War Only Serves to Increase the Na- tional Stock—Figures of In- terest to the Whole Country. Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—The Treas- urer of the United States, Hon. Ellis H. Roberts, has submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury his annual report on the transactions and condition of the treasury for the past flscal year. The net ordinary revenues of the Govern- | ment were $405,321,335, an increase of $57,697,680 over those of the previous year, while the net ordinary expenses were $443,368 582, an increase of $77,694,- 423. The resulting deficiency of $38,- 047,247 exceeds that of the preceding ar by $19,994,793. In the receipts are included $64,751,- 223 paid into the treasury on account of the sale of the Union Pacific and Kan- sas Pacific railroads. Out of them were paid $29,850, of the bonds issued for the construction of the Pacific rail- roads, which went to increase the ex- penditures. Up to the close of the fiscal year the increase of the expenditures on account of the war with Spain was $43,041,732 for the War Department and $24.262,438 for the Navy Department. For the four months of July, August, September and October, 1808, the expenditures of the War Department were $107,520,368, be- ing $81,613,131 greater than for the same months in 1897. For the same months this year the Navy Department ex- pended $27,4; 7, which was $16,014,026 more than it spent in the like period in 1897. Up to October 31 the war with Spain added to the disbursements of these two depariments the sum of $164,- 932,228, Independently of the prospect of rev- enue or expenditure, the Treasurer re- gards the treasury as having been stronger’ at the close than at the open- ing of the fiscal year, the insignificant shrinkage in the amount of the assets having been more than compensated for in they improvement which took place in this character. Against a net loss of $7,600,000 in the total holdings available for the fiscal operations of the Government there was a gain of up- ward of $26,000,000 in free gold, coupled with an increase of nearly $23,000,000 in absolutely secured deposits with banks, and these changes were effected at no greater cost than the loss of so much in silver and treasury notes. The total available assets were $874,764,377 on June 30, 1897 and $839,- 606,736 & year later. By the addition of the unavailable assets carried by the department these totals are swelled to $904,411,776 and $849,202,941, respectively. On June 30, 1898, the Treasurer’s lia- 1 to the general treasury fund was 51,368, with one of $66,465,160 sus- tained in his capacity as the depositary of public officers, and one of 26,986,413 for moneys paid into his hand, but not yet covered by,warrant into the general account. The outstanding notes of the denomi- nations of $20 and under, which de- creased in volume by $11,522,157 from September 30, 1896, to the same date in 1897, increased by $41,657,037 in the twelve months ending September 30, 1898. The gold in circulation rose stead- | |ily by .$49,327,263 in the former of the | two periods and by $94,651,069 in the latter. The total currency of all kinds in circulation shows an increase of $96,- 9,249 in the former year, and one of 137,775,854 in the latter, a gain of $234,- 294,103 for the two years. In answer to inquiries from the West | ana Northwest the Treasurer has pre- pared a table which shows the amount of the capital, surplus, undivided profits and deposits of the national banks in the territory north of the Ohio and west of the Mississippi in July in each of the three last years. The aggregates for the three periods are successively ’3923.979,746. $918,252,479, and $987,840,166. | While these figures do not show the re- | sources of this sort in their complete- | ness, they furnish irresistible proof of the strength which this immense region has gathered in the instruments of commerce. In a chapter in which the Treasurer reviews the history of the net gold bal- ance in the country he says that prior | to September 1, 1898, the highest point which this balance had ever attained | was $219,059,232, on April 3, 1898. On | June 6, 1893, the amount was $89,589,364, | the lowest in fifteen years, or since | June, 1878. By the exchange of notes of gold with the banks the net gold | balance was brought up to $103,863,290 by August 10, 1893. Another minimum mark was reached February 1, 1894, at $65,438,378. By the proceeds of a sale of bonds amounting to $58,660,917 the net gold balance was increased to $107,- 446,802 by March 6. Under reaction, however, it again fell to $54,975,607 by the end of July, 1894. Another sale of bonds in November and December of that year brought in $58,719,710, and the gold balance on December 4, 1894, was again $111,142,021. The remedy was ef- fectual for only a brief period, for on February 11, 1895, the treasury held only $41,340,181 in free gold. Again bonds were sold, for which payments aggregating $65,428,066 were received from February to June. Thus the net gold balance was carried up to $107,591,- 230 by July 8, 1895. Once more the relief was but tempo- rary, and by February 8, 1896, the gold balance had fallen to $44,563,493. For { the fourth time resort was had to a | sale of bonds, which produced, up to | June, $111,355,612 and brought the gold | balance up to a maximum of $128,713,- | 700, from which point it sank again by July 22, 1896, to $89,669,975. Since that month the reserve of $100,000,000 has not been trenched upon. With some fluc- | tuations the tendency of the gold bal- | ance has been steadily upward. The | sources of supply have been the mines | of the Northwestern States, Alaska and | Australia, with importations from Eu- rope, the customs and the hoards of the banks. Until the beginning of the cal- endar year 1898 the receipts of gold at the New York Custom-house were a negligable quantity, but in March they rose to 17.6 per cent of the whole, in April to 52.7 per cent and after some fluctuations reached 78 per cent in Sep- tember and 79.6 in October. The tend- ers of gold from banks and individuals in exchange for paper have been greater than the resources of the Treasury have enabled it to accept. Large Starch Works Consumed.

