Mataafa is King.

SAN Francisco. Oct. 26.-The Asso.
ciated Press correspondent at Apia, I'M
der date of Oct. Q. confirms the election
Of Mataafa as king of Samoa by chiefs OF
the various districts. 1t was expressly
provided that Mataafa should serve as
king only until the agreement entered in.
to by the three foreign powers should 90
into effect; then, If necessary a new cleo
ton should be held. Tamasese's followers
did not signify their assent to the cleo
ton.
The correspondent states that a number
of Tamasese's followers on the island of
Savaii made an attack on some of Ma.
taata's followers. Mataaia's chlefe de-
cided to punish them for this action and
100 warriors left Apia Oct. 10 for Savaii.
The departure Of the warriors for Savaii
makes certain that a battle occurred on
on that island as reported in the cable
dispatches yesterday.

CHICAGO, Oct. 26.-The Cronin trial
was resumed this morning and evidence
continued showing the character of the
wounds and the u of the death.
| After DR.. Moore had testified at great
length and mInuteness of the wounds on
DR.. Cronin's body, the defense moved to
exclude his testimony on the ground that
be had read a verbatim account of the
| trial made by the Associated Press in this
morning papers, which gave the testi-
mony of DR.. Egbert. They argued that
| the physician read this knowing he was to
testify and that the order of the court ex-
fcluded witnesses while testimony was be-
ing taken, yet the reading OF the testi
mony had precisely the same effect as
hearing it. Judge Mcconnell held that
it was beyond his power to remedy the
matter and overruled the motion.
Pat Oman, livery stable keeper, then
testified that Coughlin. one of the priso-
ners, engaged a horse and buggy for a
| friend on the day Cronin was murdered.
The friend came in the evening and took
out a white horse and buggy. The next
day Coughlm cautioned witness not to
say anything about his connection with
the matter as it was known hat he and
Cronin were not friends and might get
him (Coughlin) into trouble. This is the
horse and buggy in which Cronin was
carried to his death.
After a long and severe cross ami
ton of Oman by Mr.. Forrest of the coun-
sci for the defense, in which the witness
was not at all confused, the court ad-
journe1 until Monday morning.

LONDON. Oct. 26.-There is load lam
entation among the possessors OF Per,
sian bank snarcs, for news comes from St.
Petersburg that the Shah presented to a
number OF favored Russians precisely the
same monopoly for a bank which Baron
Reu'er secured from his highness here and
SO there are already two big companies in
the field.
Baron Reuter- is furious. Sixteen years
ago on the occasion of the shah's last visit
the baron paid the expenses of the costly
iaunt and got concessions which would
have been worth millions if the royal con-
idence man had not repudiated every one
of them the moment he set foot again in
his own dominions.
During his las last visit it is now said
that the Shah found the Barons duns
rather troublesome and to quit him gave
him a lot of choice concessions. 1t looks
now as though the Shah had repudiated
this agreement as he did the first and
that the baron is again the victim of
sharp practice.

The U. p. Combination.

oINtAaA DAoBhl1h " ~ 1C1ldtI
OMAHA, Oct. 26.-Vice President Hol-
comb, with reference to the Northwest
ern- Vanderbilt Union Pacific deal, states
that the agreement is limited to ten years
in every particular, not excepting the
Omaha & Republican Valley, as stated in
the dispatches. He also stated that I'M
der the new arrangement the Union Pa
ci6c would furnish SO per cent of the roll
ing stock required in the through service,
and that no contract with the palace car
companies would be affected. The Union
Pacific will continue to run Pullman cars
and the Northwestern will continue Its
Wagner cars.
There is much speculation as TO what
the Union Pacific intends to do with the
Kansas division. as it is not included in
the agreement. 1t is reported on good
authority that the Kansas division is the
key to another arrangement which means
the making of a similar agreement with
the Chicago & Alton as was made with
the Northwestern. 1t is admitted that
the Kansas division was eliminated from
the agreement owing to a deal that is
pending with the Chicago & Alton.
Vice President Holcomb would not
DENY that a traffic arrangement involving
the Kansas division and the Alton was
pending bu. stated that nothing definite
in this direction had been accomplished.
1t is thought that the Alton will be in
Guided in the combination together with
the Kansas division at an early date.

