SHOWS A SURPLUS
Government Receipts for 1914
$33,000,000 More Than
Expen'ditures.
SECRETARY M'ADOO ELATED
Points Proudly to Total Figure at
Proof of Administration Promise
for Tariff Law.
-. " s -. '
Washington. Treasury figures just
completed showed that the federal
government went through its first
fiscal year under the Wilson adminis
tration with Its income exceeding or
dinary expenses by $33,784,452.07.
Nearly 33 million dollars, pouring
into the treasury the last day,
brought the total receipts for the
year up to $734,343,700. This Is 20Vi
million above Secretary McAdoo's
original estimate, and turned Into a
surplus what had promised the day
before to be a substantial deficit.
Corporation and Income tax pay
ments furnished the stream of gold
at the finish. From this source came
$26,161,782.82 between the opening
and closing of the treasury the last
day. Secretary McAdoo and other ad'
ministration officials are pointing
proudly to the total figures as proof
of their promises as to what would
be accomplished under the new tariff.
- Surplus Goe to the Canal,
The treasury surplus this year, as
last will be wiped out by Panama
canal expenditures, which have been
paid from the general fund, in the
twelve months $34,826,941 have been
spent ' on the canal. When tljls has
been charged off there will be a defi
cit for the year of $1,010,058.81 on
the books. Last year the canal expen
diture amounted to- $41,741,258 and
the final deficit wa $400,733.
Last year's total receipts were only
$691,140,000, but on the other hand
the ordinary expenditures were only
$654,805,000, or $45,754248 below this
year's total. Secretary McAdoo esti
mates that approximately 3 million
dollars in scheduled Income and cor
poration taxes, assessments not paid
in June because the penalty does not
accrue against these assessments un
til July 10, would have been a clear
surplus for the year of approximately
2 million dollars.

SHOOTS AT DOCTOR CARMAN
Man on Bicycle Attempts to Assas
sinate Free port Physician While
Making Professional Call.
Freeport, N. Y. Dr. Carman, In
whose office Mrs. Louise Bailey was
murdered recently, was shot at three
times as he drove his automobile
through the town of Baldwin, near
here. None of the bullets struck him.
The doctor was on his way home from
Rockvllle Center, where he had been
to attend a patient.
Dr. Carman told the police the story
of the attack upon him. He had been
out making professional calls all after
noon and ' passed through Rockvllle
Center on his way home. There he
met Garland Gadeh, an actor, and in
vited him to ride home with him.
"Gaden accepted my invitation,"
said Dr. Carman, "and got Into the
car. We stopped in a store and as
we again got into the car, a small
coupe, I noticed a man on a blcyote
near he curb. We drove off" without
paying any particular attention to the
man. - "

tor car opened fire when well outside

ULSTER IS READY TO FIGHT
Unionist Volunteer In Uniform Pa
rade Streets of Belfast With Rifle
and Fixed Bayonet.
Belfast. Ulster- Volunteers, with
rifles and fixed bayonets, paraded the
streets here in full uniform, under in
structions from Lieut. Gen. Sir George
Richardson, their commander-in-chief,
as notice to the authorities, it was
said, that "Ulster will fight."
Apprehension - ia great that the
Unionists cannot be restrained from
carrying out the plan without forcible
measures and, as there are 30,000
armed volunteers in the city, this may
result in serious trouble.
Police and regular soldiers here are
weaker numerically than the volun
teera and would be powerless to quell
any concerted display of arms unless
aided by the Nationalists. In ' such
a, case bloody fighting would almost
surely be precipitated at once.
It ia believed the order is part of a
Unionist plan to show the movement's
strength In Belfast and that unless
means are found to prevent the dis
play the streets will be full of martial
figures within the week.
