THE message of the President to con
gress. says the Philadelphia Record, is
Disappointing. 1t is a budget Of inter
estiug recapitulatious of matters mainly
within the public knowledge; but it is
extremely barren of original recommen-
dations The President satisfies himself
with statements OF fact, leaving the in
idatiye Of legislation to congress For
the reasons in support Of such recon-
mendations as he does make the reader
of the message will have to consult the
department reports.
Full faith is given to the Blount re-
port as establishing the forcibe inter
vention of the United States in over
throwing the Hawaiian monarchy. The
obligation of the United States to undo
the wrong and restore as far rs pTactica-
ble the status before existing is distinct
~ asserted. The instructions given TO
Minister Willis are undisclosed. Ii is
reassuring to be informed, however, that
they do not go beyond the constitutional
limits of executive power. This will re
lieve apprehension lest the provisional
government at Honolulu may have been
toppIed over 10y the direct push of Uni
ted States marines. 1t is altogether pros
bable that congress will lift the blanket
covering the administration Hawaiian
policy, which the President at present
leaves undisturbed, awaiting additional
advices for data for a special message on
the subject.
On the financial question no positive
recommendation is made, except that
the President be empowered to invite
other nations to conference on the
subject of coinage when he shall deem
the time ripe for it; and that the author
ity of the secretary of the treasury to
issue bonds shall be made clear, un-
hampered by present disadvantageous
regulations as to the rate of interest and
time of maturity.
As to tariff reform, the President con-
tents himself with strong generalizations,
descending no further to particulars than
the Endorsement of the bill prepared by
the committee of ways and means. He
gives the hint that in recasting internal
revenue taxes a tax may be laid upon
incomes derived from certain corporate
Investments.

4 Coke " ar On.

PrTTsBURG, Dec. A big coke war
Is on and indications are that it will be
a fight to a finish. The fight is appar-
emily a determined and probably final
battle for supremacy between the big
operators. On December I consumers
were notified of a reduction in the price
of foundry coke from 81 90 to SI.I5 per
ton. This means, &" said the reporter :
informant, who is an extensive consum-
er, 'that somebody is going to get badly
squeezed and used up unless there is a
backdown. Coke prices are now almost
at the cost OF production, and any fur
ther cut will be a loss to the producer.
Since June furnace coke has dropped
from 81, 80 to 30, while producers
are paying wages on a S1,75 basis.
Crushed coke on cars was selling in June
at 81, 90; now it sells at 81 rs. The out
come will be watched with interest by
consumers"

In the House of Representatives on
Monday the Hon. William II. Hines, a
Democrat who represents the Twelfth
Pennsylvania district, says the New
York Sun, asked unanimous consent for
the consideration of a resolution for the
appointment of a committee of five
members to investigate the strike on
the Lehigh Valley Railroad One of
the duties of the proposed investigating
committee is to recommend legislation
for the prevention of strikes, a com
mission about as practical as an inquiry
into the feasibility of perpetual motion.
The Hon. Constantine Buckley Kilgore
of Texas put his firm objecting foot
upon Mr.. Hines : resolution, and it was
referred under the rules. Its proper
destination would be the Committee on
Ventilation and Acoustics.
The interference of Congress in dis
putes between railroads and their en-
ployees is usually impertinent and al
ways fruiteSs. Such interference gives
an opportunity for demagogues, cranks.
and agitators to air their buncombc.
produces a voluminous collection of
mostly worthless testimony, hearsay,
and opinion, costs the government a
pretty penny, and. settles nothing and
amounts to nothing. Strikes will be
stopped when human nature is changed.
or when employers are angels and the
employed perfectly satisfied. There is
no need of using the wisdom of congress
to find a remedy; and there is no sense
in having committees of congress trot-
ting about the country for the purpose
Of Illuminating differences of opinion
between employer and employed. The
practice is one of the follies committed
In the name OF the power to regulate com
merce between the states.
By consulting Mr. CleveIand's mes
sage Mr.. Hines will see that there will
be deficiency of SOS, 900, 600 for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1894. OBJ
viously this is no time for going into
unnecessary expense, but time for
good congressman to stay in Washing
ton and attend to business.

