The Hawaiian Treaty Dead for the.Time

The Hawaiian Treaty Dead for the.Time
Being.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Hawaiian
treaty is thought to be dead for this ses-
sion. This is reluctantly conceded even
by friends. The action of the senate to-
day in refusing to 60 into executive ses.
sion, thaugh the action doubtless had
some reference to the Hanchette circuit
judge nomination, is aloo accepted as a
conclusive indication that the treaty
would be shelved for the balance of the
session. The treaty matter can of course
be taken up in the extra session which
will convene Immediately after the
present congress dies, but unless some
marked change occurs there is believed
to be no prospect of action upon it dur
ing the life of the present administra-
ton. Possibly the knowledge of it's dis
position on the part of the senate has
some reflex influence on the action OF
the house.
There was to have been meeting of
the ways and means committee of the
house today to consider the Springer
resolution, but it did not take place.
One of the Republican committeeman
said his colleagues united against the
resolution. He concluded the resolution
would be permitted to fall to the ground.
The Democratic members of the COM
mittee are still examining the subject,
but it does not seem likely that the
resolution will be pushed,

THE GOLD RESERVE.
Bonds All Ready for issue and a Pur-
Chaser Found.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Secretary OF
the Treasury Foster was before the ways
and means committee of the house this
morning. explaining the condition of the
treasury. He said there was no occasian
for fear that the treasury would be bank
rupted, but admitted that the situation
demanded serious consideration. He
believed the available cash in the treas
ury at the close of the fiscal year would
be only $17 100000 instead OF 0,000,-
900, as he had estimated in his report,
because he had not taken into consid-
Grafton the payment of the Choctaw
claim of $3,000,00O
On the present basis of revenue he es :.
timsted that there would be deficit in
the treasury at the end of the fiscal year
of 1894.
He believed $4,000, 900 more revenue
should be raised. but did not say wheth-
er by taxation or by the issue of bonds.
He also thought the gold reserve should
be raised to S125, 100000.

An Address to Irishmen.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-The National
League of America tonight issued an
address to Irishman. 1t was signed by
the president, secretary and treasurer.
1t 10 in part as follows:
Irishmen are inclined to congratulate
themselves on the seeming beginning of
an era of liberty, peace and prosperity
for Ireland. Home rule for Ireland un-
doubtedly sounds well, but Irishmen
should ponder before arriving at con-
clusions and not allow mere sound to set
their sympathies above their reason.
This measure cannot be accepted as a
full and complete settlement of the
claims of the people, and we have no
hesitation in declaring that, instead OF
9 OF blessing, it would prove curse to
our country. 1t is absolutely unworthy
of the traditions and wants of the
people.

Force, sister of leading shoe merchant
of this city, this afternoon shot and
killed her two sisters. The shooting
was the result of quarrel. They all
moved in the highest social circles oil

insane. She has been considered irres.
ponsible at times, and frequently threat.
ened to kill members of her family. To.
day, when her mother was absent, she
sent the servants out on errands, and
then, going to the room where her sis
ter FlErence was sick in bed, placed
pistol at her right temple aud shot her
dead. Then going to the kitchen, where
the other sister was, she shot her in the
same manner. None of the neighbors
heard the shots. Miss Force calmly
locked the doors and went to the police
station. The bodies of the women were
found by brother, to whom she sent a
message to the effect that her sister
Florence was worse. In response he
went home to find the bodies Of his dead

IN THE SENATE.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The legislative
appropriation bill was taken up after
being amended, but no important par
ticular passed. Mr.. Dawes moved the
senate to insist on its amendments and
ask conference. The motion was
agreed to, and conferees on the part of
the senate appointed. Sherman moved
to proceed to executive business. Cor
man thought the senate should rather
60 on with its legislative work, and he
called for the yeas and nays on Sher-
mans motion. The motion was defeat

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.--A fight, which
may next week prove to be q serious
one, was inaugurated in the house today.
1t was over the sundry civil appropria-
tion, which contains the Sherman bond
amendment. There are in all 207 amend
nents to the bill. Holman desired that
all except the Sherman amendment,
upon which there is to be debate, be
non an-concurred in.
Mr.. Bland, as the leader of the oppo-
sition to the Sherman amendment.
objected, unless it be agreed that the
amendment should be after debate also
non-concurred in. This suggestion of
Bland's raised the antagonism of Coch-
ran, and no agreement was arrived at.
The silver men then resorted to tilibus-
tering tactics, which were effectual, and
after speech the Bland bill went over
without action.
After some farther debate the commit
tee rose, and, public business having
been suspended. the house proceeded to
pay tribute of respect to the memory
OF the late Senator John Barbour of
Virginia, and then adjourned.

TERMINAL TROUBLE.

General Manager Burnett Declares
That the Men on the Line Are
Well Treated.
Special TO THE MORNING CALL.

Los ANGELES, April 24.-There is no
change in the Terminal Railroad trouble.
Nearly all the men on tie Terminal belong
to various railroad organizations. A few of
the radical ones have endeavored to create
discomfort on account Of the scale Of
wages being lower than on other standard
gauge railroads. at first the majority of
the men refused TO be moved by the
appeals, but the constant appeals OF the
radical among them had the desired effect.
General Manager Burnett has refused to
increase the wages. He declares that the
road being short one the train service is
short and that only as much labor is placed
on the men as Oh the ordinary street rail-
road systems OF this city. The men are
home at each meal and have their evenings
to themselves.
He declares that the income of the road
does not warrant any increase of wages.
He further says that he would be sorry to
lose some OF the men. but lie has five appli-
cations for every position Oh the road. Mr..
Burnett said that there would have been
no discomfort had the majority of the en-
ployes had their own way. He said it was
an attempt TO coerce the road into paying
the wages paid on through roads instead of
the schedule in effect on short local roads.
The men would say nothing this morning
as to their plans, ard it is believed that
nothing radical viii be done, at least right
away. The leading spirits of the move for
high wages are in conference with the
delegates from the brotherhoods. An at
tempt Will be made to compromise the
matter. but it is doubtful If Manager Bur
mott will listen to even a compromise.
Most of the men on the road are opposed to
a strike.
