Senator Gray Defends the Adminfstra-
tioD's Hawaiian Policy.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The Hawaiian
controversy occupied the principal time
OF the senate today, Gray opening his
argument in defense of President Cleve-
land. Early in the session an interest
ing incident occurred in the presenta-
ton by Cullom Of a memorial signed by
10000 wool growers Of the west, protest.
ing against the wool schedule in the new
tariff bill. The speech OF Gray on the
Hawaiian matter was devoted princi-
pally to an attempt to prove the COM
plicty of Minister Stevens with the
reyolutionists, the senator citing the
evidence OF members of the provisional
government to show that they were in
daily consultation with the minister
previous TO the revolution and expected
the protection of American troops in
the plan to overthrow the queens gov
ernment. Gray did not conclude his
speech and will resume argument tomor-
row.
Pettigrew presented resolution di-

report to the senate the amount oil

total WELD the past year and the amount
now in the country. Adopted.
Cockrell presented memorial OF the
St. Louis merchants exchange. declsr-
ing the present stagnation of the coun.
try was due to the uncertainty OF con-
oressionsl action on the tariff question,
and praying tnat the matter may be
settled as speedily SO possible.
A suhstitute for the Wilson tariff bill
was presented by Gallinger. 1t declares,
in view of the widespread industrial de-
preston existing, bringing disaster to
manufacturing interests and loss OF en-
ployment and suffering to the wage
earning classes, it is unwise to make any
changes in the tariff law during the
present administration.
Petitions against free iron ore and free
lumber were presented by Senator
Faulkner.
GRAY of Delaware then addressed the
senate on the Hawaiian question. He
said: ''The evidence all goes to show

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12.-In the trial
of DR.. West today, for the murder of
Addie Gilmour, DIR. r. d. johnson was
the last witness called. Attorney Will
son wanted the room cleared, as the
doctor wanted to impsrt professional
secret and did not care to let the public
know that he was concerned in case
OF this kind. Mr.. Barnes objected. In
reply Attorney Ferral ssid the defense
expected to prove By witness that Miss
Gilmour went to DR.. johnson 10 days
before going to Dr.. West; that he found
that she was suffering from an opera
tion and that he refused to treat her.
Judge Wallace interrupted and said he
could not allow the witness to testify,
on the ground that he would have to
disclose professional secret. The de-
tense objected and noted the exception.

OF Auditor Goodykountz to issue war

designating from what fund the money
shall be taken. The auditor bases his
refusal on the ground that there is no
money in the treasury not previously

THE Bland silver bill, which passed the house of representatives last week, is in itself of little consequence, even fit were not sure to fail either in the senate or in the approval of the president, save as it is a backward step. It provides to coin up the silver on hand, some $55, ,0OO, ,000worth, and to issue silver certificates for the coin as it is added to that already coined and lying unused in the treasury vaults. It will take about two years to coin this. The measure was voted for by 19 republi- can congressman, and opposed by 49 dem- erats.

SENATOR WHITE of Louisiana, recently appointed to be a justice of the U. s. su- preme court, refused to give up his seat in the senate until assured that the Will son bill would be amended by making it protective of the sugar interests. The matter is now fixed to his satisfaction. Congressman Blanchard from Louisiana is to be appointed to succeed Judge White in the senate. Blanchard voted for the Wilson bill in the house, but agrees to oppose it in the senate unless amended to the satisfaction of the sugar growers. Thus does high-toned southern patriotism of the tariff reform order adjust itself to the situation of protection of Louisiana, but not of New England.
