The money articles of the St James Gazette said: President Cleve- 1and's message had not the beneficial ot upon stock markets which, at first sight, might have been expected from it. Al the year the market for American railroad so curities has been suffering from fear of ‘a financial crisis brought only the accumula- tion of vast sums of unemployed money in the United States treasury.

Will the tory free traders ndly explain how it will be anything else n England ! 3 The Evening News, in the course of a long pditorial, asks: *‘Is therea single protection- t in this country who would propose bamper our manufacturers by placing fmport duties on raw material?

In other words, would the 08t pronounced protectiomist in this country ut his maximum higher than or even as high 88 the maximum for which President Cleve- E’nd asks! If the policy which the' president vocates and which he so garefully defines, a policy of free traders then, sans phrase, we aro all free traders.” But, as a matter ¢f fact, all the jubilant ejaculations which the free trade organs are entering this morning are, as old Dennis said, @ heap of clotted nonsense, ited by a memberof parliament, thus argues on the messago: “Our free Rraders often lament the protectionist policy fin the United States, but it has helped more than it has injured us.. The American mer- cantile marine used to be second enly to our own. It ncurly disappeared during the civil war and has not recovereb since, prir pally because the high prices of raw ma ferials make it impossible to build shipa in the United States and run them ®s cheaply as we can. Let Americans do as the president proposes and take off the @uties on raw materials and the carrying- trade world will no longer remain ours, with ‘ out challenge. ‘Thecompetition of the United States used to be very formidable in China, ut that ccased when sho made her tariff so high. Ninety per cent of American exports pre food and raw materials, whereas the anufactures which the ‘Americans have iod 80 hard to protect do mot amount more than 10 per eent of the things hich they havenotprotected. They provide he world with the things which they protect d we leave free. They are nowhere in tho ace. Thus, with clocks, English and Gor- {man clocks are now generally pushing tho American goods out of tho market. The difforence in prices is so large that it is possi- Plo to-day to deliver some of these goods in fmnrim with the 30 per cent duty and veight, cheaper than American goods. This s dus to the great expenso of American abor and glso to the fine material of which hey have to pay the enormous American @uty. As it is with clocks, so it is with other wrticles. In a recent annual report thesecre- tary of the United States treasury observed ghat what the Americun manufacturers now meed is u market for their surplus manufa tures. If the president's proposal carried out the American market for English goods will, et any rate a time, be considerably increased t whether, in the long run, we shall bo gainers commercially by the American aband- oument, or partiul abandonment, of protee- tion is more than doubtful.” The Globe talks m the vein of a political groan and during a long leader observes: “President Cleveland appears to have an eyo to working a class vote. He estimates that Ress than one-sixth of the luboring population in the states derives Denatit from the protection offered to wanu- facturers. 1f this be so the self-interest of the othor five-sixths should bring them over ©n masso to the free trade programme lald before congress_yesterday, The president, 4t is true, does not-cullhis new departure by bhat ugly name. On the contrary he waxes fndiguant av the supposition thut has come over o froe tradé, His remurkable utterance will be certain to exercise un ubsolutely para- mount influence on the next presideitial election. Party names and party ties are thrown into hotch potch and the governing issue at that contest will be between pro. tection and free trade. Had DPresid Cleveland been like many of his predec rm. merely a party politician, he would have ot the sieeping dogs lie until af! the pres- Kential elec . In that case his re election would have b¥n almost certain. Whereas, this outspoken message undoubtedly jeop ardises his chances and piays ‘into, the ‘dex- terous hands of Mr. Blaine and the wire pulling fraternity.” Ll WANT HIM TO REMA Plymouth's Call Ohjected to By Rev. Berry's English Congregation, (Copyright 1887ty James Gordon Bennett,) AVOLYERIKANPFTON, Dec. 7.~ (New York Her- a4 Cable—Specinl to the Bxs.]—The Con- gregationat church, of which tho Rev. Berry 48 pastor, have unamizously voted a request that he decime the Plymouth call and pussed & resolution—what iway be culled, an- affec $iovato yrotest-against his acceptance. 