Something lWMUnt sad Effective,
Washington, Nov. 14— There is an
undercurrent of gossip In administra¬
tion circles that the president is manur¬
ing at Woodley a greater surprise for
the oountry than his famous tariff mes¬
sage of 1887 gave it. Since his return
from Buzzard's Bay, Ur. Cleveland has
devoted his time almost exclusively to
an exhaustive study of the financial
condition of the government. He has
had prepared special gold reports on the fluc¬
tuation of the reserve for years
back, the causes of withdrawals for ex-
port, the distribution of the gold obli¬
gations and the power of the treasury
under existing law to replenish the gold
supply. It is believed that this data
wnl be used in his forthcoming message
to congress and made the basis of some
Strong recommendation for legislation
that the will provide better safeguards for
It treasury. iB understood that the
lieves firmly that the landslide president be¬
of last
week meant a repudiation of the wild¬
cat currency schemes of the Populists
and silver theorists, and that he is con¬
vinced that the Democratic party, to be¬
come again triumphant, must declare
its opposition to all plans of inflation.
The defeat of Bland and the overwhelm¬
ing defeat of the Populists in the west
dence are interpreted by tne president of the as evi¬
that no section country
favors a depreciated currency or a de¬
pleted treasury.
The president since the election has
talked In this strain with members of
$ cabinet. It is said on high author-
that two secretaries from the south
have argued that unless some conces¬
sions are made to silver there is grave
danger of the that 'dargaaizat a new party, springing the south out
old organizations in
and west, will will become beci a threatening
factor in national legislation. Mr.
no party which vacillates on the financial
question can win in any seotion.
These conferences, together with the
fact that the president has looked care¬
fully led into the treasury’s condition, have
to the belief that his coming mes¬
sage will be largely devoted to the sub¬
ject will of be finance. The tariff, Mr. it is Cleveland thought,
subordinated.
may emphasize the demand for tariff
reduction in the interest of American
consumers, and doubtless will comment
on the benefits which the new tariff
will confer on the American people.
Convinced that the gold reserve should
be protected from invasion, the presi¬
dent, it is said, is also convinced that
bond issues are only a temporary expe¬
dient. The government realised only
188,000,000 net gold from the February
issue, and if a f100,000,000 loan were
floated within the next few weeks, the
gold obligations would not be decreased
and it would still be possible to drain
the gold thus acquired. Mi Mr. Cleveland
thinks that some ne permane: nt scheme few
retaining the gold shooli should be devised,
and “ it is probable ‘ ible that that in he will recom¬
mend that congress take some action
ing looking beyond to one. The president is look¬
hopes this administration, and
to see the Democratic party the adopt
some fidence policy of the that will command con¬
country when the govern¬
ment bonds are retired in 1904 After
that date there will be outstanding only
the |26,000,000 of 2 per oents, which
can be used as a basis for national bank
circulation.
The February loan will expire in 1904,
and if a loan is negotiated during the
present month it will b« retired in the
same year. If national bank circula¬
tion is to be stopped what will the Dem¬
ocratic party offer as a substitute ? If
national banks are to be retained, how
is their circulation to be secured? Mr.
Cleveland, it is understood, thinks that
the time has come for the Democratic
party to declare its policy on this sub¬
ject. it If is the dear Democratic him that party the does Repub¬ not
do so, to
lican party wilL
Mr. Cleveland is on reoord In favor of
according adequate some recognition to silver if
vouchsafed, protection for the treasury is
and it is possible that he
will make some recommendation that
will have the effect of conciliating the
silver element in the Democratic party.
