CLEVELAND’S MESSAGE. The President Discusses Matters us Interest tb the Natidn. Foreign Relation* Snd National Finances the Chief .Topics—Many Kecommendatloua—Wants Greenback* Retired— Cautions Against Free Coinage. A synopsis of President Cleveland’s message as submitted to congress on Tuesday is as follows:- ’ To theCoxohbss or ths Vnited States: The present assemblage of the legislative branch of our government occurs at a time when the interests of our people and the needs ot the country give especial prominence to the eet’.mtion of our foreign reiHlions anti thb t-X'.gencttes of<3pr natibhal finances. The reports of the Heads ot the Several administrative departments of the government fully and plainly exhibit what has been accomplished within the scope bt their respective duties and present such i ecvnuuvmiatiotis tot the betterment ot our country's condition as patriots and irttelli- ’ gent labor and observation suggesu . . i The first subject ot importance touched - upon is tin- disordered condition ot affarrs iir China following upon the close ot the ; war with Japan, the consequent weakening ot the central authority of the government, and the serious outbreaks ot the old fanatical spirit against foreigners is discussed. The demands ot the L nited Stales and other power* Ayr the punishment of the aggressors and the compliance «>t the Chinare related, as is the demand ot the United Slates fur a special commission to investigate the disturbances * here they first brohe out. "The energetic steps we have thus taken," says the president, "are all Hie bs. ,re to result tn future safety tv our ffitlfcens in China, because the imperial government i». 1 am persuaded, entirely e«n--tettKvd- that we desire onby the liberty an I protei-rion of our own cuixens and redress for any wrongs they may have suffered, and that we have no ulterior designs or objects, political or otherwise." Txlks <>r the W slier t a-e. Ot the Waller Incident tfie message says: "The customary cordial relations between this country anil France have been undis-t'iit'*-il. with the.excento-*n that a full exlii at:--:i >•: tli- tr-.itnunt vs Jean I. Waller t*> the e'xpedilKuiarj military authorities ot France still remains to be given." , "Xhe oflicial record ot the trial has been . furnished this government," says the message. but tile evidence ad iuced in suppor’ of the charges which was nut received t*y the French minister tor foreign affairs till the tir»t week In October—has thus far been withheld, the French government taking the ground that its production in response to our demand would establish a bad prei-edt'nt. The efforts of out am bassador to procure it. however, though retarded by recent changes in the French miniate)’, have not been relaxed, and It Is confidently expected that some satisfactory solution ot the matter will shortly be reached." An invitation has been extended by France to th* government and people of the United States to participate in a great" ’lnternational exposition at Paris in IWO as a suitable commemoration ot the'close of this, the world's marvellous century ot progress. 1 heartily 'recommend its acceptance, together w ith such legislation as Will adequately provide for a due representation ot this government and its people ou the occasion. .« Our Kejatiou* with Germany. Our relations with Germany, he says, are Influenced by the "delusive doctrine that the internal development of a na'ion is pjoinote*! and Its wealth increased by a ixilicy w hich is undertaking to reserve its norue markets for the exclusive use of Its own producers;w hich nee* ssarily obstructs aai* s in foreign markets *)nd prevents ff- e access to th<- products of the world Th? desire to retain trade in, time-worn ruts, regardless ot the inexorable laws of new needs and changed conditions of demand and supply, and our own halting tardiness to inviting a free exchange o. commodities and by this means imperiling our footing to the external markets naturally open to Us, have created a situation somew hat injurious to American import Interests not only in Germany, where they are perhaps most noticeable, but in adjacent countries " « t he exports affected are largely American cattle atx*i other food products, th. reason assigned for unfavorable discrimination being that their consumption I* deleterious to the public health. This is ail the more irritating in view of the fai l that no European state is as jealous of the ex- ellenee and wholesomeness ot its exported fec*A supplies as the United States nbr so easily able on account of inherentsoundness tv> those qualities. it is net to" be forgotten that international trade cannot be one-sided. Its currents are alternating and its movements Should be honestly reciprocal. Without this it almost necessarily degenerates into &• device to gain advantage or a contrivance to .-.cure benefits with only the semblance of a return. In pur dealings with other nations we ought to be open-handed and s rupulously fair. This should be our policy as a producing nation, and it plainly beci.mes us as a people who love generosity and the morrl aspects of national good faith and reciprocal forbearance. These considerations should not, iu-wever. .constrain us: to submit to unfair discrimination nor to silently acquiesce in vexatious bvndratices toMhe enjoyment of our share ot- the legitimate advantages of proper trade relation*.

