which $28,000,0OO was to be added for Panama canal disbursements. Some additional estimates have been sent in since then, however, and substantial additions to the proposed appropria- tions have been made by the house committees in drafting the supply bills Secretary McAdoo's estimate of revenues, exclusive of the post office department, was $72S,O00,000. This included s220,00O,ooO from GUS toms, $305,000,00O from ordinary in ternal revenue, $54,O00,O00 from the emergency war tax and $S0,00O,000 from the income and corporation tax.
 So far as the income tax law goes, there is no accurate data available yet in the treasury department on which officials can base an estimate of what may be expected this fiscal year. Last year 1t produced about $60,000,000 from corporations and in dividuals. MT. McAdoo expects to get $sO,0o0,O0o from the tax this year.
 Affect of War.
 Consideration is being given to the effect the European war and financial conditions in the United States may have on returns from the income tax. How marked this may be officials do not pretend to know. The net bal ance last night in the treasury was about $5e,0OO,000. It is slowly drop ping, and some officials are inclined to believe that if the ship purchase bill becomes a law, the government will issue Panama canal three per cent. bonds to provide the 10000, 900 to buy stock in the shipping corpora ton it creates. MT. McAdoo said last night that he had not taken up this question. The secretary has author ity to issue canal bonds to the amount of $24o,569,OO0 if necessary.

APPEALS TO BRYAN
 TO AID PRISONERS
Austrian Foreign Minister Dtp|oTcs
 Conditions in Russia.

Berlin, Jan. "A, By Wireless Teleg- ceived here today from Vienna that the Austrian foreign minister, Baron Stephan Burian, had telegraphed to Secretary Bryan at Washington ex- pressing regret that the American diplomatic representative in Russia, into whose care Austrian interests in that country were committed at the outbreak of the war, had not been able to afford better protection to Aus trian and German prisoners of war. Baron Burian suggests that the Amer ican ambassador at Petrograd make new representations to the Russian government in behalf of the prison CTS.
 The condition of the prisoners, Baron Burian says, has not been inn proved, either in France or Russia since Secretary Bryan took action in their behalf some time ago. Baron Burian requests a telegraphic reply from MT. Bryan.
 Forwarded Two Requests.
 The state department at Washing ton last month forwarded to Petro- grad two requests from the Austro- Hungarian government for better treatment for Austrian and German prisoners of war. Especial emphasis was laid upon allegations that prison CTS in Siberian camps were being treated inhumanely. It was also stated that conditions in French de- tention camps were bad. The state department auth orized Dr.. Paul Reinsch, American minister to Pe- king, to confer with the Russian min ster there with a view to having an investigation made by American mis- sionaries in Siberia of conditions among the prisoners.

 Very Bad in Siberia.
 Dr. Dumba thinks the plight of civilians detained in Siberia is very bad. These, it was declared, have been without employment, lack of proper food and clothing, and in many instances have only the scant. sum- mer clothing they wore when they were forbidden to leave the country in m1lder weather, several months ago.
 It was said that two Austrian sur geons, who escaped from Russian mill ltary prisons, are now on their way across the Pacific ocean to San Fran cisco, whence they will come to Washington with first hand informa tion of conditions from which they have escaped.
