STEVENS AND SPRECKELS.
Inside Facts in the Sandwich Islands
Question.

Inside Facts in the Sandwich Islands
Question.
Throughout the Hawaiian affair Mr..
Cleveland has acted with good sense
and with due regard to the rights of
all concerned. He has shown that it is
impossible to control him for the pur-
poses of conspirators where he knows
the facts and is aware of the designs of
the men who attempt to use the federal
government in furthering their private
schemes for securing unearned money.
The removal of Stevens and the app.
pointment of Mr. Blount will satisfy all
who are not in favor of allowing
Spreckels to carry out his plans
through the completely of the United
States.
It is no longer doubtful that con-
spiracy existed to which Stevens was q
party. It will be easy to show that
the entire disturbance was planned
months in advance and that Stevens
was in full completely with it. Mr..
Charles Nordhoff. who Is now in Homo
luEu for the New York Herald. has Sc
cured evidence that the troops from the
Boston were landed under the orders of
Stevens. before, not after the revolu-
ton. The actual landing took place
between four and five O'Clock Monday
AFTERNOON, and it was. not until the
next day that the provisional govern
ment proclaimed itself-as it would not
have. done at all if Stevens. as mem
Der of tire conspiracy, had not used
United States marines in the capacity
of rebels against the government to
which he was accredited as minister.

M. Tsakni, Russian writer, has pub
ished an interesting work entitled
s.Queer Religious Sects of Russia, from
which it appears that there are not less
than Is, 900, 900 followers of insane and
cranky religions In the empire OF the
car. These communities of devout
and deTuded beings are constantly be-
ing enlarged in spite Of all efforts
made to- the contrary by the govern
ment.
One Of these. sects is known as the
ssRunaways'' Assomas they embrace
the new faith they fly from their vii
lapes and towns, destroy their identity
as much as possible, and henceforth
live as savages. ''The Christs" are an
other curious sect They worship each
other! The chief ceremonies are q
crazy species of danefng, yelling as
loudly as possible; and pounding stones
with sticks.
The sSkoptsys,' believe in self-muti-
lation, butwi not submit to amputa-
ton, even though it would save life.
Like the sChrists, they dance and yell
for hours without infRrnission.

Colorado d Santa Fe Held Up.
Houston, Tex, May 26.-The west
bound passenger train on the Gulf, Col
orado & Santa Fee road was held up and
the express car robbed by two high
waymen Wednesday night, at Coleman,
Tex. The engineer and fireman, as
they stopped to cross a switch, were
covered with a six-shooter, and the con-
ductor, brakeman and porter were in
structed to open the door of the car,
which the robbers rifed, taking every
thing, including pay checks for the
railroad employees.
1t cannot be learned how much was
secured. Every effort is being made to
capture the men, but up to the present
time there is not the slightest clew to
their identity. The train was only de-
layed about ten minutes.

SUSPENSION of Coinage NJ the carson City
Mint.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-Owing to the
small amount of gold bullion deposited
about 100000 per month-and the
heavy expense of coinage at the United
States mint at Carson City, New. Sec
retary Carlisle has directed the suspen-
sion of coinage operations at that mint
from and after the 1st OF June. Gold
and siver bullion will, however, be re-
ceived for parting and refining. The
suspension of coinage operations at
this mint will involve. the reduction OF
the force of thirty eight employees
With the. suspension of coinage at
Carson City, the coinage OF silver dol
lars will be, discontinued for the pres
ent, as there is no demand for this
class of money.

It is not known how large an amount
the thirty and sixty days notices call
for to be paid at the expiration of that
time, burt it is probable that confidence
will be fully restored and depositors
will allow their money to remain.

Belief That ~ Least q Portion May

LIVERPOOL, March 21.-Oficials of
the White Star Line company have re-
ceived the full report OF the steamer
Coventry. from Bremen. They state
their advices show that the last life
boat Of the Naronic passed by the Cow
entry was recently occupied by . por-
tion Of the Naronic's crew and they ex-
pressed the hope that the occupants had
been picked mp by a passing vessel.
They also expressed the hope that the
occupants of the other boats had been
rescued. All doubt as to the fate of the
Naronic has been dispelled by the sight
ing Of the life boats. That she il now
at the bottom of the ocean cannot be
disputed, but the cause of the disaster
is, Of course, still amatter Of conjecture.
May Have Struck an Iceberg.
Il may be, judging from the latitude
and longitude in which the boats wsre
seen, that the steamer struck q derelict
or al iceberg, though 1t is still rather
early In the eason for ice to be adrift
30 far south as the banks. 1t is hoped
that the mystery OF the loss of the
steamer win soon be cleared up by the
landing at some port of members OF her
crew. A vessel which has just passed
Deal signalled that she had on board
Eleven Shipwrecked People
and the White Star officials say there ia
q strong probability that they are part
Of the . Of the Naronic. The ar
rival Of this vessel Is eagerly awaited,
as, should the s~hipwTecked persons
on board be from the Naronic, all con-
lecture rs to the causes that led to thu
laundering of the steamboat will be re-
moved.

New York Press: The only comment
president Harrison made upon Mr.
Cleveland's cabinet while on his journey
home was that, with one exception,
every member is a Presbyterian" That
exception is Mr.. Carlisle, who is not a
member OF any church, but who, like his
chief, is inclined to the Presbyterian
church, it is said. An old politician who
has looked into the question Tells me
that there were more Presbyterians in
both houses Of congress than represen-
tatives OF any other two churches and
that he could name more than a dozen
states whose governors were Presby-
terians. When asked how he accounted
for the Presbyterian preponderance in
the conduct Of public Office, he playfully

BREMEN, March 21.-After long con-
tinued anxiety regarding the fate of the
White Star line freight steamer
Naronic which sailed from Liverpool
Feb II for New York and which has not
since been heard of intelligence has
been received showing beyond any
doubt that the vessel 10 lost. The Brit.
ish steamer Coventry, Captain Wilson,
from Fernandina Feb. 10, has just
arrived at this port. She reports that
at 2 o'clock in the morning Of March 4,
when in lat. AZ deg. north, long. Al
west, she passed q life boat painted
white.
Bearing the Name 'sNaronic."
The boat was floating keel upward. Al
Q o'clock in the afternoon of the same
day another life boat from the Naronic
was passed. The mast and oars of the
life boat had been dashed together and
attached to the painter and then thrown
overheard as a sea anchor to keep the
boats head up to the wind and sea.
Judging from appearances neither oil
the boats had been long adrift. The
position Of the drifting hosts was south
by west of Sable island on the banks oil
Newfoundland. There Is . chance that
the occupants of the boats were picked
mp by a passing vessel.

Claimed He Has Been Captured Il
Butte, Mon.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, March 21.-Ths
police here are now confident that there
is some ground for believing that The
murderer of John nj. Clayton at Plum
merville. is in the hands of the authoTi-
ties at Butte, Mon. During the Brock
enridge investigation by the congress
sional subcommittee on elections
the evidence showed that the pistol
from which the bullet was
fired that killed Clayton had
been sold by the Simmons Hardware
company Of st. Louis to a Butte, Mon.
hardware dealer, and from him it was
purchased by a stranger. The authori-
tiles claim that they have positively
identified the murderer.
Four years ago the legislature passed
an act offering a reward of 5000 for
the capture and conviction of the muir
derer, and this act has never been re-
pealed.
