If not actually connived at b ]

on foreign ml slonnry stations , causing much
destruction of property and Attended with
personal Injuries as neil as lot * of life. Al <
though lint one American cltlmi was re
ported to have been actually wounded , and
although the destruction of property may
have fallen more heavily upon the mission
aries of otlrer nationalities than our own , It
plainly behooves this government to take the
most prompt and decided notion to guard
gainst similar or perhaps more dreadful
cnlamltl'S befalling the hundred * of Ameri
can mission stations which have grown up
throughout the Interior of China under the
temperate rule of toleration , custom and Im
perial edict.
DEMAND FOR JUSTICE COMPLIED WITH
The demands of the United States and
other powers for the degradation and punish
ment of the responsible officials of the re
spective cities nnd provinces , who , by neg
lect or otherwise , had permitted uprisings ,
and for the adoption of stern mearurcs by
the emperor's government for the protection
of the life and property of foreigners , were
followed by the disgrace anil dismissal of
certain provincial officials found derelict In
duty and the punishment by death of a
number of those adjudged guilty of partlclpa-
lion In the outrages. This government In
sisted that a special American commission
Bhould visit the province where the first dis
PHI turbances occurred for the purpose of Inves
tigation. This latter commission , formed
after much opposition , has gone overland
from Tlen-Tsln , accompanied by a suitable
Chinese escort , nnd by Its demonstration of
the readiness and ability of our government
to protect Hi citizens will act , It Is believed ,
as a most Influential deterrent of any similar
outbreaks. The energetic steps wo have thus
taken are all tlie more likely to result In
future safety to our citizens In China be
cause the Imperial government Is , I am per
suaded , entirely convinced that wo seek
only the liberty and protection of our own
citizens and redress for any wrongs they may
liavo suffered , and that we have no ulterior
dcOgns or objects , political or otherwise.
Chlnn will not forget cither our kindly service
to her citizens during her lalo war , nor the
further fact that , while furnishing all the
facilities at our command to further the nego
tiation of a peace between her and Japan , we
sought no advantages and interposed no
counsel.
The governments of both China and Japan
have. In special dl'patchca transmitted
.through their respective diplomatic repre
sentatives , expressed In a most pleasing man
ner their grateful appreciation of our assist
ance to their citizens during the unhappy
struggle and of the value of our aid In pav-
ln the way to their resumption of peaceful
relations.
ON THE WALLER INCIDENT.
The customary cordhl relations between
this country and France have been undis
turbed , with the exception that a full ex
planation of the treatment of John L. Waller
by the expeditionary military authorities of
France still remains to be given. Mr. Waller ,
formerly United States consul at Tamatave ,
remained In Madagascar after his term of
olllco expired , and was apparently success
ful In procuring business concessions from
the Ilovas of greater or less value. After the
occupation of Tamatave and the declaration
of martini law by the French he was ar
rested upon various charges , among them
that at communicating military Information
to the enemies of France , was tried and con
victed by a military tribunal , nnd sentenced
to twenty yeaars' Imprisonment. Following
the course justified by abundant precedents ,
this government requested from that of
France the record of the proceedings of the
French tribunal which resulted In Mr. Wal
ler's condemnation. This request has been
compiled with to the extent of supplying a
copy of the olllclnl record , from which appear
the constitution and organization of the court ,
the charges us formulated and the general
coursa nnd result of the trial , and by which
it Is shown that the accused was tried In
open court and was defended by counsel. But
the evidence adduced In support of the
chirges which was not received by the
French minister for foreign affairs till the
first week in October has thus far been
withheld , the French government taking the
ground that Its production In response to our
demand would establish a bad prec
edent. The efforts of our ambas
sador to procure It , however , though
Impeded by recent change * In the French
ministry , have not been relaxed and It Is con
fidently expected that nome satisfactory >
lutlon of the matter will shortly bo reached.
Meanwhile It appears that Mr , Waller's con
finement hat every alleviation which the
state of his health and all the other circum
stances of the case demand or permit.
In agreeable contract to the difference
above noted , respecting a matter of common
concern , where nothing Is sought except such
a mutually satisfactory outcome as the true
merits of the case require , Is the recent resolution
elution of the French Chambers favoring the
conclusion of a permanent treaty of arbi
trations between the two countries. An In-
vltatlcn has been extended by France to the
government and people of the United States
to participate In a great International expo
sition at Paris In 1900 as a uj I table com
memoration of the close of this , the world's
marvelous century of progress. I heartily
recommend Its acceptance , together with
such leg.slnllon as will adequately provide
for a dus representation of this government
and Its people on the occasion.
WANTS rilEB TRADE.
Our relations with the states of the German
empire are. In some aspects , typical of a con
dition of th'ngs elsewhere found In countries
whose productions and trade .ire similar to
our own. The close rivalries of competing In
dustries ; the Influence of the delusive doc
trine that Uie Internal development of a
nation Is promoted % and Us wealth Increased
by a policy uhlch , In 'indertnklng to reserve -
servo Its. home markets or the exclusive use
of lt own producers , necessarily obstruct ! )
their Rales In foreign markets nnd prevents
free access to the products of the world ; the
desire to retain trade In time-worn ruts , re
gardless of the Inexorable laws of new nseds
and changed conditions of demand and sup
ply , and our own halting tardiness In Inviting
a freer exchange of commodities , and by this
means Imperiling our footing In the external
markets naturally open to us , have created
a situation somewhat Injurious to American
export Interests , not only In Germany , where
they are , perhaps , most noticeable , but In
adjacent countries. The exports affected are
largely American cattle and other food
products , the reason assigned for unfavorable
discrimination being that their consumption
Is deleterious to the public health. This Is all
the more Irritating In view of the fact that no
European state Is as Jealous of the excellence
and wholesomeness of Its exported food sup
plies as the United States , nor so easily able
on account of Inherent soundness to guaran
tee those qualities. Nor are these difficulties
confined to our food products designed for
exportation. Our great Insurance companies ,
for example , having built up a vast business
abroad and invested a large shareof their
gains in foreign countries , In compliance with
the local laws and regulations then exist
ing , now flnd themselves within a narrowing
circle of onerous and unforeseen conditions
and are confronted by the necessity of re
tirement from a field thus made unprofitable ,
f. Indeed , they are not summarily expelled ,
as yome of them hav ? lately been from
Prussia.
MUST HAVE RETALIATION.
It Is not to b ? forgotten that International
trade cinnot be one-sided. Its currents are
alternating , and Its movements should bo
lonestly reciprocal. Without this it almost
uwssarlly degenerates into a device to gain
advantage or a contrivance to secure bane-
Its with only the semblance of a return. In
our dealings with other nations we ought
, o bo open-handed and scrupulously fair.
This should be our policy as a producing
nation , and It jlalnly becomes us as a people
vho love generosity nnd the moral
aspect of national good faith and reciprocal
orbearance. These considerations should
lot , however , constrain us to submit to un-
alr discrimination , nor to silently acquiesce
u vexatious hindrances to the enjoyment of
our share of the legitimate advantages of
> roper trade relations. If an examination of
he situation suggests such measures on our
lart us would Involve restrictions similar to
hose from which we suffered , tbe way to
uch a coursa Is easy. It should , however ,
> y no means be lightly entere-J upon , since
he necessity for the inauguration of such a
lollcy would be regretted by the best sentl-
nent of our people , and because it naturally
and logically might lead to consequences of
he gravest character.
I take pleasure In calling to your attention
the encomiums bestowed on those vessels of
our new navy which t'rfok part Jn the notable
ceramony of the opening of the Kiel canal ,

