shameless rule compelled the foreign resi-
dents to extort from him the constitution
Of 1887. His sister, who succeeded him,
undertook to substitute for this constitu-
ton . new one, which abolished the prop
erty qualification Of voters for the upper
house, and made the mobiles appointees OF
the crown. 1t made the tenure of office
of the chief justice and other officials de-
pendent upon the pleasure of the SOW
ereign. II disfranchised all white men
except those that had married native
wives. Its whole aim and scope was TO
make the sovereign the impersonation Of
autocratic rule ana arbitrary power.
The purpose of the queen was to re-estap-
lish the old system of chie6sh rule, per-
sonal, absolute, untrammeled by any con-
stitutional limitations. The property
holders and enlightened friends of law and
order At once took alarm and determined
TO run no risk Of the renewal of the old
corrupt, shameless misgovernment that
existed under Kalakaua prior to the risin &
of 1857. The queen saw her mistake when
too late, and her proclamation expressing
penitence for the wrong done and prom
Uses not to do 20 any more was utterly dis
regarded as not worth the paper on which
1t was printed.

with Kaiulani ~ titular queen. The al
most universal sentiment, among Ha-
wsi,ans a. well - others, is that Liliuoka-
lani has shown herself unfit to rule, and
deserved to be summarily dethroned. She
had stepped outside of thu constitution
and broken the compact of her own mo-
ton and at her own peril. The commu-
nifty were ready to accord to her all due
difference if she had only been willing to
let we'll enough alone and not attempt to
take the law into her own hands. in that
act breaking the constitution she had
sworn to uphold" Mr.. Hyde holds that
the Hawaiians are incapable of managing
the government, or fit to be intrusted with
the control of the millions of property now
invested at the islands. of which Ha-
waiians own only 5 per cent.

The Tacoma Ledger thinks that it discov-
ers an inconsistency in the attitude of the
Posr-IxrELLIsExcEa regarding the North
Dakota senatorial election. The Ledgcr
says editorialiy:
The correspondent OF the Posr- INrELIIGENcRR
at Olympia and the editor OF the Posr.INrELlr.
osHcER at Seattle are ssdly out of harmony
The correspondent growls through nearly q col
umn oil small type on the first page about the
machinafions of what no calls "the Tacoma.

which, he says. has for its object the election OF
Democratic senator. This, he seems TO think.
. most Ubiquitous purpose OF equally In.
iQuitous combine, aud II successful would be
followed by results of the direst character. The
editor announces, !eefuliy. through half q col.

that the election OF Roach in North Dakota
makes the senate surely Democratic, An out.
Come over which DO exuits ~ srdently ~ the
snoA' case hardened Democrat
The Ledger endeavors to find an incon-
sistency where mono exists. The only
cause OF exultation that we find in the
election OF Democratic senator in Dakota
10 the additional responsibility that it
imposes upon the Democratic party. For
che next two years At least that party will

make by the shallow prc.ext tina. it had

cause for rejoicing. As TO the combine
ton that was effected 70 elect a Demo-
cratic senator in North Dakota. It was An
unholy combination formed for an unholy
purpose. The traitors in the Republican
ranks who basely deserted their own
party, which was in the majority, and
assisted the Populists and Democrats to
elect Democrat wall be universally exc
Grated. We have no doubt that the Re-
pub!icans OF North Dakota will treat them

