THE COMING MESSAGE.
President Cleveland Goes Into SeclusioA
 at Oak View to Prepare It.


 WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-President Csleve- land went from the executive mansion to Oak View last evening fully determined to remain at his country home until after he has completed his annual message to con- greSs, which he has not yet begun He has most of the topics we'll in hand, but he finds 1t will be utterly impossible to prepare it be- fore congress meets if he does not escape from the unavoidable interruptions which beset him at the White House Visitors at the mansion are quite as numerous as ever, but at Oak View the president will receive no visitors, and devote his time assiduously to the task before him.
 Secretary Fairchild is hard at work on his last annual report. The president is largely dependent upon the figures in this report in the treatment of the revenue question in his message. The secretary's report will show that the same surplus question still confronts the department The figures will be brought together, as before, to show the necessity of congressional action to lessen the inflow of the revenue, and the danger of further delay will be pointed out
 ''1t is quite likely, says The Star, ''that Mr. Cleveland's message will possess some of the elements of clever retort that appeared in his last fisheries message. It is generally under stood that he will stan1 up to the question
 
 beginning of this congress, and will make it the feature of the document He will not yield one jot from his position before the campaign, but he will probably make more emphatic his declaration that it is con dltion, not theory, that confronts us It Is likely that he will try to make it clear to congress that the necessity of checking the accumulation of surplus is so great that if the Democratic plan cannot carry through congress they should yield under protest to the Republican amendment rather than have no reduction of the revenue at all There will be no weakening from the former posi- tion and no confession that the popular yer dict has condemned tariff reform. Mr. Cleveland has said that he would sign any bill that should come to him making a re- duction in the revenue, whether as to tariff duties or internal taxes, unless there were something about it absolutely vicious If the senate bill should pass as it now is, it is almost certain that he would sign it-prob- ably with some remarks in explanation of his motive"

The six definite enterprises which con-
stitute the whole book of Mr.. Cleveland's

The supervision of silver coinage in order
to avert predicted financial panic;
The negotiation Of an extraditon treaty
with Great Britain;
The settlement of the fishery troubles by
the negotiation Of treaty with Great Brit
ain;
The reduction of the surplus by means
of an extensive reduction of customs du-
ties. retaining the internal revenue taxes;
The Pan Electric suit TO annul the Bell
telephone patents.
In every one of these six cases the result
OF the undertaking can be recorded in a

bees should never be visited except for the

can let them remain on their summer
stands until cool weather sets In, at which
time we should have everything in readi-
