ARMAMENTs ON TBE LAKES.
The President Transmits a Special Mes.
sage to the Senate.

The President Transmits a Special Mes
sage to the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-The president
today, in answer to resolution, trans
mitted to the senate the report of the
secretary of state on the agreement be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain concerning armaments on the
great lakes. The resolution called for
an opinion whether the arrangement of
1917 is now held to be in force. The
secretary of state says correspondence
exchanged in 1864 shows that it is so
regarded. 1t does not appear, he says,
that any British or Canadian naval ves-
sci is now, or has been for many years,
stationed on the lakes.
The report further says, however,
that it was recently learned by the
treasury department that two vessels
recently constructed by the Canadian
government at Owen sound, styled reve-
nue. cutters, are in reality capable OF
adaptation to naval purposes. Addi-
tional weight is lent to this suspect case
by the precautions taken to guard these
vessels from public inspection.
In closing, Secretary Foster says it
seems most desirable now, in view of
the long lapse of time and the vast
changes wrought, that the arrangement
now grown obsolete.in practice and sur
viving in letter only, as the declared
guarantee OF international peace. should
be modified to fit the new order Of
things and with such adaptation to the
exigencies of the future as prudence
may forecast.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

Senator Vest Makes an Impassioned
Speech-New Bills Introduced, Etc.
WASHINGTON, Dec. I'm the senate
today, after the presentation OF the
treasurer's report and the presidents
message in regard to naval establish
ments on the great lakes, Hill intro
duced bill to repeal the act of July,
1890, directing the purchase of silver
bullion. Referred to the committee on
finance.
The resolution offered yesterday by
Vest, as to alleged partisan action by
employees of the census bureau, was re-
ferred to the committee on contingent
expenses.
The joint resolution introduced yester-
day by Vest for the appointment of a
commission to make an agreement with
the Indians in Indian territory for TAX
ing lands in severalty and settling the
remainder of their lands was taken up,
and Vest made an impassicned speech.
He said the four adjacent states were
directly and Immediately concerned in
the existing condition in Indian terri
tory. The territory today is menace
to civilization. Crime is rampant and
Los Angeles herald., 1892-12-08

corruption rife. The territory today is
depot for crime. Criminals from
| adjacent states take refuge there and
from thence make raids. He instanced
the Dalton gang and referred to the fact
that come OF the Dalton brothers were
at one time deputy marshals in the ter
ritory. Vest asserted that large num-
Der OF the deputies in the territory were
taken from the lawless classes. No such
! monstrosity had ever been known in
judicial annals as the system of organ
lied plunder practiced in the United
States courts there, the whole object of
the officials being to obtain fees.
The resolution went over without &C.
ton.
The formal announcement of the
death OF Representative Mcdonald hav-
ing been announced, the senate ad-
journed.
HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
In the house, today, bill in effect re-
pealing the law which provides for the
reduction of the force of engineer off
GERS in the navy to 10 was brought to
the attention of the house. Although it
received majority vote motion to re-
consider prevented final action. The
remainder of the day was consumed in
consideration of the senate bill relative
to public printing and binding.
A bill, having for its object the es-
tabllshment of uniform revenue GUS
toms duty upon sugar and the abolish
ment OF the payment of sugar bounties,
was introduced in the house today by
Harter OF Ohio. 1t provides that after
February lst next uniform duty of
half cent a pound shall be levied on
all grades OF sugar imported. and the
payment of all bounties cease.
NEXT YEARS APPROPRIATIONS.
The statement prepared by the clerks
OF the house and senate committees on
appropriations shows that the estimates
for the regular annual and permanent
appropriations for the fiscal year 1898 4
aggregate $505, 1851 1886, an increaee over
the estimatee for the current fiscal year
OF Sl5, 1929, PAL, and over the appropria-
tioDs Exclusive of deficiencies and mis-
cellaneous) of $l7 1875, ,260. The ap-
however, included $21,-
154 ,218 for rivers and harbors, for which
no estimates were made. The appro-
prlat:ons, of course, never equal the es-
Inmates, but on the other hand, no
deficiency or miscellaneous appropria-
tons are included in the estimates.
They do not include anything for livers
and harbors, on account of which the
chief of engineers estimates that $751;
]64 $50 can be profitably expended.

MONEY.

Bradstreet's for the week ending
May IA, says:
"The decrease of about one-quarter
of the aggregate surplus reserve, ex.
hibi.ed by the bank statement of la It
Saturday, has produced no apparen.
impression upon the New York loan
market. The decline IN exchange
rates and the cessation OF gold exports
counteraot any influence from this
source, and while further outflow Of
specie later on is not considered i'm.
probable, 100000 having indeed
been engaged for Friday, the general
impression continues to be that low
interest rates will prevail for an ex.
tended period. This is IT flected in the
action of the market. The off rings
OF commercial paper of q desirable
character are too small for the demand,
city institutions taking the bulk of
the supply and leaving little for out
side buyers. The result is the crea-
ton of demand for paper of lowe,
grade, the nominal discount rates be.

CAN HIS SINCERITY BE LONGER
QUESTIONED?

/
A special dispatch from Washing
ton says:
The arrangements for the Interna-
tional Silver Conference are progress.
ing favorably, aud q large attendance
is already assured. The President 10
ia daily consultation with Secretary
Foster upon the matter, and is evi-
dencing great interest in the outcome.
1t is understood that Senators John
p. Jones of Nevada and Henry NJ.
Teller Of Colorado have been asked
to consider an invitation to represent
the United States as two Of the dele>
gates. 1t is hoped that previous bust
ness arrangements will rot prevent
their acceptance. Both the President
and Secretary Foster are exceedingly
anxious that the best equipped free
coinage men Of the country shall be
chosen to represent the United States
in q gathering. Neither Senators
Jones or Teller have been considered
IS warm friends of the Administration,
but the President believes them to be
tho ablest Senatorial representatives
of free coinage, and is anxious that
the country shall have the benefit Of
their experience.
Whatever opinion may have been
entertained concerning tho Presidents
motives or wishes on this question his
selection of Senators Jones and Teller
as delegates to the monetary confer
enoe must be admitted rs tending to
show that be is sincerely enlisted in
the cause.
The Senators named are bitterly
opposed to the President, and have
probably not spoken to him in over
two years. But they are the fore.
most leaders Of the silver cause in the
Senate, and Senator Jones is espec-
tally we'll informed on tho subject.
He spent probably 40 or 50 years of
his life in studying the question prao-
tioally AMI theoretically, and, by way
OF preparation for his famous silver
speech, must have spent over 500, 900
of his private funds in sending the
ablest specialists to be had "for love
or money" all over the world. to obtain
facts and statistics bearing upon the
subject.
Latterly Senator Stewart has some.
what come to the front in this matter;
but he i', as compared with Senator
Jones, relatively newcomer in the
Senate; and although he has cour>
ageously taken up the work where his
colleague left it, his achievements in
that line have as yet been less im-
portaut.
We repeat that the tender of an
appointment to Senators Jones and
Teller is strong proof OF the sincerity
of President Harrison on this question.
