SENATE

Gi>-'<tl
The Senate to-day, after the routine
morning business. took up, discussed
and passed the House joint resolution
covering into the Treasury SIS, 900, be-
ing an excess of the sum due to Choc-
taw aud Chickasaw indians under an
appropriation of the last Congress.
The bill to pay to the representatives
of John Roach, the ship builder, S2S, 100
balance due on the Dolphin was discus
sed for about an hour and finally laid
aside without action.
The Senate bill compelling witnesses
to testify before the interstate COM
merce commissioners was taken up and
passed.
The consideration of the anti-option
bill was resumed. 1t was opposed in
set speech by Mr.. Villas, DEM of Wis
consin, on the ground of its unconsti-
tutionality. 1t directly invaded, he
said, the sovereignty and peculiar
governmental functions of the States
and was fragrant advance to central
ization involving the characteristics Of
the most odious paternalism.
HOUSE.
The House is considering private
pension bills coming over from the last
session as unfinished business. There is
bare quorum in attendance.
The bill was finally defeated after
three-quarters of an hour had been con-
sumed in an effort to secure quorum.
February was set apart for paying
tribute to the memory of the late j. w.
Kendall, of Kentucky. The House
then proceeded to the consideration of
the Notifications appropriation bill,
which was passed without amendment.
1t appropriates 81. 1906.
The first bill passed by vote OF yeas
80; nays Pa bare quorum.
The District of Columbia appropria-
ton bill was reported and referred TO
the committee of the whole
The consideration of the pension
bills was resumed. In speaking of one
of the bills where the Pension Bureau
had denied the pension asked for, Mr..
Bland DEM of Missouri, said that the
House should encourage every depart
ment in acting in strict compliance with
the spirit and letter of the law. 1t was
the habit of members to tax the de
partments with extreme liberality
Were they now going to overrule de-
partment which was carrying out the
law? If this were so, there was no
honesty in their criticisms.

HUGH O'DONNELL'SCASE
Evidence to Show He Was at the Riot
in the Capacity
OF NEWSPAPER CORRESPONDENT.
Some Things He Said on That
Memorable Day Repeated in
Court By Witnesses-A Loaded
Gun Was Seen Lying on His
Table at Home the Night Of the
Riot.

PITTsBURG, PA, February 15.-The
defense in the O'Donnell trial attempted
to-day TO show that O'Donnell was
correspondent and was at Homestead
the day OF the riot acting 10 that ca
pacity. A number of newspaper men
were called as witnesses, and 1t was
shown that previous to the riot he had
been doing work for the Tri-State News
Burea and several Pittsburg papers.
Robert w. Herbert, OF the Pittsourg
Dispatch, was on the stand when Court
opened. He testified that on the after
noon Of July 6, he was in the cnpola
when O'Dounell came to him, and be-
ing displeased with an interview, ne
wrote, collected some men, and offered
TO throw him down the cupola stack.
The men expressed a willingness to do
so. Under cross-examination the wit
ness said he accepted the threat as
joke.
Richard Collins, reporter for the
Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph, testified
to having been in the mill during the
evening, when O'DonRell made his
speech advising that the Pinkertons be
allowed TO cut loose the oarges ana noat
down the river. According TO the wit
ness, 0'DOnnell said:
"We have lost heavily and the Pink
ertons have, too,. Let's let them go
and have no more bloodshed."
A man in the assembly called out:
mo; burn the bloody buggers."
WHO is that man?" cried O'Donnell.
He was shown, and O'Donnell said:
''You go down and kill them yourself.
We have been trying all day. We Will
wait"
Afterward it was agreed to let the
Plnkertons surrender, and ODonnell
said they must be protected.
II. B. Layton, OF Chicago, w. w.
Wood, OF New Castle, and several en-
ployes of the Carnegie Company, testi-
fed to seeing O'DonneiI on the river
bank and behind the barricade during
the riot.
Court here adjourned for dinner.
At the afternoon session, O'DonnelPs
wife was present in the conrt room Tor
the first time during the trial.
Several newspaper men were examin-
ed, the general trend of their evidence
going to show that O'Donneil interiered
TO protect the Pinkertons at the time OF
the latter's surrender.
Edward 0. Christie, reporter, testi-
fed that at midnight on the night OF
fight he interviewed O'Donnell at the
labor leaders house. There was rife
lying on table, which O'Donnell said
the Pinkertons' chief had given him.
Witness asked II II was loaded, where
upon the defendant replied:
II have no use for any other kind"
The prosecution having rested, court
adjourned until tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, February 15.-The
President sent a message 10 the Senate
this afternoon recommending the an
nexation Of the Hawaiian Islands to the
United States 1t is accompanied by 2
treaty of annexation concluded between
the Secretary of State and the Hawaiian
commissioners, and mass OF cores
pondence relating to the question at is
sue. The treaty is brief, providing
merely for the auneQatiOn Of the Islands
under the present provisional govern
ment, and leaving the details OF the
permanent form Of government, etc, TO
the action of Congress.
Contrary 10 general expectation the
Senate in executive session declined 90
make the treaty public Immediately,
but decided to first have the message
and documents printed for the contiden-
tial information Of Senators. There
was no debate beyond few questions
directed 10 the chairman of the Foreign
Relations Committe, but every word
was carefully weighed and the message
and treaty met with almost general ap-
proval.
Among the detailed dispatches re-
ceived at the State Department from
Honolulu is from Minister Stevens,
giving an interesting account OF the
reasons which governed him in assuming
control of the island. 1t follows
81 have time before the departure of
the mail steamer only to state briefly
the additional reasons which caused US
10 assume q temporary protectorate OF
these islands. The provisional govern
ment must have time TO or
ganize new police, and
to discipline a small military force.
When the monarchy died by its own
hand there was no military force In the
island, but the Royal Guard of about
seventy-fve natives, not in effective
force equal to twenty American SOL
diers. There are 10000 Chinese and
Japanese on the Islands, and evil dis
posed persons might stir some Of them
10 disorder. But the chief elements Of
evil are in Honolulu wnere are the rene
gade whites at the head Of the lottery
and opium rings, a considerable num-
Der OF hoodlum foreigners and the more
Vicious Of the natives.
Another important reason for our
action is the possibility Of the arrival
here OF a British war vessel, and the
English Minister here thus aided, might
try to press unduly the provisional gov
ernment. With the islands under our
protection we think the English Mil-
lister will not attempt to insist that his
government has the right to interfere
while our flag is over the government
building"
In concluding his dispatch, Minister
Stevens says:
"As a necessary precaution against
all contingencies, advise that Admiral
Skerrat be promptly sent here with one
or two ships in addition to the Boston"
