The report CT the secretary of war exhib-
its several gratifying results attained dur

methods. The percentage of desertions

the past year ~ yer cent. and for the
months Of August and September. during
which time the favorable effects Of the act

pared with the same months of lss9. The
RESULTS attained by a reorganization and

secretary that adequate and regular appro-

MONEY IN CIRCULATION.

u Has Increased at the Rate of a. 80 Per
Capita in Nineteen Months.
The efforts of the secretary to increase
the volume of money i'm circulation by
keeping down the treasury surplus to the
lowest practicable limit have been unre-
mitting and in very high degree success
full. The tables presented by him SHOW ing
the increase of money in circulation during
the last two decades, and especially the
table showing the increase during the nine
teen months he has administered the af-
fairs of the department, are interesting and
instructive. The increase of money in cir
culation during the nineteen months has
been in the aggregate S:s', ,ss,;.sli. or about
Sl.O per capita. and of this increase
only x7,1OO.OJO was due to the recent
silver legislation. That this sub.

INTERIOR DEPARTMENT..
A Review Of the Work Done and the Re
suits Accom- plfshetl.

A Review of the Work Done and the RE-
suits accomplished.
The report of the secretary of the interi-
or exhibits with great fullness and clear
ness the work Of that great department,
and the satisfactory results attained. The
suggestions made by him are earnestly and
very closely commended to the considera-
tion of congress, though they cannot all be
given particular mention here. The several
acts Of congress looking to the reduction
Of the larger Indian reservations, to the
more rapid settlement Of the Indians upon
individual allotment, and the restoration
to the public domain of lands in excess Of
their needs have been largely carried into
effect. SO far as the work was cOnfided to the
executive. Agreements have been concluded
since March I. lsS.', involving the cessiOn
to the United States of about II. ~, 900
acres of land. These contracts have AZ re-
quired by law, been submitted to congress
for ratification and for the appropriations
necessary to carry them into effect. These.
with the Sisseton and Wahpeton, Sac and
Fox, Iowa, POttawatamies and Pawnees,
Shawnees and CBur dAlene tribes, have
not yet received the sanction of congress.
Attention is also called to the fact that the
appropriations made in the case of the
Sioux Indians have not covered all the
stipulated payments. They should be
promptly corrected. II sny agreement il
confirmed, all Of its terms should be COM
piled with without delay, and full sppro-
piiation should be made.
The policy outlined in my last annual
message in relation to the patentinQ Of
lands tn settlers upon the public domain
has been carried out in the administration
of the land office. No general suspicion or
emulation of fraud have been allowed to
delay the hearing and adjudication Of in
dividual cases upon their merits. The pur-
pose has been to perfect the title of the
honest settlers with such promptness that
the value of the entry might not be swal-
lowed up by the expense and extOrtions to
which delay subjected the claimant. The

CUSTOMS ADMINISTRATION.


The New Law Intended to stop Under
valuations.
The percentage of the cost of collecting
customs ievenue was less for the last fiscal
year than ever before. The customs ad-
ministration board provided for by the act
Of June 10, ls.O, was selected with great
care and is composed in part of men whose
previous experience in the administration
of the old customs regulations had made
them familiar with the evils to be remedied,
and in part of men whose legal and judicial
requirements and experience seemed to fit
them for the work of interpreting and ap-
plying the new statute. The chief
aim of the law is to secure hon
est valuation of all dutiabie merchan
disc and to make these valuations
uniform Mt all our ports of entry.
II had been made manifest by congress
sional investigation that a system of under
valuation had been long in use by certain
classes of importers. resulting not only in
great loss of revenue, but in "a most intol-
erable discrimination against honesty. II is
not seen how this legislation. when 1t is un-
derstood. can be regarded by the citizens of
any country having commercial dealing
with us as unfriendly. Any duty is sup
posed TO be excessive. Let the complaint
be lodged there. II will surely be claimed
by any well-disposed people that a remedy
may be sought and allowed Oh n system of
Quasi-smuggling.

