SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. "a Commits
sioners Samuel Parker, H. A. Wide
man, j. A. Cummings and w. I. Sew
ard of Hawaii, who went to Washing
ton over month ago to see President
Cleveland ON behalf of the deposed
queen, Liliuokalani, and who returned
here Tuesday, sailed for Hawaii Thurs
day. In an interview Commissioner
Parker said that Washington dis
patches to contrary they saw all great
men in Washington, including Presi-
dent Cleveland, and that their inter-
view was satisfactory.
1--WE went to Washington" he said,
ito get an answer from the government
as to what it intended to do. and we got
it. 1t was to the effect that the govern
ment would not at present interfere,
which was in substance the answer
furnished by the senate some time ago
Still we got much encouragement of a
substantial nature, which is to be held
in private until we return to Hawaii
and render our report to the people who
sent us. can say this much that it is
satisfactory. l stayed at the same hotel
with Secretary Gresham and saw and
talked with him nearly every day."

Will BESIGN THE BILE
Generally Believed that the
President VIII Not.
CAN BECOME A LAW WITHOUT 1T.

Members Of Congress Urging Mr.. CIeve-
land to Sign IL, In Order to Relieve
Their Embarrassment on the stump This
!'ali, but the President Apparently Fails
to See 1t in That Light.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-The presi-
dent remains firm in his purpose to let
the tariff bill become law without his
signature. This, as was stated by the
Associated Press at the time was his in
tention when he left Washington for
Gray Gables, and there is excellent au-
thority for the statement that Mr..
Cleveland since his return has indicated
that he is of the same opinion as before
he left here. A great deal of pressure
has been and is still exerting to induce
Mr.. Cleveland to forego his present pur-
pose and to sign the bill, either with or
without some message, expressing his
views, but the president gave no encour-
agement to those who have pressed
views of this nature on his attention,
and has indicated that he will allow the
bill to become law by expiration of
the 10 days clause of the constitution.
The persons most urgent in suggest
ing to the president that he sign the
bill, are members of congress who have
represented very strongly to the presi-
dent that signature of the bill will
help them considerably in their defense
of it i'll the coming campaign, and that
should it not have the measure of presi-
Dental approval indicated by Mr.. Cleve-
lands signature, their position ON the
stump will be embarrassed to some ex-
tent at least.
Speaker Crisp and number of other
congressman have presented this view
of the matter, and the speaker saw Mr..
Cleveland Thursday on the subject.
So far as can be learned the presidents
attitude has been one of patient listen
ing to and consideration of the argu-
ments presented, but he has refrained
carefully from making any promises or
giving encouragement to congressman
who wish the bill signed.
A veto Of the bill, however, is not
even suggested. 1t can not become a
law without the presidential autograph
until next Monday, and this being the
case the adjournment of congress will
hardly take place before next Tuesday.
The fact chat it is Mr.. Cleveland
purpose to permit the bill to become a
law without his signature is also a
strong indication of the improbability of
any message on the tariff from the
president.
Besides Speaker Crisp, who spent
some time with the president in a dis
cussion of the tariff situation, Repre-
sentative Mcmillan of Tennessee of the
ways and means committee, and one Of
the house conferrees also talked with
Mr.. Cleveland. Speaker Crisp told
members of the house, who were
anxious to get away, that he thought
the session would last until next Tues
Mr.. Mcmillan did not discuss the tariff
bill with the president.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 24.-Ida B. Wells,
the young negro woman who has just

sensation in her agitation against lynch

kept quiet until Wednesday in rest. A
meeting was held in the afternoon at

rotary, Mrs. Landonia NJ. Williams.

director of the Indiana prison south,

the inner air tube of his wheel exploded.
After having adjusted new one Parks

compressed air, and this, too, exploded.
Fragments of the tire struck Parks in

END OF THE WORLD.
A Prophet of Evil Says Some Alarming
Things.