SECOND TO NONE WE HAVE NICARATUAN CANAL MUST BE g BUILT. Shown by Recent Experience to Be Be Occupied to Begin With and Other Points Will Follow. wpecial Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, Nov. 3—The War Department has issued a general order for the movement of troops to Cuba. The first troops will leave on or about November 22 and will comprise a bri- gade under Brigadier General Carpen- ter. The brigade will be taken from the Seventh Army Corps, and one of the regiments to go will be the Third Geor- gla. The brigade will be sent to Neu- vitas and Puerto Principe. The order was issued only after very careful consideration of the reports of the military officers now in Cuba, and of the Hecker Board and other expert commissioners, who have been in the fleld. The order looks to the occupation of two points to begin with, namely, Neuvitas and Puerto Principe, but the occupation will be extended as rapidly as the Spanish evacuation proceeds. The order directs the movement to be- gin at once, but, according to the calcu- lations of the department, it will scarcely be possible to make the first landing before November 22. Head- quarters of the new corps which has been created for the purpose of begin- ning the occupation will be at Neuvitas under the command of General L. H. Carpenter. Following is the order as to the dis- position of the troops: The headquarters of six troops of the Eighth United States Cavalry and the Third Georgia Volunteers will be at Neu- vitas. Six troops of the Eighth United States Cavalry and the Fifteenth Infantry go to Puerto Principe. The regiment will be prepared to em- bark at once d the subsistence depar ment will arrange for the necessary ra- be equipped tions. The command will and rationed for sixty da. The Quartermaster Ger ment will furnish the nec transportation for use at the new sta- tions. The surgeon general will make provision for hospital and medical supplies. Brigadier General L. H.

Special Dispatch to The Call. CHICAGO, Nov. 3.—Rear Admiral J. N. Miller, who hoisted the flag over the Hawailan Islands and proclaimed them part of the United States, left this city this morning, after a day’s stay, for Springfield, O., his boyhood home. Ad- miral Miller will retire from the ser- vice in the navy on November 22. Be- fore leaving Admiral Miller said: “I believe the Pacific station to be only second in importance, if not the most important, naval station we have. I think so not because I have com- manded our fleets in those waters so many years, but because the rapid growth of the West Coast cities indi- cates that a large population will eventually reside there. I am, there- fore, greatly gratified that the Gov- ernment has seen fit to send two such magnificent battleships as the Oregon and the Iowa to the Pacific station.” Speaking of his prospective retire- ment, Admiral Miller said: “1 greatly regret the necessity of quitting the service at a time when I feel I am well able to fulfill my dutles, but I must give way to younger men. I have had my inning and must give others a chance.” With regard to the lessons gainéd by the late war he said: “First and foremost, I think the ne- cessity for the Nicaragua canal is the thing of prime importance to our navy. A country which has such a vast coast line on two oceans needs a route by which warships can be transferred from ocean to ocean without incurring the necessity of circumnavigating a conti- nent. I think the Nicaragua canal wiil be built in eight years. It is the only practical passage. “The chief difficulty to be surmounted in Nicaragua is the establishment of a port at Greytown. The shifting sands thereabouts render navigation difficult and considerable expense will be in- curred in fixing the harbor up. “Another necessity shown by the war is that of having a large number. of first-class battleships capable of sail- Seventh and Eighth United States Caval- ry, Is discontinued.

MONTREAL, Nov. 3—The award of the board of arbitration in the differential ap- peal of the Canadian Pacific against the decision of the board of managers of the Joint Traflic Association, which upheld the differential rate of the Grand Trunk from Toronto to New York, has been an- nounced and puts the Canadian Pacific on the same basis as the Grand Trunk. As the Canadian Pacific runs over the New York Central, which is not a dif- ferential road, it had to charge §12 higher than thé Grand Trunk. Both roads can now quote the same rate out of Toronto. L S ABERDEEN’S SUCCESSOR. Canada’s New Governor General and ‘Wife Leave London. LONDON, Nov. 3.—Among the distin- guished people who bade farewell to-day to the Earl and Countess of Minto, who jeft London to embark at Liverpool on board the Scotsman bound for Montreal were Henry White, secretary of the United States Embassy, and Mrs. White; Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal of Glencoe, the High Commissioner of Can- ada_and Lady Randolph Churchill, The Harl of Minto is on his way to Canada to assume the duties of Governor General ing eighteen knots an hour. We must have them, and I think we will have them. We want more ships like the recently launched Illinois. “With regard to Hawail, it was es- pecially pleasant for me to close a long service by presenting my country with a large and fertile territory. Ever since my first visit to Hawail in 50 I have been convinced that the islands should belong to us. I have visited Honolulu many times and have always been accorded a royal welcome there. It is now a thoroughly American city and we did right in taking it in.” ENTIRELY UNFOUNDED. No Bad Behavior Among Soldiers at Ponce.
