Stevens Of Maine. ex-minister to Hawaii.
is here to testify before the senate investi-
cation committee. Mr.. Stevens said that
he was not surprised at the revelation of
the presidents dealing with Queen Lili-
uokalani, made in the documents sent to
congress last Saturday.
II must admit that the queens an
pouncement that she would behead her
enemies surprised me-" he said, because
supposed her advisors would not let her
make such q mistake. That she should
hold such intentions is not at all surpris-
ing, because the spirit she manifested
was in perfect harmony with her charac-
ter. II seemed that she had perfect con-
fldence in President Cleveland's intention
to restore her, and his absolute power TO
carry them out She thought she held the
cards in her own hands.
Had the queen been restored to power on
the conditions imposed by the president"
Mr.. Stevens continued. there would
have been no guaranty that she would
keep her promise day after the reins
were in her own hands, or that there
would not have been a slaughter of the
Americans who had taken part in estab-
fishing the provisional government.

A SEVERE REBUKE
Administered to Prosecuting Attorney
In tho Coughlin Case.

IN the SOuBnliu Chse.
CHICAGO. Jan. 19.-"I say that the con-
duct Of the attorney, IL he did write that
article, is unprofessional and outrage
ous"
Such was the rebuke Judge Tuthill adj
ministered to Associate Prosecuting At
torney Scanlan in the Coughlin trial yes
terday. Judge Wing, Coughlin's de-
fense had read to the court an article
which appeared in Chicago newspaper,
in which Mr.. Scanlan was quoted as say
ing that he feared the Coughlin jury had
been fixed" and intimated that officials
high in authority were responsible. An
affidavit setting forth several public
stories assaiiing the prosecution, in addi-
tion to the charge Of jury bribing, was
presented.
Judge Tuthill began scoring of Scan
Ian, and when that attorney interrupted
the Judge said: mo do not care to hear
from you. Such communication as
yours is an outrage upon the jury.
don't want to hear anything from you
unless you want to deny you wrote it.
You have done an outrageous thing and IL
you get the opinion of any fair-minded
lawyer you will hear the same from him. /"
"But think -"
'Never mind what you think, your posi-.
tion Is absolutely indefensible"
Attorney Scanlan acknowledged that he
had done wrong in going into print and
offered to apologize for his error, but in
sisted that what the article said was true.

WILL BE KEPT SECRET.
Secretary Carlisle Won't Give Out Names
of Bond Purchasers.

OF Bond Purchasers.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. 1T was an
nounced at the treasury department last
evening that Secretary Carlisle would de-
cline to make public the names of the per
sons Offering to take bonds. the amount
they subscribed or the figure they offered.
To make public the figures, it was pointed
out, would give late bidders an oppor-
tunity to offer better terms than those
offered by the earlier bidders.
IL was said, however, that New Yorker
had offered to take the whole $50, 0O0, 900 at
the minimum premium of sll7.223. There
is said to be no likelihood of the accept
ance Of this or any similar offer, as il is
contrary to the secretary's desire to make
the loan popular one to which the pub
lie generally may subscribe.
1t Is believed at the treasury depart
ment, from orders already received, that
the total Offering will aggregate nearly
e200, 900, 900 aud that the price will reach
$l20, making the bond practically bear
but 2 i-2 per cent interest.
The issue for the present will be con.
fined to denominations of s5o 800 and
$1,000 of coupon bonds, and $50, 800, $1,000,
and $4,000 of registered bonds.
