Mr.. WlLLIS'S INSTRUCTIONS.
Only a Simple Request of Retirement

Only a Simple Request of Retirement
Probable-Commentso OF Congressman.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-There is
every reason TO believe that United
States Minister Willis has already car
ried into effect the instructions issued
to him before his departure for
Hawaii in accordance with the terms
of the letter of Secretary Gresham
made public Saturday. 1t is said that
he will simply request the members of
the provisional government to retire
with promise that the United States
will exercise moral influence to main
tain a stable government on the
islands and prevent vagaries and ex-
eesses. Opinion here is divided as to
what will be the outcome. Some hold
ing that there will surely be trouble,
others believing that the m embers of
the provisional government will be
glad to have relief.
Soon after the reports from Homo
lulu reached the department to-day,
Secretary Gresham hurried over to
the navy department and had a very
brief interview with Secretary Her.
bert, which may have been only an
inquiry as to whether his department
had any news to communicate.
Some expressions by the Hawaiian
minister Mr.. Thurston, published this
morning are said to have given offense
to the administration and a rumor
was about that the Hawaiian repre-
sentatives here would have their ex-
equators demanded. Whether they
give actual offenSe or not THEN posi-
ton is an anomalous one, represent
ing as they do a government which
the United States is willing to see
deposed.
The United States warshipS Phila-
delphia and Adams are now at Hon
olulu with $50 men, and so far as is
known, no steps have been taken to
reinforce them. The Yorktown, ALI
ance, Monterey, Mohican and Ranger
are all on the Pacific coast, and could
gather at Honolulu in four weeks
Senator Morgan, chairman of the
foreign affairs committee, is known
to be strongly in favor of action by
the United States and he holds that
this government could not restore the
queen. Congressman Hill of Illinois,
ex'assistant secretary of state, takes
similar views, as does also Representa-
tive Otis of Alabama. Senator Faulk-
ner of West Virginia and Representa-
tive Cobb of Missouri.

CHICAGO AN kRCHISTS.
They Hold Memorial Services Over the


Graves Of spies and His Comrades.
CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Altgeld and An
archy were named together at the
graves of Spies, Parsons, Lingg,
Engel and Fischer in Waldheim GENE
tary yesterday. A peculiar interest
was given to the memorial demonstra-
ton by the participation of Michael
Schwab, Samuel Fielder and Oscar
Neebe, who were sentenced with their
dead comrades, the first two to be
hanged and Neebe to fifteen years
Imprisonment.
The governor of Illinois was praised
for his exercise of the pardoning
power and Judge Gary was con-
demned, but Fielden and Schwab had
no kind word to say for Governor
0glesby, who saved their necks from
the hangman's moose. Anarchy was
not Haunted with fiery speech and red
flag in the face of law abiding citizens
or sympathizers in the sacred cause"
but there was in the street parade
and the speeches of Fielden
and Schwab an undercurrent of
deathless hostility to society, to the
"capitalistic class" to the institutions
of the country, and to law and order
in any form. Compared with previous
commemorations of November II, 1887,
the demonstration in sympathy
and tribute to the memory of the dead
five was tame.
The most conspicuous man in the
procession was Oscar Neebe. He acted
as marshal walked at the head of the
column, but at the grave he was silent
as the five anarchists who lay under
the gray stone monument faced with
female figure in bronze.

come from Honolulu on the China that
the annexationists will make no resist
anee if the United States orders the
queen put back, but that this govern
ment will have to keep a force of men
constantly on shore to maintain her on
the throne and that will practically
amount to an annexation, with the
singular anomaly of a territory of the
United States governed by woman
who calls herself a queen.

Mello Resumes the Attack and Is Making
Desperate Efforts to Capture Nictheroy.
MoNTEvIDEo, Nov. 14.-Word has
been received here from Rio de Janeiro
that all the banks were closed to-day
and the bombardment of the city by
Admiral Mello was renewed. There
was some heavy fighting between the
rebel forces under Admiral Mello
and President PeixOto's loyal troops
of Nictheroy, the most populous suburb
of the capital, on Wednesday. The
principal point of attack was Fort
Uncagnue, but the fire from the fort
finally sank torpedo boat.
The revolutionists have gained a
fOothold on land in the suburbs of
Saretta and have held it in spite of
considerable skirmishing. Their white
flag can be seen from Rio at several
points.

ON THE FAIR SITE.
The Work of Grading Being Pushed
to Completion.

