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.