The report of Mr.. W. X. Ackerman,
treasurer of the Worlds Columbian Ex-
position, shows with all the enormous
receipts of the Fair, there will be little
or nothing go to the stockholders or to
the city of Chicago for its bonds. The
total expenditures were $50, $40, 237.
The receipts from gate money were so,
626, $50 and SO, 500, 5S1 was received
from concessions. The capital stock
yielded So 604, III and the city of Chica-
go gave 1000, 600 in bonds. The total
receipts from all sources are given at
SIS, 15l, 164. leaving a balance at the
present time of 81, ,61O, $50. But out of
this balance large number of bills
must be paid. Claims to the amount of
SI4S, l47 for salaries, etc, are in sight.
and it is more than likely that consid-
cradle additional amount will have to be
paid, leaving but a small dividend for
the stockholders.

IT appears by the report of United
States Treasurer Morgan that the total
stock of money of all kinds in the coun-
try on June so last was S2.323, 547,9
or nearly $51, ,OOO, 600 less than at the
same time last year. This contraction
was made in spite of the addition of $40, p
GOO, coo to the hoard of SILVER and an
increase of 6,00O,C coo in outstanding
bank notes. The contraction was. of
course, due to the expectation of gold.
But in July a return movement of gold
began, and this was supported by a rapid
increase of bank note circulation. BY
the end of September, however the stock
of gold was restored to its former volume.
The total increase of the effective sup
ply of currency in the three mont ms
from June 80 to September 80 was no
less than $95, ,OOO.O 900.

Clever C0unterfeiiing.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. Assistant
United States Treasurer Walters. of the
local sub treasury, to-day unearthed a
clever piece of counterfc.ting 1t is the
raising Of the denominations of green
backs by the substitution of larger fig
ures- On Saturday an apparent $50
note was received at the sub-treasurv.
and now il has been discovered that it
wa originally a SO greenback of the
1850 series. 1t is believed that the for.
gerry was committed in West Virginia,
as It was first detected in Wheeling. Mr..
Walters also stated that one dollar bills
are being raised to tens, by the same
process, and that the circulation of these
forged greenbacks is comparatively
large.

HE Democrats of the ways and
means committee have acted wisely in
deciding to take up the tariff bill on
Monday next. 1t should have the first
place on the calender and be pressed to
apassage with no unnecessary DELAY.
There is no occasion for long debate.
The whole subject has been discussed
in general and in detail, for the past SIX
years. Talk in congress will change no
members vote. The country has had
talk enough. There is no sense in ar
guing after the verdict has been rem
dered, repeated and sustained bv the
tribunal of last resort. The people have
demanded reform of the tariff. Their
mandate should be obeyed
Business has a right to know as soon
as possible what the changes are to be.
says the New York World.
The Senate Finance committee has rec
ognized the importance of despatch and
will proceed with the consideration of
the bill without waiting for its passing
by the House.
The time gained by the organization
of congress in August, which resulted in
a carefully prepared bill before the
meeting in regular session, ought to be
utilized now by vigorous pushing of
the measure to final vote.

IT must he nearly time for grown up
men, says the Philadelphia Times, to
leave off this childish talk of closing
mills and cutting wages and doing other
desperate things on account of the new
tariff
How many of these calamity strikers
have even read the Wilson bill or have
calculated just what effect it is likely to
have on their particular industry? And
what one of them all ever voluntarily
raised the wages of his employees be-
cause of an increase of duties?
1t is always the wage Garner that is to
suffer by tariff reduction; when the tar
iff Is put up, it is still the wage>earner
that must pay. The monotony of this
thing has grown tedious. The nation
has repudiated it already, and members
of congress must have even less than the
average share of sense if they can be
stampeded by any such nonsense.
This is favorable opportunity to re-
duce wages, no doubt. There are a
great many unemployed men and labor
generally rates low in the market. As
business revives it will be harder to get
the tight kind of help and employers
may have to pay more. But they will
pay just as little as they can, whether
the tariff be high or low, and they
might as well acknowledge the truth.
Where the new tariff is going to help
labor is by allowing more constant ems
ployment and an enlarged demand.
That will send wages up. But the pre-
tense that wages are ever directly regu-
lated by the rate of duties is a trans
parent mockery.