JANGLES WITH JOHN HULL.
Our relations with Great llrltnln , nhvays In
tlnmte nnd Important , have demanded durlni
the past year even n greater share of con
sldcratlon than Is usual , Several vexation
questions were left undetermined by the de
clslon of the liering sea arbitration tribunal
The application of thfr principles laid down bj
that august body IMS not been followed by tin
results they were Intended to accomplish
cither because the principles themselves lackei
In breadth and deflnltcness , or because thcli
exscutlon has been more or less Imperfect
Mucli correspondence has bcn exchanged be
twcen the two governments on the subject o
preventing the exterminating shughtcr ol
seals. The Insufficiency of British pitrol ol
Herlng sen. under the regulations agreed
on by the two governments , lias been pointed
out , nnd yet only two Ilrltlsh ships have
been on police duty during this season In
those waters. The need of a more effective
enforcement of existing regulations , as well
ns the adoption of such addi
tional regulations as experience has
shown to be absolutely necessary
to carry out the Intent of the awards , have
been earnestly urged upon the Ilrltlsh gov
eminent , but thus far without effective re
sults. In the meantime the depletion of the
seal herds by means of peliglc hunting has
so alarmingly progresrol that unless theli
slaughter Is at once effectively checked thcli
extinction within ft few ypars seems to bt
a tnatlsr of absolute certainty.
The understanding by which the United
States was to pay , and Oreit Urltaln to re
ceive , a lump Bum of $125,000 In full settle
ment of all British claims for damages aris
ing from our seizure of IlrltlBh sealing ves-
pels , unauthorized under th ? award of the
Paris tribunal of arbitration , wns not con
firmed by the last congress , which declined to
make the necessary appropriation. 1 am
still of the opinion that this arrangement was
n judicious and advantageous one fct
the government , ntid I earnestly
recommend that It bo again con
sidered nnd rarctluned. If , however , this does
not meet with the favor of congress , It cer
tainly will hardly dissent from the proposi
tion that the government Is bound by every
consideration of honor and good faith to pro
vide for the speedy adjustment of these
claims by arbitration ns the only other alter
native. A trenty of arbitration has therefore
been agreed upon , and will be Immediately
laid before the senate , so that In one of the
modes suggested a dual settlement may b3
reached.
Notwithstanding that Great. Britain orig
inated the proposal to enforce International
rules for the prevention of collisions at sen ,
based on the recommendations of the mari
time conference of Washington , and concurred
In , suggesting March 1 , 1895 , as the date to
bo set by proclamation for carrying these
rules Into general effect , her majesty's govern
ment having encountered opposition on the
part of British shipping Interests , announced
Its Inability to accept that date , which was con
sequently cancelled. The entire matter Is
still In abeyance , without prospect of a better
condition In the near future.
SOMK BOUNDARY DISPUTES.
The commissioners appointed to mark the
International boundary In Passamaquody bay ,
according to the description 'of the treaty of
Client , have not yet fully agreed.
The completion of the preliminary survey
of that Alaskan boundary , which follows the
contour of the coast from the southernmost
pjint of Prince of Wales Island until It
strikes the Hist meridian at or
near the summit of Mount St. Ellas ,
awaits further necessary appropriations ,
which ore urgently recommended. This sur
vey was undertaken under the provisions of
the convention entered Into by this country
and Great Britain , July 22 , 1S32. and the
supplementary convention of February 3 ,
1894.
1894.An
An to the remaining section of the Alaskan
boundary , which follows the 141st meridian
northwardly from Mount St. Ellas to the
frozen ocean , the settlement of which In
volves the physical location of the meridian
mentioned , no conventional agreement has
yet been made. The ascertainment of a
given meridian at a particular point Is a
work requiring much time and careful ob
servations nnd surveys. Such observations
and aarveys were undertaken by the United
S'ates"coast and geodetic survey In 1S90
and 1891 , while similar work In the same
quarters under British auspices Is believed
to give neaily coincident results , but these
surveys have been Independently conducted
and no International agreement to mark those
or any other parts of the 141st meridian by
permanent monuments has yet been made.
In the meantime the valley of the Yukon Is
becoming a highway through the hitherto un
explored wilds ef Alaska , and abundant min
eral wealth has bean discovered In that re
gion , especially at or near the junction of the
boundary meridian with the Yukon and Its'
tributaries. In ihese circumstances It Is ex-
pedisut. Indeed , Imperative , that the Jurlsdlc-
tlonal limits of the respective governments
in this new region be speedily determined.
Her Britannic majesty's government has pro
posed a joint delimitation of the 141st meri
dian by an International commission of ex
perts , which , If congress will authorize It and
make due provisions therefor , can be ac
complished with no unreasonable delay. It
is impossible to ovcilook the vital .Importance
of continuing the work already entered upon
and supplenuntlncg It by further effective
measures locking to the exact location of
this entire boundary line.
I call atUntlon to the unsatisfactory de-
llmltn Ion of ihe respective jurisdictions ot
the United States and the Dominion ol
Canada In the great hakes at the approaches
to the narrow raters that connect them
The waters In question are frequented by fish
ermen of both nationalities and their nets
are there used. Owing to the uncertain ! }
and Ignorance as to the true boundary vexa
tious disputes nnd Injurious seizures of boats
and nets by Canadian cruisers of'en occur ,
whllo any poslt.ve settlement thereof by an
acccptsd btandard Is not easily to bo reached.
A Joint commission to determine the line In
those quarters on a practical basis , by meas
ured courts following range marks on shore ,
Is u necessity for which Immediate provi
sion should be made.
INTERFERENCE FOR VENEZUELA.
It being apparent that the boundaiy dis
pute between Great Britain nnd the republic
Df Venezuela concerning the limits of British
[ 5ulaiia wa approaching an acute stage , a
Jeflnlte statement ot the Interest nnd policy
Df the United States as regards the contro
versy seemed to be required both on Its own
account and In view of Its relations with the
Erlemlly powers directly concerned. In Jul )
last , therefore , a dispatch was addressed to
mr ambassador at London for communication
to the British government In which the attl-
iido of the United States was fully r.ml dis
tinctly get forth. The general conclusions
therein reached and formulated are In sub
stance that the traditional and established
policy of this government is Ilimly opposed
to a forcible Incroasa by any European powe :
of Its territorial possessions on this continent ;
that this policy la as well founded In princi
ple as It Is strongly supported by numerous
precedents ; that as a consequence tils United
States Is bound to protect against the en
largement of the area nf Brltlih Guiana In
derogation of the rights nnd against the will
of Venezuela ; tli.1t , considering the dlsparit )
In fitrenglh of Great Britain and Venezuela ,
the territorial dltputu between them can be
roaBonably settled only by friendly , Impartial
arbitration , and that the report to such arbi
tration fchould Include tlio wholecontroversy , ,
and Is nnt txitlsfletl If one of the powers con
cerned ID permitted lo draw an arbitrary line
through tha territory In dcbale nnd to de
clare that It will uJbmlt to arbitration only
the portion lying on on" hide of It , In view
of tl > c e conclusions , the dispatch In question
called upon the British government for a
definite answer In the question whether It
would nnt fcuhmlt the territorial controversy
between Itself and Venezuela In Its entirety
to impartial arbitration. The nnswcr of the
British KO\ eminent bus not yet been rec tved ,
but Is expected shortly , when furthT com
munication on tlio subject will probably bo
made to the congrcw.
THAT UPRISING IN HAWAII.
Kaily In January last an uprising against
the government of Hawaii waa promptly sup
pressed. Mnrtl.il liw was forthwith pro
claimed and numerous arrests were made of
psrfoni susp5c | d of being In sympathy with
the royallU party. Among those were several
citizens of the United States , who were either
convicted by a military court and psntenced
to death , Imprisonment , or fine , or were de
ported without trial. The United States ,
while denying protection to tuch as hid taken
the Hawaiian oitli of alleglane ? . Insisted that
martial law , though altering the forms of
justice , could not tupereede justice tUolf , and

