KAIULANI COMING.
The Heir to the Hawaiian Throne Sails
For Boston.
dent-Elect Clevelend After He
Is Inaugurated.

LONDON, Feb. 22.-Princess Kaiulani,
heir to the throne of Hawaii, sailed for
America today, accompanied by her
guardian, Theophilus Davies. In an in
terview with correspondent before her
departure she said she had no definite
plans and would be guided by the adj
vice OF her guardian. She proposed to
go to Boston, remain until after the in
anguration of Cleveland, and then go to
Washington, and probably would make
a personal appeal to the new president.
She expressed the hope that she might
gain the sympathy of the American peo-
pie, and could not see why she should
be summarily deprived of her rights
through no fault of her own, and with
out being even notified to appear in de-
tense of them. She knew nothing of the
affair except what she read in the news
papers.
She declined to express any opinion on
President Harrison's message recon-
mending annexation, or whether she
would accept the monetary consideration
IN case 1T was done. She evidently con-
siders her case hopeless, and declared her
self entirely opposed to the policy of the
queen which led to her overthrow. She
did not want protectorate for Hawaii,
but independence. She favored the idea
OF her guardian that regency be APP
pointed for three years, with President
Dole of the provisional government as
president, she to be crowned queen at its
expiration. It was evident she was guided
by her guardian.

FIERCE BLIZZARD.
New York, Pennsylvania and New Eng
land Storm Swept.
Railway Traffic Blockaded and Business
at StandstiII-The Storm Very
Disastrous One.

New YORK. Feb. 2.-Throughout the
New England states and Pennsylvania a
fierce blizzard today has been raging. In
this city a heavy snow fall this afternoon
gave place to a gale which banked and
drifted the snow badly. In the state, train
service in many localities is suspended
and on some roads entirely abandoned.
All regular trains on the Boston & Albany
are abandoned. From all over Massa-
chusetts come reports of damage and the
storm is pronounced the worst of the
season. In New England like affairs are
reported and the storm promises to be
more disastrous than the blizzard of four
years ago. On the New York & New
England road travel was almost at a
standstill all day.
In Pennsylvania matters are even worse
and the railroads everywhere are block
AIDED. The snow has enforced idleness at
every mine in the anthracite region. A
brisk wind is drifting the snow badly in
all quarters and trains in attempting to
move use from two to five engines and
even then trains have to be abandoned.
Country roads are closed by deep drifts
and farmers pick their way across the
fields.
A passenger train on the Reading &
Lancaster due in Lancaster this morning
at clock, stuck in a drift at a junction
and two engines sent to its assistance are
fast in a six-foot bank at Petersburg.

M'KINLEY's FINANCIAL TROUBLE.
A Plan for an Adjustment Is Finally
Agreed Upon.

Pian Tor an Adjustment Is Finally
Agreed Upon.
CLEVELAND, Feb. PA plan for an
adjustment of the financial affairs of Gov
ernor Mckinley was decided upon today
at conference of some of the governors
friends. A statement received last night
showed that he had endorsed notes for
Walker aggreRating over 800, 900, and the
total may be Sis, 600. Mr.. Kohlsaat of
Chicago, Colonel Herrick and James
Hoyt of this city and others attended a
conference where Governor Mckinley ex-
pressed desire to make an assignment of
all his property and Mrs. Mckinley in
sisted upon doing the same with
hers. The plan finally decided upon
was: The governor makes absolute
assignment OF all property to Messrs.
Kohlsaat, Herrick and Judge Day. In
ley's persistent wish deed was executed
by her conveying her property to the
trustees for the benefit of her husbands
creditors. This deed was placed in the
hands of Honorable M. A Hanna, of this
city, to be dealt with in his discretion.
When the transfer was concluded Gov
ernor Mckinley said to an Associated
Press representative: 'sThere is little for
me to say about this unfortunate affair.

SWITCHMRN STRIKE.
Three Hundred Men on the Chicago
Belt Line Go Out.
Six Railways Unable to Move ANY of
Their Trains-The Strike Is Liable
to Spread to Other Lines.

