President Cleve land's annual message Bant te Congress today opens with review of the. material pregres- el the country daring the flnrt eentury of Ita existence as a nation, and an exhaustive argument in favor of tariff revision. Nearly one-fourth of the mes ssge la devoted te a consideration of theee topics. The preeldent says t a yen auamble for the discharge of the duties you have assumed aa the repreoen repreeen tatlvea of a tree and generous people, yenr meeting la marked byan Interesting and Impressive incident With the expiration of the present session of the Congress, the first century of our constitutional existenee as a nation will be completed. Onr survival for one hundred years la net sufficient te assure us that we no longer have dangers te fear In the maintenance, with all Its premised blessings, of a govern ment founded upon the freedom of the people. The time rather admonishes ua te soberly Inquire whether In the put we have always closely kept In the course of safety, and whether we have before ua a way plain and dear which Ieada te happi ness ana perpetuity. When the experiment of ourgevernment was undertaken, the chart adopted for our guidance was the constitution. Departure from the lines there laid down la a failure. Jtia only by a atrlet adherence te the direction they Indicate and by restraint within the limitations tbey fix that we can furnish proof te the world of the fltmsi of the American people for aelf-geverrnvnt. The equal and exact Jnattee of wh eh we beast aa the underlying principle ei ur Institutions, should net be confined te tee relatiene of our cltlmns te eaeh ether. Tee government itself is under bend te the American people, that In the exercise el Ita funotlens and powers it will deal wltb the body of our citizens In a manner acrupuleuily henestand fair and absolutely J ait. It has agreed that American citizen ship shall be tne only credential necessary te justify the elalm of equality before the law, and that no condition in life snail give rise te discrimination in the treatment of the people by their government SIMPLE GOVERNMENT IK EARLY DATS The citizen of our republle In ita early days rigidly insisted upon full oempll anas with the letter of hla bend and aaw atretehlng out before him a clear field for Individual endeavor. Hla tribute te the auppert of hla government was meaaured by the cost of ita economical maintenance, and he was secure in the enjoyment of the remaining recompense of his steady and oentented toil. In these daya the frugality of the people was atamped upon their government and was enforced by the free, thoughtful and Intelligent suffrage of the citizen. Combinations, monopolies and aggregations el eipltal were either avoided or sternly regulated and restrained. The pomp and glitter of governments leas free, eHered no temptation and presented no delusion te the plain people, who, aide by aide, In friendly competition wrought for the enneblement and dignity of man, for the solution of the problem of free govern ment and for the achievement of the grand destiny awaiting the land which Cled had given them. A eentury has pawed. Oar cities are the abiding places et wealth and luxury ; our manufaoterleayleld fertunesnever dreamed of by the fatbera of the republle; our bualeess men are madly striving in 'hi race for rlebes, and immense aggregatle. et capital outrun the imagination in the magnitude of their undertakings. We view wltb pride and sstlafaetlcn thla bright picture el our country 'a growth and prosperity, while only a dener scrutiny de velops a sembie shading Upen mere careful inspection we find the wealth and luxury et our cities mlDgled with poverty and wretehedness andunremuneratlve tell. A crowded and constantly Increasing urban population auggeata the Impoverishment of rural aeotlene, and discontent with agri cultural puraulta The farmer's eon, net satisfied with bis father's simple and labe rlnus life, joins the eager chase for easily, acquired wealth. We discover that the fortunes realized by our manufacturers are no longer solely the reward et sturdy industry and en lightened terealgbt, but that they result from the discriminating favor of the govern meat, and are largely built up en undne taxatlena from the masses of our people. The gulf between employers and the em ployed li constantly widening and claatca aie rapidly forming, one comprising the very rieh and powerful while in another are found the telling peer. OPFBKBSBD BT TRUSTS AND MONOPOLIES. Aa we view the achievements of aggre gated capital, we discover