Secretary Car- flulo's report on tlio statement of finances was sent to congrm today. It phnws that the revenues of the government from all foiircci during tlio ( Heal year amounted to $ 98,373,203. The expenditures during the tame period aggregated $133,178,120 , leaving a deficit for the year of $ l2,80r.,223. As compared \\lth the fiscal year , 1S94 , tlio receipts for 1895 Increased $17,070,705 , and there was a decrease of $11,329,081 In tlio ordinary expenditures , which Is largely ac counted for by a reduction of $11,131,035 on fciiKflr bounties * . Tin revenues for the cur- ruil fiscal year arc estimated upon the basis ( if cxU'tliiK lawi at $131,907,107 , and the expenditures at $148,907,407 , which will leave n deficit of $17,000,000. Tor the coming fiscal year , ending Juno 30 , 1S97 , the Eocrjtary estimates the re ceipts at $4CJ,793,120 , and the expenditures at $157,881,193 , or an estimated surplus of $ C)08.927. ) The secretary states briefly the facts con cerning the Issues of bonds during the yc-ir , the particulars of which have already b-en reported to congress. The secretary devotes a large share of his report to a discussion of the condition of the treasury and currency , In the course of which he makes an cxhaiwtlra argument In fnvor of the retirement of the greenbacks OPERATIONS OF TUB THEASUUY. "Iho cash balance In the treasury on the Ibt day of December , 1895 , " ho says , "was tl77,400,380 , being 598,072,420 In oxcssa of tlio actual gold reserve on tint day , and $77,400S7C In excess of any sum that It % trilild ho necessary to USD for replenishing that fund In cass the secretary should at any time ho able to exchange currency for gold. There IH , therefore , no reason to tloubi the ability of the governmint to discharge all Its current obligations during the pres ent fiscal year , and havr * a largo ca"h bal ance at Its close , without Imposing additional taxation In any form upon the people ; but I adhere to the opinion , heretofore ex pressed , that the secretary of the treasury ought always to have authority to Issue or H va In the payment of expenses short time bonds bearing a low rate of Interest to supply casual deficiencies In the revenue. "With a complete return to the normal business conditions of the country and a proper legislate p and executive supirvlslon over expenditures the revenue laws now In force will , In my opinion , yield ample means for the support of the public servlc ? upon the bisls now established , and upon the as sumption which seems to bo Justified that the I p ogress now being made toward the restora tion of our usual state of prosperity will continue , without yerlouH interruption , It Is estimated that there will ho a surplus of nearly $7,000,000 during the fiscal year 1897. During the flycal years 1891 and 1895 the ordinary expenditures of the government have besn deciecsed $27,282,05020 as compared with the fiscal year 1893 , and It Is believed that , with the co-operation of congress , fur ther reductions can be made In the future without Impairing the efllclency of the public Kftrvlniv * ' WITHDRAWALS OK GOLD. Continuing , he says : "The larg ? with drawals of geM In December , 1891 , and In January and the early part of February , 1893 , wo.u duo almost entirely to a feeling of ap- preheablon In tlio public mind , which In creased in Intensity from day to day until It nearly reached , the proportions of a panic , and It was evident to all who were familiar with the situation that unless effectual stcpy were piomjitly taken to check the growing distrust tno government would bu compelled within a few days to stop gold payments and drop to a depreciated tilver and papo- standard. .More than $43,000,000 of the amount withdrawn during the brief period last mentioned was not demanded for ex port , but was taken out by people who had I ccomu alarmed on account of the critical condition nf the treasury In Its relations to the currency of the country. The purchase of : : , r,00,000 ounces of gold followed , It bslng In the contract that not less than one-half of the gold was to he- procured abroad , but after a largo part of the gold had been fur nished from abroad the secretary , In older to prevent disturbance In the- rates of foreign exchange at a critical period and to avoid a condition which would force gold exports nud consequent withdrawals from the treas ury , acquiesced In a departure from the llt- * Sal terms of the contract that one-half of the coin should bo procured abroad , and ac cepted deposits of gold then held In this count ) y to complete' the delivery. Ordinary prudence demanded that the success of the plan to protect the treasury agalnct with drawals should not bo endangered by In- sls-tlng upon a strict compliance with all the details of the contract , especially as the gov- eminent count sustain no loss aim tno wnsie Riucunt of gold stipulate 1 for v.-as oecured. SAYS HE HESTOUEO CONFIDENCE. "Tho amount of bonds Issued under this contract was $02,315,400 and the amount of KOld received was $05,110,241,02. " The benellclal eltrcta of this transaction , the seoicUry says , vvtro felt Immediately , not only In this couutiy but In every othei having commercial relations with us.

