lous and Denounces Morrow.

San Francisco, Aug. 5.-The Chronicle
this morning adds another chapter of nine
columns to its Hawaiian filibustertng
story of yesterday, giving further details
of the alleged plot. Charles Creighton,
who was assistant attorDey-general under
the monarchy In Hawaii, said:
II am one OF the exiles, and would E
know If any such scheme as that detected
by the man who calls himself Morrow
had the sanction of Hawaiians opposed
to the Dole government. never heard OF
Morrow"
Creighton said that the desire for rev.
olutiou is expressed only by those who are
aggrieved at the Dole government, and
those who hope il the uprising should be
successful to profit financially.
"Exiles here" he said, "are amused
a1 most of the stories about filibusteriug
expeditions"
Volney Ashford, who was named as the
man to lead the expedition, said:
''If 1 was to be the leader, it is not likely
that would say so, and II was not con-
cerned in this movement, it would be hardly
worth while foE me to talk about it. There
has been SO little in the stories about fill
clustering expeditions, which have ap-
peared in the last three months, that I
suppose this one will turn out to be like
all the rest. None Of the filibustering
expeditions which have been VI rit ten

Morrow before, nor of his alleged scheme
to organize a filibustering expedition to
overthrow the Dole government. Fur
thermore, take no stock in it.
"As matter of fact, am inclined to
think that Morrow is simply a confidence
man who has hit upon this expedient as O
clever way of making few dollars. He
was to collect SIG from each OF the 200
or more adventurers, and that would have

THEY KNEW GOOD CHECKS

SECURED BUT LITTLE BOOTY
Northwestern and Mutual Insurance
Company and Real Estate Dealer
Gadsby Losers by a Midnight Rob-
bery-It Was an Incomplete Job.
Mnrauders Were Scared Off.

A bold but only partially successful rob-
berry was perpetrated at No. 1902 F street
last night.
The offices of the Northwestern and Mu-
tual Reserve Insurance Companies and
that of j. Eakin Gadsby, real estate, which
are located in the building, were entered
and a small amount Of booty secured.
Early this morning when the 1anitor of
the building entered the office Of the Mu-
tual Reserve Company, which is located on
the second floor, he was surprised 10 find
the door open, showing evidence of having
been forced. The interior of the office
also presented scene of disorder. Checks
arc other papers were scattered over the
floor, and other evidences Of disarrange-
ment were noticeable. An examination
disclosed the fact that the money drawer
had been tampered with.
He at once reported the case to a po-
lice officer, who went with him to the
other offices in the building, which all
showed signs of having been entered dur
Ing the night.
Mrs. Herring, the cashier of the Mutual
Reserve Company, soon came in, and was
E1ade acquainted with the facts.
When seen by a Times reporter she
said she did not think the company's loss
would be very great, jnasmuch as the burg
lars only succeeded in getting away with
the small amount of cash which was in the
drawer, making no attempt to enter the
safe.
"Our local manager, Mr.. VIM. L. Belt
Ter, was out of the city on Saturday"

in on that day was in checks did not

checks were negotiable, the robbers did

A curious social dilemma confronts Sir
Henry Irving. There is an official ban on
his profession, and histr.onic artists are
not eligible for court levees. Irving's son,
II. B. Irving, has lately deserted the bar
for the stage, and his name has been wiped
off the court chamberlain's list. AS
barrister he always received court invi-
tations. Irving, because he has been
knighted, circumvents this official ban
and, of course, is now persona grata at
court. 1t is family see-saw

Mental Bread on the Waters.

A workman near Lewiston, Me-, the
other day, found a tin can with a copy of
Paradise Lost" sealed up in it. 1t created
great curiosity among the people along
the river front. until some one explained
that in a certain town up river lived an
old tinsmith OF n literary turn of mind, who,
each year, soldiers up books in cans and
throws them into the river, with the hope
that they will float out to the people in the
islands or be picked up by sailors, and from
their peculiar way Of reaching them will
be read with curiosity and do some good. :.

