Resolution by (be Senator Thatoine Senators Did Not I.Ike. WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. The startling news from Hawaii received speedy recognition ln the Senate to-day, Mr. Frye offering a resolution brisiling with indignation at the attitude of the United States government ln such an emergency. This precipitated a short but animated - debate, during which Mr. Frye arraigned the executive branch of the government- WThen the resolution finally went over through the objection Interposed by Mr.George, Mr. Frye startled the Senate with the declaration that while Providence might forgive the Senator who made such an objection, the American people never would. Mr. Lodge made a vigorous speech on the same line, and Senators George and Caffery defended the administration. The death of Miss Mary Stevenson, daughter of the Vice President, was feelingly referred to in the prayer of the chaplain at the opening to-day. Mr. Manderson presented the credentials of John M. Thurston, elected as a United States Senator from Nebraska, for the term beginning March 4 next. With this brief routine prelude, Mr. Frye, of the committee on foreign affairs, gave a dramatic turn to the proceedings by offering the resolution; "Resolved. That the Senate learns with profound indignation the attempt to restore a deposed Queen to power in the Hawaiian islands, and extends to the young republic the warmest sympathy in her efforts to suppress rebellion; and that it is the sense of the Senate that the United States government should at once dispatch war ships to the Island." Senatprs gave the closest attention to the reading of the re-olutlon and the galleries filled rapidly as word was passed that the Hawaiian question had been taken up. Mr. Frye asked that the resolution be given immediate consideration. HILL, OFFERS A SUGGESTION. "I suggest," said Mr. Hill, "that the language 'profound indignation' is rather extreme and it might be desirable to modify it by the words "profound regret.' " "On . the ;. contrary," : declared Mr. Frye, with great earnestness, "I do not believe profound indignation sufficiently expresses : my own feelings or the feelings of the American people." "Nor the feelings of the Senator from New York," interjected Mr. Chandler, sarcastically. Mr. Hill hesitated only a moment at the interruption and then added: "I at least hope that the Senator from New Hampshire (Chandler) will concede to me the guardianship of my own feelings. , I had no,t moved an amendment to the language, but had merely offered a Buggestlon.v - "In order to facilitate the passage of thA rltl(l!nHln " ii(itiHnna,-l nr. I.".-. . ... .1 in order-that .it may at once be cabled to the Hawaiian islnds, I will accept the proposed change." The presiding officer was about to put the question and it seemed as though the " resolution would pass without a word of protest when Mr. Gray Interposed an objection. "I do not object to the first part of the resolution," said he, "but the last part seems inappropriate at this-time." VI hen," saki Mr-.Frye( , "let us proceed to consideration of the first. I will modify the resolution accordingly." 1 Mr. Caffery rose at this point. "Is this not rather nremature?" hf asknri. "Wa nr not yet informed as to the facts on which the resolution Is predicated. The press reports this morning tell us there has been an emmute.ln the Hawaiian islands. But whether there has been an effort to restore the Queen we do not know. I a3k the benator ftom Maine to tell us if he has anv information on that point." Mr. Frye was on his feet. "I must say," he proceeded, "that since I have read in the morning papers that the Secretary of State says he can take no action until he receives official communication as to the outbreak, that while the Secretary of the Navy can order war ships to those islands he will not act until so requested by the Secretary of State, I can consent to no further change or modification in the resolution." Again the presiding officer was about to put the question when Mr. George interjected: "I object." FRYE GROWS DRAMATIC. Mr. Frye faced about to the Democratic side and looked steadily at Mr. George. "God may forgive the Senator who makes that objection," "said Mr. Frye, each word coming with measured deliberateness, "but I do. not believe the American people will forgive him. There was an oppressive pause of a moment.. Senators looked at each other ominously as Mr. Frye's words echoed through the chamber. Mr. George had risen slowly, his face flushed and showing Intense feeling. "Such a remark is improper and unworthy of the Senator," said Mr. George. "My right to offer an objection is not qualified ln the least by what the Senator may think on the subject. I am not responsible to the Senator from Maine as to my conduct." Mr. George insisted on his objection, and, under the rules, the resolution was laid aside. . Mr. Lodge then gave notice of an intention to call up the resolution offered by Mr. Aldrich on the 9th ln3t., saying that such a course was made necessary by the objection which had