exerting every influence to aid in making
this the headquarters Of the most noto-
riously dishonest ard demoralizing form of
sport, the sharps took their eyes off New
Jersey. And now the last of their hopes in
that region has apparently been crushed
by decision of the New Jersey supreme
court At its last session the state legis-
lature was crowded into passing a nine
months racing law. by the terms of

associates of the so-called Ivy City Club
might provide the pool rooms with gam
bling material from March l to November

this city the iniqLity that not even a New
Jersey legislature OF their own stripe would
give them, the gambling crowd had about
settled down to wait for the coming of
March when the news arrived that the
New Jersey supreme court had declared
the nfne-mopths law institutional The

When Minister Willis was sent to repre-
sent the United States at Hawaii there was
general commentator as to the appoint
merit. for it was current and apparently
well-founded opinion that Mr.. Willis was
eminently fitted to fill a very ticklish diplo-
matte position. The long delay which pre-
ceded action by Willis seemed to corrobo-
rate the good opinion which was so freely
expressed and there were many democrats
who declared that the Kentuckian had
surely saved the administration from EN-
barrassment of the most serious sort. But
the news from Hawaii throws new light
on Mr.. Willis and sharply outlines some ex-
tremely unpleasant features. Obedient,
doubtless. to some of the secret instructions
which the administration properly feared
to put in writing. Minister Willis held over
the heads of the provisional government
the threat of forcible restoration of Lii
uokalani by the United States forces at
Honolulu The published instructions de-
clare that Minister Willis was not empow-
cred to use force. II the verbal instruc-
tions were to the same effect then Mr.. Will
lis behavior in leading the provisional gov
eminent to believe that he had authority to
make war was deception for which no
apology or explanation that could possibly
be constructed can avail. II he was pro-
ceeding in accord with the whispered in
structions, then the obloquy is Mr.. Cleve-
lands. Which is the guilty one-master or
servant?
1t is refreshing to realize that the Amer
lean naval officers on duty were entirely
out of sympathy with the policy of degra-
dalton which MIR. Willis has so assiduously
but unsuccessfully endeavored to work to
a conclusion that would satisfy the Presi-
dent. OF course those officers would not
have disobeyed an order from Admiral IT.
win-even though IL meant nothing less
than the slaughter of Americans-but it is
said that they had agreed to demand that
any command which involved the firing up
on men of their own blood be given in
writing and that before executing it they
would have made vigorous but respectful
protest. After that they intended to obey
the transmitted dictum of President Cleve-
lands diplomatic representative. If there
has been anything creditable in the deal
ings of the administration with the recog-
nized government of Hawaii the incident
has not yet been made public.

In the Hawaiian affair this republic Is he
coming more and more paIpably the CATS
paw Of British diplomacy. The solution Of
the mystery of Cleveland's crusade for the
reinstatement of the ex-queen. outside of
any disposition which may have existed in
pursuance of Mr.. Blount's so-called "corn-
mon sense diplomacy" to reverse everything
zone oy the preceding administration, is
perhaps a sentimental one. IL is understood
tnat when the Princess Kaiulani ON her
WISH to Washington came to see the presi-
oentai household under British auspices she
made very favorable impression upon the
PRESIDENT and Mrs. Cleveland and no doubt
ENLISTED their sympathies very warmly i'm
her BEHALF 1t is quite likely that the IN
oertaking to restore Queen Lii was entered
upon by the President only with the idea
that the ex-queen. who is of a short-lived
FAMILY and race and who is likely to speed
her end by her dissolute habits. would soon
rass away and that then the pleasing and
respectable princess would come to tn,
throne and would make a c-editable ru,er
Tor Hawaii This was Just what British
diplomacy was aiming at in sending her tn
Cleveland under the auspices of Davies the
British diplomatic agent. 1t makes no diff
ference TO England whether Queen Lii vino
mas been concerned in all the intriSues of
the English party in Honolulu against
American interests is reinstated, or whether
the Princes kaiulani who has been educated
In England and has been continuously in the
hands Of the English diplomatic corps
should occupy the throne. That the Presi-
dent fell into the trap set for him by the
BRUSH Is shown by every Indication The
nrst intimation OF the restoration policy

