THAT HAWAIIAN REBELLION.
Brought Up i'm Congress 1t Causes q Couple
of Lively incidents.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.-The only addi-
in two telegrams-one from Minister
Willis simply giving the fact that the in
sUrrection had broken out and been prac-
tically quelled anS the other to Hawaiian
Minister Thurstor. from the Dole govern
lncnt announcing the same thing. The
news caused some congressman to become
excited and in the senate Frye, as soon
as the body was called to order, pre-
sented "A resolution expressing the pro-
found 'indignation'' with which the sem
ate heard of the efforts to restore the de-
posed queen TO the throne of Hawaii, and
expressing as the sense of the senate that
the United States government should at
once dispatch warships to the islands.
Hill suggested that the word 'indigna-
ton" was too strong, and thought pro
found regret" was sufficient.
''On the contrary" declared Frye with
great earnestness, II do not believe pro-
found Indignation sufficiently expressive
of my own feelings or the feelings of the
American people"
Nor the feelings of the senator from
New York" inter;ected Chandler, sarcas-
ticllly.
Hill hesitated only a moment at the inter
ruption and then added: Il at least hope
that the senator from New Hampshire
Chandler will concedc to me the guardi-
anship of my OWN feelings"

ton of the resolutions by George and

How Elijah Robinson Gathered in the
Shining Shelels.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 2l.-Postoffice In
spectors Leatherman and Fleming of
Washington arrested Elijah Robinson on
the charge of using the mails for fraudu-
lent purposes. Robinson publishes what
he calls The Ladies' Monthly Gem. He
advertised it throughout the country and
sent it to the addresses of women he could
find. 1t contained a very simple rebus,
and promised a gold watch to the writers
of the two first letters received by The
Gem each day containing the correct So
luton. The solution being sent in, the
author was requested to forward 50. 10 for
packing and express charges. The in
spectors say they can prove that the
watches then sent out were hollow, open
face paper dial toys, worth less than 20
cents each. All of Robinsons mail, of
which there is great mass every day, is
being held.

THE LOTTERY IN TIE MAILS.
Some Rulings of the Postofiice Department
Making Fine Distinctions.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. .l.-Assistant At
torrey General Thomas, of the postofficc
department, has ruled in connection with
newspaper lottery notices that it is i'm
material whether the result of lottery
drawing is published as news without pay
or as an advertisement. Newspapers con.
tanning the result of the awarding of such
prizes ar non-mailable. The only ex-
ceptions made are in the cases of news
papers publishing such matter in order ID
expose the concerns.
The department also decides that the
awarding OF prize to the person guessing
pcarest the number of seeds in "A water
mclon would be lottery, though the
guessing of the weight of "a melon would
not constitute a lottery if. the guesses were
made after the melon had been lifted.

in inquisition upon the body of Joseph
Nance, murdered at Cowden, has rendered
a verdict finding that Nance was killed

which the returning of the verdict was
made was from Mrs. Severc's testimony.
She is the wife 81 Jesse Severe and
daughter of Nance. Nance was foully as

TARIFF ELOQUENCE
The House Will indulge in Some
Pretty Soon.
WILSON NOT UNEASY AS ToREvENUE

VIII ne Abundant When the New Law
Gets into Complete Action-The Sugar
D;nerential Repeal and the Beer Tax
Bills What VIII Bring on Tariff Debate
Matter for Carlisle to Decide.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.-A wide range
Of tariff debate is expected in the house
shortly. Thus far the tariff discussion
has been confined to the senate, where
Senator Hills proposed amendment to
the income tax section brought out sew
eral speeches urging the grave emergency
arising from the lack of revenue under
the new law. This view is not shared by
Mr.. Wilson ard his ways and means
associates of the house. They feel that
there is much misapL -ehension as to the
seriousness OF the revenue condition. Mr..
Wilson has told his associates on the
committee that the revenues requisite
for the government will undoubtedly be
sufficient when the new Law is fully in
operation.
An opportunity to present the house
view of the subject will be given when
Mr.. Wilson reports the bill taking off the
lilo of cent differcntial on sugar coming
from foreign countries paying an export
bounty. The committee has already au-
thorizcd favorable report, which, it is
expected, will be presented early next
week, and the bill be made up soon there
after. Reports from the ways and mean;
committee are privileged, SO that Mr. Will
son can secure rccognitian at any time
The action of the committee upon the
bill to increase the tax on beer will de-
pend largely upon Secretary Cariislc's
opinion of the needs of the treasury. Rep
rcsentative McNIiliiE, chairman of the
subcommittee To which the bill was re-
ferred, was at the house. after a few DAYS
absence on account of illness. He said he
intended to see Mr.. Carlisle soon and talk
with him about the matter.
The question whether taxes would be
placed upon any article not now taxed, or
whether they will be increased on any ar
ticle already taxed" said Mr.. NcMillin,
depends partly upon Secretary Carlislc's
view rs to whether the decrease in the
revenues, which it is evident this year
will witness, will reach point where
any additional steps for raising revenues
are unnecessary"