UKSULJ ftp PADRONE SYSTEM.
The deplffibjp lynching of several Italia :
laborers In Colorado Vas naturally follow e <
by International' representations , and I nn
happy to say that the best efforts of th
Woto In which the outrages occurred hfiV' '
been put forUi to discover and punish th
authors of this atrocious crime. The dependent

be treated through successive stages to tin
vicious padrone sjsUin , which , uncheckei
by our Immigration and contract labo
statutes , controls these workers from tin
moment of landing on our shores and farm :
them out In distant and often rude regions
where their cheapnlng competition In tin
fields of bread-winning toll brings then
Into collision with other labor Interests
While welcoming , as wo should , those wh (
seek our shores to merge themselves In 0111
body politic , nnd win personal competence
by honest effort , we cannot regard mich ns
Eomblagcs of distinctively alien laborers
hired out In tha Interests of speculators , am

of gain may/ dictate , as otherwise than re
pugnant to the spirit of our civilization
deterrent to Individual advancement , nnt'

munltios resting upon ths wholesome nnv

Japan has furnished abundant evidence ol
her vast gain In very trait nnd character
istic that constitutes a nation's greatness ,
We have reason for congratulation In the
fact that the government of the United
States , by the exchange of liberal treaty
stipulations with the new Japan , was the
first to recognize her wonderful advance , anil
to extend the consideration and confidence
duo to her national enlightenment and pro
gressive character.
BOUNDARY DISPUTE SETTLED.
The boundary dispute , which lately threat
ened to embroil Guatemala and Mexico , has
happily yielded to pacific counsels , nnd Its
determination has , by the joint agreement
of the parties , been submitted to the sole
arbitration ot the Unltul States minister to
Mexico.
The commission appointed under the con
vention of February 18 , 18S9. to set now
monuments along the boundary bstweeti the
United States and Mexico , fans completed
Its task.
As a sequel t > f the failure of a scheme for
the colonization In Mexico of negroes , mostly
emigrants from Alabama under contract , n
great number of these Iplcss and differing
people , starving and smitten with contagious
disease , made their way , or viere assisted to
the frontier , Avllere , In wretched plight , they
were quarantined by the Tsxas authorities.
Learning of their destitute condition I di
rected rations'"to be temporarily furnished
them through the War department. At the
expiration cf'lhelr' ' quarantine they were con
veyed by thi railway company , at compara
tively nominal rates , to their homes In Ala
bama , upon my assurance , In the absence of
nny fund available fo- the cost of their trans
portation , tltat I would rccomnund to con
gress an appropriation for Its payment. I
now strongly urge upon congress the pro
priety of maklngj'EUch an appropriation. It
"hotild be remembered that the measures
taken wera dictated , not only by sympathy
and humanity , but by a conviction that It
was not compatible with the dignity of this
government luat to large a body of our de
pendent cltlzsns should be thrown for relief
upon the charity of a neighboring state.
MOSQUITO TROUBLE ENDED.
In last year's massage I narrated at soirto
length jurlsd'ctlonal ' questions , then
'reshly arisen * In , the Mosquito Indian strip
ot Nicaragua. , Sluc6 that tme ) , by the volun

Ins/lead of by their own customs and icKUla-
tlons. and thus availing themselves of a
privilege secured to them by the treaty b-
Xween Nicaragua and Great Britain , of Janu
ary 28 , I860.
After this extension of uniform NIcaraguan
administration to the Mosquito strip the case
of the Brtish vice consul. Hatch , and of
several of his countrymen , who had been
summarily expelled from Nicaragua and
treated with considerable indignity , provoked
a claim by Great Britain upon Nicaragua
for pecuniary Indemnity , which , upon Nicara
gua's refusal to admit liability , was enforced
by Great Britain. While the sovereignty
and Jurisdiction of Nicaragua was In no way
quEs'loneJ by Great Britain , the former's :
arbitrary conduct In regard to British sub-
lects furnished Ih3 gr und for this procecJIng
A British naval force occupied without re
sistance the Pacific Bcaport ot Corlnto , but
was soon after withdrawn upon the promise
that the sum demanded would be paid
Throughout this Incident the k'ndly ' ofilcjs

