1899 Deficit 10 Top
All j. S.Costs From
1889 Through 1864
Years Total to Exceed
76 Years of Federal
Expenditures
Special Dispatch to the Star.

NEW YORK, Nov. THE start
ling fact that the estimated Fed
eral deficit for the year 1899 is
$l33, 100000 higher than the total
amount of money spent by the Fed
eral Government from the Revo-
lutionary War through the Civil
War, during the 76 years from
1891 1864, appears in a recent study
by the statistical division of the
National Industrial Conference
Board.
For 1899 the estimated Federal
deficit is $3,985 100000, while the
Federal Government spent only So
852 100000 for the entire period
through 1864. One years deficit is
over a hundred million dollars
higher than rs years expenses.
Another interesting comparison
shows that the deficit for the nine
years, 1879, is nearly $780, 900 900
greater than Federal expenditures
for the 125 years, 1789-l9l3. In
other words, since 1881 our Gov
ernment has incurred greater
deficit. $248l4,000,0O than it was
able to spend in all the years up
to the start of the World War, a
sum of S24 $4,000 900.
The deficit for two months in
modern times, July and August,
1888, is 40 million dollars greater
than the average amount spent per
year during the period 19OO-l3.

Ban on Associated Gas
Extension Upheld
By the Associated Press.

The Federal Circuit Court of
Appeals today upheld an order
restraining the Associated Gas e.
Electric Co. from extending the
maturity date of its investment GER
tlflcates without first obtaining ap-
proval from the Securities & Fy-
change Commission under the Public
Utility Holding Company Act.
The ruling was made in an appeal
from an order issued by Federal
Judge John w. Clancy, who des-
lgnated the company's action in ex-
tendlng the maturity date of out
standing 5i2 per cent convertible
certificates from November Is with
out the consent of the S. E. C. as
"a rubber stamp process which
violated provisions of the Holding
Company Act.
The Associated Gas lawyers in
recent argument before the Appel
late Court contended the process of
extension adopted by the company
did not violate the law inasmuch as
no new securities were involved. 1t
was on this contention that the
Circuit Court ruled today.