CHICAGO, Feb. 22.-The switchmen and
switchtenders on the Chicago & Western
Indiana road went on a strike tonight.
Louisville, New Albany & Chicago, Wa
bash, Chicago & Eastern Illinois, Chicago
& Erie, Grand Trunk and Atchison, To-
peka & Santa Fe enter the city, not a
train over those roads is able to leave the
city tonight. The strikers this morning
presented demands for an increase of %
per cent. in wages to President Thomas
and Superintendent Warner of the Belt
Line and a long conference resulted. The
officials were not ready to grant the men, s
demands Immediately and another meet
ing was arranged for later in the day, and
as late as o. clock President Thomas de-
clared that there would be no strike, and
the switchmen said the same.
Two hours later without any warning
and with no further developments IN the
negotiations the men quit work, and
business is at standstill. Nothing was
known of the strike until a suburban
train was halted at Sixteenth street by an
open switch Signals were given the
engineer to Hcome ahead but as he
could plainly see that the switch was
Opcu dASdu Vi Hill, Ne declined TO move,
and the passengers were compelled to
alight and seek other means of reaching
their homes.
The strikers do not exceed 800, but the
probability is that the strike may spread
to other roads. The police were at once
notified, and a large force of men was
sent to the yards to quell any possible
disturbance, but SO far the men have
shown a peaceable disposition.
The police were later reinforced by a
detachment of Pinksrton men and a
force of detectives and watchmen en-
ployed by the road. The latter began
work on the switches and belated trains
were made up and the last of them sent
out by midnight. The prospects for a
settlement of the difficulties are not
bright, as President Thomas declares the
men acted in bad faith with him and did
not keep their agreement as to the length
of time he was to have to consider the de-
mands. He was disposed, he says, to
grant anything reasonable, but states
that the mem S action has released him
from all obligations or promises he may
have made.

A,rEK1cAN B1-aErALL1o LEAGUE.
First Annual Convention Is Called t,
Order in Washington.

First Annual Convention Is Called to
Order in Washington.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The first an
nual convention of the American BIZ
metallic league was called to order today
by President A. J. Warner. Fifty dele
gates from the western states were pres
ent. among them General Weaver, late
candidate for president OF the Peoples
party, accompanied by Mrs. Lease. Mr..
Warner in a speech said the question of
free coinage oyershadowed the tariff ques-
ton which, in his opinion, was but the
result of the restricted coinage of silver
and it was really at the bottom OF the Irish
question; OF the labor question and re-
sponsible for the condition of the laboring
man. He urged the league to fight, not
only against repeal of the Sherman act,
but to labor until silver was put on a
parity with gold. Addresses were also
made by General Weaver, Mrs. Lease and
Senator Stewart.
Interesting addresses occupied the time
of the evening session. Among the
speakers were Colonel Shinn of Kansas,
Congressman Bland and Hatch. The
speaker of the evening was j. j. Huston,
chief Justice of Idaho, who said the legis-
lation of 1878 was unconstitutional and
should be stricken from the statute books.
1t is fact, he said, that not an ounce Of
silver was ever produced in this country
at cost less than 81 per ounce, yet gilded
senators webbing around in the places of
Calhoun and Webster thought silver ran
like sap from maple trees. An adjourn
ment was taken until tomorrow.

on immigrations has submitted to the
Senate a report on the bill establishing
additional regulations concerning immi-
grafton into the United States by increas-
ing by three the number ofS excluded
classes Of aliens The first are illiterate
over twelve years of age, and, speaking Of
these, the report says in view of the
alarming changes taking place in the
character OF immigrants into the United
States the measure is not a harsh one
Aged persons, however. are permitted to
come and join their families. The second
class, those persons partially or wholly
disabled from manual labor, they are to
be made subjects of special inquiry and
proof must be procured that they have
not become q public charge. The third
class of persons are those belonging
to societies who favor or justify
unlawful destruction OF property or life.
Under the present law says the report
they can enter the United States but the
measure proposed will remedy this cond1-
ton of affairs.

AFTER ILLINOIS OFFICIALS.
Proceedings to Begin Against Ex-Auditors
and Treasurers of State.


and Treasurers of State.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills., Feb. 22.-In the
senate this morning the opinion of the
attorney general in response to resolu-
ton touching the fees of state auditors
and taking interest on state funds by
state treasurers was presented. The at
torney- general holds that taking So 900
yearly as the head of the insurance de-
partment and So per day as members of
the state board OF equalization, in addi-
ton to salaries as auditors, by the audi
tors; and the converting to their own use
interest on public monies by state treas
urers, is clearly illegal and that the state
can recover any sums so illegally taken.
He informed the senate that he will
this week institute proceedings against
ex-State Treasurer Wilson to recover in
ter est on public funds taken by him, but
hesitates to begin suits against other de-
relict officials because of a lack of suffic-
lent evidence to carry the cases through
successfully. He asked the senate to
make the investigation necessary to
bring out evidence against these officials,
to the end that they might be proceeded
against. Resolutions to that end were
presented and laid over till tomorrow.

REV. JAMES WALKER of Lemni.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-The southern
express on the Pennsylvania road this
morning collided with an accommodation
train in West Philadelphia. Three cars
of the accommodation train were wrecked.
Four persons were killed and ten injured.
The rumor quickly spread that it was
President Harrison's special, but this
proved unture, as the special had already
passed on its way to New York.
Those killed were in the last car of the
accommodation train. which was cross
ing the track of the Southern express and
was hit full in the middle by the engine
of that train, smashing it to pieces. Pas
sengers on the express train were unin-
iured.
The accident was due to the slippery
condition of the tracks, making it i'm
possible for the engineer Of the express to
control his train.
