Especial to THE WORLD


New YoRK, November 1.-Mr. H.
A. P. Carter, Hawaiian minister to the
United States, died this morning in the
Everett House, this city where he has
been hopelessly i'll for the past two
months.
Mr.. Carterwas born in Honolulu in
1887 of American parents. He was
educated in Boston and then returned
to Honolulu, where he engaged in
business. In 1874 he retired from ac-
tive business. During this time he had
held almost every position Of honor
and trust on the islands. As minister
of foreign affairs of the Hawaiian gov
eminent he assisted Minister Allen, the
head Of the legation at Washington, in
getting up the ten years. reciprocity
treaty, which went into effect in 1876.
After this work he was appointed min
lister plenipotentiary and envoy extra
ordinary to this government, and
through his efforts the treaty Of 1876
was extended another seven years from
1886. He had been sent to many of
the countries of Europe for his govern
ment upon important missions.

Unexpectedly, is that he has applied to
the Intendente Of Valparaiso to pro-

by the CHILEAN official, Capt. Schley is
reported to be taking such measures as
will enforce the proper treatment Of
officers and men Of the Baltimore who
may be sent into Valparaiso on BUSH
ness which must be done. The Cap
tain is prudent man, and will avoid
giving occasion of offense to the Chill
ians, but purchases must be made for
the use Of the ship and communication
maintained between him and Minister
Egan. These necessary things will
be accomplished, and Capt. Schley will
have the doing Of them. If reports as

afford to be patient with the weaker
power and wait until the, CHILEAN au-
torities have completed the investiga-
ton of the Valparaiso outrage, which
is now in progress, before taking occa-
sionlto adopt extreme measures. There
seems to be no reason to believe that
the Junta are not acting in good faith
in requesting time for investigation, y
just as our own Government assumed
the same right Nm our difficulty with
Italy regarding the Italians who were
killed by the citizens Of New Orleans.

The daughter was seen to be in an in

When questioned by The bureau off,

John was the responsible person. At
this time the attaches of the Barge
Office had no knowledge Of the rela-

they were held, the remainder Of the
family being permitted to go ashore.
Marguerite was told that, Unless she
and her betrayer were married, they
would both be sent back to their Ger

to Pastor Kyle's residence and they
were made husband and wife. The

ROME, November Ian address by
the Grand Master of the Freemasons,
opposing the present arrangement be-
tween the Government of Italy and
the Pope, was published here this
morning, and copies were circulated in
all the Masonic lodges of Italy The
address advises the brethren to support
the agitation in favor of abolishing
law guarantees, speaks harshly Of pill
grimages, and says that the insult
offered by the French pilgrims at the
Pantheon amounted to a crime, and
that it would be folly to allow Italy's
enemies to conspire to insult Italy's
citizens with impunity.
In conclusion it says: z Public sem

cannot oppose our project; we want
Rome to be one and indivisible, and
the Pope to be subjected to the ordi-
nary rule Of law.

opening day, and although the bidding

two days over $4,000. Hon. Geo. NJ.
Bowers. the President of the company,
who was seen by World reporter,
expressed himself as being exceedingly
well pleased with the results Of the
sale, and he said that il far exceeded
the expectations Of the company. One
Of the favorable features Of the sale
was that Martinsburg and Berkeley
county had sufficient confidence III
the enterprise to invest their money
freely and consequently the land

a very large demand for houses and
not half the people that want them
can obtain them. There are real es-

That old custom which has been Iii
vogue for centuries Of celebrating
Halloween was carried out to the full
est extent in Martinsburg on Saturday
night. The event was q pleasant one
and the young folks turned out in
force with their pockets full d beans,
rice, corn, peas, etc. Every one that
passed alongthe street was pelted with
out respect to color, sex, business or
social standing. The old as well as
the young participated in the fun and
seemed good natured about it, and
before midnight the streets were liter
ally strewn withthe cereals above mem
toned.
Two boys were put in the sweat box
to scare them but there were older and
wiser ones that ought to have been in
their places. Halloween will be Hal
lowe'en and boys will be boys in spite
of everything you can do. SO far as
we have learned there was no very
serious damage done. A few bell
cords were broken, few gates and
carriage, blocks removed and stone
thrown through the transom Of Coun-
Gilman Lamar's front door, is all 50 far
reported.

The Money Trouble IN CONGRESS.


The silver and greenback men are
pushing the gold ring men in Com
gress to the wall with argument
Facts have overthrown their ancient
fictions. that silver would drive gold
out Of the country. More money is
needed to conduct the growing bus
mess of the country and the gold
bags are al last compelled to admi,
this fact, but they fight silver against
the demands of the people and the
logic Of common sense. The reason
is plain. The men in power are Q
part and parcel Of the specializing
gold ring. They can buy more with
their interest when prices are low
and money scarce, than when bus
mess is brisk and prices advanced.
When the representatives of the gold
ring are turned out of Congress and
representatives of the people are
placed in control, prosperity will
return to the Industrial class.
