EXPIATED HIS CRIME.
Anarchist Psllas Has Been Shot at
Barcelona.

BARCELONA, October 6.-Pallas, the
anarchist, who, on September 24th,
made an attempt at the life of Captain
General Martinez Campos, by throwing
two bombs at him, was shot at 9 o'clock
this morning, according to the sentence
Of the court-martial which tried him.
From first to last Pallas refused the
ministrations of the priests, sneered at
their exhortations, laughed at their
pictures of the future state of the un-
repentant, and marched to the place of
execution singing an anarchist song, as
if to drown the words Of the holy
fathers Of the church.
The execution took place in an in
closure near the castle of Montjuich.
A large body oftroops of all arms form
I'd three sides of a square, facing the
death wall against which Pallas was
placed. Outsides the line Of troops
crowds of people were gathered, though
not as great as it would have been but
for the fact that the place of execution
had not been announced in advance,
with the view OF preventing an oppor-
tunity for Pallas' anarchist friends plot
ting dynamite outrage in connection
with it.
The performances being arranged,
the firing squad was drawn up, guns
loaded, and Pallas placed against the
wall, his back to the firing squad, A
sharp order was given, the guns came
to shoulder, and, as the Commanding
officers sword hast Ell downward, a
volIey rang out and Pallas fell forward,
dead
Then the body was lifted up, the
troops marched away and all was over.

THE MIDWINTER FAIR.

The Chronicle says the STAR has
erred in its estimate Of the population
Of the bay district, The phrase was
USED in these columns to correspond
with the term metropolitan district"
which includes the municipalities Of
New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City,
and not the great contiguous area Of
farming land and rural towns. By
I" bay district" we meant San Fran
cisco, Oakland and Alameda, and the
estimate Of $4,000 souls therein was
not far from being correct. The
Chronicle counts the bay district as
covering the better half of California,
thus giving the STAR new basis of es-
innate, which we accept with the remark
that it still leaves a very small show
going population to depend on FIR the
financial success of the Midwnter Fair.
The STAR believes that the fair will be
worth seeing but that It will also
score a deficit, the hard times, the c. asst
jealousies of Californian progress, the
probable pascity of Western travel this
year and the lack of sufficient local
population all go to attest

WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Declares Against King Lo-
bengula.

CAPETowN, October GA dispatch
from the front says that Matabeles to-
day attacked a patrol of Bechunaland
police near Shasta. The attack was
replied to, and after sharp skirmish
the Matsbeles fed to the bush.
The affair derives importance from
the fact that the attack was directed
against the imperial forces which were
protecting Chief Khams, and also in
dcates that King Lobengula intends to
attack Tati and the country under the
British Governments control. The
police will be strongly REINFORCED by
Khama's warriors and some severe
lighting is anticipated.
An official communication has been
received saying that it has been decided
that force of imperial troops will oc-
cupy Tati as soon as possible. Vulun-
teers, well armed and mounted, are
focking from all parts of the colony to
Forts Victoria, Charter and Tati, and
news of an encounter between the
Matabeles and the colonists is expected
at any moment. The colonists are few
in number, though we'll armed, but they
wall find it no easy matter to cope with
the Matabele warriors. The popula-
ton Of Matabele land is about 900, 900,
and every male of age is soldier.
LONDON, October 6.-The Govern
ment announces that the Matabeles
firing on the police justifes a declara-
ton of war against King Lobengula.
Sir Henry Lock, High Commits
sioner-in Chief Of Cape Colony, has
teiegraphed to the Colonial Office,
confirming the news received here
regarding the Matabele outbreak. The
news caused the greatest excitement
here. and it was suggested to members
of the Government that energetic action
was expected, as people are growing
angry at the apparent GOODNESS of Glad.
stones Ministerial associates.
This evening it was announced that
the Marquis of Ripon, Secretary Of
State for the colonies, had sent dis
patch notifying the officials to consider
the affair at Shasta as an hostile act
against Great Britain, which justified
declaration of war against King Lob
engula Gf Matabele Land. The an
nouucement caused the greatest excite
ment at the clubs, hotels and theaters,
where England's latest 'ittle war; is
being eagerly discussed tonight.

THE YANKEES ARE AHEAD.
The Vigilant Beats the Valkyrie in the
First Two Races.

