crept up TO 22.26, which was maintained un-
til the next 10-mile mark was pass,d. The
Olympic reached the United States ship
Macarthur, stationed at the west end OF
the run, at 10:41 o'clock and, after taking
quite long time. which was not counted
in the trial, came back on the course. The

she started down on the return trip and
Engineer Eckart stated that the cruiser
was going at even an increasing speed.
1t was shortly after this that word was
sent up from below that there had been
break. On examination 1T was seen that
bolt in one of the feed-pumps of the
boilers had broken, and before the diff
Guilty could be repaired the cruiser would
have to be stopped. AS the contract does
not allow the vessel while on the official
test to stop, but provides that the run
must be kept up for four consecutive
hours, the trip had to be put off until to-
morrow. As far as the Government goes

FIRE IN A THEATER.
The Audience Went Out Without
Creating a Panic.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 24.-About s
o'clock this evening, as the orchestra was
playing the overture in the Henrietta
Theater for the opening play by the Felix
Morris Company. the manager announced
the existence of fire In the rear and re-
quested the audience to quietly retire.
All passed out in order. The fire origin
ated in the auditorium. an uncompleted
portion OF the structure and was CON-
municated to the theater proper. Within
two hours the whole quarter of a block
had been burned, entailng loss estimated
at from S600.00 to S700.O The building
is a total loss, estimated at $1,000 and
was owned by II. L. Crittenden, who did
not carry more than $4,000 insurance.
The Hotel Crittenden Company lose $780,
600 in furniture alone. Dickson & Talbot
Of Indianapolis, were lessess of the Hem
rietta. They are also lessees of the Park
Thearer in the same block, which was also
consumed. The loss of Dickson 81 Talbot
at both theaters is between $50, 900 and
$4,000 The loss of the Felix Morris

MELILLA, Nov. "a. - The Sultan's
brother has assured General Marcia that
he will answer for the complete submis-
sion of the Arabs.
MADRID. Nov. 24.-The Queen Regent
to-day presided at Cabinet council which
met to consider the dispatches from Gen.
eral Marcais in regard to the negotiations
with Muley Araaf. brother of the Sultan
of Morocco. Muley Araaf assured Gen.
erai Marcais OF the Sultan's friendship for
Spain. and promised to do his utmost to
avoid rupture between Spain and Mo-
rocco. He ognized the right of Spain TO
build forts on her own territory. He re-
quested. however. that time be given the
Sultan to arrive at Fez and disperse the
the Riffs, and asked meantime that the
Kabyles be allowed to trade freely with
Melilla. General Marcais declined to ac-
cede to Muley Araafs requests, declaring
that it was impossible to suspend work on
the forts or the advance of the troops for a
single moment. Neither would he permit
the rebels trade advantages while they re-
mained unpunished.
LONDON, Nov. PA dispatch to the
Daily News from Madrid says that after
the meeting of the Cabinet council the
Government telegraphed Marcias at Mel
lila instructing him TO intimate to the Sui
tan's brother that Spain defines to accept
his proposals and would continue oper-
ati0ns against the Arabs forthwith, hold
ing the Sultan responsible for the yioia-
tion Of the treaty of 1860.

pouring out molten glass until the blow

government toward Colonel Blount. Con-
hdent OF justice of its cause. the Provi-
slonal Government afforded the Commits
sloner every possible facility for OBJ
tanning information, and spared neither
Time nor money in furnishing him
with full details on every subject
under investigation. While 1t was sup
posed by the Provisional Government and
Its friends that the chief object of his
mission was to report upon their offer OF
annexation to the United States. he has
carefully concealed his real object which
seems to have been to make out case
against the character of the former repre-
sentative of his own Government.

Under the direction of the Minister of
Finance, other officers of the Hawaiian
Government made elaborate and accurate
reports for his use on a variety of sub
lects. He never. however, offered
to have my testimony taken down in
regard to the facts of the late revolution,
of which be knew that had been an eye
witness. While do not question his hon.
esty of purpose, his methods were those of

an astonishing piece of special plead
ing. 1t is pervaded from beginning

the American colony, built up aud
fostered by the policy of the United States
for the last forty years which has created
the civilization of these islands, developed
their resources and opened an important

HELD A LOVE FEAST.
Governor Mckinley Sounds /,
Note of Warning.
The Country Is Suffering Under the
Threat of Democratic Tariff
Legislation.

BOSTON, Nov. 24.-Twelve hundred Re-
publicans sat down to love feast at the
Home Market Club in the big Mechanics
Hall this evening. The galleries were
crowded with several thousand more,
while the air was alive with enthusiasm.
Among those present were: Governor
Mckinley of Ohio, Tom Reed of Maine,
Governor Greenhalge of Massachu-
setts. Governor Fuller of Vermont, Con-
gresham Cousins of Iowa and Senator
Roar.
After dinner President Bent introduced
Senator George T. boar as the first
speaker. After Hnar came Govern or-elect
Greenhalge and Governor Mckinley of
Ohio followed and was received with
clamorous applause. He said: "Ths
year, In Massachusetts as in Ohio, politics
was business and business was politics,
and unitedly they triumphed. is anybody
any longer 10 doubt about the real trouble
in the country to-day? The President of
the United States iD his August message
announced great fact. He said
1t may be true that the embarrassment
from which the business of the country is
suffering arises as much from evils appre-
hended as from those actually yexisting.' This
Is true. Remove the apprehension of
threatened tariff legislation, remove the
scare Of promised free-trade bill, remove
the fear which has settled upon every
business interest, and confidence will re-
turn. What would be more welcome to
the business interests Of the country than
an assurance that this Congress would
adjourn without meddling With our indus
trial legislationp / sound q note Of warn
ing here tonight The effect Of the pro-
posed tariff legislation. whether intended
or not. is an unerripg blow at labor which
will be instantly felt in the home of every
operative in the United States"
Congressman Thomas 8. Reed spoke
next. He said: "Even if we should be
successful in defeating any effort of the
Democratic party to carry out the pro-
gramme of their party platform, we should
not forget that it is our duty to push for
ward. You have great duty before you,
duty for the people. This is country
where the majority will rule, sooner or
later"
The other speakers were Congressman
Cousins of Iowa, and Hon. William Chance
of New York.