BOTH COUNTRIES WANT IT
England and the United States claim Pope's
Folly Island.
QUITE VALUABLE IN TIME OF WAR
Two Commissioners Representing Both
Interests Expected to settle the Qucs-
tion in n Short Time-Marking
Alasks's boundary.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.--Prof. T. @. Men
denhall of the coast and geological survey
on the part of the United States, and Com
missioner King on the part of Great Britain,
will shortly leave Washington to determine
the vexed question as to which country is
the legal owner of Pope's Folly island, near
the waters of the boundary line between
the United States and Canada. off the
coast of Maine. The possession of this
island has been in dispute for the last cen
tury, but is now in fair way to settlement
The discovery has just been made by Prof.
Mendenhall that the first chart issued by
Great Britain, showing the boundary line pc-
tween the United States and Canada, gives
the former country the island, but n suose-
quent chart includes it in Canadian territory:
The island is not so valuable IN time OF
peace, but in case Of war, would be decldeu
advantage to the country possessing 1T.
In view of his latest discovery that inc
island, according to the chart of Great Brit
ain. was conceded to the United States, the
professor believes he will have no trouble IN
settling the vexcd question in favor OF the
United States With this question settled,
the only other imrortant one pending be-
tween the United States and Great Britain
is the determine lion and marking OF the
boundary line between Alaska and the Brit
ish possessions The party which left here
in March lasG has been unable to accomplish
much. Wien last heard from the mountains
were covered with snow. 1t is not believed
that the boundary line between the disputed
possessions can now be marked for yeal
becau use of the unfavorable weather.

Situation Mt st, Paul.

ST. PAUL, June 18.-All the motormen and
conductors on the street railways in st. Paul
went out on Il strike today against new
contract the company had requested the
men to sign. The new contract was to have
been put in force today and the men joined
the forces of the strikers at Minneapolis,
completely tying up the railway traffic in
both cities. The men claim to have many
more grievances in the shape of alleged un-
just rules strongly enforced, but the pro
posed new contract is given as the chief
cause of the strike.
This order or clause in the new contract
provides that "all street railway conductors
and motormen will be held responsible here
after, not only for breakage to their cars
windows, trolleys, etc, but to vehicles
broken in collisions, and personal injuries
sustained by passengers in accidents due tC
the negligence of the conductor or motor
men"
The strikers have been quite, and late
this afternoon all the cars. are running. II
is stated that the Objectionable contract has
been Withdrawn.

gram to The BEE. To such an extent is
the excitement centcred in the cowboy race
that large crowds of people from all neigh
boring towns gathered here today to watch
for their arrival At 2:30 p. IN. Gillespie
arrived and registered. closely followed by
Stevens and Doc Middleton, all arriving
within five minutes of each other. Both
horses and riders showed no sign of fatigue
and all wero in splendid condition.
They remained in town about ten minutes
to water their horses, during which time the
great crowd gathered around and commenced
to pull hair from the horses tails, upon
which Middleton requested that they should
not do so, as the horses suffered from such
treatment equally as much as they would in
pulling hair from their own heads. They
started their great race eastward on u slow
trot with Middleton in tho lead, closely fol-
lowed by tho others. The remainder will
probably register here during the night.

Scale of Prices Fixed in Extradition Cases
With Canada.
New York. June 1S.-On Ottawa special
says: j. A. Ouimet, acting minister of JUS
tice, is engaged in preparing tariff for
judges and commissioners appointed to sit in
extradition cases. He will submit the same
to the cabinet for approval. This is an out
come of the trouble which arose over the un-
paid fees in the extradition case of Harris
Blank and Carl Rosewig.
There was good excuse for some Of the
fees in this case not being paid by the United
States. For Instance, the judge who sat on
the case in Montreal is said to have charged
$40 per day. The statute does not make
provision for such charge. In fact, it is a
direct violation of judges commission to
make any charge In case upon which he
sits. Magistrates and commissioners are
different in this respect.
1t appears that the United States consul
general at Montreal inquired into these un-
paid fees and discovered there was no legal
authority for charging them. He reported
the same to Washington, and when the
Canadian government was asked for the
charges in detail it could not give them
When the tariff is made there will be no
difficulty in collecting the bill of expense
either in the United States or in Canada, as
the case may be.

AWFUL DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.