"I um thoroughly convinced that th's ' policy ought not to be continued , but that the United Stales notes and treasury notes should he retired from circulation at the carll Et pract cabin day , and that ths govern ment should be wholly lullevcd from the re sponsibility of prov'dlng n credit currency far His people. ' "It would be difficult , If not Impossibly to dovlsj a more Inconvenient , oxpenslvo or dangerous system than the one now In opeiatlon under the laws providing for the I'sue , redemption and re-Issue of legal tend - d r norcs by the government. "There has 'never ' been a tlmo since the cluso of the war , " the secretary says , "when the gradual retirement and cancellation of the United States notes would not have been a benefit to the country , nor has there ever been a tlmo when the Issue of additional notes of the same character would not have been Injurious to the country. "If otti legal tender notes were retired there Is abundant reason to believe thdt a very large amount of gold which has b cn excluded from the country by the excessive use of silver and paper In our circulation would promptly return to take Its place In our currency and constitute a p'rmancnt part of our medium of exchange. A country hav ing such extensive trade relations with other nations as we now enjoy cannot be de prived ot Its proper shore of the world's stock of money , and If It adopts and ad here * to a sound and stable currency sys tem at home , It will get the best money the world has because no other kind Is ever used In In'ernatlonal transactions. As long as the government leaves our people reason ably free to trade abroad and does not make any kind of paper legal tender lu the pay ment of the debts , It cannot materially or Injuriously contract the currency by the withdrawal of Its own notes. WOULD NOT HE CONTRACTION. "The retirement and cancellation of legal tender notes would not necessarily produce any contraction of the circulation ; and If such a result should follow and continue for any cansdeiable period , It would be a dem onstration of the fact that the volume of currency previously existing was not needed In the business of the people , for whenever the volume Is reduced below the actual re quirements of trade , the deficiency will be supplied either from abroad In exchange for our products and securities , or by the banks at home , or both. "Tho United States no'es and the treasury notes issued In pajment for silver bullion , together amounting at the beginning to $502,012,018 , have been uied and are still bel'ig ' used to withdraw gold from the gov ernment whenever our own people or the government or peoples of other countries see proper to demand for any purpose , and under the laws now existing the secretary uf the treasury hao no means of complying with these demands except bj the Issue and sale of Interest-bear ing bonds under the act of January II , 1875 , or by the purchase of gold coin with bonds cr notes of the United States under Rpoflnn 3,700 of the revised statutes. Against these demands the treasury has no available means ot defense except at the uacriflce of the public credit and the Immediate depreciation of the entire volume of our currency. OUR CREDIT UNDERMINED. "Lomj adherence to a false sjstem has to a great extent undermined our national credit so fai as It Is related to the maintenance of a sound currency , and It must be recon structed , not merely propped up by frail and temporary supports. No surplus revenue , however large , co'ild extricate us from our present dlllicultles , on give assurance of safety In the future unless It should be re quired to be paid In gold under a system which would exempt the government from the obligations to fuinlsh the gold when de manded to be u ed In marking the payments ; and It Is scarcely necessary to suggest that such a sjstem Is Impossible as long as the United States notes and treasury notes arc kept In circulation and are redeemable In gold bj the government Itself on presentation. "The opinion seema to prevail to some ex tent that the mere possession of a surplus In the treasury would prevent withdrawals of gold and thus render the Issue of bonds for the ( irotect'on ' of the reserve unnecessary , but this view ot the subject Is founded , In my Judgment , upon < in entile misconception of the causes that have produejd the with drawals. Unless I am wholly mistaken they have very little , If any , relation to the amount of money held by the government or to ths amount of money the government has ability to raise by taxation or otherwise , but they relate primarily and almost exclusively to tlio character of money that It might be able to sunnlv and keen In eirnnlatlnn. Tn other words , It was apprehension as to the kind of money to be used , and not as to thp amount of money on hand , that brought our secuiltles back from abroad for sale , caused foreign Investors to withdraw their capital and foreign creditors to collect th lr debts and compelled our own people to suspend or contract their business operations and thus diminish the Incomes cf emplo > ers and greatly reduce or entirely htop the wages of labor. SIMPLY WANTED GOLD. "Large withdrawals have seen made dur ing the last three years blmply because gold was wanted , and the desire to secur ? gold vas due to