MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDEXT RETURNING THE BILL TO CONGRESS WITH HIS OBJECTIONS THERETO. The President to-day sent the following mes- Sage to the House, vetoing the refunding bill: To the House of Representatives : Having considered the bill entitled “an act to facilitate the refunding of the national debt,” I am constrained to return it to the House of Representatives, in which it originated, with the following statement of my objections to its passage: The imperative necessity for prompt action and the re of public duties in this closing week 01 term of oitice compel me to refrain from any attempt to make a full and satisfactory presentation of the objections to the bill The importance of the passage at the Present session of Congress of a suitable meas- ure for the refunding of the national debt which is about to mature, is generally recog- nized. It has been urged upon the attention of Congress by the Secretary of the Treasury and in my last annual message. If sucoesstully accomplished, it will secure a large decrease in the annual interest payment of the nation, and I earnestly recommend if the bill before me shall fail that another measure for this purpose be adopted before the present Congress ad- jJourns. While in my opinion 1t would be wise to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury, in his discretion, to offer to the public bonds bearing 3% per cent. interest in aid of refunding [ should not deem it my duty to in- lerpose my constitutional objection to the pas- sage of the present bill if it did not contain in its fitth section provisions, whieh, in my judg- ment, serlously impair the value, ‘and tend to the destruction of the present national banking system of the country. This system has now been In operation aimost twenty years. No safer or more beneficial banking system was ever established. Its advantages as a business are free to all who have the neces- sary capital It furnishes a currency to the country which for conventence and the security of the bill-holder has probably never been equaled by that of any other bank- ipgsystem. Its notes are secured by the de- pet with the government of the interest-bear- ing bonds of the United States. The section of the bil! before me which relates to the national banking system, and to which objection ts Made, is not an essential part of a refunding measure. It Is as follows: “Sec. 5.rom and after the 1st day of July, Assi, the 3 per cent. bonds authorized by tae first section of this act shall be the only bonds receivable as securtiy for nadional bank cireu- lation or as security for the safe-keeping and prompt payment of the public money depos- ited with such bank: but when apy such bonds deposited for the purpos: afore- Said shall be designal for purchase or redemption by the Secretary of the Treasury, the banking #Ssociation depositing the same shall bave the right to substitute other issues of the bonds of the United States in liew thereof: Provided, That no bond upon which Interest has ceased shall be accepted or coa Unued on Geposit as security for circulation, or for the safe keey ing of the public money, and in case bends so deposited shall not be with- drawn as provided at will wituin thirty days after interest has ceased thereon, the banking association depositing the same shall be sub- Ject to the Mabilities and proceedings on the part of tbe controller provided forin section 5234 of the Rev! Statutes of the United States. And — provided __ further that section four of the act of June 2oth, 1874, enutled, ‘An act fixing the amount of United States notes, providing for a redistribu- Uon of the national bank currency and for other purposes be, and the same 1s hereby, re- peated, and sections 5159 and 5169, of the vised Statutes be, and the same are hereby, re- enacted.” Under this section it is obvious that no addl- tional banks will hereafter be organized except, possibly, in a few cities or localities where the prevailing rates of Interest in ordinary bust- hess are extremely low. No new banks can be organized or no increase of the capital of exist- ing banks can be obtained except by the pur- ebase and deposit of three per cent bonds, No other bonds of the United States can be used for the purpose. The one thousand miillons of other bonds recently issued by the United States, and bearing a higher rate of interest than three per cent, and therefore a better security for the bill-holder cannot, atier the Ist of July next, be recelvyed a3 security for bank circulation. This is a radical change in the banking law. It takes from the bank3 the right they bave heretofore had under the law lo purchase and depostt as securliy for their circulation any of these bonds issued United.States, and