been made to the present consideration of other resolutions. Mr. Aldrich's resolution follows: "Resolved, That the Senate of the United States, having ln view public interests and those of American citizens residing ln the Hawaiian Islands, is of the opinion that our government should be represented ln Hawaiian waters by one or more ships of its navy." At this point there was a break In the discussion of the Hawaiian question, brought about by Mr. Cockrell, chairman of the committee on appropriations, by the Introduction of a report on the urgent deficiency bill, and there was some discussion on the income tax amendments. Finally, Mr. Chandler made an effort to have the conference report postponed until 2 o'clock, but. failing to secure the assent of Mr. Cockrell, moved that disposition of the matter be temporarily postponed. Mr. Lodge contended that the Hawaiian matter was of far more Importance than the infliction of the income tax on the country. While generally there was no great wisdom displayed in "I told you so," he could not refrain from pointing to the verification furnished by the uprising reported in to-day's paper of the predictions which had been made by Admiral Walker in his report and by himself in his remarks .Tiade ln the Senate, based on that report. The Admiral had made the point that the withdrawal of the American ships from Hawaiian waters would make the impression on the native mind that this country was in sympathy with the royalists and favorable to the restoration of the Queen, and ln hts comments Mr. Lodge had pointed out that so far as the result would ,be affected it would not matter whether they were right or wrong In reaching this conclusion. It would in either case be lla- , ble.to encourage an uprising. Admiral Walker has also expressed the opinion that In case of an uprising the present rrovernnient would be able to maintain Itself, and this prediction has also been happly verified. ADMINISTRATION CRITICISED. Mr. Lodge referred to the position of the President's message bearing on the landing of British cable on one of the Hawaiian islands as a covert reference to Admiral Walker, who was his own witness, and proceeded to comment on the fact that the "Intelligent diplomatic agent" to whom the President had referred had been so prompt "to disavow the views of the Admiral. He also called attention to statements ln today's dispatch", concerning the alleged ' readiness of the British consul representative to recognize the revolutionary govern- , inent ln ca-se of Its being able to hold the Palace for three hours. He did not mean to imply that the British were doing more ln Hawaii than seeking by the aggr swive- . nes" which Great Britain shows in ail such ' Biattera to extend the commercial suprema

cy of that country. He criticised the administration not only for the withdrawal of the American ships, but for its first efforts to sustain the royalists, and also complained of what he considered the efforts of the Democratic Senators to prevent Immediate consideration of the question by technical objects and privileged reports. In view of the facts developed in to-day's dispatches, the Senate should no longer delay in the expression of sympathy with the Republican course In Hawaii, ln extending its congratulations on the strength which the existing government had shown, and in declaring for an American policy of administration Mr. George said he had based his objection on the ground that the information furnished was insufficient to proceed on in the manner Indicated by the resolutions. He characterized the Hawaiian affair as "a little riot in which only two or three people were killed." and said that no American had lost his lfe. nor had any American property been destroyed. Hence, he had

thought It wise that the Senate should delay action for further information. He said in reply to questions by Mr. Teller that the Senate had nothing to ao witn the rights of the President as' commander-in-chief of the army and navy in his disposal of these forces, "and we are not, said he, "called on with all our powers to give any advice ln the premises. Mr. George said the present Hawaiian government was one of force. It has secured its place by force, ar.d It was bound to maintain itself by force. There was no obligation on the United States to maintain that government. Wo might maintain the lives and property of American citizens in Hawaii, but the lives and property of American citizens were not assailed. "How will we protect America citizens In Hawaii when our war ships are in San Francisco?" interposed Mr. Kvle. Mr. George- answered that there was no oeo!on for the ships' to go to Hawaii. "We are sending them to Madagascar," suggested Mr. Allison derisively. Mr. George urged that there was no warrant in International or constitutional law for interference by the United States. Mr. Kyle urged briefly that the situation demanded Immediate action by the Senate. The United States navv was being distributed to Blueflelds, Madagascar everywhere but. Hawaii Mr. Caff en said he gathered from