The object of the 1 Investigation Is to devise means to In crease the average clllclency of each employee. There Is great room for Im provement toward this end, not only iy the reorganization of bureaus and departments and lu the avoidance of duplication, but also In tho treatment 1 Um'u '" l,l,v' Pressed ihclr J''s of the Individual einplovee. uwnU '" which 1 fully concur, lu fo under the present system It constant- , v,,r r "'"MiiK ' extensive naval base ly happens that two employee lecelvo nt ,Vilrl Harbor, near Honolulu, and the same salary when tho work of one , 1101 111 "' Philippines.

It Is lin possible to mako such provision unless thcro Is adopted a plan of civil pen sions.

' "'"I one repair vessel. 1 regret to refer to the fact of the 1 discovery of extensive frauds lu tho collection of tho customs revenue, at New York city. In which a number of the subordinate employees lu (ho weighing nnd other departments were directly concerned and lu which the beneficiaries weio tlio American Sugar Itefining company and others. The frauds consisted In (he payment of du ty on underweights of sugar. Tho gov ernment has recovered from the Amer ican Sugar Helming company nil that It Is shown to have been defrauded of. Tho sum was received In full of tho anion nt due which might have been recovered by civil nctlon against the beneficiary of tho fraud, but thcro was , an excess reservation In tho contract of settlement by which tho settlement Hhould not Interfere with or prevent tho criminal prosecution of every one who was found to be subject to tho same. Criminal prosecutions nre now pro ceeding against a number of the gov ernment olllcers. Tho treasury de partment nud the department of Jus tlce nro exerting every effort to dls cover nil the wrongdoers, Including the olllcers and employees of the coiupa- nles who may have been privy to tho fraud, it would fccui to mo that an investigation of the frauds by con- grcss at present, pending tho probing ly the treasury department and tho department of Justice, as proposed, might by fivlug Immunity nnd other wlso prove nn embarrassment lu se curing con ictlou ot tho guilty parties. Maximum and Minimum Clause In Tariff Act. Two feiturc3 of tho new tnriff uct call for ipcelal reference. In order that the maximum duty shall be charg ed against the Imports from n country it Is necessary that tho executive shall find on tho part of that country not only discriminations In Its laws or the practice under them ngulnst the trade, of the United States, but thai the dis criminations found shall bo undue that Is, without good nnd fair reason. No ono Is seeking n tariff war or a con dition In which tliu spirit of retaliation shall be aroused. Tariff Readjustment. The now tnriff law enables me to ap point n tariff board to assist ino In eon- ncctlon with the department of stato In ( delay, In which case n speedy hearing the administration of the minimum und thereafter should be granted." maximum clnuse of the act and also to I recommend that In compliance with assist olllcers of the government In the j the promise thus made appropriate leg ndmlnlstrntlon of the entire law. I be- Islntlon bo adopted. .Moreover, every llevo thnt the work of this board will bo of prime utility nnd Importance whenever congress shnll deem It wise ngaln to readjust tho customs duties. If the facts scured by tho tariff board nre of such n chnracter ns to show gen erally that tho rates of duties Imposed by the present tariff luw nro exccsslvo under the principles of protection ns described In tho platform ol tho suc cessful party nt tho Into election I shall not hosltnto to Invito tho atten tion of congress to this fact nnd to the necessity for action predicated there on.