Receipts are Noted.
The report of the postmaster gen-
eral shows the most gratifying
progress in the work committed
to his direction. The business methods
have been greatly improved. A large econ
omy in expenditures and and an increase Of
four and three quarter millions in receipts
have been realized. The deficiency this
year is s5.7s',:DO. as against 81. $40. .ls3 last
year. notwithstanding the great enlarge
ment of the service. Mail routes have been ex-
tended and quickened, and greater accuracy
and dispatch in distribution and delivery
have been attained. The report will be
found full of interest and suggestions, not
only to congress but to those thoughtful
citizens who may be interested TO know
what business method il pursued by that
department of public administration which
most nearly touches all our people. The
passage of the act to amend certain sections
of the revised statutes relating To lotteries,
approved Sept. H. 1899. has been received
with and deserved popular favor with the
postofiice department, and the department
of Justice at once entered upon the en-
forcement of the law with sympathetic
yigor. and already the public mails have
been largely freed from the fraudulent and
appeals and literature eman-
ating from the lottery companies.

ment touching the full use of silver for
coinage at a uniform ratio, care has been
taken to observe closely any change in Inc
situation abroad, and no favorable oppor-
tunity Will be lost TO promote a result
which 1t is confidently believed would CON
Ter very large benefits upon the commerce
OIL the world. The recent monetary dis
ttrbances in England are not unlikely to
suggest rec xaniination of opinions upon
this subject. Our very large .cuply of

tion IN the supposed interest of silver, give

the appointment and safe international
agreement for the free use of silver as n
coin metal and the redemption Of bonds.

SILVER COINAGE,


The Presidents Views On the Working Of
the New Act.
The act directing the purchase of silver
bullion and the issue of treasury notes
thereon. approved July II, 1880. has been
administered by the secretary of the treas
ury with an ear nest purpose to get into cir
culation, at the earliest possible date, the
full monthly amount Of treasury notes con-
templated by its provisions, aud at the
same time to give to the market for silver
bullion such support as the law contem-
plates. The recent depreciation in the
price of silver has been observed with re-
Rret. The raprid rise in price which an
ticipated and followed the passage of the
act was Influenced in some degree and was
followed by speculation. and the reaction is
part of the result of the same cause and
part Of the recent monetary disturbances.
Some months of further trial will be neces-
sary to determine the permanent effect of
the recent Legislation upon silver values,
but 1t Ii gratifying to know
that the increased circulation
secured by the act has exerted, and will
continue to exert, most beneficial in
fiuence upon business and upon the general
value. While IL has been thought best to re-

The construction and equipment Of the

new vessels have been put in commission.
and during this winter four more, includ-
ing one monitor, will be added. The con-
struction of the other vessels authorized il
being pursued both in the government and
private yards with energy, and il watched
with the most scrupulous care. The ex-
periments conducted during the year to
test the relative resisting power of armor
plates have been SO valuable as to attract
great attention in Europe. The only part
of the work upon the new ships that it
threatened by unusual delay is the srmor
plating. and every effort il being made to
reduce that to the minimum. II isa source
of congratulation that the anticipated in
f;uence of these modern vessels in the es-
prit du corps of the officers and seamen has
been realized. Confidence and pride in the
ship among the crew are equivalent to u

Laws to Justice.
The report of the attorney general is,
under the law submitted directly to con-
gress. but as the department of justice is
one Of the executive departments. some
reference to the work done is appropriate.
A vigorous, and in the main effective effort
has been made to bring 10 trial and punish
ment all violators of the law. but at the
same time care has been taken that frivo-
lous and technical ofenses should not be
used to swell the Golfers of officers or harass
the well disposed citizen. Especial atten-
tion 10 called to the prosecution of violators
Of the election laws, and of offenses against
United States officers. The number of
