Cabinet ng..-President's Message.
1.-The Fishery Question.
The cabinet meeting, this afternoon, with
the exception of the ordinary routine of bust
ness, was devoted to an interchange of views
as to the character of recommendations to be
made to Congress in the Presidents annual
message, and by heads of departments in the
reports concluded. Recommendations should
be confined to suggestions for improvement
in present methods rather than extended to
requests for radical changes in the existing
laws, it being considered especially desirable
to provoke as little conflict in Congress, and
as little disturbance in business interests as
possible. The Presidents message is now in
preparation. 1t will be shorter than usual
and will contain very few recommendations
other than those comprised in the reports of
his cabinet officers. 1t is believed the only
important topic on foreign affairs will be the
reopening of the fishery question with Great
Britain, and it is understood especial atten-
will be directed to the advisabilty of legisla-
ton to authorize resumption of funding oper-
atoms
