 "A careful consideration of the facts will, think. convince you that the treaty which was withdrawn from the senate for further consideration should not be resubmitted for its action thereon. Should not the great wrong done to feeble but independent state by an abuse of the authority of the United States be undone by restoring the legitimate government? Anything short of that will not, I respectfully submit, sat- isfy the demands of justice Can the Unit ed States consistently insist that other na- tions shall respect the independence of Hawaii while not respecting it themselvesf Our government was the first to recognize the independence of the islands and should be the last to acquire sovereignty over them by force and fraud"

THE COLUMBIA'S FAST RUN.
The New Cruiser Proves to Be the Queen
 of the Navy.

BOSTON. Nov. 14-The new United States cruiser Columbia is out for a trial spin to- day. Tomorrow she will rest preparatory to making her official trial trip on Thurs day. Her first run at sea was the quickest ever made by war vessel In this country, beating the New York's time over two hours.
 The trip from Cape Henlopen Southwest hghtship to Nantucket South Shoal light ship, 245 2-10 knots distant, was accom- plished in IS hours and minutes, an average speed of SG9 knots an hour. The cruiser New York's time for this distance was IA hours and 30 minutes.
 This would make the Columbia's jour ney faster by nearly 1& knots per hour. From Nantucket South Shoal lightship to Minot's ledge the speed was kept up.
 The distance from Cape Henlopen South west lightship to Minot's ledge, through south channel, is 407 40 knots, and the Columbia made the trial trip in 2l hours52 minutes, an average of 1S.6 .63 knots an hour. Tue cruiser New York, when on the way to Cape Ann for her trial trip, made the jour ney in A hours l5 minutes, and this had hitherto been the record for this distance Both runs were made under natural draft
 Edwin 5. Cramp, who has charge of the ship, says that she will easily exceed the contract requirement. of 21 knots an hour A speed sf % knots would earn for her builders premium of S200,000.

A MOB FOlLED.
The MiIitia Called Out to Guard an Ae-
 quilted Prisoner.

quilted Prisoner.
 JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Nov. 13.-For near ly week past young man named Walker has been on trial at Orlando for complicity in the murder of old man Marot In June last. Saturday he was acquitted on rath- CT doubtful alibi. An Orlando special says: The sequel to the acquittal of Walker occurred when 8 mob went to the jail and attempted to gain access, apparently in- tending to shoot Walker in his cell.
 All the afternoon excited men gathered on street corners and discussed the verdict After nightfall men began collecting from the neiRhborhood of the crime-generally on horseback and armed with shotguns.
 They raided the foundry and captured a number of sledge hammers and crowbars and started for the jail, intending to beat a hole in the wall and gain access to the cor ridor, whence they could readily shoot the prisoner
 Sheriff Anderson hurriedly gathered few men and prepared to guard the jail, while he sent word to Judge Bryant to or der out the militia. The mob came up ex- pecting no real resistance, but when they found the jail guarded by the militia they were hampered by the lack of a leader. Finally the mob dispersed. The guards re- mained under arms till morning. The mob was composed not only of the best citizens on the line of the F. c. and F. railroad, but many good citizens of Orlando. It Is high ly probable that Walker will be tried

News From Honolulu.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-The state de- partnent has received a communication from Honolulu telegraphed from San Francisco. It arrived by the steamer China and was written in the navy department cipher. Experts set at work upon the dis patch and labored over it for several hours. After securing the substance of this of ficial communication Secretary Gresham took a copy of it out to Woodley for a con ference over the matter with President Cleveland. Nothing was given out from the state department as to the substance of the dispatch.
 F. P. Hastings, secretary of the Hawaiian legation, was shown the dispatch from San Francisco containing the news of Minister Willis arrival in Honolulu and his ap- pointment to present his credentials to President Dole.
 This news was obviously great relief to the minds of members of the legation. They declined to talk about the matter as usual, but the satisfaction expressed at the presentation by Minister Willis of his credentials to President Dole suggested that they might have feared that the min ister would be found to have been accred- ited to the queen

