TO PROTECT RICHARD.
ENGLAND WILL SEE THAT He RE-
CEIvES JUSTICE.

LONDON, Feb. 15.-Sir Edward Gray, in
response to an inquiry in the House of
Commons as to the condition of affairs in
Hawaii, said that Mr.. Halves, the British
Commissioner, has been instructed b.
cable to ask for the delay of the execution
of the Englishman Richard, who has been
condemned to death by the court-martial,
II he has been convicted of completely only
IN the uprising, or actual participation,
without having had a fair and open trial,
with full opportunity to defend himself
against the accusation made against him.
In either case the evidence on which the
sentence of Richard is based is to be sent
home, and Mr. Hawes has been directed to
act IN concert with his United States col
league, who has received similar instruc-
tons from his Government in the case OF
the American, Seward, who was also con-
demned to death.

stood out like strands of rope; blood vessels
knotted on arms and legs swelling as if
ready to burst with congested blood, re-
strained in its course by his abnormal
position. His tormentors urged him to
implicate all known to be politically op-
posed to their methods without avail.
Dawes refused to surrender the secret he
had sworn to protect. At last when it was
apparent by his respiration that it would
be impossible to hold out longer, nature
succumbed and Davies cursing the fiends
who were torturing him, tainted.
DR.. Cooper used salts of ammonia to re-
ylve the captain, who had passed into the
painless realms of Inconsistencies. As

and it was O'Clock in the evening before
Dawes, more dead than alive, made the
statement which respited him from the in
human barbarity OF his prosecutors.
Another case of torture was brought to
light IN military inquiry. A young native,
who was known to be intimate with Carl
Wledeman, was handcuffed at the wrists
and ankles. Then, with a refinement of
cruelty which would shock Persian sa-
trap, he was placed in tank of ice-cold
water. He was kept there until circula-
ton of the blood in his extremities had
almost ceased, and DR.. Cooper, who APP
pears in the unenviable light of an arch
inquisitor, declared that action of the heart
was almost suspended.
The Chief of Police, Marshal Hitchcock,
had the young Kanaka taken from the
tank, and, after being restored from his
condition of semi-eonsciousness the tor

Davies was then taken into the prison
yard, where ne was shown two ringbolts
in the wall above his head. The uniformed
inquisitors of the Government then gave
the captain to understand that if COM
plete confession was not forthcoming he
would be strung up by his thumbs.
Davies did not finch, but demanded that
if the American Minister could not come
the Consul-General should be informed
that he, as an American citizen, wished to
see him.
His protest was in vain. His legs were
bound below the knees and his thumbs
were dashed with whipcord to the ring
bolts. a box was placed below him so
that the unfortunate mans toes just
touched it.
Davies was stripped to the waist, while
Marshal Hitchcock, Attorney-General
Smith and Surgeon Cooper, with a stenog-
rapher, awaited the statement which they
believed would be shortly forthcoming.
They were mistaken. Davies would not
weaken. Sweat oozed from every pore.
The strong man in his agony begged drop

him. The tendons of the victims limbs

TWO SUSPICIOUS SCHOONERS.
ONE OvERHAULED BY THE NAVY"
OF THE REPUBLIC.

Honolulu, Feb. S.-Several island steam
ers having reported that strange schooner
was lowering about the islands, the tug
Eleu was sent out with Krupp gun and
detachment of the sharpshooters' COM
pany to intercept her. She was found on
Monday, the 4th inst, at 1870 A. NJ, about
three miles from Diamond Head. On ex-
animation she proved to be the sealing
schooner Jane Gray, from San Francisco,
in distress and trying to make the port of
Honolulu. She was given a towline and
anchored close to the Philadelphia. She
had sprung a serious leak above the water
line, from the effects of the stormy weather
she had encountered. She was recalked
and proceeded on her way to Japan to-day.
She had no contraband of war on board
and Captain Funcke says he was awfully
glad to find the tug looking for him.
The authorities evidently have received
some evidence of the doings of the
schooner Norma, which was first suspected
of landing arms here. That she stopped
at some port in the islands and landed
stores of some kind appears to be well
established, but whether guns or opium
the authorities Will not divulge. A Jap
anese boat-steerer belonging to the crew is
under arrest. The vessel recently arrived
here from British Columbia.
\ Portuguese discovered the body of
Kanaka in Pauoa Valley on Sunday. He
was no doubt victim of the revolution,
and it is almost certain there are many
others, some of whom will never be found
until their bones are bleached. Sight
seers to the recent battle-felds are picking
up relics, such as fragments of shells,
cartridges and an occasional pistol or rife
thrown away by the natives in their hurry
to get out OF range of the Krupp guns.

SENATE STRICTLY BUSINESS.
RECIPROCITY CLAUSE CALLED For
IN THE SUGAR BILL.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The Senate con-
fined itself strictly to business to-day, and
as a result passed the Postotfice appropria-
ton bill and got half through the agricul-
tural appropriation bill. Efforts were re-
sumed to cut down rentals for postal-cars
and for the Eastern fast mail service north
and south, but all these amendments were
defeated by decisive majorities.
Secretary Morton was present during the
debate on the agricultural bill. 1t brought
out an animated discussion of the PROPOSE
ton to amend the meat inspection system
in order to get American meats into foreign
countries.
During the day the pooling bill was taken
up long enough to permit speech in it's
support by Butler, who is in charge of
the bill
The Finance Committee reported favor
ably the bill repeating the one-tenth dis
eliminating duty on sugar from countries
paying sugar bounty, and Aldrich. sub
mitted motion to recommit the bill to
the committee with instructions TO add
provisions for reciprocity bounty on do
mestic sugar and for meeting treasury de-
ficiencies. No action was taken on the re-
port OF the motion to recommit.

