Mr. Everett dodared yesterday under tee "accrual basis" which he still favora, but which other state of ficials have apparently abandoned he estimates the deficit at about $8,000, 000, and in no event more than $3, 500,000. v _ # v <r/; He also declared that if a new start is made as of January 1, and a deficit of about $0,000,000 amortized, which Governor McLean- is expected to red7 ommend, teat the result will be to charge Governor Morrison's adminis tration with four years' expenses and credit it with revenues fonocly four years, while Governor McLean's ad ministration will get credit for Jkrar years 6f revenue, with expenses7 for only three years and a half charged against it.

Raleigh, Jan. 29.?No repeal of Qgl taxtion of foreign stocks is provided for in the'tentative revenue bill now |a the hands of the two finance com mittees of the house and senate. The house committee has two bills before it for repeal of the measure, ope by King and the other by Lr.cas. No ac tion has yet been taken on them. The tentative bill does not provide for any sales tax, but it does make increases m income, inheritance, fran^j chise and license taxes. The "increas es in these are expected to net about two and a quarter million dollars ad ditional revenue. This is still more than a million short of the amount es timated as being necessary to provide against further increases of. the defi cit and to take care of the accumu latecf dencit. * -vv rl Copies of the bill are being printed for the information' of members of the legislature, but it was stated last night that it was not likely that they would be distributed today. ?