the existence of units, oemotnattona and monopolies, while the citizen is struggllng'fsr In the rear or Is trampled te death beneath an Iren heel. Corporations, wbleh abeuld be the carefully-restrained creatures et the law and the servanta et the people, are fast becoming the people's master. Btill congratulating ourselves upon the wealth and prosperity of our country and complacently contemplating every Inci dent of ehange lnseperabte from these oon eon oen dltlonr, it Is our duty as patriotic eltlzsna te Inquire, at the present stage et our progress, hew the bend of the government made with the people has been kept and performed. Instead of limiting the tribute drawn from our citizens te the neeeasltlea of ita economical aaministrauen, me government persists In exaetlng from the substance of the people millions, wbleh unspplled and raeleas lie dormant In Ita treaaury. This flagrant Injustice and this breach of faith and obligation add te extortion the danger amending the diversion of the currency of. the oesuiry from the legitimate ebannels of business. , . . , . .. Under the same lawa by which these results are produeed, the government per mits many millions mete te be added te the coat et the living of our people and te be taken from our consumer, whleh un reasonably awell the profits of a email but powerful minority. The people must still be taxed for the support of the government under the opera tionef tarilTlawa. But te the extent that the maie of our citizens are Inordinately burdened beyond any usetul public purpose and for the benefit et a favored kw the government under pretext et an exerelse of Ita taxing power enter gratu lteualy lntepartnerahlp with theae favorites te their advantage ana te the injury of a vast msjexlty ei our people. This is net equality before the law. The existing altuatlen is injurious te the health et our entire body politic It stifles In these for whose benefit It U permitted all Ktrlotle love et country and substitutes la place selfiah creed and graaplng avarice. Devotion te American cltlzenablp for Ita own aake and for what It should accom plish aa a motive te our nstlen'a advance, ment and the bspplness of all our people, la dli placed by tba assumption that the government Instead et being the embodiment of equality, la tut au Instru mentality tbraugn whleh especial and lndl dual advantages are te be gained. The arroganee of tbla assumption la un concealed. It appears In the sordid disre gard of all but personal interests in the re fusal teabate for tba benefit el ethers one leta m Mlfiih advantage and in combinations te nere'nate auch advantages through efferta te oentrllailttan end Improperly In fluence the pflgea of the people.

The arlevaaete of these sol laeluded wheat tally realised, will surely areata lrrl tatlOH and d weed tan t Our farmers, long BnfTsrtBgead patient, straggling In tba race of life, with the hardest and meat unremit ting tell, will net fail te see, la spite et mle reprsaeatslleas aad misleading fallacies, I hat they are obliged te accept a nek prleaa ter their produeta aa are fixed la ferelga markets where they compete with the farsasrs et the world i that tbtlr lands are declining la value while their debta in ereesei and that without cesBpenaallng favor they are forced by the action of the government te pay. for the benefit of ethers, inch enhaneed prieaa for the thlnga they need that the eeanty returns et their labor fall te famish their support or leave be msrgla for aoeumalstleo. Our werklngmen, enfranchised from all delusions and no longer frightened by the cry that their wages are endangered by a Just revision et our tariff lawa, will reason ably demand through sueh revision steadier employment, cheaper meana of living la their homes, freedom for themselves and their children from the deem of perpetual servitude aad aa open deer te their advancement beyond the llmlta of a laboring elaat. Otbera of enr eltlzens, whose oemtorta and expenditure are measured by moderate salaries and fixed incomes, will Insist upon the fairness aad Justice of cheapening the coat et neces saries for themselves and their families. When te the selfishness et the benefi ciaries of unj net discrimination under our lawa there ahall be added the discontent of these who antler from eech discrimination, we will realize the faet that the beneficent purposes of our government, dependent upon the patriotism and contentment of our people, are endangered. Communism is a hateful thing and a menace 10 peaee and organized govern, ment But the