CLEVELAND IS DISGUISED.
He WILL ASK FOR No MORE FINAN
CIAL LEGISLATION.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-There seems to
be little doubt that yesterdays fight was
the final rally in the campaign of the adj
ministration Democrats for financial legis-
lation in this Congress. Members who are
supposed to know the mind OF the Presi-
dent say that he recognizes that it is
futile to attempt to secure any sort of
legislation for the treasury, and they
assert that he will not again recommend
Congressional action of any sort upon the
finances.
These Democrats are disposed to put
upon the Republicans the blame for
failure of the resolution reported by the
Ways and Means Committee. For their
part many Republicans who, on Saturday,
would not have opposed the gold provision
in bond issue, had the proposition been
unincumbered by other factors, explain
their negative votes by saying that they
could not assent to contract made with
private parties for taking the bonds when
they believed the Issue could have been
adyantageonsly disposed of by public COM
petition in this country.

YET FOR ANNEXATION.
NATIVES, HEADED BY THE Elk
QUEEN, TO SEND A PETITION.

HONOLULU, Feb SIT is apparent that
Minister Hatch's return from the States
has materially strengthened the Govern
ment and put more life and backbone into
it, and there are those who think that this
is entirely due to promises of encourage
ment and support made him while in San
Francisco by prominent members in both
houses of Congress. Certain it is from the
present course of Dole and his Cabinet that
Cleveland and Gresham will be forced to
show their hands and once more give in to
the superior diplomacy OF the President of
the Hawaiian republic. Another thing
that bears out this view is that deter
mined effort is to be made to force the an.
nexation question to the front again in
the shape of monster petition to
President Cleveland signed only by
natives and headed by no less person
than the ex-Queen, herself, asking for i'm
mediate annexation, pure and simple. 1t
is not improbable that another commission
will be sent to Washington in the same in
terest if the present Congress takes no
action. The late rebellion and the expense
connected with it, besides the immense
loss to business, has brought nearly every
one here to the belief that annexation is
the true remedy. Recent events have
shown the strength of the present Govern
ment, acknowledged to be the best ever
had here, but at the same time has shown
the necessity of supporting it with strong
military force at great expense, the cost
OF which would otherwise be devoted to
internal improvements. 1t is the general
opinion here that if the United States does
not take what is so freely offered
Great Britain will be given a chance, and
while the former is much preferred the
latter would be satisfactory to most people
here.

YOUR INCOME TAX
HAS TO Be PAID.
THE UNITED STATES COURT OF
APPEALS REFUSES TO GRANT
AN INJUNCTION.
LOWER COURT SUSTAINED
The QUESTION WILL Now BE AP-
PEALED TO THE SUPREME
BODY.

| WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The Court of A p
peals to-day affirmed the Judgment of the
lower court, refusing to grant John G.
Moore OF New York an injunction to re-
strain Internal Revenue Commissioner
Aller from proceeding to collect the income
tax from the complainant.
The counsel for Moore noted an appeal
to the United States Supreme Court, and
the matter will probably be brought to the
attention of the court of last resort soon
after 1T reConyenes next month.
Chief Justice Alvey, who delivered the
-opinion, took notice of a statement made
by counsel during the hearing that an
early decision was in order to get final
judicial determination at this term of the
United States Supreme Court, and said !:
with that object in view there can be no
good reason or use or purpose subserved
by any elaborate consideration by this
court OF the questions presented by the bill
and demurrer.
Some OF the questions raised may we'll
admit OF grave and careful argument and
consideration if presented under proper
conditions. But in this case, and as now
presented, we do not perceive that there is
any good ground or cause shown for an in
junction to restrain the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue from proceeding with
the work OF his bureau in respect to the as
sessment and collection of the income tax
under the act of Congress Of 1894.
"The court is asked to take cognizance
of deal with the case before the facts are
brought into existence to constitute the
foundation for the exercise of Jurisdiction,
even surprising the court competent to ex-
tend relief by Injunction, Notwithstanding
the positive prohibitory' terms of the
statute embodied in section 1924 of the Re-
vised Statutes of the United States, which
declare that no suit for the purpose of re-
Straining the assessment or collection
of any tax shall be maintained in any
court
1.-THE learned Justice below has consd-
cred this case at large and has decided all
the questions attempted to be raised by it,
and he has reached the conclusion that
there was not sufficient ground presented
to justify the exercise of the restraining
power of a court of equity in any aspect of
the case. And without considering and
deciding the main questions presented by
the bill we concur in the conclusion
reached by the Justice below, that there is
not sufficient cause alleged or shown for
the extraordinary remedy by Injunction,
and therefore the decree Diminishing the
bill should be affirmed, and it is so de-
cided.'

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Collectors of In

have already begun to receive returns
under the income tax law and in a num-
Der of instances the cash has accompanied
the return. Inasmuch as the tax is not re-

at this time. To these inquiries Commits

lector is satisfied the return is correct.
