service, amounts 10 $b,133,OJ3 Is, being
less 10y yG63, 2l0 GA than the sum APP
propriated ON the same account for the
previous year.
THE PENSIONS,
At the close OF the last fiscal year,
June 30, 1894, there were 969, Oh per
sons on our pension rolls, being a ne
increase OF 1852 over the number re-
ported at the end OF the previous year.
These pensioners may be classified as
follows: Soldiers and sailors, survivors
OF all wars, 753 96S; widows, and
relatives OF deceased soldiers, 2l5, 1852 =;
army nurses in the war OF the rebellion,
Ala.
OF these pensioners, 81, 030 are suryiy-
ing soldiers OF the Indian and other wars
prior to the late civil war, and the wild
ows and relatives of such soldiers. The
remainder, numbering 937 ,5O5, are re-
ceiving pensions on account OF the war
of the rebellion, and OF these, 400, 3li are
on the rolls under the authority OF the
act of June 81, 1890, sometimes called
the dependent pension law.
The total amount expended Tor pen
sions during the year was Sl39, SO4, LOS,
leaving an unexpended balance from the
sum appropriated of $25, POS, 7l2,65. The
sum necessary TO meet pension eXpendl-
lures for the year ending June 80, 1896,
is estimated at $40 600 600.

I conclude this communication, fully
approaching that the responsibility for

prosperity and welfare Of our country.

The secretary OF agriculture in his re-
port, reviews the operations OF his de
partment for the last fiscal year, and
makes recommendations for the further
extension of its usefulness. He reports
a saving in the expenditure during the
year of 5000 600, which is covered back
into the treasury. This sum is % per
cent of the entire appropriation. A
special study has been made of the de-
mand for American farm products IN
all foreign markets, and especially
Great Britain. That country received
from the United States during the nine
months, ending September 30, 1894,
800 go live beef cattle, valued at 500
100000 as against 49,, 61l cattle valued
at 1864 600, during the same
period Tor 1898. During the first
six months of 1894, the United King
dom took also ll2,000 600 pounds of
/ dressed beef from the United States,
valued at nearly $40, 000,0 600. The re-
/ port shows that during the nine months
Immediately preceding September 30,
| 1871 the United States exported to
Great Britain 222 $4,000 pounds OF
pork; of apples, 100000, valued at
| 81, 500 000 and of horses, 1881, at an
average value of $l89 per head. There
/ was a falling off in American exports OF
wheat OF 3,5000 600 bushels, and the
secretary is inclined to believe that
wheat may not, in the future, be the
staple export cereal product OF our
country, but that corn will continue to
advance in importance as an export on
account OF the new uses to which it is
constantly appropriated.
The exports OF agricultural products
| from the United States for the fiscal
year, ending June so, 1894, amounted to
$628, 1888, O38, being r. 28 per cent of the
American exports of every description,
and the United Kingdom OF Great
Britain took more than 81 per cent of

SECRETARY cARLrsLE's PLAN.

This condition cannot be Immediately
reached, but as a step in that direction
and as means of securing more elias
tic currency and obviating other objec-
tiOns to the present arrangement OF bank
circulation, the secretary OF the treasury
presents in his report scheme modify
ing the present banking laws and pro-
yiding for the issue of circulating notes
by state banks free from taxation, under
certain limitations. The secretary eX-
plains his plan so plainly, and its adj
vantages are developed by him with
such remarkable clearness, that
any effort on my part to present
argument in its support would
be supenluous. | shall, therefore, con-
tent myself with an unqualified indorse-
ment of the secretary's proposed changes
in the law and brief and an imperfect
statement of their prominent features.
II is proposed to repeal all laws proyld-
ing for the deposit of United States
bonds as security for circulation; to per-
nit national banks to issue circulating
notes not exceeding in amount 70 per
cent of their paid-up and unimpaired
capital, provided they deposit with the
government as a guarantee fund in
United States legal tender notes, includ-
ing treasury notes Ol loJU, sum VI
equal amount to 80 per cent OF the notes
they desire to issue; this deposit to be
maintained at all times, but whenever
any bank retires any part of its circula-
ton a prOportionate part OF its
guarantee fund shall be returned to
it; to permit the secretary OF
the treasury to prepare and keep on
hand ready for issue in case an increase
in circulation is decried, blank national
bank notes for each bank having circu
lation, and to repeal the provisions OF
the present law imposing limitations
and restrictions, thus permitting such
increase or reduction within the limit
of the 70. per cent OF capital to be
as quickly made as emergencies arise.
In addition to the guarantee fund
required it is proposed to provide a
safety fund for the immediate re-
demption of the circulating notes Of
failed banks by imposing a small an
nual tax, say one-half of l per cent
upon the average circulation Of each
bank until the fund amounts to 5 per
cent of the total circulation outstanding.

Error as to Nicaragua.
LONDON, December st is author

she could not recognize certain DEGREES
regarding land registration and other
matters which Great Britain holds with

The statement that Great Britain re-

quito coast, which Great Britain had
already acknowledged in the above mem

BUT HAS SHE MODIFIED IT?

