Minister Willis Writes a Letter to the
State Department..

The President sent a message to Congress
today, transmitting copies of the latest Ha-
waiian correspondence. The principal letter
is from Minister Willis to Secretary Ores

1894. 1t Is as follows:

copy was, on the same day, transmitted by
NE to MIR. F. NJ. Hatch. minister of foreign
affairs. for the Information Of his govern
ment. On the 21st instant I received a pro-
test, signed "Liliuokalani." reciting from
her standpoint the acts and facts prior and
subsequent to the overthrow Of her govern
ment, protesting against all such acts and
" earnestly requesting" that the United
States will not extend its recognition to
any such government thus formed"
Not feeling at liberty to answer or trans
init this communication, had an interview
with Mr. Samuel Parker, the last minister
or foreign affairs under the monarchy to
of our government and my inability to for
ward any such communication, handed.

TRIAL OF DEBS.
The Argument Today Of District At
tOrney MiIchrist.

CHICAGO, July 24-During the proceed
irgs in the trial of President Debs and his
associates for contempt today District At
torney Mlchrist called the attention Of the
court to the act of $780, known as the anti
trust law He read some of its provisions,
stating that If two or more persons con-
spired to obstruct in terstate commerce they
should be deemed guilty of an offense
against the government and should be pro-
ceeded against in the United States court in
equity The district attorney said that
under the law the argument of the defense
that the bill under which the injunction was
issued was void falls to the ground The
bill was filed under the act of 1890. There
is no doubt, Mr. Michrist said, that the gov
eminent has such n pecuniary interest in
interstate commerce that 1t has a right to
file such a bill. The government maintains
itself in part by the revenue derived from
the postal service.

Probable Safety of the WelIman Party

CHICAGO, July 24.-The following reply
to an inquiry has been received Chicago,
July 24.-To the General Marager of the
Associated Press: The fact that there was
much floating ice this year led Mr. Well
man to believe before he left Norway that
his vessel. the Ragnvold Jarl, could get
further north than any ship had ever reach
ed before. This information was corrob-
Grated by great many navigators whom
he saw just before he left. Reports that
come about the loss of the expedition arise
from the fact that fishing and other vessels
have not seen the Ragnvold JarI, which
they would have done in ordinary seasons.
Private cablegrams to the Herald from
Tromso say that even If the vessel is lost
there is no reason for anxiety for the ex-
petition and the crew, which is undoubtel-
ly upon the ice somewhere making its way
toward the pole When Mr.. Wellman left
Tromso 1t was with the understanding
that the vessel should come back and bring
report of the expedition up to the time that
he could send messengers back to ii from
Sc me distance in the interior, and undoubt-
edly the vessel is waiting at some point
fol. such communications. He arranged
that the vessel should return sometime be-
tween July Is and August 1, but possibly
the vessel might be still later. 1t was 20
return to Norway to coal up and to pre-
pare for the return trip to bring Mr.. Well
n an back, which would require it to leave
about August 10; consequently there is no
occasion for alarm until after that date

r EPORTEO AT LAST
Favorable Action on the Public Printing
Reorganization Bill
Senator German Submits n Measure
Providing for Sweeping Reforms
I'm Departments.

Senator German today presented from the
committee on printing A report upon the
old public printing reorganization bill, (which
has been before Congress for upwards of
four years, On the 9Th OF February, 1871
joint resolution was signed creating a joint
commission FOR the purpose of inyestigat-
ing the evils of the public document system
and the waste of distribution, and to de-
wise remedy. The story of this effort is
best told in the language of Senator Cor
mans report, submitted today:
THE joint committee, thus appointed
fully Investigated the matter, and at the
first session of the Fifty-second Congress
made a full and elaborate report, accom-
panied by bill. which they had formu-

ence. upon the disagreement of the Senate

The bill. as originally drawn, consisted
largely or a collection and systematic re-
ef actment of the numerous provisions of
pfe-existing law regulating the public print

Of public documents
Duties of the Superintendent.
"One of the chief features was ,ba an
pointment of superintendent of docu-
n.ents, specially charged with the syste-
matte distribution of documents to desiy-
mated repositories and the public. This
distribution has heretofore been performed
by a bureau Of the Interior Department
Recognizing the important part that the
proposed superintendent of documents will
play in the general economics of the bill
this committee has reinsta ted provisions for
his appointment He Is to be made a sub

Important Saving Indicated.
There is no doubt that there will be a
large saving of expense to the government
as one of the results OF the passage of this
bill. The late foreman of binding at the
government printing Office, Mr.. White. in
his testimony before the joint COMMITTEES
that there viii be a saving in the i'm
proved method of biz ding and distributing
the reserve of the usual number alone OF
81, 800 a year upon the single item of bind
ing. By an estimate Made up for the CON-
mittee on printing of the last Congress by
Mr.. Palmer. the then public printer, the
aggregate expense to be saved to the sew
eral departments of the government by this
bill was placed at between sl15,0O0 and
s2OoOoO a year"
The bill reported today is H. r.. 26aO,
which reached the Senate, after passage by
The House, on the 18th of last October.

DISBARRED FROM PRACTICE.
Attorney Brashcars Explains Why
Charges Were Brought Against Him.

Attorney Brnshcnrs Explains Why
Charges Were Brought Against Him.
Attorney Shipley Brashears was disbarred
yesterday from practice before the patent
office on the charge Of having misappro-
priated fee given him by client with
which to file an application for patent. Mr..
Brashears will seek to have the disbar-
ment Cancelled on the ground that he did
not misappropriate the fee. and that the
most serious charge which can be brought
against him is that of delay in fling the
application. MIR. Brashears in speaking
with a Star man this afternoon. said:
"Mr. Kindig Of Baltimore paid me for
preparing an application for patent early
in the year, probably January. l had some
trouble with Mr.. kindly and his assignees.
but the final result was that the applica-
ton was filed in the patent Office. probably
about six weeks after the fee had been re-
ceived. Mr.. Kindig, believing himself
aggrieved, preferred charges against me be-
fore the patent office some time after the
application had been filed Consequently no
charge of Misrepresentation OF money can
be made against me-"
