CONGRESSMAN ALL AT SEA.

House Committee Foreign Affairs
to Act on the Hawaiian Question.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 7.-Promi-
nent members of the House committee
on foreign affairs evidently expect that
Congress will be called upon soon to
take up and decide the Hawaiian ques-
ton. Chairman McCreary has had an
extended interview with the President,
and it is supposed that matters
relating to Hawaii were under
discussion. Mr. McCrearv would
say nothing about the conteren ce, but
from suggestions he made it is evident
that he expected the House would deal
with the matter. A member of the
committee said that the President
would not think of using force while
Congress was IN session as that would be
an act Of war. There has been a
theory advanced that after hearing
again from Minister Willis and learning
positively that the Queen cannot be re-
stored except by the use of the United
States troops, the President will present
TO Congress the case Of the Queen as
wrOnged monarch whose government
had been overthrow by this govern
ment and assert that it is the duty of
the United States to restore the
former condition, even by using
force. This is one idea that has
been advanced by friends Of the admin
istratiOn. There will be great opposi-
ton in the House committee on for
eign affairs to the resolution of Repre-
sentative Hit, of Illinois, on the ground
that it would not be right, in view of
further promised communication from
the executive on the subject, for
the House to give expression to
the sentiments contained IN the
Hit resolution. Mr.. Hit will make
every effort to secure a favorable re-
port from the committee on his resolu-
ton, but as it will take at least three
Democrats to bring about such a result
it is doubtful if he will be successful.
1t Is not certain yet what course the
executive will take in response to the
resolution of the Senate. The informa-
ton will be given, but whether. in the
form of a formal response to the Senate
resolution or IN special message from
the President which takes no note of
the resolution has not yet been deter
mined. The information is prepared
and can be sent in at any time. 1t was
apparently put in a shape to accom-
pany the Presidents forthcoming spe-
cial message before the resolution was
passed in the Senate yesterday. There
is excellent authority for saying that
Minister Willis present orders are
to employ no force of arms 1t is
probable that the instructions by the
CorWin are for him to proceed in his eff
lofts to persuade the provisional govern
ment to allow Liliuokalani to be re-
stored. 1t IS intimated from RESPONSE
bic source that the ex-Queen declines
to go back on the throne unless by the
consent Of the provisional government
leaders or with the guarantee Of her
protection by the United States govern
ment,

LEHIGH STRIKERS WIN.
Their Demands Granted by the Company
and the Strike Dec AIRED Off.

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Dec. 6.-The great
strike on the Lehigh Valley Railroad
was declared off at o'clock this morn
ing. This action was the result OF a
conference between a joint committee
composed of members of the Boards Of
Arbitration of New York and New Jer-
sey on the one hand and President
Wilbur, of the Lehigh Valley road,
on the other. The conference which
lasted three days was participated in by
the chiefs Of local and national labor
organizations which took part in the
strike. The terms of the agreement
are embodied in the following letter to
President Wilbur, to which he agreed.
1t is from the two state boards:
The State Boards of Arbitration of New
York and New Jersey desire to know
whether if the existing strike is declared OFT
the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company will
agree to take back as many of their old en-
ployes as they can find places for
without prejudice on account OF the
fact that they struck or that
they are members of any labor
organization; that in re-employing the men
formerly in its service the available time
shall be SO divided among the men EN-
plOyed that they may feel they are again Ill
he employ of the company ard selt-sup-
'Ortlng; that IN making prOmOu mere
liter the company will make no distinction
as between the new men now III its en-
ploy and those employed on account of
seniority in service or otherwise; that
when in the employ of the road committees
from the various classes of employees from
the branches of the service in which the
aggrieved party is employed shall be re-
ceived and their grievances considered and
justly treated; and that in employing men in
the future the company will give preference
to former employees when the strike is de-
clared off. We further think that to pre-
vent misapprehensions the Lehigh Valley
Railroad Company should confirm the
rules posted by Mr.. Voorhees, on August
last, as first yicepresident of the Philadel-
phia d Reading Railroad. We believe that
the suggestions are reasonable and that it
they are accepted by your company the
present strike will be at once terminated.