communism of combined wealth and capital, the outgrowth et over weening eupidlty and selfishness, whleh insidiously undermines the justloe and integrity of trte Institution, is net lets dangerous than the oemmunlam of op. pressed poverty and tell, which, exasper ated by injustice and discontent, attacka with wild disorder the citadel of rule. WHEN A GOVERNMENT IB UNJUST. He mocks the people who proposes that the government aball protcet the rich and that they in turn will care for the laboring peer. Any intermediary between the pee ple ana meir governmtnt,er tne leastaeiega leastaeiega leastaeiega tlonei theeareand protection the govern ment ewea te the humblest eltlzan In the land, makes the beast of free Institutions a glittering delusion end the pretended becn of American citizenship a shameless impes Itlen. A Just and sensible revision of our tariff, lawa Bbeuld be made for the relief of these of our oeuntry men who suffer under pres ent condition. Such a revision should re re re oelve the support tit all who love that Jus tice and equality due te American olllaen elllaen shlp, or all who realiza that In thin tnstlee and equality our government rinds Ita a reegtu nedi's power te protect the citlisn and hla property, of all who believe that the contented competence and comfort of many acoerd better with tbe spirit et our Inatltutlena than colossal fortunes unfairly gathered In the bauds of a lew, of all who appreciate that the fcrbearanes and fra ternity among our peeple, which recognize the value et every American Interest, are the surest guaranty of enr national preg rets, and of all who desire te see the prodnets of American skill and Ingenuity In e,ery tnancet of the world with a result ing restoration of American commerce. The necessity of tbe reduotlen of our revenue la an apparent as te be generally oenoeded. Bat the meana by wbleh this end shall be accomplished and the aum of direct benefit whleh snail result te our cltlzent, present a controversy of the utmost Importance. There Bheuld be no aeheme aoeepted aa aatls'aotery by whleh the burdens of the people are only appirently removed. Ex travagant appropriations of public money, with all ihe-lr demoralizing oenaequences, abeuld net be tolerated, either aa a meana of rellevlng the treasury et Ita present surplus, or bs tarnishing pre text for resitting a proper reduction in tariff rates Existing evils and Injustice Bheuld be honestly recognized, beluly met and effectively remedied. There abeuld be no cessation of the atruggle until a plan is perfected, fair and conservative toward existing Industries, but whleh will reduee the cost te consumers of tbe neeeseariea of life while It provides for our manufacturers the advantage of freer raw materiala and permits no injury te the interests of Amer can labor. TARIFF REFORM SHOULD RE PURSUED The cause for whlelt the battle li waged is comprised within lines clearly and dis tinctly defined. It Bheuld never be com promised. It Is the people's eaure It cannot be denied that tbeaelfiahand private Interests which are se persistently heard, when efforts are made te deal In a Just and cemprebenslve manner with our tariff laws, are related te. it they are net, responsible for, the aenti ment largely prevailing among the people, that tbe general government lathe fountain of Individual and private aid; tbst it may be expected te relieve, with paternal care tbe dlitreaa of citizens and communities, and tbat from the tul'ness el Its treasury it Bheuld, upon the (lightest possible pretext of promoting the general geed, apply public funds te the benefit et localities and indi viduals. Ner eau it be denied tbat there la a growing assumption tbst, as against tbe government and in favor of private claims and lnterei a, tbe uiual rulea and limi tations of buaines principles and Just deal ing abeuld be waived. Theae ideas have been unhappily mueh enoeuraged by legislative acquiescence. Belief from contracts made with the government Is tee easily accorded In favor of the eltlzen; tbe failure te support claims agalnat tbe government by proof, is elten supplied by no belter conalderstlen than tbe wealth of tbe government and tbe poverty of tbe claimant; gratltt I les In tbe form of penalena are grunted upon no ether real ground than tbe needy condition of tbe applicant, or for reasons leis valid; and large auma are expended for pnblle build ings and ether Improvements upon repre sentations scsreely claimed te be related te public needs and necessities. The extent te which tbe consideration et such mattera