KANSAS CITY, Aug. PA small
pamphlet entitled, "What Do These
Things Mean?" is being freely dis
tributed among the homes, particularly
of workingmen about town. 1t is inter-
esting, inasmuch as it attempts to prove
that the end of the world is at hand
and the wonderful things told in the
Book of Revelations are about to come
to pass. The recent railroad strike is
declared to be the last sign of prophecy.
This last sign, it declares, is distress
with perplexity. Nations have been
perplexed before, and have likewise
been distressed, but this is the first
time, it is asserted, that both calamities
have come at once. The pamphlet is
published by the International Relig-
ious Liberty association. At it's office
Wednesday no one was able to fix the
exact day for the end of the world, but
it was stated that the present genera
ton will live to see it, and that most Of
us will be present when the end comes.

iNTERNAl REYeNuE REcEIPrs.
over Eleven ssniicn Dollars Taken in the
Past Seven Days.

over Eleven Mfifion Dollars Taken in the
Past Seven Days.
WASHINGTON Aug. 24.--Reoeipts from
internal revenue sources continue to be
abnormally large, with every prospect
Of continuing so until the new tariff
bill goes into effect. During the last
seven working days from Aug. 10, the
receipts have reached the unprecedent-
ed sum of Gil, 900, 1872, and it Is conf
IDENTIFY expected that by next Saturday
night, at midnight, when the new act
win become operative, the aggregate re-
ceipts for the preceding 10 days will
have reached $l5,000,000.
These large receipts under the cir
cumstances are deprecated by the treas
ury officials, who like the situation to
that of the poor man, paying 10 per
cent per month for money upon which
they live. The reason for this is that the
aid that comes to the treasury in this
way is only temporary at best and will
only add to the embarrassment later on,
for on every gallon of whisky now be-
ing withdrawn, the government sooner
or later, is bound to lose 20 cents.
AS soon as the tariff bill goes into OPP
GRAFTON the receipts from this source are
expected to drop down to a merely nom-
.inal amount and SO continue some
months until the great supply now being
laid in is exhausted.
These abnormally large receipts have
swelled the cash balances in the treas
ury to nearly $l2l 100000. AT the same
time the gold reserve is slowly increas-
ing, until it has now reached about
S54,000,000. This increase is due al
most entirely to the western demand
for small notes with which to harvest
the crops.
Under the terms of the special circu-
lar issued by the United States treasury
IN June last small notes are exchanged
only for gold, and very substantial sums
are now being received daily from this
source.
The demand for small notes has not
yet set in from the south, but the move
ment of cotton, now beginning, is ex-
pected to bring in considerable sums of
gold so that for the present, at least,
the embarrassments which have threat
ened the treasury have passed by.

A DEVILS DEED
Causes Death and Destruction on an Ohio
Farm.

Farm.
AKRON, o., Aug. 2+.-An atrocious
crime resulted in destruction and death
ON the farm of Abe Whitner, just south
of tits city. Wheat thrashing was in
progress, and sheaf of wheat, in which
some incarnate villain had put a dyna-
mite cartridge, was fed into the sepa-
rator. A terrific explosion followed,
completely dismantling the machine
and firing the immense bank barn.
The flames spread with such rapidity
that Abe Whitner, Rolly Whitner and
Jacob Meyer, who attempted to rescue
the horses, were cut off. Meyer was
burned to death and Abe and Rolly
Whitner barely escaped with their
lives. Abe Whitner, indeed, is fatally
burned, but Rolly Whitner will recover.
-Four horses, mule and some cattle
were roasted to death. Whitner also
lost years crop and much valuable
farm machinery. Loss, $4,000; insur-
ance, 81 800.

Drouth in Crawford County.

ENGLISH, Ind, Aug. 24.-The good
effects of the recent rains have passed
away, owing to the dryness of the
ground, leaving the potato and bean
crop in a worse condition than known
for 25 years. The corn crop is worse
than on record for 20 years. But for tls
good wheat and hay crops the prospects
would be much worse than last year.
Farmers who never before knew the
lack of water are driving their stock two
miles and more for supplies. This is
unusual, because this country is noted
for its fine springs.

rels into his head and body, killing him
instantly. Purghan at once delivered
himself to the authorities.