DISAGREEMENTS WITH RUSSIA.
Correspondence- on foot touching the
liractlcD of Russian consuls vvlfhln the Juris
diction of the United States to interrogate
citizens as to tholr race and religious faith ,
uid upon ascertainment thereof to deny to
lews authentication of passports or legal
locuments for use In Russia. Inasmuch ns
men a proceeding Imposes a disability ,
which In the case of Buccesilon to property

t has elicited fitting remonstrance , the reiult

if complaint.
Tha pending claims of scaling vessels
if the United States , seized In Russian
valors remains unadjusted. Our recent
convention with Hussla , establishing a
mcdus vlvendl as to Imperial Jurisdiction
In such canes , has prevented further dlfll-
culty of this nature. The Russian gsvernment
has welcomed In principle our suggcallon for

that our situationiln ! this matter was In

COMMERCE WITH CUBA DERANGED.
Cuba Is again gravely disturbed. An In-
u'jrrectlou , In Eome respects more act've than
tbo last preceJing revolt , which continued
from 18CS to 1873 , now exists In a largo part
of tbo eastern .Interior of the Island ,
menacing even fcc.-in population ! on the
ccant. Besides deranging tin commercial
exchang s of the Uiand , of which our coun
try takes the predominant rhare , th's fla
grant court t.cn of hoGtlll lea , by arousing
sentimental synpithy pal Inciting ndventur-
ouu support among our people , has entailed
earnest tffort tn lha port of this fioveru-
incut to cnfc.-ca ol'tJlcnc ' ? to our n-utrallty
laws end o ireycnt tha territory of the
United States from being nbused n n wan
ing * ground from which to nld these In
nrms ngnlnst Spanish sovtrelRnty.
Whatever may be the traditional sympathy
nf our countrymen , na Individuals , with h
people who seem lo bo struggling for larger
autonomy nnd greater freedom , deepened ns
such sympathy naturally must bo In behalf
of our neighbors , yet the plain duty of their
government Is to observe In good faith the
recognized obligations of International re
lationship. The performance of this duty
should not bo made moro difficult by n dis
regard on the part ot our citizens ot the
obligations growing out of their nlleglnnce
to their country , which should restrain them
from violating ns Individuals the neutrality
which the nation of which they nre mem
bers Is bound to observe In Its relations to
friendly sovereign states. Though neither
the wnrmth of our people's sympathy with
the Cuban Insurgents , nor our loss and ma
terial damngo consequent upon the futile
cndcavois thus far made to reslore psnco
nnd order , nor nny shock our humane sensi
bilities may hnvo received ! from the cruelties
which appear to especially characterl/o this
singtilnary and fiercely conducted wnr , have
In the least shaken the determination of the
government to honestly fulfill every Inter
national obligation , yet It Is to be earnestly
hoped on every ground that the devastation
of nrmed conflict may speedily be stayed
nnd order nnd quiet restored to the dis
tracted Island , bringing In their train the
nctlvlty nnd thrift or pesceftil pursuits.
INTERFERENCE WITH OUR SHIPPING.
Ono notable Instance of Interference by
Spain with passing American ships ? has oc
curred. On March S last the Alllanca , whllo
bound frcm Colon to New York , nnd follow
ing the customary tracks for vessels near the
Cuban sl.ore , but outside the three-mile
limit , was llrcd upon by a Spanish gunboat.
ProtEst was promptly mndo by the United
Slates against this act as not being Justified
by n state of war , nor permissible In respEct -
spEct to vessels on the usual paths of com
merce , nor tolerable In view ot the wanton
peril occasioned to Innocent life nnd property.
The act was disavowed , with full expression
of regret nnd nssitirance of nonrecurrcnce of
such just caus ? of complaint , while the of
fending officer was relieved of his command.
Military nrrtstq of citizens ot lite United
States In Cuba have occasioned frequent rec
lamations. Where held on criminal charges
their delivery to the ordinary civil Jurisdic
tion for trial has been demanded nnd ob
tained In conformity with treaty provisions ,
and where merely detained by way of mili
tary precaution under a proclaimed state of
siege , without formulated accusation , their
release on trial hns been Insisted upon.
The right of American consular ollloers In
the Island to prefer protests and demands In
such cas-s having been questioned by the In
sular authorities , their enjolnment of the
privilege stipulated by treaty for the con
suls of Germany was claimed under the most
favored nation provision ot our own conven
tion and wao promptly recognized.
The long standing demand of Antonio Max
imo Mora against Spain has at
last been settled by the payment ,
on the J4th of September last , of
the sum originally agreed upon In liquida
tion of th ? claim. Its distribution among
the parties entitled to receive It has pro
ceeded as rapidly as the rights ot those
claiming the fund could be sifely determined.
The enforcement of differential dti les
against products of this country exported to
Cuba nnd Puerto Rico prompted the Immedi
ate claim on our part lo the benefit of the-
mlnlmum tariff of Spain In return for the
