Tho Document to ho a Notable State Ta per—Duo Attention Will lie f*al<l to Foreign Affair*, imperially Cuba and Turkey — Dutle* on Tea and Coffee May He Advocated. I The l’r« Kldrnt'* Me**age. Washington, Nov. 28.—President Cleveland has been devoting a great deal of time to his annual message during the past week, and now has it well in hand, so that it can be finished In u couple of days. It is expected to be one of the ablest public documents Mr. Cleveland has written during his two terms It will be in u sense his farewell to the American people as their chief executive and there is little doubt that he will embrace the oppor tunity to mark out the course he be lieves ought to be followed by tho national government for the mainten ance and development of the honor and prosperity of the country. Foreign affairs will naturally claim considerable attention and the Presi dent will have an opportunity to con gratulate congress and the country upon the solution of the Venezuelan boundary controversy in a manner honorable and satisfactory alike to the United States and to Great liritain and Venezuela. 'J'he condition of af fairs in Turkey will be discussed In de tail, and the President will show that tj»e ordinary diplomatic agencies have sufficed for the protection of American life and oronertv in the Turkish era. I The last paragraphs of the message to b<* written will is* those dealing with ;? 4lie situation in Cuba. He will avail i hi insclf of tlie latest po ifile informa i tion as to the military situation in the r island and the prospects for the early li 1^4'’ess or failure of the insurgents Km / have much to do with shaping his He,, policy. Present indications are that lie will make no radical rceomiiienda japijkh tions on this subject. Other foreign ■ p quest ion.-, in which the I 'nited States vr Pi are interested will be touched upon briefly. pik Secretary Carlisle is preparing data KaH^ooking to a recommendation for in s' creasing the revenue of the govern iijH meiit by imposing revenue duties on K tea and coffee and by increasing the “ internal revenue tax on beer. The President will doubtless express his approval of these recommendations. Trie financial reform recommendations qf ihc message will lie along the line % of Mr, Cleveland's former recommend ationx, and will iiave as tlieir basis the ft jdeoeacy of the single gold standard as the foundation of the monetary sys tem of the country. The retirement of tiie greenbacks and the Sherman K, notes will be recommended, so as to t4ke the government entirely out of ^ the business of issuing promissory Dotes. Hanking reform will be rec ommended at the same time, to enable the banks of the country to issue cir culating notes which will he safe und Which can be expanded or contracted In volume to meet the needs of the business of the country. Mr. Cleveland is alive to the neces sity of continuing the expansion of the navy and of constructing coast de ni femes to put the country in a condi tion to resist foreign aggression, and ttlie recommendations on these lines made by Secretaries Lament and Her bert in their annual reports will be E, seconded in the message. WAR DEPARTMENT. Secretary I.amont Reports on the Con dition of I'nclo Ham's Army. Sj„ Washington, Nov. 38.—In his an Jfe Dual report. Secretary I.amont renews |jg liis previous recommendation that the tt', infantry be reorganized on the general C. idea of three light nnd mobile bat > Hr talions of four companies each to the regiment instead of the cumbersome Hg tan company formation adopted a cen tury ago and abandoned by other uu Kt tions since the development of modern magazine rifles, and he quoted Uen erals Sberman and Sheridan and Lieu* (|B|, tenant General Schofield in support of {lie necessity of this reorganization of the infantry. The completion already of some coast defenses and the approaching completion of other modern butteries render necessary a larger force of ar tillerists, but no other increase of the army is asked for. The plan of sea Coast defense involves u hundred dis tinct batteries in over twenty harbors. Th>* number of line oflieers serving tvlth their commands is larger than ut any time since the war, and the secre tary expresses the belief thut still In It her changes can be made to ud H&tagc hi tola direction The report shows that, according to • laments of department com is, the dicipHnc of tile troops never better than now.