deprives the bill-bo! the best security which the bauks are abie to give, by requiring them to deposit bonds having he least yalue of any bonds tssued by the government. The average rate of taxation of capital employed in banklag 1s more than double the rate of taxation upon capital employed in other lezitimate business. Under these circumstanc the banking law so as to deprive the advantsge of securing thelr notes by the bonds issued by the govern- 3 t | ment will, ivis believed In a large part of the country, ‘be a practical proibition of the organizing of new banks to prevent the extst- ing banks from enlarging their capital. The national banking system, if continued at all, will be a monopoly in the hands of those already engaged in it, who may purchase goy- erbment bonds bearing a more favorable rate of interest than the three per cent. bond prior to next July. jo prevent the further organization of bauks ts to putin jeopardy the whole system by taking from it that feature which makes it as it now 18a banking system free upon the same terms to all who wish to engage init. Even the existing banks will be in danger of belag diiven trom business by the additional disaavantages to which they will be subjected by this bill In short, I cannot but regard the fifth section of the bill as a step in the direction of the destruction of the national banking system. Our country, after along period of business depression, “has just entered upon a career of wnexampled prosperity.. The ; withdrawal of the currency from circulation by the national banks, and the enforced wind- } Ing BRE the banks tn consequence, would in- evitably bring serious embarrassments and disaster to the business of the country. Banks of issue are essential instruments of modern commerce, If the present efficient and admir- able system of banking is broken down, it will inevitably be followed by a recurrence toother and Inferior methods of banking. Any measure looking to such a result will be a disturbing element in our financial system. It will de- Stroy confidence and surely check the growing Prosperity of the country. Belleving that a measure for refunding the nattonal debi is not necessarily connected with the national banking law, and that any refunding act will defeat its own object tf it imperilled the na- Uonal banking system or seriously tmpatred its usefulness; and convinced that sectton 5 of the bill before me would, if it should become a law, work great harm, I herewith return the bill to the House of Kepresentatives for that further consideration which 1s provided for tn the constitution. — RUPHERFORD B, Hayes, Executive Mansion, M: GEN.

'THE PRESIDENT and the members of the Cab- inet—Judge French acting Secretary of the ‘Treasury—Wwill go to the Capitol to-morrow to act onsuch bills as may be presented to him for bis consideration, BEFORE THE INAUGURATION, Immense Crowd in the City. SIGHT-SBERS AT THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS. The crowd in the city 1s immense. The hotels are filled, It is impossible to get rooms now at any of the leading hosteiries. Boarding houses have plenty of guests. Many private familes are taking care of the strangers, for a consider- ation—they have no lack of patronage. The streets of Washington are so wide that a big crowd does not seem near so large as in less favored cities, But the streets have a crowded appearance now. The best places to gauge the crowd are those points where the sight-secr naturally turns his steps. All the public bulid- ings were crowded. The demand to go through the Treasury vaults became so great That Treas- urer Gilfillan bad to shut down on that privi- Jege altogether. Through the corridors of the ublic buildings poured streams of human ings, The uniforms of soldiery were well represented. Ladies, perhaps, predomtnated. It 1s noticeable that not very many children are among the visitors. It was a very sensible thing to leave them at nome. CALLING ON THE PRESIDENT. The Mecca of all callers was the White House. Visitors couid only be allowed in the east room down stairs and in the President’s office. There Was a Jam every where they could go except in the President’s oftice, in whitch only a comfort- able detachment was allowed at a time. The stairs were often impassable for five or six minutes, owing to the mixture of the down- gotng and up-coming throngs. But they man- aged to extricate themselves somehow and the stream went on, The President stood near the door which opens from his ofice to that of his private secretary. The crowds came through iis room, shook hands with htm and passed out by the door near which he stood. His visitors cclomenced calling at 9 o'clock this morning. From that hour until after 12 he stood and took the onslaught of