I transmit herewith a communication from the Secretary of State, covering the report of the joint commission on behalf of the United States and Great Britain, dated December 31, 1896, relative to the preservation of the fisheries in waters contiguous to the United States and Canada, as provided by the joint agreement between the United States and Great Britain dated December 6, 1892.

The experiment of substituting civilized methods for brute force as the means of settling international questions of right will thus be tried under the happiest auspices.
I herewith return without approval House bill No. 4526, entitled 'An act granting a pension to Jonathan Scott.'
This bill is in many of its features far removed from a legitimate deficiency bill, and it contains a number of appropriations which seem to me to be exceedingly questionable.
