I have failed to see that the insurgents can reasonably claim recog nition as belligerents. Thus far the jKisition of our government has ln-en that tif an attentive but impartial observer of the unfortunate conflict. Em phasizing our fixetl policy of impartial neu trality in such a condition of affairs as now exists, I deemed it necessary to disavow, in ja manner not to be misunderstood, the un authorized action of our late naval com mander in those waters in saluting the re . vol ted Jbaziliau admiral, Ix-int; indisposed to countenance an act calculated to give gratuitous sanction to the local insurrec tion. j The convention between our government and Chili having for its object the settle ment and adjustment of the demands of ;the two countries against each other, has been made effective by the organization of 'the claims commission provided for. The two governments failing to agree upon the third member tif the commission, the good 'offices of the president of the Swiss repub lic were invoked, as provided in the treaty, and the selection of the Swiss representa tive in this country to complete the organ ization was gratifying alike to the United States aud Chili. The Ciearv I.iiw. The legislation of last year known as the Geary law met. with much opposition from .Chinamen in this country. Acting upon the advice of eminent counsel that the law was unconstitutional, the great mass of Chinese laborers, pending judicial inquiry as to its validity, in Ltnod faith declined to apply for the-certificates required by its provisions. A test case upon proceeding by habeas corpus was brought, lx'fore the supreme court, and on .May 15, is;i;t, a de cision was made by that tribunal sustain ing the law. i It is believed that under the recent amend ment of the act extending the time for reg istration the Chinese laborers thereto en titled who desire to reside in this country will now avail themselves of the renewed .privilege thus affoidcd tif establishing by lawful procedure their right to remain, and that thereby the necessity of enforced de portation may to a great degree lie avoided. The Nicaragua C anal. Nicaragua has recently passed through two revolutions, the patty at first success ful having in turn been displaied by an other. Our newly appointed minister, by his timely good offices, aided in a peaceful adjustment of the controversy involved in the first conflict. The large American in terests established in that country in con nection with the Nicaragua canal were not molested. The canal company has unfortunately become financially seriously embarrassed, but a generous treatment has been extend ed to it by the government of Nicaragua. The United States are especially interested in the successful achievement of the vast undertaking this company has in charge. That it should be accomplished under dis tinctively American auspices, and its en joyment assured not only to the vessels of this country as a channel of communica tion between our Atlantic and Pacific sea boards, Lut to the ships of the world in the interests of civilization, is a proposition which, in my judgment, docs not admit of question ' Guatemala has also been visited by tho political vicissitudes which have afflicted her Central American reighbors, but the dissolution of its legislature and the proc lamation of a dictatorship have been un attended with civil war. An extradition treaty with Norway has recently been exchanged and proclaimed. ' Tbeextradit ion treaty with Jtussia, signed in'March,lS?, and amended and couflrmed by the Semite in February last, was duly proclaimed last June. Tlie Hawaiian Matter. It is hardly necessary forme to state that the questions arising from pur rations with : Hawaii imve caused serious embar rassment.' Just prior to the installation of the present administration the existing government of Hawaii had been suddenly overthrown, and a treaty of annexation had been negotiated between the provision. k governpieiit of the islands and the Unit ed State and submitted to the senate for ratification. This treaty I withdrew for examination and dispatched lion. James jl. Blount of Georgia to Honolulu as a special commissioner to make an imparl t4al investigation of the circuro,sj:anv!t;s at tending the change of government and of all tlie conditions bearing upon the sub ject of the treaty, After a thorough and exhaustive exanir Jpation Mr. Plount submitted tp me hii report, siiowing beyond all question that the constitutional government of Hawaii had been subverted with the active aid of our representative to that government and through the intimidation caused by the presence of an armed naval force of the United States which was landed for thai nuroose at the instance oi our minister. Upon the tacts aeveiopeu it seemeu v-o iuvj the only honorable course for our governr a - , . , .3 i ; ment to pursue was to undo the wrong tnathad been done by those representing US, and to restore as far as practicable the status esisting at the time oi our xorciow intervention With a view of accomplishing this result within the constitutional limits of executive power, and recognizing all our obligations , -i . -. I - . P a-n-a ana responsiuuiues KroJUS ou " Changed conditions brought about by our unjustifiable interference, our present min ister at Honolulu has received appropriate instructions to that end. Thus far no in formation of the accomplishment of any definite results has been received from him. Additional ndvlcns are softn expected. When received fhey will be promptly sent to the consrt'KS, together with all other in formation at hand, accompanied by a special executive message detailing all the facts necessary to a complete understand ing of the case and presenting a msioi j all the material events lending up to the present situation.