Occupies the Insurgents’ I’osltlons With* out A ny Serious Resist mice. Havana, Xov. 28.—General Weyler said to-day of his I’inur del Rio experi ences: ’’I went over ail the northern hills and occupied the insurgents' po sitions without any serious resistance upon the part of the enemy. Cacaera jaeara and Rubi, which the insurgents claimed were impregnable, were occu pied by our troops after dislodging the enemy. At Rubi he offered the great est resistance, but yielded nfter a few hours' fighting. We found no trace of Macro's people after that, although all the other points were rcconnoitered by small detachments from our col umns. The southerly points were also rcconnoitered and the positions where the rebels had encamped are now in possession of our troops. There remains still to be rcconnoitered the range of hills in the eastern purt of the province. Maeeo has nothing left for him to do but to scatter bis follow ers into small parties in order to en able them to escape our columns which arc now hunting for them, since they offer no rcsisteuce und refuse to ac cept a meeting with our troops, who are chasing them in all directions. I am confident of shortly pacifying i’inar del Rio, since all the strategic points are in my hands and because of the constant activity of our troops in all directions, which completely hinders the escape of the small groups of in surgents. who are now fleeing before them in disorder.” CUBANS CLAIM VICTORY. Declare That Weyler buffered Defeat In a rimer I>ol Rio Fight. New Yoke, Xov. 28.—The Cuban junta in this city claims to have re ceived full confirmation of the report that Antonio Maeeo defeated Captain (ieneral Weyler in the Rubi mountains of I’inur del Rio and the following ac count of the battle is furnished by the secretary of the junta: “General Woy ler's forces, while marching through I !><• llitlil riwdint'iinu uKmil f liirt if miles from Havana, were attacked by Maceo’s army. The charge was so sudden and played such havoc with the troops that the insurgents were able to pour several volleys into the Spanish ranks before the latter could rally and return the fire. The battle was short, sharp and desperate and General Weyler, seeing his men were fighting at a disadvantage, and were being slaughtered, ordered a retreat, leaving over 1,000 dead and taking his wounded with him. After leaving the mountains Weyler went to Artemisa, where he stopped to allow his army to rest.” _ OKLAHOMA DIVORCE FAILS Mrs. Mary Coyat of Kentucky Cnexpect e«Hy Confronted by Her Husband.

Tho hutiquct of the Home Market club at Mechanics’ hall was one of the largest in its his tory, nearly a thousand men, repre senting the industries of nearly every city and tow n in the state, living pres ent. The feature of the evening was speeches by some of the generals who toured the country in the Interest of the gold standard and hy Senator Hoar. Senator Hoar said that the Demo cratic party had been saved from itself hy Republican efforts. "The business men of New Kngland,’' lie went on, "must study the cause of what has been going on and do something that will euro the disease, which lias spread It is said tliat. while McKinley has 1.000,000 majority, a change of 25,000 votes would have given the election to his opponent. It is sad to contemplate this, and cannot tho business men of New Kngland aid tho cause of good government? Cannot they, by the weight of their integrity, regain the confidence of the West? it is not strange that when the people of the West see the accumula tion of wealth by gambling in the stock market that they should try to imitate it in a smaller manner. It is not strange, when they read the his | "'ij «'j iumiuuu i wii^u in tivn ill Mitj | West, that they should endeavor to re pudiate their debts. J call upon the business inen of New Kngland to hold i strictly to honest, business principles and regain the confidence of the peo ple of the South and West.” In the absence of General Daniel K. Sickles, three cheers were given for the old soldier, after which Ueneral liussell A. Alger of Michigan was in troduced. He closed by paying an eloquent tribute t o President Cleve land, and for the first, time in lioston, by a Republican body, three cheers were given for that official. General O. O. Howard said: “fly the election of Major McKinley you have gained an executive to your satisfac tion and will have an administration to your liking. It was a victory for sound money aguinst the forces of un rivaled state sovereignty and u victory for the executive authority of our ever reliable, ever glorious Supreme court The grand result of the cam paign has set in motion business con fidence, public and private enterprises, besides all the seeming good fellow ship and loving kindness among the whole people.” General Stewart of Pennsylvania re lated many amusing incidents of the tour of tin* generals throughout the South and West. “We corrected the mistakes of some of the men of the na tion at Appomattox, and tills year the people have corrected the mistakes by another Appomattox.” KANSAS PLURALITIES.
