responsible for
$4,000, 600 whiskey and other spirits
SHE'S 900, 600, tobacco s62,000,00 and beer
SCI 900. 900
If tine final revision of the years fig
ures makes no material changes in to-
days estimates, the governments ex-
penditures have been. $4,000, 600 less III
1911 than in 1910, although they nave
exceeded those of 1906 1907 and 1908
Receipts have been s13,000,00O greater
than in 1910. The federal treasury en-
ters the fiscal year 1912 with more than
81 500, 100000 in cash stacked away IN
the steel ribbed vaults. the largest sun
ever held there.
