WASHINOTOK , January 30. Secretary
Frolinghuyson has addressed to the presi
dent a communication which ho trans
mitted to the house of representatives in
$ response to resolutions asking for the
papers relating tto the oxolusion of
American hog products from foreign
countries. Ho submits to the president
copies ot all pertinent matter found of
record in the department of state , and
gives in detail the history of the exclu
sion of American moats from France ,
( icnnany , and other European countries.
In March , 1881 , the secretary says , the
# department of state prosecuted an exam
" * ination of the various phases of the pork
iiulushy in the weatorn states , which re
sulted in establishing the fact of the entire -
4 tire healthfulness of pork products.
, The facts thus elicited war
ranted the department in representing
to foreign , governments that the prejudi
cial judgment against the swine exports
of this country was ox parto and un
founded , When it was ascertained that
normally was about to issue an order for
total exclusion , the president directed tlio
imperial government , to bo informed of
his intention to appoint a commission to
examine the whole subject , and invited it
to send experts hither to act with the
commission. The invitationwas declined.
The president has since appointed the
commission then contemplated. It is
composed of a representative of the
Now York chamber of commerce , Prof.
Charles F. Chandler , a representative of
the Chic.1go board of trade , E. W.
Blatchford , and two members appointed
by the commissioner of agriculture ,
F. D. Curtis , of Now York , and Prof , p.
"E. Salmon , the whole under the chair
manship of the commissioner of agricul
ture. in point of scientific competence
and elevated impartiality the formation
of the commission peculiarly fits it for
the execution of its responsible task. To
it should belong in a great measure the
ahaping of tlio policy of this government
towards tliq pork question in its domestic
or foreign aspects. In view , therefore ,
of the prominent part which the results
reached by the pork commission mu&t
necessarily play in the further treatment
of the question by the executive or by
congress , the secretary feels it incumbent
upon him to advise that the president
recommend that congress abstain from
any immediate legislative action until the
report of the commission , soon to bo pre
sented , is before it.
The secretary further says the ques
tion to bo carefully , frankly and honestly
met , is vrhether the prepared meat pro
ducts for export from this country are
injurious to the public health. "Wo be
lieve they are not , and have so repre
sented. Should it appear that the meat
products of this country are , as wo believe -
liovo them to bo. not deleterious but
promoters of health , it is bcliovod those
friendly nations which put forth the do-
croea prohibiting the importation of
our meats would annul those decrocm.
If. howover.'iu face of the clear proof
elicited both at homo and abroad , that
our products are free from disease or
communicable germs of diseabo , proof of
which , might bo established to a demon
stration by actual inspection , as well as
supported by knowledge of the jrocau-
tionu which surround the raising and
packing industries hero , any nations with
which wo are on terms of intimacy and
amity should by legislation discriminate
against the trade of this country rather
than protect the health of their people , it
would thunhave been the province of the
executive to call the attention of such
nations to the provisions of the treaties
with confidence that thoat treaties would
bo respected. It seems very plain that
our policy in any event should bo to
prove our meat products are wholesome.
This , the absence of trichinosis in this
country , and particularly in our army
, nd navy , where our moats are constantly
used , goes far to demonstrate. Meas
ures , however , might bo taken to ascor-
Uin with abnoluto certainty , by such
means as a commission of scientists would
devise , that our moats are or can bo ren
dered innoxious.
THE OAfcB Or rORTER.
AVAHIIIHOTON , January 30. The Fitz
John Porter debate will be closed Friday
or Saturday. Last Saturday General
Slocum said during the debate that he
had in his possession original letters from
General Garfield , saying ho was in favor
of a commission , and that they will bo
produced by a republican member. It is
learned that this republican is Phelps , of
New Jeisoy , in whoso congressional dis
trict Goncr.il Porter resides , and it is
understood Porter's friends placed these
letters iu his hands together with other
now evidence of a notable character , con
tradicting some otmortions made during
the present debate. General Slocum , on
moving the previous question , will yield
to Pholptt , who will close the dobato.
Y'a METIIOPH.
Representative White , of Kentucky ,
testified before the house committee on
expenditures in the department of justice -
tico to-day with reference to his charges
against Governor Murray , of Utah , when
United States marshal of Kentucky. He
said the government had been wronged
out of thousands of dollars through un
necessary , frivolous and fictitious prose
cutions of citizens , some of whom were
take j from remote parts of the state all ,
tlio wuy to Louisville before commie
nioners , who heard their cases on pre
liminary examination apparently for no
other reason than to make tlio costs , and
thus embittering citizens against the
gwvonimont.

Mr. Sherman ( rep. 0. ) said if ho had
