the reduction of taxes and govern
ment exponses. Tho budgot for
the year 1899 has been approved
by Qenoral Honry. This covers
tho expenses of what is called the
"insular govemmout." The fol
lowing Bums which would have
been included in tho budgot of tbo
Spanish Government for this year
have beon stricken out:
Gonoral obligations, $498 5 1;
clorgy, S197.915; war, $1,252,377;
mariuo, $222,GG8.
The total of tho obligations that
ceased to oxist and which aro dc
aided from the amount of the
budget is $2,172,492.
Tho difference that hae beon ex
pended without tbo realizod econo

The calculated budget for 1899
is formed of tho following items:
General obligations, 819,580;
statQ obligations, 8301,955; justice
department, $109,010; intorior do
partmont, 87GG.039.
Tho customs for tho coming

will remain therefore an excess of
S1.170.G13.
It should be understood that tho
abovo ficures for tho estimated
budgot for tho year embrace only
the uecessary expenses for the
payment of salaries and othor
iixee charges. If this amount
cauunt bo paid from the
proceeds of tho customs, then it
must be raised by other mothods
of taxation.
General Henry haB askod of
Washington tbo right to npply
the customs receipts to the ex
ponsos of the Government. If
this should be permitted all Gov
ernment expenses could bo paid
aud many improvements carriod
on.
At tho present time there are
many taxos colloctod that are a
groat hindrance to commerce and
if tbo customs receipts could bo
used these might bo dono away
with. Merchants in doing business
in Porto Rico pay almost a prohi
bitive tax. .
No one can engago in tho bank
ing or importing business without
paying to the Govornmont a tax
of about 2500 pesos por annum.
Then tbero are consumption
taxos imposed upon evory article
imported for consumption. Theso
should all bo dono away with as
thoy hindor trade, and prevent the
trade from America entering hero.
