The Oregon Senator Says the Administers
ton Made a Mistake.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 90. - Senator
Dolph, member of the senate COMMITTEES
on foreign relations, who has read with
considerable care the report Of Commits
sioner Blount, which has been given
to the public by Secretary Gresham,
says that the report reads very.
much as if it was prepared by a
man that was sent to the. islands for a
certain purpose, and that purpose was to
show that what had been done was
wrong. He did not think the admins
tration had been strengthened by the
present action in Mr.. Blount's report, but
the more carefully it was considered
the more apparent it would be that Mr..
Blount was sent to the islands to report
against the action of Minister Stevens
and the provisional government. Senator
Dolph says it is perhaps true that our
minister acted somewhat hastily, but-it
is not shown that the revolution would
not have occurred or the queen
have been dethroned. Nor had it
been proven that there having
been established a government recog-
nized by this government, that this gov
eminent had any right to overthrow it,
and re-establish either the old or new
government. The senator added that
there was not SO much interest in Mr..
Blounts report, but that the most i'm,
portant document and what all would
like to see, is that containing the in
structions to Minister Willis.

MADISON, Wis, Nov. 22.-The news
that General Rusk was dead caused a
profound shock to the capital city. The

To Take strikers, Places.

GALEsBURG, Ills, Nov. 22.-Some
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy en-
gineers have left here to take the places
of strikers on the Lehigh Valley railway.
Several parties are here hiring men for
the Lehigh, and as there is said to be a
large surplus of engineers on the Bur-
lington, predictions are made that many
will go. The Burlington, it is said, fur
nishes transportation and 80 days leave
of absence. Some of those going came
here six years ago to take the place of
strikers on the Burlington. The feeling
against the men who are going is strong
in labor circles here.

that the mayor would be persuaded to
