Although the pro' t-i'dlngs in the house yesterday were perfunctory, the scene was a bril liant one. The vote on speaker, which resulted, Reed (Kep.), 199: Bailey (Dem.), 114; Hell (rap.), 21, and New lancla (SllverUe), 1, aliened several heretofore unclassified members. All ' the Populists voted for Bell. Of the fuslnnlsts three, Baker and Jett of Illi nois and Marshall of Ohio, voted for Bailey; one. Maxwell of Nebraska, voted for Bell, and three, Jones and Lewis of Washington and Todd of Michigan, did not vote. Two of the sllveiites, Newlands of Nevada and Bhafroth of Colorado, did not vote, and Hartman of Montana voted for New lands. Speaker Reed was enthusi- optically received on his appearance In j the houBe after hl" election, and made I nd ,.m; sworn in by Mr. Ilarmer, of Pennsyl vania, the oldest member in contlnu- ous service. After the introduction of the tariff I bill the Bpcaker immediately announced , the members of the committee on rules, ways and means, and mileage, as fol lows: Itules The speaker, Henderson of Iowa and Dalaell of Pennsylvania, Ile publtcang, and Bailey of Texas and Mc Millln of Tennesapo, Democrats, Ways and Means Dlnjrley of Mnlne, Payne of New York, Dalzell of Penn sylvania, Hopkins of Illinois, Qroevenor of Ohio, Ttussell of Connecticut, Dol liver of Iowa, Steele of Indiana, John son of North Dakota, Evans of Ken tucky and Tawney of Minnesota, Re publicans, and Bailey of Texas, McMil lln of Tennessee, Wheeler of Alabama, McLaurin of South Carolina, Robert son of Louisiana and Swanson of Vir ginia, Democrats, Mileage Wright of Massachusetts, Barham of California and Boose o( Maryland, Republicans, and Cooper of Texas and Lewis, of Georgia, Demo crats.

This Was the only Incident out of the ordtnary con nected with the proceedings. The presi dent's mpssage was applauded vigor ously, as was Mr. Dingley when he In troduced the new tariff bill. The ways and means committee Secured leave to U during the ses sions of the 1 to use, after which, at 1 o'clock, the house adjourned until Thursday next. The senate began itsr work in extra session with 87 senators present, and with the galleries backed to their full limit. The whole business of the day was confined to the reading of the president's lneBage, the seating of the new senator from Kansas, Mr. Harris, and the reference of the credentials ot Mr, Corbett as senator from Oregon to the committee on privileges and elec tions. The president's' message, the reading ot whkh was listened to with the closest attention, was as follows: To the congress of the United States: Hegrett'ng the necessity which has required me to call you together, I feel that your assembling in extraordinary session is indispensable because of the condition in which wa find the reve-. nues flf the government. It Is conced ed that Its current expenditures are greater than Its receipts, and that such a condition has existed for now more than three years. With unlimited means at our coraand we are present ing the' remarkable spectacle of in creasing our public debt by borrowing money to meet the ordinary ouUays incident upon even an economical and prudent administration of the govern ment. An examination of the subject discloses this fact in every detail, and leads Inevitably to the conclusion that the condition of the revenue which al lows it Is unjustifiable, and should be corrected. We find by the reports of the M rotary of the treasury that the reve nue for the fiscal year ending June 10, 1802, from all sources, were MSB, 888,280.23, and the expenditures for all purposes were (415,968,808.56, leaving an excess of receipts over expenditures ot $8,814,403.06. During that fiscal year 140,570,467.98 were paid upon public debt, which had been reduced since March 1, ISS'J, t250,076.880,and the an nual Interest charge decreasd 811,684, 676.60, The receipts of the government from all sources during the fiscal year ending June 80, UV3. amounted to 8401. 716,681.84, and its expenditures to 8469,- 374,887.68, showing an excess of receipts over expenditures of 22.341,674.29. Since that lime the receipts of no fis cal year, and with but few excep tions of no month of any fiscal year, have, exceeded the expenditures. The receipts ot the government from all sources during the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1891, were $372,802,498.29, and its expenditures S142.605.75K.87, leaving a deficit, the first time since the resumption of specie payments, of SS9,fcu.,i'ti.ot. notwithstanding theie was ft decrease Of Ht,?W,12S.78 in the ordinary expenses of the government, as compared with the previous fiscal year. Its lncume was still not sufficient 1 " '"" idtf ivr its daily necessities, and the E"M reserve in the treasury for tho redeiMi'timi of greenbacks was drawn upon i" in, t them. But this did not I suiilie, uu'l I1." i'," n ninint then re- ; ' soiled to loans to replenish the re- i aoi ve. In l'Yhi-uaiy, 11.91, $,0,000,O')0 In bunds were i.s. u d. and in Novinln r follow -i iiiK a m-ciiiid Issue of $.,0,00i 0(10 was ! deemed ess-iry.