The series of the great International
yacht race between the American boat
Vigilant and Lord Dunravens VAL
kyrie began in earnest on October
9TH. Two days previously race had
been attempted, but the wind was SO
light that it became drifting match in
which the English boat had the advan-
tage. 1t was no race, however, as the
time limit was not made. In the first
real race the wind was light, in which
work the Vlgilant was supposed to be
the slowest. Still she got the lead and
held it throughout the race, beating the
Englshman handsomely by five minutes,
forty.eight seconds. The Vaikyrle peo-
pie had no complaint to make, but
said that in a strong breeze they could
best the American. On the 9th inst.
the second race was run. 1t began
with good breeze and ended in half a
gale This was what the Engllshmen
wanted and some of the admirers OF
the American boat, who did not know
her real qualities, were very nervous,
particularly as The first stretch e the
triangular course was beating to wind
ward, in which the foreign boat is very
strong 1t transplred, however, that
the Yankee was also built for that kind
Of work, for she not only outsailed the
ValkyrIe, but outpointed her in her
windward work, holding her course
better than the keel boat. The Vigi,
liant increased her lead to the turn,
where they came down on the wind,
and here it was feared the Valkyrie
would overtake the Yankee, but on the
contrary, the white champion of the
American flyers did better work still,
and flew to the starting line twelve and
one-half minutes ahead of the Valkyrie,
which was left about two miles behind.
Lord Dunraven was astounded at the
performance of the American, and &C
knowledged that there was no chance

answered us that she had no yellow

doctor to the bark. He found Captain
Spiegelberg and his crew of fourteen
men Frustrated They had been

they were enduring great pain. During

SENSATIONAL CONJECTURE

In the absence of information as to
what Mr.. Cleveland will propose or
the United States Senate will advise
or consent to, in ye Hawaiian affairs,
the Washington news bureaus have
telegraphed mess of theories and
suppostions. Taken with all they have
given the public before-officially, Of
course - their conclusions make
political crazy quilt the like of which
has rarely been spread before the eyes
of an intelligent people, quilt in
which the green Of restoration vies with
the red, white and blue of annexation,
the neutral tints Of protectorate and
the crimson of island anarchy.
1t appears true that the American
Executive has said nothing, limited
nothing, revealed nothing, and that
these multi colored kilograms from the
seat of the American Government
simply go to show that the correspond
ents are ready to put any piece of curb
stone gossip on the wires that they may
hear, so as to save themselves from
being scooped if the news should prove
true, and to fill their quota of words"
with readable matter if it shouldn't.
Considered analytically the last
budget Of conjecture is quite as absurd
as an editorial of Ka Leo or a predic.
ton of Nordhoff. After stating that
Blount had recommended a native and
foreign Pleb,scite, the sapient reporter
concludes by giving bis profound per-
sonal views, as follows:
If Cleveland adopts the recommendation
submitted, it practically means that the Queen
Is to be restored to power, as she is said to be
popular among the natives, each OF whose
votes is to be equal TO that OF foreigner, and
it will mean the further and complete ascend
ency of Claus Spreckels, the Sugar King.
The President of the United States
has no constitutional power to take or
enforce a vote here any more than he
has in Canada or Kamschatka He
may recommend such course to the
Provisional Government but that is ALL
Were he an insane person, and should
he direct an act of war against friendly
State, such as the coercive PLeblscite
idea supposes and proposes, the Senate
would impeach him and stop all war
like proceedings. His whole Hawaiian
policy must depend for its ratification
on the upper branch of Congress which
is lust now in no mood to stand Execu-
tive trifing with the legislative pre-
negatives.
All this data is primary to Americans
but it conveys some new and needed
ideas to Hawaiian Royaists who seem
to think that Cleveland is Car, who
can juggle with constitutions like an
other Liiuokalani, make war at his own
caprice and regulate the domestic con-
Germs of other States at will. Always
and ever he must act in harmony with
the coordinate branches of his Govern
ment or cease to act at all In the
present case, let us add, if the Demo
Gratis in Congress were as insane and
un-American as the news bureaus are
trying to make Cleveland out to be,
the Republicans in both Houses, by
flibusterng devices, could prevent any
legislation in regard to Hawaii SO long
as they might please to do so.
