The brothers. who had parted long be-
fore on Long Island were thus mysteri-
ously thrown together almost un-
known island in the South Pacific.
Rob told his brother that Amy Dawson
was still single and awaiting him; told him
that his father and mother and sisters were
still living, and their hearts yearning for
him, and so the modern Crusoe was pre-
vailed upon to bid goodby to his native
friends, who, finding that he deter
mined to part, accompanied him and his
brother to Apia, the chief town in the
Navigator Islands.
From here the American consul sent the
sailors home. They reached Sag Harbor by
way of San Francisco in safety, and no
word can express the delight of parents
and friends at meeting them once more.
They had repeated their fathers early
experience, and had had enough of the sea.
Today Robert Pearsall is one of the most
prosperous farmers on the eastern end of
Long Island. Ned is married to Amy Daw-
son, and by hard study he made up for
lost time during which he played Crusoe,
and is one of the most successful members
of the bar in his native town.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1l.-Interest In the
Hawaiian question centers In the dis
patches from Willis by the Corwin, which
were in the hands of the state department
to-day. Gresham, Lamont and Carlisle
visited the white house and had confer.
ence with Cleveland. Olney camo later
and remained closetcd with the president
and Gresham some time for the purpose,
il is said, OF giving advice on some points
involved in the news Willis had sent. All
that could be learned Of the dispatches
was that they contain about 1900 W ords,
Dole's letter in reply to Willis containing
about 5000 words. 1t is thought that the
matter viii be sent to congress. but their
perusal by the president occupied consid-
erable time, and il was found that the
preparation Of copies to be sent TO the
capitol would occupy much more. II is
thought tonight. however, that the matter
will come in tomorrow upon the assem.
bling of congress.
The house committee on foreign affairs
has agreed 10 report favorably on the res
olution of Hit, calling on the president
for the latest information on the Hawaiian
question. McCreary, chairman Of the
committee, says the report will be sub
mitted to the house tomorrow. The Hol-
man protectorate resolution will not be
introduced yet. Hits resolution was the
result of the now famous Auckland cable
to the associated press and was introduced
as soon as Hit satisfied himself that the
information was accurate and that the
administration had information of the
same character.

the presiding officer was obliged to sup
press by a threat to clear the galleries.
Continuing, Davis quoted from the letter
OF President Cleveland to President Dole
to show that Commissioner Blount was
more than personal representative. The
president violated the privileges OF the
senate by sending Commissioner Blount
with such authority to Hawaii. Davis
inquired by what authority the
president of the United States derived
power to arbitrate the question. Davis,
in concluding, said: This 10 . great
question, great in facts. great In import.
ance, great in its constitutional aspect.
The American people have cause 10 de-
eide il and they will in that sublime tri.

Turpie followed and spoke in the same
strain on the Hawaiian question. At the
close OF his speech Chandler presented n
majority report from the committee on
privileges and elections on the bill to re-
peal the federal election laws. At AGO,
on motion OF German, the senate went
