Washington, Dee. 20. The annual report of the secretary of tho treasury, Car late, was sent to congress today. It sh iws, during the first five months of tho present fiscal year.tbe expenditures of the government exceed receipts, $29,018,095. The secretary assumes the worst effect of the recent financial dis turbances aud business depression, is past, that the remainder of the year will show better results. And be esti mates the deficiency at the close of fie year at (28,000,000. To meet this, he recommends amendment of specie pay ments resumption act of 1875, to au thorize him to sell 3 per cent, bonds not exceeding $200,000,000 in amount, at not less than par, saying however, that in his opinion, only great, press ing financial emergencies would justify resorting to an Issue of bonds. He suggests bonds be issued in de nominations $25 and multiples thereof, to be sold through sub-treasuries and postoffices. In case congress should decline to follow this course he recom mends the secretary be empowered to execute obligations of the government not totta jt?$50,000,000 bearing three per cent., to be sold or circulated in payment of government obligations. He points out the necessity for the ex tention of power of the secretary to maintain a large reserve for redemp tion of United State currency. Tns secretary adds: "So long as the gov- eminent continues the uuwlse policy of keeping Its own notes outstanding to o rculate a currency and undertake to provide f r their redemption In coin on presentation, it will be In my opin ion essential for the secretary of the tretsuryto possets the means to meet suoh emergencies as one which recent ly occurred in our financial affairs. SILVKR LEGISLATION. He says the repeal of the silver pur chase act makes such a radical change In the currency policy of our govern ment that until Its efleot is more fully developed he does not consider It ad visable t recommend further specific legislation on that subject. He says a great Increase in the bank reserve in th mi.nctarv centers of our country shows conclusively that the amount of . i- ...,fli(han ' money in me country is jjic " required for the transaction of business. He finds one of the prlnolpal difficult ies the treasury to result from indis position of the public to retain silver dollars and silver cartlflcates in circula tloo.andhas sought t remedy It by Increasing the number of silver cerlifl- -,.af rfunoui nitons jew iu ' dollars, retiring the larger antwtltutiuir for them large other kln.Is of cu rency. The report thea deals at length with tarlfllaw. He aruei In favor of ad valorem dull . He also ure strong !y tni slrblllty of free raw materials, recommend, a i Increase of neJ 9r tftlliM on distilled spl'lts and addl- lonal taxes on c gars aud clgaretts, and ew meson playing cards, cosmetics, perfumerlM, legacies, succwslons, In ,mes from stocks and bonds of oorpor atlons and Joint stock companies. CHINK3 EXCUUDIU. The secretary then sys much of dlf- v CURES v RjSINGBREAST rbera "Mi'JiSSss rtlUvsd much luj tettuiy tor ruin ol the brcrt kao". &!&&.& .rtpdd.oartotli't ones and notes of Bentbyexpreu.etj'p -nS3K?ssS5, fl ii ty exp-rlenced by offlcers charged with duty of assisting In enforcement of Chinese exclusion laws, is by reason of certain practices resorted to by the utilneso coolie. UI am of the opinion that as long as our laws prohibit laud ing of Chinese laborers, the privilege of pawing through oar territory cannot bo safely granted and should at once be revoked. If this privilege Is continued it will be impossible to secure efficient execution of laws passed by congress for exclusion of Chinese laborers. PACIFIC RAILWAYS. On subject of Piclfij railways the Secretary s.iys they are now outstand ing $04,623,61! bIx per cent United 8tates bonds issued In aid of Pacific railways, Congress shimld take action at this session with respect to payment at least or $2 392,000 which will mature within the fhcal year 189-5. Some plan should be adopted which will secure ultimate payment of indebtedness to the gitvernmeut and at the same time permit companies to conduct business undur suoh limitations and restrictions nscessary to protect rights of all parties Interested In the property. It would be very unfortuuate if the government should be forced to operate these lines of railway. i Macvelgh Confirmed. Washington, ; Dec. 20. Wayne Maovelgh has been confirmed minister to Italy. !

Tho management of the Oreuon P.iclQo has been cutting off expenses yesterday and today with a sharp knife. The river service will he discontinued and all of the section crews taken off, excepting oob man to every 10 miles, who will walk the track the stenographers In the general oftlces have been dispensed with. The Port land office will be closed. All better ments aro stopped. The physical con dition of the road Is good and will stand for some time. The river service will probably be done by the Elwood. Both Messrs. Hadlevand Mulcaby say not a dollar will be spent on betterment while busi ness Is so dull. The object is to pay of! tho debt ot the present administration, which can be douo under a policy of this kind. Extensive betterment! were made, supposing the purchasers of the property would gladly pay for them. A scheme leaked out here to day that t'ol.

