BLOUNT'S BLUFF.
Hawaii to BE Restored and Pro-
tectOrate Withdrawn.

hawaii 60 be restored and Pro-
tectorate Withdrawn.
CHICAGO, April 14.-The Tribun e
this morning prints an important
dispatch from Honolulu, date April
8, a. m, which was sent just be-
fore the steamer started. 1t saws
late yesterday evening the guards
at the government building and po-
lice were doubled and sentinels
were placed at the gates of the
former. The meaning of it is that
the provisional government fears
an attempt will be made to rein
state the queen and that Commits
sioner Blount will, back up the act
with the United States marines.
The tenor of everything that has
happened up to date is that the Roy
alists have
The Commissioners Sympathy.
The government believes that if
this attempt is made the argument
used.will be that the PROVISIONAL gov
eminent was formed under the pro-
lection of the United States forces,
and it is the duty of the United
States to put these people where
they were before. 1t may come
true that the guns of the Boston's
marines will be turned against
Americans to again place Liliuoka-
lani on the throne. 1t looks more
like it every hour. What would be
the result were such an attempt
made! A battle. The provisional
government would
Never Give Up
unless compelled to do so by force.
At meeting of government officials
yesterday the advisa bility of exiting
certain royalists was discussed.
This may be done. The statement
has been made that Commissioner
Blount sent letter to each repre-
sentative of a foreign government
here warning them that although
the flag was lowered they must not
interfere. 1t is certain no such doc
ument was sent out.
Administration Retfcent.
Members of the administration
are reticent on the subject of the
withdrawal of the American pro-
tectorate at Hawaii. Secretary
Gresham says he has not vet re-
ceived an official statement from
Commissioner Blount; but is expect
ing a letter by the first mail from
San Francisco, which will probably
contain all the details of Mr..
Blount's Official Movements
since his arrival at Honolulu. When
asked If Mr.. Blount was carving
out the instructions he received
prior to his departure from Wash
lngton, the secretary said, very
frankly, that he could not make any
statement on the subject at this
time.

KING ON TOP.

Alexander Arrests the Regents
and Runs the Government.
BELGRADE, April liking Alex
ander has arrested the regents and
minister of Servia. He has de-
clared he has attained his majority
and has assumed the government of
the country.
A grand banquet was given last
night at the palace to celebrate
King Alexander's success in passing
the examination prescribed for
Servian students. The regents and
ministers of state were present to-
gether with many other notables.
For many months the re-
gents have been abusing their
power and the state officials have
been carrying on the affairs of their
departments in such way as to
cause great scandal The fearless
young king decided to bring matters
to a crisis and end the bad govern
ment. Unsuspectingly the re-
gents and ministers attended
the banquet, and in the
- A0SS " SAS AOVCA1 uCIdCAmCuLS VI
soldiers and police took possession
of the ministers houses and govern
ment buildings. While the festivi-
ties were still in progress the king
proclaimed that he had attained his
majority and had assumed the gov
eminent of the country. AS a mat
ter of fact, however, the king is only
eighteen. When the regents and min
listers heard of the proclamation
they were DUN bounded but they
were at once placed under arrest
and imprisoned in rooms in the
palace. The king then proceede
to the barracks and was received
with demonstrations of JOY by the
soldiers. In the proclamation is
sued by the youthful rulea, it is de-
clared that the rights of the citizens
have been imperiled and the con-
stitutional position of parliament
so abused that the unhappy state of
affairs must end. Dokilch is the
new prime minister.
This morning the king dissolved
the skuptschina and issued new
elect ion writs. The elections will
will be held April 80. The
''Tedeum" was sung in the
cathedral this morning in celebra-
ton of his majesty's accession to
the throne. A royal salute was
also fired. The people cheered the
king who made speech of thanks
from the palace balcony.

GOOD ROADS ADVOCATED.

Committee on Agriculture.

