egal right to be the government at

legal right to be the government at
all.
The 4lst Article of Che present
Constitution above quoted gives the
Sovereign the personal right and pre-
rogatiye of appointing the Cabinet
without, as in other cases, the act
having to be countersigned by a
Minister; and by the terms of it,
once appointed they can only be re-
moved by the appOinter--the exact
words being, "shall be removed by
him only" etc
So the question at issue ia, not
what tenure of Office or amount of
power the Cabinet possess when
once appointed, but, the present
Sovereign having appointed no Cabi-
net as yet, whether the late Kings
signature and appointment as an act
OF his personal prerogauve, uncoun-
lersigned by Minister, is VOID by
his death, or, whether it forces the
present Sovereign to accept as her
advisers a Cabinet which she has had
no voice in selecting; thus depriving
her of the exercise Of that portion of
the personal prerogative which the
Constitution allots to her.
| think it will be seen from Mr..
IhurstOn' 5 own words, quoted above,
rs well as from the wording of the
Constitution, that the appointment
of a cabinet is a personal preroga
tive of the soyereIgn's, and the ques-
ton at issue is, whether she can, or
ought to be rightfulIy debarred from
exercising that prerogative at the
present juncture.
| answer--as think every right
thinning man will do that, as the
first lady to occupy the throne as
sovereign of these islands, she should
be given every opportunity to begin
her reign under pleasant and kindly
auspices, and that, certainly, 10 at
tempt should be made to further
curtail, without the strongest evil
deDce of right, her already limited
prerogatives and powers.
Now, Mr.. Editor, | leave off for
the present, aud hope, with your
permission, to traverse the remain
der of Mr.. Thurston's arguments
later on. +. n. n.

THE PHlNOGRaPH.

The photograph bought by Col,
G W. MacfarIane in San Francisco
arrived here by the Zealandia. All
arrangements are now completed for
placing the monograph on exhibition
in the Hawaiian Hotel. An errone.
Gus impression prevails that this pho
nograph was intended for the King.
The phonograph that Mr.. Glass, the
manager of the photograph company,
intended to present to the King was
a small cabinet one. The one pur-
chased by Col. Macfarlane is exactly
like those seen in all the principal
hotels of the United States, and is
operated on the commercial system
of putting dime in the slot.
This forenoon private test was
made of the photograph at the Hotel,
in presence of Col. Macfarlane, Hon.
E. G. Macfarlane, Messro. Allen
Norbert, Il. Cation, J. W. Pratt,
Lionel Stagge and a BULLETIN re-
porter. Mr.. w. Ii. Aldrch was the
operator and a number of cylinders
containing come songs and tunes by
the second Regiment band of San
Francisco were tried. Results were
quite satisfactory, the notes of singers
aud instruments being remarkably
distinct, and announcements of num-
bers at the start, and cheering OF an
audience at the fnlsh, of perform
ances very amusing. In the roper
toire reproduced today were Me

Alley" bohemian Girl by the

DOM PIATT DEAD.
One of Our Best known Political W

ers Passes Away.
Col. Dom Piatt died at his home,
Mac-O-Chee, near Cleveland, O., on the
18th. He had been i'll for two weeks
with form Of la grippe, but it was only
in the last few days that his indisposi-
ton was regarded as at all serious.
Since Col. Piatt's retirement from
active journalistic work he has resided
quietly at his elegant country home in
Logan County. He was called from this
retirement in 1888, at the urgent request
of Mr.. Cleveland, to found Belford s

tiers to the Cleveland Plaindealer

the late campaign, which attracted
wide attention. Col. Piatt was born in
Cincinnati June 10, 1919. He prepared
for the law and was elevated to the COM
mon pleas bench at very early age.
AS journalist and editor of his paper
in Washington he worked revolution

FINANCIAL CROOKEDNESS
A German Banker Who Got Away with
All the Funds.

BERLIN, Nov. ia rumor which pre-
vailed on the oourse this morning re-
garding the incorporation of funds
by Charlottenberg banker spread
rapidly, and with the knowledge of
how Wolff, of the firm of Hirschfeld
q Wolff, who is now in the
Meabit Jail for his crimes, had
sold or pledged securities which
did not belong to him, the story
of this latest ENLIGHTENMENT found ready
listeners. Later in the day it transpired
that the story was absolutely true, and
that another name is to be added to the
list of men who, standing high in the
financial and social worlds of Berlin,
have within the past few weeks proved
recreant to their trust. The Charlotten-
berg banker who robbed his customers
is named Mass. The sum total of his
embezzlements will amount to very
large sum. The money appropriated
by Mass to his own use includes
the sum of 10000 marks which had
been subscribed toward the fund
for the erection of church
in memory Of the late Empress Augusta,
grandmother of Emperor William Ten
thousand marks which were to be de-
voted to the Prince Frederick Charles
Institute have also disappeared. In

SIXTY ARRESTS MADE.
Result of the Discovery of the Plot
Against the Ruler of Russia.