1 called upon him this moruing in hopes to ob. tain his definite view or wishes. He houses in company with A deacon. The latter said “At the meeting we all appreciated the com pliment patd the church and him, raising our appreciution to his worth, nevertheless we feel unable to make the sacrifice. With a view to diminishing his labors here and making it less hurtful to his health and pas- toral usefulness, we decitled to procure twb assistants for him, thus giving him more freedom to devote himself to the interests of the extension of Congregationalism in differ- ent parts of the kingdom.” On arriving at Mr. Berry's unpretending but home-like residence, bespeaking love of the necessities of life and refined surround ings_we found he was leaving for a short journey to obtain rest and gave earnest, tran- quil thought to the situation. He received, rtily and I was soon at home in his Mr. Berry is a flne conver- ist and shrewd in his observations. nt being cemoved we came In reply to my plump question whether he had yet decided to accept the call to Plymouth church ke said: “T have not as yet come to any gecision. It has beon o mat ter of surprise te find that it has been cabled to America that Thad aceepted. this t must have been copied from the non-conformist nowspaper which has cor rected the statement, made without authori in a previous issue. Several meetiugs of the deacons have taken place who made very powerful appeals to me to eonsider the matter, not as between our Queen street church and Plymeuth church, butas to between English congregationalism and congretionalism in America, assuring me of cvery assistance in an endeavor to niake my church here a center with a wide circumference. Last night, from what has been represented to me as a very large and enthusiastic ting of the church and con- gregation, a resolution has been forwarded to me pretty much ont the line of the deacous’ views. The meeting, T am told, was abso- lutely unan Our church looks upon the crisis ne call to itself to take up, for itsclf, a higher and broader work." “Have you received from other quarters any representattons to the same effect m neacly e quarter—religious, ecclesiastical or political—the men whose judgment T most rely upon in our own denomi- nation, brought weighty reasons to bear upon me against the acceptance and spoke in terms’ 100 genorous, of my past careor and my present prospects of usefuluess in England. oy urged, as I believe, that there is cor- tainly going to be in England a stiff fight be- tween religion and irreligion, while along with this, unfortuuately, the forces of religion are in my judgment seriously weakened by the revival of medievalism in the edtab- lished church and some sacredotalism even in the Scotch free church theology. Tam of the opinion that there is neced of a broad evangelical interpretation of the gosy pel which shall be credible unto a man's whole nature. That is the one thing needed to maeke religion victorious in the coming struggle and it has been pointed out to me that for this work I had shown myself fitted by sympathy and training. Of,course I know these same conditions obtain in América, but my friends emphatically claim that my own land should have the services of all her sons in this matter. I need say nothing now, to an American paper, of the ecclesiastical and political ques- tions which are coming up for settlement in England. It is natural to the leaders of liberalism, local or national, to wish to retain every man whose convictions and enthusiasms are so heartly with them as mine are known to bo. I must necessarily take their repre- sentations into account from all sides. It is at once to be perceived that this invitation cannot be quickly or lightly dealt with, and one of the most pleasing features of these, so trying duys, to me, is that cverywhere Plymouth church s recognized as one of the foremost platforms of the world and its past influence for good is confessed by men in all classes in that community and there are many who write to me their own experience.” . . “What are your own feelings at present in the matter “I am in great perplexity, [ am so deeply sensible of the great opportunity which is extended to me. Then I am very much moved by the unexampled affection and kind- ness shown to me by the members of Plymouth church. As to what will be the outcome of the matter I am not really able to say. Ishall take means to communicate di rectly with Plymouth church when I am in a position to say anything definite.” **When do you hope to be able to decide?” “Of course, the sooner the better for all parties. The strain is great upon me and the anxiety is growing more painful to both the churches by delay. Ihad hoped to have an- swered before now but circumstances, which were beyond my control, have necessarily delayed the matter. I cannot speak with any definiteness on this point beyond saying that I shall do my utmost to hasten a settlement.” At this juncture I folded up my notes as the carriage for his departure was at the door. He indeed did look perplexed. I took leave for the Herald impressed, as, more- over, scoms the goneral opinion here, that he would decline. The magnetism of the pressuro to stay is beside him and there is no magnetism to urge him to go. Another member said: *It scems this is, indeed, a divine call, but it may be a divine call to stir up our chureh to a higher respon- sibility than that which it has hitherto ac- knowledged. This seems to me to be sub stantially the idea of the members of the congregation, which were not effusive but v cordial and carnest in their desire pastor stay.” ““What is your own opinion about the situa- tion, and do you think Mr, Berry will proceed to Plymouth or vemain{" “Personally, I think Mr. Berry is to stay, us T believe ho is deeply af our people.

