'l'he lonpdelayed budget statement was presented to the house 01 com« mons Thursday by Sir Michsel Hicks- Beaeh. the chancellor oi’ the exchequer. The statement. from the standpoint of the British taxpayer, was most discour- aging. The national balance sheet for 1900-1901 shows a net deficit of £53m 207,200 ($206,036,000). The Boer war. according to the chancellor, has cost the government £146,587,000 (8732,- 835,000), or double the cost of the Crimean war. The total expenditures for 1901â€"1902 are estimated at £18k 002.000 ($938,010,000), or which £58.- 320,000 ($291,000,000) is for the Boer war, while the revenues will yield only within £57.000.000 ($285,000,000) of this amount. This deficiency is to he met in part by an increase in the in- come tax, and a tax on raw sugar. mo- lasses. syrups, glucose and coal. To meet the remaining deficit, which is estimated at $230,707,000 ($198,535,000): the chancellor proposes to borrow £60,000.000 ($300,000,000) upon con- suls. Sir Michael stated that it was estimated that the total expenditures this year would amount to £187,602,- 000. 0! which £58,320,000 would be {or carrying on the war. l BRITAIN’S NEED' LMD BARE.

They recog- nized him as commander in chief, send- ing him reports occasionally, and he issued some orders; but for the last seven months communication had been diflicult and he had been almost dis- connected.

He said he was doing all he could to assist in the pnclncatlon oi' the Philippines. and expressed himself as surprised at what the Americans had accomplished. When he was first captured. he went on to say, he was greatly astonished to find that a majority of the Filipinos entertained the opinion that American sovereignty 'was preferable to inde- pendence, but now he was inclined to believe that way himself. rotâ€"cl- III-urgent hula:- I: Buy Sond- h' lnltl'uolloo. to Ill- !ollovgln to Come the [lapel-u snug-law‘w-nh to Promote Wall." 0!

The {act that for runny months there has been nothing in the shape of a de facto government favors the latter hypothesis. Every- thing will depend upon the Franco- Germnn expedition inflicting a severe defeat upon the Chinese who have. transgressed the agreement by enterâ€" ing into the sphere of the allies.

At 9 o'clock Sunday morning the track was cleared and trains begun moving. The same trouble kept the Cleveland trains of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie late. five trains having been thiockaded at Win- dom, near Leavlttsburg, for twentyc five hours. This snowfall did not ex. tend east of Newcastle, but at Youngs- town. Ohio, it was two feet deep. and the drifting in the cuts north of that i oily were up to locomotive headlights. The submerged districts In Pitmhurg and Allegheny were Sunday a scene of. abject misery. Collars and in some in- stances the first floors of stores and dwellings are covered with water. Where the flood has subsidod it has left behind a greasy, yellow scum two to three inches deep. The damage to lur< niture and buildings in Alirgheny is estimated at about $100,000. It will take two months of hot summel‘ weather thoroughly to dry out these houses. in Plttshuxg the loss to real. dences and stores and goods and the; cost of elmning up will amount '0 nmout $250,000. 0510 V-lloy Idiomâ€"Damn It Huh burg About 03,090.00”).
