A DIFFERENCE OF NEARLY @300.000—THE com- MISSIONERS ADDRESS CONGRESS ON THE SUB- JECT—THEY SUGGEST THAT THE APPROPRIA- TIONS BE REDUCED OR SOME OTHER REMEDY BE APPLIED. The Commissioners today addressed the fol- lowing letter to both houses of Congress: “The Commissioners have the honor to invite your attention to the fact that the estimated revenues of the District of Columbia for the fiseal year 1890 are inadequate to meet the re- quirements of pending appropriation acts and others already passed at the present session. The last estimate submitted by the Commissioners while the District bill was under consideration by the committee on appropriations of the House of Representatives, & copy of which was also fur- nished to the Senate committee on appropriations, placed the reve- nues to be derived from taxes and Miscellaneous sources at... ... . $2,600,600.22 Add the amount to be contributed by the United States '2,600,600.22 Total amount of revenue for ‘91. .85,201,200.44 The District bill as agreed to in conference appropriates out of the general fund, exclusive of water fund, the sum of. . : 096.97 Bill for maintenance sociagioa ee Supplemental deticrencies Total amount chargeable to'91. .€5,673,036.97 Total amount chargeable to rev- enues for "91.... 2d Deficiency in revenues...... ++ 9471,886.53 “In the estimates submitted by the Commis- sioners October 1, 1839, the sum of $97,500 for ew buildings wasincluded, but the subeom- mittee of the House committee on pria- tions objected to this item and at hea rer!

In addition to the foregomg we are advised that there are other pending appropriations out of the District revenues, which will still further increase the deficiency. In view of these facts the have the honor to suggest that the spppropristions be reduced in order to bring em within the limits of reasonable an‘ tion as to the revenues of the District govern- ment for the year ending June 30, 1891, unless tome other provision can be made. Without desiring to be importunate, we would again suggest the advisability of the Senate amendment to the Distriet bill, providing for the payment of the appropriations for the new Water main and for the establishment of the zoological park in twenty-five annual instal- ments, If this be done the revenues of the District will be sufficient to meet the proposed @ppropriations for 1891.” Services in the Temperance Tent.
