WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. SO few menu
bers Of either house of congress were to
be found in Washington last week
there was seemingly a well4founded
apprehension that both the senate
and the house might find them
selves without quorums and be una
bic to accomplish any business
in the first week of the ses-
sion. The hotel registers TODAY
show that there will probably be a
quorum of members of both houses in
their seats to listen to the presidents
message tomorrow. Senators and rep
resentatives have been brought to the
city on every train arriving Saturday
and Sunday. Tonight they are focking
into town like school boys on the day
before a term, and the corridors are
filled with politicians and talk Of poll
tics as they have not be since last
August.

Natives Now Espousing the Cause OF An

TOLEDO o.. Jan. 2L-Mr. Fred Warehouse
Of Honolulu is In the city. Prior to the revo-
luton Mr.. Warehouses; father was q m en- Der
of the Queens Privy Council. and though an
Engllshmnn. is now strong annexationist.
and stands close TO Pr ssident Dole In speak
ing OF the various matters OF concern in the
Islands ut the present time. Mr. Warehouse
said:
The latest developments in the islands
make It appear TO me beyond n question OF
doubt that the Queen will never be restored to
the throne. Instead Of growing feeling In
favor OF q restoration. the Queen Is losing
strength. and among those who have been
her warmest followers. As an instance Of
this. the Bulletin. an evening paper owned
entirely by the royalist party. admits that
there is no possibility Of a return to the old
monarchy The opposition has gone even
further. The feeling among most OF the natives
toward President Cleveland has been that OF
reverence. as for an all-poweriul god. whom
they expected TO save them from what
fate. Those OF the royalists In control have
made the more Ignorant OF the natives believe
that should tns SSs y Wod o be-
dared to show themselves within tho city. This
is no foolish staten ent. for such n doctrine Is
taught openly In the streets OF Honolulu o. day.
When Willis came and demanded OF Dole
that he give way to royalty IL was not sup
posed among the more ignorant OF the atiyes
that any one dared oppose, the will OF Clsyo-
Dole refused they learned for the first time
that there was likely to be opposition TO the
restoration OF the Queen. The result has been
that many Of the natives have forgotten the
alton. Principal among them is Prince .Runf-
the He Belongs ths od RAN
cha line. and is q man Of great Influence.
Neither Kalakaua nor the ex-Queen was
OF royal blood. and consequently the eX-
Queen has not tho influence she. would have
otherwise. President Dole Is to-day the most
popular man In Hawaii. and is we'll liked. not
only by his own party. but by those most Bit
terry opposed to him.
Claus Spreckels is credited with saying
that when he Is in shane to completely control
the sugar interests In the island he will he In
favor OF annexation Even the royalists be-
licvs that Spreckels is Actuated in his COURSE
by more desire 20 increase his interests In the
Islands, for with tho ignorant natives In power
he can. with all his present influence with the
Queen. secure whatever advantages he might

has been divorced. and has not been rscog-

BRrpeEPoar. Jan. 2l.-The strike Of the EN-.

gan on Saturday afternoon. assumed q serious

these started out to-day with horse cars. The

one car got NJ far as Congress street when q
mob overturned II. smashed the windows and
SGT the car on fire. A second car was over
turned. and then the entire police force OF
thrty-six men tried to dispense 1000 persons
at the scene. At that time nearly 5000 per-
sons had gathered about the stables in East
Bridgeport. The rough element began to
throw Etones. Tho tracks were coon barri-
cnded with old carts. wagons. lumber. barrels.
and stones.
Tho Mayor. backed by tho police. tried TO
address tho crowd. but they jeered him. Pres
ident IIett then turned the road and oil its
property over to the Mayor. asking for police
protection. Tho Police Commissioners have
appealed to County Sheriff Garrison for aid.
and It Ia exnected that he will call out the mi
litiu. Many saloons were thrown omen. despite
the law. and were thronged. Policeman Marco
was injured with stone. Another policeman.
while trying to push car. was kicked and
trampled upon.
The strike was caused by the discharge OF
four men. No reason was given for this. and
men from New Jersey were substituted. This
was in violation OF an agreement made last
summer to settle strike ut that time The
sympathy OF the citizens ,or the strikers arises
because the traction company has not kept
faith with the city.
The main road. MS well IA the one to STRAIT
ford. and all branches. was bought by q syndi-
cate for about 100000. The capital stock
has been increased to 50, O0O. 900. aud $780,
