only $63,000. Hence it becomes apparent that our revenues

DISBURSEMENTS.
A careful perusal of Statement "B" ,is respectfully invited
because therein is shown, in detail all the payments by the State,
exclusive of the Funds account, and the Acts of Assembly
authorizing the same, together with the amounts so paid, aggre-
gating $8,110,083.97, or the largest sum of money ever handled
in the Treasury and yet leaving a cash balance on hand at the
close of the fiscal year of $l,471,520.64. These Unprecedented
payments were made by reason of, and on account of large bond
issues for State Roads, Hospitals and the return of three-
fourths of the revenues from High Liquor Licenses to Balti-
more City. Against this large cash balance, : however, .of
$1.471,520.64, there must be charged certain definite and
specific accounts, and I desire to submit herewith a statement
