The attendance in both houses of congress yesterday was notably large, despite the known fact that no business would be trans acted. The event of the day was, of course, the reading of the president's message, a voluminous document of 14. 000 words, and at the conclusion of the reading both houses adjourned until today. The message congratulates congress upon assembling under felicitous con ditions. Peace and good will with all the nations of the earth remain un broken, he says, and we should feel genuine satisfaction at the growing spirit of fraternal regard and unifica tion In all sections of our country and the lifting of great public sense above party prejudice Beginning with the subject of the finances the president says that, while the full effort of the legislation of the extra session has not yet been realized, what It has already accomplished na tures us of Its timeliness and wlsd.:ni. To test Its permanent value further time will bs .required, nn.l the people, satisfied with Its operation and results thus far, are In no mind to withhold from It a fair trial. The next question pressing for con sideration Is that of the currency. With the great resources of the gov ernment and with the. honorable ex implo of the past before us, we ourclit not to nesitate to enter upon a cur rency revision which will make our de mand obligations lers onerous to tho government and relieve our financial inws from ambiguity and doubt. The evil of the present system Is found in the great cost to the government of maintaining at parity with gold our different forms of money, and the ex perience of the past four years have demonstrated that this Is not only an expensive charge upon the government, but a dangerous menace to our na tional credit. Protection Against Itond Insnra. It Is manifest that we must devise tome plan to protect the government against bond issues for repeated re demptions. We have (900,000,000 of currency which the government by sol emn enactment has undertaken to keep it par, and nobody Is obliged to redeem IB gold but the government, which must redeem in gold. The law which requires the payment out of the treas ury of redeemed United States notes demands a constant replenishment of the gold reserve, especially In times of panic and Insufficient revenue, and dur ing the preceding administration $262,- 115,400 4V4 per cent bonds were Issued and sold to sustain the gold reserve and pay the expenses of the government m excess of the revenue. While It Is true that a greater part of this is ved to supply deficient revenues,- a tontlderable portion was required to nalntaln the gold reserve. If no fur ther legislation is to be had to cor rect this, and the policy of selling inds is to be continued, then congress iihould give the secretary of the treas jiry authority to sell bonds at long or iort periods, bearing a less rate of in- ttrest than Is now authorized by law. president says: "I earnestly recommend, as soon as receipts of the government are Mte sufficient to pay an the expenses the government, that when any alted States notes are presented for ttanption in gold and are redeemed in KM, such notes shall be kept and set part and only paid out In exchange "gold. This Is an obvious duty. If ke holder of the United States note tters the gold and gets It from the "eminent he should not receive back nm the government a United States te without paying gold In exchange f It" That amounts, to the presl at's mind, to giving an Interest bear t debt, a government bond, for a non lerest bearing debt, a United States it. The president " s-ites careful con Itratlon for t!...- detail plan of the sec- Ffy of the treasury to protect the H reserve. He concurs with him In W lecommendatton that national 8k be allowed to lssu,e notes to the value of their bonds deposited: U the circulating tax be reduced to t-half of 1 per cent, and that nn W banks may be established with opltal of $25,000. lie also recom p1 that the Issue of national bank f o restricted to tho dononilna- f oi $10 and upward, and that they quired to redeem their notes In llU-atlon Is hoped for.

He says: "I speak not of forcible annexation, for that cannot be thought of. That, by our code of morality, would be crimi nal aggression. Iteootrnltlori Not Warranted. Taking up the questlonof belligerency the president quote at length from President Grant's message of Dec. 7, 1875. wherein he declared that the con ditions In Cuba warranted neither the recognition of Independence nor the re cognition of belligerency. He adds that, moreover, a recognition of belligerency would confer upon neither party to the conflict a status not theretofore actually possessed, while It would weigh heavily In Spain's behalf, giving her the right of search on the hlirh seas and ex tending her maritime rights to the mar gin of our territorial waters. "For these reasons," says the president, "I regard the recognition of the belligerency of the Cuban Insurgents as now unwise, and therefore Inadmissible. Should that step thereafter be deemed wise as a matter of right and duty the execu tive will take It." He points out to the hopeful change In the Spanish policy to the pledge of reform and to the abatement of the horrors of war as reasons agalnt In tervention on humanitarian grounds. I The president sketches) the autonomy scheme of the Spanish government, and says that It Is honestly due to Spain J that she should be given a reasonable chance to realize her expectations and to prove the asserted etllcacv of the new order of things to which she stands irrevocably committed. Urirc Hawaiian Annexation. The president next takes up the sub ject of the annexation of Hawaii. which, he says, should be accomplished. Rap idly reviewing his former arguments In favor of annexation, he says that legislation Is required In the event of the ratification of the treaty, and, while abrupt assimilations of immature ele ments of population should be avoided. Just provision should be made for self rule in local matters, with the largest political liberty to the Hawailans. He says that, the dispute between Japan and Hawaii over the Immigration Question Is now In a satisfactory stage of settlement by negotiation; that our government has not Intervened, and that it Is learned that Japan is now confident of tho intention of this gov ernment to deal with all possible ulte rior questions affecting her Interests In the broadest spirit of friendliness. Reference is made to the failure ot Mr. Merry to be received as minister to Nicaragua on account of the obli gations of that country to the diet of the Greater Republic of Central Amer ica. Mr. W. Godfrey Hunter Is said to be likewise accredited to Honduras, a member of the Greater Republic, and his case Is awaiting action. The Nicaragua canal is spoken of as of large Importance to our country. Tho Monetary Conimlmiou. The president says of the internation al monetary commission that, notwith standing diligent effort, the envoys have failed so far to secure an agree ment. Gratification Is expressed at the action of France in this matter In Join ing in our efforts, and It is said that the negotiations are still pendtng. The president earnestly hopes that their labors may bring about an Internation al agreement. The president urses the Improvement of our merchant marine, declares that negotiations for the protection of Ber ing sea seals are in progress, strongly recommends international arbitration, and bespeaks a liberal appropriation .vi mil. i u ti . .u.i'iio . . . . tttto ia - - .. 1 1 1 it v v. , aiivi - - ' i . k ' .
