An Immense demand Is being made each day on the Postoffice Department for the establishment of rural free delivery route3 throughout Indiana. These requests are most heavy from the following congressional districts: Seventh, Representative Jesse Overstreet; First, Representative J. A. llemenway; Sixth, James E. Watson, and Tenth, Representative E. D. Crumpacker. From the districts enumerated have been received numerous requests for the establishment of. rural free delivery, but few of these have been granted. The Investigations inj conditions in Indiana relative to free delivery will proceed a3 near as possible in the order in which petitions have been rereived. To-day Inspector Rathbcne, of the Postoffice Department, was dispatched to the Indianapolis district and conclusion of his labors there will proceed in Hemenway's, Watson's and Crumpackcr's districts. Strong petitions are in the possession of the Postoffice Department for the establishment of a rural free delivery route out of Lexington, Scott county.

The Treasury Department has issued a warrant in favor of Admiral George Dewey lor $'..570 on account of prize money found to be due him by the Court of Claims for the destruction of the Spanish fleet in Manila, harbor May 1, lsl'S. The first provincial squadron of cavalry, now In course of organization at the PreFidlo. San Francisco, has been assigned as the first squadron of the Fifteenth United States Cavalry and ordered to prepare for early service in the Philippines. Friends of ex-Scnators Carter, Shoup and Thurston, whose terms have expired, tendered them a complimentary dinner at the Shoreham last night. About thirty covers were laid. The .dinner was attended by senators, representatives, nrmy officers and newspaper men who have been intimate friend? of the senators. The Senate, In executive session, has ratified an agreement with various Euroitan powers fcr the amendatlon of the featy made at Brussels some years since lor the protection of industrial property as Affected by the registration of patents, trade marks, etc. The modifications made ly tho agreement are not of general interest. The reciprocity treaties were not iircussed yesterday, and it now appears that they will not be called up this session. The unofficial reports current some time ego that Lord Pauncefotc, the British ambassador, would have his period of service in Washington continued have now been Xully confirmed, arid It appears that the extension will last throughout the present year and is likely to be followed by another extension owing to the ambassador's vigorous health and thorough acquaintance with nil of the important international questions in which the two governments are interested. The commission created by Congress to select a site and secure plans for a statue or memorial to General Grant has been In WEATHER FORECAST.

CHICAGO, March 7. "The principles of American liberty have been consecrated for the world at large. They journey far and wide. No Monroe doctrine can hold them between the Atlantic and the Pacific. Wherever the flag of our country floats there Is freedom and liberty. It Is not for me to discuss the legal question as to whether the Constitution does or does not follow the flag. This I do dare say, that if it be true the Constitution does not follow the flag according to law let ua pray that the law be changed." This was the climax of an address by Archbishop John Ireland to the local cominandery of the Loyal Legion at its banquet at Kinsley's to-night. It brought volleys of cheers and repeated salutes from the veteran army officers who-listened to it, and the applause continued so long that many of the words of the speaker were lost in the noise.

