CAREWORN CARLISLE.
Great Anxiety of the Treasury Officials. The present depleted condition of the Treasury and the'discouraging outlook for thq future are a source of considerable anxiety to the officials of the Treasury Department. Already th-e,gat<l,rqaPty,e.. which had been brought up by the last bond issuo to 8103.350,845; has been reduced byexportations since March 10 to less than 880.003,000, with no indication that the foreign demand will cease until it has reached a much lower point. With the exception of the gold reserve, and counting every available dollar in the vaults of the Treasury, the Government to-day has less than 880,000,100 with which to meet obligations. Nor does the future show any signs of encouragement. On the contrary, the. probable deficit of 86,090,603 for the month of May is likely to be increased by 815,0 0,000 during the two succeeding months.- The closest calculation that can .nowdSo made shows that the deficit for the fiscal year ending June 30 will be approximately 874,500.000.
