Washington. Dec. 7. 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.
The president declares that the Span
ish disposition to charge us with fall
lire to meet International duties Is base
less, and points to the efforts thH gov
ernment has made at the cost of mil
lions and by the employment of the ad-

tlan government has strong forces of

"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