An in-■urr-e-tion. in some respects more active than the test preceding revolt, which continued from rs®i to I$7S. now exists in a large |iart of the eastern Interior of the island. menacing even some populations on in*- coast. Besides deranging the commernal exchanges of the island, of which our country taxes the predominant share, this flagrant condition of hostilities, by arousing sentimental sympathy and inciting adventurous support among our people, has entailed tamest effort on the part of this government to enforce obedience to our neutrality laws and to prevent the territory of the United States from being abused as a vantage ground from which to aid those tn arms against Spanish sovereignty. •Though neither the warmth of our people's thACuban insurgents nor our loss or material damage consequent upon the futile endeavors thus fa r made to restore peace and order, nor any shock our humane sensibilities may have received from the cruelties.which appear to especially characterise this sanguinary and Hen-ely-conductevi war. have in the k-ast shaken the determination of the government to honestly fulfill every international obligation The president then expresses his regret that the Turkish government should have thwarted the purpose to send to the disturbed quarter of the empire the I nited States consul at Sivas In order to investigate and report. Every effort, he says, is put forth to tnsure the safe y of American citiiens. and the United States minister is alert But, he goes bn. several of the most powerful European powers have assumed a duty asagejits of the Christian world lit Turkey to restrain fanatical brutality, and "it is earnestly hoped that prompt and effective action on their part will not le delayed."

eotatnH-eSi the qutatkiM «f *» improvement in the consular Service haS thcreased in importance and urgency. Though thetS is no dpubt that the great body of consular officers are rendering valuable services to the trade ans industries of the country, the needs Os some plan of apnointtpe.nt and control which would tend to sevuts a higher average of efficiency is not denied. The importance of the subject has led the executive to consider what steps might properly be taken without additional legislation, to answer lufe n*»d of a better system of consular appointment?. The matter having been committed to the cop.-: sideration of the secretary of state, in pursuance of his recommendations, an executive order was issued on the 20th of September, 1595, by the terms of which it Is provided that after that date any vacancy in a consulate or commercial agency, with an annual salary or; compensation from official fees of not more than J 2.500 or less than SMOO. should be filled either by transter or promotion from some other position tinder the department of. state of a character tending to qualify the Incumbent for the position to be filled; or by the appointment of a person ’bot under the department of state, but having previously snved thereunder and shown his capacity and fitness for consular duty; or by tige appointment of a person who, having >been selected by the president and sent to a board for examination, is found, upon such examination, to be qualified for the position. Posts which pay less than JI,OW being usually, on account of thefr small compensation. tilled by selection from residents of the locality, it- was not deemed ; practicable to put them under the new ; system. National Finances. Fully half the message Is devoted to a I discussion of the financial situation. He gives a lengthy review of the growth I 8f our currency, especially- the United ' fates notes and treasury notes, and the ; consequent endless drain on the gold re- ; serve of the treasury. ’ . The president, states that "among the I causes for this constant and uniform | shrinkage in this fund may be mentioned I the great falling off of ekports uncles the operation of the tariff law uniil recently ’ft ffireK which crippled out exchanges of Commodities with foreign nations and ne-. Cessitated to some extent the payment o* j pur balances in gold; the unnatural infu- I eiion of sliver into our currency and the in- ( creasing agitation for its free and unlimited coinage, which have created apprehension as to our disposition or ability to eontinue gold payments; theconSequent hoarding of gold at home and the Stoppage of • investments Os foreign capital, as well its the return of our securities already sp:d abroad, and the high fate f foreign e#- I change. ■ which Induced the shipment of otir gold to be drawn against as a matter of speculation." Dealing* with Bond Syndicate. The history- of the various bond trans- 1 actions which have been resorted to In order to replenish the gold reserve is reviewed and the-constant subsequent fallings off pointed out. We are now. the president says, nearly where we started, and nearly all of the gold withdrawn has been paid out-on United States notes, which still remain uncancel, d. Therefore, he says, 'I am convinced the only thorough and practical remedy for bur troubles is found in the retirement and cancellation of our United States notes, commonly railed greenbacks, ami the outstanding treasury notes issued by the government in payment of silver | purchases under the act of I*9o.’* i The method he proposes is an exchange , for bonds, small and. large un<! bearing a low rate of interest and for a long term. ; The increase ift the bonded debt would be compensated by renewed activity and enterprise and restored confidence. A troublesome indebtedness would be canceled. instead of the menace of unending bonds. , . The obligations necessary to fund this indebtedness would not equal in amount those from which we have been relieved since ISM, by anticipation and payment, beyond the requirements of the sinking fund out of our surplus revenues. Increase in Circulation. "The currency withdrawn by the retire- I