The report of the secretary of the navy contains a hi .ry of t Me op -rations of his depart metit diiru t; the pa-1 v ear. and ex hibits a most gratiu lug c md.tion of the personnel of our navy.' During the pa-t six months the demands for cruiin vessels have b.-en many and urgent. There have lieeu rev o! nt ions call ing for ;-s el, to protect American inter ests in Nicaragua, Guatemala, Costa Kica, Honduras, Argentina and lirazil, while the condition of afl' tirs in Honolulu h is re quired the constant p-t-eiiee of one or Inore ship-.

There have been delays in the com pletion of unarmored vessels, but for the most part they have U-en such as are con stantly occurring even in countries having the largest experience in naval shipbuild ing. The most serious delays, however, have been in I he work upon armored ships. The trouble lias been the failure of con tractors to ti. liver armor as agreed. The difficulties seetu now, however, to hava been all overcome, and armor is being de livered with satisfactory promptness. The follow ing vessels are in process of construction: The second class battleships Maine and Texas, the cruisers Montgom ery and Marhlehcad and the coast defense monitors Terror, Puritan, A mphitrite and Alonaduock, all tif which will be completed within one year; the harbor defense ram Katahdin aud the protected cruisers Co lumbia, Minneapolis, Olympia, Cincinnati and Kaleigh, all of which will le complet ed prior to July 1, 18t5; the first class bat tleships Iow a, Indiana, M Hssachusetts and Oregon, which will be completed Feb. lf 1896, and the armored ctuiser Brooklyn, which will be completed by Aug. 1 of that year. It is also expected that the three gunboats authorized by the last congress will be completed in less than two years. Since 1SC congress has at each session authorized the building of one or more vessels, and the secretary tif the navy pre sents an earnest plea for the continuance of this plan. He recommends the author ization of at least one battleship and six torpedo boats. While I am distinctly in favor of con sistently pursuing the policy we have in augurated of building up a thorough aud efficient navy, I cannot refrain from the suggestion t hat the congress should care fully take into account the number of un finished vessels on our hands and the de pleted condition of our treasurv in consid ering the propriety of an appropriation at this time to begin new work. The method of employing mechanical la bor at navy yards through boards of labor and making efficiency the sole test by which laborers are employed and contin ued is producing the best results, and the secrt tai y is earnestly devoting himself to its development. National (Quarantine. The admonitions of the last two years touching our public health and the demon strated danger of the introduction of con tagious diseases from foreign ports has in vested the subject of national quarantine with increased imccst. A more general and harmonious xytem than now exists. acting promptly and directly everywhere, and constantly operating by preventive means to shield our country from the in vasiou of disease, and at the same time having due regard to the rights and duties Of local agencies, would, I believe, add greatly to the safety of our people, Arniv Reeomitieiitlatiou!. The secretary of war reports that the strength of the army on the 30th day of Seritember last was 25, 178 enlisted men anil 2,144 officers. The total enrollment of the militia of the several states was,on the 81st of Octol er of the current year, 112,597 officers and enlisted men The adoption of battalion formations for infantry regiments, the strengthening of the artillery force, the abandonment cf smaller and unnecessary posts and the pissing of the troops at important and ac cessible stations a!l promise to promote the usefulness of the army. In the judg ment of army officers, with but few excep tions, the operat ion of the law forbidding the re-enlistment of men after 10 years' service has not proved its wisdom, and while the arguments that led to its adop tion were not w ithout merit, the experience if the year constrains me to join in the recommendation for its repeal. Seacoast Defense. It is ratifying to note that we have be gun to attain completed results in the com prehensive scheme tif seacoast defense and fortification, entered upon eight years ago, A large mm has been already expended. but the cost of maintenance will be incon siderable as compared with the expense of construction aud ordnance. At the end gJ the current calendar year the war de partment, will have nine 13 inch guns, twenty JO inch and thirty-four 8 inch guns, ready to be mounted on gun lifts and carriages, and seventy-five 13 inch mortars. In addition to the pro duct of the army gun factory, now corr pleted at Watervliet, iQ gMverhmens" Las voatl'ttv-leu Willi privai-e lim ues luriuo pur Chase of 100 guns of these calibers, the firs of which should lie delivered to the depart ment for test before July 1, 1894-. The manufacture of iieavy ordnance keepTpace with current needs, but to rea der these t,n:is available for tho purposef they are design ; t a meet, emplacements must be pr.