the published reports that the uprising was a fizzle, a fiasco. It had shown only one thing that the existing government, was amnly able to sustain itself. The Senator spoke against the annexation of the heterogeneous population of Hawaii. It would be against the best Interests of this country: to take such a people under our nag. "lhe policy of the President of the United States toward those islands has been marked by the utmost wisdom and sagacity,'" said Mr. Caffery. Mr. Frye then secured the passage of a resolution asking the Secretary of the Navy for information as to the surveys made of Pearl Harbor, Hawaiian Wands, by Ad-t miral Walker. At this point the hour of 2 oclock arrived, and as the Senate had previously fixed this time for hearing eulogies on the late Senator Vance, of North Carolina, the . Hawaiian resolution was laid aside. The tributes were heartfelt addresses, being made by Senators Ransom and Jarvis, Sherman, Morrill, Gray, Blackburn, George, Call, Chandler, Dubois and Bate. As a further mark of respect to the deceased the Senate at 5 o'clock adjourned. UOITELLE'S PATRIOTISM. It Finds Vent ln a Brief, VIgoroui Speech In the House. WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. There was an exciting incident in the House to-day when Mr. Boutelle, of Maine, tried to secure consideration of a resolution of sympathy for the Hawaiian government and expressing It to be the sense of the House that a United States war ship should be stationed at Honolulu to protect American interests. He made a characteristically Impulsive speech, denouncing the policy of the present administration towards Hawaii, and charged the rebellion against the republic fomented by the royalists and adherents of the discredited monarchy directly to that policy. The hour of 2 o'clock, which arrived shortly after Mr. Boutelle began his speech, cut him off, and a, scene of excitement followed when Mr. Boutelle attempted to have the special order (eulogies on the late Representative Lyle, of Kentucky) set aside, Tne gentleman from Maine continued his appeal until the Speaker was forced to rebuke him and order him to take his seat. The early part of the day was devoted to further consideration of the Indian appropriation bill, and the day, after 2 o'clock, to eulogies on the life and character of the late Representative L.yle, of Kentucky. When Mr. -Burrows entered the House shortly after the opening of the session, he was greeted with a round of applause. It was his first appearance since his election as United States Senator. The Speaker announced Mr. Burrows's retirement, at his request, as a member of the committee on rules and ways and means, and appointed to the vacancy on rules Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, and to the vacancy on ways and means Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio. The Senate amendments to the pension bill were disagreed to and the bill sent to conference. - Mr. Hartman asked unanimous consent for consideration of a resolution directing the Secretary of the Interior to suspend all action looking to the approval of selections and patenting to railroads of any lands selected under the rules Issued July 9, 1894, until Congress may dispose of the bill noir pending in the Senate and finally settle the question of the classification of granted lands. Mr. Hartman claimed that 1,092,000 acres of land were involved. Mr. Madiiox objected, but finally withdrew it. The ? objection was, however, renewed by Mr.,' Tracey. t . . ' A bill was . passed, on motion of Mr. Lynch, to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to correct errors where double allotments of land hare been made to Indians. - ; - .'-. The House then went into committee of the whole and resumed consideration of the Indian appropriation. After some debate Mr. Boutelle got the floor to offer the following resolution on the Hawaiian incident: "Resolved, That the House of Representatives has learned with profound regret and indignation of the bloodv attempt of the adherents of a discredited and deposed monarchy to overthrow the Republic of Hawaii, ln which a distinguished young officer of that government, of American lineage, had been killed while acting in its defense, and extends to thai republic as surances or the earnest sympathy or the representatives of the American peoole in its successful efforts to maintain its authority and. protect the lives and property of the neonle of those islands. "Resolved, That in view of the traditional policy ot the United States to afford moral support to the people of our own blood and kindred in establishing enlightened government in the Hawaiian Islands, and for the protection of the lives and important business interests of American citizens there, It Is the sense of this House that one or more suitable ships of the American navy should be stationed "at the Hawaiian Islands and retained there so long as there may be an apprehens'on of domestic insurrection or foreign interfer ence." Mr. Boutelle made an impassioned speech which Mr. McCreary vainly