WAsHlYGToN, December 3.-The Presi-
dents message was approved by the
Cabinet yesterday, to whom it was care
fully read, To-day manifold copies are
being made for the press. Its exact
length has not been ascertained, though
it will be considerably larger than the
Presidents previous messages. 1t can
not yet be ascertained whether it will be
sent to Congress on Monday or Tuesday.
This will depend on the time consumed
in the organization of the House and
the reception Of the notification by the
President Of the fact.
The report of the Secretary of the
Treasury on finances is in press. 1t twill
be about'the same length as previous re-
ports. The estimates, it is said, will not
exceed those Of last year. They have
not yet been printed, but copies will be
laid on the desks Of members of Con.
gress.
Monday Judge Richardson called on
Secretary Bristow.
To-day many members of Congress

Avn now comes another great expos
ure of so-called spiritual manifestations.
The Eddy brothers have been world
renowned as extraordinary mediums.
They appeared to be plain, stolid, uned-
ucated men and lived in a wild, secluded
place up in the mountains Of Vermont.
Hundreds and thousands OF people went
to visit them and we're always rewarded
by the sight of msterialized spirits, and
usually went away deeply impressed.
Large rewards we're offered to any one
who would show that the manifestations
we're deceptions. The fraud has been
kept up for years, and convinced many
a skeptic against his will. But at last a
quarrel broke out in the Eddy family
and the cheat was fully exposed. 1t was
shown that the cabinet had a sliding
door; this opened into the great chin
Dey, the inside Of which formed a secret
passage from the kitchen below and ad-
mitted four or five confederates in vari-
GUS DISCUSSES, who we're palmed of as
materialized spirits. 1t was g complete
and thorough exposure, even surprising
the Katie King affair, which crazed
Robert Dale Owen. Still people like to
be humbugged and believe in Spiritual
ism. The fools are not all dead yet.
