MOUNT VERNON, Ca, March 6.-The
most horrible tragedy that ever stained the
fair name OF Montgomery county occurred
at this place last night between and o
o'clock. T. J. Smith, Jr., shot and in-
stantly killed G. W. Bigby, the Savannah,
Americus aud Montgomery railway agent
at this place. The facts that led to this
tragedy make up one OF the most sensa-
tional killings that eversoccurred in gthis
section. Mr.. Smith had for the past three
weeks suspected Mr.. Bigby, who boarded
with him, of being too intimate with his
wife. These suspicious eliminated into a
reality when Mr.. Smith discovered the pair
In the parlor Of his residence Saturday
night.
He had gone to church expecting TO find his
wife there. Not finding her he returned home,
and Hooking through the window into the
parlor he made the discovery that led to
the tragedy. Slipping to his room he Sc
cured his rife, 32-caliber Winchester, and
made his way into the parlor and without
word shot Bigby dead the ball entering the
back OF his head and coming out near the
nose. The shot was instantly fatal. Bigby
was sitting down and never moved or
spoke after the fatal shot. Smith
Immediately sent for the sheriff
and gave himself up and Is now in jail. All
of the parties concerned were of the best
social standing, and there was not whisper
OF suspicion until the crack Of Smiths Win
chester broke on the quiet Sunday
night. The unfortunate affair has cast
gloom over our entire community. The
coroner's jury has just decided the killing

GRESHAM TAKES TEE OATH
The Other Cabinet Omcers VIII be
Sworn In To-day.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-Judge Gresham
took the oath of office as Secretary OF State
at the state department this afternoon.
His commission, with those OF the other
members of the cabinet, had been received
at the white house from the de-
partment and were banded TO the
President, who signed them Immediately.
Shortly afterward Judge Gresham came
over TO the white house, but the President
was busy shaking hands in the east room
and his new Secretary of State made no
attempt to see MIN. Instead, he was driven
over to the state departments in the carriage
OF Secretary Thurber, who accompanied
him, bearing the commissions of the mems
Ders of the cabinet. Mr.. Wharton, the Act
ing Secretary of State, was absent at
lunch at the time, but Mr.. Adee, the second
assistant secretary, was there and In his
presence, Col Crook. the disbursing officer
and notary public Of the white house, ad-
ministered the oath Of Office. Mr Wharton
afterward, siRusd Judge Grssham's
commission and the latter will perform a
like office tomorrow for his associates In

seven other cabinet officers will take the

tween 10 and II O'Clock tomorrow morn.
ing. The oath-takiug will be accompanied
by mere ceremony than has been customary.
and it is said that the method TO be pur-
sued tomorrow is without precedent. 1t
has been the custom for uewly-appointed
cabinet officers to be sworn in at their re-
spective departments in a manner
devoid of formality. In the post
office department one of the
clerks has administered the oath to each
successive Postmaster General for several
decades, and the proceeding tomorrow will
be great disappointment to him. When
the oaths have been taken Judge Gresham
will sign the commissions Of his colleagues
in the cabinet. This afternoon when ho had
been induoted into Office he went to the
white house and paid his respects to the
President. The new Secretary of State was
ingrossed with the duties devolving upon
him and failed to meet many friends who

Restoration of the Monarchy Pre-
ferred TO a Native Republic.


ferred to a Native Republic,
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, March 6.-Ths
schooner WitEsmsn arrived to-day from
Honolulu with news up to Feb. Is. Opinions
there as TO the ooG=ss that will be taken by
the United States were as diverse as the
many factors in Hawaiian politics. AS
general proposition, however, American
and German interests in Hawaii strongly
urge upon the government at Washington
the necessity of protecting the business
annexation. The native HawaiiRns are di-
vided on protectorate, ON one side having
innate love for royalty, affection for Prin-
cess Kaiulani, now being educated in Eng
land, and pride in native institutions; and
on the other side desire for greater pros
perity aud the greater enfranchisement
which would follow the Inauguration Of re-
publican rule as one OF the American
states.
The English sentiment against aunexs-
ton is not as strong as that which prevails
against the idea of Hawaiian republic,
ana IL has even been stated on good Ru-
thorlty that at no time within the past five
years WouldGFeat Britain have seriously pro-
tested against the islands forming q part of
the United States. If, however, the United
States should now, from any reason. or in
NNy SShhAtsOAOJs ASOluo W huNib6 buhI q
republican form of governments with
a native ruler succeed the dethroned mon
arch, the opinion is freely expressed that
millions Of capital would be Withdrawn at
once and the native business interests, such
as they are, would be forced TO struggle
against the competition of the Chinese
and Japanese throughout Hawaii
1t has been stated by naval
officers who do not desire their
names published. that In their opinion
bloodshed even would follow the decIara-
ton OF a native republic and that for this
reason monarchy would be preferred or
accepted by the Hawaiian commissioners at
Washington. The general view is that
nothing remains in such an event but the
restoration Of Queen Liliuokalani or Prin-
cess Kaiulant, backed by an American pro-
teotorate or an English one, or annexation
to Great Britain. The government has
reached the point where executive sessions
are largely dispensed with, and the day the
schooner left an invitation was rendered TO
the newspaper representatives Of she United
States 10 visit the ministry and attend a
meeting Of the advisory council. d
