Legislative Squabble In New Jersey I'll Took Its Cue from the Sunflower Stats

A Legislative Squabble In New Jersey That
 Took Its Cue from the Sunnower state.
 TRENTON, N. J., Jan. l2.-The repub- lican senators asked Gov. Werts yester- day for the keys to the chamber. The do with the matter. A committee then visited Superintendent Ford. He re- ferred them to Michael Nathan, the democratic sergeant-at-arms. Nathan could not be found and the republicans sent for a locllsmith. The latter was unable to effect an entrance, a hundred keys being tried in the chamber door, but without avail
 Capt. Jack Graham, of Jersey City, then broke in window leading to the ladies' gallery and threw back the bolt of the main doors and in few minutes republicans filed into the room.
 At S:2O Senator Rogers, president of the republican senate, was in the chair and the other republicans were in their seats. A committee on rules was ap- pointed and Clerk Potts of the house delivered the senate race track re- pealer. A recess was then taken.
 Shortly before II o'clock this morn- ing Senators Winton and Hinchliffe went to the doors of the chamber and tapped on the glass. Within were a half dozen assistant republican ser geants-at-arms who had been left in control. According to their instruc- tions they opened the door and in walked the democratic senator's Ser geant-at-Arms Nathan, of the demo- cratic senate, soon after appeared. He asked the assistants what right they had there. Then he peremptorily or dered them out They refused to go until he pushed them out. They then retired without further resistance.

Toilet Saclets.

Among the many dainty fixtures of the modern bedroom the fashion of a pretty hanging cushion for the toilet table, perfumed with some sachet pow. der, suggested by the color of the room, is one of the most delightful. The sachet powder may be violet for blue room, in the form of blue Russian violet, if you fancy, or a simple affair of dainty blue silk and lace, much sug. gesting the favorite flower of the hour. For pink room it may be perfumed with rose powder in the form of full. blown rose, or in any dainty form in pink and white which the maker fan. cies. Lavender makes one of the most delightful sachets, the color contrast. ing well in yellow room if used in a combination with a delicate shade of yellow. Very pretty wall sachets are made of tissue paper, crimped and in some delicate color, suggesting flowers, while they do not in any way copy them.-N. Y. Tribune.

Five Masked Men Hold Up Q Train Near
 St. Joseph-Got but Little Money.
 ST. JOSEPH, Mo, Jan. 1.-The Bur lington Eli" leaving this city at 6:25, was held up by five masked men about three miles outside of this city last evening and the safe in the express car ritled of its contents The "Eli" is the fast train between this city and Chi cago and makes but few stops all the local business being done by the St. Louis train which follows it shortly afterward. Last evening as the train was just getting under good headway the engineer was startled to hear the explosion of three torpedoes, which had been placed upon the track at the same time red lantern was swung across the track in the regular style of brakeman. The wheels of the locomo- tive had hardly ceased revolving when the engineer and fireman heard a grutf voice from some one beneath the cab, saying: Come down from there, we want to use you little while" The once covered by several revolvers in the ndnQS or masked men.
 There were five of the robbers, for such they were, and one of them said: Come along with us and have your friend, the express messenger, open the door; he knows you better than he does us, and we want to make a call" Thus covered by the weapons the en. gineer and fireman walked back to the express car and asked the messenger to open the door. Having no suspicion as to the cause of the delay the messenger readily complied and was at once cov- cred with long rifle in the hands of one of the masked men. Two more of the robbers followed the one with the rifle into the car each of them having a pistol in each hand.
 Well, guess you had better open the safe, and be mighty quick about it, for we want what's in it." said one of the men, and the safe was opened as requested. The robber then took all the valua ables in the safe, and wanted to know if that was all that was to be had. Upon being assured that it was they climbed out of the car and told the trainmen to proceed. Then firing their revolvers in the air they disap- peared in the darkness, the whole affair occupying only few minutes. The train was run on to Saxton, the first station out of this city, from which place the first report was made to the officials in this city.
 All of the trainmen are of the opin. ion that the robbers were amateurs, for during the whole proceedings they appeared nervous and very much ex. cited, and all of their work seemed to be very much bungled. From Cameron the express messenger who had time to look over his bills, telegraphed to w. II. Morley, of the Adams Express Co.,, that the total amount secured was but ST.

