RE SIGNING A GREAT OFFICE PUESlDES'l OREVY 10 SE1IBB XEXT WEEK. HIS MESSAGE OF RESIGNATION TO BR READ IN THE CHAMBER ON MOX- AT THE SUCCESSION. Paris, Nov. 24. M.

Grvy has requeated M. Rlbot to form a Cabinet, and charged him to convey to tha Chamber hi meat age of retlgna-tlon. M. Rlbot contented, but adriaad M. Orery that, aa the maaaaa wat a political act, tha tenor ot which required the approval of the Cabinet, the President ought to confer with the retiring Minlatera.

II. Grevy aoeord-log-ly tammoned U. Bourler and hla oolleaguea. The Rlbot Cabinet wiU probably lselude M. Floorena, M.

Waldeck-Roaaaeau, M. Badt-Car-fiot, and Gen. Ferron. The Radical Journal strongly oppose the electioa of Gen. Sauttler to the Preaideney.

It It reported that 1L Rlbot, In a eeeond Interview with M. Gr6yy to-day, advised the Prea-Idrnt to retain tha Rouvier Mlnlatry In office until he had realgned. The Journal df Dtbatt predict a definite set-tlement of the crltlt to-morrow. Immediately upon M. Grtry" announcement ot hi resignation a plenary meeting ot the group of the Left will select a candidate for the Preaideney.

At a meeting of Radical to-day it wat decided resolutely to oppose any military candidate. The Rouvier Cabinet had a conrerenca with M. Grevy ta-day. M. Grevy Intimated that he bad decided to resign.

HI met age will be read In the Chamber of Deputies on Monday. The two Chambers will probably assemble on Tuesday. M. Rouvier. on being ahown the text of M.

Greyrsnieeaage, oujected to it at too com-minatory, saying that it would cause a storm in the Chamber. M. Rlbot overcame M. Rouvler's objection, but he himself is urglDg M. Grevy to modify the message.

M. Grey appeara to have greatly aged within the laat few days. The Republican Party desires to hold a canons before Congress meets In order to Insure a unanimous vote, and arold the chance of a tpllC wnlch might enable the Opportunist, led by kl. Ferry, to bring in Gen. Sauaaler with the help of the Monareuiate.

The Bourse was strong to-day. Three per rente advanced 60c, Credit Foneler 14L, and Etuez Canal 6f. The amount of 49 per cent, rentes presented for eouversion reaches out of a total of held by tha public i ne UDamoer or to-day adopted the Government bill continuing the aurtax on pliita three month. The extreme Radical are trying to prepare a charge of treason sgalnst M. Grevy for hit per sonal action toward the uovsmment of Peru and the French tribunal In the Dreyfus guano affair.

THE REICHSTAG OPENED. Germany's peaceful policy feelivo ALLUSIONS TO UNSER FRITZ. Berlin, Nov. 24. The Reichstag was opened to-day.

Minister von Boet doner read the speech from the thro a a. The speech was substantially a follows: Germany, in her foreign policy, has suoeesa- fully endeavored to strengthen the peaae of Europe by the cultivation of friendly relations with all of the power by treaties and alllancea aiming to avert the dangers of war and Jointly to oppose any unjust attack. Germany has no aggressive tendencies; she has no wants to be satisfied through victorious wars. An unchristian disposition to surprise neighboring peoples is foreign to the German nature and to the constitution of the empire. The military organisation ef the country la not calculated to disturb the peace of her neighbors by arbitrary attacks.

Germany Is strong In parrying surprise and In defending her Independence. She wishes to become so strong that ah can faee with oompoeur every danger. resumption, oi the session of ths Reichstag eomes at a serious time. The grsva eom- piaini wun wuicn tne urown rrlnco baa been visited ttile the mind not only of the Emperor, out uu ui uia auguat auiea ana me wnoie or Germany, with anxious care. Nothing that humaa science and knowledge and careful tending can do will be left undone.

Our eyes and orayers. however, are directed toward God, whose decrees rale the destinies of nations aa well as the lire ef the Individual man. Firm confidence in God and the faithful fulfillment of duty have been In all especially grave moments the tried supports of our people, and they will now also enaDle us to do Justice to the labor awaiting the Legislature, There ha been a gratifying Improvement In the Onanalal condition of tha country, and It la expected that next year will show a surplus of nearly ftO.OOO.OOO marks. Bills wlU be Introduced abolishing compulsory contributions on the part of officers ana imperial officials to the widows' and orphans' fund; lnoreasing the corn dutlea, modlfylug the landwehr and landaturm system so that It will be considerably strengthened: relating to the lnauranoe of artl-aaaa In eaaea of old age and elekneaa; modifying the friendly aoeletlea law with regard te the aale of wine; temporarily prolonging the Amtre-Germaa treaty, and ratifying treatle of commerce with tome Araerlean State. One hundred and fifty Deputies were present.

The place reserved for members ot ths Court, were not occupied. In the diplomatic gallery there were only a few military attache, but the public gallerlea were erowded. At noon the membera of the Bandearata entered the White Hall, which wat illuminated, and took position on the left of the throne. During the reading of the speech Minister von Boettloher was often interrupted by applauae and enthnalaatln cheer. At tha eloae Herr von Boettloher haying declared the Relshstag open, Herr Wedell Fieadorfr, the President of the body, called for cheers for the JCmperor, which were given with enthusiasm.