most favorable treatment permitted by our
laws as regards the products of Spanish
territories. A commercial arrangement was
concluded In January last securing the- treat
ment so claimed.
Vigorous protests against excesslv ? fines
ImpoEpd on our ships and merchandise by
the customs. ' officers of these Islands for
trivial errors have resulted In the r mlsilon
of such fines In instances where the Equity
of the complaint was apparent , though the
\e\atlous practice has not been wholly dls-
con'Inued.
PROTECTING THE MISSIONARIES.
Occuirences In Turkey have continued to
excite concern. The reported massacres of
Christians In Armenia and the development
there , and In other districts , of fanatical
hostility to C'irlstlan ' Influences naturally ex
cited apprehension for the safe'y of the de
voted men and women who , as dependents of
the foreign missionary socletlss In the United
States , reside In Turkey under the guarantee
of law and usage- and In the legitimate par-
formanco of tneir educational and religious
missions. No efforts have been spared In
their behalf , and their protection , In person
and property , has ben earnestly and vigor
ously enforced by ev-ery means within our
power.
I regret , however , that an attempt on our
part to obtain better Information concerning
the true condition of affairs In the disturbed
quarters of the Ottoman empire , by sending
thither the United States consul at Slvas to
make investigation and report , was thwarted
by the objections of the Turkish government.
This movement on our part was In no sense
meant as a gratuitous entangl = msnt of the
United States In the so-called eastern ques
tion , nor as an officious Interference with
the right and duty which belong by treaty
to certain grsat European powers , calling
for their Intervention In political niaferx1
affecting the good government and religious
freedom of the non-Mussulman subjects of
the sultan , but It arose solely from our de
sire to have nn accurate knowledge of the
conditions In our efforts to care for those
entitled to our protection.
Tlis presence of our naval vessels , which
are now In the vicinity of the disturbed
localities , affords opportunities to acquire u
measure of familiarity with tlie condition of
affalis , and will enable us to take suitable
steps for the protection of any Interests
of our countrymen within reach of our ships
that might be found Imperilled.
The Ottoman govcrnmsnt has lately Issued
an lmperl.il ItaJe , exempting forever from
taxation an American college for elrla at
Scutari. Repeated assurances have also been
obtained by our envoy at Constantinople that
similar Institutions , maintained and admin
istered by our countrymen , shall be sicured
In the enjoyment of mil rights , and that
our citizens throughout the empire shall be
protected ,
PROTECTION FOR REFUGEES.
The government , however , In view of ex
isting facts , Is far from relying upon such
assurances as the limit of Its duty. Our
minister has been vigilant and alert in af
fording nil possible protection In Individual
cases where danger tlneatencd or safsty was
Imperilled. We have sent ships as far toward
the points of actual disturbance us It Is
possible for them to go , where they offer
refuge to those obliged to lice , and wo have
the promise- other powers which have ships
in the neighborhood that our citizens , as
well as theirs , will bo received and prc-
tec'cd on board these ships , On the de
mand of our minister , orders have been
Issued by the sultan that Turkish toldiert.
snail guaru anu ehcori 10 me coast Aineiican
refugees. These orders have been carried
out , and our latest Intelligence gives nsfur-
ancj of the present personal safety of our
citizens and missionaries.
Though thus far no lives of American citi
zens liavo been sacrificed , there can be no
doubt that serious loss and destruction of
mission property have resulted from riotous
conflicts and outrageous attacks. By treaty
several of the most powerful European pow
ers have secured a right and liavo uauimed
a duty , not only In'behalf of their mvn citi
zens and In furtherance of their own Inter
ests , but as agents of ( ho Christian norld
Their right Is to enforce such conduct of
the Turkish gavrnmrnt as will restrain
fanatical brutality , and If this falls their
duty is to so Interfere- to Insure against
such dreadful occurrences Iu Turkey as have
lately shocked civilization. The powers de
clare this right and this duty to be thslrs
alone , and It Is earnjstly hoped that promp-
and effective action on their part will not
bo delayed.
The nsvv consulates nt Erzoroum and Khar-
put , for which approprlillon was made last
wislon , liavo been provls'onally filled by
trusted employes of the Department of State
Thes ? appolntets , though now In Turkey , have
not yet rec'lved their exequaturs.
The arbitration of the claim of the Ven
ezuela Steam Transportation company , under
the treaty of January 19 , 1892 , btwon the
United States and Venezuela , resulted In an
award In favor of the claimant.
The government has uicd Ita good offices
toward composing the differences between
Venezuela on th : one hand and Francs and
Belgium on the other , growing qut of the
dtsmlioal of the representatives ot those