-pareil. for t hein. Progress has been made ia this direction, and it is de sirable that congress by adequate appro priatitm should provide for the uninter rupted proseC'lUO.i oi luis uecessary wur&. Fed ral Court, The report i f the attorney general con tains the usual summary of the affairs and proceedings of the department of justice for the past year, t gether with certain recouimeudatiis as to needed legislation on various subjects. I cannot too heartily indorse the proposition that the fee sys tern as applicable to the compensation of United States attorneys, marshals, clerks of federal courts and United States com missioners, t-hould be abolished with as little delay as possi bio. It is clearly in the interest of the community that the busi ness of the coiyts, both civil and criminal, Shall be as small and as inexpensively transacted as the ends of justice will allov!?, The systeni i tiertfur6 thoroughly vic ious' wnich makes the compensation of Court officials depend upon the volume of such business, and, thus creates a conflict between a proper execution of the law and private gain, w hicti cannot fail to be dan gerous to the rights and freedom of the citizen and an irresistible temptation to the unjustifiable expenditure of public funds. It in addition to this reform an other was inaugurated which would give to United States commissioners the final disposition of petty offenses within the grade of misdemeanors, especially those vuuiiug uuuer tne internal revenue laws, a I fc wou,d mie toward a . more decent Hdlllillistratiouof thecriminal law.

Tlierefore a larger discrepancy than usual between ti.e po.stofiiee lect-.pts and expenditures ii ti e expected and uiiavoidabie lesiill of the distressing Ktriugeticy which has prevailed throughout the country during much of the time covered by the post master m-n- eral's report. At a date when belter times were anticipated it was estimated by his predeces-or that ihe deficiency on t',e :i'!tij flay tif .Ititie, IKi;!, would iie but a litlie over Jl,ri(i.0)ti. It amounted, however, to more than ?5.nm,(io.i At the Kami- time, anil under tin-influ ence of like anticipations, estimates wi-rc made for the current fiscal vi-ar ending June 80, 1ML, which exhibited a surp'us of revenue over ex pet ditures of .vs;,' -'4,"). 71: but now, in view of the actual receiiits ami expenditures during that part of tlie cur rent fiscal year already expired, t he present postmaster general estimates that at its close instead of a surplus there will be a deficiency of nearly J'S.iKki.imo The postoflice receipts for the fisc il year amounted to 7."i.S'.i;,'.i:. p; and its expendi tures to 81,O74,10t.W. This postoflice de ficiency would disappear or be immensely decreased if less matter was carried free through the mails, an item of which is up ward of 300 tons tif seeds and grain from the agricultural department. Forty-two free delivery offices were add ed during the year to those already exist ing, making a total of 010 cities and towns provided with free delivery on June 30, 1893. Ninety-three ot her cities and towns are now entitled to this service under the law, but it has not been accorded them on account of insufficient funds to meet the expense of its estabii -i; iie'it. I am decidedly of tee .l inion that, the provisions or the pre- ut law permit as general an introduction of ;iiis feature of mail service as is necessary or justifiable. and that it ought not to be extended to smaller communities than are now desig nated. There were 0,401 additions to the domes tic money order offices during the last fis cal year, being t he largest increase in any year since the inauguration of the system. The total number of these offices at the close of the year was lsi.4.''4. During the year VX international money Order ollices were added to those already provided, making a total of 2,407 in opera tion on June .50, ISM. 'I he total issue of money orders and postal notes for the year amounted to .sl"iti.si,34i.