ace Plunkett, who has lately come out
from his home in England. Twelve guests
gathered around the festal board. Toasts
and sparkling post prandial speeches made
the air ring with merriment long after the
hour when most good people are calmly
resting in the arms of Morpheus"
Mr.. Plunkctt is very much interested in
the woman suffrage question and has
Just published a circular, containing a list
Of questions, to which he requests CONT
dental replies. Perhaps through Mr..
Plunkett brother, who is an influential
member of parliament, these questions
may become an important subject of dis
cussion in English politics, where | fancy,
it now ranks with the Deceased Wife's
Sister " bill. which always affords a sub
iect for parliamentary relaxation when
weightier matters are held in allegiance.
There has recently been formed among
the gentlemen in town a Whist club, con-
tanning twelve or nine members. Once
every week these devotees to the shrine
of science, spend the evening in endeav-
oring to persuade tickle fortune to play
with their hands.
Mr.. Paul Brewster entertained at the
club on Wednesday night and a most en-
ioyable evening was spent.
Thursday being Mr.. I. B. Adams
natal day. he was delightfully."- surprised
by a gathering of intimate friends who
bore down upon him with so many good
wishes and hearty congratulations, that
the modest candidate for legislative hon
ors, not being accustomed to being an OBJ
ject of public interest, was almost overcome.
The evening was spent in dancing and
games. One very pleasant feature being
a huge and toothsome birthday cake,
lighted with glowing tapers and contain
ing a ring which would insure the lucky
finder all sorts of good luck and fortune
for the coming year.
Last night Gilmore's famous band, ac-
c%ompanied by a number of vocalists de-
lighted us with sweet strains. 1t certainly

only wish that the inhabitants of the far

Important Change in Trans
continental Fast Mail.
Nearly a Full Day Gained
From Ocean to Ocean.
The New Schedule to Take
Effect Nov. 10

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-General Su.
perintendent Bell Of the railway mail ser.
vice has made public an important change
in the transcontinental fast mail to take
effect Nov. 10, 1889. On March 4, 1889,
the time going West from New York to
San Francisco was 12S hours and fifteen
minutes. which was reduced to lis hours
and forty-hve minutes on MAY 4, 1889.
and by November the schedule fast mail
time going West from ocean to ocean will
be l08 hours and forty five minutes. One
very important feature is the fact that the
train will reach San Francisco early In
the day and the mail will be distributed
by 10 a. IN.
On March 4 the time from San Fran
cisco to New York was AL hours. On
May 4 the time was reduced to III hours.
The new schedule will reduce the time
from ocean to ocean to Ill hours and
forty minutes. that is. four days. fifteen
hours and thirty minutes. leaving San
Francisco at 7 p. m. after the close OF
business and arriving at New York at
10:45 a. m. with the mails SO assorted as
to permit of immediate delivery.
This is a gain of twenty-ninc hours and
thirty minutes on the March schedule and
a gain of nineteen hours and thirty min
utes on May schedule, but as the arrivals
at both ends will be in the morning in
stead of the evening it means a gain of a
full day over the May schedule in both
directions.
The service for the large cities will be
adjusted to unite with the transcontinen-
tai train at either Chicago, Council Bluffs
or Omaha so that the advantages will be
reflected throughout the entire East and
West.
There will be no changing of cars west
of Omaha, a distance of ] $40 miles. The
new arrangement carries with it some
very important features, as the general
superintendent of the railroad mail ser
vice will hereafter have the right to fix
the schedule from ocean to ocean, pro-
vided it is not made faster han the
quickest limited passenger trains over the
same lines.
This new service is said to be of the
highest importance tie the transcontinent-
al business interests of the country.