auberdinate and postpone aotlen upon subjects et great publle Import ance aheuld, tbe preeldent thinks, arrest attention and lead te reformation; and he thus cites a few et tbe numerous illustra tions el this condition i The crowded condition of the calendar et the supreme oenrt, and the delay te aultera and dental of Justloe resulting therefrem, has been strongly urged upon the attention et the Congress, wltb a plan for the relief el the altuatlen approved bv these well buIe te judge of lla merits. While this subject remalna without eflte'lve consideration, many laws have been passed providing ter tbe holding et terms of interior courts at plaoeate suit the oenvenlenoaof loeillticr, or te lay tbe foundation of application ter tbe erection of a new publle bunding. Kepeated reoemmeodatlona have been submitted for tbe amendment and change of tba laws relating te our publle landa se tbat their spoliation and dlverstqn te ether uses than as hemea for honest settlers might be prevented. While a measure te meet thla coneeded necessity of reform re malna awaiting tbe action of the Cengrea, many claim a te the publle lands and ap ap pllcatlena for tbelr donation, In favor of stales and individuals, have been allowed. A plan In aid of Indian management recommended by these well informed as oentalnlng valuable feat u tea In furtherance of the solution el tbe Indian problem, ba thus far failed of legislative sanction, while grants nf doubtful expediency te railroad corporations, permitting tbem te pass through Indian reservation, have greatly multiplied. The propriety and necetslty et the erec tion el one or mere prisons ler tbe confine. ment of United States oenviots, and a post pest post effloe building In tbe national capital, are net disputed. But theae needs yet remain unanswered; while scores of puolte build ings have been ereetel where tbelr necessity ter publle purpeaea la net apparent PENSION LAWS NEED HETISION. A revision et enr pension laws could easily be made wbleh would rest upon Just prtnelplea and provide for every worthy applicant. But while our general pension lawa remain contused and Imperfect, hun dreds et private pension lawa are annually aahljiH aa lha unw 9 tinltiat IaUorlmlnaUea and popular demoralisatien.

And yet the people wait aad ex pact from their oheaenrepraaantatlvaa snob patriotic aotlen aa will advance the welfare el the entire country aad thla ex ex ex peotatlen can only be anaweted by tbe performance of publle dnty with unselfish purpose, Oar mission among the natlena of the earth, and our success in accompli ti the work Oed has given the American people te de, require et these Intrusted with tbe making and execution of our lawa perfect devotion above all ether things, te the publle geed, Thla devotion will lead ua te strongly realst all Impatience of constitutional limi tations et federal power and te perslatently check the increasing tendency te extend the asepe of federal legislation Inte tbe domain of state and local Jurisdiction, upon the plea of subserving tba publle welfare. Tbe preservation et the partitions between proper subjects of federal and loeal eare and regulation la of aueh Importance under the constitution, whleh la the law of our very exlatenee, that no oenalderatloa of ex pediency or sentiment aheuld tempt ea te enter upon doubtful ground.

The president next deals with our foreign relatiene, wbleb, be says, have during the pest year been atrengtbened and improved. These questions whleh attll await eettlement are all reasonably within the domain or amicable negotiation and susceptible of Mtlsfactery adjuatment by frank diplomatic treatment The fisheries question, he re grets te aay, Is.net satisfactorily adjusted, and reiterates that the treaty rejected by the Senate did supply "a satisfactory, prao prae prao tleal and final adjustment upon a basis honorable and Just te both parties of tbe dlffieult and vexed question te whleh It rBl&tBds" Referring te the Lord Saekvllte Incident, the president prem'ses that tbe correspon dence in relation te It, whleh will Boen be laid bsfere Congress, 'will dltolete the unpBrdonable oenduct of the cfllelal re ferred te, In his Interference by advice and counsel, with tbe suffrages of American eltlzsna In the very crisis of the presidential election then near at band, and also In his subsequent publle declarations te Justify his action, superadding impugnment nf the exeeutive ana Ben ate of tbe United States In connection wltb important questions new pending In controversy between the two govern ments."