She Will Resume Hor flovflrn mentbyThat Title OR HAVE NOTHING TO 1)0 WITH IT. NO.JK w Highest of all in Leavening Power Latest U. S. Gov't Report Red-Hot Strnsglo Over Hawaii in Congress. London, Dec. 20. Tho Globe com menting on President Cleveland's mes sace in regard to Hiuv.ill siyn that Queen Ltlluoknlaul Intends to return to the thrnnd of Hawaii as a real queen or not to return at all. The Foid d In triguers who produced her full had bet ter make themselves scarce, for the re turn of the exile of Elba will bo noth ing to hnr return from exile. Tho peo plo of Hawaii must bo puzzled by the gyrations of their mighty protectors. Perhaps It does not matter to them whether Lilluokalanl, Cleveland or Harrison governs, provided thoyaro allowed to lie in tho auu aud do no work. Their preference, however, Is for the native queen. It is feared, though, that if the queen trusts her restoration to hor quondam subjeots It will bealougday before shoagalu rules oyer that pleasant land. IN TUB 1IOUSH. Washington, D. C, Dee. 20. Im mediately after reading the journal yes terday Cookran oflered a resolution which lie sought to present, to appoint u special committee of seven to Investi gate the alleged attempt of the last ad ministration to annex territory to the United States without consulting tho house of representatives, aud iuqulre into tho rights of tho house in the promises. The resolution had no soon er been read than a dozen inou on each side of the house rushed toward the bar of tho house crying for recognition, Boutello, meantime, was wild in at tempting to offer tho resolution to tnovo to refer the resolution to the com mltteo on ruleu nnd upon which ho de manded the previous question. The confusion was so great that tho speaker was appealed to several times for order. Finally Breckinridge made a point of order that under the rule the resolution would go to the committee on rules without motion. Tho speaker held In accordance with tho point of or der and referred the roso utlon. Breckinridge then tried to movo to go Into a committee of tne whole for consideration of the uruunt dtflcl- eney bill, but Boutello was at tho front demanding recognition for u prlvlledged resolution and the speaker was obliged to recognize him. When his resolution was read it proved to be the resolution Boutello sought to Introduce last night, declaring the prerogatives of congress had been Invaded by the policy of tho administration and declaring that the policy consistent with the spirit of the constitution and traditions of the party bow was now fully under way. Mo Creary, chairman of the foreign nflalrM committee, made tho point that tho resolution was not prlvlledged and after some sharp words from each side, Bou tells got the floor to discuss the ques tion as to whether the resolution was prlvlledged. The message the president read hero, ho said, "Indicates this country may be luvnlved in war with a frleudly power for all we know." Hildhelna loud voice. '"The arms of the United Stated may be even now pinioning with their bayonets a friendly nation with whom the mass of tho x-oplo sympathize." He heid It with the Imperative duty of congress, relunclantly recognized by tbe president, to disavow, discredit In the eyes of tho civilize I world, (Great applause on republican side, "i care not whether this policy emauates" coutlnuea B-uutelle, "from a republi can president or a dem crat usurper." The confusion that followed ihauw of tbe wo.d "usurper" completely drowu ed the rel ol the sentence. He contin ued to talk amid loud cries for order, and the speaker at last with the aid of his gavel brought the house to a stand atlll, before the geutleman from Maine had fairly launched his next phllllpkl Speaker CrWp suddeuly swept the ground from uuder him by deciding thepolutof order In accordance with the contention of McC'reary and referr ed the resolution dlrtclly to the com ujlttee on fore gu !! Irs, Routeileu;:i! Dingley theiiatt inpted to argue the question re -ting to the decision of Hi- chair, but the taker wu obdurate, aud amid ret excite- meut ordered all the gentlemen to take HHkm. aim H W ji Baking mm lOWdter ABSOLUTELY PURE his decision nnd referred tho resolu tlon to tho commlttod on forel.n af fairs. Boutello immo lintcly appealed from the decision of th cha r and Mo Creary moved to lay tho appeal on the table, which motion proyal cd, 180 to 89. During tho dabato on tho deficiency bill Chairman Wllsou, of tho w iya and means commlttej r ai with tno long looked for tarlft bill In baud and the comudtteo rose Informally to receive tho bill and roport. There wub no demonstration of aay klud, Wilson simply roportod from tho ways aud means committee, "a bi I to reduce taxation, provide rovenuo aud for other purposes." Whon tho dobato on the urgent deficiency b 1 w s renewed Woll8, of Wlscon, called lor yeai aud uaya on tho rullcao amondinent but tho members woro not anxious to goon record. Bland Immediately inaugurated n fil ibustering movement, and explained that all ho want, d wua a record making vote. "That Is Just what jou wont get" cried a dozen voices. Holman and Bland insisted that thoy wore entitled to an aye and nay vote and Balloy testi fied to the justice of tho demand, but tho houso would not agrco to it and wont on making filibustering motions, to adjourn and to take a recess, adjourn to a day certain, etc. Meantime the speaker had retired from tho chair and tho committee on rules had hold a meeting. A special order was prepared. The gag was Invoked. Catohlngs ap pearance with tho rule In hand and was greeted with loud cheers.