Increased activity marked the work on
the Midwinter Fair site yesterday, and II
all goes well Concert Valley will be re-
duced to the PROPER grades TO receive the
exposition buildings by a week from to-
day. The number OF teams at work Fri
day was doubled yesterday. and the force
OF laborers was increased to 800. The con-
tractors say that tomorrow they will again
double the working force. and with 1900
men and horses at work the grading Will
be rushed to completion.
Dozens of carriages and hundreds of
foot passengers visited the scene of opera
tions yesterday and in spite of flying sand
many found sheltered spots on the sur
rounding slopes where they could stay to
watch the leveling process being carried
forward so rapidly. The teams coming
down the slope wi tn great scrapeTs full of
sand and those going back formed an end
less procession that resembled nothing so
much as a huge ant hill wherein the &C.
cupants were with common impulse bus
lly Intent upon completing the work in
hand. The greenery of the park formed
hitting background to this busy scene and
the whole made picture such as is not
often seen. The grove of blue gums on
the rising ground to the north have all fall =
en- under the axes of the park workmen.
and yesterday score or more OF men
were busy grubbing out the stumps and fit
ting the ground for the graders.
The ringing axes and shouting teamsters
have transformed this portion of the city's
big pleasure ground, and they are but
paving the way, as it were. for the still
nOi>ier multitude OF carpenters and build
ers who will follow them in few days.
Several hundred men applied for work
yesterday, but as only about $50 could be
used the balance were told to come back
tomorrow morning. when places would be
found tor about 800 more. There were no
grumblers among those who were not
lucky enough to secure employment, for
they all understood that the people in
charge of the fair. as well as the conJrac-
tors, are doing all in their power to better
the present condition of things. In this
preliminary work aces can be found for
only limited number, and those who can
not be placed now may possibly be given
an opportunity to work later on.

BRAVE HANNAH SMELL.
In Male Attire She Served as a
British Marine With Credit.
Philadelphia Inquirer.


There have been many woman warriors
in the world, but it must be admitted that
there have been very few whose deeds
were such as to claim the admiration of
the country for any great length of time.
In the annals of woman'S warfare there
are generally stories of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES,
leading to fanaticism and subsequent pun
ishmenC and disgrace. Seldom, indeed,
has woman warrior been gratefully rec
ognized by the Government of her country
Within the memory of our grandparents
there lived in England woman named
Hannah Smell. who. when but girl, took
the strange resolution of enlisting as
soldier She served as marine on one of
the vessels of a fleet bound to the West
Indies, and showed so much courage that
she was repeatedly promoted. Her sex
was unknown, and therefore it could
never be claimed that Hannah Smells sue
cess was due to parliality or favoritism.
Once, when dangerously wounded, she ex-
tracted the ball herself. fearing that she
might be discovered and discharged. After
long service she returned to her native
home at Worcester. England, where her
adventures soon became spread abroad.
The Government on investigation Of her
really great career granted a pension OF
go. She died full of years and laden with
h0nors in an inn near Mapping.

HOLLY PARK REQUESTS.
Citizens Think Street Indicators Are
Needed.

The Holly Park and Mission-street In
proyement Club met last night at Welsh's
Hall, on the corner of Mission street and
Plymouth avenue.
L. T. Smith reported that the petition of
the residents along the line of Mission
street TO the City Railroad Company, ask
ing for the running Of and extension of its
present horsecar line to the Fve-mile
House, would be considered by the board
of directors of the company at its next
monthly meeting.
A uetition asking for the construction of
bridge across the Southern Pacific Rail-
roads cut or gulch to connect the old San
Jose and Mission roads was read and the
Supervisors attention called therein to
annoyance and inconvenience arising from
the present inaccessibiity of crossing the
railroads embankment The City Fathers
Will be requested 10 compel the railroad
company TO bridge the cut and connect the
blocked streets.
A committee will to-day visit Supervisor
Day. chairman of the Street Committee,
and endeavor to get his assistance to have
the $1,000 appropriated for the further i'm
proyement of Holly Park utilized as soon
as posi- bic.
The annoyance caused by the lack of
street indicators throughout the outlying
portions of the city, as well as in some of
the elder settled sections, was noted. No
street signs inform strangers of the names
of streets, and much useless travelling
about IS done by those n quest of informal
ton. The secretary was instructed to di-
rect the attention of the Superintendent
of Streets to the city ordinance making it
compulsory for owners of corner lots to
have signs with the names of the thor
Oughfares painted and placed in a conspic-
nous place on their buildings or vacant
lots. Should that official fail to compel
property-Owners to comply with the law,
the Supervisors will be appealed to.
Mention was made Of the fire-alarm
signal box promised by the superintendent
OF the hre-alarm service at Plymouth ave-
nue. or Thrty-third and Mission streets.
The box is printed on the official fire.
alarm cards, but has not yet appeared.

gerOus many prOperty-owners protested.
Now the Superintendent of Streets, acting
under authority, has taken the matter in
hand. and the appearance of Alameda's
main thoroughfare is being improved
wonderfully.
Unlicensed Business.
T. L. Barton, representing an East Oak
land tailor Bamed Potter, was arres ted
yesterday for soliciting members TO go into
the "suit-clHb racket without a license.
Barton put up S25 bail and will be tried
next Tuesday. The police also arrested l.
Fountain and J. c. Waterstreet for selling
iewelry under similar circumstances. The
latter were fined $40 each by the City Re-
corder. Later in the day G. Meyers. rep
resenting the Kent shirt manufactory, was
arrested for selling shirts without a
license. The police are using every
effort to rid this city of peddlers and So
licitors who come here from outside cities
and attempt to transact their business
without business licenses.
