THE DEAD KINGS LAST MESSAGE.


SAN Francisco, Jan. 23.-0utside OF the
little circle of immediate friends and at
tendants upon the late King Kalaksua il
was not known that for ten days prior TO
the nonarch's death a phonograph stood
near the bedside. When the phonograph
was brought into the sick room last Mon
day q week ago. Grand Chamberlain Me-
Farlane explained its use and purpose 10
the king, and begged that he would
speak into the receiver. The near
approach of death was not suspected at
that time, but il was urged upon kalakaus
that in after years his people would be re-
joiced 10 listen 10 the natural tones of
their former ruler. The king consented,
and raising himself up in bed put the re-
ceiver 10 his mouth. and talked into il in
his natural tongue He spoke slowly and
with some effort for nearly an hour and
then sank back exhausted, promising A
complete message when he should feel
stronger.
The next day came, with the excitement
incident TO preparing Tor supper in honor
Of the king at the California hotel, aud the
phenograph was forgotten. On the follow
ing day came an entertainment for the
Mystic Shrine, and again the phonograph
was neglected. After that. until death had

Litter. OF Illinois, who was mentioned as
the agent of Senator Cameron in the pur-
chase Of silver bullion, appeared before the
silver pool investigating committee to-
day. and after relating how he had bought
and sold between $4,000 and $4,000 worth
of silver in the summer before, Littler
was asked if he had purchased any for
Senator Cameron. He replied:

Littler said he wished to characterize IN
the most unequivocal terms the general
statement that he had been connected
with silver pool, looking TO the induenc-
ing of legislation, as false. When
asked about the reputation of Owenby.
who had been mentioned in connection
with the alleged silver pool, he said
Owenby seemed clever fellow, but he
would think better of him when he got
back some of the money he had loaned
0weuby. Littler said he had no knowl-
edge of any silver pool, ne never
asked any one in congress TO vote for sill
yer legislation. and he went into the
speculation without the solicitation of any
one. As near as he could remember he
made less than $50 and more than 500 in
the transaction. Cameron made between

any one else. Litter further said he never
offered any monetary inducements what
ever, except TO express the opinion that
there would be an advance in silver.

SEATTLE WAS FAIR.
Her Census Unquestioned by
the Department.
SHAMELESS FRAUD IN OREGON.
Third Count Contemplated for Dis
honest PortIand-saiem Enumer-
ased Many Hop-Pickers.

WASHINGTON CrTY, JAM 2-S-lSpecial.l-
Superintendent Porter has issued bulle-
tin on the progress of the work IN compiet-
ing the census, in which very interest
ing statement is made as TO the result Of
the remuneration made in various places.
In nearly every case the second count was
found 20 contain evidences of fraud. Multi
nomah county, Or, which includes Port
land, was the only county in the United
States entitled to remuneration The
second count was begun in August and
was completed later, and the total popuia-
ton was reported at rs. 81, as against o.
713 in the June enumeration. There was
clearly dishonest work in this enumeration,
and its integrity was so seriously I'M
peached that third count Is contem-
plated. At the same time there was re-
count in Salem, Or, and n gain OF over
5000 was shown, but the accuracy of the
work is discredited by the positive state
ment that large number OF hop-pickers
temporarily in Salem were enumerated,
and that in their zeal 90 increase Salem's
numbers the proper boundaries were not
observed. In Seattle and Tacoma. where
recounts we're ordered, the figures were
swelled in both cities, but there is no
charge of fraud.
ST. PAIL, Jan. o3.-This afternoon the
Jury in the case of yeryais, the ST. Paul
census enumeration charged with making
false returns, brought in verdict OF not
guilty.

streets tomorrow viii say: The week s.
speculation has been of the most limited
character. The duiiness of the stock mar
ket was. in fact, quite as pronounced IS
anything that ordinarily is witnessed IN
the summary. Improvement in the money
market results in no disposition 10 buy
stocks. while bear operators, in view
of narrow trading and possibility
of Sudden change in the situation have
hesitated to attack prices. 1t was wait
ing market altogether, and though values
at times showed natural tendency TO sag
of fractionalIy. the changes effected on
the position of leading shares have been
relatively unimportant.
On Friday the market was somewhat
brisker, though transactions were stu IN
significant in volume. This unsatisfactory
position OF the market, by unanimous
choice of the street. Is ascrlbed 10 the
mists surrounding the pending currency
legislation at Washington.
A quiet feeling prevailed in wool during
the week. Prices, although about the
same of month ago, arc much turner.

The movement in all grades has been fair.

grades is much below that of the preceding
week. a slight Improvement has been
noted in Ohio and Michigan fieeces; one

ply has strengthened values Fine
staple territories continue in strong de-
mand and comprise the major part Of the

California woods are gaining in strength
The same grades OF carpet w0Cls are more
active. High prices and recent decisions
OF the treasury department are the prlncl-
