The business of meat extraction in
Uruguay paid last year dividend Of
20 per cent. The gold production of
the republic was only $3S,505. The
Germans have made great inroads upon
Uruguayan trade, driving out English
competitors. Their goods are not SO
durable as the English manufactures
are, in fact, of distinctly poorer quail
ity-but they have studied the demands
of the market and met it, while the
Britishers are too conservative to
change. The Germans, however, will
be forced to prove the quality of their
goods in order to hold their own. In
cotton goods the United States is max
ing satisfactory advances. This year
has seen the largest Importation of as
riculture machinery yet recorded in
Uruguay. The consul at Montevideo
says: "Our machines have won thelf

BILE to breakage, and better suited for
the purpose intended. Intelligent

They soon afterwards met the Spanish
commissioners at Havana and San JUAN
respectively. The Porto Rico joint comlnis
sion speedily accomplished its task, ana
by October IS the evacuation OF the lsiahd

day. The administration of its affalrs mas

provide. The Cuban joint high commas
sion has not yet terminated its labors. wv
ing to the difficulties in the way of remoV-
ing the large number of Spanish troops
still in Cuba, the evacuation cannot De
completed before the 1st of January next.
The Peace Commission.
Pursuant to the fifth article of the pro-
tocol I appointed William r. Day, lately
secretary of state; Cushman X. Davis,
William P. Frye and George Gray, senator's
of the United. States and WhirelaW Reld,
to be peace commissioners on the part OF
the United States Proceeding in due
season to Paris, they there met, on the
1st Of October, five commissioners sim
ilarly appointed on the part of Spain. The
negotiations have made hopeful progress,
so that I trust soon to be able to lay
definite treaty Of peace before the senate,
with a review of the steps leading to It's
signature.
/ do not discuss at this time the govern
ment or the future Of the new possessions
which will come to us as the result of the
war with Spain. Such a discussion will
be appropriate after the treaty of peace
shall be ratified. In the meantime, and
until congress has legislated otherwise, it
will be my duty to continue the military

Relations Toward the Cubans.
AS soon as we are in possession of Cuba
and have pacif1ed the island it will DC
necessary to give aid and direction to this
people to form a government for them
selves This should be undertaken al the
earliest moment consistent with safety
and assured success. 1t is important that
our relations with these people shall be cf
the most friendly character and our COM
mercial relations close and reciprocal
1t should be our duty to assist in every
proper way to build up the waste places of
the island, encourage the industry of the
people and assist them to form a govern
ment which shall be free and independent
thus realizing the best aspirations of the
Cuban people.
Spanish rule must be replaced by a just,
benevolent and humane government ere
ated by the people of Cuba, capable of
performing all international obligations,
and which shall encourage thrift, industry
and prosperity and promote peace and
good will among all of the inhabitants,
whatever may have been their relations in
the past. Neither revenge nor passion
should have place in the new govern
ment Until there is complete tranquility
on the island and a stable government in
augurated, military occupation will be
continued

ANNEXATION OF HAWAII.
Existing Laws in Force Pending Ac-
ton by Congress.

Pending the consideration by the senate
of the treaty signed June is, 1897, by the
plenipotentiaries of the United States ana
of the republic of Hawaii, providing for
the annexation of the island, joint reso-
luton to accomplish the same purpose py
accepting the offered cession and moor
porating the ceded territory into the
Union was adopted by congress and ap-
proved July 7. 1898. thereupon directed
the United States steamer Philadelphia
to convey Rear-Admiral Miller to Homo
lulu and entrusted to his hands this inn
portant legislative act to- be delivered to
the president of the republic of HAWAII,
with whom the admiral and the United
States minister were authorized to make
appropriate arrangements for transfer
ring the sovereignty of the islands to the
United States. This was simply but i'm
pressively accomplished on August IL last,
by the delivery of a certified copy OF
the resolution to President Dole, who
thereupon yielded up to the representa-
tive of the government of the United
States the sovereignty and public prop
erty of the Hawaiian islands. Pursuant
to the terms of the joint resolution and
in exercise of authority thereby con-
ferred upon me, directed that the civil,
judicial and military powers heretofore
exercised by the officers of the govern
ment of the republic of Hawaii should
continue to be exercised by those officers
until congress should provide govern
ment for the incorporated territory, sub

and to fill vacancies. The present obi

ARMY REORGANIZATION.
Standing Force of 100000 Men Needed
Under Present Conditions.

Under the act of congress approved
April 26, 1898, authorizing the president in
his discretion, upon declaration of war
by congress or declaration by congress
that war exists, l directed the increase
of the regular army to the maximum of
$1,000, authorized in said act.
There are now in the regular army 81
1862 officers and men. In said act it was
provided: THAT at the end of any war in
which the United States may become in
volved, the army shall be reduced to
peace basis by transfer in the same
arm of the service or absorption, by pro-
motion or honorable discharge, under
such regulations as the secretary may es-
tablish, of supernumerary command Off
GERS and the honorable discharge or trans
fer of supernumerary enlisted men, and
nothing contained in this act shall be
construed as authorizing the permanent
increase Of the command of enlisted force
of the regular army beyond that now pro-
vided by the law in force prior to the
passage of this act except as to the in
crease of rs majors provided for in section
hereof
The Importance of legislation for the
permanent increase of the army is there
fore manifest, and the recommendation
of the secretary of war for that purpose
has my unqualified approval. There can
be no question that at this time and prob
ably for some time in the future 100000
men will be none too many to meet the
necessities of the situation. At all events
whether that number shall be required
permanently or not, the power should be
given to the president to enlist that force
if in his discretion it should be neces-
sary, and the further discretion should
be given him to recruit within the above
limit from the Inhabitants of the islands
with the government of which we are
charged.
Volunteers to BE Sent Home.
It is my purpose to muster out the en-
tire volunteer army as soon as congress
shall provide for the increase of the regu-
lar establishment. This viii be only an
act Of Justice. and will be much appre-
ciated by the brave men who left their
homes and employments to help the coun-
try in its emergency