tried to interrupt. Mr. Boutelle, whose words gushed l'.ke a torrent, said: "I am not going Into details on this question. It Is not necessary. I am not going to say a word here that I do not know wH carrv with it the sympathy of nine-tenths of this House on both sides of the chamber.; I know there is no sympathy on the part of the Ameri can people or in the hearts of the Ameri can Congress, either on the Republican or Democratic sine, outside or a small co terie, that could be counted on the fingers of my hand, for the pol'cv wh'nh has led directly up to this tragedy in Hawaii. To dny I learned that one of my dearest youngfriends, a young man of American lineage. with blood that runs oacK to tsoston on th one hand and through the nVssionary stock that went there and redeemed those islands from barbarism, on the other, has fallen fighting to defend his home and fireside afinst an insurrection stimulated by the adherents of a discredited monarchy, and encouraged. I regret to say, ty the action of the executive government of the United State ln removing from te harbor of Honolulu the last vestlnre of the moral supTvort and sympathy of the people of the United States." At th' i point the Sneaker announced that, under a sneclal order, the remind?r of the dav would be devoted to eulogies on the We Renresentwtive Lisle, or Kentucky Mr Route'.l va'nlv sought tr hive the nrfler st pside temporarily until the reso lution de"red to nnr co-ilf be cored ered.

of American interests in view of the attempts at rebellion and disorder and conspirators endeavoring to overthrow the republican government. "Resolved, further. That steps should be taken to construct or promote the construction of a submarine cable from San Fancisco to Honolulu and that no part of the rights and privileges secure to the United States by Article 4 of the existingtreaty between the United States and the Hawaiian government should be abandoned or waived in order to enable any other government to secure a foothold or lease on any part of the Hawaiian islands." THl'RSTOVS ADVICES.

Brief Telegram front President Dole The Minister's View. WASHINGTON. Jan. 19. Exceedingly meager official advice of the trouble in Hawaii have been received by Mr. Thurton, the Hawaiian minister here. It came in a telegram from President S. B. Dole, sent via San Francisco, and reads as follows: "Rebellion broken. Leaders and remaining followers f ugutlves ln the mountains." The telegram, the minister think3, was written on the day the Alemeda left Honolulu. Replying to questions as to his probable course of action the Minister said he did not expect at present to call on the Secretary of State in connection with the trouble nor did he intend to ask that a United States ship be sent to Hawaii. "The. government is Itself able to put down the rebellion, he said, and needs no assistance. It is for the United States government to determine whether there exists a necessity to send a ship there to look after the interests of American citizens. Another telegram that has been received bv the minister was from Hawaiian Consul General Wilder, at San Francisco, and an nounced that the steamer Australia, wnose regular sailing day is to-day, would postpone her departure until Monday and that Mr. Hatch, the Hawaiian minister of foreign affirs, would return to awail aboard her. Mr. Hatch was visiting this country presumably in a private capacity and Minister Thurston believes he had no intention of coming to Washington. The postponement of the departure of the Australia will give to Mr. Thurston an opportunity to send any dispatches he may desire to his government although the change of date in sailing of the vessel was not made to accommodate him. "Do vou think the rebels will receive many accessions to their ranks and hold out very long against the govf-nment force f the minister was asKeo. toaay. "I do not. he replied. "The place they are now rendezvoused at is in a mountain about five miles from the city. Its area is so small that there is no possible chance for them to operate.' The place Is so well guarded that it is imposible for them to get any reinforcements. They are a disorganized, disorderly rabble that will run whenever ordered to tight. They never aid get within more than four miles of the city." "where do you suppose tne reDeis odtalned the cannon and ammunition they used?" was asked. "The cannon undoubtedly came from British Columbia. The ammunition came either from that country or from some where along the coast, our government has all along expected a shipment of ammunition and our officials have been on the watchout for it." In an Interview late last night, Minister Thurston said: "A name has not been mentioned in the report of the revolution of a single person of standing, responsibility or property who was in any way connected with the rebellion. It is self-evident that the rebels were utterly without any well formulated plan of action, as the places In which they were located arersome four miles above the city, ln a barren, desolate section, which, if they had held