President.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The President
sent to the Senate to-day message in reply
to the resolution requesting him to nego-
tate with the Emperor Of China a treaty
containing the provision that no Chinese
laborer shall enter the United States. The
President says such negotiation was COM
menced some months ago, and its progress
has been communicated to such members of
the Senate as sought information upon the
subject, and be now deems himself justified
in expressing the hope and expectation that
a treaty viii soon be concluded concerning
fine immigration of Chinese laborers, which
will meet the wants Of our people and the
appreciation of the body to which it will be
submitted for confirmation.

WASHINGTON, March s.--Secretary Fair
child, in his report submitted to Congress
early in December, estimated that the
Treasury surplus would reach $40, ,0O0, 600
by the end of the present fiscal year. 1t is
now stated at the Treasury Department
that owing TO the heavy receipts during the
past few months, the estimate then sub
mitted will prove TO be too small, and that
the surplus at the end of June, 1885, will
probably reach $4,000, 900.

NEW YORK, March S-Hubbard, Price g.
Co. say: 1.-THE market to-day has shown
more steadiness than at any time since the
commencement of the recent decline. Early
Liverpool advices indicated considerable
strength on the part of foreign markets, and
this led to an advance of to points here
at the opening. About II O'Clock rumors
came of the death of Emperor William and
a temporary depression followed, owing to
the nervousness of some weak holders of
long cotton.
HAD BEEN DISCOUNTED
1t was seen, however, that the possible
effect of this event had been pretty well dis
counted yesterday, and prices speedily inn
proved, the close being firm at the highest
point of the day and with but very little
cotton Offering for sale, except at constantly
advancing figures. The general impression
is that the liquidation of an Atlanta oper-
ator, which caused the break, has been fully
accomplished. No further failures are an
ticipated, and the atmosphere seems pretty
well cleared by the storm. Port receipts
are full, but the features Of the statistical
position have been ignored for the past few
days and will be without effect until the
market gets on more stable basis.
sPINNERs BUYING.
"A noteworthy feature Of the recent buy
ing has been the number of certificates alb
sorbed for spinners' account. Inquiry
among the brokers reveals the fact that the
spinners, both in New England and the
South, have taken advantage Of the recent
stump to protect themselves against possible
output of goods and the requirements Of
their consumption by large purchases of
contracts here. This is exceptional, and
betrays the fact that they have not been
able 10 contract for actual cotton in the

LONDON, March S.-The debate on the
motion Of Sir Walter Bartlelot (Conserva-
tive for the appointment Of royal com

military measures necessary for the protec-
tion OF the empire, was resumed in the
House tonight by Lord Randolph
Churchill. lie commenced his speech by
reminding the House that no less than 175
members were connected with the army
and navy services, and that the debate had
disclosed their absolute unanimity on one
point, namely, that, Notwithstanding the
immense increase in expenditure, the mill
tary position Of England was deplorably
bad.
THE REMEDY.
The remedy of these members was the ex-
penditure af more money, but his remedy
was reform in expenditure. Enough had
already been paid to maintain both servi-
ces ia a state of spleEdld efficiency. But
the English system was without parallel in
any other country, military men who had
been trained in the business Of arms being
subordinate TO civilians who were utterly
unframed. 1t would be just as reasonable
for the Premier t. nominate "a Chaplin
Lord Chancellor. [Laughterl
MANAGER OF THE WAR OFFICE.
A military training seemed TO disqualify
man from managing the War Office. That
must be altered. The financial control, after
the estimates are granted, ought to be
placed IN the hands of responsible officers.
English officers were made spending ami
mails instead Of, like the German officers,
rivaling one another in economy. The
stores for German regiment could go 10
the front on an hours notice without pro-
longed letters from the War Office. That
could not be done in England without piles
Of folios passing and repassing for several
days.

The German corps d'armee was main
tanned upon 81 800, ,0O0 as against G7, 100000

WHO BEAR THE BURDENss
The Hard, Gold Facts Which Justify
the Democratic Position.

The Hard, Gold Facts Which Justify
the Democratic Position.
From the Knoxville Tribune
This is beyond all others campaign of
facts. Party cries and party lies will not
do the work. Nothing but solid facts,
unauthorized facts. The one issue over
shadowing all others is tax reduction by
tariff revision. All others are important as
they bear upon, or are connected with
this central issue. The people most in
terested in tax reduction are those upon
whom the tax bears most heavily. Who
are they? Who bear the burdens? This
question can be most satisfactorily an
swered by showing what articles bear the
heaviest percentage OF the total duties
collected, and by whom these articles are
used
The bureau Of statistics at Washington
for twenty-one years past has compiled
statistics giving the quantity and value of
each kind oil goods imported, with the
amount of duties collected on each.
From these reports the New York Stock
holder has tabulated the percentage on
eleven articles for the past nine years.
We ask especial attention TO the table and
advise all OF our readers who desire to
know the facts to preserve the table. 1t
will be seen that the list selected embraces
articles used most commonly by all classes,
whether poor or rich. Sugar comes first;
most widely used it bears the heaviest
burden. Next comes wool-raw and
manuiactured-more widely used by the
poor, and especially by the workingmen
throughout the northern States; it bears
the next heaviest burden. Then comes
iron and steel goods-and here too, il is
the workingmen who have TO pay. The
banker and broker, Morton & Co., the
capitalists generally who dress in silks and
linen are almost entirely exempt from
these three items of taxation that make up
80 per cent OF the burden. 1t is such facts
a. these that have created the present
issue. The burdens have become too
heavy. They must be reduced. Here is
the record:

The prison mirror. [volume] (Stillwater, Minn.) 1887-1894, 1888-03-21

The Times has added to its exchange list THE
PRISON MIRROR, neat little folio edited and
published by the convicts of the Minnesota State
penitentiary at saltwater. The editor has few
advantages which us fellows outside don't possess;
for instance: If the editor whales away at some
cuss that he don't happen to like, he don't have
to keep Calling gun loaded in the Office in order
to defend his life because the fellow that he's
made so hot can't get into the Office. He isn't
troubled either, with town loafers coming in and
smoking up the editors tobacco and Juggling off
the Police Gazette and other valued exchanges
when they depart. The object of the publication
is to provide new books for the prison library.
If you will send IS cents up there they will send
it down to you for three months and you will not
only be pleased with the paper but you will also
be aiding most worthy enterprise. A good many
of us ought to be thankful enough that we have
kept out of the "pen" ourselves to aid the fellows
that are inside that much.-Nashua, Oa.) Times.

Although its advent is ushered from within the
grim prison walls of saltwater, the Prison Mirror
comes to our table this week, br ght, neat and
sprightly four column folio, and we add its X to
our exchange list with pleasure. Its motto,
Never Too Late to Mend,' is fitting and timely,
and from the general sentiment Of this child of the
unfortunate, it would seem that already the way
ward steps of the misguided lives mann ng the
staunch little craft, holding the helm hard to-
and heading to that better port where the late
ness of the hour enters not on the 'reckonngs.'