-Jt. The number of letters anil packages mailetl during the year for special delivery was 3,373,093, an increase over t he preced- : ing year of nearly Si per cent. Ihe special delivery stamps used amounted to t337,- 509.30, and the messengers' fees amounted to $256,59J.71, leaving a profit to the gov ernment of j80,97i..j9. Kail way Mail S-rvloe. The railway mail service not only adds to the promptness of mail delivery at all offices, but it is the especial instrumental ity which puts the smaller and way places in the service on an equality in that regard with the larger and terminal offices. This branch of the postal service has therefore received much attciiti-m from tlie post master general, and though il is gratifying to know that it is in a cot tli ion of high efficiency and great usefulness i am led to agree with the post master general that there is room for its further improvement. There are now connected with tlie post office establishment s!b,34 employees who are in the class (ied service. The head of this great department gives conclusive ev idence of the value of civil service reform when, after an experience thai renders his judgment on the subject absolutely reli able, he expresses the opinion that wi.hout the benefit of this system it would be im possible to conduct the vast business in trusted to him. I desire to commend as especially worthy of prompt attention the suggestion tif the postmaster general relating toa more sensi ble and busines-like organization and a bet ter distribution of responsibility in his de partment financial i-ntjes tions. The recent repeal tif the provision of law requiring the purchase of silver bullion by the government as a feature of our mon etary scheme has made an entire change in the complexion of our currency affairs. I do not doubt that ihe ultimate result of this action wid he most balutary and far reaching. Jn the uatureuf thlr.gs, how ever, it is Impossible to know at this time precisely what conditions will be brought about by the change, or what, if any, sup plementary legislation may in the ligl.t oi such conditions appear t, be essential or expedient. Of course, after the recent financial per turbation, time is necessary for the re-establishment of business confidence. When, however, through this restored confidence the money which has been frightened into hoarding places is returned to trade and enterprise, a survey of the situation will probably disclose a safe path leading to a permanently sound currency abundantly sufficient to meet every requirement of our increasing population and business. In the pursuit of this object vb should resolutely turq a-rty rxom alluring and temporary expedients, determined to be content with nothing less than a lasting and comprehensive financial plan. Iu these circumstances I am convinced! that a reasonable deljyy ia dealing with this sub ject, instead of being injurious, will in crease the probability of wise action. The monetary ponfiirme which assem bled at Brussels upon our invitation was adjourned to the 30th day of November iu the present year. The considerations just stated and the fact that a definite proposi tion from us seemed to be expected upon the reassembling of the conference led me to express vviilingness to have the meet ing still farther postponed. It seems to me that it would be wise to give general authority to t he president to invite Other nations to such a conference at any time when there should be a fair prospect of accomplishing an international agreement on the subject of coinage. I desire also to earnestly suggest the wis dom of amending the existing statutes in regard to the issuance of government bonds. The authority now vested In the secretary of the treasury to issue bonds is not as clear as it should be, and the bonds authorized are disadvantageous to the gov ernment both as ta the timf. of their ma turity and rate t J intoist. Pensions. The secretary of the interior has the su pervision of so many important subjects that his report is of especial value and in terest. On the 80th day of June, 1893, there were on the pensitm rolls 906,012 names, an in crease of 81,944 over the number on the Tolls June 80, 1893. Of these there were 17 widows . and daughters of Revolutionary soldiers, 86 survivors of the war of 1812, 6,423 widows of soldrers of that war, 1,513 survivors and widows of the Mexican war, 8,882 survivors and widows of Indian wars, 284 army nursei, and 475,045 survivors and widows aud children of deceased soldiers and sailors of the war of the rebellion.

