Our country is comparatively new
one, with population increasing rapidly,
by immigration as well as by natural re-
sources. Shall our vast interests be
crippled by meagre medium OF ex-
change? The natural basis for medium
of exchange is population and wealth and
not diamonds. rubies, gold or silver.
Population with wealth in its various
forms, is the source of need OF q medium
of exchange, and should be the basis OF
supply. Considering the vast material
wealth Of this country, many think that
$50 per capita is the amount required for
the best results.

CLEVELAND'S MESSAGE.
1t VIII Lay the Blame All Upon
Minister Willis.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Tribune's
Washington special says: The eagerly ex-
pected dispatches from Minister Willis
arrived here late last night and were
transmitted to the State Department TO-
day. The President aud Gresham did not
feel quite equal, however, to the task of
squaring a. sight the latest news with their
previous assurances to Congress and the
country, and breathing spell of twenty
four hours was taken to reconcile, if posi-
BILE, the unexpected action of the admins
tration's agent in Hawaii with the pro-
gramme of surrender and apology sent to
Co ngress more than three weeks ago. l.
was announced late this afternoon that
the message of attempted exculpation
would go TO Congress tomorrow, and that
1t would be accompanied by all the newly
arrived dispatches from Hon olulu.
The official news sent by Willis is under
stood to confirm completely the full re-
ports telegraphed from Victoria on Tues
day and the sole element of novelty to
Congress is the defense which the Presi-
dent is expected to make of his derelic-
tion in not instructing Minister Willis to
apDrise the Queen that her original re-
fusal of the conditions of restoration
ended the whole matter, thus avoiding
the unpleasant consequences which have
followed from an effort to carry the
monarchlal programme through to its
logical and proper end.

BLOUNT'S STORY.
Cleveland's Emissary Defends the
Lowering of the Flag,

WASHINGTON. Jan. IL - Ex-Commis-
siOner Blount this morning was before the
Senate committee investigating the rela-
tions of this country with Hawaii under
the resolution of Senator Morgan.
The efforts OF the committee were
directed briefly TO securing an explanation
from BlouDt Of his various acts while In
Honolulu. He told briefly of his appoint
ment by the President as special COM
missioner; said he considered the ap-
Dointment within the bounds OF propriety
and precedent; the trip TO the islapds
on the revenue cutter Rush and the land
ing in Honolulu on March 90 Blount's
reception by the people on both sides of
the question was passed over almost with
out mention, as was the fact that both
anneXatOnists and royalists were. appar-
emily, exceedingly anxious to make his
stay as pleasant as possible. The decision
to have the American ensign taken down
and the American soldiers returned to the
man-of-war was next revived. Blount
said he found the islands and the Govern
ment entirely under the control Or protec-
tion Of the United States troops. The
American flag foated over the Govern
ment building in which the officers of the
iOflolOudl UOFbTOuelG cOluucLeQ DuSl-
ness. Everywhere was noticed the influ-
ence OF this country upon the people of the
Islands. 1t was evident, BIount said, that
ii would be difficult to secure an impartial
account or an opinion uniufuenced by the
surroundings as long as this state of
affairs continued. Consequently he de-
cided on the 31st Of MarcD, two DAYS after
his arrival, in accordance with the spirit
of his Instructions and in the interest of
fair play, that the flag should. be taken
down and the American troops removed.
Of this decision he informed President
Dole, and on the following day, the 1st of
April, he ended the temporary protectorate
and had the flag lowered. This proceed
inG be defended as within The scope of his
mission and as entirely proper proceed
ing under the circumstances. Subsequent
events, he said, proved that the presence
of American troops was not necessary to
preserve order or to protect the life and
property either of Americans or of natives.
Blount contended that his report was
impartial and his investigation made with
out prejudice or favor. He stated that he
took testimony in his own way and acted
upon his own judgment He had been
selected TO make an examination and had
been given entire authority to c0nductit in

Governor Mitchell Did Not Deal

HE ASKED FOR A TEST CASE

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 1.-THE Du-
val Club to-day made another statement
to the public, the first part of which is de-
voted to the history OF the Duvai Club
and the proposed Corbett- Mitchell glove
contest. The new and interesting part of
the statement embOdies letter from Bow
den to the Governor. which recalls to his
memory that during the conference at
Tallahassee the Governor advised the club
people to bring any legal proceedings that
would convince him that the contes was
not Illegal, and denies any collusion be-
tween the club and local law officers in
having Corbett and Mitchell arrested in
order TO make up a test case. The letter
states that the club does not propose to
have prizefght. only scientific glove
contest pure and simple.
The statement continues: "While this
letter was il transit the County Solicitor
took advantage Of our liberty of not push
ing the habeas corpus proceedings and
nOlle pressed the case against Corbett and
Mitchell, thus depriving us of the adjudi-
cation of the highest court open to US.
Thereupon we sent telegram TO the Gov
ernOr, asking him to submit the matter as
he promised our representative, to the
Supreme Court, which he refused to do.
The club then made an announcement
that the fight would come off, the Cover
nor to the contrary Notwithstanding"
ST. AUGUSTINE. Fla, Jan. 1.-THE re-
port was current to- day that Mitchell ex-
pressed some DOUBT about the $50, 900 stake

he weighed 175 pounds, and when | was

UNDER A NEW REGIME
Iowa Passes Once More Into the
Hands of Republicans.
The New Governor Touches Upon
National Issues in His Inaug-
uraI Address.

