HALIFAX, N. S., May 12.-The full
rugged ship Munster has arrived from
Iloilo. Captain Graham reports good
weather coming around the Cape of
Good Hope. In the neighbood of the
West Indies, he passed the wreck of the
bark Sirius, abandoned March 9, dismast-
ed and waterlogged. On the last voyage
of the Halifax schooner Helena to the
West Indies, the shipwrecked crew of
the foundered American barkentine Ed
ward Gushing were picked up from an
open boat and landed in Porto Rico.
Captain Martel, of the Helena, and men,
bers of the crew displayed such bravery
in rescuing the castaways and treated
them SO humanely afterwards that the
Uaited States government has authorized
Consul General Frye here to present
gold watch to the master. a gold medal
to the mate and 500 in gold to the two
sailors. The Edward Cushing belonged
in Portland, Me. She left Canning, N.
S., in January of the current year, en-
countered hurricane in the Tropics and
foundered. The crew took to the boats.

MADRID, May 12.-The Republicans
and Carlists made persistent and
strong fight against the government bill
providing for q postponement of the
municipal elections until November
Both groups have followed course of
unremitting obstruction in the Cortes.
The Deputies sat without intermission
and tonight the members and ministers
were exhausted. This evenings discus
sion concerned a motion to give the gov
ernment free hand to settle the question
of municipal elections. The Republi-
cans and Carlists displayed an apparent
ly unbroken stubbornness. A min
isterial crisis seemed imminent until
a ounter motion of the Republicans
against leaving the government a free
hand in the matter of the municipal cleo
tions was rejected shortly after s. The
Republican deputies then retired for a
few minutes, to confer. Almost imme-
diately the original bill postponing the
elections was rushed through the house
by the ministers. The Republican mem
bers at once Withdrew from the building.
As they appeared in body in the
street, they were cheered repeatedly
by the thickening crowd. Before
the deputies reached the Republican
club, thousands were marching behind
| them, shouting "Long Live the Repub-
| lic." At the club, representative repub-
| licans gathered in conference to decide
upon the future line of action. In the
meantime, 10000 men and women had as
sembled 200 yards from the parliamenta-
ry building and were cheering for the re-
public. The police ordered them to dis
perse. They refused and the police
charged, but were repulsed.
Three companies of reinforce
ments were summoned and charged with
drawn sabers. The divided mob was
scattered in groups through the side
streets. At 9.15, when the Cortes ad-
| journed, most OF thei people had been
driven off. The government is taking
steps to prevent the publication of Re-
publican manifestos in this city, and or
ders have been sent to the authorities OF
all the towns in the provinces to prevent
the publication and circulation ofRepub-
lican appeals to the people.

ANGRY WORDS in THE COURT.

Counsel in the Behring Sea Case Continue
to SquabbIe.
PARIS, May 12.-In the Behring Sea
court of arbitration today, Sir Charles
Russell referred to the forged interpol-
lations in the American case as original
ly presented and argued. When the
forgeries were extracted from the case
nothing remained of the rights elaine d
to be derived from Russia.
American Agent John W. Foster, ex-
planned that the contents of the docu-
ments were unknown until the American
case was prepared. AS soon as the forg-
cry was discovered, the documents were
withdrawn.
Sir Charles Russell replied that while
the documents were withdrawn, the
formal case depending on the documents
was not materially changed
Hon. E. j. Phelps, American counsel,
retorted that the American case was re-
stated in the counter case.
The discussion was of the acrid char
acter that the proceedings have taken
since Sir Charles Russell began, and
were characterized by more heat and
temper than at any time since the open
ing of the tribunal.
Sir Charles Russell contended today
the American statutes were not intended
originally to treat Behring Sea as Mare
Clausum, but the American courts so
interpreted them at the instance of the
American government. In proof Of this
assertion be citsa the e0Ry 81 she bgies