Ambrose 5. Arnold :Leavenworth, Kan,
Shoots His Wife and KnIs Himself.
LEAvENwORTH, June 1S.-Ambrose S.
Arnold, head bookkeeper for Denton Bros,
grain commission merchants, today shot and
mortally wounded his wife, and then blew
his brains out The family had just finished
their Sunday dinner, when MIR. Arnold de-
manded that his wife accompany him to her
room up stairs, as he wished to talk with
her. Mrs. Arnold took alarm at her hus-
bands action, but finally consented to go.
Arrived there, Arnold accused her of infidel-
lty. Mrs. Arnold Indignantly asserted her
innocence, but her husband, drawing n
revolver threatened to shoot her. She
coolly folded her arms and dared him to
carry out his threat. Leveling the weapon
Arnold fired two shots into his wife's body
and then blew his brains out with the same
weapon. Mrs. Arnold is mortally wounded
and made an ante mortem statement of the
facts of the tragedy. She has always been
highly regarded in the community and no
one believes her husband had grounds for
his belief that she was unfaithful to him.
Two girls, aged years, twins, will be left
alone in the world as u result of the trag-
edy. The people of Leavenworth will care
for them, as neither Mr. nor Mrs. Arnold
was possessed of any property.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The preparation OF
Instructions by the State department which
will soon be forwarded to Ambassador Bay
nrd directing him to make inquiries con-
cerning the condition of Captain w. c.
Miner, U. S. A., retired recalls the fact that
an officer of the United States army is serv-
ing life sentence in an English prison for
murder. 1t is the only case on record of
murderer borne on the rolls of the army and
drawing the pay of his grade. The salary is
not paid to him direct but it goes to his
lately appointed conservatory, and he will
continue TO draw it as long as he remains
alive
III is in consequence of the pay that Am
bassador Bayard will be directed to inquire
into the case. Every few years formal
inquiry of this kind is made through the
regular diplomatic channel lin order that the
War department may feel satisfied that 1t Is
not paying salary to q dead man.
There has been no official report as to his
condition for several years. The last report
from the superintendent of tho Broadmore
Lunatic asylum tells the story of his crime
and confinement.
He was confined in this asylum April II,
1872. His offense consisted of shooting
and killing man in the Belvidere road.

ENJOYED THEIR SUNDAY.

Thousands of Working People and Their
Families Visit the Worlds Fair Grounds.
CHICAGO, June 1S.-There was wild rush
of people to the Worlds fair this morning.
The Sunday-going crowd made no unusual
haste; it took its usual Sunday morning nap
and ate it's usual Sunday breakfast.
The sun was high in the heavens and that
glowing orb had begun to settle toward the
west before the Sunday crowd began to pour
in at the gates of the White City Its makeup
differed little from the crowd that at
tended the fair last Sunday and the
Sunday before. There were sounds of
workingmen, some of them alone and
many of them with their wives and
families. including the babes and dinner
baskets. They strolled about the grounds
through the buildings and took solid com
fort in the wondrous sights there on cxhibi
tion, and if any man imagined that the
wage worker does not appreciate fine paint
ings and works of art he should have seen
the multitude of artisans that fingered in
the halls of the Fine Arts building through
out the afternoon and far into the evening
And when evening came thousands of fami-
lies crowded the benches on the Administers
ton plaza and listened to the music of the
band in the pavilions, and ate the lunches
they had brought out from their homes.
They enjoyed it, too, and when the clos
ing hour came they went home, ap-
1
profitable and happy day. But the art
galleries and buildings containing works of
skill and science were not the only places
! patronized. The inhabitants of Darkest
Africa, Asia and the isles of the sea, tempo
rarily quartered on the Midway plaisance,
drew crowds of people to witness their wild,
fantastic dancing and hear their strange and
| monotonous songs and music. The fortune
telers, magicians, camel drivers and dancers
of the Cairo street, the South Sea islanders,
the Algerians and the Chinese, all enter
| tanned thousands upon the grounds and
thousands thronged about the wonderful
| Ferris wheel, and all day long the captive
| balloon carried visitors skyward and LEI
| them see Chicago, the fair and surrounding
| towns, from an altitude of 1000 feet. And
so another Sunday at the Worlds Columbian
exposition.
The great Ferris wheel, the Eifel tower

to the public next Wednesday afternoon
