liut rlpnty on tho Delnwnre.

The p, w. & Il. Railroad Co.'s supply
of soft coal is fast becoming reduced
and nearly all of its freight trains and
some of its passenger trains have started
TO use hard coal. 10 avoid causing dis
trcss among the manufacturers the COM
pauy has refraincd from contiscating
soft coal. Trains using hard coal cannot
run as fast as those using soft coal,
which fact accounts for the detention of
tiains .his week. The Delaware Railroad
Go. has plenty Of soft coal. Its locomo-
tives, as constructed at present, cannot
use hard coal, and If its supply of soft
coal becomes exhausted it will have to
burn wood or put another style of CRATE
in the engines.

Judge Parker Says the United States Has
Deceived the Indians
FoRr SMITH, Ark, May s.-Judge
Parker, who presides over the federal
court at this point, which has juris-
diction over the Indian territory, and
who has probably made closer study
of the Indian problem than any other
man in this country, created d sem
sation here yesterday by ntterances
during his address to the grand jury,
which are significant in view of the
present agitation of the Indian prob
lem He said:
1.-The governments of the United
States has made many pledges to the
Indians which have never been re-
deemed When these people were
removed to the territory the govern
ment said to them; Not. only will we
give you farms and homes in fee sim
pie, but we will protect you in your
rights We will give you every pro-
lection against lawlessness; we will
see that every refugee, every bandit,
every murderer that comes into your
country is put out
Not one of these pledges has ever
been kept, exec PIT for the work that
has been done by the United States
courts having jurisdiction over this
outlaws that have made the territory
a land of crime. The fault of all this
lies with the government. When this
nation shall have done its duty toward
this people and fulfilled the solemn
pledges made them, then will it be
time enough to ask them to move for

Situation in Hawaii Said to Be
Strained.
ROyalistS Demand Enforcement
Of Cleveland's Policy.
KEEPING QUIET NOW.
But They May Very Soon Make
Trouble.

WASHINGTON, May s.-Probably few
members of congress realize just how
strained the situation is in Hawaii to-
day and what exciting news is likely
to be received from there shortly. A
letter dated April 5, just received by
G. G. Moreno from r w. Wilcox, of
Honolulu, puts the case in this way:
Every Hawaiian expects to learn
of the final decision of the Hawaiian
question on the steamer Mariposa,
which is expected on the 18th. They
look only for fair play on the part of
the senate. They ask simply that the
senate will support Cleveland's policy
for the restoration of the statu quo
before January 10, 1892, when Stevens,
the ngorepresentative of the United
States, overthrow the legitimate gov
eminent and established missionary
oligarehy which is a curse to us and a
disgrace to modern civilization.
1.-THE Hawaiians are keeping the
peace, notwithstanding the insults
they have received from the provis-
ional government for thew wish to
show every regard and courtesy to
President Cleveland and his policy. A
bloody revolution will -ollow, how
ever, if the senate fails in its duty
and throws contempt upon the honor,
integrity and justice of the policy of
the chief magistrate of the United
senate may do. you may be assured
that l will do my duty to my country.

of the provisional government, has
given his assurance to Samuel Parker
that the provisional government would
retire in body and surrender control
of the kingdom to the queen as soon
as it learned that the senate approves
of President Cleveland's policy.
THE scheme of the provisional gov
eminent for inducing the Hawaiians
to forswear their in lependence and
forsake their queen turns out COM
plete failure. The Chinese have or
ganized as body to secure the restor-
alton of the queen in case the United
States senate fails to do Justice The
japanese have taken the same course
These. bear in mind. are all apart
from the Hawaiians themselves and
from the white foreigners The Ha-
waiians are going to hold a mass
meeting next Monday to denounce
the fra udulent constitutional conven-
ton and the mock republic set up by
the missionaries.

REPUBLICAN SPEECHES.

WIN Insist Upon Few Speeches the
Compromise TariH Bill
WASHINGTON, May s--The Republi-
can steering committee of the senate
held conference yesterday for the
purpose of considering the attitude of
the Republican party in the sen ate on
the tariff question in view of the
claims made by the Democrats that
they have assurance of the forty three
votes necessary to pass the bill
While the members of the COM
mittee do not freely discuss the
action of the committee, it is under
stood that they decided to notify the
Democratic leaders that they had no
intention of fhbustering against the
tariff bill, and especially would not be
inclined to resort to dilatory tactics ii
the Democratic party should prove to
be substantially united upon the bill.
The interchange of views developed
the fact, however, that the Republi-
cans think that there is much mate
rial in the new compromise bill for
legitimate discussion and that they
will insist upon the right to discuss
the bill as amended upon its merits
