MONTHLY REPORT OF POSTOFFICE IS GOOD The report of the receipts and ex- i penditures of the Richmond postof-' fice for the month of February has been completed by finance clerk Otto Sprong. The sales amounted to $5,933.17, of which $2,720.05 was sent to the sub-treasury at Cincinnati. The office clerk's hire for the month was $825.; $1,074.99 was paid out to the railway mail clerks on the C, C. & L., G. R. & I. and Richmond and Xenia., division of the Pennsylvania, and the three transfer clerks at the local Pennsylvania station. The letter carriers received $1,012.45, while the money paid out for special delivery messages and the substitutes amounted to $42.35. The report is one of the best that has been issued from the local postoffice for several months, and it is expected that long before the present month expires the amount for the fiscal year's business will have passed the coveted $60,000 mark, the goal set by Postmaster Spekenhier and his assistant. If such is the case the postmaster and his assistant' will receive quite a neat increase In their j salaries. According to the statements at the postoffice yesterday there is no doubt but what the Richmond busi ness will pass that mark this month. The fiscal year ends March 31. Government Finances. Washington, March 2 The monthly statement of the public debt, just issued, shows that at the close of business, Feb. 2S, 1907, the debt, less cash in the treasury, amounted to $920,644.S54, which is a decrease " of $6,797, S52, as compared with Feb. 1. This decrease is accounted for by the increase in the amount of cash on hand. I The debt Is recapitulated as follows: Interest bearing debt ...$ 920,099,130 Debt on which Interest has ceased since maturity 1,095,693 Debt bearing no interest.. 399,604,302 Total $1,320,799,50S This amount, however, does not in elude $1,124,460,869 in certificates and treasury notes outstanding which are offset by an equal amount of cash on hand which is held for their redenm tion. The cash in the treasury is classified as follows: Gold reserve $ 150.000.00r Trust funds l,124,460,S6f General funds 207,114.S2C National bank depositories 150.4S6.23 In Philippine treasury .. 3,422,551 Total $l,633,4S4.4Sr Against which there are demand lia bilitles outstanding amounting tr $1,235,329,830. which leaves a cash bal ance on hand of $400,154,654.