The President, in his opening addret. alluded to the aerloua nature of the llinett ot the Crown Prince and the grief ot the country over bit fat. Anxiety concerning hi condition relegated all other thought to the background. The member would Join, the President said, in expressing their sorrow and declaring that they placed their confidence in God's grace and mercy. He asked authority to convey these aaotlmenta to the Emperor and aend the following telegram to the Crown Prince: The Relchttag.

in profound reverence and cordial love, thlnka of your Imperial Hlghneaa. May Ood protect your precloua life and preserve It far the salvation of the fatherland." Ths Deputies listened to the address standing, and unanimously approved the President' suggestions. The National OazetU, commenting on tho speech from the throne, cay it hopes that the effect of the peaceful policy of which the message treats may be multiplied at the aeaalon proceeds, and that more explicit statements made In the Relchttag regarding Germany'a foreign relatione may establish the fact that the European situation is growing clearer. The Berlin Pot Is dissatisfied because of the vagueneaa of the reference to foreign affaire at a time when the red sun of Russian-Austrian war is viaible In the morning aky." The expenditure for Imperial armamenta is estimated in the budget at S62.6o,01i marks. Including 21.000.00U marks for completing trategie railway.

On the Boerae to-day price were strong at the opening, but they receded toward the elote owing to heavy realizations. The reaction waa pertly due to the Emperor's speech falling to meet expectation regarding relation with the Car.

OUTSPOKEN VIEWS EXPECTED OX TBE TARIFF AMD SILVER PROBLEMS THE FOREIGN MAIL SERVICE. Washington, Nov. 24. Secretary of the Treasury Fairchlld ha been avoiding the Interruptions to which he would be exposed at his office and has for several days past been working on hi annual report at hi house.

He could, if he chose, lock himself up in hla room at the Treasury snd be free from Interruption. But that would make It necessary for the clerks and messengers on duty about the Secretary's room monotonously to repeat to callers the explanation that the Becre-. tary waa engaged. As It is. the door to the Secretary's room is tnrown wide open, and bureau officers, who look in and see that it is unoccupied go to the Assistant Secretary without question, while callers from abroad are Informed that the Secretary 1 at home and cannot see visitors." The report will be ready some time before the House of Representative meet, and the President will have an early synopsis of it for incorporation In to his message.

It Is understood that it will not be so long as the last report of Secretary Manning, and that It will differ In some respect from It. In the report for 1886 Mr. Manning abandoned the eomewhst time-honored custom of beginning with a tatement of receipt and expenditure and following with an estimate of receipt and expenditure for the following Steal year. He opened with a chapter on the silver question aud consumed half of the space occupied by the report in dealing with that aubJecL Nearly all tbe rest of tbe report waa diacntsion of the tariff, and, while a report ef receipt and expenditures was given, there was not In the re port any estimate oi income and outgo. Mr.

Manning. It waa understood, waa nat eleariv convinced that the law required him to make a report upon the estimated receipts and expendl- bura. Mr. Fairchlld will orobablr not devote an much space to silver as his predecessor, but he will, it Is understood, stand npon about tha ame ground that Mr. Manning occupied on the question oi eniorcea coinage oi toe silver dollar.

Upon the tariff a uestlon he will endeavor to be plain and practical. He aannot be weak or uncertain It he writes aa he talka. and while he will certainly advocate strongly a reduotlon vi ouaiouis revenues ne win also give reason that baye been forced upon him by experienoe for amendments of the customs laws that will lighten the burdens ot inspectors, appraisers, and the courts at the same time that they will remove cause of grievous annoyance to merchants and tourists. Vt bile Mr. Manning was Secretary it was can- erally understood, correctly or not, that parte of the annual report which ha algned.

and particularly thoae parte which dealt minutely with the ailver and tariff quettlona, were the work of collaborers poeaed of tpeclal knowledge. Mr. Falrahlld's report wilt be his own In every sense. He has devoted himself cloeely to the study of the financial history of the country, and ha become acquainted by contact with tbe service in tbe divisions with the machinery of tbe department and the ends for which the department was organized. To a man who takes a practical view of the service, as Mr.

Fairchlld doe, and who believe that lit function It aim-ply one for economical and correct enforcement ef law and not the maintenance of a machiae for the lucrative employment ot officeholder, the study of the service cannot fall to be suggestive, and his suggestions are bound to be characteristic of a straightforward, earnest, and upright publlo officer. Superintendent Bell, of the Foreign Mall Serv ice, is strongly Impressed with the belief that his suggestion for ths psyment of premiums to secure prompt sailings of steamers to South and Central America will be gladly accepted by the steamship companies to be affected, and that It will be hailed by merchants who do business wua tne countries referred to with rat aatia. faction. Hla Idea 1 that a vettel announced to all on tbe let ot a acoath and that carriea. aay.

worm oi mati matter anall receive a premium ot peruape 75 or lOO per ceaL advance on the amount it would receive under the law in conalderatlon or adhering faithfully to a schedule announced six months in advance. If a sailing day la anticipated or postponed penal- net tuaii do incurred equal in amount to tne sum that could be earned at premiums. The custom ha prevailed of basing transaction! upon tne antes or sailing or tbe steamers, and this baa been the case to auch an extent that serious annoyance has frequently resulted from the postponement of sailings for periods of five or even ten days. It Is probable that the Pott-matter-Generai will direct attention to the recommendation in his annual report. Mr.

J. Hampden Robb, who ha recently been appointed a Park Commissioner by Mayor Hewitt, would have been Assistant Secretary of State to Mr. Bayard If the President bad been a little earlier in offering tbe place to him. Mr. Bobb had been an admired friend of Mr.

Cleve land while he was Governor, and while Secretary Bayard was looking tor an assistant to nil tbe vacancy caused by the resignation of cx-Gov. Forter Mr. Robb's name waa suggested, and a telegraphic dispatch was sent to him In viting him to come to Washington to talk about tha propoaed nomination.
