THE HAWAIIAN cARLE.
Futher Interviews with Prominent San
Francisco Merchants.


SAN FRANc1sco,, Feb. 22.-Merchants
and men of influence here are much in
terested in the Hawaiian cable proceed
ings. Several of them interviewed today
said:
Captain William Merry: 1.-The
Hawaiian and Australian cable will be
of great benefit to the United States,
and especially SO to San Francisco. The
projected connection with the Farallone
islands is a minor advantage, increasing
its usefulness. Honolulu will become II
port of call and a coaling station when
the e5GentFal1z Annericase canal -isz eemPlet-
ed, and this will make the cable still
more valuable"
Adolph SpreekIes, 1.-THE United
States should control any cable that may
be laid to the Hawaiian islands. Our
commercial interest in the islands alone
warrant this. If any foreign. power
would simply derive their revenue from
leving toll upon American commerce" ("
ID. A. Mckinley, Hawaiian consul /:
'TThe island wants a cable and we think
you ought to want it still more. We are
willing to give a liberal subsidy, and the
American government should not be
backward in aiding in every way an en-
terprise that affects her in so many
wavs.''
Frank Jaynes, superintendent of the
| Western Union Telegraph Company
81 consider the plan entirely feasible
but LIDO not think it will pay the pro
| iectors. As to the benefit we will derive
Throughout the country there is no ques
ton. The advantages seem only too ap
parent. The Importance from a politiea
veiw is even greater tnan from the com
lmercial standpoint: Undoubtly thu
government should see to it that the ca
Bile is laid and remain under American
control"

cLEvELAND,s LETTER.
what watterson of the -.conrier-Jour-
+- nall, Says. ,-.&.

nal' Says.
NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The Herdid's
Louisville correspondence telegraphed
/ found Mr.. Watterson in his office in
the Courier J0arndt building this after
noon, and asked him what he thought
of Mr.. Cleveland's statement in regard
to his candidacy. Mr.. Watterson said
"It is yet too early to speak very posi-
lively about thenext democratic national
convention. The attitude of the demo-
Gratis of the west and south toward the
free coinage of silver and Mr.. Cleyeland's g
letter creates dissonance, the end of
which is not easy to see. Again is the
fact that the New York democrats may
force the party to leave New York out
altogether in the search for a candidate.
Mr. Cleyeland's s letter was brave and hon
est, hut was inopportune. He could, l
think, have offered to yield the thing to
the kindly action of time, standing upon
his record. One thing, however. is GER
tain, and it is the key to the situation.
If the democratic party can be brought
to send a question like that of revenue
reform to the rear, advancing in its
place the question like the free coinage
of silver to the first rank, it will be
| beaten out of sight, and will richly
deserve to be beaten.

ANXIOUS TO COME HOME.
Shoe Operatives Deceived by Alluring
Promises From veneznela.

BosToN, Feb. 20.-Jacob F.. Goss, a
Lynn shoe worker, employed as a mckay
stitcher, returned from Caracas, Ven-
ezuela, today, where he has been located
since last December. He relates this
story:
last December in response to an al
Turing advertisement in a local paper for
skilled operatives to 60 to South America
to teach the native workmen the art Of
producing foot wear by machinery,
Goes entered into communication with
the agent of the firm of Paul d Co., Of
Caracas, a Spanish concern, the result
of which was that he signed a contract
to work for the firm one year at $25 per
week, and, with several other workmen
from Lynn and other New England shoe
centers, and five girls to be employed as
stitchers, he embarked for South
America On their arrival they found
that, though the house of Paul & Co.
was reliable concern, the proposed
shoe factory had not been completed,
and this necessitaed a delay of several
| weeks, during which the workmen a ided
| in the finishing of the building. They
1 had all signed contracts, but at the ex-
piration of the first week they discovered
| that what they received as compensation
| for their labor was less than half that
stipulated in the C ntract, and they inn
mediately demonstrated, but could Sc
cure no satisfaction from the firm. AS a
last resort they visited the American
consul and producing the contracts
| which they had signed, asked if they
could not be inforced. The consufs re-
ply was that the contracts was worth
! less. The workmen were without money,
the climate did not agree with them,
and they endured, with the exception of
Goss, and are still enduring, great suf-
! fering. The natives treat them with
contempt, and their lot Is a most un-
happy ONE They are forced to remain
there, because they have not funds with
which to return. When Mr.. Goss left
with the money sent him by friends, the
factory was not completed and his un-
happy companions were in the greatest
distress, being in absolute want, without
decent clothes, and living in the negro
quarters for lack of means to get better.
Mr.. Goss wants the government to bring
them home.

mayor of Springfield has issued an ap-
peal to the public in the cities and towns
throughout Canada and the United
States asking for aid in behalf of the

Constructfon Work Stopped by the
Stormy Weather.
TACOMA, Feb. 2l.-The stormy weather
of the past week has greatly retarded
railroad work in the northwest. The
Northern Pacific construction work in
this state has been brought almost to a
standstill. The partial suspension of
the work on the extensions to the South
Bend section and Ocosta has been made
compulsory. me surveying par parties t,.sn Q,
working in eastern Washington have
practically suspended work Tor few
days. The delay will not seriously affect
the work in other localities. Colonel
Heustis, whose firm has charge of the
Union Pacific work towards the ocean
said today that it is impossible to do
anything in the way of construction un-
der the present circumstances. They
are doing small amount of work SO as
to prevent their workmen from scatter
ing.

For the Death of an Iowan Under the
Christian Science Treatment.

For the Death OF an IOWan Onder GnS
Christian Science Treatment.
Dies MONIES, Iowa, Feb. 2l.-Much
interest is felt here in the investigation
of the death of William Protzman, who
it is alleged died under the Christian
science treatment. ProtZman was "a
years old and had good health until
December II, last, when he was attacked
with collie, which grew into typhoid
fever. The jury found he received no
medical treatment, except "silent
prayer" that dietary rules were disre-
garded and that he was otherwise
neglected. The conclusion of the jury Is
that Protzman came to his death by rea-
son of practicing upon him of the teach
ing of the association of persons calling
themselves Christian scientists, and
from no other cause. The jury further
cay in their opinion Protzman would
have lived had proper treatment been
given him. 1t is expected arrests will
| be made later on.

The Tug Business Improbable on Puget
Sound.

SAN FRANcIsco, Feb. 1t is rumored
that the Merchants Towboat Company's
tug Sea Lion is to be ordered to return
here from Puget sound. The statements
are made that the long runs without tow
and low rates are factors that have caused
the Sea Lion to be very Improbable in
the work up north. Although fuel is
cheaper on Puget sound than at this port,
the distance a tug has to travel before
she picks up vessel, and the long tow
she has to make when employed, causes
large consumption of coal. This expen-
diture of coal is by no means compensated
for by the rates of towage, and rather
than allow the tug to lose money she
will return here for employment.

Louis Prineau, of the Standing Rock

the party, said in view of this last visit
and the excitement of last fall, there
will be trouble in the spring.
