Washington, Dec. Following is the
synopsis of the presidents message,
which, in its entirety, contains about
10000 words. The president begins with
our foreign relations, saying in
part: while our foreign relations have
not at all times during the past year
been entirely free from perplexing and
embarrassing situations, nothing re-
mains that will not yield to a spirit
Of fairness and love of justice which,
joined with consistent fairness, charac-
terize a true American policy. The out
break Of domestic hostilities in the re-
public of Brazil found the United States
alert to watch the interests of our ci-
u2ens in that country The struggle
between the established government
which controls the machinery of admin

friendly relation, and certain officers
of the navy employing the vessels of

the local insurrcction.

POSTAL AFFAIRS

THE report Of the postmaster gen
eral contains a detailed statement of
the operations of the postffice depart
ment during the last fiscal year. The
business of the mails indicates with alb
solute certainty that the condition OF
the business OF the country and tho
depression in financial affairs inevitably
and quickly reduce the postal revenues.
Therefore larger discrepancy than
usual between the postofIlce receipts
and expenditures is the expected and
unavoidable result Of the distressing
stringency which has prevailed
throughout the country during mucl

THE PENSION RoEL.

ION the 3Oth day of June, 1898, there
were on the pension rolls 9660l2 names,
an, increase of S9,944 over the number
on the rolls June SOth, 1899. The mum
ber added to the rolls during the yeal
was 12S,634 and the number dropped
was $3.50. The discovery having been
made that many names had been put
upon the pension roll by means OF
wholesale and gigantic frauds. the com
missioner suspended payments upon
number of pensions which seem to be
fraudulent or unauthorized pending
complete examination, giving notice
to the pensioners in order that they
might have an opportunity to estab
lish If possible the justice of thei
claims, Notwithstanding the apparen,
inyalidity. Thousands of neighbor-
hoods have their well-known fraudu
lent pensioners and recent develop
ments by the bureau establish appalling
conspracica to accomplish pensions
frauds. BY no means the least wrong
done is to brave and deserving pen
Gloners, who certainly ought not bt
condemned to such association. Thos
who attempt in the line of duty to rec
tlfy these wrongs should not be accused
Of enmity or indifference to the claim
of honest veterans. The sum expended
ON account of pensions for the yea
ending June SOth, 1893, was $15674O,
467ll. and the commissioner estimate
that $l65, 100000 will be required to pay
pensions during the year ending June

Mr.. Blount submitted to me his report

THE FINANCIAL QUESTION.

/
Sufficient TO meet every requirement
of our increasing population and bus
| mess III the pursuit of this object, we
should resolutely turn away from all
alluring and temporary expedients, de-
termined TO be content with nothing
less than a lasting and comprehensive
financial plan. In these circumstances
l am confident that reasonable delay
in dealing with this subject, instead of
being injurious, will increase the prob
ability Of wise action. The monetary
conference which assembled at Brus-
sells upon our invitation was adjourned
to the 30th day of November in the
present year. The considerations lust
stated and The fact that a definite prop
osition from the United States seemed
TO be expected on the reassembling of
the conference, led me to express q
willingness TO have the meeting still
further postponed. It. seems to me chat
it would be wise to give general author
lty to the president of the United States
TO invite other nations to such a con-
ference at any time when there should
be fair prospect of accomplishing an
international agreement on the subject
of coinage. l desire also to earnestly
suggest the wisdom of amending the
existing statutes in regard to the issu-
ance of government bonds. The autnor-
ity now vested in the secretary Of tine
treasury to issue bonds is not as clear
as it should be, and the bonds author
lied are disadvantageous to the gov
ernment both as to the time of their