Sensational Double Murder and Mystery

Sensational Double Murder and Mystery
 Very strange Affair.
 ST. LOUIS, Jan. l2.-The police of this city have suddenly been confronted by one of the most mysterious cases they ever tried to solve. Yesterday morn- ing a mIn named Steve K. Wilsko ap- piled at boarding house at 1412 Olive street for a room, finally engaging a room for week, paying therefor in ad- vance He then left the house, return ing late in the afternoon and going, instead of to his own room, to one on the same floor occupied by Miss Josie Stevenson. Late last night a man called at the house and asked to see Miss Stevenson. Going to her room to call her, the landlady found the door open. Miss Stevenson was lying on the floor dead with a bullet hole through her forehead. Wilsko was on the bed, some six feet distant, shot twice through the heart. Between the two on the floor was revolver, all five chambers of which were empty
 The first theory was that a murder had been followed by suicide, but after examination of the room and wounds the police say neither of the dead per sons could have fired the fatal shots. The two additional shots from the re- volver were fired at the man, but missed. Although there were several persons in the house, on the same floor, and the one above, all the afternoon, no one heard any shooting or unusual noise.
 Nothing is known of Willzso and but little of Miss Stevenson. The whole affair is shrouded in mystery and much of sensational nature is expected in its sdisentanrlement

MIR. BLoUNT QUESTIONED.
The Ex-Special Envoy Explains Ills Seleo-
 tion and Course at Hawaii.

tion and Course at Hawaii. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Contrary to previous announcement, ex-Special Commissioner Blount was this morning before the senate committee which is Investigating the relations of this country with Hawaii under the resolu- tion of Senator Morgan.
 Mir. Blount told bri ehy of his ap- pointment March 10, 1893, by the Presi. dent, as special commissioner to inves- tigate the condition of affairs on the Hawaiian islands, which had been de- veloped by the revolution of last Jan- uary. The part the American troops had taken in the revolution, the fact that the American minister had established an American protectorate over the islands, and that provis. ional government had been formed and was seeking to have the islands an- nexed to the United States caused the president to desire to have the whole matter investigated by some one who had no connection with the islands. and he had been selected for this mis- sion He considered the appointment as within the bounds of propriety and precedent.
 The decision to have the American ensign taken down and the American soldiers returned to the man-of-war was next revived. Mr Blount said that he found the islands and the gov ernment entirely under the control or protection of the United States troops The American flag foated over the government building In which tho officers of the provisional government conducted their business. Everywhere was noticed the influence of this country upon the people of the islands It was evident that it would be diff cult to secure an impartial account or opinion uninfiuenced by the surround ings as long as this state of affairs con- tinued. Consequently he decided March 3l, two days after his arrival, that, in accordance with the spirit of his instructions in the interest of fair play, the flag should be taken down and the American troops re- moved. Of this decision he informed President Dole and on the following day ended the temporary protectorate and he had the flag lowered. This pro- ceeding he defended as within the scope of his mission and as an entirely proper proceeding under the circum- stances. The subsequent events, he said, proved that the presence of the American troops was not necessary to preserve order or protect the life and property of either Americans or na- tiyes.

THE TREASURY CRISIS.

Secretary Carlisle Before the Senate
 Finance Committee-He Favors Bonds.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. F. - Secretary Carlisle appeared before the senate finance committee and asked for au- thority to issue bonds. He thinks an issue of bonds the best way to meet the apparently rapidly approaching crisis in the treasury.
 The secretary dwelt briefly upon the steadily diminishing gold reserve and stated that, instead of increasing as he had hoped the government receipts would do, they had continued to dimin- ish until there was coming to be monthly gap of about s1O,0OO, 900 be. tween the receipts and expenditures. He said the act of 1875 for the resump- tion of specie payments, which also authorized 8 bond issue, should be so anne nded as to permit this issuance for shorter time and at lower rate of interest than provided in that act. The country would not justify the secretary in taking advantage of the old author ity, because United States government bonds could be disposed of at much lower rate of interest and for far short CT time. He thought it would be a very easy matter to sell bonds enough to ride over the present urgency-to meet the prospective deficiency of the present fiscal year-at per cent. in. terest and running for three, four oy five years

THE "ELI" HOLD-UP.

