the fve-minute rule was put in force at

a hard knot by objecting to votes being
taken on any amendments until O'Clock.

said in part: II must beg you to beware
of the weakening diet Of gospel hymns and

MINISTER WILLIS ACCOUNT.
The Recent Outbreak of the Royalista
-.- in Hawaii.


-. in Hawaii.
The Secretary Of State has made public
a portion of the advices received last
Thursday from Minister Willis at Homo
lulu Under date CT January IL, Mr.. Willis
gives the following; account of the revolu-
tionary outbreak which started on the 9Th
instant:
"A squad of government police lHawa-
iian), accompanied by Deputy Marshal
Brown, Mr.. C. L Carter and several others,
undertook search for arms on the prem
ises of half-white named Bertelmann.
who resides on Waikiki Beach, about five
miles from the center of the city. The
searching party was fired on by royahsts
secreted in boat house near by, resulting
in the wounding of several policemen and
the death of Mr.. Charles L. Carter. Mr..
Carter was a prominent lawyer, member
of the commission which visited Washing
ton ia the spring of 1898, and had held
, many other responsible positions. His
death seems to be universally regretted.
After more firing, the royalisrs retreated
to the crater of an extinct volcano, Dia-
mOnd Head, from which they were the fol-
lowing day dislodged by the government
forces. They are today reported to be sur
rounded in the adjoining mountains, with
out supplies and reduced to thirty men.
ION the morning of the 9TH instant mar
tial law was declared, since which prob
ably sixty citizens have been arrested.
Among them are three eX-attorneyS GEL
eral and other prominent persons repre-
senting various nationalities. Many of
these arrests have been, as the govern
ment officers state, precautionary l have
the assurance of the attorney general that
the cases of United States citizens under
arrest will be promptly Investigated and
justly dealt with.
Character OF the Insurgents.

mark OF President Dole that he was graft
fed at the absence from port at this time
Of any national ship 1t gave his govern
ment, he said, an opportunity to prove it's
ability to take care of itself, which, if once
done, would most probably insure perma-
nent peace. Similar views, as l have here
tofore reported, We're expressed by Minister
Hatch, when the Philadelphia was about
to depart.

not probably half as large as first reported;
of foreigners (white) there are not half a
dozen. Their leaders are well known here

of the revolution of 1888 was commander
in-chief of the queens forces. Since then
he has been captain of volunteer body
guard to her. Wilcox is a half-caste Ha-
waiian, was educated at the Royal Artil-
lery School at Turin, and there married
cousin of Prince Colonna. He was the
leader OF the revolution of 1889. The feel
ing, indicated by the newspaper slips in

involved, but thus far nothing has been

HIS GRACE RUN IN.
The Duke of Marlborough Placed
Under Arrest.

corded the arrest of the young Duke
of Marlborough, who is to we'd Miss
Consuelo Vanderbilt.
There is an ordinance which for
bids wheelmen riding faster than
eight miles an hour in the park, or
from coasting down hill. The Duke
did not know this when he hung his
feet over the handlebars and went
sliding down the road to 10th ST.
Officer Sweeney gave chase, over
hauled the Duke, and informed him
he was under arrest. Said the Duke:
"This is an outrage. ] am the Duke
Of Marlborough. How dare you in
suit me in this unwarranted man
ner?"
Officer Sweeney thought the young
man was imposing upon him, and
hippantly remarked: 81 don't give
d--n who you are"
The Duke exhibited his card, but
was compelled to accompany the Of
fcer to the station, which he did
under protest, He said he was ig~
norant of the law, and offered to pay
any fine that was imposed. After
hearing both sides of the case, rounds
man Ryan told the Duke he had
been clearly guilty of violating one
of the parks most stringent rules,
and with few words of caution, re-
leased him from custody The Duke
refused to be interviewed, but his
secretary SAID he regarded the pro-
ceeding as gross outrage.

In the same ravine is lead of lg-

Hosting Speed.

The mention Of hosting speed Of

item on the hosting speeds employ
ed in Hungarian mine, lie, speed
of ! 200 feet per minute, or 1913
miles per hour. At the Tamarack
mine, in the Lake Superior region,
thirty-nine cars per hour were recent
ly raised from depth Of 3,lS6 feet
for six consecutive hours. This is
equivalent to an average hosting
speed of 3,lSO feet per minute, or
36.l miles an hour, allowing trile
over one minute for loading and un-
loading the cages. The load of
rock weighed 6,72O pounds. This
work was performed with a direct
acting or first motion hosting en-
gine made by the Edward p. Allis
company. The steam cylinders are
42XS4 inches, and the hosting drum
30 feet in diameter. 1t has been in
service several years. At another
shaft owned by the Tamarack Min
ing company, trip was made some
days ago, from depth of 4,5OO feet
in one and one-quarter minutes,
equivalent to speed of $500 feet
pei minute, or nearly Al miles an
hour. At this shaft, the engine,
is 32XS4 inches, and the hosting
drum, double cone. l3 feet and 30
feet diameter; each cone will carry
