ers of the recent abortive revolt have

martialed. Three of them plead guilty

Britain and the United States to secure
her release.

BRITISH PARLIAMENT.
Address of Lord Rosebery on the Queen

Address of Lord Rosebery on the Queens
Speech.
LONDON, uFeb. EN- the house of
lords Lord Rosebery, referring
to the queens speech, said the govern
ment was able to act in the Armenian
matter with the cordial acquiescence of
France, Russia and Italy. Events
would show that these powers were
able to watch the inquiry Of the
Turkish commission and ascertain the
truth. The reductions of crime in
Ireland was certainly due to John
Morley's wise and firm administration,
and to hope that Ireland would have
legislature for the management of Irish
concerns was consistent with the main
tenance of imperial rule. Referring
to the complaint of Salisbury that the
question of the house of lords was not
referred 70 in the queens speech, Rose
berry adhered to what he had already
said, that the relations between the
the future of the country, and that in
the opinion of the government the
constitutional method of dealing with
the situation was by resolution which
it was not necessary or expedient to
introduce Immediately, as it must
almost necessarily be followed by the
of parliament, for which
he, the speaker, did not see any imme
date necessity

| SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-THE steamer
Australia has arrived from Honolulu,
! bringing news of the arrest of over
three hundred persons who participated
in the late rebellion. A number have
already been convicted. One witness
said that Seward, one of the revolu-
tionlsts. told him that the queen had
Spreclsels, who would furnish the
| necessary funds. There will be no
difficulty in convicting all the pris-
oners. The queen has written Presi-
dent Dole as follows:
do hereby fully and unequivocally
admit and declare that the government
of the republic of Hawaii is the only
that the late Hawaiian monarchy is
finally and forever ended, as no longer
of any legal or actual validity. force or
effect whatsoever; and do hereby alb
solve all persons whomsoever. whether
in the Hawaiian islands or elsewhere,
from all or any manner of allegiance
or official obligation or duty to the
command of my heirs and successors
forever; and hereby declare to all
such persons in sthe Hawaiian islands
that consider them bound in duty
and honor henceforth to support and
sustain the government of Hawaii
The queen makes a plea for those
who took part in the rebellion, and ex-
presses a desire to live in absolute
privacy henceforth The document
includes copy of the oath Of al
legiance to the republic taken by her,
and declares her act was without sug-
gestion or influence from the republic.
1t is not believed the queen is sincere
in her abdication; that it is merely
ruse to secure clemeney when she APP

FINANCIAL. REFORM.
A Republican Plan Introduced by Tom
ReeC.

I INcct.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.--The calcula-
tions of the supporters and opponents
of the new administration financial
bill have been upset by the intersection
| of new feature into the campaign.
Reed, repub hcan leader, has brought
| forward new plan, for which he is
| endeavoring to enlist the entire
strength of his party, and which he
will offer as a substitute for the
administration scheme, if he thinks
the plan can command sufficient sup
port to make it a factor in the fight
There are but two sections to the Reed
plan in the form in which hesupmitted
it to his colleagues. The first proposes
to restrict the law of 1875. which
authorizes the secretary of the treasury
to issue bonds to redeem greenbaclls,
to per cent bonds. The second
section authorizes the secretary of the
treasury, when there is deficit, to
issue certificates of Indebtedness to pay
current expenses, the certificates to
be in sums of $25, $50 and 500, and
any multiple thereof, bearing interest
at per cent and payable in coin. The
BILL as Reed explained, is but tenn
porary expedient to tide over the
present distress The substitution of
coin for the gold provisions of the
administration plan is expected to win
for it the liberation, if not the support,
of the free silver men, who bitterly
oppose all propositions to discriminate
by a stipulation in any bill in favor OF
gold Its comparative simplicity, it is
expected, will commend the bill to the
house in preference to more complex
plans. Reeds plan is to offer the bill
as substitute for the administration
bill, and polling the solid republican
vote, while the democrats are divided
on the administration BILL make it the
most formidable proposition in the
field, and perhaps induce the dem
ccratic opponents of the administration
bill to rally to its support. Chairman
Springer and his colleagues counted on
most of the republican votes for the
administration bill and prophesied that
it would poll about the same support
as that given to the repeal of the
purchasing clause of the Sherman act.
Accordingly Reeds move overturns
their calculations.

school purposes. Lyon county had not
a foot of swamps. but the supervisors
wanted swamp lands, and went into
court to prove that the commission had
not treated them right. They made 1t
a Doodle deal and gave $4,000 to one
attorney to start the proceedings, as
much to another to prepare for the
trial. and another like sum to parties
who got evidence. They lavished
money on every hand, and on this
pretext they paid bills in bonds, and
these steals, followed by others and
years of extravaganza before the
county began to be populated, gave 1t
a debt of Sao5, 900, which in 1885 was
funded. There had been litigation
over some of the earlier issues OF bonds,
but they We're refunded. Then the
citizens began hard fight They had

things he says: '.Armenians in Athens

persons put the number at twenty-five
villages and from 1000 to 5000 persons
killed. The exact number will never
with the work of the soldiers that he
sent thanks and decorations to the
officers and forwarded flags to be
presented to the regiments engaged in
the awful hatchery. The flags are not
yet handed to the regiments. 1t is
thought the presentation will be
deferred until the excitement over the
affair has subsidized The English
delegate on the Turkish commission of
inquiry might see these flags if he
went at it in the right way. AS for the
Turkish commission, it is such d fraud
that it is a waste of breath to talk
about it. What the European res
idents of Constantinople are really
looking forward to with confidence is
an investigation of the whole affair by
an European commission. They
believe the Turkish commission will
bring in such an unsatisfactory report
that the Christian nations will appoint
a commission and make an investiga-
ton whether the Turks like it or not.
This is what it must come to in the
end, for no matter what reforms the
sultan may promise, the Armenian
agitation will continue until the entire
veSed question is passed upon by the
rest of the world"