Commenting en bend purchases by tbe secretary of the treaaury, he saja i EFFE0T8 OF TUB BOND PURCHASES. By this plan bends of tbe government net yet due have been purchased up te and Including the 30ib day of November, 1888, amounting te fM,700,400, the premium paid thereon amounting te 17,tC8 013 OS. The premium sdded te tbe principal el theae bends represents an Investment yield ing about 2 per e&nt Interest for tbe time they bad te ruu; and tbe saving te tbe government represented by tbe difference between the amount of Interest at 2 per cent, upon tbe sum paid for principal and premium and what It would have paid for inierest at tbe rate specified In tbe bends It tbey had run te tnclr maturity, is about f27,165,C00. At first algbt this would seem te be a profitable and aonslbie transaction en the E art e' tl e government But, aa aeggeated y tbe tecretary t tbe treaaury, tbe surplus thus expended for tbe pureuise of benda was money drawn from tbe people in ex cets of any actual need of tbe government, and web se expended rather tnan allow It te remain Idle In the treasury. If thla surplus under tbe operation of Just and equitable laws bad been left In tbe banda ei the people, It would have been worth In their bufciruei at least six per cent p9r annum. Deduetlng from tbe amount of Interest upon the principal and premium of these bends for tbe time they bad te ran at tbe rate el alx per cent tbe saving et two per cent, made for tbe people by tbe purcbasH et such bends, theless will appear .ehefS5,700 0C0. This calculation would aeem te demon strate tbst if excessive and nnnecesssiy taxation is oentlnued and tbe government la foreed te pursue this policy of purchasing its own bends at tbe premlems wbleb it will be neceteary te pay, tbe Ioas te the people will be Hundreds of millions of dollars. Since the purchase of beadB was under taken, as mentioned, nearly sll that have been ettered wtrentlaat accepted.

The building was probably aeventy feet in length and about fllteen In width. It was erected ever a year age and steed en the south side or Iho tracks, ever one hundred yarda west of the atatlen. About 10 o'clock Saturday night the building waa dlsoeverod te be en Are.

The men qulekly procured axes and cut what re mained et the cabin off. Who ran tbe engtne from tbe burning beuse no one knows. The general belief Is tbat some one dlieavered tbe fire and endeavored te save tbe engine by running it out. When he found tbat It bad Jumped the trsek he probably became frightened and ran away.

The total expenditures were 141,105,107 ; the appropriations for the current fiscal year amount te $59,670, 03i and the. estimates for the flaeal year ending June 80, 1800, aggregate $41,033 607. In commenting en rifle practice, the secretary makes the suggestion : "By a generous supply of ammunition for target practice te colleges where army officers are serving aa Instructors, It Is pos sible that competitive contests In rifle sheeting might In time become as popular with some of these Inland oellegea aa beat racing new la at the universities of our seaboard." It la suggested that some action should be taken by Congress te enforeo the rights of the United States innavigable streams within the Hrntta of a state, and thus glve effect te the duty resting upon the govern ment te protect navigation thereon. The attention of Congress la again Invited te the defeneelesa condition of the aeaoeast and Uke frontiers, and liberal and Immedi ate aotlen la recommended looking te the cflbotlve defence of our principal seaports. The sccretarv says : "It would appear new mere Important than evor that sueh action aheuld be taken at the second session of the present Cen gress, In vlew of the faet that the last ses sion gave appropriations for the construc tion of heavy ordnance. Without heavy platforms, strong armored protection and ether permanent emplacements, these guns and mortars, when finished, will be of com paratively llttle use." The building of modern gun and mortar batterlca requires longer periods of tlme that the construction of the armament. It would appear the part of wisdom that the preparation of these two Important compo nents of a well equipped defence aheuld proceed slinulUueeualy, Fer the beginning of the oenstraotlon of sueh defences an appropriation of $3,810, 000 Is asked for. Twe hundred thousand dollars Is asked for the repair and preservation of existing works ; for the purchase of torpedoes and lubmarlne