SENATORS COUNTED.
Majority are Opposed to President
Cieyeiand's Bond Plan.

Senators known to be friendly TO the pol
lev of the administration are being Hooded
with telegrams from all parts OF the country
from business men and mercantile establish
ments urging them to stand by the recon-
mendatiou made by Mr.. Cleveland on the
financial question, and insisting that some
thing shall be done. These kilograms are
addressed chiefly to the senators from the
eastern and middle states and the senators
from these sections have quietly canvassed
the situation for the purpose OF showing their
constituents Just how the vote in the senate
would stand on any proposition that might
be advanced.
The following poll of the senate made by
those who favor the presidents recommends

question: For the bond issue: Messrs.

THE EEX-QUEEN SEIZED
Liliuokalani is Arrested
for Treason.
Conspired With Insurgents
Against the Young Republic.
Stores of Arms and Dynamite Bombs
Found I'm Her House.

Advices received at Auckland, New Zeal
and, from Honolulu under date OF Jan 10,
announce that Queen Liliuokalani has been
arrested on the charge OF completely with the
insurgents in the recent rebellion. In addi-
ton, all the insurgent lea ,ers have been
taken into custo iy and are being tried by
court martial. Three of the leaders pleaded
guilty TO treason. Martial law is maintained.
The rebellion turned out to be complete
flasco. After the first engagement the rebels
scattered, and some time later, Wilcox, Now
lin, Butelman and others of the leaders Of
the insurrection were captured and as already
stated are being tried for treason before a
court martial. Shortly after Queen Lilliuo-
kalani was arrested, her house WAS searched.
and In it were found stores Of arms aud dy-
Mantle bombs. The arrests referred to have
resulted in the restoration of order in Ha-
waii.
Later advices dated Jan. q say that quite
a large quantity OF arms, imported for the
use of the rebels have been seized in addition
to those found in the house of the ex-queen.
Messrs. Savais, the importers of the arms,
have been fined.
1t is learned from an authentic source
that the Hawaiian government is seriously
considering the advisability Of putting to
death the royalists who were prominent in the
recent revolution against the republic. In
formation rs to the determination OF the
government will probably reach Washington
by the next steamer from the islands, which
will be due at San Francisco next week. Ii
is already known that Queen Liliuokalanl
will be banished, and it is not improbable that
she will arrive in the United States on the
same steamer

SENDS THE BOOK BACK.
Collector Sanford of Concord, Mass,
Returns the Tax List by Mail.

Charles w. Sanford the embezzling tax
collector of Concord, Mass, has sent to the
town auditor the missing tax book. 1t came
through the mails, bearing New York post
mark In the same mail were two other
letters from the former tax collector to peo-
pie in Concord. BY means OF this book it is
estimated that Sanford's defalcations will foot
up very near $4,000 instead OF $4,000 or
Sc, 600, as was at first thought.
The tax book is about 5xS inches in size,
and half an inch thick, and contains the name
OF every person in town who is taxed, to-
gether with the amount of the tax. Inside
the book written on the front OF an envelope
was the following note:
'To the auditor:
II believe this book to becorrect None of
the cash books have been written up since last
month. CHARLES W. SANFORD.
After the word month there was capital
~ " written and crossed out, as though he
started to make further statement, and then
decided not to do so. This book is of great
value to the town, as it contained the only
record of the tax warrant and could be du-
picated only by the assessors making another
assessment OF taxes. At the beginning OF the
year 1894 there remained uncollected Of the
tax of 1894 over $1,000, and, as is
the custom, greater efforts are exerted in col
lecting the old tax. 1t is estimated that
nearly all the amount is gone. The return of
the tax book amazed the town officials in two
ways. First that it should be returned at all,
and second bv revealing a shortage mach
larger than was anticipated by any one. San
fords bond was $4,000, just about the size
OF the estimated shortage.
Prosecution for criminal action is in the
hands of the district attorney. The town it
self has as yet taken no action, and probably
will not unless there is a strong public senti-
ment in favor of it, All the real estate OF
Sanford, amounting to about $4,000, has been
! attached for the benefit of the town. The
bondsmen are ready to reimburse the town to
the full extent of the bonds, so that it is
probable that the town will not lose a cent.

DISGRACEFUL SCENE.
In the National House Between Breck.
inridge aud Heard.

Representative W. c. p. Breckinridge OF
Kentucky narrowly missed expulsion from
the House of Representatives at Wash.
ington for striking Representative Heard of
Missouri a man of half his strength, and
who is Just recovering from an illness. The
kentuckian lost all control of himself used
most incorporate language and was only
kept from striking Representative Heard,
who behaved well throughout, by being
forcib,y held by his colleagues.
Breckenridge was plainly in the wrong and
his unpOpularity in the House, marked ever
since his trial. has so increased that motion
for his expulsion would have gone through
almost unanimously. But partly because his
departure on the 4th of March is SO near and
partly because the House did not wish 10
make martyr out of him. even in appear
ance, the suggestion made on the floor that
he be expelled was not pressed.
His disgraceful conduct created the most
exciting scene Of the session. All the mem-
bers rushed as rapidly as the desks would
permit to the spot where the two men stood,
aud in the attempt to restrain Breckenridge o
dozen Of them became more or less involved.
while scores were Offering advice, which
made disorderly N.
Even in the personal explanations which
Heard and Breckenridge attempted, Breckin-
ridge came near precipitating another row.
Ii was nearly an hour before the house was
quiet enough to resume its business in nor
nal way, although the actual encounter be-
tweed Breckenridge and Heard only lasted n
few minutes.

DIR. H. f. POPE MURDERED
Male Nurse Says He Did the Ghastly
Deed i'm Self f-Defense.

DR.. Horace Elliott Pope of Detroit, Mich,
was found murdered at his home, So Mlchl-
gan avenue Pope was at one time very sue
cessful, but at the time of his death was llv-
ing in destitution with his wife, child and
male nurse, william Brusseau. Mrs Pope has
been suffering from a arrangement for more
than ear, and Brusseau was engaged to con-
stantly watch her. Early in the morning Brus-
seau said he was awakened by hearing Pope
stealing through his room with candle in
one hand and cloth in the other. de FOL
lowed him into the room Of Mrs. Pope,
smelled chloroform and saw the husband
with the white cloth pressed to his vile
face. Pope turned to assault the nurse ana
fired at him. Brusseau picked up hatchet
r. defend himself and split the skull oi
Pope. n,
Dental College. The police believe there Is
more in the murder of DR.. Pope than appears
on the surface, They are working on the
assumption that William Brusseau and Mrs.
Pope are guilty Of conspiracy.
1t appears that Pope has told several peo-
pie he was afraid OF being murdered LOT MS
life insurance, of which he had Sl4O IN
four fraternal assessment concerns. II Is al
legged that Mrs Pope has been instrumental
in having him keep the assessment PAID up,
and has gone to several insurance agents IN
! the town, telling them that Pope wanted more
insurance, and she has urged him In the
| presence Of these agents to take more AT
one time he had $4,000 insurance, and is
said to have feigned sickness to get sick
| benefits. Mrs. Pope feigns insanity, the
! police think. Sheis being watched by officers,
| and will be taken to the central station as
soon as she can be moved.