CHICAGO, May 12.-Today at the regu-
lar monthly smeetingI the local direc-
tors of the Worlds Fair, 25 to decided
to open the gates of Jackson Park to the
public Sundays for half the price of adj
mittance to the fair during the week, 25
cents, The buildings will remain closed
as required under the laws passed by
Congress and as agreed when the so, ,500,-
900 was accepted from the Sind Con-
gress. The crowd will be allowed
to see everything outside the buildings
end not be allowed to enter
the latter. The action of the board will
go into effect week from Sunday I'm
der the resolution the Midway Plaisance
will be throw open, which will result in
rousing business for the various enter
tainments provided by the odds and ends
of humanity gathered there from all
over the world.
Edwin Walker, attorney for the board,
submitted an opinion ON the question.
On the strength of his opinion, the
board acted. No provision was made
for the return of any part of the 81, $780,
900 given the fair by Congress. There
| was, however, vague talk of refunding
the money some time. The votes, as
explanations made by the directors re-
vealed, by no means showed the real con-
victions of each member. Many voted
in the affirmative for the purpose of fore
ing test of the matter, and others so
voted with reservations and provisos.
Mr.. Walker decided that the exposition
was one thing and the exposition grounds
altogether distinct. On this the directo-
ry stands Unless the national commiss-
ion acts vigorously to prevent it, Jackson
Park will be open Sundays.

HAWAIIAN BUSINESS SUFFERS.
The Effect of the Uncertainty As To

SAN FRANCISCO, May 12.-Honolulu
advices dated May 4th state that the pro-
moters of the Hawaiian republic have
decided to defer action to see what the
United States intends to do. A conven-
ton of the Hawaiian Patriotic League
has framed a memorial to Commissioner
Blount expressing the native opposition
to annexation. The provisional govern
ment believes itself strong enough to
quell any internal disturbance and main
tain itself in authority. The minister of
finance states the means for carrying on
the delay in the settlement of the ques-
ton is having telling effect on business.

CHICAGO, May 12.-Arthur Hutton,
Worlds Fair manager for the English
pottery firm of Doulton 6 Co., was ar
rested yesterday charged with selling
goods which had been admitted duty
free as exhibits at the fair. The act of
disposing of imported goods admitted as
exhibits is equivalent to smuggling. Mr..
Hutton admitted the charge, and was ad-
mitted to bail in his own recognizance.
Special Treasury Agent Crowley, who
conducted the prosecution, said this is
the last case of this sort that the govern
ment will deal leniently with. In future
any exhibitor who is caught selling and
delivering goods will be prosecuted to
the utmost extent of the law.
The subcommittee of the local Worlds
Fair directory yesterday decided to rec
ommend two propositions to the full
board of directors regarding Sunday
openings. The first is that the exposi-
tion be opened to the public every Sun
day from this date until October 81. Sec
ond, that the exposition return to the
treasurer of the United States the so, 800
900 appropriated by Congress to its use,
the government to become responsible
for the payment of the awards provided
for by the national commission.

PROVIDENCE, May 12.-The Supreme
court today handed down a rescript over
ruling the demurrer set up by the Re-
publicans against the Democratic appli-
cation for writ of mandamus to COM
pei the town council of South Kingston
to order a new election for senators and
representatives. In the event of an cleo
tion being ordered, the political COM
plexion of the state government may de-

call to the Church of the

upon his new labors. Mr.. Kimmell is
one of the foremost pastor in the state

CHICAGO. May 12.-Another National
bia-and although the officers say they
are ali right, and that an effort to get aid
and resume in day or two is being
made, there are many things about the
suspension that give rise to suspicion
that it is a bad failure. Not great deal
of surprise was occasioned in financial
circles when it became known that the
bank had suspended, for it had been
looked upon with suspicion for some
time, and rumors had been in circula-
tion for two days that the Columbia
would follow the Chemical. So when
President Dwiggins posted notice that
the constant run for several days had
rendered it necessary to close for the
present for the protection of all concern
ed, most of the financiers merely nodded
knowingly. The bank had capital
stock of 81 100000, and deposits approx
imating 81, ,5oo,o 900.
The Columbiawas organized in Febru-
ary, 1891, with the United States Ma
tional as the foundation. The United
States began in 1887 with $50, 900 capital
as the private. institution of George
Wigs, the bucket-shop man. Later
Zimri Dwiggins. an Indiana county
banker, came into the bank and the
capital was Increased to 100000. 1t
never had deposits equal to the capital
stock, and is said to have been failure,
when the idea was conceived of reorgan-
izing under new name and with in
| creased capital. The services of Kan
sas City bank promoter were called in,
| and the Columbia National was the re-
suit. Dwiggins, while president of the
| United States, had organized chain of
| little country banks through Indiana
! dHu llllnois, anu Aau tAeiepy eSDilsheu
considerable prestige with interior
banks. Many Of them took stock of the
Columbia.
President Zimri Dwiggins ascribes the
failure of the bank to the suit which was
brought against it by the Sioux City
Loan and Trust Company, which failed
few days ago.