Tii rwelnta of, (he trovernment for the fiscal year ending: June ,m, issB, were 390,378,20S.?,0. nd the expendi tures H33.178.428.48, showing a deficit of M2,806,22S.18. A further loan of $100,000, )00 was negotiated by the government In Fehninry, 1890, the sale netting Jill. 166,210, and swelling; the aggregate of bonds Issued within three years to 1262,315,400. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1896, the revenues of the gov ernment from all sources amounted to $409,476, 408.78, while Its expenditures wore $434,678,664.48, or an excess of ex penditures over receipts of $26,801,245, 70. In other words, the total receipts for the three fiscal years ending June SO, 1896, were insufficient by $137,811, 729.46 to meet the total expenditures. Nor has this condition since Im proved. For the first half of the pres ent fiscal year te receipts of the gov ernment, exclusive of postal revenues, were $167,507,603.76, and its expendi tures, exclusive of postal service, $195, 410,000.22, or an excess nf expenditures over receipts of $37,902,31)6.46. In Jan uary of this year the receipts, exclu sive of postal revenues, were $24,316, 994.05, and the expenditures, exclusive of postal service. $30,269,389.29, a deficit I uf $5,952,395.24 for the month. In Feb ruary of this year the receipts, exclu- I slve of postal revenues, were $24,400,- I 997,38, and expenditures, exclusive of postal service, $28,796,056.66, a deficit of $4,395,059.28, or a total deficiency of $186,061,680.44 for the three years and eight months ending March 1, 1897. Not only are we without a surplus In the treasury, lut with an increase in the i public debt there has been a corre- j spondlng increase In the annual in- terest charge from $22,893,883.20 in 1892, i the lowest of any year since 1862, to $34,387,297.60 in 1896, or an increase of' f 11,493.414. 10, It may be ursed that even If the rev- enues of the government had been suf- flclent to meet all Its ordinary expenses 1 during tne past three years the gold j reserve would still have been insuf ficient to meet the demands upon it, and that bonds would necesarily have been issued for its repletion. Be this as It may, it la clearly manifest, with out denying or affirming the correct ness of such a conclusion, that the debt would have been decreased In at least the amount ot the deficiency and business confidence immeasurably strengthened throughout the country Congress should promtly correct the existing condition. Ample revenues must be supplied not only for the or dinary expenses of the government, but for the prompt payment of liberal pensions and the liquidation of the principal and interest of the public debt. In raising revenue duties should be so levied upon foreign products aa to preserye the home market, so far as possible, to our own producers; to re vive the manufactories; to relieve and encourage agriculture; to Increase our domestic and foreign commerce; to aid and develop mining and building, and to render to labor In every field of use ful occupation the liberal wages and adequate rewards to which skill and Industry are justly entitled. The ne cessity ot the pasage of a tariff law wlii oil shall provide ample revenue neeVi not btr farther urged. The to perattve demand of the hour Is the prompt enactment of such a measure, and to this object I earnestly recom mend that congress shall make every endeavor. Before other business la. transacted let us first provide sufficient revenue to faithfully administer the government without the contracting of further debt or the continued disturb ance of our finances.
