BLOUNT'S REPORT.
Substance of What furports to Be His
Findings on Hawaii.

Findings on Hawaii.
New York, Nov. 20.-The Herald this
morning prints under a Washington
date what purports to be a large portion
Of the report of Commissioner Blount.
1t sums up as follows:
Commissioner Blounts report will show
that Minister Stevens landed the troops from
Boston long before there was any valid eX-
cuse for their presence on Hawaiian soil;
that he declined to remove them when re-
quested to do SO by the government, and has
informed that the authorities were willing
and fully able to preserve order and
to protect American interests; that
these troops were stationed across the
street from the government building
in which Minister Stevens knew the
revolutioniSts were about to read their pro-
clamation, and that the revolutionists' COM
mittce relied upon the American troops to
protect them in this act of rebellion; that
Minister Stevens recognized the provisional
government according to a prcconceivcd
programme before that government had OBJ
tanned possession of the departments and
military power at Honolulu, and that the
military power was surrendered as the
queen surrendered only through awe of the
sllperiOr force of the United States.

SEMINARY IN ASHES.
Two Lives Lost by the Burning Of Lakewood
Near Madison.

MADISON, Wis, Nov. l7.-'Edge-
wood,' the Catholic seminary situated
two miles east Of this city, was totally
destroyed by fire last night. Two of
the inmates were burned to death,
while third was probably fatally in
jured. The financial lossis about $50, 600.
partially insured. The victims of the
fire are:
MARG1E RICE, Stevens Point, Wis, aged 6,
dead
MAGGIE IBAEE, Chicago, H., aged Z,
FRANCES HENNEBERRY, Chicago H., I'M
conscious and almost dead from smoke;
cannot live.
KATIE SWEENEY, -, Mich badly suffo-
Gated; will recover.
The origin of the fire is a mystery. 1t
started shortly before 8 o'clock in a
room on the second floor of the main
building. The girls whose lives were
lost slept in or very near to this room.
Before the fire was discovered it must
have gained considerable Roadway for
when the sisters in charge became
aware of the danger the halls were
densely filled with smoke.
The spread of the fire was SO rapid
that it was feared that more fatalities
would be discovered to have occurred,
but as soon as the excitement was over
to some extent, it was but a short time
before the industrious sisters had all of
their wards accounted for.
Edgewood seminary, conducted by
the Dominican sisters and most beauti-
fully situated on the shores of Lake Win
era, was in a very thriving condition.
The old building, where the fire started,
was two-story stone structure and the
new one adjoining it., which was de-
stroyed, was three stories high, OF brick,
and had just been completed, not yet
being fully occupied. The older struct-
ure was the home of Gov. Washburn,
who gave it to the Dominican sisters.

authorized District Attorney Sleight to
bring action against ex-Sheriff Hynes

it is alleged were received by him dur
ing his two years of Office 1891 and 1892.

against the county. The complexion of
the County Board has changed since his

facts of inside county history have been
disclosed. Hynes' salary during his
two terms of Office was higher than that

termined highway robbery took place
here at l o'clock this morning. Ed.

proprietor at once gave the alarm, but
there was no police officer around. The
frequency of robberies here is creating
much uneasiness among the citizens
and complaints are being made to

FOUND HANGING IN HIS CELLAR.
Ex-City Treasurer Gund1ach, of Madi
son, Ends His Own Life.

MADISON. Wis, Nov. 20.--Ex-City
Treasurer Eugidius Gundlach, whose
term expired in April last, committed
suicide early this morning by hanging
himself in the cellar Of his resi-
dence. Insanity was the cause. He
contracted severe illness in 1888
while working as a mechanic in the
round-house of the st. Paul Company.
When he recovered his reason was gone.
He spent year in Mendoza asylum and
was discharged as cured. Two years later
he was elected city treasurer but the
cares of the office weighed on his mind
and his reason again became unbalanced.
During the past three months OF his
term his duties had to be per-
formed by deputy. He never
recovered. His wife missed him
from bed this morning, and on
making search found his body hang
ing by strap from beam in the cell
lar, his toes just touching the floor.
Life was extinct. The inquest was post
poned till tomorrow. He was native
of Bavaria and came here twenty-three
wears ago.

of the Associated Press bulletin an
nouncing that Minister Willis had pre-
scented his credentials to the government
of Hawaii without making any reference
to the restoration of the Queen. He
seemed greatly surprised, but absolute
lv refused to express any opinion upon
the news thus conveyed. His entire
manner indicated that he did not con-
slider the news as reliable, or that he
entertained the opinion that it did not
cover the entire situation. He opened
his mouth only to laugh.