poweraon the ground of a publication deemed
offensive to Venezuela. Although that dU-
mlesil wai coupled with a cordial request
that other more peraonally agroaable envoy *
ha sent In ttiolr irtead , a rupture of Inter
course ensued end still continues.
IMPROVED CONSULAR SERVICE.
In view of the growth of our IntertsU In
foreign countries , and the encouraging pros-
pectu for a genera ) expansion of our com
merce , the question of an Improvement In
the consular nerrlco U Increased In Important !
nnd urgency. Though there Is no doubt thai
the great body of consular officers nre render.
InK vnlimblo services' to the trade- and Indus
tries of the country , the needs of some pi in
of appointment nnd control which would tend
to necuro ft higher average of efficiency can
not bo denied.
The Importance ot the subject hns led the
executive to consider what ntcps might prop
erly bo tnkcn without additional Ic-gHillcn
to answer the need of n beller system of con
sular appointments. The mnttci 1m Ing been
committed to the consideration of the secre
tary of state , In pursuance of his rccomm"iula-
tlons nn executive order was Issued on the
20th of September , ISO. , by the terms of
which It Is provided that after tint dnto nny
vacancy In a consulate or commercial ag > ncy ,
with an annual salary or conipcnaillon from
offichl fees of not morp than $2,500 or less
than $1.000 , should be filled either by transfer
or promotion from some other position under
the Department ot Stntf , of n charncter tendIng -
Ing to qualify them for the portion lo be
filled , or by the appointment of n permit not
under the Department of State , but hiving
previously served thereunder and having
shown his capacity ami fitness for consular
duty , or by the appointment of n person who ,
having been selected by the president nndwnt
to n board of examination , < < < found , upon
such examination , to be qualified for the posi
tion. Posts which pay less than $1,000 being
usuilly , on account of their small compensa
tion , filled by selection front residents of the
locality , It vvns nol deemed practicable to
put them under the new svsteni. The com
pensation of $2,600 was adopted as the maxi
mum limit In tha classification , for the rca-
pjn that consular officers receiving moro than
that sum nro often charged with functions
and duties scarcely Inferior In dignity and Im
portance to the 3 ot diplomatic agents , and It
was therefor ? thought best to continue their
selection In the discretion of the executive ,
without subjecting them to examination be
fore a board. Excluding seventy-one places ,
with compensation nt present less than $1,000 ,
nnd fifty-three phcss above the maximum In
compensation , the number of positions re
maining within the t-copo of the order Is 19C.
This number will undoubtedly be Increased by
the Inclusion of consular ofllcTs whoso re
muneration In fees , now less than $1,000 , will
be augmented with the growth of our foreign
commerce nnd a return to more favorable
business conditions.
EXAMINING BOARD DESIGNATED.
In execution of the executive order referred
to the secretary of state has designated as a
board to conduct the prescribed examinations
the third assistant secretary of stale , the
solicitor of the Department ot State and the
chief of the consular bureau , and has speci
fied the subjects to which such examlmtlons
shsll relate.
It Is not assumed that this system will
prove a full measure of consular reform.
It Is quite probable that actual experience will
show particulars In which the order already
Issued may bo amended and demonstrate
that for the beat results appropriate legisla
tion by congress Is Imperatively required
In nny event these efforts to Improve , the
consular service ought to be Immediately sup
plemented by legislation providing for con
sular Inspection. This has frequently been
a subject of executive recommendation , and I
again urge such action by congress as will
permit the frequent and thorough Inspection
of consulates by officers appointed for that
purpose , or by person ? already In the diplo
matic or consular service. The expense at
tending such n plan would be Insignificant
compared with its usefulness , nnd I hope the
legislation necessary to set It on foot will
be speedily forthcoming.
I am thoroughly convinced that In addi
tion to their salaries our ambassadors and
ministers at foreign courts should \ > i provided
by the government with olHclal residences.
The salaries of these officers are compara
tively small and In most case ? insufficient to
pay , with other necessary expenses , the cost
of maintaining household establishments In
Keeping with their important and delicate
functions. The usefulness of a nation's
diplomatic icpresentative undeniably depjnd
much upon the appropriateness of his sur
roundings , and a country like ours , whllo
avoiding unnecessary glitter and show , should
be certain that it does not suffer In Its re
lations with foreign nations through paial-
mony and shabblnsss In Its diplomatic outfit
These constderat'ons and tha other advantages
of having fixed und somewhat permanent
locations for embassies would abundantly Jus
tify the moderate expendltura necessary to
carry out this biiggestlon.

