A Sound Measure Adjusted to the Inter ests of the Country. VIEWS EPOS TIIE SUKPLUS EEYEKUES "WaShixgtok', Dec 2. The annual re port of Secretary of the Treasury 'Windom, for the fiscal year 1890, was presented to Congress to-day. The Secretary starts oil abruptly by statins that the receipts of the Government for the year were $4G3,9C3, 080 55, while the expenditures for the same period were S35S,618,5S1 G2. The Secretary then continues: The revenues apd expenditures of the postal service form no part of the fiscal operations controlled by the Treasury Department, al though under a requirement ol Congress they are included in the figures given. Eliminating the postal receipts and expenditures, the sur plus amounts to 105,544,499 03. Of this amount there was used in the redemption of notes and fractional currency, and purchase of bonds for the sinking fund, the sum of f4b.094.561 66. leav. lug a net surplus lor the year of 557.249,931 37. As compared with the year IMS the increase in receipts amounted to S16.O30.923 79, and the Increase in expenditures to 15.739,871. In addition to SIS.005,561 OS applied to the sinking fund dunug the licat rear 1S9Q, the net Eurplusrfor the year, viz., SJ7.219.931 37. together with S5.870 received for 4 per cent bonds issued for interest accrued on lefundmg certificates converted during the j-ear, and 19,601,877 53 taken from the cash balance in the Treasury at the beginning of the year, making altogether 76,857.67:: 90, was used in the redemption and purchase of tho debt. ESTIMATED BEVEXUXS. The Secretary estimates the revenues for the nscal year ot 1E91 at 5406,000.000 and the expenditures at 5354,000,000, leaving an estimated surplus bf 552,000,000. In his table he has estimated his customs reEeints for 1S91 at 5221,000,000, as against S229.C6S. 5S4 57 lor the jear covered by his report. In 1S92 he estimates that the revenues will not exceed 5373,000,000, and that in round num bers 5357,000,000 will pay the bills, exclu sive of the sinking fund. In closing the general balance sheet ac count, with which he ttarts his report, the Secretary says : In estimating the revenue for the next fiscal j ear the loss from articles transferred to the free list is placed at S50.UCO.000, but as the in creasing demands of the people must swell the volume of imports in other commodities, and the enforcement of the customs laws under the operations of the administrative act of June 10, 1890, by the prevention of undervaluations and the closer collection of duties will materially increase the revenue, it is estimated that an additional collection of not less than SIS, 000, 000 will be obtaiued under these conditions. Upon this basis the net loss of revenue for the year is put down at 32,000,000. The report then takes up the subject of pensions, in which he says : Tho estimate of H35,263,GS5 made by the In terior Department for the ear 1892 is based upon the fact that over 250,000 of the claimants lor pensions under old laws have availed them selves of the right to present their claims un der the act of June 17, 1S90. TAEIFF LEGISLATION. In regard to the new tariff the Secretary says: The purpose of the tariff act of October I last was to affect needed reduction of revenue, and such an adjustment of duties as would ade quately foster and encourage home industries while maintaining the standard nf American wages. This end, it is believed, has been ac complished. Jlore articles than ever before have been placed on the free list, rates have been reduced on many others, and increased dntles have been imposed when deemed neces sary to the adequate protection of our agricul tural and manufacturing intei ests. The area of population, the accumulated wealth and characteristic resources of the United States lender it certain, that for many years to come, the borne market ill be a better one for our own products than all others com bined. This very superiority of the United States as a market is an inducement to foreign producers evervwbere to seek access to and control of it. To permit our own producers to be driven out by foreign competition would be to expel tbem from their best and most natur al market, and compel them to seek inferior competitive markets elsewhere. Free trade can never be successfully established or per petuated in any country whoso home market tor its own products exceeds its aggregate markets abroad. The provisions for the advancement of recip rocal trade with other countries, as contem plated by the law, aie not hostile to the princi ple ot protection, but are believed to be in harmony with it. The law has been too short a time in operation to warrant discussion herein of its many details. It is believed that the measure Is sound in principle, and that its several classifications, rates, and other provis ions nave been adjusted upon a comprehensive view of the vast interests of the whole country. EUBrLTJS EETEXUES. Considerable space is devoted to surplus revenuts, which the report says were largely increased last summer by pending changes in tariff legislation. The available balance in the Treasury, says the report, was also ereatly augmented by the act of July 11, 1890. which transferred over $51, OU0,u00 from the bank-note redemption fund to the available cash. This sudden and abnormal increase was the cause of much concern and some embarrassment to the department. To prevent an undue accumulation of money in the Treasury, and consequent commercial stringency, only two methods were open to the Secretary, namely, to deposit the public money in national banks, and to continue the purchase of United States bonds on such terms as they could be obtained. The former method was deemed unwise and inexpedient, aud the policy of bond purchases was continued. On account of the rapidly-diminishing supoly of the United States bonds on the market," and of the fact that the sudden and great increase in tbe sur plus compelled tbe immediate purchase of large quantities, it became very difficult to ob tain them in sufficient amounts and at fair prices. The report then sums np in detail the pur chases of bonds during this period. The amount of public money set free within 75 days by these disbursements was about 57(5,000,000, making a net gain to the circu lation of the country of about $45,000,000. MORE ELASTICITY SEEDED. In speaking of the responsibilities of the surplus, Secretary "Windom makes this ob servation: There are many grave objections to tho ac cumulation of a large surplus in the Treasury, and especially to tho power which the control of such surplus gives to the Secretary. I am sure those objections appeal to no one with so much force as to the beau of the department, upon whom rests the difficult and delicate re sponsibility of its administration. In my judgment, the gravest defect in our present financial system is its lack of elasticity. Tbe national banking-system supplied this de fect to some extent by the authority