coRRALlNGl ANARCHISTS.
The French Police still Busy Bringing in
Suspects.

Paris. February %. The police here say
they have proof that five anarchists
arrested in a batch yesterday morning
are responsible for the explosion at the
police station in the Rue des Bons
Enfants in Novem ber, 1892. One of the
prisoners, Adrienne Chally, has long
been associated with the anarchists, and
the police say she received bomb made
by Emile Henry. This bomb she placed
on the staircase of the building where
the Carmaux Mining company had its
Offices. The police have arrested an
anarchist named Rivols, presumed to be
one of the leaders of the bomb throwers
now appearing in Paris. There is reason
to believe that he intended to repeat the
outrage of Valiant as Deputy Sauzet
alleges that Rivols applied to him for
tickets of, admission tot the Chamber of
Deputies Mondeay and Tuesday. M.
Sauzet regarded the man with suspicion
and refused to comply with the request.
A supposed bomb was found today in
the Galerie MonJpensier of the Palais
Royal, and sent to the municipal labora-
tory to be examined.

THE CAsEAoAlNsT THE LORDS.
Charges Enumerated By One of the Glad
stonian Newspapers of London.

London, February 22.-The Daily
News, Gladstonian, enumerates in a
leader this morning thirteen charges
against the House of Lords. All these
concern the mutilation or rejection of re-
form proposals during the present parlia-
mentary session. "The rapid growth of
popular agitation against the House of
Lords" it comments, is evidenced by
daily meetings. We are now face to
face with one of the very gravest
problems of our constitutional history.
This odious institution of hereditary
leeislotors cannot possibly continue to
have placed in free government" The
News says Lord Salisbury will advise
the Lords nor to insist upon any critical
amendments the parish councils bill,
except those relating to the affairs of the
various charities. Many Liberals favor
an immediate dissolution of Parliament
in case the Lords adhere to.their amend
ments for the parish councils bill. The
Daily News deprecates such a curse as
virtually giving the victory to the peers.
This morning it says: Mr.. Gladstone,
LET us 90 on. Lead US if you can, but
ANYHOW let us advance"

INJURED INNOCENT.
McKane's Friends Say He Is the Victim of
the Newspapers.

Brooklyn, February PA special
from Albany to ''The Citlzen'' says that
Justice Newton of Gravesend, the friend
and lieutenant of John Y. McKane, is in
Albany for the purpose of securing the
latter's admission to bail pending an ap-
peal from the sentence of Judge Bart
lett. The despatch concludes; sit is
understood that should Judge Cullen
deny the application for a certificate of
reasonable doubt. Judge Fursman of
Troy stands prepared to grant such GER
tificate. The application to Judge Furs-
make it. will be made on the ground that
the Jury which convicted McKane was
unduly influenced by public clamor and
articles in the newspapers hostile to the

MAKING A REPUBLIC.
The Task to Which Mr.. Dole Will
Now Devote His Energies.
ROYALISTS SHEER BECAUSE OF
THE RESTRICTED SUFFRAGE.