a growing dlftiust of the o'hsr kinds of currency In circulation , and not U all to any apprehension that the govern ment would not be able to dlscharg > all its obligations In borne kind of paper or coin Wl.en the icc.'ipts for cubtoms consisted > eryt largely of geM , as was the caw > prior to July 1 , 1892 , before the r-sults of our de fective cunency had besn fully developed , a sin plus levciiue enabled the tr asury to pav out sold without disturbing the reserve" and , besIdJB , there was at that time no gieat d iiiaml for cold b > the presentation of notes for lelemptlon , and theia would , therefore have been no dllllculty In maintaining ths res.rve , .oven If th're had been no surplus In the treasury , but the ccnd tloiii have entliely changed and an entirely different lollcy Is d mantled to meet the situation now exist ng. With or without n suiplus avenue , the goveinment can now procure gild on ! > by negotiating loans or by mak ing purchases under the statute , and this btato of affairs , which Is the natural rctul * of cans s st'll ' operative , Is almost certain to continue- until the causes themsehes ar ? ren oxed.

"WASHINGTON , Dec. 1C. ( Special Tele gram. ) Senators who desire to make the Union Pacific a continuous line from Omahi to the Pacific ocein , have been successful with tli2 formation of the commutes on 1'aclflo roads In so far as the chairman of the committee Is concerned , today's disclosures placing John H. Gear of Iowa , at the head ot the commltttee. The selection of Mr. Gear Is acceptable to a grJat majority of western t'jnators , but the turning down of Warren and Clarke , one of whom hoped to be on this committee , Is something ot a disappoint ment. Secretary Carllsh In his annual report sajs under the head of Pacific1 railroads : "Since my last report bonds for $2JG2,000 Issaed to the Central Pacific and $610,000 Issued to the Kansas Pacific have maturad and been paid by the United States ; and on the 1st day of January , IS9G , more bonds will mature , viz. ; $1,000,000 Issued to the Central Pacific , $1,410- OCO Issued to the Kansas Pacific and $ G40,000 I'suo dto the Union Jaclflc. The total amount due and to become due on or before the1 1st diy of January , 1S9G , Is $ G4,623,512 , exclusive cf Interest , and It Is evident that unless some adju'tmcnt Is made under authority of an net of congress payment of this large sum with accruing Intelest must be provided for within that time mined. If property of com panies should unfortunately be forced to sale under foreclosure proceedings by further provision and made by congress to protect the Interest of the government by Increasing Its security or otherwise , no public official , with the limited authority now conferred by law , will be able to save any considerable part of this large claim. Congress alone Sias power to determine the manner In which this Important subject shall bs disposed of , and It Is hoped that such legislation as It may dcm necessary and proper will be en acted at an early day.

' With this arrangement perfected. It Is thought Mercer will come infer for chairmanship of public buildings and grounds , Mllliken being ths senior hold-over republican now on the committee. From a doz'n sources Mercer's name way beard .mentioned today for this place. The State department today recslved information mation that one of the McCarty gang In Sarpy county had attempted violence upon the person of a British subject , the Information mation bsing lodged with the State derart- in3iit by the British ambassador. Sir Julian Pauncefote. The Nebraska delegation has been impor- tured lately to aid In passing the bill extend ing tlms of assessment work on oil and min eral lands , a number of Omaha citizens being Il.terested In havinc such n measure nlace.i on the statute books In view of the fact that committees in neither senate nor houe have ben appointed and house committees will probably not be reported before Triday legislation looking to an extension of time will not be possible before January 1 , when amounts due will have to be paid. This will work a hardship on a numb'r of western people on account of hard times , but there seems to bo no redress at this time. UATCHELDER OBJECTS TO THE BILL From a talk had with Quartermaster Gen eral Batchelder Saturday Congressman Mer cer states that It will be Impossible to pass the Port Omaha military school bill , General Batchelder objecting to th ° bill as It gives no assurance tint the state of Nebraska will maintain the school after the title is vested In the state. In view of this Mr. Morccr will Introduce a now bill ceding the Tort Omaha reservation to the city of Omaha for a publ c park , museum and "zoo" garden This , bill , It Is thought , can be passed early this season In time to take effect July 1 next. Senator Allen Introduced a bill granting to owners of lands of Sac and Pox Indians In ths btates of Kansas and Nebraska the right to sell rights , of ways to ths Atchlson & Nebraska lallway and the Chicago , Bur lington & Quincy , Its lessee , 100 feet wide at $25 per acre , the land now w anted bo'ng In Richardson county , Nebraska. The bill provides for encroachment of the Missouri and Gieat Nemaha rivers and will enable the railroad to remove Its tracks from the present trend of these streams.

