HARRISON'S TRiCkERY.

The Hawaiian Trouble Precipitated by
Clevelands Predecessor.
President Cleveland is criticising the
former administration, say the
Hawaiian annexationists. That is true
if it is criticism to present in very
clear light the fact that President
Harrison sent in the treaty of annexa-
ton on the 18th of February. 1893, ex.s
actly two weeks before the expiration
of his term, evidently hoping that it
would be ratified and become an &C.
complished fact before the new presi-
dent and senate could assume the
offices to which they had been chosen.
This was an attempt to forestall not
only the new president and senate, but
also the people Of tho United States
Time and again it had been proven
that the people were opposed to the
annexation of the distant islands.
They had rejected the island of st.
Thomas against the most urgent
efforts Of Mr.. Seward to compass its
acquisition. They had rejected San
Domingo against the repeated and
persevering efforts of President
Grant They would even have re-
fused Alaska but for the feeling
that its rejection would be in the
nature of an afront to the car of. Rus
STA, to whom we stood under some OBJ
legations at that time. The traditional
policy OF the country, handed down
from George Washington-and he left
US nothing better, nothing which time
has more fully approved-was opposed
to such acquisitions. It was most un-
justifable act on the part of Mr.. Har-
rison to take snap judgment on the
people in the brief interval of two
weeks before leaving Office. 1t was
also discourteous to his successor. The
ofense is aggravated by the fact that
in order to take the snap Judgment it
became necessary to ignore the queens
very reasonable request for hearing.
To give such hearing would have in
volved delay till the new president and
senate should come in. If such tram
sactlon in the ordinary concerns of life
should come for review before court
of law, it would be characterized In
terms which we would not like to see
applied to president or an ex-presl-
dent of the United States. IN. Y. Post.

An Art In which Few Excel and In Which,
Blunders Arc Easily Made.
Making change is an art in which
few excel and even those who do some
times make serious errors. When an
error is made and it is in favor of the
shopkeeper there is never any diff
Guilty in having correction made, but
when it is in favor of the purchaser
one has to bring the most convincing
proof to bear before the matter is adj
justed., There are some exceptions,
however, as an incident which occurred
in one of the downtown hotels the
other day will show. :
j A nicely-dressed gentleman with a
diamond stud as large as the headlight
of a locomotive walked into the Office
and up to the clerks desk.
'Will you change a bill so that can
get four dollars?" he asked.
81 guess So" responded the clerk me-
chemically.
The gentleman drew small roll of
money from his pocket, and peeling Off
the outside bill, tossed it on the coun-
ter. 1t was a ten-dollar bill.
The clerk counted out five silver dol
lars, and with them laid a .fve-dollar
DILL on the counter.
The gentleman surveyed the lucre q
few seconds, and then said: 81 guess
you've made a mistake, haven't your
mo; you gave me ten dollars" re-
piled the clerk, land that's what L
have given YOU"
II gave you a twenty-dollar bill, SIR"
said the gentleman, confidently, ''and
I want ten dollars more"
The clerk commenced searching
through the money-drawer. and the
gentleman reassuringly continued: 81
know it was a twenty, because had
only two twenties and q ten. They
were all new bills
II thought it was new bill" said
the clerk, 'but the only new bill I find
in the drawer is a ten. However,
may be mistaken, and will pay you
what you think is right
About this time the gentleman dis
covered that he had two twenties in
his pocket. and that, instead of peeling
off one of them, he had given the clerk
the ten. His apology was profuse, and
he fairly begged the clerk not to think
he had been trying to work a game on
him. The gentlemen were strangers
when this incident occurred, but they
are good friends now. The next day
the clerk wore a five-dallar hat paid
for by his friend. Post

First Case to Come Up Under the New
Pool Laws.

The first case for trial for violation of
the new pool law was brought up in the
Sixth District court this morning. James
II. Angel was the defendant, and was
changed with being the proprietor of a
pool room. Lawyer Brennan
appeared for the defense. De-
tecttves Swan and Murray testified
10 the fact that they bought tickets on he
races at Sheepshead Bay. On one of the
tickets Detective Murray won SO and on
the Others he lost. An effort was made TO
prove that the business was run by Angel.
But little testimony was entered by the
defense. Angel denied that he was the
owner OF the business and documentary
evidence was introduced to prove his
statement. Lawyer Brennan then sum
med up the testimony on both sides in a
lengthy harangue and declared the
law would not hold. Eventually
Angel was adjudged probably
guilty and was bound over in 800 surety
for trial before the common pleas division
of the Supreme Court.

WHARF COLLAPSED.
Two Men Killed in Boston and a
Number Injured.

Boston, July 10.-While large crowd
of workmen were unloading the schooner
Jennie Hall at Commercial wharf shortly
after 10 o'clock today, the wharf collapsed
and number of them were buried in the
ruins. Two are dead. Three were taken
out unconscious and hurried to the hospi-
tai and four more are said to be buried
under the wreckage.
Agreat weight OF coal on the wharf is
said to have caused the collapse.
The Details.
By The Associated Press.
BosToN, July 10.-One man was killed
and six seriously injured by the collapse
of section of Commercial wharf,
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning.
They were engaged i'm removing
a part OF cargo OF coal which had been
unloaded upon the wharf from the
schooner Jennie Hail. there being at the
time more than two hundred tons CT coal
upon the wharf.
The strain of this great weight was too
much for the structure, and with its bur
den of coal, sheds and workmen fell into
the water without warning. The work
men were buried in the confused mass
of coal and broken timber, and when as
sistance arrived one was dead and several
others nearly so. Their names are:
MICHAEL DRIsCoLL, dead.
WILLIAM DRISCoLL, son OF the man
killed, internal injuries, probably fatal.
RICHARD II. BEST, severe flesh wounds
and internal injuries.
MARTIN HINES, bruised and otherwise
injured.
THOMAS McGRATH, probably fatal in
ternal injuries.
DAVID SMITH, severely bruised.
The latter heard the crash and attempted
to escape, but was caught by falling tim
bers. He, however, succeeded in hanging
to the edge of the w haff- which did not
fall until he was rescued.
When the wharf went down cloud OF
thick black dust hid the scene for an in
slant. A rescuing party was quickly or
ganized and two of the men partially
buried in the coal were at once extricated.
McGrath was found buried up TO the
neck and was taken out apparently dead.
Driscoll was quite dead when the rescuers
reached him. McGrath was afterward
revived.
The injured men were sent to the Emer-
gency Hospital as soon as they were res
cued. An alarm was given from the
nearest station and members of the fire
department assisted in the work OF saving
the men.
The coal is usually unloaded at the end
OF the wharf, which is strengthened for
this purpose, but there was no room
for the Halls cargo there, and she
discharged at the inner dock, which
was not strong enough to sustain the i'm
mense weight. IL Is stated that w. f.
Day, the wharfinger, notified the men
this morning of the condition of the
wharf and they were removing it when
the accident occurred.
