THE TRESEDER CONSPIRACY,
He Develops the Plan to MURRAY.
and Murray Gives 1t Away.

Thomas Murray, the party importuned
by Frank Treseder to murder Messrs
Dickson, Ireland and Franks, was before
the Grand Jury to-day, and it is more
than probable that before that BODY

established against the N. V. Jones

weeks ago, and made overtures looking
to the accomplishment of the hellish
deed alluded to in the comnlaint.

previously been notified of the
TACT, however, and of course
the killing did not take place. Treseder.

a close watch on his confederate all the

Must Pay Over the AlimOny,

James III. Radon was arrested las
night by one of Marshal Ireland's depu
ties and has been held in custody all to
day awaiting the action of the Marsha
and the court. Radon was separated
some time ago by divorce from Elizabeth
Radon, his former wife, and the court
decreed alimony to the extent of SIC
per month. A year ago Judge Zaue
granted temporary suspension of ali
mony and the case has rested there I'M
TIL last week, when Judge Foreman
issued an order requiring Radon either
to pay over the accumulated alimony or
stand committed for contempt. The
probability is he will go to the peniten-
tlary, as he asserts his inability to meet
the obligation.

Grand Army Ball Tonight.

Messrs. ]. H. Edgerly and W. H
Hamilton have been busy all day deco
rating the interior of the Wake,

FOR THEIR RELIGIONS SAKE.
Hyrum Golf and William Jenh9
Take the Regular Dose FRO"
Judge Zane To-day.


Judge Zane this morning sent two more
unlawful cohabitation convicts up for the
prescribed term of six months, and also
assessed the usual fine of $500 and costs
in both cases. They were Hyrum Cot
and VIM. Jenkins, of West Jordan, and
they accepted the inevitable with martyr
like resignation, and entertained their
friends and relations in the Marshal's
waiting-room during the hours that inter
vened prior to the departure of the peni-
Tertiary wagon. They had prepared no
sermon for the Court, and the Court was
correspondingly happy. At a late hour
this afternoon they were taken out and
assigned to their new quarters, where,
like the street car, there is always room
for one more.

EX-REGISTER McMASTER'S CASE.
He Is Left In the Dark Regarding
the Action of Senator Walthal.

The announcement which came oyel
the wires from Washington Monday night
that Senator Walthal, of Mississippi, had
asked for the papers in the matter of the
suspension of Mr.. III. McMaster, ex-Land
Register for Utah, occasioned not little
surprise in Salt Lake, as it had been very
generally understood that Mr.. McMaster
had made no effort whatever to be re-
tanned in Office A reporter met the ex-
Register yesterday afternoon, and re-
marked:
81 see they are looking into your sue
cessor's appointment, according to the
dispatches. Do you know anything about
it, Mr.. McMaster?"
'sNo; not a word;" was the reply. ~
had not heard syllable in connection
with it till 1 read the press dispatch this
morning."
'Do you think any of your friends are
interposing, back East, in the matter?"
'No; am confident they are not for
1 wrote back sometime before the new
appointment was made requesting that
nothing be said or done looking to my
being retained in office OF course l felt
that there was no dishonor in quitting
my position under the circumstances of
radical change of administration Had
there been any charges against me, or
even the least dissatisfaction, to occasion
my removal, I should have taken stand |!
and made good fight, you may be as
sured but as it was, was contented to |
let things take their natural course"
"Have you any idea as to what in
fuence is at the back of Senator Walthal's
action? ?"
'sNone whatever; and the most
astonishing thing in the whole affair is
that a Democratic Senator should cham
pion my cause. really am at loss to
even surmise the cause of the incident.
and shall await in as much ignorance as
anyone the receipt of light on the sub
ect."

The Merry Makers.

Mr.. Wash Norton's Merry Makers
gave their third performance at the
Hawaiian Opera House last night with
a change of programme. The first part
opened with one of Mr. Norton's laugh
able farces entitled "The Electric Bel
lows" after which Mr. H. Norman sang
"The Village Blacksmith" by Wiess.
Mr.. Wash. Norton next introduced his
original songs and jokes accompanied
by the bones, banjo, and tambourine.
Mr. Norton's jokes were all new and
kept the audience in laughter for TWEEN
ty minutes. The Japanese fiddle was
omitted for want of time.
After the usual intermission, part
second commenced with "a burlesque
sketch entitled "Knock me Down.
The piece was performed by Messrs
Norman and Leroyle. 1t was noticed
that all the auctioneers in the house
loudly applauded whenever the "Knock
me Down" came in. Mr.. Wash. Nor
ton repeated his character changes,
which lost none of their zest by the
repetition The "old maid" especially
caused the bachelors in the audience
to hide behind their hats Mr.. H.
Norman, who by the way has one OF
the best trained voices Honolulu has
ever paid to hear, then sang Barker's
song, "The White Squall," after which
Mr.. Leroyle sang "McSorley's Twins
Mr.. Wash. Norton then performed with
the dancing skeleton and explained its
action and mystery as clearly as the
AdaegtiSer ever explained the conss
tepcy of the Governments policy
The evenings entertainment closed
with most laughable and ridiculous
farce entitled "Jumbo, the Wonderful
Elephant" which was whole circu:
and side-show in itself.
The troupe will probably go to the
other Islands in few days, and will
likely give another performance wher
they return to Honolulu.

which rehners have kept out of the

and almost wholly nominal. Our

1t is possible that the tariff bill which a
committee appointed for that purpose
is about to present to Congress may
be having some effect on prices Of raws,
and the continued disposition Of Re

than actually necessary. This bill is
supposed to recomend reduction of
