The condi tion of the maintenance funds of the va rious state institutions at the beginning of winter, after running seven months on the new appropriations. Indicates that unless the heads of the Institutions do some re trenching there will be a great big deficit at the end of the blennium. In all but a few of the Institutions the superintendents have exceeded the allowance for this period. In some Instances at the present rate the deficit will be large. The biggest deficits will be at tha Lin coln asylum, the two soldiers' homes, the penitentiary and the state public schools. The heads of the Institutions have carried their charges through only the summer months, so It is probable the deficit at the end of the winter months will be much larger than now, as the expenses will be much heavier. The following table shows the appropriations for tha maintenance of the Institutions and the total amount spent out of that fund for the last seven months: Appropriation Spent In Institution. tiiennlum. 7 Montns.