Armour has just come lo light , and every effort Is being made to apprehend the perpe trators of the plot. This morning two pack ages wire received at Postal Station L , cf which William H , Hanlon Is superintendent , directed lo P , D. Armour and George M. Pullman respectively , and the packages were finally turned over to Postofilce inspector Stuart for Inspection. They * provsd to be Infernal machines' ' , which , had they reached their declination and been opanod without tnsplclon by the men for whom they were Intended , wtuld have blown thfm Into eter nity. The package.i were Inkon up by Col lector Philip Klrkwood of Station L One ot them ho found on the mall box at Wabash avenue and Fourteenth street and the other at Wabash avsmie and Twenty-first "street. The second machine was placed on the box Just as Klrkwood approached It to make his collection. Ho saw a man cf rough appear- once lay a package on the box and walk away. When he reached the mall box he found the package to 1 > ? similar to the one he had picked up at Fourteenth street , and addressed In the eamo handwriting. The postal authorities were already on ths lookout for suspicious packages for Armour , as a stranger had told attaches cf his ofllc * that an Infernal machine vvns on Its way to Mr. Armour through the mall. A sim ilar visit was paid Mr. lullman ] Sunday night , presumably the same parsons who took the trouble to Inform Mr. Armour's people. Mr. Pullman ha'd already retired and did not see the wltn"sy , who nppsared very much anxious and worried to see the millionaire lu pcrton. He delivered his mcs- sage , howevpr , v.'lthcut seeing' Mr. Pullman. The man who gava the warning Is said to bo a metal polisher named Owens , but this has not yet been entirely continued. This aiteinoon Mr. Pullman made an effort to locate the owner of the card ) but In this he \\asi unsuccessful. He dispatched a conflden-1 tlal agent to the pine ? of business specified on the card , but was told tle | person whose name It showed was absent , being an out-1 side man and fcldom at the headquarters of I the firm. Mr. Armour Is now on his way to Jacksonville , Da. , having left tli ? city on ' Sunday. The dangerous character , of the packages has been established bejond' a doubt. A trial test of their contents was made and this proved that the packages ccntalricd an e\ploslv % In force akin to dynamite. The , I packages were about eight Inches long with ' three-Inch cmle. Thty wore wooden boxes , each containing a drawer. Matches were sa | ' arranced Inside as to b lanlted bv the fric tion with sandpaper , \\lilcli was glued to the box above the drawer , when the latter was pulled out. The boxes were' well provided with the explosive , but In thi bottom was placed a plec ? of lead pipe * several Indies long.Tho The arrest of Albert Reaser was made on the strength cf the statements made by Col lector Klrkwood , v\ho said that the man whm he saw place the package on the box resembled a man who had been arrested last su-nmer for throwing Etonei at Mr. Pull man's windows. He was undjr the Impres- u'on that the men were cue and the same and Reaser , who was the stone thrower , was at once brought in. He denl ° s In the strong est manner that he tent awaj the packages.

The feature of the Hcarns murdertrlal today was the collapse of Mrs. Hearne , who , unable to longer maintain the remarkable self-ccntrol which she had shown thro'ughout the trial , covered her face and sabbcd hysterically. The first Indication ot Mrs. Hearne's breakdown came as Witness John Stlllwell , nephew of the murdered man , was picturing to the Jury the ghastly wound In his uncle's head , and the climax was reached when the witness said Dr. Hearne had told him that the mur der could be explained In two w.ays "It was el'her ' donr > by a burglar , " Dr. H'arne had said , "or Mrs. Stlllwell knows all about It.

