A PARTY QUESTION.

Republicans VIII Defend Harrison's Ac-
ton In the Hawaiian Matter.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Alt is accepted 90
inevitable that the Hawaiian incident will
come up in congress go soon as the see-
sion opens. All indications are that the
division will be made on strict party
lines. Republicans take Cleveland's po-
sition to be a reflection on Harrison's
action in the premises and will doubtless
attack him therefor. Democrats expect
this and are preparing to be put on the
defensive. Democrats believe that at the
opening Of congress Cleveland will send
in message in which he will make pub
lie many facts hitherto unknown to the
country which may put the case in An
entirely new light. This is expected,
especially in view of the fact that Com
missioner Blount's report has never been
given out. Congressman Geary of Cal
ifornia, a member of the committee on
foreign affairs, today said: "All the
facts are not before the people yet, and !
would prefer to say nothing until later"

Agree to Maintain Rates.

CHICAGO, Nov. 15.-Western Associa-

compact to maintain freight rates ON and

the result of the lowering OF divisions to
interior lines, partly forced by the abso-
lutte necessity of making every cent they
can in order to even up the losses of the
summer, aud partly the realization Of
the TACT that there is no necessity fol-

report was true as outlined above. He
said he WAS in favor of making the new
alignment after the congressional cleo
tons next year, when the new party
would get ready for the presidential cleo
ton Of 1896. PETER expressed the ut

FIGHTING A WRONG,
Cleveland's Hawaiian Policy Receives the

Cleveland's Hawaiian Policy Receives the
support of His Friends.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-An official of
the administration, who is acquainted
with all that has been done about
Hawaii, and speaks by the card as to the
sentiments and opinions OF those who
have brought about the changes, said to
an Associated Press reporter today:
1.-THE action of the administration will
70 down into history az one of the glor-
ious acts of the United States in righting
q wrong"
but if the restoration of the queen
has to be maintained by force of arms,
would it not subject the administration
to severe criticism, even if the justice of
the resolution is acknowledged
That feature of the affair do not feel
at liberty to discuss" he replied, and
then went on to say that the theory of the
administration was this: "The provis-
ional government was established merely
to exist until the island was annexed to
the United States. The United States
has refused to annex the Islands and the
provisional government has ended !"
This statement is explanatory OF an I'M
derstanding that Minister Willis has two
sets OF credentials, one to the provisional
government, the other to the queen. The
provisional government is recognized I'M
til the treaty of annexation is
rejected, when it is assumed
1t has ceased to exist and
the old status is naturally re-
sumed. Minister Willis will bring to
the provisional government the first of.
fetal information Of the rejection of an
nexation. Having made this known to
President Dole, it is assumed that the
provisional government would have nc
further standing or existence, and Min
lister Willis would then recognize the
government of the queen, and that
would end matters. In other words,
the administration position is that this
government has not thrown down any
government, but merely upon one gov
ernment's ceasing to exist it recognizes
the old regime.

A DISPATCH FROM MINISTER WILLIS
The Provisional Government VIII Resist 10
The Utmost Any Attempt at Its Over
throW-Gresham Talks.

WAsHINGToN, Nov. 1.-THE contents
OF cipher dispatch from Minister Will
lie at Hawaii to Gresham are now
known. The dispatch informed the de-
partment that the provisional govern
ment is prepared to resist overthrow.
The dispatch contained the statement
that the provisional government has on
hand 1900 rifles, two Calling guns and
four Maxim guns, besides plenty Of am
munition. The available force Of police
officers and guards on hourly duty in
Honolulu is $50, while there is reserve
militia OF 500 and further reserves which
swell the total enrolled number to 100.
1t is supposed that 500 more couli be-
had from the other islands. The col.
lection of arms puts a different phase
on the matter. 1t leaves Minister Will
lis in rather an embarrassing position
for it now transpires that his instruc-
tions did not admit Of his going to the
limit of using marines for acc ,mplish-
ing the queens transfer to the throne
without first informing the state depart
ment OF such necessity His dispatch
indicates that resort to arms il ncces
sary. That the minister will get such
instructions there can hardly be any
reason to doubt, in view OF the poeltivr
position taken by the president.