the national handshaker. About half-past 12 no more were admitted to his room. Hits Cabinet had arrived at the house and the last meeting of that body went into session. Exclamatious of wonder and surprise at the fittings of the east room were heard from the crowd, As the men came out of the President's cflice nine out of ten remarked that “he 100k3 just like bis picture,” The ladies generally ob- served “how nice he was.” CROWD OF SPECTATORS AT THE CAPITOL TO-DAY. ‘The Capitol was literally jammed to-day in every corridor, gallery and floor. It was easy to see that the visitors were strangers, bent on Seeing all the Capitol contained. When a crowd ‘would press forward for entrance into the mar- ble rooms, committee rooms, etc., of the Senate and the messengers on guard would inform them re could not enter, they could not under- stand it. Protests would be made by menand They thought the Capitol was public , and that the people might certainly enjoy the privilege of seeing it. One old gentlemen bad "fout” through the Mexican war and the rebellion; he had never been to the Capitol before, and if he was to be met at every turn with “pesky fellers @ talking of hin that he couldn't go thar, and he couldn’t here darned tf he thought this was a free country.” He couldn't understand that in the last days of a session of Congress, with business pressing, some portions of the Capitol had to be reserved for legislation. The citizen soldiery were ccnspicuous among the visitors. Uniforms bright in color and gorgeous in trim- mings could be seen in every direction. OTHER POINTS OF INTEREST. The Patent Office was fourth in the order of attraction for the crowd. It was first the White House, then the Capitol, then the Treas- ury; then the Patent Office, and then the new State, War and Navy department building. The Corcoran Gallery was by no means over- looked. Some of the most pairlotic went down to get rnearer view of the Washington monu- ment, but they did not crowd that vicinity. ‘The lunch houses in the neighborhood of the ‘Treasury were overrun. Prices were not put oP on the hungry, which is greatly to the credit of the lunch servers, . THE ARRANGEMENTS SATISFACTORY JO GENERAL GARFIELD. ‘The spectal Senate committee on inaugural arrangements, consisting of Senators Pendie- ton, Bayard and Anthony, watted on General Garfield yesterday and acqualnted him with the program adopted. The Prestdent-clect expressed bis satisfaction with the arrange ments. PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE LAST NIGHT presented a brilliant spectacle, particularly as the escort to Gen. Sheridan passed up that thoroughfare. The Avenue was {lumtnuated with "gas, electric lights and calcium llzhts, while the explosion of numerous colored tire balls gave a novel effect to the decorated bulli- ings. The sidewalis were crowded with thou sands ot strangers. Many whowent to the Capl ol, expecting a night session were disappointed, but consoled themselves by the maguiticent view from the terraces of the thousands of lights in the city, which, with the brliliant group of planets In the western sky, made up a scene long to be remembered. Arrivals of Organizations and Dis- linguished Visitors. Maj. Gen. Hancock 1s expected to arrive as we go to press by the limited train from New York, and the Light Infantry are out to re- ceive him and a detachment of the Distric= Artillery was stationed on the mall, at the sug- gestion of Col. Corbin, to fire a major general’s salute. On the Baltimore and Ohio railroad the trains froin the west are run in two and often three sections to-day, and were packed full. In the Baltimore and Potomac depot the trains all come in loaded down. It is remarked that the B. and O. express, as well as the Adams and the freight trains on all the roads, have been heavily taxed in the last few days with work, especially from the west, and the question was asked to-day whether it’ did not indicate that Insny of the strangers meant to stay some weeks at least. The 9th Pennsylvania regiment, Col. G. M. Reynolds, Lieut. Col. M.J. Keck, Major .. Bennet, Adjutant A.D, Moore; and the 13th Pennsylvania regiment from Seranton, Col. H. M. Boies, Lieut. Col. F. L. ditehcock, Major E. R. Rtpple, Adjutant R. MacMillan, both ar- rived to-day. As they marched up the Avenue with their uniforms of army Diue, regulation pattern, several remarks were made to tie effect that the regulars had better look to their marching to-morrow. Both regiments are beaded by full bands and number about 600 men. ‘The 2d Pennsylvania brigade arrived about noon on special trains, They numbered about 1.500 men, and made a superb appear- ance. They were immediately marched to their quarters—the hew Schuetzen Park butld- ing on the 7th street road.
