WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE Hawaii
an resolution was again the subject of
discussion in the senate during the day.
Senator Gray resumed his speech in
support of the presidents policy and re-

lists were dependent ON the United States
minister and the United States forces
for support of their movement and that
thereafter the provisional government
depended absolutely upon the United
States forces and the flag for protection
and for the maintenance of the govern
ment they had established. The
full significance of the present
Hawaiian situation came out
at the close of the senator's speech,
when in a colloquy with Senator Teller,
he admitted that, as member of the
foreign relations committee, he under
stood the efforts of the president, moral
or diplomatic, to restore the queen were
at an end, and that the present minis .er
to Hawaii had no directions to pursue
further diplomatic negotiations to that
end.

BULLETS FOR TWO.
A Wealthy St Louis Physician

THE WOMAN Is STILL ALIVE.
No Cause Known For the Terrible
Act-The Murderer in
Jail.

ST.. LOUIS, Feb. 14.-Dr. Duestrow of
1924 South Compton avenue walked
into the Reservoir police station shortly
before p. m. and surrendered himself,
stating that he had accidentally shot his
wife. He refused to make any further
statement concerning the shooting or to
60 into any details further than to say
tat it was accidental. Duestrow was
locked up and police officer was sent
to investigate the affair. Arriving at
the house it was found that their s.
year-old child was dead, with bullet
in its heart and one in its head. The
mother had received two bullets in her
head and was unconscious. Her re-
covery is impossible, SO the physicians
say. The exact reason Duestrow had
for committing the deed is not known,
but 1t is said that for some time past he
Had Not Been Living Happily
with his wife. From wound on the
prisoners head it is thought that he at
tempted to kill himself after shooting
the other members of his family
About o'clock he was seen to drive up
to his residence accompanied by man.
Soon after entering the house shots were
heard and Duestrow appeared with his
face covered with blood. He imme-
diately drove to the police station and
gave himself up. He is thought to be
either feigning insanity or suffering
from the effects Of protracted spree.
It is surmised that young Duestrow,
who had been separated from his wife,
entered the house with the intention Of
taking away the child, and, meeting
with opposition, shot both it and its
mother. The shooting caused sensa-
ton, as the persons concerned are veal
thy and very prominent in society here.
DR.. Duestrow is son of the late Louis
Duestrow, the Granite Mountain mil
liOnaire. and is worth S1 900 900 himself.

AFTER JUDGE JENKINS.

The House Judiciary Committee Favors an
Investigation.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The house
committee on judiciary voted in favor
OF reporting to the house a resolution
for an investigation into the course of
District Judge Jenkins in restraining
employees of the Northern Pacific rail
road from quitting work The vote was
to 6. Senator Villas of Wisconsin ap-
peared before the committee and urged
that the question was of such import
ance that it could not be voted Oil until
counsel had been heard. In accord with
this suggestion, motion was made to post
pone the vote until next Monday, and in
the meantime, hear counsel This Was
voted down ny seven to six, and the res
olution was then agreed ON to be re-
ported at once. Had the proposition to
hear counse prevailed, Colonel Robert
Ingersoll would probably have appeared
for the labor interest and several prom
inent lawyers for the other side. The
resolution reported is substitute for
the one introduced by Representative
McGann, but differs little from that or
iginally Presented. It authorizes the
Judiciary committee to proceed on the
investigation into Judge Jenkins course
Representative Boatner will present
the resolution to the house. It was
thought best by the subcommittee to
present substitute for the McGann res
olution, because that resolution in It's
preamble seemed to them to assume
that Judge Jenkins action had been
wrongful. The committee did not want
to take sides in advance Of the investiga-
ton. The members of the sub-commit-
tee were agreed that an investigation
would be desirable.

ON THE INCREASE.

Internal Revenue Receipts Picking Up
Wonderfully.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE receipts
from internal revenue during the first
10 days of the present month aggregated
$5,O79, ,881, as against $4,814,074 during
the corresponding period last year, a
gain of 1864, 407. This tremendous in
crease is regarded by treasury officials
as a sure sign of returning business
activity. The significance of it will be
understood when it is known that since
the beginning of the fiscal year the re-
ceipts from internal revenue had con-
stantly declined month by month, until
the aggregate receipts for the half year
were fully $12, 900, 900 less than for the
corresponding period in 1893.