A story sensational In the extreme , yet with an origin that throws dfscredlt upon it , gained some circulation here.today.

NEW YORK , Dec. 1C. Tonight about 15,000 tailors In this city , Brooklyn and Jcryey City are locked out. There arc 195 shops In the Emplavcrs' association , and of this number eighty-three have posted the new card and the rest are expected to fol low within a tew dajs. Twenty thousand workmen may bo Involved , for that Is the number controlled by the Brotherhood of Tallcrs In the three cities named. The vary ing stories of the two opposing factions relate - late both to the cause and meaning of the stand made by the contractors. The strikers Insist that the move of the contractors Is an attempt to return to the old task system. This , they claim , means that the contractor bcccm"s virtually the Judge as , to what con stitutes a day's work , lie gives an em I ploye , for example , ten garments to do per j day , and he has to do them in order to get I | credit for a day's work , regardless ut the time It may take him. The contract which the employers signed last summer provided , that tlis hands should work ten hours a day ; that they should have their own chairman | who really acted chlelly as a time keeper In each shop , and that n delegate of the union should have the privilege of examining Into the condition of each shop each month , he being allowed fifteen minutes for the work. For the faithful compliance with these conditions , the contiactors gave bonds In the bum of $100 for each machine. The sudden action of the bosses in locking out their employes Is said by the latter to be utterly unwarran'ed , and , In fact , a great surprise to them. They have kept to the agreement strictly , they tay , and only dcslro new to be given an opportunity to continue to do so The contractors admit the signing of the agreement , but say It was a one-sided ] of It. Others try to make the point that , they have first broken the agreement be cause It piovides that In case of rush times the union shall see that each > hop gets all the extra men required. This , they assort , I the brotherhood has not done. . Benjabln Wllkosky , the secretary of the I Employers' organization , Insists , however , that the agreement has nothing to do with the case. "It simply me-uis , " he said , "that we are going to run our own shops. Under the present system we cannot dl&charge an Incompetent man without having the union down on us , and we have resolved to put an end to that sort ot thing. " Mr. Wllkosky denied that there was any Intention to return | to the task system or that there was any lockout even. "We simply put our rules up In our shops. Those who want to work undei them may. " The new rules , so-called , are printed with both English and Hebrew version on each card. Ths conditions they propose are these literally : Tills shop Is open for such "mploves that will suit our work. No shop chairman 01 walking1 delegate admitted here. Workins hours nro from 7 to 12 and from 1 to 6 p. m daily. All employes. mu--t be nt theli ro utes lat shnll not work before a quarter of n day. All hands hliort bv the day only. Payment made each Monday. The pro prietor Is the only bo s of this shop , nml the management of it Is undei his control only. Both the employes and the employers held meetings this afternoon.

PHILADELPHIA , Dec. 1C Every street car line in the ci y Is to be tied up by a utrike that will be inaugurated at 4 o'clock tomorrow morning' . The conductors and motormen - tormen are waging war for better wages , bhorler hours and the privilege of belonging to the Amalgamated Association ot Street Railway Employes. Following the recent consolidation of all the city lines Into one company the Union Traction there were numerous discharges from the company's service of men belonging to the Amal gamated association. Since that time com mittees of the union have repeatedly asked for conferences wllh the officials of the com pany , but all their overtures have been re jected by President Welsh. The beginning of the crisis came last vveek , when F. D. Mahon , president of the national organization , came here and took charge of the affairs of the union. The re sult was an ultimatum sent by the union thlo morning to President Welsh , Mr. Welsh Informed the bearer of the message that there would be no answer , and that no per son connected with any labor organization would be recognized. Then a number of subcommittees were appointed by the offi cers of the union , and foi several hours today those committees were out on the various lines ascertaining the sentiment nf ths com pany's employes. Their report was tlitt the motormen and conductors were almost unan imously In favor of a strike. Tonight the employes of the company held a big meeting at Harmonic- hall , and tlieie the strike wa3 formally ordered. .H was agreed to take out no cars tomorrow morning. A delegation of cltbens headed , by ex-Gov ernor Pattlson , appeared at the hall and asked for a privateconfeitnce. . They wcio admitted , and , It Is reported , urged the men not to preclpltatei a strike. Though they were respectfully listened to , their warnings did not seem to cool t'i ? enthusiasm of the men , who weio bent upon a trial of strength with the big corpoiatlon. Before the meeting adjourned , at a late hour tonight , Preiident Mahon delivered a long address to the men , warning them against all acts of violence , and particularly to Keep away fiom the mm shops. At a later hour tcnght the union's executive committee Issued a proclamation to the people of Phila delphia , setting forth ttielr grlevancse. The demand that ton consecutive houis shall constitute a day'u work , with not leas than thirty inlimtfH for meals , and that $2 shall be the wages for a day's labor , In ad dition they demand recognition of the union and tlii' adjustment of several minor griev ances. President Mahon stated tonight that the union members number close to 4COO men and tli at with the others over 0,000 , men will stop work at the appointed hour. KH'iiT AMI I\PIIUSS COMinn.