mines and the neoessary appli ances foreporatlng them for experimenting 'te ascertain the best of the many torpode Inventions, and for the continuing of the construction of tbe necessary casemates, cable galleries, etc, for working the sub marine mlne and torpode systems, $1,890 000 is recommended. Th Peaimaatar General's Xlcpert. The postmaster general's report presents coneisely the oendltlon snd history of every braneh of the postal service for the flsjal year ending June 80, 1889, with many striking comparisons with previous years, showing a remarkable expansion of busi ness and a large Inoreaso In expenditure. The gross rovenuo for the year was $59, 005.170. The total expenditure, inoluslve of liabilities for the year unpaid, and em bracing the amount for transportation of malls onPaelflo rallreada for which the government receives credit, waa $30,885. 403. Tbe estimated deficiency, therefore, Is $4,100,227. The total estimated gross receipts for the year ending 3une 80, 1889, U $62,508,058. The probable amount of expenditure te be made in carrying en the business of the postal service for tbe year ending June 30, 1890, as shown by estimates submitted te the secretary of the treasury, is $03,81?, 073. The deflolcney te be supplied from the general treasury is, therefore, $3,803, 414. The velume of ordinary mall matter has largely Inereased, and It la estimated that tbe revenue en the number of pleces handled during tbe past year would have been, without reduction of postage, up wards of $70,000,000. The postmaster general submits that ap propriations for speelal pay te railroads should be better distributed, or, If need be, increased, if the policy of speelal appro priations for increased pay is te be contin ued. Statistics are submitted contrasting our service with that of Great Britain, Ger many and Franee, demonstrating that In cheapness of postage, gross rovenue and expenditures, number of postefBoes, ex tent of mall routes, mlleage of mall ser vice, and volume of mall matter transmit ted, the postal system of the United States Is the leading one of the world. In connection with the foreign mall ser vice, and especially in relation te our n.eans of communication with Seuth and Central America and Mexico, the postmaster gen eral vigorously reasserts hla views agalnat making tbe postal administration the dls buner of subsidies. Under the head of "Postal Telegraghy" he says : "If the oerrospondonoo of the oeuntry Is te contlnue te be under the oharge and pro tection of the government, the vast and in in ercaalng velume condueted by telegraphy and right of the great body et people te be afforded facilities for the best aud qulekest transmission at rates within tbe reach of all will press this subject upon the atten tion of Congreaa with mere and mere urgoney. The chief difficulties In tbe way are the great coat of present methods and the absence of safeguard, which according te the theory of tbe present mall service, should protect the privacy of correspond ence. I have given the subject much con sideration, and I bellove that the Inveutlve Senlus of this country has reached a sUge In Iscevery In eleotrle science when these problems may be solved. I recommend the appointment of a commission of competent aud disinterested mcn.learned in the science, who may oxainlue inventions and invite ethers, who shall be authorized te erect short experimental lines, and who shall re pert te the president or Congress the result of their investigations." Tba Interior Department. The secretary of the Interior, in his re port, calls attention te the accumulated business in tbe land office, and says : The commission states that a thorough examination haa been made of all tbe un finished business In his office, and that the results presented may be accepted as accu rate. This Information carries a heavy re proach against the government, and seems te call fur action which shall relieve the condition exhibited." Of final entries, there were pending en the 30th of June last 239,150: and the number of such entries mode during the last veir was 70,408. This latter number exceeds all the final entries disposed of by patent during the last year ; se that Instead of a dlmlnlshment of arrearages, the ac cumulatien of eases has increased. The cnmmlasleuer expresses the hope that It will be possible te dispose of 75,000 of these cases during the eurrentyear : a num ber which will net diminish sensibly the mass if, aa