As wo turn from a review of our for
eign relations to the contemplation of our
national financial situation we are Immedi
ately aware that we approach a subject of
domestic concern more Important than
any other that can engage our attention and
one at present In such a perplexing and deli
cate predicament as to requho prompt and
whe treatment. We may well bo encour
aged to eat neat effort In this direction when
we recall th ? steps already taken toward
Improving our economic and financial situa
tion , and when we appreciate how well the
way has been prepared for further progress
by an .iroused and Intalllgent popular Interest
In these subjects.
By command of lip peopl3 a oust ms rovenit'
system dtslgncd for the pro action and benefit
of favored clashes at thei expense ot the gtent
mass of our countrymen , and which , vvhll
Inefficient for the purpoao of levenuo , cur
tailed our trade iclatlons and Impeded our
entrance to the markets of the world , has
been superseded by a tailff policy which In
principle Is bjsd upon n denial of the right
ot the government to obstruct Ilia avenues to
our people's cheap living , or less ° n their
comfort and contentment for the fake of
according espeol.il advantages to favorites ,
and which , while encouraging cur Intercourse
and trade with other nations , recognizes the
fact that Amerlcin self-reliance , thrift and
li.genulty can build up our country's Indus
tries nnd develop Its resources more burely
than enervating paternalism.
The compulsory purchase and coinage of
silver by the government , unchecked nnd un
regulated by business conditions , nnd heed
less of our currency needs , which for more
than fifteen years diluted our circulating me
dium , undermined confidence abroad In our
financial stability , nnd nt last culminated In
distress and panic at home , IIJH been rfcontlj
stopped by the repeal of the laws which
forced this reckless scheme upon the country
The tilings thus accomplished , notwithstand
ing their extreme Importance and beneficent
effects , fall far short of ctirlns the monetarj
evils from which we suffer ns a result of
long Indulgsncc In lll-ndvlsd financial cx-
ncillents.
RETIREMENT OF THE GREENBACKS.
The currency denominated United Stales
notes , and commonly Known as greenback ?
was Issued In lnw volumes durlni ; the late
civil war nnd was Intended originally to
meet the exigencies of Unit purloil. It will
be seen by a rifeniuce to the dehatus In rqn-
gress at the time tin liwscrn passed nu-
thtiU'ng ' the Ir.suo of these notes that tholr
advocates declaiocl they wcr ? Intended for
cnly temporary use. and lo maH tlu cmei-
gcncy of war In almost , It tint all the laws
relating to them , romp pro IKon was made
contemplating their voluntniy or compulsory
re'lrunent ' , A large quantity of them , how
ever , were kept allo.it and mingled with the
cuiiency of the cnuntiy , so that nt the close
of the year 1871 they amounted lo $881,099-
073. Immediately after * that date , und In
January , 1875 , u law was passed piovldlni ;
for Hit reumiptlon of cpptlij p.iyments , by
which the secretary of tlio trcauuiy wao re
quired , whenever uddillrnM clftilatlunvu
Imied to national banks , In retire United
Ststea notes equal In amount lo SO p'r cent
of such adilltlorol national bink circulation
until sush notes ws-r reduced to $300,000,030
This law further provided that on and after
the 1st d y "f January , IST9 , the United
States notes then outstanding should bf redeemed -
deemed In coin , and In ord ° r to provide and
prepirn for such r-dempt'on the secretary of

