A SUGAR SCOOP.
4 scheme TO Annex the Hawaiian
Islands.

Islands.
WASHINGTON, January 26.-Ihe impress
sion Is getting abroad that Mr.. Claus
Spreckels, the San Francisco sugar king, II
he can not prevent the abrogation OF the
Hawaiian treaty, intends to make an effort
10 have the Hawaiian islands annexed to
The United States. In 1875, when the Hawa-
iisD treaty was negotiated this was urged
with great forcr. Mr.. SpreCkels, II oblec-
tions are urged m the part OF the Hawa-
ians, has the m, rs in his power to remove
them. lie could nth advantage TO his own
interests pension the royal family. His re-
sources are such that he could afford to
ray the king far more than the revenues
he Islands yield him. Quite a namber o
Senators were asked what their individual
views were With regard TO the annexation
scheme, and what kind Of reception such
scheme would meet at the hands Of the
American people. Senator ingalls, said
tat be was in favor of annexation, bu;
not IN that direction. He thought that the
United states ought TO extend from the
north pole to the point where the canal
Nl..h is 10 unite the two oceans is TO be.
He d1i not believe, however, in reaching
o., after colonies in the Atlantic or Pacific
ocean. In fact he
Did Not Want Any Colonies.
Senator kellogg didn't believe there was
much IL the Claus SpreCkels talk about
arreNatiOn. He did not think that Hawaii
would be any benefit TO US in any way.
senator Jones was opposed to annexation
iOr the reason that il would interfere with
our sugar industry in Louisiana. The same
sryument he said, that was used to bring
about the abregation OF the Hawaiian
treaty was aprOpOs TO annexation. Sena-
Tor Logan said he did not favsr it
and did not believe the American people
would. Senator MaXey said that, independ-
emily of commercial reasons, the Hawaiian
Islands would be a valuable acquisi-
Ton from a political standpoint. They
sre. he said, on the shortest route between
tbs country and China and Japan, aud on
The shortest route by way Of the Suez canal
between Europe and the east Pacific coast
il case Of war, the islands would be in
valuable as a native station. He said that
while he did not believe in acquiring ter
r,ory so far from the main land, he would
probably favor the annexation scheme If
Tie opportunity presented itself Senator
George declared he was in favor OF getting
control OF all the territory within our
reach He believed in anneXing Cuba,

quite a number Of other Senators were
spoken to on the subject. and, while vari-

The Last Victim OF the Cumberland
Wreck F0nnd.
CUMBERLAND, January 26.-The search
for the remains of Harry Baldwin in the
debris at Percy's rayine was continued
yesterday with force largely increased.
The effort until noon proved fruitless,
though men risked their lives in crawl
ing under the debris and in the crevices
of the mass. Persons who had searched
every foot of ground from the ra-
vine to the Montell crossing, gave up the
search, and returning to the rayine joined
the force there at work. About l o'clock
Mr.. Daniel Hagerty, in lifting an iron
sheet that was once part oil hopper, saw
some clothing, and at once raised the cry
that the remains were found. Inc met,
Immediately gathered around the spot, ana
with their hands began to remove carefully
the coal and pieces OF iron about the pody,
which was lying with the
Face Downward.
No tools or implements were used. The
two brothers and two brothers-lnlaw Oh
the deceased started to assist in extricat-
ing the body, but the remains were In such
a mangled condition the brothers could moi
witness the slght, anu 80 Wolo- SoAhfSAiSe
to leave the work to others.
The corpse, which was found near the
middle of the pile, but somewhat nearer the
surface than the bottom, was horribly torn.
One arm was entirely off the body. The
skull was crushed and the scalp came for
ward over the face, covering the latter
completely, The side OF the face was also
mashed in. One Of the legs was stripped
of flesh from the thigh to the ankle. The
flesh on the remaining wrist was torn from
the bone and other parts were in condi
tion impossible to describe. There is nc
question but that death was instan taneous
It is supposed, judging, from the place
where the body was found, that Baldwin
who was a fireman, left the engine to assist
in putting down the brakes, and was or

The remains were brought to this city.

For a time he occupied seat on the floor,
laughing and talking to some of the Re-
publican Senators, apparently ridiculing
the sentiments uttered by the orators.

False Figures.

WASHINGTON, January 26-Mr. Tucker, of
Virginia, expresses the opinion that the
tables prepared by the Treasury Depart.
ment showing increase or reduction OF
revenue in schedules are deceptive. He
says that many of the reduction of revenue
are obtained by carrying duties up to the
prohibitory point, thus really increasing
taxation, and it is assumed that the
revenue will be cut down. The probability
is there will be increased importations and
increased revenues.

PITTSBURGH, January 26.-The pig iron
market is in a very unsatisfactory condl-

principal feature continues, and no i'm.
provement is expected until Congress takes
some definite action or the tariff question.
Dealers report prices very weak and still
tending downward. Plenty of inquiries
are made for the best brands, but at a
considerably lower figure than they feel
justified in accepting. Standard neutral
forge is quoted at $40 50@2l 90, 4 mos.

for while and everything was lovely.
With his accustomed fckleness, however,
he soon deserted his last paramour and
sought pastures fresh. To this the dis.
carded one took exception and in short
made up her mind to make it lively for the
one who had so basely left her after salts
flying his debased appetite. To this end, it
IS said she consulted an attorney, who ad-
vised her to bring suit for 5000 damages
and also bring action against him for adult
cry and bastardy. The warrant for his
arrest has already been issued or at least a
reliable party from PittsOurg gives this as
his opinion. Whatever the outcome may
be the case promises to be a rich one and
the supposed high toned circles of Fayette
society will be shaken from center to cir.
cumference. The case is also one to be de-
plored, especially when it is considered
that the chief actor in the little farce is one
who wanted to reform his own political
party, but who now finds himself in sore
need Of social and moral reformation.

has for long time been recreant to the
vows he made at the altar, and in conse-
quence the wife whom he swore to cherish
has been pining in solitude and declining
in health on account of the unholy habits
Of her lord. The latest freak OF this party
spoken OF was to make a trip to several
towns in the county accompanied by wO'
man whose fame is not too fair. The fact
of his so doing would not have leaked out
had he not introduced the woman to seve-
raj persons as his wife, As far as he was