would have been of no advantage to them and If they, had captured the powder magazine at Punch Bowl it would have been of no benefit to them for it was .a magazine for commercial purposes, the government stores an Deing at tne paiace. "Do you think the revolution would have amounted to anything if the plans of the rebels had not been prematurely discovered?" was asked. "No," said Mr. Thurston. "It Is an illconceived piece of folly with no possibility of success against the government." "What do you think of tne . chances of this revolution being followed by any subsequent outbreaks?" St'I think the government will take such measures and will teach sucjh a lesson that there will be little danger of a repetition of this affair unless they (the rebels) receive further encouragement from abroad." "Are there any men. of note among the revolutionists?" "Absolutely none. Wilcox was a man who was a violent annexationist, w.ho was an applicant for office under the present government and when he did not get it turned Royalist. He is absolutely irresponsible. Nowiein is a saloon keeper. Fitzgerald is a horse jockey and was Carter's groom some little time ago. What the government will do with the revolutionists I don't know. Yes, we have laws against treason and we have the death penalty." "Does the government have any fear that the Japanese will aid the rebels?" "So far as the Japanese government Is concerned, I have nothing to say. So far as the Japanese local officials on the islands are concerned, they have shown themselves most zealous in behalf of good order. I have more or less apprehension as to the action the Japanese residents may take. They have shown a very turbulent and uneasy disposition recently. There are on the island about 26,000 Japanese residents, nearly all of whom are of the peasant class. Up to this time they have taken no part in politics." In conclusion the minister said he did not anticipate any foreign intervention in the present crisis. The only foreign vessel In the harbor of Honolulu at the time the trouble occurred was the Esmeralda, which had been purchased by Japan Indirectly from the Chilian government for use in its war with China. "But for the death of Mr. Carter," said the minister, "the whole thing might be considered a decided advantage to the government. No greater argument is necessary to demonstrate that the government Is able to stand on its own feet." - - The Kllllns of Carter. CHICAGO, Jan. 29. Fred W. Job, Hawaiian consul here, in an interview to-day, declared the killing of Carter in the fight at Honolulu was the result of the bitter personal enmity of Wilcox, . who is said to have been the leader of the Royalists. "Wilcox," said Mr. Job. "had long been an enemy of Carter, and is a man without principle. This man Wilcox ought to be shot as soon as taken," he said. "The Western law ought to apply to his case shoot him first and try him afterward to find out if. he were guilty or not." SAX FRANCISCO GOSSIP. The Philadelphia Preparing? to Sail AVhere Itoyullfits Got Arms. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 19. The rise and fall of. the Queen's supporters in Hawaii has created a great deal of excitement among the sympathizers In this country. The Chamber of Commerce held a short meeting to-day and forwarded a telegram to Secretary Gresham urging him to send a war ship at once to Honolulu. This was before It had been learned that Gresham had already ordered the Philadelphia to the islands. Anticipating orders to sail, the officers of the Philadelphia began preparations for -departure early this morning. They expect to get away to-morrow or Monday at the latest. The Philadelphia can steam to Honolulu in five days or even less If she Is pressed. She carries enough of a irew to put down the biggest rebellion the Hawaiians are capable of starting, and on her arrival at the island will immediately proceed to land troops for the protection of American property. The mission of C. W. McFarland, who arrived here in the early part of the month on the Arawa, 13 now believed to have been for the purpose of arranging for the shipment of arms to Honolulu. McFarland did not make a lengthy stay in San Francisco, but hurried back on the 12th of the month by the same steamer that he came up on. There is no way by which to prove positively that the Colonel dickered for guns and ammunition, but there are persons who favor the provisional government who are hinting that the wealthy merchant of Honolulu was in constant communication with parties in Victoria. This circumstance is regarded as suspicious. There seems to be one overdrawn story regarding the ex-Chilean cruiser Esmeralda. It is reported by Hawaiian correspondents that it was feared by the provisionals that i the vessel was purchased by the Royalists and mat sne wouia DomDard Honolulu just as soon as the steamer Alan eda was out of sight cf land. The Japanese government has semi-officlally announced that It has purchased the Esmeralda and that the vessel will . visit San Francisco when she is dispatched to Yokohama. Even were it so that the cruiser had been turned over to the Rovalists and that the story of her return t3 Japan was only a blind, the Philadelphia Is more than a match for her and can vanquish her In very short order. Though the first uprising may not have amounted to much, the revolt may spread tu othpr islands than the island of O.ihu. Honolulu is well protected and can stand off the Revolutionists, but the natives may be harder to suppress in other localities. Robert W. Wilcox, leader of the RevolutionU ta

