PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. Summary of President jlcKinley ^lossage to Congress. Thc third annual message to C gress of President William Melvin submitted to that body December I is the longest document yet issued the President. Thc message will tract widespread attention becaus* deals with the new conditions brou about by the accession of new te tory resulting from the Spanish An ican war, and because it will bc garded as the plea ol' the Republl party for the support of the Amerii people in the presidential election next year. That the message is int esting throughout and is well wo reading, despite its great length, th is no doubt. It is given in full, w for word, in The Journal to day, mainlines are summarized below: The president begins by stating tl on the threshold of the deliberalic of Congress the members are call upon to mourn with their countrym the death o:c Vice President Hoba paying tribute to che worth of t :'<r dead statesman. The president next declares unqu ifiedly for the gold standard. On-tl momentous question, he says: "I urgently recommend that to su port the existing gold standard and maintain 'the party value of the coi of the t >vo metals (gold and silve: and the equal power of every dollar all times in the market and in tl payment of dehts,' the secretary the treasury be given additional pow and charged with the duty to s< United States bonds and to emph such other effective means as may 1 necessary to these ends." Mr. McKinley next discusses tl subject' of an American merchat marine, and earnestly recommenc that steps bc taken by Congress i encourage and aidintheestablishmer of a great marine, seemingly endor ing the proposed ship subsidy mo vt ment without raying so clearly. Perhaps there is no greater surpris in the message than the President' . reference to the trusts. He plací his administration squarely in opp( sition to *he combinations of trade On this s jject he says: "Combinations of capital organize into trusts to control the conditions c trade among the citizens, to stifi competition, limit production and de termine the prices of products use* and consumed by the people, are just ly provoking public discussion am should early claim tfhe attention o Congress." Coming to the Transvaal-Britisl war, the President seemingly rebukei in no uncertain tones the recent utter anees of Mr. Joseph Chamberlain British colonial secretary, and Mr Joseph Choate, United States ambas sador to England, proclaiming thal this country and England are practi cally in alliance. The President re¬ affirms the time-honored doctrine that this country shall remain free from entangling foreign alliances. He says: "This government has maintained an attitude of neutrality in the unfor¬ tunate contest between Great Britain and the Boer States of Africa. We have remained faithful to the precept of avoiding entangling alliances as to affairs not of our direct concern. Had circumstances suggested that the par¬ ties to the quarrel would have wel¬ comed any kindly expression of the hope of the American people that war might be averted, good offices would have been tendered." Coming to the acquisition of Porto Rico and discussing the Cuban ques¬ tion, the President dv ells on the des¬ tiny of both countries, recommending the establishment of a civil govern¬ ment for Porto Rico as rapidly as pos¬ sible and the raising of the custom duties on exports of that island. He declares that the island of Cuba, which is temporarily under the protection of the United States, must be turned over to the people of the is.'and as soon as a stable government can bc formed, reaffirming the purpose of the government declared prior to the Spanish war that the people of Cuba would be given their freedom and the yoke of Spanish rule swept away. He says this pledge is of the highest hon¬ orable obligation and must be sacredly kept. Then he speaks of the intimacy which must exist between America and Cuba and of the destiny of the is¬ land, declaring we must protect the people. The President relegated the Philip¬ pines question away to the rear of his message, but it can be clearly discern¬ ed that he intends what he says on this subject to be regarded as the most important part of the document. He begins on the question by referring to the treaty of peace between Spain and the United States signed Decem¬ ber 10th, 1898, by which Spain ceded to this country the Philippine Islands in consideration of $20,000,000 and peace. He declares on this ques¬ tion: "The islands were ceded by the government of Spain, which had been in undisputed possession of them for centuries. "They were accepted not merely by our authorized agents in Paris under the direction of thc executive, but by ; the Constitutional and well considered action of the Représentative» of the people in both houses of Congress. I had every reason to believe and I stili believe that this transfer of sovereign¬ ty was in accordance with the wishes and the aspirations of the great mass of the Filipino people. "On the 21st of December, after the treaty was signed, the commander of the forces of occupation was instruct¬ ed to announce and proclaim in the most public manner that we came, not as invaders cand conquerors, but as friends, to protect the natives in their homes, in their employment and in their personal and religious rights.' " "It is enough to say that the claim of the rebel leader that he was prom¬ ised independence by any officer of the United States in return for his assist¬ ance has no foundation in fact and is categorically denied by the very wit¬ nesses who were called to prove it. The most the insurgent leader hoped for »vheo he came to Manila was the liberation of the islands from thc Spanish control, which they had been laboring for years without success to throw off. "The future government of the Philippines rests with the Congress of the United States. If we accept them in a spirit worthy of our race and our traditions, a great opportunity comes with them. The islands lie under the shelter of our flag. They are ours by every title of law and equity. They cannot be abandoned. If we desert them, we leave them at once to anar¬ chy and finally barbarism. "We fling them, a golden apple of discord, among the rival powers, no one of which could permit another to seize them unquestioned. "Their rich plains and valleys would be the scene of endless strife and bloodshed. The advent of Dew¬ ey's fleet in Manila bay, instead of being, as we hope, the dawn of a new day of freedom and progress, will have been the beginning of an era of misery and violence worse than any which has darkened their unhappy past. The suggestion has bern made that we could renounce our authority over the islands, and giving them indepen¬ dence, could retain a protectorate over them. This proposition will not be found, I am sure, worthy of your serious attention. Such au arrange¬ ment would involve at thc outset a cruel breach of faith. It would place the peaceful and loyal majority, who ask for nothing better than to accept our authority, at the mercy of the minority armed insurgent. It would make us responsible for the acts of the insurgent leaders and give us no power to control them. It would charge us with the task of protecting them against each other and defending them against any foreign power with which they choose to quarrel. In short, it would take from the Congress of the United States the power of de¬ claring war and vest that tremendous prerogative in the Tagalo leader of the hour.-Atlanta Journal.