HAWAIIAN LEGISLATURE
3ii:mri-:ks coxdictivi iusiness i.v DCIt 31 A SY I)l!AI)VAMA(ii:s. Engli-'ih Mint lie Spoken nnd Iuter preter Are Kept Ilusy Territorial Secretary Ejected. HONOLULU, March 1, via San Francisco, March 7. The first territorial Legislature of Hawaii began Its sessions in Honolulu on the 20th of last month and has been in session ever since. On the; third day of the session Secretary of the Territory Cooper was unceremoniously ordered out of the house and escorted out by the ser-geant-at-arms. Acting under the section of the territorial act which provides that he "shall record and preserve the laws and proceedings of the Legislature," Secretary Cooper took up a place on the floor of tho House with a stenographer to secure a record of the proceedings. Representative Meckley, Independent, offered a resolution requiring him to leave. The resolution set forth that his presence on the floor was a violation of the rule that the three departments of the government executive, judicial and legislative must be kept separate, and it was urged in debate that Governor Dole had put Cooper where he was with a view to Intimidating members by letting them see that the executive office was taking a stenographic report of the proceedings. Cooper was declared by Republicans to Le present as a representative of President McKinley, as he had been ordered to transmit a report to Washington, but even this plea did not deter the Independents. After long debate the Beckley resolution passed by a vote of 20 to 9, the nine being ill' the Republicans in the House. With both houses in control of the Independent Home Rule party and containing a majority of native Hawaiians, the Legislature has already been the scene of some remarkable proceedings, und the end of the session promises to see many radical measures adopted, among those to which the controlling party is committed being a liluor dispensary law, a taxation system that will be a combination of single tax and Income tax doctrines, an election law based on proportionate representation, and a law excluding from the Territory all persons who may arrive afllicted with consumption or leprosy. The question of languages is another source of trouble. The organic act says that all proceedings of the Legislature shall be conducted in the English language. Half of the members cannot speak English, and Hawaiian Interpreters have been employed in both houses. It is the opinion of some lawyers that this will invalidate all proceedings, and this matter will come before the courts when some laws have been passed. Chief Justice Frear and Governor Dole, who were members of the commission that adopted the rule in question, have expressed the opinion that it intended to provide that no language but English should be spoken. The Independents claim that laws and resolutions, etc.. shall be in English. Every measure and every speech is being given in both English and Hawaiian. Tho House meets in the throne room of the old palace, now occupied by government offices. The speaker's chair is the former throne of Hawaiian monarchs. The steamship Zealandia has arrived here with 761 Porto Ricans from Port Ixs Angeles. Three of the immigrants died on the way. The immigrants are being sent In steamers to various plantations. It is reported that the Zealandia is to make several trips as a carrier of Porto Ricans, and that at lea:t 5.0H) more will be brought here by her in the near future. The Interisland Telegraph Company has given formal notice of the opening for business of the wireless telegraphy- system between Honolulu and the Island of Maul. The system has long been under tests, but is now pronounced satisfactory for regular business. The Capital states that it will soon extend communication to Hilo. Annual meetings of several sugar plantations have been held here this week. The managers report large crops and good prospects for the coming year. Most of them report having had some difficulty on account of the scarcity of labor. In some cases the acreage planted was slightly lessened on account of the lack of labor. The managers all report the labor system improved, and it is said now that many Porto Ricans are being brought here, there will be no further trouble. William Marshall, formerly editor of the Volcano, has been released from Oahu jail on pardon from Governor Dole. He was sentenced for six months for criminal libel of the late Chief Justice Judd and had served four months. PEARS TO BURY HER ALIVE. Ecntlrt AVI11 ot Permit Tmlertakerfl to Prepare "Wife Body for CJrnve. NEW YORK, March 7. Dr. Jordon Doranlc Dow, a dentist, whose wife died on Tuesday afternoon, refuses to believe his wife Is dead and declines to permit the undertakers to prepare the woman for funeral. Mrs. Dow was Teresa Evans, of Wllkesbarre. Pa. Dr. Dow says his wife once had a period of suspended animation, and he believes she may come back to life this time. Coroner's Physician Williams, after examining the body to-day, said that the woman was dead and that decomposition had commenced. This afternoon Dr. Williams performed an autopsy on the body of Mrs. Dow, as she died suddenly, and death was found to be due to tuberculosis. Not until the autopsyhad been begun would Dr. Dow admit that his wife was dead. He now refuses to leave the undertaking establishment where the body lies, and a special room has been provided for him. The body will be shipped to Minnesota on Saturday. LATIN-AMERICAN NOTES.

The Mexican government will send twenty rurales, members of Mexico's crack cavalry corps, to the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo. Bull fighters have been engaged for the Buffalo exposition and will give an exhibition of all the feats not requiring torture or killing of bulls.

It is reported that President Castro, of Venezuela, has sent some r0,000 to NewYork for the use of General Uribe-Urlbe, to be expended In munitions of war for the Colombian insurgents. It Is an open secret that the Colombian rebels are the friends of Castro, while the government of Colombia Is on the most friendly terms with Andrude. The Judicial congress, composed of two delegates from each of the Central American countries, appointed by their respective governments, which has been hiding sessions at San Salvador, Salvador, for the last month, has declared that hereafter all exchange of products of each state with the other states of Ctntral America shall be free ef Imposts or duties.

The Naples correspondent of La Reforma, of Brussels, says that the Duke of Orleans, moved by the insults offered to the royalist rarty. Intends to go to Brussels with a view of intervening in the conflict provoked by the Deroulede-Buffet affair. The London- Board of Trade Jurnal warns British manufacturers that the report of a British commercial agent in the United States shows that American boots and shoes are capturing markets where British goods ought to have a practical monopoly. Ten persons were killed and many injured at Gelscnklrchen, Prussia, yesterday, by an explosion of fire lamp in the Consolidation mine. It is feared that others are entombed.