MAY REIGN AGAIN.
SECRETARY GRESHAM URGES QUEEN
 LILIuOKALANPS RESTORATION.
In a Letter to the President He DeclareG That She Was Deposed Through the In- tervention of the United States Authori- ties and Should Be Restored.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-A letter of Sec retary Gresham to the president. dated the 18th, concerning Hawaiian affairs, has been handed out for publication. In it he takes the ground that the marines landed from the United States steamer Boston at the time of the revolution were not landed to protect American life and property, but to aid in overthrowing the existing govern nent. Their very presence, he says, implies coercive measures against it. The provi- sional government was established by the action of the American minister and the presence of troops landed from the Boston, and its continued existence is due to the belief of the Hawaiiaps that if they made an effort to overthrow it they would en- counter the armed forces of the United States.
 MT. Gresham Theorixes.
 The letter concludes as follows: 'The earnest appeals to the American minister for military protection by the officers of the provisional government after it has been recognized show the utter absurdity of the claim that it was established by a successful revolution of the people of the islands.
 Those appeals were a confession by the men who made them of their weakn ness and timidity. Courageous men, conscious of their strength and the justice of their cause, do not thus act. It Is not now claimed that majority of the people have not the right to vote under the constitution of 1887 or ever favored the existing author ity or annexation to this or any other coun- try. They earnestly desire that the gov ernment of their choice shall be restored and it's independence respected.
 MT. Blount states that while at Homo lulu he did not meet single annexation ist who expressed willingness to submit the question to a vote of the people, nor did he talk with one on the subject who did not insist that if the islands were annexed suffrage should be so restricted as to give complete control to foreigners or whites, and representative annexationists have re- peatedly made similar statements to the undersigned.
 Surrendered Provisionally.

In spite of a lesden sky, from which cold rain fell steadily throughout the day, the services at the graves were attended by nearly 2,s0o persons. The occasion was made notable by the fact that Samuel Fielden, Michael Schwab and Oscar Ncebe, the comrades of the executed anarchists, who were sem fenced to Joliet, but pardoned out recently by Governor Altgcld, were present Et the grave two of them, Fielden and schwah, being the orators of the day

nIav Re Enthroned NOV.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.--Unless he has met with some accident, United States Minister Willis has now been in Honolulu week, and it is not improbable that he has carried into effect the instructions he took with him and which ahave been so well kept secret on this side of the Pacific. If he has done so, the steamer which left Honolulu Saturday will bring the news of the consequent events and will reach an outlet to the rest of the world with 1t on next Saturday.
 Whatever recourse the administration may have determined upon to secure the restoration of Queen Liliuokalani, 1t is very evident that Secretary Gresham does not expect that extreme measures will have to be resorted to. The course proposed to be pursued seems to be to request the pres ent government, in the name of the United States, to give way quietly to the restora- tion of the queen.

TO MAKE A TEST CASE.
AN ATTEMPT TO INDlcT ANTICIPATE
 oLlcS IN BUFFALO.
Seventy- five Citizens, Members of the American Protective Association, win Re Charged With Conspiracy and Per baps With Treason.

Re Charged With Conspiracy and Per
 baps With Treason.
 BUFFALO, Nov A-Seventy-five citizens of Buffalo lie under charges of conspiracy, which will be presented to the next grand jury when it meets on Nov. 29. All of them are alleged to be members of the American Protective association, the anti Catholic secret society.
 The case will be in the nature of a test to obtain an opinion from the courts whether this society comes within the scope of criminal conspiracy, and its literature under the ban of the law as matter tending to incite riot The names of the defendants cannot be obtained at the present writing, but 1t is known that the proprietor of the newspaper printed as the organ of the American Protective associa- tion, several attorneys, merchants, bus' ness men, some civil officers and even a clergyman are on the list.
 Members Take Solemn oaths-
 It has been difficult task to obtain these Ii ts for prosecution, as each member subscribes on solemn oath never to divulge his own connection with the order or the name of any fellow member. The funda- mental principle of the order is boldly expressed. 1t is stated in the official litera- ture of the society in this language: "As all Catholics hold a mental reservation in favor of the pope while swearing allegiance to the United States, these men should not be permitted to hold any office within the gift of the American people"
 If it Is possible, the graver crime of treason against the state will be proved, which offense is punishable by 10 years Imprisonment. It is claimed that the American Protective association 'prim- er," the tracts entitled What Is Itf" and Read and Refiect' and the ritual of the order can be considered matter calcu- lated to disturb the peace of the state and incite to riot the populace by appealing to social and religious prejudices and misrep- resenting the beliefs and principles of a large body of citizens.

 How often we hear it said With sneering, eupercilious tones And sighting toss of the head. I am only a workingman,
 And proud am of the name. Though my face be grimed with dust ot
 toll
 I count it no sign of shame. I am only a workingman. Though humble my toll may be, At the carpenters bench at Nazareth Worked the Man of Galilee. Yes, his hands were hardened with toll; Ofttimes dropped his weary head As the Lord of Creation labored To earn his daily bread. He was only a workingman,