Four Negroes Horribly Mutiisted and
Murdered In Florida.

Murdered In Florida.
JACKsoNvu.LE, Fla, Nov IA. An al
most incredible lynching story comes
from Fort White, situated near the
phosphate mines and convict camps, 20
miles from Lake City. Henry Boggs and
three other negroes, CHARGED the murder
and robbery of w. j. Duncan, a white
storekeeper, were the victims of the
mob's fury. the report, which is
meager, says Boggs was taken from the
officer and shot, after which his body was
mutilated in a horrible manner. One
account says he was not dead when the
mutilation began. Members Of the mob
cut into the flesh with long knives, and
when he cried out with the pain part of a
Another statement is to the effect that
Sits we're cut and his eyes stitched up
and then gouged out. AS to the other
captives, they escaped, so it is re-
ported, but horrible cries and groans
heard in the swamp shortly after the es-
cape cause people to smile incredulously
at the report. Some go so far as to say
they were treated with much greater
severity than Boggs, one OF them being
burned alive in an effort on the part OF
the mob to extort q confession from him.
Pieces of pitch were set on fire and stuck
into his quivering flesh until he died. An
absolutely authentic account of the affair
will probably never be written, as the
whole community is implicated, and the
region lie q wild one where the people do
not stand on ceremony. 1t would be a
dangerous thing for any man to go there
and undertake to make an investigation.

it's pay being in arrears The Melilla

News OF q Serious Disturbance on the
Mexican Border.
DEMING, New Mexico, Nov. 17.-News
has just reached here of serious revo.
luton on the Mexican border, 80 miles
to the south. Last week Mexican revo-
lutionists to the number of 100 attacked
the town OF Las Polomas and sacked the
stom-house. After the raid, the rebels
fled to the mountains and we're sup
posed to have gone south into the state
of chihuahua. Yesterday they again
entered Polomas, driving the inhabitants
and custom-house attaches across the
line into the American town of Column
bus. They then took possession of the
town. The roads and passes leading
from Polomas south to Ascension, dis
lance OF over 100 miles, are in the hands
of the revolutionists and all communities
ton with the interior has been cut off no
one being permitted TO PASS Several
American and Mexican citizens have
been captured, but have thus far been
released upon surrender of their horses
and ammunition. The rebels desire no
bodily harm except to soldiers, and
these they state they will kill on sight
Americans and Mexicans are coming
| across the line in large mum ers for pro-
lection, and Mexican troops have been
sent from San Jose, near the city of
Chihuahua, and are expected to arrive
at the scene in two days. The rebels are
strongly fortified in the hills and noun
tains of Bocai Grande county, and are
waiting to be attacked. They are we'll
supplied with arms and ammunition,
and are prepared to fight ten times their
number successfully. Large numbers of
Mexicans have joined the rebels since
the first Polomas attack. and their forces
are conservatively estimated at 800
The revolution has evidently been
planned for months. Small parties Of
Mexicans have been passing through
neming eouth for several weeks, and
supplies of arms have been purchased at
this point. General McCook has been
telegraphed for to send United States
troops to protect property on this side OF
the line, and soldiers from For. Bayard
will go south tomorrow. The situation is
regarded as extremely serious.

JEFF Chandlsr's Opinion.

CHICAGO, Nov. l5.-In an interview,
JEFF Chan Her, Missouri's eminent law
yer, said that Cleveland has no more
right to inquire into the methods by
which the provisional government was
established in Hawaii and to use the
military power OF the United States to
overthrow that government than 70 de-
stroy any other government whose min
listers he found credited to the United
States and recognized by this govern
ment when he took the oath of office.
