MIDWINTER EXPOSITION.
The Great Chicago Search Light Will Go
TO California

Chicago. Nov. 9.-After nearly two
weeks of continuous negotiations be-
tween the General Electric Co. and
Director General De Young, of the
Midwinter exposition. and which at
one time looked as if no agreement was
possible, eliminated today in the sign
ing of a highly important contract.
The director general secures by this
contract the largest search light in
the world for use on the exposition
grounds. This wonderful light has a
reflector five feet in circumference: it
is Of two and one-half million candle
power. and will throw a light a dis
lance of ten miles of such intensity
that newspaper can be read under its
rays. 1t will also throw a light so
that a ship can be distinguished at
distance of fifteen miles. This great
light will be erected on the top of the
electrical tower in the center of the
grounds. Another important feature
of the contract is the transfer Of the
immense electrical fountains at the
Worlds Columbian exposition to Cal
ifornia- This fountain, which is to be
erected in the grand court of the Mid
winter exposition grounds, composed
of nineteen distinct fountains and over
200 outlets. 1t requires one-half mil
lion gallons of water per hour to feed
1T under a pressure of 200 feet head.
By contract the electrical company
is compelled to erect the fountain, take
full charge and run it throughout the
entire six months of the fair The con-
tract also provides that the company
shall furnish $500 incandescent lamps
to be divided into two systems, 5000 in
|direct current for the exterior building
|ilIuminations and the balance of $500
with alternating current for use in con-
|cessions at some distance from the
power plant The contract further in
|eludes eight dynamos for the genera
ton of electricity for arc lights, and
400 2,000-candIe power arc lights com
ulete In addition to this contract the
director general has signed another
with the Standard Electric company to
supply the necessary machinery to
maintain for six months 400 more arc
lights, also of 2,0o0-candle power each.

ANOTHER BRITISH VICTORY.
The Matabele Question is Warmly Dis
cussed in the Commons.


London Nov. st is reported that
the British have won another victory
over the Matabeles. The rumor that
King Lobengula was captured is I'M
confirmed.
A message from Sir Henry Lock,
high commissioner to the Marquis of
Fipon, secretary of state for the col
onies, was read in the commons today
by Sidney Buxton, which gives the re-
port. 1t says: Yesterday the Maka-
lakos asked protection, stating col
umn from the east was in possession
of Buluwayo, and that King Loben-
gula and Yambo had fed. Mr. Buxton
added the news was satisfactory, and
hoped there would be no further hos
tilities.
Labouchere moved to adjourn in or
der to call attention to the Matabele
campaign. Labouchere supported near
ly all the radicals below the gangway
and the anti-Parnellites who rose in
their seats Labourchere said the tax
payers money was being spent to en-
able the company to get something in
order to swindle and cheat the British
investors. Steps ought to ha fal-a- I'M

government agreed that the war ought
not to degenerate into war of exter-
mination or the expulsion of the Mat
abeleS.

st. Louis. Nov. "a Republic spec

sent word it must be stopped. Meetz
refused. The governor told Sheriff

he would make no arrests except I'M

the authority of the state con-
stables when they were armed with
a warrant. The captain of the local
company was appealed to and
he said he could not get his company
together Meanwhile, Meetz dispensed
more beer. Then the governor mus
tered a large posse and armed them,
telling them to shoot, if necessary, but
to carry out his orders. He marched
at their head. Two of Meetz's clerks
he appeared suddenly and ran all the
posse out, and said they could not in
terfere with him except at their peril
Governor Tillman said they could ar
rest Meetz under the dispensary law
without a warrant and ordered them
to do so. 1.-THE first man that crosses
my counter to arrest me without a
warrant, I'll shoot said he.
No one tried it.
Neither would Meetz allow his con-
tract to be revoked by the secretary
of the fair when the latter tried to do
so at the governors request. Finally
Meetz sold out all his beer and trou-
bic was averted.

Washington, Nov. 9.-The low water
mark of net available cash in the treas
ury was reached TO-DAY, when the total
stood al s99, sos, 242, of which SS4,656,412
was gold reserve. The large expendi-
lures over receipts thus far this month
are responsible for this condition, but
no alarm or uneasiness is felt at the
department The hope is expressed
that the reserve. as well as the net
currency balance, will rise soon. 1t is
said at the department today there
were no orders in reference to the
actual coinage of silver bullion in the
treasury purchased under the Sher-
man act, yet issued. The low state Of
the treasury's available cash has
given rise to fresh rumors that a plan
will be devised for replenishing the
gold reserve. 1t is said at the treas
ury department, however, that other
than the coinage Of bullion, Secretary
Carlisle has no immediate steps in
contemplation involving a change in
the fiscal policy of the government
There is said to be no disposition to
issue bonds at present, and no such

