With reference to my earlier telegram, the curtailment, postponement and cessation of military and other enterprises amount altogether to. a sum 200,000,000. This includes a saving of about Y, 80,000, 000 on public bonds, which were a part of the policy for the maintenance of the Government enterprises, but are now abandoned; except for railway works, which are to be put ona separate account. Even the railway bonds will not be issued for three or four years.