Detectives Unable to Trace the Burlington
 Train Robbers-what They Missed and
 What They Got
 ST. JOSEPH, Mo, Jan. 12-So far there is no clew to the identity of the men who robbed the "Elf' train east of this city Wednesday night The po- lice are of the opinion that home talent did the work, and that the rigs used by them were individual property, as none of the livery stables here furnished any to parties not known. The mail car was not molested as at first stated. Postal Clerk Arthur Gage, of Atchisou, who was in charge, securely fastened the doors of the car, got out his re- volver and made ready to exchange few shots with the bandits, should they attempt to get at the mail.
 Either they did not realize that there were valuables in the car, or else they had not the courage to touch Uncle Sam's property; at any rate they left without attempting to enter the mail car They missed big swag by their negligence, for in the car were two registered pouches filled with valuable
 
 Lying on the floor of the car between the stove and the safe was registered pouch containing all the money pack ages transferred from the Charlton branch of the Burlington at this point With commendable presence of mind WetZell, when he saw the robbers be- gin to climb into his car, gave the pouch kick that sent it under the stove and out of sight, where it re- mained unmolested until the robbers took their departvre.
 The robbers secured several small money packages, which it is claimed contained exactly $4s in the aggregate The registered pouch that remained in hiding underneath the stove during the footing contained probably between s2, 1000 and 8, 900 in money It was consigned to the Commercial national bank of Chicago, and was the only package of any great value in posses sion of the express messenger that night
 Assistant General Agent Moseley, of the Adams Express Co.,, has checked up Messenger Wetzell's run and says that as near as he can tell now the amount of money taken by the robbers was about S1, 1,000.

In ali the larger cities of Turkey, but more particularly in the harbor cities, are men like that. smyrna is a hotbed of them. About one-half the Turkish officials there are Creek, Armenian or French apostates, like Dumont, an ex- officer in the engineers, who attained to seraskierate Ia generals rank and salary of S12,000 by rendering val uable services to the porte during the Candidate uprising.
 In Persia, though, cases of this kind are even, relatively speaking, more frequent. The present chief of police there, Count Monteforte, is Neapoli- tan by birth, held office under the in- famous king, became known to history as I'll Re BomLa, " fed before Garibaldi and the crumblings of this last Bourbon throne to Vienna, where he became pensioner of the emperor. He was ab- jectly poor in those days, and every noon he went personally to the Hof- burg in Vienna to receive his five flor ins which his majesty allowed him as stipend At last he fled to Persia from his creditors, selling his last trinkets and valuable furs on the way to pay travelling expenses, arriving there in state of utter Restitution, literally a "beggar on horseback" But with his Italian pliancy he soon ingratiated himself into the good graces of the shah.

Two Men Take the Life of a Minister at
 Camden, \. J.
 CAMDEN, N. J., Jan. 11.-Rev. Henry F. Cheesman, pastor of the Eighth Street Methodist church in this city, was deliberately drowned last night in the Delaware river at the foot of Chest nut street by two men who are under arrest for the crime.
 An officer heard the clergyman cry loudly for help but owing to the dark ness was unable to locate the direction from which the sound came. Two sail ors who had also heard the cry reached the spot about the same time as the of ficer. They saw the body of a man floating in the river, and leaping in brought it to shore. Life was not yet extinct, but the heart beats were very faint Mir. Cheesman expired in a few minutes.
 The police shortly after midnight ar rested Isaac George and Solomon Will lis on suspicion of having committed the crime. What the clergyman was doing on the wharf at that time of night and what the motive for the crime are mysteries.
