THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE,

WASHINGTON, Jan. sl.-The following is the res.
dents message sent to the Senate to-day, relating
to the nomination Of Collector Art ur and Officer
Cornell.
To the senate-I transmit herewith the letter of
the Secretary of the Treasury CARDS suspension
of late Collector and Naval Officer of the port of
New York, with accompanying documents. In ad-
dtion thereto. respe ctiuily submit the following
observations:
The custom house at New York collects more than
two-thirds of all the customs and revenues of the
government. It's administration is a matter not on
ly of local interest merely but of great Importance
to the people of the whole country. For long pc.
riod of time it has been used to manage and control
political affairs Officers suspended by me are, and
for several years have been engaged in active per-
sonal management Of party politics in the city and
state of New York. The duties OF offices held by
them has been regarded as of subordinate impor-
lance to party work. Their offices have been con-
Quoted as part of political machinery under their
control. They have made the custom house centre
OF partisan political management The custom
house should be business Office, conducted on bus
mess principles. General james, Postmaster of
New York, writing on the subject, says, "The post
office is business institution and should be run as
such. 1t is my judgment that 1 and my subordi-
mates can do more for the party of choice by Civ
iog the people of this city good, efficient postal SER

inalions.'' The New York custom house should be
placed On the same foo ing the New York postlof-
flee, but under the suspended officers the custom
house should be of the principal poll tica agen-
cies in the state of New York.
To change iris they profess to believe they would