ment of the United States notes and treaa- ■ ury notes, amounting to probably less than might be supplied by such gold ; as Would be used on their retirement, or by ■ an increase in the circulation of our na- ; tional l-anks.. . I ,think they should | be allowed to issue < irculation equal to the, I par value of the bonds they deposit io se- i. cure' it. and thaf the tax on their clrcula- i tion should be reduced tq one-tfoiirth of one per cent., which would undoubtedly meet all the expense of the gov» rntnent incurred i on their account. In addition they should be allowed to substitut, or deposit in lieu of the bonds now required as security for their circulation those which would be issued for the purpose of retiring the United ! States notes and treasury notes." It is estimated that this would Increase . the national bank circulation by nearly as much as the currency retired. Restrictions I In the law on the location of national l«nks In the law- on the location of national banks, I the- president says, might be done away with and branch banks authorized. "But there might not, be the necessity for Such an addition of the currency by new issues of bank circulation as at first glance is indicated,” he says. The silver left in the treasury, ue thinks, might Is* gradually converted into fractional coin. The government, he Says, receives no gold in payment of. revenues, nor Would it if the revenues were increased. The' receipts are all in silver certificates. United States notes and treasury notes. i Beginning of the Panic. On July 1, 1892, more than a year and a half before the first bonds were issued :o < replenish the gold reserve, there was a net balance in the treasury-, exclusive of such- ; reserve, of less than but the gold reserve amounted io more than JlU,oi»>.'X*>. . which .was the quieting feature of the situation. It was when the stock of gold began rapidly to fall that fright supervened, our securities held abroad were returned for sale and debts owed abroad wer" ; pressed for payment. In the meantime extensive shipments of gold and other unfavorable indications caused restlessness ' and fright among our people at hofne. | "Thereupon tne general state of our I futidg; exclusive of gold, became also immaterial to them, and they, too, drew gold frum'qhe treasury for hoarding against all contingencies. This is plainly shown by the large increase in the proportion of gold withdrawn which was retained by our own people -as time and threatening incidents progressed. During/the fiscal year ended June 30. ISM, nearly ».<>.<»»,.no in gold was withdrawn from the treasury and about |77.t»«.>,'<«' was sent abroad, while during the fiscal year ended June SO, .1895, over *117.was drawn out. of which only about was shipped, leaving the large balance of Such withdrawals to be accounted for by domestic hoarding 'lt is possible that the suggestion of increased revenue as a remedy fbr the difficulties we are considering may have originated In an intimation or distinct allegation that the bonds which have .been issued ostensibly to replenish our gold reserve Were really issued ,o supply insufficient revenue. Nothing car. be further from the truth. Bonds were issued to obtain gold' for the maintenance of our nax - cnaf credit. As has been shown, the gold thus obtained has been drawn again from the" treasury ut»on United States notes and treasury notes. This operation would have ■ been promptly prevented if possible; but these notes havffig thus been jiassed tqtho treasure, they become the money of thft government, like any other ordinary government funds, and there was nothing to do but to use’them iff paying government expenses when needed. The president theft takes up the tree silver coinage question and says; •Were there infinitely stronger reasons than can be adduced for hoping that such ! action would secure,for us a bimetallic cur--1 rency moving on lines of parity, an expen . merit so novel and hazardous as that proi posed might tjrell stagger those who believe I that stability is an imperative condition of i sound money i Mast Maintain the Single Standard. | Those who advocate a blind and head- | long plunge to free coinage In the name , Ot bi-metalism and professing the be- ■ lief contrary th all experience that we should thus establish a double standard ami a concurrent c-irculatiun of both metals of our coinage are certainly reckoning : from a cloudy standpoint. Our present standard of value is the standard of the civilized world aqd permits the only bii'metallism new possible, or-at. least that is within the independent reach of any • single nation, however powerful that na- : non may be. While the value of gold 1 is steadied by almost universal commerdal and business use. it does not despise silver nor seek its banishment. A lengthy argument against the theory of the government's power to maintain the value of silver follows on well-known lines, and the value of a safe and stable currency is enlarged upon in general terms. The message closed as f dlows: "I have ventured to express myself on this subject with earnestness and plainness of speech, because I cannot rid myself of the belief that there lurks in the proposition for the free coinage of silver, so strongly approved and so enthusiastically advocated by a multitude of my countrymen, a’ serious menace to our prosperity and an : insidious temptation of our people to wan- ; der from the allegiance they owe to public ; and private integrity. ! "In conclusion. I specially entreat the ' people's renresenatives In the congress, i who are charged with the responsibility of i inaugurating measures for "he safety and prosperity of our common country, to I promptly and effectively consider the ills t of our critical financial plight. I have suggested a remedy which my judgment ap- > proves. I desire, however, to assure the 1 congress that I am prepared to cooperate I with them in perfecting any other measure promising thorough and practical relief. I and that I will gladly labor with them In every patriotic endeavor to further the interests and guard the welfare of our countrymen, whom in our respective places of duty we have undertaken to serve.