There is diverting discussion, con =
Quoted with the greatest gravity, in the
Paris press about the conduct of the Due
dOrleans at tile Due d'Aosta's wedding
Some Orleanists have reproached the
duke with the etiquette he adopted at the
wedding meal. He ate at a separa e
table with a few friends, the rest of the
company being relegated to an adjoining
room. He had nineteen courses aud the
adjoining room had only fifteen. He
gave his few friends rose sorbet and the
adjoining room had none. So the Orleanist
cause is threatened with disruption, all
on account Of the rose sorbet. Evidently
some royalists In France are epicures
first and Orleanists aftcrwardss The idea
of political party being endan gered by
dispute about rose sorbet could only arise
in a nation SO sigually destitute OF Ger
tain kinds of humor as the French.
There has been q prodigious hurly.
burly about certain presentations at the
recent drawing room, some of which are
understood to have been privately can
celed. When there are upward of 300 pre-
seutations in season 1t is no wonder that
MISTAKES" should occur, but in these
days 1t Is no sort Of advantage to go to
court nor is particle of distinction gained
by doing SO. The idea that anything is now
achieved by attendance at either a levee
or drawing room can only linger in
the minds OF every credulous person or
among those who are entirely unso-
phisticated. No Inquiries of any sort OF
kind are now made by the court officials
respecting the horde of unknown whose
names are sent in before every drawing
room or ievee. The person who undertakes
the presentation is held responsible il any

Tenders are forbidden to appear at court
for year or two, while In flagrant cases
they are permanently excluded.
The final proceedings of the late parlia-
meut led to some lively incidents in the
House OF Lords. As there are no rules Of
procedure in. that assembly any peer says
what he pleases whenever he chooses.
The Duke of Argyll made an onslaught
on Lord Rosebery, who happened to be alb
sent. Next day Lord Rosebery reap
peared and told the Duke of Argyll that
he cared no more for the ducal hostility
than the life guardsnian In the anecdote
cared for his diminutive wife's personal
violence-''it pleases her and don't hurt l."
After this the Duke of Argyll made au-
other speech, consisting mainly, as Lord
Rosebery suggested, of matter left over
from the previous harangue. The duke
was very angry with the Liberal party and
said they ought to be called the '.Slipperar'
party. Lord Rosebery asked II this were
English and the duke retorted that 1t was
good enough English for the purpose. Al
together the Scene was of kind which
rarely occurs even In the liveliest moments
of the House of Commons.

yesterday morning
Mr.. Case spoke of John the Baptist as
the forerunner of Christ, and said that

council OF the nation, sent deputation to

he pIofessed to be the Messiah

"Our Commission" was the theme of a
discourse preached yesterday by Rev.
Willis g. Banker. Of Lawrence, Kans,
at the Metropolitan Presbyterian Church
in Southeast Washington.
The text selected was the eighteenth
verse OF the twenty sixth chapter of Acts,
and the speaker used the words to show
that Christfanity's mission is not alone to
save souls, but to save worldfrom sim He
said the reformation in Luther's time was
q revolt against the machine method of
church work.
The progress of the teachers of the faith
had since then been toward a realization
OF mans relation to man. and to q broader,
more comprehensive Christianity.

that Christ has place in the world, not
only in the sanctuary, but in the workshop
and the office. and along the lines Of busi-
ness nfe."
Rev. Alexander Kent at the Peoples
Church yesterday morning continued his
series Of sermons on the Lords Prayer.

Moses as having died within sight of the
land or Canaan, and without having realized
his hopes an dexpectations of arriving with
his followers in the promised land. The
beautiful thoughts suggested by the death

the speaker. In closing his eloquen Mt sermon

The pulpit at the Church of the Covenant
was occupied last evening by Rev. John G.
Mcintosh, d. D., of Philadelphia, who based
tions between Abraham and Lot.
The speaker described the happiness de-
rived by Abraham from bis privilege of con-
yersing with the angels, and said:
when the crisis came Abraham was
prepared. When he had been abandoned
by Lot, God provided for him. Abraham
had given much for the sake of the Divine