CLEVELAND SEVERELY CENSURED Secretary rchild Makes His An- nual Report and Suggests Means or Reducing the Surplus—Na- tional Capital News. . Cleveland Ronndly Denonanced. WasiiNGros, Doc. 7.—At to-day's session of the conference of wool growers and deal- ers of the United States, resolutions were unanimously adopted declaring that the wool growers and dealers of the United States, representing a capital of oyer &0,- 000,000 and constituencies of 1,000,000 wool growers and dealers, having read President Cleveland's message, declare its sentiment a direct attack upon their industry and in posi- tive violation of the democratic platform of 1554 that the argument made by the president for the removal of protection against foreign competition is an old one repeatedly made by the enemies of industrial progress, effec ively answered in nearly every school dis- trict of the land and so tiorougly disposed of by the logic of fact and demonstration of ex- nd history. Our “‘small holdings' and our scattered and unorganized condition mukes us an casy prey to free traders, but we had a right to expect something difterent from the chief execntive of tiie most prosper- ous, happy and contented nation in the world, made so by the pol- icy of protectionn and develop- ment he * uow sceks to destro; we confess the deep disappointment that our president favors the interests of our foreign competitors, justly alarmed at this position, we make an’appeal from his recommenda- tions to all the people; to the 7,750,000 of our fellow citizens engaged in manufacturing; to the army of wage earnces, whose wages aro mainteined by the protective system; to the tradesmen and merchants — whose pros- perity depends upon ours _ confi- dent that their judgment and decision will be based upon justice and patriotism and therefore for the maintenance of tho American policy of protection, to which the county is indebted for its unexampled de- velopment and_prosperity. To demonstrate the injustice of the rwwidvnt‘fl policy and the faliacy of the remedy he proposes for the re- duction of the “surplus, we point to the fact that if the whole revenue derived from wool bolished, it would reduce the surplus only about £5,000,000, or less than 10 cents bita of the population, which is paid by while the old war e recommends retained, over §119,000,000 and is a direct tax per capita of $2 each and is what makes up the great bulk of the surplus of $140,000,000 and which fosters a most dangerous monopoly. Statistics are then given showing that the act of 1834 has increased the revenue from imported wools and diminished the number of sheep in the United States about 12 per cent, and the annual product in the same proportion. The prosident’s poli d bring about a d ction of this industry, and the same policy of reduction or abolition of the tariff wouid end in disaster to all the other industrial productive énterprises of the country. is annual report ‘submitted to congress to-day, says: The total ordinary receipts of the government, during the year ending June 50, 1887, were $371,403,000 and the al of ordinary expenditures were § 5,000, leaving a surplus of £55,568,000, which, with the amount drawn from the cagh bulance in the treasury, makes the total surplus $50,024,000 which is offered for the redemption of bonds. For the present year the revenues are estimated ut £353,000,000 and expenditures $216,818,000, leaving an es- timated surplus of 35,182,000 on June 50, 1883, The secretary then gives the following ways in which the receipts and expenditures of the government may be made about equal: 1. Purchase of the interest bearing debt of the government; 2. Large expenditures by the government for other purposes than the purchase of bonds so that they shall each year equal the taxation of that year; 3. Re- duction of the revenue from taxation to the amount actually required to meet the neces- sary expenses, All these cxpedients have in common one merit of preventing the derange- ment of business which must follow the hoarding or locking up in the treasury of the circulating media of the people.’ The secretary goes on to suy: The reduc- tion of the revenue from taxation is the only fit remedy for the evils which threaten the country. This may be accomplished in va- rious ways. Oue is, to reduce or abolish in- ternal revenuo taxation. In favor of this is the fact that in a small part of the southern states the internal tax on liquors and tobacco s thought to be oppressive and odious to tho people of these regions: aud the further fact that, by its reduction the expenses of itd col- lection might be somewhat reduced. As to the expense of collecting the revenue, I suggest that the amalgamation of customs and internal revenue systems is entirely feasible, and that thereby a large number of offices might be abolished, I earnestly com- mend this suggestion to tho caveful consider- ation of congress. To do away with the whole revenue from internal taxes at present would 80 diminish the revenue that it would he necessary to lay duties on articles of importa- tion now free. taxation, the secretary thinks, is tho place where the reduction should’ Be made and, while reducing, advantage should be taken of the opporjunity to reform abuses. Of the surplus, the secretary says one use which could be made of the money is to diminish the taxation to such an extent that the annual revenues will be less for some years to come than_appropriations, thus, the accumulated surplus would be used for ordin- ary expenses and the people would gain the greatest possible good from it, The report shows that the circulation of the standard silver dollars has increased $10,465,- 000 during the past year. The secretary says in regard to this: " *“The law should be 8o amended as to authorize the secretary of the treasury to issue certificates against the coin- age valuc of bullion bought, and to coin only such number of dollars as he might deem ex- pedient hereafter. There should always be in the treasury enough silver, besides that held against outstanding certificates, to en- able the government to at once supply any demand for it on the part of the people.” ‘The balance of the report is taken up with the reports of the customs, revenue, marine, emigrant and coast survey.