DEs MONIES. Iowa. Jan. 1.-THE day
for the inauguration of Governor Frank l..
Jackson opened bright and clear. The
ceremonies took place in the rotunda of
the Capitol building It was at first pro-
posed to make it marked demonstration
of rejoicing by the Republicans, in honor
of that party's return to executive power
In the State. but on account of Governor
Boies' recent bereavement in the loss of
his daughter Jessie it was decided, at the
request of the incoming Governor, to dis
pense with the gala features. The incom-
ing trains, however, brought great crowds
to witness the Inauguration. The pro-
cesson from the Sayery House to the Cap
itol consisted of the military escort and
officials in carriages.
In the course of his address Governor
Jackson touched on a number of national
topics. He declared that the stability and
perpetuity of the republic depended on the
intelligence of its common people. To this
end the laGorer must have wages enough
to enable him to educate his children. This
he could not do under the foreign wage
scale. On this basis he argued in favor of
a protective tariff. Toucbing the money
of the country. he made an argument in
favor of bimetalllsm. On the question of
prohibition, he said the operation OF the
laws Of the State showed prohibition was
practicable and desirable in some counties
in the State while in others it was failure.
In the latter places he thought provision
sheuld be made for the regulation and
diminutor of the evils of the LIQUOR traffic.

INERADICABLE HOSTILITY.
The Democrats of the South Op-
posed to National Power.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IL. - Chandler.
Hoar, Mite hell and Higgins. constituting
the Republican minority of the Senate on
the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tiOns, presented a report to the Senate on
the bill TO repeal the Federal election
laws late this afternoon. The report says
it is proposed to overthrow all existing
provisions of national legislation for secur-
ing honesty in elections for mem bers of
the national House of Representatives.
These provisions were enacted largely for
the security of elections in the Northern
cities. The laws now in force were passed
chiefly IN consequence of frauds and
crimes which had been committed by the
Democratic party 10 the city of New York
under the leadership of Tweed and his as
socistes. and those laws commended them
selves alike to his Republican opponents
and TO many respectable and judicious
Democrats. The report reviews the cir
cumstances which led to the enactment of
the reconstruction legislation, the civil
rights bill and the election laws at great
length. The passage of the bill. it is said,
will convey TO the people of the country
this notice: ''The Dem ocratic marty, con-
trolled by the States of the Solid South,
has an ineradicable hostility to national
mower"

SHROUDED IN MYSTERY.
st. Louis Has a Case That No Man
Can UnraVeI.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 11-The police have
suddenly been confronted by one of the
most mysterious cases they ever tried TO
solve. This morning Steve K. Wilsko ap-
piled at a bOarding-place and engaged a
room for week, paying in advance. He
then left the house, returning late this
afternoon and going to a room on the same
floor occupied by Josie Stevenson. Late
tonight man called at the house and
asked to see Miss Stevenson. The land
lady found her room door open and Miss
Stevenson lying dead on the floor with
bullet hole through the forehead. Wisko
was on the bed shot twice through the
heart. Between the two on the floor was
revolver with all five chambers empty
The first theory was murder followed by
suicide. but after an examination of the
room and the wounds the police say that
neither of the dead persons could have
fired the fatal shots. Two additional shots
from the revolver were fired at the man,
but missed.
Although several persons were In the
house no one heard the shooting or any
unusual noise. The man who called for
Miss Stevenson has disappeared and can
not be found, but his name has been ascer-
tanned to be II. o. Mason. Nothing is
known of Wjlsko and but little of Miss
Stevenson.
The whole affair is shrouded in m ystery,
and much of sen sati0nal nature is ex-
Dected in the disentanglement.

cret session at noon. The principal ques-
tions considered related TO finances and

ters. Republican politicians of all degrees

BETTER THAN WAITE.
A Resolution the Colorado Assem-

In the Matter of Language the Gov
ernor Has His Own Peculiar
Privileges.

DENVER, Colo. Jan. 1.-THE Senate
to-day received the majority report of
the special committee appointed to con-
slider the Governors message. The report
declared that there was no occasion for
the extraordinary session and recom-
mended adjournment tomorrow. In re-
gard to the proposition to have Colorado
silver bullion coined into Mexican dollars,
the committee stated that it was compelled
to recognize the sovereign authority of the
United States in the issuance of all coin
and that the Governors suggestion was
absolutely impractcable. A minority re-
port will be presented, but the majority
report will be adopted.
The House. from present indications,
will not agree to immediate adjournment
and there will probably be deadlock
until one gives up the fight. In the House
to-day the member from Ell Paso County
created a sensation by introducing the fol-
lowing resolution:

Baldwin replied. but the resolution was
not received. nevertheless.
The Republican members of the House
beld another caucus tonight to discuss
the question of Immediate adjournment.
The determined stand taken by the Senate
and the potent influences brought to bear
by party leaders have changed the opinion
of some of the Republicans in regard to
the wisdom Of continuing the session. and
the indications late tonight are that the
Legislature will adjourn sine die to-
morrow or at latest on Saturday.
Governor Waite to-day received this dis
patch from Senator Stewart:

State may make foreign coin legal tender,
