NEW ADVERTISEMENTS

JANUARY o, IoS4.
T>HERE's a deal
i Of satisfaction in
knowing to a
degree just how cold
these cold mornings are,
and a good Thermometer
keeps you in constant
touch with the latest ac-
curate information on the
subject. If there's a
Barometer attachment
you can figure your own
probabilities, Independent
of the weather bureau,
and that's something
worth while.
We're going to sell a
gross or two of good
weather markers-Ther-
mometers and Barometers
combined---at 2oc. each.
They're mounted on
nickeled backs in brass
cases, each mercury bulb
has been tested to 100
degrees faerenheitand the
barometer tube is war
ranted to be a reliable in
dicator of the atmos-
pheric pressure. The
price is a ridiculous one
for a good instrument.
They'll be ready this
morning.

Not one Of our January
bargains is more worthy
of careful consideration
than the mark.down sale
of Mems Lounging
Goats, Smoking Jackets
and Bath Robes. We've
chopped the prices to
a small proportion of
what they have been be-
cause we want to be rid
of the entire lot before
stock taking. It's a
chance to save dollars.

Our Legation-War Ships Ready for Ac-

Washington, January 5.-Revised and
complete copies of the Hawaiian CORES
pondence transmitted to Congress, with
the Presidents message December 1S,
were sent from the government printing
office to the House committee on foreign
affairs today. The volume contains a
searched for in vain in the voluminous
correspondence laid before both Houses
with the message. The confidential
despatch from Mr.. Willis to Secretary
Gresham, dated at honolulu, November
II, 1898, reads: "On the 7th inst, at IL,
I presented to the provisional govern.
ment Mr.. Blount's letter of recall and
the letter accrediting me as his successor
The time since then has been occupied
with the reception of executive, judicial
and diplomatic representatives of the
provisional and foreign governments.
have not had the opportunity of ex-
ecuting more fully your instru uctions,
nor was fuller action advisable while the
excitement was SO great. I expect next
Monday morning, November 13, to have
an interview with the Queen which, if
satisfactory, will be followed Immediate
ly by one with the provisional govern
ment. I have enclosed a telegram in
answer to your dispatch to be sent at
San Francisco, as follows: The report
can be sent to Congress on the 10th of
November, it being my understanding
that you desired to have all the facts
presented before there was any decisive
action here. The Alameda, the next
vessel leaving here after next Monday,
will not reach San Francisco until No
vember 20, during which interval it is
hoped some definite result may be
secured.n
The interview with the Queen first
had, evidently was not satisfactory
| for on the 10Th of November, Mr.. Willis
telegraphed Secretary Greshamt The
views of the first party aresso extreme as
| tosrequire instructions" This, doubtless,
was the despatch which called forth
from Secretary Gresham the reply, dated
| November "a: "The brevity and uncer
| tainty OF your kilograms are EN- barrass

| the recognition of the obligations of The

The Cutter Sent Dispatches Ashore
and Then Steamed Away.
A SAILOR TOLD OF TROUBLE AND
A WAR SHIP is READY TO SAIL.

Reporters Were Warned Away from the
Corwin but Sailor Shouted a Few
Yelled: "The Queen Had Not Been
Put Back on the Throne When We
left but She May Be There Now
All the Same.''
San Francisco, January 5.-The reven-
ue cutter Corwin arrived at the entrance
of the harbor from Honolulu about IL
this morning. She sent boat to the
shore with dispatches for Washington
and then proceeded to Mare Island. A
reporter in the boat met the cutter off
the fort and endeavo1ed to board her,
but was repulsed. His inquiries as to
how things were going at Honolulu were
unanswered. All hands evidently had
received kstrict instructions as to silence
on that point. The only hint of news
was at first given by one of the crew who
said over the side to a reporter, 'sThere
is big row on down in Honolulu" Af-
terward, in answer to a question, Capt.
Munger yelled: ''The Queen had not
been put back on the throne when we
left, but she may be there now, all the
same"
From the appearance of the Corwin, she
must have been pressed during the run.
The chances are that it is not more than
ten days since she left Honolulu. Her
starboard coal bunkers are apparently
empty, as she had a decided list to port.
At the navy yard the cutter will go out
of commission and be returned to the
custom house authorities. The Mohican
is at Mare Island, fully equipped and
provisioned. If smore assistance is re-
quired at Honolulu, she can be got ready
and despatched in an hour.
LATER-1he revenue cutter Corwin,
supposed to have started for Mare ISL
and was not sighted there at late hour.
1t is reported from Mare Island that the
Mohican is hurrledly fitting for sea. 1t
is supposed she is bound to Honolulu.
The whereabouts of the Corwin have be-
come mystery. A tug has started in
search of her.