conditions under which the Olympia started
on her official trial trip over the course in
Santa Barbara Channel. While thus IA
vored. the trip was a failure, not on ac-
count of the Olympia's inferiority. but
because of slight accident to the machin-
cry. The cruiser had gone over the course
from east to west at an average speed of
22.02 knots per hour, and turned and
started back at still greater speed.
Shortly after entering this run small
bolt in one of the feed pumps gave out
This necessitated starting the auxiliary
pumps in the port boilers. The boilers
then got to foaming and the port engine
stopped for short time. making the aban-
donment Of to-day's run obligatory. The
ship continued down the course at good
speed. nevertheless, but shortly after reach
ing Goleta Point slowed down and came
into harbor without going over the course
She dropped anchor at 1:15 p. NJ.
The average revolutions of the engines
during the trip were 140. the maximum142
The boilers steamed easily at 100 pounds
pressure. The cruiser kept at nearly the
average speed during the entire forty
three knots. and did not vary one knot
while on the course. The maximum speed
was 22.26, which was kept up for several
miles. The break does not seem to dis
concert Mr.. Scott, who is more than well
pleased with the great speed displayed by
the cruiser when her machinery was in
perfect condition. Engineer Eckart says
that another trial will be taken as soon as
the break can be repaired and the engines
cleaned. which means that the Olympia
will probably start on the second trial to-
morrow morning. Commander Cotton was
enthusiastic over the Olympia's show of
speed, and stated the average speed at
22.15. He declared her to be the best boat
in the navy. The average of 2202 is that
given by Engineer Eckart.

FORCED FROM OFFICE
Effect of the Bank Scandals on
the Italian Cabinet.
Premier Giolottl Wants to Be on
the Floor to Express His
Opinion.

RoMF, Nov. 24.-The Chamber Of Depu-
ties was thronged to-day. Cavelotoi caused
a lively scene when the minutes of yester-
days meeting were read. He complained
that the sitting was closed when the Ex-
treme Left was about to submit a motion.
The President commenced an explanation
amid great excitement. the Extreme Left
meanwhile deneuncing the Ministers.
Minister Of Finance Crimaldi warmly de-
Tended himself against the attacks Of the
Extreme Left. declaring that heswas an
honest man aud equally sOlicitous of pub
lie morals as were his opponents.
Premier Giolitti. before making the min
isteTial declaration, declared he wished TO
state in his own name and in the name of
his colleagues that they wished to resume
their seats in the Cham Der of Deputies in
order to have full liberty of speech. The
remarks of the Premier caused much ex-
citement in the chamber. especially the
Extreme Left. When the noise had some
what subsided GioItti proceeded to an
nounee the resignation Of the Cabinet,
adding that the King had reserved his de-
cision. and that the Ministers would mean
time remain in office.
The Minister of War submitted report
of the military position of Italy in July,
1891, as compared with her position at the
present day. The report shows that the
minimum peace-effective force has not
changed, but that the maximum is greater
and the waI-effective force is nearly ], 1,OO0.-
600 men compared with 700, 900 at the time
mentioned. The time for mobilization has
been reduced six days and the army pos
sesses 1,625.000 Motterly repeating-rifles
and the garrison artillery has been in
creased by 250 powerful guns. The object
of the report Is TO show the efficiency of
the army, which has been questioned In
the newspapers.
After the dispatch Of current business a
motion to adjourn was made and the Ex-
treme Left strongly denounced Giolotti,
who warmly retorted. The session finally
closed amid great uproar.
While Signor Giolitti was announcing to
the Chamber that until the new Ministry
was appoin ted he and his colleagues would
conduct the business Of the Government
a voice called out "Kobber." All this ali
the Ministers sprang to their feet In the
widest excitement and demanded, almost
in one voice, "Who said that% It was
discovered that the man who had uttered
the exclamation was stranger, and the
ushers were thereupon ordered to clear
the galleries. After the incident debate
ppeared impossible. and the disordera
finally led to the whole body of the oppo-
stion filing out OF the chamber, followed
by deafening yells and shouts. The Pres
ident then declared the Chamber closed.

cap of the Pacific Coast. The figures
given out of % o. for the average prove on
second calculation to be below the actual
speed. The corrected average speed for
forty three knots is 22.15. and at one time
during the trip 22.S6 was reached. The
time of the trip was taken from various
stations, as follows: From Liberty TO

average 22.21 knots per hour. Another
average given for the whole trip was %. 2.
Tonight threatens storm and it is pos
sible that to-morrow's trip may be post
poned.
Engineer Eckart gives the average speed
OF the cruiser for forty-three knots at o.
this as revised and corrected.
