A BUDGET DEFICIT.
A WARNING TO TRAITORS
C|nitei> Press Association —Copyright CALCUTTA* August 8.
; Tlie Indian Budget , shows a deficit of £3,750,000 instead as’expected of a surplus of £500,000. The/ deficit is chiefly due to lower receipts from the railways, caused by heavier working expenses. The Master of Elibank warned Indian agitators of the Government’s deliberate intention to- maintain order/ and to remove them, if- necessary, from their sphere of activity. The Anglo-Indian newspapers strongly commend the-Master of Elibank’s-de-clarations and firmness. i Extremists endeavored to introduce a-seditious propaganda into the native States. The Maharaja of Gwalior determined to crush the movement at the outset. Thirty-five agitators were arrested and tried. Four were sentenced to seven years’ imprisonment, and 28 t-o shorter terms of imprisonment. ; [The estimated railway revenue was: £12,929,000. The actual receipts on previous, years were: 1905-6 £12,907,000, 1906-7 £12,984,000, so that a considerable allowance'was made in the estimate.] [The Hon. W. C. 0. Murray, Master of Elibank] ids U ndor-Secrctary for India.] ] .!■■■■;■] )
