growing poorer? We deny it, and we
affirm, and appeal to the assessment

nation, that there are moro fore

the Government was founded. There
are few, n very few, men who count
their wealth by millions, but it is
doubtful if, with the exception of per-

men of to-day are any richer than tho

VEGETABLE SALADS.

Vegetable salads are among the most
acceptable dishes that can be prepared
for spring or summer repast; they
tempt the appetite and impart a flavor
to the rest of the meal. While the art
of making and serving them is very
simple, care should be taken in their
preparation.
The dressing for n variety of vege-
table salads is the same, yet different
favors may be delicntely added, always
being careful that ono does not pre-
dominate over another. 1t is very
important to have only the best ingre-
dients, as wilted vegetables or inferior
seasoning will not make good salads.
The quantity of oil to be used is rather
difficult to decide, but two tablespoon
fuls to one of vinegar is the usual pro-
portion for plain dressings, whilemore
sis required for mayonnaise.
. Lettuce salad should be dressed only
with oil, vinegar, pepper and salt.
Salads are rendered much more at
-tractive when prettily garnished with
leaves, vegetable blossoms,
!321gs of hard-boiled eggs, sliced
radishes, beets or turnips.
The dressing should never be added
to the prepared vegetable until ready
to serve, when the salad should be
stirred as little as possible in order to
retain it's freshness.
The vegetables best suited for salads
are lettuce, asparagus, dandelion,
celery, caulihower, water-cress, beets,
string beans, cabbage, potatoes, GU.
cumbers and tomatoes. es.-Harper's

GLADSTONE CENsURED.

London, Dec. 2O.--The Globe criticises
Gladstone's slurring remarks regarding
Gen. Tracy, eX-secretary of the navy
in last nights debate in the commons
These remarks were in response to an
allusion by Lord George Hamilton to
the judgment of the American ex-secre-
tary of the navy. Gladstone said; II
do not suppose Gems Tracy acquired
such knowledge that the whole pallia-
ment has to defer to the opinion he
sent across the Atlantic" The Globe
says Gladstone's sneer was unprovoked
and utterly unjustifed.

Augusta, Me-, Dec 2O.-Ex-Ministei

Cleveland's severe structures upon him
in his Hawaiian message. Stevens says
the presidents criticism is but a feeble
repetition of Greshams statement pre-
yiously published. president Cleve-
lands grossly untrue and shamefully
Unjust allegation against myself and
the naval commander rests entirely
en- the statements of notoriously corrupt
ministers of the fallen queen, of Will

thoroughly discredited testimony" says
Stevens. 81 repeat here what has been
amply verified again and again, that
neither by force or by threat OF force,
or by any action Of mine, was the fail
of the monarchy precipitated For
months prior to November, 1892, there
had been a continual struggle between
the legislature and the queen as to their
respective rights, and only the remark
able self-possession of the respectable
and responsible men of the Islands pre-
vented an outbreak at an earlier day.
Believeing that there was no prospect
of difficulty Stevens left Honolulu
January 4th on trip to Hilo. Return
ing January 14th in company with Cap
tain Wilt, he says he found the city
in great excitement, and the tide of
revolution ready to surge. Stevens at
tempted to gain access to the queen
and try by friendly advice to arrest
the revolution, but he was too late to
the carrying out her plan of
overturning the constitution. What
took place the afternoon of the 14th of
January ended the monarchy forever.
That the Hawaiian monarchy was over
turned by the United States forces was,
and is, put forth for the sole purpose
Of bringing discredit on the preceding
at Washington, and on
the action of the foreign relations com
mittee of the United States senate

conclusion too clear to escape the most

BRAzIL's REVOLUTION.
DeGama's Troops Said to Have Gained
a Victory

Copyright 1898 by the Associated Press
London, Dec. 20.-A Times despatch
from Rio, under date of December 16,
via Montevideo December 20, says: The
Iinsurgents have directed heavy fire
on the shore front, and all business is
practically stopped. The government
attempted to retake Governadon Island,
and the forces were ambushed by De
Gama's troops. 1t is thought probable
the government troops are entrapped
and will surrender. A correspondent
applied through the British minister
to the Brazilian government for per-
mission to superintend the Red Cross
work in aiding the insurgent sick and
wounded. The permission was refused
on the ground that the men when cured
would fight against the government.