When the matter was put to n vote , Cincinnati and Nashville were the only contestants The Ohio city won on n vote of 1,700 to 3S1. Prevalent McBrldo occupied the chair at today's session of the "convention. Secret.vy Barnes of the law committee made a leport on the following r solution by 110 had mul restaurant employes' national alliance : "No union shall be recognized as a bona fide union which Is not alllllated with the national or International body of Its trade , If thcie bo one , with the American Federation of Labor. "No union aniMating with the American Federation of Libor bhall Jie permitted to alllllato with any central labor body In which no alllllated unions a * described above are rtpresented. " This leport brought on an argument Dele gate Pomcroy objected to the phraseology of the first section and wanted Inserted , "pro- jvlded there be one connected with the American Federation of Labor. " Delegate Lennou wanted the second section stiuck out entirely. I After a general discussion Delegate 1'omo- j roy's amendment was carried. A motion to adopt the report was defeated. The committee reported adversely on a resolution presented by the Bakers Intel na tional union to remove the headquarters of the federation to Chicago. Delegate Pomeroy said the resolution was an attempt to remove the hcadqiiartcis to New York. He was In favor of the head quarters remaining where they now are , at Indianapolis. DalogaU Wolssmin , who pre sented the resolution , slid he was In favor of the offices remaining In Indianapolis and the report vvns votol down , A resolution that "No certificate of afillla- tlon be hereaft = r granted by n federal la bor union In whole or In part composed of members of existing trades unions" was In troduced. Iho federal labor unions are composed of both men and women and Samuel Gompcrs , president-elect , objected to the phrase "or In part , " because It might strike at the women wags cainero who form with men to help organi/ed labor. After a heated discus sion Delegate Pomeroy olTcr.d the following resolution as a substitute j unions shall be chartered in any one city , and no federal labor union shall be iccog- nlzed as a'llllatcil If Its membership consists of a majority of active trade unlonls s " The resolution wab adopted. The naming of the placs for the holding of the next con vention was set down for a sp clal older at 3 o'clock. MACHINISTS CHARTER REVOKED.

The i evolution making the appicpriatlon was adopted. Delegate O'Connell , third vice piesldent- elcct , spoke vigorously against dual organiza tions and spoke against the International Ma chinists im'on He represents the Interna tional Association of Machinists with over ISO lodges. Mr. O'Connell desires the Fed eration to withdraw the charter of the dual oiganl/atlon. The International association does not want anytli'iig but machinists , of whom there are 25,000 , while the oilier or ganization takes In all klnd of workmen In Mm inanhhilfit'H trnilp. Mr. Pahle of the International Machinists unlcn had made the statement that his or ganization would withdraw from the Feder ation and afill ate with the socialist organiza tion. tion.Mr. Mr. O'Connell said he would double the numbers of his orginba'ion if the charter of the other association was withdrawn. Delegate Barney spol.o agaiiibt the wlth- diawal cf the charter. President McBride ppoke In f.noi of the International Mach'nlsts union. He said the other body had a membership of 8,800 , wh'lo the one he favored had only 500 , but It was the original organization and he believed the other should affiliate with It. The new or ganization had compelled the other one to withdraw the color line. "In my op nlon , " said the president , "the International Association of Machinists should cease to exist and should affiliate with the machinists union and this body fiom now on. " After much argument on the question of the machinist's ) trades and troubles , the mat ter was finally settled by agreeing to revoke the charter of the International Machinists union.