stead of Washington or Honolulu was the
real center of negotiations. The British
newspapers have in numerous instances re-
ferred to the alliance between Uncle Sam
and John Bull in bolstering UP the Ha-
waiian monarchy. The Pail Mall Gazette
said recently:
THE announcement concerning Hawaii
contained in President Cleveland's message
has set the provisional government by the
ears. Having got rid of Queen Liliuoka-
lani. they refuse to have her back, and are
preparing for armed resistance. All this
threat of resistance need not alarm us or
Mr.. Cleveland, especially as we now have q
cruiser OF the islands"
That the English cruiser was believed and
believed itself to be at Honolulu to cooper
ate with the American navy in overthrow
ing American and civilized control and
American business interests and influence
In Hawaii in order to re-establish a bar
barous, tdolatrous pro-English monarchy,
is indicated by the English declarations and
acts at Honolulu. as well as by all the other
Information from the Islands. The N. Y.
Worlds correspondent says on the authority
Of officers Of the British gunboat Champion
and Of the Philadelphia and Adams that on
the morning Of the 10th ''the marines Of all
the warships in the harbor, including the
British and Japanese. were ready to land to
restore the queen" The Worlds correspon-
dent also says:
There is a bitter feeling in the provis-
fonal government against the British min
lister. Mr. Wodehouse. They accuse him Of
intriguing, first, to secure the restoration OF
the queen. and IL that should fail. to secure
the annexation Of the islands by Great
Britain"
There Is some danger that Great Britain
having used Mr.. Cleveland as far as the
cOn q M nd t{v,o
public will permit him to be used may dis
card him as an instrument of its diplomacy
and go ahead now without him. Suppose
that the United States marines cannot with
out consent Of Congress land at Honolulu
slaughter the American and civilized ele-
ment of the population, and restore the cor
rupt queen, what Is there to prevent the
British and Japanese marines from per-
forming this work, relieving their ally in
spirit Of this portion Of the common task :?
What could Mr.. Cleveland say in opposition
to this course? He takes such a view of
his moral obligations that this unholy alli-
ance has been formed and has followed its
logical course until this is the only step re-
naming to be taken. How can he remons-
trate with his allies for doing for him that
which he has virtually announced ought to
be done by himself, but which the American
constitution prevents him from doing?
Notice should be given to Great Britain in
some way which would prevent any posi-
bility of misunderstanding that John Bulls
secret alliance to restore a pro-English
Queen and to crush American interests and
aspirations in Hawaii is with Mr.. Cleveland
and not with Uncle Sam, and that the peo-
pie of this republic will never permit that
outrage to be perpetrated, either by En-
gland alone or by England and Mr. Cleve-
land in combination.

ORDERS ISSUED TO COIN SILVER.
MINIS ut San Frsncisco and Now Orleans to

Begin making silver DOiiarSs
WASHINGTON, July 10.-Mr. Preston,
the director of the mint, by direction Of
the secretary Of the treasury, has issued
orders to mint authorities at San Fran
$N,and New Orleans to begin at once
Image of silver dollars and during
Y the present month to coin mp to the ordi-
nary capacities Of the mints. The silver
to BIO first coined will be blanks and in
gots, Of which there is sufficient to coin
about 81, 5UO, 100 at these two minis and
at Philadelphia. As soon as this supply
Is exhausted work probably will begin
on the silver bars of which there is q
q years supply at San Francisco and New
Orleans, and probably five years. supply
at Philadelphia. SO far as can be learned
It is not the intention or the purpose Of
the government to extend the coinage Of
the seigniorags beyond q few million,
but II Is stated that after coming what
gold may be necessary and recoining the
Abraded fractional silver, each Of the
three minis will probably be worked at
their normal capacity on silver dollars
for the next several months at least and
presumably to the end of the present year.

STRIKE UNITED THE RAILWAYS.
Scheme to Organize All the Western Roads
Into One Association.

Into One Association.
CHICAGO, July 19.-The great strike Is
likely to have the effect Of uniting the
railways, particularly those Of the west,
In q closer union than they have ever
bad up to the present. The General
Managers association handled the strike
In . manner so satisfactory to all the
roads concerned that they have begun to
ask why the same spirit Of harmony
which enabled them to make such a fight
In dealing with the strikers could not be
utilized to great advantage In traffic
matters. There IL the strongest kind Of
feeling that all roads should be conoen-
trated In an effort TO maintain rates and
q far as possible diminish expenses. The
thing is largely In the embryo yet, but
several schemes have already been pro-
posed, the principal one of which is that
oil the roads west of the Missouri river
shall be formed in an association similar
to the Western Passenger association,
but at the same time entirely independ-
ent Of that body, but working in har-
mony with IL. This would mean that
the Union Pacific and the Southern Pa
cific would be members Of the associa-
ton west of the river, while the Atchison
would be a member of both associations.