may be reasonably expected, se many final entries shall be made during the current as during the past year. Ne rea rea aeuable expectation Is therefore held out te the settler who has met all the require ments of the law that he can receive the evidence of hla title for nearly four years after his proof shall have been submitted. When it la also considered that in many In stances defects of proof will require further action en his part te be followed by further delays in temring a final dis position, the default of tbe government te Its citizens becomes glarlngaud painful. ixji me wiscavaiewuuutiroeivuuuuaiuui he says ; "I desire te renew tbe recommendation f ay prjtaeaier is effiee a the last aa nnal report that this commission be made Independent of the department of the In terior, required te report dlrretly te the president or te Cengrcs, and authorized te appoint Ita own officers and empleyes, and te deal directly with the treasury In tbe ex penditure of and aoeountlng for tbe appro priation made for lla support," , In (the report en the bureau or labor atatlstlca are given, showing the Increase et atrlkea during six vnars During lf-81 Ihere were 471 ; In 1883, 454 ; 1883, 478 : 1884, 443 ; 1883, 04.1, and 18S0, 1.41 1! Fer theae years the number of establishments affected was 2,028, 2,103, 2,750, 2.807, 2,884, 0,881. The number of cmplevwa, sfl footed was : 120,521, 134.071, 149,703, 147, 054,242,705,409,489. Succeas followed the strikes occurring In 10,075 establishments. The number of persons striking and Involved In the sua cessful strikes wsa 518,593. In 8,004 establishments the strikes were partially successful, and In these establishments there were 143.076 persona Involved, whlte the whole number of persons Involved In the 8,010 establishment where the strikes were failures were 000,300- Strikes for an Increate of wages occurred In 0,439 establishments; of thtre the strikes In 0i20, or 03,90 per cent,, were successful, while In 790, or 8.43 per cnt., thn strikes were paitly successful, and In 2114 estab lishments, or 23.53 per eeut,, the strikes for tbls cause failed. In 4344 establishments strikes were re sorted te secure a reduction of the hours of labor ; In 1053, or 25.20 per cent., suoecss waa the result J In 900, or 29.24 per cent., the strikes were partly iiioecusful ; aud In 2323, or 69.47 per cent., the strtketa were defeated. Original pensioners te Uie number nf 60, 253 were added te the pension rolls during the last flcal year, and Increases were granted In 45,710 eases. The names of 15, 730 pensioners were dropped from the rolls for various cattRcs, ae that at the end of the year the total number remaining of all elaaiea was 453,657, of whleh 1123,00 were atmy Invalid pensioners, 00,833 army wid ows, children aud dependent relatives; 3813 navy lnvallds,2084 navy widows, chil dren and dependent relatives ; 800 survi vors of the war of 1812, and 10,787 widows of thotewho served In that war; 10,000 Moxlean soldiers aud 0101 widows of Mexi can soldiers. At the present tlme 103 dllTorent rates of pension prevail, ranging from $3 per mouth te $110,00 per month ; but the average an nual value of eaeh penalen nt tha clone of the year la shown te be $125,30 ; and the aggregate annual value of all pensions, $5$,707,2t0,03. an Increase for the year of $3, 852,070.70. The amount paid for pensions during the year was $73,773,801.03 au Inoreaso ever tbe previous year of $3,808,680.23 ; the dif ference betw3cu the actual payments and the snnual value having been occasioned by first payments Involving arrears. Thus there were paid te 04.283 pensioners, ro re ro eolvlng first payments during the year, the aum or $22.209, 003'40. and thore remained In the hands of pension agcnls 0574 eases of this kind unpaid ou the 00th of June, upeu which were due $3,405,723,40. The cost attending the disbursement of this money, embracing the pay of officers and empleyes of the bureau, Its agents, sur geons, special examiners and ethers, was $3,203,624.07, making the total expenditure for all purposes by tills bureau during the year, $83,038,880,00 ; being 21V per cent, et the total gross luoenio of the United Btates for that time, and nearly 81 per cent of the total expenditures of the government for the flieal year. This entire business was transacted without defalcation or fi nancial Irregularity Involving the govern ment, and tlure was some acceleration of tbe rapidity of payment. CO.lailESS IN BE9SION.