At this time, when a depleted public treasury col fronts us, when many of our people are en uaed in a hard struggle for the necessaries of life, and when enforced economy is pressing upon the great mass of our count ry men, desire to uigo with all the earnestness at my command that congressional legislation lm so limited by j strict economy as to exhibit an apprecia tion of the eontlii ion of the treasury ami a 1 sympathy with the straitened circuiu fctancs of our fellow citireus. The duty of public economy is also of im mense importance in its Hit imate and nec essary relation to tlie ta-k now iu hand of providing revenue to meet government ex Jienditures antl yet reducing the people's burden of federal taxation. Tariff Id form. After a bard struggle tariff reform is di rectly beii re us. Nothing so important claims our at tent ion, and nothing so clear ly presents itself as hot li an 1 ppnrt unity and a duty an opportunity to deserve the gratitude of our lellow cit i.-ns and a duty imposed upon tis by our oft repeated pro fessions antl by t he emphatic manda'e of the people. After full discussion our coun trymen heve spoken iu l.tvor of tl.U re form, and they have . ouli ! -1 th woi k of its accomplishment to t he hands of those who are solemnly pledged to it. If there is anything in the theory of a representation iu public places of the peo ple and t heir desires, if public officers are reaily the servants of t'e people, and if political promises and pni-ssions have any binding force, our failure to give the relief so long awaited will 1m sheer recreancy. Nothing should intervene to distract our attention or disturb our t tlort u til this reform is accomplished by wise aud careful legislation. While we should statu hly adhere to the principle that only t he in ces--ity tif reve nue just Hies t tie imposition of tariff duties aud tit her fetleral taxation, aud that they should lie 1 m iied by strict economy, we cannot cloe our eyes to the fact that condi tions havu grown up aiumm us which in justice aiui fairness call loi discriminating care in thf tlistritiut ion ot such duties and taxation as t he emergencies of our govern ment act ii-ill demand. Jdttnift stiy, if we are lo aid the people directly through tariff reform, one of its mo.-t obvious features should U a reduc tion in present tariff charges upon the nec- . . : . p 11' m i 1 ... essanes 01 inc. 1 ne ocnenrs or sucu a re- rlnetlil linn i u. ,m lul. u .....1 ..1 . . seeu jml leit by thousands who would be better fed and better clothed antl better sheltered. These gifts should be the will ing benefactions of a government whoso highest function is the proinoiiou of the Welfare of the people. Haw Material. Not less closely related to our people's prosperity ami well being is the removal of restrictions upon the importation of the raw materials necessary to our manufac tures. The world should be open to our national ingenuity and enterprise. This cannot be while federal legislation through I the imposition of high tariff forbid to j American manufacturers as cheap mate- rials as those used by their comia-titors. It is quite obvious that the t nh-mcement of i the price of our manufactured products re ; suiting from this policy tint only confines j the market for these products within our i own Imrders. to the direct disadvantage, of our manufac urers, but also increases their cost to our citizens. The interests of labor are certainly, ' though indirectly, involved in this feature of our tariff system. The sharp competi tion and active snuggle anion (j our manu facturers to supply the. limited demand for their goods s .on fill the narrow market towhich t hey eonliiietl. Then follows a mspt-nsioii of work iu mills and factories, a dichaige tif employees and distress in the homes of our workiugmen. Even it tin- often disprov-d assertion COuld ne made go ut thai a lower rate of wages would result from free raw mate rials antl low tariff duties, the intelligence of our workiiigmc i leads them quickly to discover tnai their steady employment, permitted by free raw materials, is the most important factor iu their relation to tariff legislation. A measure has been prepared by the ap propriate congressional committee embody ing tariff reform on the lines herein sug gested, w hich will be promptly submitted lor legislative action. It is the result of much patriotic and unselfish work, and I believe it deals w it ij its subject Consistently and as thoroughly as existing conditions permit. 1 am sati-tied that the reduced tariff da ties pro ided lor in the proposed legisla tion, added to exi-ting internal revenue taxation, will in the near future, though pernapsiiot irumediately, produce sufficient revtiiue to meet the needs of the govern ment. internal Ke venae and Income Taxes. The committee, after full consideration and to provide against a temporary defi- ciency which may exist ix-fore the business of the country adjusts itself to the new tariff schedules, have wisely embraced in their plan a few additional internal rev enue taxes, including a small tax upon in comes derived from certain corporate in vestments. These new assessments are not on'y ab solutely just aud easily borne, but they have the iurther merit of being such as can be remitted without, unfavorable business disturbance wheneverthe necessity of their imposition no longer exists. In my great desire for the success of this measure I cannot restrain tlie suggestion that its success can only be attaiued by means of unselfish counsel on the part of tne menus ot lariu reioi m ana as a result , desires and ambitions to tne general good, !