HAWAIIAN MESSAGE REFERRED

Document.
Associated Press.

Associated Press.
washington, Dec. 2O.-The Hawaiian
question was disposed of for the pres
ent in the senate, when, after Hoar's
argument, the message and the accom-
Ianying documents were referred to
the committee on foreign relations.
That committee was directed to inquire
and report whether, and If so, what ir-
cegularities have occurred in the diplo-
matte or other intercourse between the
United States and Hawaii in relation
to the recent revolution in those is
lands.
The resolution for joint committee
Of three senators and three members
10 examine and report to congress upon
the maritime canal company of Mica
ragua, with authority to visit Nlcara-
qua, was agreed to.
The senate also concurred in the
house resolution for holiday recess
from tomorrow until January 3, 1894.
The resolution offered yesterday by
Mr.. Frye, calling upon the secretary of
state for information whether he had
granted to any foreign cable telegraph
company permission to land a line on
the coast Of United States since
March l, 1897 whether such per-
mission had refused such COM
pany prior to iSlla date, was taken up
and agreed to.
Mr.. Hoar addressed the senate on
the Hawaiian question. He reviewed
the events In Hawaii up to the inaugu-
ration of Cleveland, and said "that
there took place certain transaction
which suggested to Americans the ques-
ton, who is the United States of Amer
lea? Who represents in great national
and international affairs, its purposes,
it's honor, its policy, as to foreign rela-
tions? The question as to the legality
of the proceedings as to Blount's ap-
pointment was the question which It
was the duty of the senate to deal
with. The president, when he under
took to decide that question aid with
hold from the people OF the United
States what was doing until II was
settled one way or another, seemed to
have supposed he was the United states
of America. and that whatever that
rhrase meant 1t was but synonym foi

laughter.

CARLIsLEs REPORT.
Several Important Recommendation
Made to Congress.

| hdQS " SODBItSS.
Washington, Dec 2O.-The annual
report of the secretary of the treasury
was sent to congress today. 1t slows
during the first five months OF the pres
cnt fiscal year that the expenditures
o. the government exceeded the re-
ceipts by $29,91S,O95 The secretary as
sumes that the worst effect Of the re-
cent financial troubles and business
depression is past; that the remainder
of the year will show better results,
and he estimates the deficiency at the
close of the year at $2S, 100000. To meet
this he recommends the amendment Of
specie payments, the resumption of the
act Of 1875 to authorize him to sell
three-per-cent bonds not exceeding
5000, 100000 in amount, at not less than
par saying, however, in his opinion,
only the great pressing financial emer-
gency justifes such course. He sug-
gests that the bonds be issued In de-
nominations of $25 and multlpIes there
Of to be sold through sub-treasurles
and postoffices. In case congress should
decline to follow this course, he recon-
mends that the secretary be empower
ed to execute the obligations OF the
government not to exceed $4,000, ,OOO
bearing three per cent, to be sold or
circulated in payment of government
obligations. He points out the necessi-
ty for an extension of the power of the
secretary to maintain large reserve
for the redemption of United States cur
iency. The secretary adds: "As long
as the government pursues the unwlse
policy of keeping its own notes out
standing to circulate as currency and
undertakes to provide for their redemp-
tion in coin at presentation, 1t will be,
in my opinion, essential for the secre-
tary Of the treasury to possess the
means to meet such emergencies as
the one which recently occurred in our
financial affairs" He says the repeal
Of the silver purchase act makes such
a radical change in the currency policy
Of the government that until its effect is
more fully developed he does not con-
cider 1t advisable to recommend fur
ther specific legislation on that sub
ject. He says the great increase in
the bank reserve in the monetary CEN
tres of the country show concluslyey

transaction of business. He finds one
Of the principal difficulties of the treas
ury results from the indisposition Of the
public to retain silver dollars and silver
certificates in circulation. He has
sought to remedy It by increasing the
number of silver certificates Of less de-
nominations than ten dollars. retiring
the larger ones and substituting for
them large notes of other kinds of cur
rency.
The report then deals at length with
the tariff laws. He figures in favor OF
