The estimated cash balance available June 30, 1833 is placed at $120,902,377, which includes $10,000,000 for the gold re serve fund.

For the next fiscal year ending Jnne 30, 1894, the Secretary estimates that tbe revenues from all sources will be and tbe estimated expenditures (which, however, do not appear to include miscellanoons and extraordinary expenditures) $157,261,335 and the estimated surplus To this-the Secretary adds $20,992,337 cash balance above tb gold reserve estimate! available June 30. 1893. making the estimated available balance June 30, 1894, $53,852. 407, from which must be deducted $5,000,000 for the redemption of past do bonds, fractional currency and National Bank notes, and $1,000,000 for tb probable psyments on mail subsid iary contracts, leaving a net balance of (47.852,407. It is estimated that $40,000,000 on contracts will payab in 1894, which would bring the real working balance down to $7,352,407.

The expenditures on account of pensions is estimated in this statement for the next year at about $166,351,350, or an increase over the amount which it is estimated will be spent for pensions this fiscal yea of only $5,496,350. The Secretary's statement for 1894 shows $40,279,038 contract liabilities to be deducted from the $47,852,407 of the balance above tbe gold reserve, estimated as available cah, but does not show clearly whether tbe $25,259,358 of contracts to be paid in 1893 has or bas not been deducted in the amount estimated above the gold reserve fund, of $20,992,377, as the estimated cash balance available June 30, 1893, though it is presumed it was deducted in figuring the balance. Very little is allowed to the sinking fund in these estimates, and tbe supplemental statement places the estimated balance due the fund June 30, 1801, at $95,901,687. FILIBUSTERING.