MAKES A SENSATIONAL CLAIM,

Ground on Which Pretty Typewriter
Sues millionaire George Gould.
New YORK, Dec. Mrs. leila Nico-
Iaus. handsome blonde % years old,
has brought a sensational suit against
George J. Gould. 1t is claimed that
during August Of 1892 she was the
stenographer at a meeting of rail
road men, Gould being among
them. That young gentleman is
said to have been greatly i'm
pressed with the lady. The story that
is told upon the streets further runs that
Gould persuaded her to come to New
York, promising her a more pleasant
and profitable occupation than was hers
in Chicago. She came to New York and
later came into possession Of a check
calling for $40, 900 to be paid from the
Gould wealth. That check was never
paid. That is why the present suit has
been brought. Mr.. Gould denies the
story in its entirety. Gould's wife is

WILLIS is WAITING.
No Action Until He Hears from Wash
ingt0n.

HONOLULU, Nov. %, via San Francisco,
Cal, Dec. 9.-From source almost in
touch with the American legation it is
learned that the contingency which has
caused delay in Hawaiian affairs until
Washington is heard from is the fact
that the provisional government and
resident Americans would openly resist
either compromise or restoration. In
conversation with the Associated
Press reporter yesterday Minister Willis
said he was confident that legislation ia
vorable to the Hawaiian Islands would
shortly take place in the United States.
Minister Willis made statement, vir-
tually as already published, that moth
ing definite would be done here until he
had received reply to dispatches sent
to Washington by the Alameda. This
statement was published in the Star.

Zimmerman is quoted as saying that

Manager Long, of the Toledo Club,
has signed Charles B. Miller to play In
the field next season. Last year Miller
played with the Nashville, Tenn, Club,
and also captained the team. Miller is
said to be a good infeld player and if
necessary can take his turn in the box.
1t is probable that Arthur Irwin will
manage the Philadelphia club next sea
son. In case he does he will also act as
captain and coacher, although he will
not play ball. John |. Rogers believes
that the manager should appear on the
the grounds in uniform and direct the
movements of the players.
There seems to be little probability of
Schaefer and Ives meeting IN another
match contest at billiards until next
May, and then it will be at cushion

ney Ives will take a short rest and then

The eight-round contest at Oakland,

is to provide for class of professional

MAKES A GREAT SAVING.
Successful Trial of New Process of
Rolling Iron at Duluth.


DULUTH, Mimi, Dec. S.-The Ironton
Structural Steel Company of this city
has just made test of it's new style
of structural beam rolling machinery
and has accomplished res lt that is
entirely novel in the history of steel
manufacture. A 24-inch steel beam 80
feet long was rolled by d single set
Of rolls in one operation and with
out removing the billet from the
original rolls. The beam was
rolled from steel billet 81 inches long
and 30 inches wide and inches thick
in fifteen passes through the rolls. It
is Il standard section so pounds to the
foot. 4 few weeks ago 75-inch
beam was successfully rolled by the
same process, which is the invention of
James E. York, general manager
Of the works. 1t is claimed
that the cost of turning steel
ingots into finished beams is reduced
10 per cent. by this process. There is
only one other firm in the United States
capable of rolling a 24-inch steel beam
and there the work is done by the or
binary process.

among the miners in the upper PENN
sula of Michigan, concluded their labor
here to-day and will report that in Co
gebic, Iron and Dickinson counties the
distress is even greater than hith-
erto represented. The committee
spent week in those counties
and personally investigated nearly
every case. They estimate that about
$780, will be necessary to sustain
the destitute families in decent
comfort until spring. Food and
clothing are a great necessity, as
fuel is abundant. The committee

for the idle men if only at wages suffi-
cient to support their bare existence.
They will appeal to Gov. Rich and all
charitably inclined people for liberal
contributions. While much distress
exists in Marquette County the county
poor commissioners claim their ability
to care for their poor without outside
aid.
LANSING, Mich, Dec. 7. = Gov.
Rich stated to-day that it was not
improbable that special session of

tide them over until May L. He is pre-
pairing to 60 and make personal investi-
gstlon, and will decide about special