War Department. In tho Interest of Immediate econ omy I hnvo required a reduction In tuo estimates of tho war department for tbo comlotf fiscal year which brings the total estimates down to an amount forty-tiro millions less than tlio corresponding estimates for InM yenr This could he ucuunpllshcd only liy cutting off new projei ts and sus pending for the period of one year nil progress In military matters. IVr the same reason I have directed that the army shall not he recruited up to Its precnt authorised strength. These measures can hardly he more t lj.it u tcmpornry, for 1 am sure that the In terests of the nillltnry establishment are seriously In netd of careful con sldernilon by congress. The secretary of war calls attention to a number of needed changes In the army, in all of which I concur, hut the I point upon which I place most edi accoieraieu ny ine oiiecmc eiimmaiiou of 11 """'I'" proportion of the least elllclent. The military nnd naval Joint board have unanimously agreed that It would be unwise to make the large expendi tures which nt one time were contem plated In the establishment of a naval base and station lu the Philippine Is llonal prestige. It Is a regrettable fact that the higher olllcers are old for the respon stlllHIe.s of the modern navy, and the admirals do not nrrlvc at Hag rank young enough to obtain adequate train ing lu their duties us Hag olllcers. Owing to the necessity for economy lu expenditures, 1 have directed the curtailment of recommendations for 1110 Mvroiary u me nay lias Innu gunited ii tentative plan Involving cer tain changes lu the organization of tho navy department. Including the navy yards all of which have been found bv the a.loruev general to be lu ae- by the atloruey general to be lu ne- cordance with law. I have approved the execution of the plan proposed be cause of the greater clllclency nnd economy It promises. Department of Justice Expedition In Legal Procedure. The deplorable delays in tlio ndinlu Istr.ition of civil and criminal law have received the attention of committees of the American liar association nnd of many state bar associations iih well us (ho, coimldcrod thought of Judges nnd Jurists. In my Judgment, a change in public procedure, with a view to re ducing lis expense to private litigants In civil cases and facilitating (he dis patch of business and llnal decision In both civil and ' rliiilinil cases, consti tutes tho greatest need in our Ameri can liistlluilons. I do not doubt fur one moment that much of tho lawless violence anil cruelty exhibited lu lynch lugs are directly due to the uncertain- tics and Injustice growing out of the delays lu trials. Judgments and the exc- cutlous thereof by our courts, I therefore recommend legislation providing for tin- appointment by the president of a commission with author- Ity to examine the law and equity procedure of Ihe federal courts of tlrst Instance, the law of appeals from thoso courts to the courts of appeals nnd to Ihe Mipre:ie court and the costs Imposed lu such procedure upon the private litigants and upon the public treasury and make recommendation with a view to simplifying nnd ex pediting the procedure as far ns pos sible and making It as Inexpensive us may be to the litigant of little menus. The platform of the successful party in tho last election contained the following-Injunctions Without Notice. "Wo believe that the rules of proce dure in the federal courts with respect to tho Issuance of the writ of Injunc tion should be more accurately dellued by statute nud that no Injunction or temporary restraining order should be Issued without notice, except where Irreparable Injury would result from such Injunction or restraining order Issued without previous notice nud op. IKirtunlty by the defendant to be henrd should by force of the stntuto expire and bo of no effect nftor seven dnys from tho Issu.mco thereof or within any time less than that period which the court may tlx unless within such seven dnys or such less period tho In junction or order Is extended or re newed nfter previous notice nnd op portunity to bo heard. Anti-trust and Interstate Commerce Laws. The Jurisdiction or tlio general gov ernment over Interstate commerce has "- Vmw of ho so called ."Sherman nntl-trust nw" and the "In- Sherman nntl-trust Inw" and the "In tcrstnte commerce Inw" nnd Its amendments. The developments In the i operation of those laws call for n dis cussion and some suggestions ns to nmeiulinentn. These I prefer to cm body In a special message. Postoffice Department 8eond Class Mall Matter. The deficit every yenr In the post office department Is largely caused by the low rnte of postage of 1 cent n pound charged on second class mall matter, which liu hides not only news papers, but magnr.liies and miccb.i neous periodicals. Tlienclu.il loss grow ing out of the triiiiNiiiKiou of this second class mail mailer at 1 cent a pound amounts to nUuit Ji.ixhuxm u year. The average cost of ihe trans portal Ion of this matter Is more than I) cents a