A Delegation Appears Before the House
Committee on Agriculture.
A delegation representing the National Good
Roads League appeared before the House com
mittee on agriculture today and advocated the
insertion OF a clause in the agricultural appro-
priation bill providing an expenditure of
$4,000 by the secretary of Agriculture to as
certain the best method of constructing and
working roads and for o road exhibit at the
Worlds Fair. Vice President Stone Of the
league introduced the subject, and Nessrs
Wright of New York, Crump of Kentucky. Thaver
of Iowa, Perryman Of Maine, Pierson of North
Carolina, members of the league Senator
Chandler and Representative Durborow of
Illinois addressed the committee In support of
the proposition. Mr.. Durborow said
that resolution proposing road
exhibit at the worlds" fair had been
referred to the worlds fair committee, of
which he was chairman. He thought the matter
should be under the supervision of the Secre-
tary Of Agriculture and the item should be-
come part Of the agricultural appropriation
bill. He was in favor OF the plan and would
cheerfuily aid In securing its adoption.
Senator Chandler favored the appropriation
of Sl5, 600 for the purpose of obtaining inform
alton and for an exhibit at the exposition He
was willing to pledge himself not to ask the
government for aid in the building of roads.
Mr.. Wright spoke of the benefit the farm
ers would derive from good roads, and be-
lieved that good roads would increase home
building in the country. He cited examples of
how farmers were hampered in his part Of the
country Colchester, N. W IN getting their pro-
duce to market by poor roads.

Reports of Prospective Gold Shipments Sent
Prices Down.


NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-The opening of the
stock market this morning was active, strong
and higher and opening gains extended
to - per cent. The prospect OF
gold exports, however, again acting as
check upon the speculation, and
realizations were heavy all through the r. r.
list. though no real weakness was seen aside
from New England. which on large transactions
was forced down from 501z 20 49, The cause
OF the decline was not apparent and must be
ascribed chiefly to manipulation.
The rest OF the railroad list inclined to drop
under the pressure, but losses were confined 10
small fractions in all cases. The industrials
however, enjoyed the influence of a new bullsh
manipulation in the present insiders, and sugar
was advanced from 125 to 1857, cordage l TO
1885, and the others all large fractions.
In the late dealings there was a marked de-
crease in activity, while prices remained prac-
ticaily unchanged, and at IL o'clock the market
was fairly nctive and steady at Insignificant
changes from first prices.
The stock market was less animated after IL
o'clock, although the business in the industrials
was still extremely large 1t was said that
81 500. 900 in gold had been arranged for to go
out on Saturday, and this influence kept
the realizstions going. and while fluctuations.
as a rule. were small they were almost invaria-
bly, toward lower prices. New England further
retired to 4SIs and the strong stocks Of the
first hour all yielded q small portion Of their
early gains.
Toward noon the pressure to sell abated
somewhat, and at that time the market was
more quie: and firm generally at Q shade lower
than at the opening.
Sales TO noon, 196, 600.

MIR. ROBINsON's GRAVEL BANK.
An Old Question Growing Out Of Il
Widening Of Hardwood Road.

An Old Question Growing Out Of the
Widening of HARDWOOD Road.
Some time ago when the Commissioners or
dered the opening of Hardwood road a number
OF the property owners who owned land abut-
ting thereon donated G strip sufficient to make
tho same the required width. While
the work was being prosecuted by the
engineer department the workmen struck a
gravel bank in the property which had been
the Engineer commissioner the gravel taken from
this bank was used both on the Hardwood road,
which was being opened, and other roads in the
vicinity. Mr.. Robinson objected to this use of
the gravel, claiming that in view of the fact
that it was taken from the Hardwood road
proper it should have been used exclusively
on that road. He insisted that the Commits
sioners should pay for the use of this gravel
il it were used anywhere else. The Commits
sioners have refused TO grant the allowance and
the matter was taken into the courts. The
original action was commenced in 1892
Some time during the month of December,
1892 Mr. Robinson decided to subdivide his
land and brought q subdivision OF it, signed by
all the heirs, to the Commissioners for their
approval. The plat was approved by the Com
missioners, but was never put on record. as Mr..
Robinson evidently changed his mind and de-
cided not 70 put il on record until the Commits
sioners complied with tie following conditions:
That tho District government pay $4,000 for
the gravel taken and the dedication Of Savannah
street not TO take effect until il is improved by
the District government. The attorney has
submitted these conditions TO the Commission
ers for their action.