which the banks have to increase their circulation in times of stiingency, and to reduce when money becomes redundant: but, by reason of the high price of bonds, this authority has ceased to be of much practical value. Tbe Secretary disputes the charge often made that the Treasury controls the finances of the country, concluding his argument as follows: The more recent financial stringency in No vember, immediately after the disbursement of over 100,000.000 for tbe purchase and redemp tion of bonds within the preceding four months, furnishes another forcible illustration that such stringencies are due to other causes than Treasury operations. THE SILVEE SURPLUS. llegarding the silver question the Secre tary says: The present surplus stock of silver may, at pny time, be augmented by imports or dimin ished by exports, and, as the current product bf silver from our mines does not differ very widely from tbe monthly purchases by the Government, it Is. probable that the existing surplus will remain for some time an impedi ment to the permanent and steady auvance ot silver. Even if the piescnt surplus should bo puichased by the Government, importations from abroad might, at any time, accumulate an additional stock of silver, tne manipula tions of which by speculators would result in wide fluctuations in price. Had tbe law pro vided for tho purchase of only the product of the United States, this surplus would have been absorbed ere this, and as none would have been imported for speculative purposes no sur plus would have been accumulated. The with drawal of the entire silver products of our initio and smelters, wmcb amounts to nearly oue-half the world's annual output of silver, would probably soon create a shortage abroad, and this in turn would cause a steady and per manent advance In price. She Secretary then goes on to review the work of the various bureaus that are under the jurisdiction ot his department. Tbe re port of the Commissioner of Internal Kevenue shows that tbe total production of distilled spirits for the year was 111,101,739 gallons, an increase of abont 19,000,000 gal lons. The beer produced amounted to 27,561,944 barrels. From cigarettes, cigars, snuff and tobacco the Government received a revenue of 533,958,991 06. The total esti mated reduction in the receipts from cigars, tobacco, etc., for the fiscal year of '91 is 53,898,382 72. He estimates the total re daction in the internal revenues for the coming year at 51,318,382 72. No estimate is made as to the amount the sngar bounty will require for the first year, and the rec ommendation is made that the disbursements be made through the Department of Agri culture. GROWING DISCONTENT AMONG THE ACTIVE. PRODUCERS OF PETROLEUM. An Independent Movement of No Small Proportions Now Seems Certain The Latest Intelligence From the Various Important Field Centers. The spirit of discontent and rebellion among producers against the Standard monopoly is becoming more manifest as each day rolls around. The infection is also spreading into the ranks of manu facturers pertaining to the industry and the army of contractors, while tbe murmur of the driller and the tool dresser are not less conspicuous. The sanation was earnestly discussed to-day by many indignaut pro ducers, and the consensus of opinion points to an independent movement of no small proportions. The Dispatch scout, in his perambulations among the fraternity en countered groups of operators in nearly every office visited, te viewing the history of the trade, the , present condition of affairs, and the best means to cope with their formidable adversary. One prominent producer of more than ordinary business quali fications, and who has always been noted for his conservative methods and ways, said to The Dispatch that the independent producers would certainlv soon do something to protect their interests.' Tho price the Standard is pay ing us for our oil is simply outrageous and we don't propose to submit to it any longer with out making an effort, at least, to help ourselves. When the market reached $1 13, which was the highest point attained during the year, refined sold in Now York at 7 40-100. while with the crude market at 67, tho New York refined markets wcro 730-100. Now look at It for yourself. While the crude market has declined i. refined has only dropped one-tenth of a cent. I ask is it any wonder that the Standard can coin money, pay big prices for territory and production when tne money is taken from the pockets of the producer! I wonder if their conscience will ever trouble them to that degree when they will declare a dividend, and give us back a part at least of what they have wrongfully taken from us. We are now taking steps to call a meeting of tho P. A., which is yet intact, and by putting our heads together we may be able to devise some means to help ourselves. I tell you this standing on the street corner and d gtbe Standard and talking about local independant pipe lines and refineries will never win. At this juncture of the interview, a prominent machinery man chimed inland re marked, "that from the very fact that a gen eral meeting of the old P. A. A. was being called ,-on would seelthe market get a move n to the tune of 5 or 10 cents." Resuming tbe iutervewhe said: "After almost giviug up oar life's blood in the shut down, we made a great mistake in not keeping it up. The lessons of experience should have taught us that it was highly necessary for ns to be thoroughly and systematically organized at all times. Were we organized to-day as a body and governed by tbe same systematized principles which character ize the Standard, we would be masters of the situation, and when worst comes to worst we could dictate terms, But it is not too late for us to go in and win yet through the P. P. A. We have tbe harness on. and all wc have to do is hitch tbe traces and go ahead. There is plenty of money in the treasury to start with, besides there are a number of level-headed gentlemen I know of, who the Standard are counting on, will throw their whole soul into the movement." Field News Barnsdall fc Co.'s No. 1 Kress is reported to-night as doing 4S inches or 120 barrels an hour. The Governor Pattison is making about 25 inches and No. 2 Pattison is doing 13 inches an hour. The Smith Farm Oil Company is still fishing for the tolls in No, 4. while No. 5 Smith is still drilling in the sand and making occasional flows. Galley Bros, well which came in yesterday on the McKeow farm, located between Mellon's Cassiday No. 1 and the Orion Oil Company's No. 2 on the Logan farm, is producing 150 barrels a day. Tbe Augusta Oil Company's representative, who was sent to investigate their Jackson countv. West Virginia, well, which was re ported as having found oil, has returned and said to The Dispatch that they found a little oil in the salt sand, but on deeper drilling got a big dose of salt water and that they are now drilling for the Big Injun.