THE HAWAIIAN MIDDLE.
Our Minister Has Been Given No More
Than Moral Right

Washington. Nov. 9.-Secretary Ores
ham declines to impart any informa-
ton on the Hawaiian subject. The
discussion Of the policy towards Hawaii
at the cabinet meeting on Tuesday
seems to have given information to
some members of the administration
and bits of talk on the subject have
triczled through to the public since
then
It is evident the administrations
policy is not friendly to provisional
government for the islands or for an
nexation to the United States. There
is reason to believe the provisional
government in Hawaii is regarded as a
result of the landing of marines from
Boston in Honolulu. Well-informed
persons who comment on these facts
point out the difficulty Of the United
States government in deposing the pro-
visional government in a diplomatic
way. after having formally recognized
it as the lawful government of the
islands. received its accredited diplo-
matte representatives and accredited
the United States minister to it.
There seems no authority for believing
that the United States minister has
been given power to exercise anything
more IMAM a moral influence TO secure
the re-esta blishment of the conditions
of the islands that obtained before the
recent revolution, but such influence
is to be tried.
Those wen acquainted with the
islands believe no mere moral suasion
viii ever serve to depose the pro-
visiOnal government.
The 1TniIed States navy will view
with little satisfaction any effort to
restore Queen Liliolukalini The
officers Of the navy have been ardent

DUTIES ON TOBACCO.
A Stirring Protest Against ANY Increase
Being Made.

Washington, Nov. 9.-The committee
appointed by the convention of tobacco
manufacturers of the United States
to appear before the Ways and Means
committee and protest against any in
crease on the tax of manufactured to-
bacco, was accorded a hearing this
afternoon by Chairman Mcmillan, of
the subcommittee on internal reve-
nue..
Mr.. Spence, of Cincinnati, acted as
spokesman. He said any increase Of
the tax on manufactured tobacco
would be inimical to the interests of
both the manufacturers and growers
of tobacco, by the reason of leSSening
consumption. The committee recon-
mended a repeal of the law of 1890,
which permits the sale of leaf to-
Tr3ent of taxes. They argued that the
repeal Of this law would largely in
crease the government revenues on to-
bacco.
Mr.. Mcmillan gave no intination of
the intentions of the Committee on
Ways and Means with reference to the
tobacco schedule. but it has been fire.
quently rumored that a majority of the
committee favors an increase of the
tobacco tax as a means of supplying
the necessary revenues of the govern
ment.
Messrs. Mcmillan, Turner, Brecken-
ridge, Bynum and Montgomery, of the
Ways and Means Committee, today
had conference with Secretary Car
Isle in reference to the tobacco and
other schedules.
Mr. Wall, of Wisconsin, subsequently
saw Mr.. Carlisle. during which he took
occasion to protest against the new
tariff bill increasing the internal reve-
nue. tax on beer. He also opposed re-
ducing the custom duty on imported
Canadian lumber.

THIRTEEN ARE LOST.

sucked Under the Paddle Wheel.

Burning of steamer A Boat Load
sucked Under the Paddle Wheel.
North Bay, Ont, Nov. Sit is now
believed that of the twenty-four men
on board the steamer Fraser when she
took fire twenty can be accounted for;
thirteen are known to be lost, and
seven saved, all of whose names have
been telegraphed The vessel had two
boats. each capable of holding eighteen
to twenty men. When it was decided
to abandon the vessel. those on board
proceeded to lower them. The first
boat was lowered successfully and
sixteen or seventeen men got into II,
but it drifted under the paddle wheel
and was at once capsized and all IN it,
except one, drowned, some being struck
and stunned by the wheel, and the
others, being hampered by their clothes,
sank one at a time.
.John Adams alone succeeded in
reaching the scow which the Fraser
was towing. where four others had al
ready succeeded in securing refuge
Subsequently two more joined them
making I'D a total of seven The
blazing vessel was seen from the shore
and a crew went out in a sailboat and
rescued the men on the Scow, which
had in the meantime been cut adrlft
When the first boat was lowered an at
tempt was made to lower the other
but the flames were so hot on that
side that it was found impossible, and
those remaining on deck had to jump
and swim for their lives to the scow.

reference to the trouble at Melilla, he

Turning to Afghanistan, the speaker
believed the settlement of the outstand-

parties. Negotiations with Russia
promised a result in the satisfactory
and permanent settlement of the Pa

concerning the negotiations with

the importance of maintaining the

by the government, exchange in India
would have fallen to a shilling. It was
too soon To say whether the measures
were altogether successful, but the
government was convinced they were
necessary. He referred to the signifi-

there had been a distinct diminution in