WASHINGTON, December 3.-The sud-
denly modified attitude OF Great Britain
toward Nicaragua is attributable, in the
opinion of naval officers, solely to the
positive determination OF the United
States to maintain its announced prn-
ciples through "A mobilization of war

DISPLAYS OF THE YEAR.
During the last fiscal year there has
been an unusual and pressing demand
IN many quarters OF the world Tor the
presence OF vessels to guard American
interests. In January last, during the
Brazilian instruction, a large fleet was
concentrated i'm the harbor OF Rio de
Janeiro. The vigorous action of Rear
Admiral Benham in protecting the per-
sonal and commercial rights Of our
citizens during the disturbed conditions
afforded results which will, it is be-
heved, have lar-reaching and whole
some influence whenever, in like cir
cumstances, it may become necessary
for our naval commanders to interfere
on behalf OF our people in foreign ports
The war now in progress between
China and Japan has rendered it neces-
sary or eXpedient to dispatch eight
vessels to those waters.
THE COAST SURVEY.
Both the secretary OF the navy and
the secretary of the treasury commend
the transfer of the work OF the coast
survey proper to the navy department.
l heartily concur in this recommends
ton.
Excluding Alaska and very small
area besides, all the work of mapping
and charting our coast has been COM
pleted. The photographic work, which
must be done over and over again by
reason of the shifting and varying
depths Of water, consequent upon the
action of streams and tides, has hereto
fore been done under the direction of
the naval officers in subOrdnatiOn to
the superintendent of the coast survey.
There seems to be no good reason why
the navy should not have entire charge
hereafter Of such work, especially as
the photographic Office of the navy de-
partment is now, and has been for many
years, engaged in making efficient maps
entirely similar to those prepared by the
coast survey.
PERSONNEL OF THE LINE.
feel it my imperative duty to call at
tention to the recommendation Of the
secretary in regard to the personnel OF
the line Of the navy. The stagnation OF
promotion in this, the vital branch OF
the service, is so great as to seriously
impair its efficiency. | consider 1t OF the
most importance that the Young and
middle-aged officers should before the
eve OF retirement be permitted to reach
a grade emitting them to active and I'M
portant duty.
The system adopted a few years ago
regulating the employment Of labor at
the navy-yards is rigidIy upheld, and has
fully demonstrated its usefulness and et-
hciencv. 1t is within the domain Of civil
service reform, inasmuch as workmen

from the treasury. Thus we have an
endless chain in operation. constantly
depicting the treasury'- gold, and never
near a final rest. As il this was not bad
enough, we have by statutory declara-
ton that it is the policy OF the govern
meut 10 maintain the parity between
gold and silver, aided the force AMI mo-
mentum OF this exhausting process and
added largely to the currency obligations
claiming this peculiar gold redemption.
Our small gold reserve is thus subject to
drain from every side.
DEMANDS INCREASING.
The demands that increase our danger
also increase the necessity OF protecting
this reserve against depletion, and it is
most unsatisfactory to know that the
protection afforded is only n temporary
palliation. 1t is perfectly and palpably
plain that the only way under the
present conditions by which this re-
serve, when dangerously depleted, can
be replenished is through the issue and
sale of bonds OF the government for gold,
and vet congress has not only thus iar
declined to authorize the issue of bonds
best suited to such purpose, but there
seems a disposition in some quarters to
DENY both the necessity and power Tor
the issue of bonds at all. | cannot for
a moment believe that any of our citlz-
ems are deliberately willing that their
government should default in its pecunl-
arv obligations, or that its financial
operations should be reduced to a silver
basis. At any rate, | should not feel
that my duty was done II l
omitted any effort l could make
to avert such calamity. As
long, therefore, as no provision
is made for the final redemption or
the putting aside for the currency obi
CATION now used to repeatedly and con-
stantly draw from the government its
gold, and so long as no better authority
for bond issues is allowed than at pres
ent exists, such authority will be
utilized whenever and as often as be-
comes necessary to maintain sufficient
cold reserve and abundant to save the
credit of our country and make good the
financial declarations of our government.
Questions relating to our banks and
currency are closely connected with the
subject lust referred to, and they also
present some unsatisfactory features.
Prominent among them are the lack OF
elasticity in our currency circulation
and its frequent concentration in iinan-
cial centers when it is most needed IN
other parts OF the country. The abso-
Lutte enforcement of the government
from the business of banking is the ideal
relationship of the government to the
circulation of the currency of the
country.

society as a dandy, was known for
his curling hair, embroidered vests,
gold chains, jewelled rings and carved
ivory cane with an elaborate tassel.
After several attempts he was elect
ed to the house of commons, where he
tried to speak, and was lauShd down.
At his club and in social life he was
always prating of what he was going
to do in politics and literature.

came prime minister of Great Bri-
tain; and having taught the tory party
that they must, if they would continue
as n political factor, keep step with

he retired to rest in the house of lords
as Lord eaconsfield-honored by the
queen as her favorite prime minister,
and trusted by hundreds of Tory
squires whose ancestors had thought
it sport to pull out the teeth of Jews
He had been known in society as a
gushing young man, who wore his
heart upon his sleeve. He sat upon
the treasury, or the opposition, bench
of the house of commons with a face
as impressive as that of the Sphinx
In those days the road to parliament
and political distinction began at one
of the great schools-Eton, Harrow or
Winchester-and passed through OK
ford or Cambridge university. Dis
raeli did not travel that road. His
father intended him for Il situation in
a government office which he had OBJ
tanned for him. Having educated him
at home, he articled him to a solicitor
that he might qualify himself for
the situation.
The drudgery of Il lawyers office
was distasteful to the youth, who, hav-
ing declined to serve the GOVERNMENT
as a clerk, wrote editorials for tory
paper, and at twenty-one years of age
published his brilliant novel, Vivian
Grey.
Twenty-Five years later he was chan
cellor of the eXchequer and the leader
Of the house of commons. 1t was the
first time that a novelist had figured
as the finance minister of a great
commercial state, and it was the first
time that a son of Abraham had held
the leadership of the British house.
No great public school and neither of
the universities had aided him to rise.
Yet he had leaped over these cir
cumstances," and into one of the most
influential positions in Great Britain,
the leadership of the tory party.
