Solicitor-General Aldrlch's Opinion on the Power of the Secretary of the Treasury to Issue Bonds. The first postmaster given office under the new administration ia Newton A. Hamilton, who waa appointed postmas ter at Flora, Tenn. BecreUry Morton haa appointed Don ald Maccuaig of Nebraska City, Neb., chief clerk of the Agricultural Depart ment, vice Henry Oasaam resigned. All the promlnentofficialt of the Treas ury Department, inclnding the Assistant BecreUry," Commissioners of Internal Revenue, Comptrollers and all the Aud itors, except Patterson and Fisher, have verbally tendered BecreUry Carlisle their resignations. BecreUry Carlisle haa accepted the proposition of the Denver clearing bouse to let the government have $1,000,000 In gold for a Tike amount of treasury notes. He has token no steps toward issuing bonds, and haa not indicated what pol icy he will purine. In the case of CapUin Pharos B. Bra baker of North Dakota, imprisoned in Spanish Honduraa, the President has transmitted to the Senate in compliance with iu resolution ot the 3d instant a report from BecreUry Greeham giving all the information in the department relative to the case. The papers show that Secretary Foster September 30 tele graphed Minister Pacheco to look into the matter. October 16 Pacheco for warded a telegram from Secretary of War Alvarado ot Honduras, saying Brubaker waa one of those who took up arms against the government and captured TruxilloJune 26. When the uprising was put down, Brnbaker was captured and tried under the Honduras laws and sentenced to seven years' imprisonment, which be it now undergoing at Ouroa. President Cleveland the other morn ing eent to the Senate a message with drawing the Hswai.au treaty pending in the Senate. The message was short, simply requesting the Senate to trans mit 10 the Execntive the proposed treaty with Hawaii. The message was received without comment on the floor of the Senate. The Republican Senators re gard this action a in line with the course pursued by Cleveland in withdrawing the Nicaraguan treaty, sent to the Senate by President Arthur in the closing days of his administration. The Democratic Senators look upon the act from a two fold point of view, some tak ng the ground tbat it shows Cleveland is against annexation or American domination of any tort in the Hawaiian Islands, while others hold he will send in another treaty more to his liking. Holman, Chairman of the House Com mittee, in the remarks which he is pre paring for publication in the Congret tional Record concerning the appropria tions of the Fifty-aecond Congress shows the appropriations of the eesaion just closed amonnt to $619,221,861. From thia point of view the appropriations of the F'f'y-firat Congress aggregated 11, 036,680.921, and thoseof ti e Fi'tv-econd Congress amount to $1,026,822X2-, or $8,862,870 less than thoae of the Fifty first Congress. Holman will present statemenUof the appropriations made by the Fifty-tecond Congress as charged against it under permanent approp-ia-tions in accordance with the require ments of lawa enacted by the Fifty-first Congress. Tbeee include turns aggre gating in all $164,172,040. Judge Hol man sUtet, if these sppropriations had not been made aa required, the total ap propriation of the Filty-second Congress would show a reduction of more than $163,000,000 than the appropriations of the Fifty-first Congress. Some time ago, when the question of the power of the Secretary of the Treas ury to use any part of the $100,000,000 gold reserve was under consideration, Solicitor-General Aldrich was instructed by the Attorney-General to look up the matter. Aldrich'a opinion in brief is : "First, the BecreUry of the Treasury baa a continuing power to iasua bonds to redeem the legal tender of 1862 and 1863 and reissued under the act of May '81, 1-878, but I am of the opinion it ia not at all necessary. Second, there it no re quirement for the redemption of the legal tender to be made in gold. As to the policy of using silver I am not pre pared to urge thia action. It might cause a panic, but it could undoubtedly be done. Third, the Secretary of the Treas ury haa no power to issue bonds redeem able in either gold or silver. The law stipulates they ahall be redeemed in com, which means either gold or silver now, and did so mean at the time of the pass age of the law." Thia opinion, while aaked and prepared, was not delivered, owing to the fact that the occasion did not demand it. Aldrich aaya: "The belief that there it no positive provision of law requiring $100,000,000 reserve shall he kept is in my opinion correct. It ia also true under the law, aa I under stand it, that all legal-tender notes may be redeemed in coin. This was the rase at the pericd fixed for the resumption of specie payments, to-wit, January, 1879, under the law of 1876." ' To guard against a deficit Henderson warn this administration to give closer attention to "moonshiners" and the "whisky ring" in the collecting of in ternal revenue than it did from 1885 to 1889, when it collected $51,0P0.62S less than President Arthur and $115,358,543 less than President Harrison. He savs the retiring administration paid $296, 316.1131 on the public deht, saving in in terest $55,852,493 annually. He ouched on pensions, showing that the pens'on bureau rolls will reach their highest point December 81, 1894. with 1,161,918 name on the rolls, including invalids, widows, orphans and dependent parents, the annual vain of the rolls at that date being $165,865,094; that in 1?9 there will be dropped from the rolls 44,9X2 pensioners, with an increasing ratio thereafter. Referring to the comp'aint against widows' pensions, he shows, if all the widows' claims yet nndiepo'el of were allowed, there would be 7(9,834 dead soldiers unrepresented on the tolls by widows, orphans or dependent par ent. He a' bo points ont the danger to the treasurv from war claims, and says Congress now has the dau to show that about $6 0,0'iO.OiH) mav yet "he drawn from it to Batisfv their demands. Hen derson refers to the defeat of the bank rupt bill In the Honse, the lurial of the pure-food bill, the slaughter of the anti option MP, Congress inability to grap ple with the money question, ita silent admiration of the McKinlev bill, and prediota that the Fifty-aecond Congresa will go down to history as the '' know nothing " and " do-nothing " Congresa.
