Authorized Version Of Carlisle's DOing'
with Sugar Schedule.

! Authorized Version OF Csrlisle's DOinEs
! W'1ti, Sugar Schedule.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-Sccrctary Car
isles part in the preparation OF the
sugar schedule Of the bill is officially
stated as follows:
| Senator Jones called upon and in
formed him that the subcommittee ha6!
agreed upon the sugar schedule and
requested that he put it in proper form.
This the secretary did. In the after
noon at Mr.. Jones request Secretary
Carlisle visited the capital and WAS in
formed that only changes were under
consideration. and being requested to
do so, made some interlincations i'll the
amendment $3.50
The committee then decided that n
provision should be incorporated pro-
viding that the Hawaiian reciprocity
treaty should not be affected by the
schedule. The book containing the
treaties was obtained by Secretary
Carlisle from the room of the foreign
colxmittee, and he wrote the proviSo
which preserves the Hawaiian treaty.
| All this is in the handwriting of Score
tary Carlisle.
This event transpired on Saturday,
Mays. That night it occurred to the
secretary that If the bounty should be
repealed July !. 1894, and duty should
not be imposed until six months there

he had gone to the capitol the secre-
tary drove there and found Senators
Jones, Mcpherson and Vest and Repre-
sentative breckenridge, of the ways

| ing over the bill
That visit on Sunday, May 6. was the
only visit made by Mr.. Carlisle to the
committee without an invitation. and
the change alluded to is the only origi-
nal suggestion he made in connection
with the formulation of the bill.
| With reference to the giving of let
ter to Mr.. lIavemcycr, introducing that
! gentleman to Senator Mills, it appears
that when he presented himself at the
treasury department he was informed
that he should call upon those who
were framing the bill.
Mr.. llavemcycr had slight acquaint-
ance with Mr.. Mills. and in order to
save time and insure him conference
with the senator. Secretary Carlisle. at
the request of Mr.. lIavemcyer, gave
him note Of introduction.
| The story that Secretary Carlisle
called on the committee on his own
motion and insisted TINT Il certain
schedule for sugar should be adopted,
for the reason that the sugar trust had
made liberal contributions to the dem
ocratic fund, is denied cmphatically by
the secretary.

Competing, Belongs to Uncle Sam.
BALTIMORE. June 4.-The discovery
has been made here that the Johnson
island, of which England and Hawaii
want possession. and to secure which
vessels from each Of these governments
are now racing across the Pacific, be-
longs to the United States. Mr.. Victor
l.. Smith. prominent baltimore law
yer, makes the claim, and offers data
to prove his assertion.
lie says the island was discovered in
1857 by man named Parker, who
found guano deposit upon it, and who
subsequently, sold his interest to the
United States Guano Co., which filed
its claim with the department at Wash
ington. Soon after this the Hawaiian
government claimed ownership OF the
island and sent force to take posses
sion. This government, however, de-
clined TO recognize the Hawaiian claim
and held that it was invalid.
Under an act of 1856 the president de-
clared the island part OF the United
States and recognized the claims of
the phosphate company, and according
to a decision of the supreme court this
proclamation makes the island a part
of the United States.

the passage of coal laden trains through
this city. arrived here at o'clock Sum
day morning. The train was side
tracked one mile east of the city limits
and the $50 citizen soldiers left it with
Calling gun, bayonets fixed and colors
flying. They marched down the
railroad track, where oil the trouble
has been. but ON entering the city
found no army of rioters to OPP
pose their march or give them
nny work to do. Scattered on
and around the track, however, were
counted twenty-six strikers, none Of
whom showed any disposition to make
trouble. Sheriff Lcmin9, who, with
Adjt. Robbins, is in command of the
militia, read to the handful of strikers
the restraining order issued at WASH
ington last Thursday by Judge Heffron.
Friends of the strikers in Indianapolis
had fOrcwarned Thorn of the approach
of the militia, which accounted for the
disappearance of the two hundred or
three hundred rioters
The sheriff set out to find four men,
who had been leaders of the distur-
bnnce. and for whom he had warrants.
After much difficulty, he caught w. r.
Summers, n justice Of the peace for the
local township; Dick Gadc, who had
been leading the strikers in their law

the railroads, and John Flynn, Il strik-
err. The warrants charge them with
riotous conspiracy and contempt OF
Judge Heffrons mandate.
Immediately after the arrival of tho
troops, the officials of the Baltimore &c
Ohio Southwestern railroad began to
move the coal ears which had been
sidetraclzed by the strikers. The pres
ence of the armed force awcd the strik-
crs. nearly all of whom remained in
their homes, but the women and chill
dren belonging to the strikers families
gathered on and alongside the track,
hooting at the railroad men. militia

the trains was in progress. The CITY is
now clear of coal cars, and the militia
are spending the night in camp.

Sheriff Mills and Judge Briggs. of

held a long consultation. The Sullivan
sheriff informed the governor that the
miners OF Shelburn had made light OF

he was unable to move the blocked
coal trains, which were guarded by
miners.
Gov. Matthews was considerably net
tied over the manner in which his proc

order out the militia.