Late News From Hawaii-President Dole
Is No Longer Also Minister of Foreign
Affairs Chinese Residents Antagon-
izing the American League-rhey Are
Excited Over Law Forbidding Chi
nese Laborers to Engage in Trade.
Honolulu, February 81, via San Fran
cisco, February 22.-Since the last. mail
there has been no change in the situa-
tion here as affects international affairs.
The bill to separate the Offices of presi-
dent and minister of foreign affairs has
become law. The presi dents salary is
$4,000. f. W. Hatch is minister of
foreign affairs and d. B. Smith has been
elected to fill the vacancy in the council.
Mr.. Smith was named by mass meeting
for the place.. When relieved of the
burden of foreign affairs, President Dole
will apply himself especially to the work
of maturing the draft of the Constitu-
tion, which has already received much
careful attention. Much outside counsel
will be taken before the final action. 1t
will be eventually submitted to some form
of constitutional invention as. unless
advices from Washington shall hold out
amore favorable prospect than has appear
ed of late for annexation or some other
satisfactory form of political union With
the United States. The provisional gov
eminent will probably proceed to organ
ize a constitutional and representative
government, the royalists denounce the
restricted suffrage which will probably
be adopted at least in the election of the
upper house. They claim there can be
no satisfactory government which does
not give every native Hawaiian full
voting power. The present appearances
are that the, revolutiOnists will maintain
themselves in power at whatever sacri-
fice of ideal democratic politics. 1t is
admitted by them that their task of or
gsnizing the government upon rerr1a-
nent representative basis is a rpar' diifSl-
cult and delicate one ON aceiarr. OK the
lsrge majority OF Pclyhesi@z; and
Asiatic inhs bitants incapacitated fGr, par
ticipating in represer tative government.
That it be successfully done they express
entire confidence, based upon the exist
ence of large body of intelligent and
capable whites leaveneG By American in
stitutions. Theophilus Davies and other
royalists maintain that the task is im-
possible. On the evening OF the 18th, an
immense mass meeting of Chinese was
held for the.purposessof protesting against
the measure lately introduced into the
council to prevent Chinese agricultural
lahorers from engaging in mechanical or
mercantile occupations. Resolutions
were passed claiming "no lesser degree
of consideration and justice than resi-
dents of other nationalities. This
action is in direct opposition to that ef
the American league. The measure is
expected to prevent the evils resulting
from the influx of Chinese contract
laborers The council decided at a recent
meeting that an election should be held
of a mum ber of delegates TO sit with the
council as constitUt tional convention
and prepare a cor stitution for a perma
nent form of representative government

BLAND's CHANGE OF BASE.
Looking to Western Republicans for Heir
His Bill Liable to Defeat.


Washington, February 90 There were
indications today that Mr.. Bland had
carried the seigniorage bill about as far
as it was posi- BILE to do under existing
conditions. A m ember of the committee
on rules is authority for the statement
that notwithstanding the declaration OF
the caucus Monday, the sentiment is
growing on the Democratic side of the
House in favor of abandoning the pend
ing measure. He said that when Mr..
Bland makes his motion tomorrow to go
into committee of the whole to consider
the bill he will be antagonized by a
motion to take up one of the approprla-
tion bills. 1t is intimated that when
this is done, the latter motion will be
adopted and the seigniorage bill shelved.
The change today in Mr.. Bland's motion
for terminating the general debate Oh
the seigniorage bill, extending the time
for discussion until three Saturday after
noon, occasioned considerable surprise.

w eSC anu the sunny SOuUns
New London, February 22.-President
Charles b. Ware returned from Boston to-
day, where he met President T. W. Hyde
of theBath Iron Works. President Ware. on
his return was accompanied by Treasurer
E. W. Hyde ana Superintendent J. r.
Andrews, who were introduced to the
Mayor and prominent citizens in the
Crocker house parlors. President Ware
stated that the outlook for the removal
of the entire plant to this place is re-
garded as most favorable. The raising of
money by private subscriptions here will
not have to be resorted to, as supposed.
Gen. Hyde said the company would look
after that. 1t was only the matter OF
location that would tempt them to re-
move from Bath. Plans and estimates
of various sites along the water front
will be shown the visitors tomorrow.
Gen. Hyde was detained in Boston by a
previous engagement, but expected to
reach here in time for the inspection to-
morrow.
Boston. February 22.-Gen. 7. W. Hyde,
president of the Bath Iron Works, his
son, f. W. Hyde, treasurer, and j. 4.
Andrews, superintendent OF she COM
pany, were in consultation at Young's
today, with Charles B. Ware, president
of the New London Board of Trade in
regard to the proposition to locate the
works in New London. fter the con-
ference, Gen. Hyde said: "We shall not
decide upon anything today. We are re-
ceiving very liberal offers from many
cities. some of the more important being
Baltimore, Chicago, Chester, Pa, Port
land. Me-, Mystic, Stoningtop, New
London and Bridgeport, Conn, Asbury,
NC, Sheffield, Ala, East St. Louis.
where the owners wish to sell the City
Point plant.
He further said there were now at his
docks several vessels that must be COM
pleted before the works are moved.
They might not make any change of
location before next fall. 1t was possible
too that it might appear to their advan-
tage to remain in Bath.