Washington News.

The House of Representative re-
fuses by large majority to repeal the
ten per cent tax on State banks. thus
preventing the establishment of wild
cat state banking.
Those senators from the northern
tier of states who realize how vitality
the farming and lumber interests of
all northern states will be injured by
the proposed tariff are powerless to
stay the tide of malice which exists in
the average democratic senator. The
southern and south western senator
has especial hatred toward the in
dustries of this section.
The Senate has refused to retain the
sugar bounty and insists in placing a
tariff on it which is liable to increase
the price of sugar from one to two
cents pound. The present pension
expense averages about 50 to each
person in the United States and the
burden in the aggregate is considered
very large. The sugar tax will be
about two thirds as much.

In spite Of the confident reiteration
of parties on both sides that the min
er's strike must soon end, it still drags
its slow length along, and the condi
ton of some of the families of the min
ers is coming very near the starvation
point. The Western railroads have
complained of the scarcity of soft coal,
but this complaint has not, in all cases,
been considered genuine. Its partial
truthfulness has been shown, however
by the stoppage of freights on the
Ohio Central, and the serious condi-
ton on the Lake Shore lines. Indeed,
been led to try hard coal or oil as a
substitute fuel.

| The article which appeared in the
MONITOR Apr. 80, to which the above
letter refers, was intended to state
the truth in regard to the A. P. A. and
although Mr.. Gallagher denies the
statements that Catholics vote as a
unit on certain matters in certain
places, is substantially true. By a
| unit was meant practically as whole
| body. We have no doubt that they
voted solid against Knownothing
| candidates, that they are voting solid
ly against the A. P. A's. and that they
vote like other people, when they
know it, for their own interests. This
is too plain a fact in the history of
politics and other things to make a
denial needed. 1t is practically admit
ted in the above letter. AS to the matter
of office holding In cities as stated by
"Mr. Peters" and published in the
Tribune. Mr.. G. must have his quar-
rel with Mr.. Peters and the facts. Ev-
erybody knows that many of the
cities in this country are in the con-
which, if honestly elected according
to the laws of this country, has per-
feet right to his office. The statement
that 'tthe Catholic church has had
nothing to do with politics in this
country we let stand out naked as
it is made. We suppose Catholics
are human, and if, with several mil
lion voters in this country and ma
jority of voters in our great cities
many of them differed by Catholics,
they have nothing to do with politics
they are unlike and better than other
people.
If the ga. P. A." is as bad as the |
writer of the above letter thinks it is,
and if it deserves all the epithets he
heaps upon it, it is really a harmless
thing, and himself and others |
ought to have no alarm about it.
Parties will thrive only when the
commend themselves to the heart
and the head of the people. IF this
party, as secret organization, is
bent on wrong purposes it will not
thrive; on the other hand if the Cath
Ollie church, the Methodist church, or
any other church organization in this
country,a as body or an organization,
to manipulate and control
political affairs, such churches will
do harm and will deserve .opposi-
ton. This is country of freedom
free churches, free schools, free bal
lot, free thought, and whatever seeks
TO trammel either Of these must