Desperate Fight Between Constables and George Howard. Col it mb ut State. GREENVILLE, Dec. 5.-This after¬ noon between *i and 5 o'clock a desper¬ ate fight took place at thc bridge over thc Southern railway on thc road to Paris mountain, two miles from thc heart of thc city, between Constables Cornwell and Cooley of thc State constabulary, and George Howard, whose home is just outside the city limits, on the duncombe road near thc Sampson and Poe cotton mill. It seems that Cornwell and Cooley were ou the scent of whiskey wagons and met George Howard with another man coming from towards the mountains, but there is no acurate information as to what took place except that shoot¬ ing began without any unnecessary delay, resulting in George Howard re¬ ceiving a mortal wound, Cornwell be¬ ing severely, if not fatally, wounded, and Cooley receiving a shot through the thigh. Cornwell was brought to the Windsor hotel, where physicians were called immediately and he was put under the influence of chloroform. He was suffering so much that he could not give any account of thc trouble, but said he felt certain that shot from his pistol killed Howard. This is said to be a mistake, however, and that Howard is still alive, though there is no hope for his recovery.- Cooley's wound is not considered dangerous and he will probably sur¬ vive the combat. The man who was with Howard is unknown as yet, and it is said that he made a quick escape. Howard formerly lived in the Dark Corner, but recently has made his home near town. He is a cripple, about 45 years old and has a family. Later.-The shooting affray this af¬ ternoon took place in a piece of woods near the Paris mountain road, just before it crosses thc Southern railway. George Howard was there with his unknown companion, who had driven a covered wagon into thc woods this morning. The constables were out on a raid, and circled around the wagon. One of tnem discovered liquor kegs and notified thc other. Cooley took charge of the liquor and carried it to his buggy, while Cornwell approached the men. who were sitting on thc ground before a fire near thc wagon. The men surrendered without resis¬ tance and Howard says that Cornwell took hold of him, at which he remon¬ strated, telling him that the liquor belonged to thc other man, but that Cornwell again seized him. After saying this much he declined to talk any more. Cornwell has said that Howard in¬ formed him that he was not armed, but that Howard opened fire on him, which.he returned at close range, in¬ flicting five wounds, and when Howard was found on the roadside by his nephew his overcoat was afire from the powder of Cornwell's pistol. Cooley was putting a keg in the buggy on the opposite side from where the others were standing, and says he was fired upon when his back was to¬ wards them. He thinks it was the man who ran away that shot him, and says the fire was repeated almost in¬ stantly. He raised up and fired a rifle at Howard and then emptied his re¬ volver at him. Howard was wounded five times, the most serious of which is in the left breast, just below the nipple, the bullet going in straight, and the doc¬ tors are afraid to probe for it. He was taken to his home on thc Poe hill, and the physicians injected nitro-gly¬ cerine to keep his heart fcoing and prevent a collapse, while they were examining his wounds. It is thought he cannot live through the night. Cornwell's wounds are also consid¬ ered fatal, thc ball passing through his intestines, and 'the physicians do not express any hope of his recovery. He was married about two months ago in Chester county and his wife is seriously ill at their home, which caused him to be taken to thc hotel. Cornwell walked about 50 yards on the road to town before he fell, and when Cooley found him on the side of the road he was too weak to get into the buggy. Cooley then hastened to town for assistance, which was speedily given. Howard walked 100 yards before he gave up and when his nephew came to him on the roadside driving a wagon out of town on his way home Howard informed him very coolly that he had been in a shooting scrape and was cer¬ tain that he had shot one of the con¬ stables. Cornwell is unconscious at 10 o'clock and result is uncertain. The Greenville News of the 8th inst, says: Two of the men engaged in Tues¬ day's battle between moonshiners and dispensary constables died yesterday from their wounds. Constable John B. Cornwell, whose serious wound was in his abdomen, expired at his room in the Windsor hotel a few minutes af ter 2 a. m.. and "Little George'' Howard, whose mortal wound was ;- his left chest near the heart, breathed his last at the Poe mill village at 3 p. m. Neither made a dying declara¬ tion.
