Washington, Dec. 3. The report that Minister Dcnby had appealed for help in a cablegram to the department of state is now confirmed, but the dis- patch, instead of coining Friday, was re- ceived, as stated in these dispatches, several days ago. It was last Monday that Secretary Oresham learned from the American minister that protection was required, and the navy depart- ment immediately cabled to Admiral Carpenter, directing him to deliver a draft of fifty marines to the Monocacy at Tien-Tsi- As the old Monocacy could not furnish accommodations for such an increase to her crew, it is to be presumed that the men were to be landed.

In my last annual message I adverted to the claim on the part of Turayof tho right to expel as persons undesirable and dangerous Ar- menians naturalized in the United states and returning to Turkish jurisdiction. Numerous questions In this relation have arisen. While this government acquiesces In the asserted right of expulsion it will not Consent that Armenians may bo Imprisoned or otherwise punished for no other reason than having ao.iutred, without Imperial consent, American cltlacnshlp. Three of tuo assailants of Miss Melton, an American teacher in Mosul, have been convicted by the ottoman courts, and I am advised that an appeal against the acquit ml of the. remaining live has been taken by the Turkish prosecuting (.nicer, OfB DELATIONS WITH VENKZt'KI.A. A convention has been concluded with Venezuela for the arbitration of a claim growing out of the seizure of cer- tain vessels, the property of citizens of the United States. Although signed, the treaty of extradition with Venezuela Is not yet in force owing to the insistence of that government that when surrendered its citizens shall in no case be liable to capital punishment. BAMI.AN AKCAIHS In my last annual message 1 referred briefly to the unsatisfactory state of affairs in Samoa under the operation of the. Berlin treaty, as signally illustrating the impolicy of entangling alliances with foroigu powers: and on Mav 9, IHIU. In response to a resolution of the senate, I sent a special message and documents to that body on tho snme subject, which emphasized my previously expressed opinions. Later oc- currences, tho correspondence In regard to which will bo laid before congress, further demonstrate that the government which was devised by Ihe three powers and forced upon the Samoans against their inveterate hostility can be maintained onlv by the continued presence of foreign military force and at 110 small sacritlce of life and treasure. The suppression of tbeMatiiaia Insurrection Li- the powers and the subsequent banishment of the leader and eleven other chiefs, as recited in my lust message, did not bring lusting peace to the" islands, and forniidublo uprisings have continued. The present government utterly failed to cor- rect, if, indeed. It has not aggravated, the very evils It was Intended to prevent. It has not stimulated our commerce with the islands. Our participation in its establishment against the wishes of the natives was in plain dehance of the conservative teachings and warnings of the wise and patriotic men who laid the founda- tions of our free Institutions, unit 1 invite an expression of the judgment of congress on the propriety of steps being taken by this govern- ment looking to the withdrawal from its en- gagements with Ihe other powers on some rea- sonable terms not prcjudieal to any of our existing rights. tltlcatlon by such forolgn governments of all importations therefrom, whether edible or bev Sharrafnliiess of its restrictions upon itituui, "f ccrluln of our food products, erages.

This would have been all right but for the n fact scores of unworthy applicants were getting themselves on tho rolls, greatly to the dotriment of those who needed the funds. The amount is distributed pro rata, and of course the more pensioners the smaller the amount each receives. The amount appropriated now Is 985,500. When this was equally divided between the three thousand on the rolls last year it was found that the .portion of each only amounted to 20.75. This year the number is only 2,500, and it will rejoice those who succeeded in being recognized to know that the portion of each will amount to $27, or 0.75 more than thoy got last year. This sum, while small to the averago man, is quite an item to the class ol people drawing this fund, as they are all very poor, having to swear and prove that they are unable to earn a support and have no visible means of existence. beef and hog products over the year previous, with, on the other hand, a marked decline In ance by the government of Its legitimate functions, it became necessary.

He and his party were readily passed through the gates, but upon ascend- ing the steps leading up to the stone walk approaches the police told them, as they had told everybody else, that they must proceed to the right or left upon the grounds. Kolb and his party proceeded around to the righl of the building upon the grass. Presently W. S. Reese, Jr., who ran for attorney general on Kolb's ticket went to one of Gov. Jones' secret-aria- and asked if Kolb would be allowed lo make a speech in the grounds. The secretary replied that he could not speak officially. Kolb then asked if there was any ob- jection to his speaking on the streets outside. Gov. Jones told him there was none whatever. Accordingly Kolt and his followers left the grounds. Outside the gates they proceeded tc the sidewalk opposite. There a coun- try wagon was pressed into service and Kolb with several of his leaders mounted it. The most liberal esti- mates do not place the crowd of white men who gathered around it at ovei 200, and many of those were democrats. There were also a hundred or two ol curious local negroes. No arms were seen upon any person. Kolb delivered a very short speech, in which he asserted that he had been lawfully elected and had been defraud- ed; that he had pursued this course simply to emphasize the position ol himself and purty against the usurpa- tion of his ottice.

The report of the attorney-gener- notes the gratifying progress made bv tile supreme court In overcoming tiie arrears of its business and in reaching a coniliLion In which it will be able to dispose of cases as they arise without any unreasonable delay. This result is. of course, verv largely due to the successful working of the plan inaugurating circuit courts of appeals. In respect to these tribunals the suggestion Is made, in quarters entitled to the highest con- sideration, that an additional circuit judge for each circuit would greatly strengthen these courts and the confidence reposed In their adjudications, and that such an addition would not create a greater force of judges than the Increasing business of such courts requires. I commend Ihe suggestion to the careful consideration of the congress.

As the procession passed along there was not the slightest disorder or mark of disrespect of any kind. Arriving at the capitol the customary salute was fired by the artillery. Prpycr was offered by Rev. Dr. Eager, of the Baptist church, and then Gov. Jones introduced Oates in a brief but forcible address. The governor-elec- t then delivered his inaugural address. He said he was satisfied beyond a doubt that he was elected by a large majority, or he would not accept the oftiee. He then touched upon national affairs, and spoke in the highest terms of the national democratic administra- tion and what it had accomplished for the welfare of the country. He closed with a high compliment to the remark- ably successful administration of his predecessor, and announced himself ready to take the oath of office. This was administered by Chief Justice Brickell on the Bible which is pre- - . served in the state's archives as the one used when Jefferson Davis was in- augurated president of the confederacy on the same spot. This ended the ceremony, an artillery salute again ringing out and the new governor was conducted to the execu- tive oftiee by his predecessor where a reception was held for some time, hun- dreds of ladies as well as gentlemen congratulating the new governor.