pointed for the redemption nnd retirement j
of Ihrse nottn , Another statute was pasiM
forbidding their further cancellation nnd ro-
tlrcmcnt. Seine of them had , however , been l
previously redeemed and cancelled upon the
Issue of niUlltlon.il national bank circulation"
ns provided by the law of 1876 , so that the
amount outstanding nt the time of the passage -
sago of the act forbidding their further re
tirement was $34G.Cfl,01G.
NOTES MUST BE REISSUED ,
The law of 1S7S did not Hop nt distinct
prohibition , but contained In addition the fol
lowing express provision : "And when nny of
s/ild / notes may bf > redwnul or bo received
Into the treasury under nny law from any
source whatever nnd shall belong to the
United States , they shall not bo retired ,
cancelled or destroyed , but they nliall be Isi .
sued and paid out again and kept In clrculnv
tlon. " (
This was > the condition of nffnlr.s on the 1st
day of Jnnunry , 1879 , which Imj been fixed
upon four jt-ars before ns the dntp for cnler-
Ing upon the redemption nnd rillrcmcnt of
all thpso notes , nud for which such abundant
means had been provided. The government
was put In the anomalous situation of owing
to the holders of Its notts debls payable In - \
gold on demand , which could nellher bs retired - '
tired by resolving such nolcs In discharge of
obligations due the government , nor can
celled by actual pavmcnt In gold. H was
fotccd to redeem without redemption and to
pay without ncqulttnncc.
There had been Issued nnd sold $ ! > Sr > 00,000
of the bonds nuthorlzcd by the resumption
net of 1875 , the proceeds of which , togo'her
with other gold In the treasury , created u
gold fund deemed sufficient to meet the de
mands which might bo made upon It for the
redemption of the outstanding United States
notes. This ftinJ , together with such other
gold as might bo from time to time In the
treasury nvnlbblo for the- same purpose- , has
been slnco cilltd our gold reserve , and
$100.000,000 hns been regarded ns nn ado-
qualo nmount to accomplish Its object. This
fund muountcd on the 1st day of January ,
lt > 79. to $111,103,300. and though there-after
constantly lluctu.vlng , it did not fall btlow
that sum until July , , 1S92. In April , 1S93 ,
for the first time since Its establishment ,
this reserve nmountcd to less than $100,000-
000 , containing at that date only $97,011,330.
COMPLICATED THE SITUATION.
In the meantime , and In July , 1S90 , an
act had been pissed directing larger gov
ernmental monthly purchases of silver than
had been required under previous laws , and
providing that In payment for such silver
treasury notes of the United States should
bo Issued payable on demand In gold or silver
coin , nt the discretion of the secretary ot the
treasury. U wns , however , declared In the
act to be "the established policy of the
United States to maintain the two metali
on a parity with each other upon the present
lEgnl ratio , or such ratio as may he provided
by law. "
In view of this dcclarallon It was not
deemed permissible for the secretary of the
treasury to exercise the discretion in icrnu
confcrrtd upon him by refusing to pay golden
on these notes when demanded , bscauao by
such discrimination In favor of the gold dollar
lar the so-called pailty of the two metals - '
would be destroyed and grave and dangerous
consequences would be precipitated by affirm
ing or accentuating the constantly widening
disparity bo'ween the actual values under
the existing ratio.
It thus resulted that treasury notes , Issued
In payment of silver purchases under the law
jf 1890. were necessarily treated as gold obli
gations at the opllon of the holder. These
