THE MESSAGE ON HAWAII
viii Be a Complete Review Of the QuoS-
tion From The Beginning.
The President VAL Show That the Queen
Was Overthrow By Acts Unlus.
tilted and Unfrlendly

WASHINGTON, Dec ia correspond
ent of the Baltimore Sun says: "The
presidents message on Hawaii will be q
complete review Of the whole question.
The president will show that the queen
was overthrown by acts sanctioned by
Stevens; that, as it received the ap-
proval OF the United States and was con-
sidered unjustified and unfriendly. it
must be undone. The president will
probably say that Willis was instructed
to first decline formally the proposition
OF annexation, and then to announce
that the United States demanded that
the queen be restored to power peace
fully, but that If she was Wiling to be
seated without the assurance Of this gov
eminent that she would be protected
from harm and retained in power by the
United States, then to take no steps but
to await Instructions from the United
States. The president will say the min
lister found the provisional government
much stronger than was expected, being
seated and its power increasing each
day. All the conditions were such as to
prevent the carrying out Of his instruc.
tons, and now that the president had ex.
haueted his prerOgstives OF Office to bring
about a settlement in Hawaii with
out calling, upon the naval force TO
assist it, there was no other resort for
the pr, sident but to leave the question
for the further action OF congress. 1t is
belived the president will not diverge
from his present policy. 1t is certain,
however, he will hardly urge that force
be resorted to"

WENT DOWN With A BRIDGE
Terrible Accident on the Ohio River at
Louisville.
TWENTY-FIVE OR MORE LIVES LOST
Hish Winds and Insecure False. Work Cause
the Dlsastsr--Patallty Has Marked
the Construction OF the Work.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. ID large
span OF the Jacksonville and Louisville
bridge across the Ohio river fell at half
past 10 O'Clock this morning. The bridge
would have been completed in a few
days. Forty-one men were thrown iatO
the river, but the number killed will not
exceed twenty-five. The accident was
due to the insecure placing of travelling
crane. Last night the wind still further
loosened it, and when the engines started
this morning to draw it back into it's
place the swaying OF the falsework in
the high wind forced it from the poles
upon which it was placed, carrying the
bridge down with it. Ten workmen saw
the danger in time to escape, but forty
one went down no feet into the water.
Three years ago, during the construction
of the piers, AN accident happened in the
caisson by which twelve lives we're lost.
Accidents have been frequent, and it is
said that fifty peraons in all have lost
their lives by them. The bodies OF Ed
Simmons and ten unidentified have been
recovered.
At IL O'Clock twenty-five bodies, horri-
bly, mangled, had been recovered. The
number of wounded is not yet learned,
though it will be large.
The following have been taken out
dead: Lester Garlick, Frank Miller, Pat
Kelly, Frank Simons, Charles Murphy,
j. B. Burke, John Courtney, Bud Cava-
naugh, and a man named Russell Steven
who was injured.
As to how many persons were on the
span when it fell there are conflicting re-
ports. Some of the escaped men say
there were y hundred, and as but few
have been taken out of the water from
the debris the loss Of life is put down as
at least fifty. Others say that just before
the accident mum Der OF men we're called
off the span, and that with those saved
from the water the loss is not more than
is probably correct,
A report from Jacksonville, at the
other end Of the bridge, says hundred
and fifty men were on the span, of whom
only sixty-five are accounted for.

detailed 10 him the Chinese and opium
scheme and it was agreed that Lotan
should receive $50 per head for all the
Chinese landed. Lotan appointed Car
dinell Chinese inspector. Blum and Car
dinell had an arrangement whereby they
divided all above the regular levy col
lected from the Chinese. Blum testified
that Whitney l.. Boise acted as inter
mediary between himself and Lotan.
In one instance Lotsn requested Blum
that when he made payment OF $1,000 to
pay him 500 privately and give Boise
the balance, as Lotan suspected Boise
WAS not dealing fairly with him. In this
way Lotan would only have to give Boise
a divvy on 500 instead Of 5000. Blum
further testified that when the Mer-
chants Steamship Company went out OF
business they owed Lotan in the neigh
borhood Of $4,000.
Blum estimated that the total amount
paid by him to Lotan was $40, 900, and
the amount paid Thomas Jordan $1,000.