Prince Ferdinand, in the course of his speech at the opening of the Bulgarian Sobranje yesterday, said the new Cabinet should devote itself to terminating the financial crisis and to endeavoring to strengthen the ties uniting Bulgaria with her liberator, Russia, as well as to cultivating close relations with others, notably with bordering states. The Vienna correspondent of the London Dally Express says: "Several Hungarian villages have been Isolated by the floods. AH along the banks of the Danube and its tributaries great damage has been done. The lower quarter of Buda-Pesth is flooded to a depth of live feet. The bitter cold is driving wolves from the Carpathian mountains to the villages below. They have killed twelve people during the last four weeks." The French Chamber of Deputies yesterday adopted Article 12 of the law of associations after rejecting by a vote of 472 to W an amendment proposed by M. Vaillant. Socialist, adding the word "religious" to associations with the object of not hindering the spread of labor associations. The premier, M. Waldeck-Rousseau, pointed out that the law must deal with all associations in order to place the government in a position to protect national security. Baron Von Stumm-Halberg and Herr Krupp have now offered Admiral Von Tirpitz. the German naval secretary, armor plate at a reduced price, but the figures are still 222 marks above American prices. Consequently the budget committee of the Reichstag, with but one dissenting vote, that of Count Von Kardoff, has adopted the resolution asking the co-operation of the Bundezrath in -stablishing works for the manufacture of armor plate. Baron Von Stumm-Halberg is now lying critically ill. In the Italian Chamber of Deputies yesterday tho new premier, Slgnor Zanardelli, made the ministerial statement.

Th? proposal that the Victorian memorial shall take the form of a structure near the Abbey, or possibly at Buckingham Palace, wlih a statue of tho Queen as its most promnunt feature, is condemned as inadequate, says the New -York Tribune's London corrtrpondent, and the King is expected to ref-r it back to the committee with a sujjgestl.-m for a more comprehensive scheme. It-would probably Involve the erectio!. of an Isolated and Inartistic valhalla. with a statue by Onslowford and would I;' a commonplace memorial of a unique character and reign.

The result will be a deadlock, it Is predicted, though there is hope for Senator Thomas II. Carter. He is the only Republican in Montana who stood the least show of securing fusion votes. The Democrats are divided. A score stay with 11aginnis, F. Augustus Heinze's mine manager. Other Democrats the "straights" stay with H. L. Frank, the Butte millionaire. Seven Independent Democrats, with others, have formed the field. Long ago the Republican minority knew that Lee Mantle stood no show, and Senator Carter was substituted. Carter's closing act in Congress on the day of his exit from the Senate, when he dealt the coup de grace to the river and harbor bill, augmented his senatorial chances mightily. At noon yesterday the eglslature met and took the usual perfunctory ballot. The result was the same as for days. An adjournment of the joint session was then had till 7 p. m. Meantime both houses pushed through numerous bills waiting on the calendar. At 7 o'clock the balloting was resumed. After taking several fruitless ballots the joint assembly took a recess until-11:15 p. m. The last ballot stood: Carter, 02; Frank, ; Maginnis, 24; Cooper, 5; Conrad, 1; Illgglns, 1. After reassembling at 11:13 the joint assembly at once began balloting. On one ballot Frank had as high as forty-two votes five short of an election. On thj next ballot he fell off again. Frank and Maginnis are the leaders on the fusion side. Shortly after 12 o'clock, actual time, the Republicans objected to further balloting, claiming the time for election had expired. Their protest was not heard, however, the clock having been stopped before it indicated midnight. There is nothing to indicate when the election will occur, If at all. It develops that as the sergeant-at-arms was about to turn the hands of the clock back at midnight one of the Republican members, Gregory, of Carbon county, tried to stop him in order to prevent an election. In the struggle the time record for fast fighting was broken, along with the clock. 1 a. m. The twelfth ballot resulted as follows: Carter, 31; Frank, 27; Illgglns, 12; Maginnis, 8; Cooper, 6; Conrad, 4; Gibson, 3. Other Legislatures.

There was a great crowd present when the joint assembly of the Delaware Assembly met yesterday to ballot for two United States senators,- but the rumored break to J.

The bill was Introduced in the interest of the Younger brothers, who are serving life sentences for participation in the famous Northfield Bank raid in September, 1S76. As finally passed the bill was amended so that it will require the written consent of each member of the pardon board before a life prisoner can be paroled. This practically leaves the matter as it is at present. Another amendment adopted prohibits the paroled prisoner from exhibiting himself in any dime museum as a curiosity. TELEGRAPH MISCELLANY.
