SECRETARY . FOSTER'S FIG URES
GREAT
REDUCTION
To run a big machine like the 'United
States government is :i tremendnne Vhp
iness, and the monetary" considerations
involved, as shown by Secretary Foster's
report, are something iinmnee. For
the present fiscal year the revenues are
estimated as follows:
Customs .tHW,(Ho,ooo
Internal revenue ltw,(HX),W'0
Miscellaneous, aujUHMMm
Postal service . xii.:Ui;,:Vit
Total v. :,ji6.:t.T0
The expenditures are as follows:
Civil establishment JHiK.0oo.0OO
Military establishment -I'UJUO.mKl
Naval establishment :!1.(XH),C01
Ii dian service .(io,O00
Pensions .... l.vs.ooo.i im!
Interest on public debt ai.nno.ni
Postal service .s(i,:i!ii.:i"i
Total fUl,:K5,3.
, This' ltjaves an estimated surplus for
the year of $2,0l).000. The available
cash balance iu the treasury at the end
of the fiscal year was $120,992,378. The
revenues for the fi.scal year 1894 re es
timated at $-M0,121,365. Theappropria
tions required are $457,261,33o, exclusive
of the sinking fund, orestimated surplus
of 328,o00.0:tt), which with the cash bal
ance: above the gold reserve would make
the available balance $5352,407, and
deducting accruing obligations would
leave $48,852,407. Chargeable against
this are unspent river and harbor and
ordinance, appropriations of $44,000,000
and no account taken of the sinking
fund of the requirements amounting to
$48,600,000 beyond the redemption es
timated at $5,000,000.
Congress has adjourned over to Mon
day. The famous Garreghan case is
Btjll pending. A vote may be taken on
the anti-option bill Monday. '. A, bill
making it unlawful for any common
carrier to insert in a bill of landing a
clause to release it from liability or loss
in transportation of merchandise com
mitted to its care, passed the house.
Representative Anthony, of Texas, in
troduced a bill repealing the act of June
17th, 1890, granting pensions to soldiers,
Bailors, widows, minor children and de
pendent parents of soldiers "and suilois.
The bill also provides that all pensions
granted under the act shall be discontinued.
Democratic leaders from all parts of
Kansas are attending a meeting of the
democratic central committee in Topeka
today to decide the senatorial question.
There are numerous candidates in the
field. With the aid of one democrat the
populists can elect a senator, and Sena
tor O'Brien, though a straight demrat,
maks it impossible to elect any demo
crat other than a fusionist and populist.
The caucus is to decide who that fusion
ist will be.
We' hear occasionally that there are
'democrats still fighting Cleveland, but
it is a little bard to understand what
they are doing it for. Even Grover's
.gall is not large enongh to make him
think there is anything for him after his
term as president expires. He can
hardly have the ambition to run the
political scale backward and round out
his' life by being once more- sheriff of
Erie county.

"While the alleged diamond discovery
in Idaho has been a great puzzle, theie
does not seem to be good ground for
doubting that such discovery has been
made. Mr. Vandorn admits that there
has been a purpose to prevent the pub
lic from, hearing just now where the
fields are. He said this evening that it
would be two wetsks lefore the secret
could be disclosed.
In May next Frank Fordyce, a young
stock baron of Idaho, will attempt to
drive from the center of that state to
Oallala, Neb., 4o,000 sheep, a distance
of 1.000 miles. The trip will occupy six
months. The sheep will have to cross
the Roekv mountains in the wildest
part, and will have to ford scores of
6treams.
President Lilly of the Pullman agri
cultural college has been discharged
without trial seemingly, and while un
able to be present and answer the charge
that had been filed. It looks as though
the regent? had token an undue'advan-
tage of their opportunity.
It is learned from an authoritative
source that the, Mexican government
will present a petition to the United
States asking that the Apache Indians
whojiow occupy a. reservation in Ari
zona near the Mexican boundary le
removed to a greater distance.
In conseauence of official news that
cholera has broken out. again in Ham
'burg, the Colombian government has
closed its ports- against all vessels hav
ing left Hamburg after today.
Blainee' condition is much less favor
able. All reports indicate that Death
will soon visit the Blaine mansion.'
