Ensign DOdd's Trial.

The trial of Ensign NJ. L. Dodd of the
navy was continued at the navy yard yes
terday. The prisoner was on the stand
during portion of the day, and was SUBJ
jected to severe cross-examination by
Judge Advocate Lauchheimer. The ex-
animation related to debt of $40 to Pro-
prietor Bangs of the Sturdevant House,
New York. and to a debt of SIG to Mrs. b.
A. Lambert of 22l East Capitol street.
Both We're on account of board. Ensign
Dodd admitted the justice of both claims,
and said that he was endeavoring to meet
them. The claim of Mrs. Lambert was
paid on Wednesday last, and had been de-
layed simply because he had been unable
to raise the money before. Several wit
nesses were heard with regard to the
Sturdevant House claim, and their evil
dence was decidedly conflicting. Ensign
Dodd had drawn note for the amount of
the BILL and 1T had been Endorsed by Mr..
J. L. Cunningham. This note went to pro-
test. On one side 1T was testified that it
was not expected that this note would be
presented so soon. and on the other side it
was stated that there was no understand
ing about withholding the note. Mr.. Cum
bingham testified that he held himself re-
sponsihIe for the debt, and was now ready
to pay it. The trial was resumed today.

The Washington times., 1895-03-20

Chicago, March ia special 70 the
Daily News from Washington says:
Secretary Gresham has demanded the
recall of L. A. ThuTston, the Hawaiian
minister at Washington.
At the same time the doors Of the State
Department have been closed against the
representative of tie new republic, and
he has been told that he must communi-
cate in writing with the premier of the
Cleveland administration, as the latter
declines to see him in person.
The demand for Minister ThuTston's re-
call was made February 81. That day
Secretary Gresham requested Minister
Willis to formally communicate to the
Hawaiian Minis ter of Foreign Affairs
the fact that Minister Thurston was per
soma non grata.
The communication was sent by mail,
and has probably reached the new repub-
lie, and the news regarding its reception
may now be on an American steamer on
the way to san Francisco.
Gossips are conjuring with another NJ
NOR late this afternoon that the Spanish
minister's recall will be demanded.
The Spanish diplomats offense is al
legged to be similar to Mr.. Tharston's.
He gave an interview to the papers a few
days ago, critieizlng Secretary Gresham,
and naturally there is a commotion among
the diplomats.

NONE TO TELL THE STORY
Reina Regente Sank Not Far from

NOT A SOUL WAS SAVED
All Of Her That Could Be Seen Was Twenty
Inches of Her Masts-Cruiser Alfonzo XII

the Bodies of the Officers and Crew.
There is Mourning Throughout SPAN.

Madrid, March 19.-The positive news
OF the loss of the Spanish cruiser Reina
Regente, which reached here from Cadiz
Immediately after the arrival there Of
the cruiser Alfonso XII, caused the
greatest emotion in Madrid and through
out Spain.
The Queen Regent was deeply distressed.
BY Her Majesty's orders, the sacrament
has been exposed, night and day, in the
royal chapel from the time the first re-
port of the disaster reached her and by
her direction prayers for the safety OF the
crew OF the Reina Regente have been said
continuously ever since.
CadiZ, SPAN, March 19-The Spanish
cruiser AlfonZo XII has returned here af-
ter a search for the missing cruiser Reina
Regente, and reports having found the lat
ter vessel sunk near Bajo Aceitanos, not
far from the Straits of Gibralter Only
twenty inches OF the Reina Regente's
mast swerc above water.
SEARCHING FOR BODIES.
The Alfonzo XII has returned TO the
scene of the wreck with a number of divers
and diving apparatus, in order to recover
the bodies of the crew of the sunken war
ship
The Reina Regente was reported missing
on March 13. She had Just conveyed from
Cadiz to Tangier the returning Moorish
mission to Spain. The cruiser left Tangier
on March 10 for Cadiz. and her whereabouts
have not been definitely ascertained until
to-day.

now be recalled, so as not subject him

SHOW OF COURTESY OBSERvED.
Every effort has been made officially
TO disguise the real state of affairs. Thi
Hawaiian minister's name has been scru
pulOusly included in all State Junction.
in which the diplomatic corps plays {
part, and on at least one occasion he haI
been rendered the honor of a special din
ner by Secretary Gresham, but il is kEowI
that there have been stormy interview
between them.
Minister Thurston was seen and posi-
lively declined to discuss the report III
was at the legation office, and was busill
engaged in preparing q budget Of Officia
mail TO Hawaii. He said the report va
OF such character that he would main
tain absolute silence.
He did not want this takenas anintimdtiOG
OF affirmation or denial. He was asket
specifically if he had been recalled, anG
declined to answer. He was alsOspecificaIlJ
asked as to the closing OF the state
Department against him and made the sanI(
response.
II is recalled now that Mr.. ThurstOI
has not been seen at the Department Of
state in person recently, although Mr..
Hastings, the secretary Of his LEGATION
SenCe of the minister, has been a frequent
visitor, though not on diplomatic errands,
SO far as can he ascertafned.
WILLIS DROPPED A HINT.
While it is doubtful If Secretary Gresham
has gone so far as to demand the recall Of tha
minister, it is believed to be probable
that he has at least allowed some hint ia
reach the Hawaiian government through
our minister, Mr.. Willis, TO the effect
that the relations between the state De-
partment and Minister ThuTstOn We're not
entirely cordial, though there is good ground
for the belief that the Hawaiian govern
ment has not acted as yet upon the hint.
At any rate the Hawaiian newspapers
up to March 3, which reached Washington
yesterday, make no mention of the reported
rupture in any shape. and while it is trua
that the Hawaiian government may have
observed secrecy as TO the receipt of such
a disagreed bic piece OF nc VS.. stiIl it
would have, beyond doubt, felt bound
to make public an event of such Importance
as the recall Of its principal minister.
Every effort made tonight 20 secure 8
confirmation of the story failed Members
OF the cabinet, diplomats, and public men
who should be in position TO know II ac-
ton Of such Importance had been taken,

have change for so large a bill where
upon, ii is alleged, Simmons said he re-
sided at certain number on Corcoran

Matthews.
Il Will take the goods with me and
get the note changed, and will then send

The StOTekeeper offered no objection, and
the accused left the store with the goods.

way to work. He denied having any
knowledge OF the matter charged against
him and protested that he would prove his
innocence. When searched at No. (

note, were found in mis- pockets. The police
claim that six and probably more small