when vptured, will undoubtedly be excuted. He is well remembered by civil engineers in this city, he having been employed here in the work of water works construction. At the headquarters of the Hawaiian consul there was little information to be gained concerning the uprising further than has already been published In the correspondence from Honolulu. From another and most reliable source, it was learned that the government officers at the islands had communicated a number of facts to its representatives ln this city by which it is expected to trace up the source of supply of arms which were obtained by the Royalists. In fact It is said that the representatives here shave already considerable proof against certain persons who are known to be friendly to the Royalists, and who are even now planning to send additional arms to the islands. , , ,. An effort is being made to locate the schooner Norma, which, it will be remembered, left Victoria nearly two months ago, supposedly for the islands with a lot of contraband opium. Another vessel is supposed to have left Victoria on a similar mission shortly after the Norma, and Deputy Collector of Port McStorker, who was here investigating opium smuggling, hurried back to the islands hoping to anticipate the plans of the smugglers. By the mail which arrived here previous to that of the Alameda, there came a letter from Deputy McStorker to the customs officers here stating that a vessel answering to the description of the Norma had been hovering off a neighboring island, but could not be overhauled because of the government s lack of a proper boat. It is now 'believed that the vessel was the Norma, but that, instead of having opium aboard, she, in reality, was loaded with arms. , . , The arrival here three weeks ago of Col. McFarland on the steamer Arawa and his sudden departure the same day on the steamer Australia," was also regarded as hav

ing dad somethin to do witn we preparations of the Royalists. The. -Lionel said his visit was purely a personal one, but shortly after he arrived here it was learned that he had received several telegrams from Victoria. It Is now believed that he came here to learn something about the Norma, and toeing advised that she was al ready on her way to the isianas, ne nurneu back home that same day. CORONER HUGHES'S CHARGES. Says a Doctor Offered ?400 for a Ver dict Where $125,000 Was at StaUe. SAN FRANCISCO Jan. 19. Coroner Hughes makes some sensational charges against Dr. Martin Regensbery, one of the city's most prominent physicians. The coroner charges that Regensbery offered him $400 If the jury which investigated the death of Charles Kohler found that his death was accidental. Kohler was a wealthy wine merchant, and was found dead in a Turkish bath establishment not long ago. He carried $125,000 insurance on his life, which his heirs could not collect if he committed suicide. There were symptoms of morphine poisoning, and it was known Kohler had been on a debauch. Regensbery is the family physician, and Hughes said the offer was on Denaii or tne jvonier muuiy. nusnra says he spurned the offer, Regensbery says he made no such offer, and that the charge is preposterous. The jury found that Kohler's death was accidental. GRADE CROSSING VICTIMS. Four Occupants of a Farmer's Wragron Struck by a Train. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 19. The Missouri Pacific train from the west in Kansas City, Kan., ran into a farmer's wagon at Quindora station to-day, smashing the vehicle and throwing the four occupants into the air. Fred Schevarman, a ten-year-old boy, was killed instantly. His neck was broken.' The boy's fat'her, F. Schevarman, and his brother August, aged thirteen years, were fatally injured. Otto Voigt, a twelve-year-old son of Lewi3 Voigt, of Clay county, Missouri, received Internal injuries and a fracture of the skull, which will probably result in, his death. The Schevarmans are farmers and were on their way to town for supplies. The crossing is on a curve hidden from the wagon road. An eye witness of the accident says the victims had no warning of the approaching train. Three Men Mangled, WILKESBARRE, Pa... Jan. 19. Alexander Dundrick, of Avoca, started to the Lehigh Valley depot in that place last night, accompanied by a party of friends. The wagon in which they were was struck by a train at a crossing and Dundrick was instantly killed. His brother died this afternoon from injuries received, and Alexander Spieck, another member of the party, was so badly hurt that he will die. FITZSIMM0NS INDICTED?