LONDON, Nov. 14.-Sixty persons
many high in social circles-have been
arrested in Russia in connection with
the conspiracy to overthrow the gov
eminent. The object of the conspiracy
just unearthed, unlike majority of
the plots discovered in Russia, was
not to kill the Gar, but was the
organization of movement hav-
ing for its end the creation of a
representative assembly, an object
which has been the dream of many
Russians for years. A short time ago it
came to the knowledge of the police
that conspiracy was under way. The
authorities, through the system of es-
pionage which prevails throughout
Russia, were able to learn who the con-
spirators were, their places of
meeting, and in fact every
thing connected with the plot.
While secretly pursuing their inVestiga-
tons in st. Petersburg they found that
the conspirators in that city were only
a part of very numerous band, the
headquarters of which was located IN
Moscow. They learned also that the
conspirators had been very active in Sc
curing adherents to their plan, and that
the conspiracy had qualifications which
spread to all the principal cities of the

HUGE PLOT In RUSSIA.
Another Attempt to Overthrow the Gear
Despotic Rule.

Another Attem pit to Overthrow the Cars
DespOtic Rule.
The Russian government has I'M
earthed huge plot which had for it's
object the creation of are preventative
assembly. Sixty members of the no.
bility and of the upper and middle
classes who are charged with completely
in the conspiracy have been arrested.
The discovery of the plot and the arrest
of SO many prominent subjects has
caused decided sensation in Russia.
Some surprise was expressed in Lon
don upon the receipt of a dispatch
announcing the extraordinary activity
which was being displayed by the Rus
sian government in connection with the
internal disturbances which are known
to exist in the empire. 1t was thought
at first that the governments action
was due to the troubles arising from
the scarcity of food in many districts
of Russia, as for some days dis
patches have been received depicting
with minuteness the terrible sutferings
OF the starving peasants. Many acts of
lawlessness have been reported as hav-
ing been committed by men rendered
desperate by the pangs of hunger, and
the statement that the marshals of the
countability for any political disturb
ances in their districts was taken
to mean that the starving peas
ants and small farmers were assum-
ing threatening attitude. The watch
fulness exercised In connection with the
students could not be explained on this
hypothesis, but as that class of the
Cars subjects are continually in trou
bic with the police, it was thought that
they had again come into collision with
the authorities through too freely ex-
pressing their thoughts regarding the
policy of the government in connection
with the famine.
A dispatch was received on the 18th,
however, which puts ali speculation to
flight and gives very sufficient reason
for the suspicious of the Russian CEN
trail government that there is som ething
wrong in the empire. This dispatch
states that short time ago it came to
the knowledge of the police that con-
spiracy was under way. The authori
ties, through the system of espionage
which prevails throughout Russia, were
able to learn who the conspirators were,
their places of meeting, and in fact
everything connected with the plot.
While secretly pursuing their investiga-
tons in st. Petersburg they found that
the consplrators in that city were only
a part Of a very numerous band, and
headquarters Of which was located in
Moscow. They learned also that the
conspirators had been very active in
securing adherents to their plan, and
that the conspiracy had ramifcations
which spread to all the principal cities
of the empire.
The object Of the conspiracy just n
earthed unlike majority of the plots
discovered in Russia was not to kill the
Car, but was the organization of a
movement having for its end the crea-
ton of representative assembly, an

At Chicago, on the night of the 18th,
nineteen men were arrested. all of
whom belong to a large organized
gang Of safe-blowers and thieves
that had been successfully operat-
ing in Milwaukee, st. Louis and
Chicago. Considerable stolen prop
erty was recovered by the police.
For several months they have been
given information of depredations COM
mitted in various parts of the city. which
included almost every form of theft from
simple pocket-picking to safe-blowing.
Dispatches were also received from
many of the surrounding large
cities of similar occurrences, and
indications pointed to the exist
ence of an organized band with
this city as headquarters. Detectives
were put to work on the case, and
their efforts resulted in the capt,
ure of the gang, thirteen of them being
found in Farmers saloon, at the corner
of Clinton and Madison streets. Two.
of the men arrested are wanted for
breaking the st. Louis Jail, and the 9TH

TOLEDO, O., Nov. 12.-The sensation
of the Knights of Labor convention
to-day was the report of committee,

request of General Secretary Hayes, to

NEW YORK OUT OF WATER.
The City Experiencing Famine-situa-
ton Serious.

The City Experiencing Famine-situa-
ton Serious.
New YORK, Nov. 14.-New York is
experiencing water famine that
bids fair to prove disastrous. By
Monday many houses in the
higher portions of the city will be with
out any water at all, as the
pressure in the pipes is gradually
lessened as the reserve supply
grows less. AS long as there is
any water at all people will accept the
inevitable philosophically. By Monday
the whole supply will run to the lower
districts when the taps are turned on
in the morning.
The outlook is most gloomy. The
present supply from the Croton
Lake is about 100000 gallons a
day, and this comparatively small
supply will gradually grow less as the
drought continues. The reserve sup
ply in Kirk Lake, Lake Mahopac and
other smaller lakes, has been entirely
exhausted.
Men were sent out yesterday to turn
off the water from all public
and private drinking fountains and
open hydrants. All sprinkling
of the streets will also
be stopped tomorrow. This alone viii
save about 10000 gallons day. The
reduction of the pressure will also save
over 900, 900 gallons a day All that
can save the city from water famine
now Will be fall of two inches of rain.
The brewers use about 10000, 900
gallons day, and they will probably be
the first to shut down if the worst
comes. The situation is exceedingly
