BRYAN REVIEWS MESSAGE
OF the Observation-Disclosures Are
Against Nicaragua Canal--.No
Trial by Jury for Filipinos.

New York, Dec. o-The World this
morning publishes an article from w. j.
Bryan, from which the following are ex-
tracts:
After careful review Of the Presi
dspt's message, Mr.. Bryan ar alyzes its
chief points as follows:
PHILIPPINES =" 1t is clearly the inten
Filipinos the right of trial by jury,
striking omission from the Presidents
instructions to his commission. Corpora
tions believe we have outgrown the jury
system"
Trusts-"It seems to be easier to use
tho peoples money to subsidize large
ships which doat upon water than to
protect the people from tho e1tortion OF
corporations which are largely composed
of water
Boers-.Francs, surrounded by mon
archies, can raise her voice in behalf Of
those struggling for liberty; but our ma
ton, the greatest republic in history,
with an ocean on either side. remains
silent"
China-"He does not allude to the fact
that our own course in the Philippines
arouses the fear that We may at any time
feel ourselves called upon by destiny to
assume control of 30 much OF the empire .
"The message of the President" con-
tinues Mr.. Bryan, reports gratifying
condition 80 far a. foreign trade is con-
csrned. 1t also recognizes the import
ance of the inter. oceanic canal and offers
assurance that this nation does not ap-
prove of the dismembermsnt of China.
"The fact that tho total balance of
trade in our favor during the last four
years is very much greater tina the to-
tai increase in tho volume OF money indi-
Gates that this nation is largely indebted
to Europe. and suggests the wisdom OF
some provision which would enable the
American people to know at all times the
character and extent of their foreign in
dsbtsdness.
"The increase in tho exports of manu-
facturers shows that American labor,
though better paid than foreign labor, is
80 much more efficient that We can COM
pete successfully in the markets Of the
world oven when Handicapped by tariff
on raw materials.
"Ths reference to the canal contains
ssms Of the uncertainty injected into the
the last republican platform, and leaves
1t doubtful whether the administration
favors the Nicaragua or the Panama
route. There is widespread suspicion
that transcontinental railroads are using
one canal route to defeat the other.
ut is to be hoped that this waterway
between the two oceans may DO speedily

yIry materially lessen the value Of the
canal from q defensive stand point

Mr.. William A Lesley, general man.
ager of the Tennessee Paving Brick
Company, of Chattanooga, Tennessee,
arrived in the city yesterday for the
purpose of comforting with the city
authorities regarding the vitriied brick
pavement on Princess and Market
streets, the contract for the placing
of which has been awarded to his COM
pany. He will remain here until 3:45
o'clock this afternoon when he will
leave for his home, going by way Of
Atlanta.
During yesterday afternoon he went
in company with the city engineer and
members of the streets and wharves
committee and inspected the sections
of street on which the vitrifed brick
are to be placed.
To a membe of The Messenger staff
he said last night that he has the

1t is probable that the work will be-
gin on Market street first for the rea-
son hat the Wilmington Street Rail-
way Company desires to place new and
much heavier rails on the section of
Princess street which is to be paved
and it is expected that it will require
two or three weeks to get the new rails
here.
The chairman of the streets and
wharves committee will place an or
der at once for new granite curbing
to be used in the paving, the order to
be filled at n C. 1t is not expected
that there will be n material change
in the grade of Market street, and it
is understood that the big fountain
which stands at the corner of Front
and Market streets will be allowed to
remain.
At a special meeting OF the board of
aldermen held yesterday afternoon the
following formal unanimous action was
taken regarding the vitrified brick
pavement, to-wit.:
men:
That a vitrified brick pavement be
laid on Princess street, between curb
stones, between Front and Second
streets, and on Market street, between
curb stones, between Front and Water
streets, and that under the charter and
aclS amendatory thereto n relating
to this city, that the owners of prop
erty abutting on said streets be assess
ed each his or their proportionate part
of the costs or damages of said pave
ments, as required by law and the
provisions of the act of 1885,"