He said that he was a law-abiding citizen and would make ro effort to evade the authorities. "I was not responsible for poor Con's death," he said. "I am sure that I will be acquitted If the case ever comes to trial." Texas Cotton Palace Burned. WACO, Tex., Jan. 19. -The Texas cotton palace was destroyed by fire to-night, causing a loss of between $35,000 and,$75,00O to the palace association. . The exposition closed early in December and the enterprise proved such a success that the palace was to have -been reopened this year. Ow ing to the.1 highly inflammable material of which the exposition hall and large auditorium were constructed, the fire made great headway, and, within half an hour from the time of Igniting, the structure presented a dismal mass of ashes and brick. Padgitt's natatorium suffered a loss of $1,000. Insurance on cotton palace, $20,000. It is not known whether the building will be reconstructed. The loss has caused general regret.

P., who returned a few days ago from the United States, yesterday' made an address on America to the voters of Battersea. He spoke warmly of the hospitality he had received. He said there were more slums and degradation In New York than he ever saw in London. As an example of the tyranny of the police, he mentioned one occasion when a policeman ordered him to walk on the path anu not In the roadway. Mr. Burns declared that he squared up to the policeman and said: "Drop your hands or I'll break your jaw," whereupon the officer dropped his hand. Mr. Burns urged that in both England and America foreigners must be prevented from degrading the standard of comfort recognized ln those countries. Referring to the administration of justice, Mr. Burns said that the English judicial bench was theoretically perfect compared with that of America, where the capitalist bribed the Legislature, corrupted the Senate, squared the magistracy, chloroformed the military and bulldozed every civic official. If the English torles even could see how capitalists prostituted justice they would shoot them down as the Chicago strikers did. The American government never had a fair chance because monopolists possessed and ruled it. ; Mobbed the Vanished Traitor. LAROOCHELLE, France, j&n. 19.

T. B. REED'S SARCASM. He Tells How the Democrats 3Hht Cure the Financial Kvll. PAWTUCKETT, R. I.,. Jan. 19,--The Lincoln Republican Association entertained this evening Hon. T. B. Reed, of Maine, and Hon. Nelson A. Aldrich, of Rhode Island. Four hundred members of the club and guests sat down to the banquet. Mr. Reed, the principal speaker, received an ovation when, introduced. He said ln part: "That our revenues are less than our expenditures naturally leads to a feeling of distrust and the Democrats have tried to remedy it by having three sets of banks, being a six-horse team on a rough road with no reins to the leaders. They might have remedied this by making the revenues as great as expenditures. People take the lowering of the . gold - reserve for a lowering of the credit of the country. Something might have been seized on for an emergency for the purpose of raising the revenues, such as on beer, perhaps, and this might be done now. We cannot do this work. ' The President is Democratic, measureably so, and the Senate is likely to be -miscellaneous and the House cannot do It alone. So far as helping the Democrats out of their difficulties we will do nothing. So far as helping the people of this country we will do anything. I am utterly sure of the ultimate prosperity of this country. Great Is the United States ot America and the gates of Democracy shall not prevail against it." MANUFACTURERS' ALLIAXCE.

Concerning the manufacturers' convention which assembles in Cincinnati next Tuesday to form a national organization, ex-Senator Warner Miller said to-day: "I am in hearty accord with the object of the organization of a national manufacturers alliance. The United States ought to do ten times the trade with South America and Brazil which it does now. The mail which we send to Brazil mu3t first be sent to Liverpool and then back over to South America, simply because our government would not help sustain a mall service direct. Mail goes to Brazil daily from Europe. We ship to Liverpool one line of goods and then the ships reload and go tcf Brazil. A national association will help bring about direct trade with the United States and this commerce will give us enlarged market for our products and manufactured wares. There will be present 1,000 delegates at Cincinnati. I go to represent the paper manufacturers." HELD UP IN TOLEDO. Robbery- According to the Bill Cook Style in that City. TOLEDO, O., Jan. 19.