pound. The si a I In Us of I.mi; show that second class mall matter constituted ii.Mll per cent of the weight of all the mall and yielded only fi.10 per cent of the revenue. The figures given are startling and show the payment by the government of an enormous subsidy to the news papers, magazines and periodicals. . great saving might bo made, amount lug to much more than half of the loss, by Imposing upon magazines and peri odicals a higher rate of postage. Postal Savings Ranks. I believe postal savings banks to be necessary In order to offer n proper Inducement to thrift and saving to u great many people of small means who do not now have banking facilities and to whom such it system would offer an opportunity for the accumulation of : capital. They w ill furnish a satisfactory substitute, based on sound principle ' nnd actual successful trial lu nearly i all the countries of tho world, for the ! system of government guaranty of j deposits now being adopted In several western states which, with deference I to thoso who advocate It, seems to mo to nave in it tno seeds or iicmomiixu tlou to conservative banking nnd cer tain llnancliil dlater. Ship Subsidy. Following the course of my distin guished predecessor, I earnestly ree- i oniineud to congress the consideration and passage of n ship subsidy bill. Interior Department New Mexico nnd Arizona. The successful parly in the last elec tion In lis national platform declared In favor of (he admission as separate stales of New Mexico and Arizona, nud I recommend (hat legislation up. propiiate to this cud be adopted. Alaska. Willi respect to the territory of Ai.i ka, I recommend legislation winch shall provide for the appointment by the president of a governor and ais i of au executive count II, Ihe members of which shall during their term el olllce reside lu the territory and v. h.ih shall have legislative powers su(lnieii " ' ",, ,"uvs '"'"I'l.H to I s pre cut grouil, 1 sMom;,r I'tvcale leKlsI.ulon look.. , to enable It to give to the territory I to the elecliun of n lerriioilal litre In that vast district. Conservation of Natural Resource. In several ucpnilmcnts I here h- pre setiled the necessity for legislation looking to the further conservation of our national resources, nud the sub ject Is one of such Importance as to require a more detailed and extended discussion than can be entered upon lu this communication. I'or that ron ton I shall take an early opportunity to send a special uiessago to congress. The White Slave Trade. There Is urgent necessity for addi tional legislation and greater executive activity to suppress the recruiting ot the ranks of prostitutes from tho streams of immigration into this coun try an evil which, for want of a bet ter name, has been called "tho while slave trnde." Bureau of Health. There seems to be no reason why nil the bureaus nud olllces In the general government which have to do with tho public health or biibjects akin thereto should not bo united In n bu reau to be called the "bureau of pub He health." Political Contributions. I urgently recommend to congress that a Inw be passed requiring that candidates lu elections of members of the house of representatives and com mittees lu charge of their candidacy and campaign tile lu a proper olllce or tho United States government a state ment of the contributions received and of the expenditures Incurred In the campaign for such elections und that similar legislation be enacted lu re spect to all other elections which nre constitutionally within t tic control ot congress. Conclusion. Speaking generally, the country Is lu u high state of prosperity. There is every reason to believe that we are on the eve of a substantial business ex pansion, and we hne Just garnered u harvest unexampled lu the market val ue of our agricultural products. The high prices which such products bring mean great prosperity for the farming community! but, on the other hand, they mean a very considerably Increas ed burden upon those classes In the community whose yearly compensation does not expand with the Improvement In business and the general prosperity. Various reasons are given for the high prices. The proportionate Increase in tho output of gold, which today Is the chief medium of exchange und Is lu some respects n measure of value, fur nishes a substantial explanation of ut least part of the Increase In prices. The Increase lu population nud the more expensive mode of living of the people, which have not been nccoiu pnnlcd by a proportionate Increase lu acreage production, may furnish a fur (her reason. It Is well to note that the Increase In the cost of living Is not confined to this country, but prevails the world over, nnd thnt those who would charge Increases In prices to the existing protective tariff must meet the fact thnt the rise In prices has tnken place nlinost wholly In those products of the factory nnd firm In respect to which there hns bs?n either no Increase In the tariff or In ninn1' Instances n very considerable W tlon.
