MAY BE STEPHENSON.
Menominee Congressman Possibility
for Senator of Michigan.

Lansing, Mich, May 3.-Numerous
letters to Gov. Rich regarding the
United States senatorship made vacant
by the death of Senator StOckbridge,
suggest as successor ex-GOv. Luce,
Congressman Burrows, ex-Gov. Jerome,
Benton Hanchett e. o. Grosvenor and
o. L. Spaulding. Within the past
twelve hours a new senatorial posi-
bility was developed in Congressman
Samuel Stephenson, Of Menominee.
There are several reasons why Gov.
Rich will be likely to give Congress-
man Stephenson's candidacy consider
able weight. In the first place, he is
a man of excellent tact and judgment
Stephenson is no speechmaker, but
it is said he has accomplished fully as
much for Michigan in congress as any
one whom the state has sent to Wash
ington for many years. Again, if there
is any section Of the state where Gov.
Rich may expect disaffection it is in
the upper peninsula. Indications now
are that either eX-Gov. Luce, Congress
man Burrows Or Sam Stephenson will
fill the vacant senatorial seat at Wash
ington.

THEY TALK WAR.
HaWaiians Expect and Demand the
Queens Restoration.


Washington, May Probably few
members of congress realize just how
strained the Situa ton is in Hawaii to-
day and what exciting news we are
likely to receive from there shortly
after adjournment, if not earlier. A
letter, dated April 5, just received by
c. C. Moreno from r. w. Wilcox, of
Honolulu, says:
Every Hawaiian expects to learn
of the final decision of the Hawaiian
question on the arrival of the steamer
MaripOsa, which is expected on the
18th. They ask simply that the senate
toration of the status which existed
before Jan. is, 1892, when Stevens
overthrow the legitimate government
and established a missionary oligarchy
which is a curse to US and a disgrace to
modern civilization. The HawaiianS
are keeping the peace Notwithstanding
the insults they have received from the
provisional government. A bloody
revolution will follow, however, if the
senate fails in its duty.
IS. NJ. Damon, minister of france of
the provisional government. has given
his assurance to Samuel Parker, that
the provisional government would re-
tire in a body and surrender control
of the kingdom to the queen as soon
as it learned that the senate approves
of President Cleveland's policy.

Madison. Nav :.

-hdiLSOii, May .
The jury in the trial of the case of
the United States government against
A. A. Cadwallader, charged by six
counts in an indictment with embezzle-
ment, willful misapplication and mis-
appropriation of the funds of the Su-
periOr National bank. of which he was
president during the first three months
of its experience, after about thirty
hours of elaboration, failed to agree
on a verdict, but agreed to disagree by
vote Of eight for conviction and four
for acquittal
There was tedious session Saturday
night as suggested in Sunday morn
ings Democrat. 1t was nearly 10
O'Clock Sunday morning that a bailiff
summoned Judge Bum to the United
States court room to settle some mis-
understanding. Some of them were
not quite clear as to just what charges
were included in the counts. and two
or three had understood the Judges
charge as favorable to acquittal. Judge
Bum instructed them again as to the
charges in the counts, and told them
again that he could not instruct them
as to what their verdict should be- as
he would, if he were to take any such
course, direct their verdict definitely.
He could give them no further instruc-
ton, he said, beyond reading his origi-
nal charge again, if that was desired.
The jurymen did not think this neces-
sary, and the jury was again left alone
in the court ROOM
1t was 10 O'Clock Sunday night that
the jury again sent word to Judge
Bum that his presence was desired.
The court and attorneys assembled,
about 1870, and the foreman informed
Judge Bum, in response to his query,
that they had not agreed and he did
not think they ever could agree. The
judge asked the other jurors if they
were of the same mind, and they all
responded in the affirmative. Judge
expressed his regret at this condition
of affairs, but said he did not doubt
each man acted according to his duty
as he saw it, There was but one thing
to do, and that was to dismiss the
jury, which he did.
A juryman reported, after the matter
had ended that the last ballot taken by
the jury stood eight for conviction to
four for acquittal. The first vote taken
on the charge of embezzlement stood
six to six and on the other counts of
seven to five to nine to three for con-
viction.
This case falls as &. legacy to II. e.
Briggs, who will supersede S. A.
Harper in a few days as United States
district attorney. What will be ulti-
mately done is not known; but it is
quite certain that Cadwallader will be
kept in the county Jail for several
months awaiting results. 1t is said
that he has no way of securing bail.
He is as poor as church mouse"
Yesterday afternoon Jack Hoyt, Of
Glenwood, was put on trial before the
United States court on the charge Of
passing counterfeit silver dollars at
MeLong, in this state. A storekeeper
at MenOng testified that HOyt paid
him three or four silver dollars which
were found to be counterfeit. The
defendant claims that if they coun-
terfeit he had no knowledge Of the
fact.

Is RICH ENOUGH.

Washington, May 5.-Richard Croker,
the Tammany chief, is spending a few
days in Washington. Mr.. Croker is
said to be contemplating permanent
retirement from politics His physician
has advised him to take an indefinite
period of rest, and to that end he feels
that he must get out of politics at once.
1t is, therefore, probable that he will
give up the leadership Of Tammany
and devote himself strictly to his
private business.

Bill to Make Republicans.

That is comprehensive and true
enough title for the variegated measure
known as the Wilson bill.
Although not yet, thank Heaven! a
law, it is already working. 1t is already
making republicans of democrats by the
thousands, the tens of thousands, the
hundreds of thousands.
Wherever the people get chance to
vote, the wonderful efficiency of the pro-
posed bill to make republicans of demo-
Gratis, even in advance of its enactment,
is demonstrated by actual results.
How do democrats like the prospect?
Are they anxious to see the measure in
operation on full time and with full
horse power, income attachment and all,
using the democracy of the United
States as raw material, and turning out
republicans by the million as the fin
ished product.
And all for the sake of "tariff reform ;"
meaning by that phrase not any honest
and definite and consistent reform of the
tariff according to any Ineligible prin-
ciple, but a vague and mendacious.
