Of Judge Hoge, who now represents
the city.
The matter springs out of the late
arrest of Gussie and some eleven other
new residents of Commercial street,
the charge being keeping a house of
ill-fane, selling Intoxicating liquors
without license, and, as to the
girls" being in such houses for i'm
moral purposes. The contention is that
the commissioner has no jurisdiction
in the matter. Counsel for the petit
TONERS insist that the offense, if com
mitted at all, is under the exclusive
jurisdiction of the city, and the terri
tory has no locus standi herein.
The arguments were made at con-
siderable length, after which his honor
took it under Amusement.

Nebraska Penitentiary Scandal

LINCOLN, Neb., March 9.-The reso-
lntions for an investigation of the al
legged cruelties practiced at the state
peniten tiary were adopted in the
house and senate as per agreement at
the house caucus Two years ago the
senate appointed a committee to in
vestigate charges of extreme cruelty
upon the part of attaches of the peni-
tertiary toward the convicts, but
nothing came of it. Convict Jones,
whose stories of terrible cruelty in
the penitentiary were the pre1imin
airy cause of the trouble, went to
Council Bluffs last night and declared
he had been paid by the penit sntiary
officials to leave the state and that
all he had said was true.

ENGLAND LEFT OUT.

Will Unite With Those of the

FOR AN OCEAN CABLE.
Connecting This~Gountry With
the Hawaiian Islands.
FOR AN OCEAN CABLE.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-When con-
gress failed to provide for building
the Hawaiian cable it by no means
ended the question. On the contrary
it has brought forward project of
international Importance by which
Russia, France, Japan and Hawaii
will join in an American enterprise
for lay ing a cable from the United
States to Hawaii and thence to Japan
with branch cables to the French
islands and extensive naval stations
in the Southern Pacific. The negotia-
tons with these governments have
proceeded quietly but with such sat
isfactory results that they are we'll
along toward completion. A number
of conferences have been held with
the officials of the Japanese legation
here and several phases of the sub
ject are now 1nder negotiation be-
tween Toxic and Washington. Min
lister Kurino is much interested in the
project 1t is probable that five or
six of the most inhue initial and
wealthy Japanese merchants will be
named among the incorporators.
Admiral John Irwin. United States
navy. who wrote the cable report
when in command of our feet ia
Hawaii, and General Roy Stone are
principally interested in the enter
prise In Washington. With them are
associated President Alvord of the
Bank of California and the vice presi-
dent of the bank; also the president
and vice president of the San Fran
cisco Chamber of Commerce, John D.
Sprecl<les, son of Claus Spreckles,
Herman Oelrichs, son-in-la of the
late Senator Fair, and other million
aire capitalists.
The principal work of organization
is being contaminated here in Wash
ington. The only question at pres
ent is whether the incorporation
shall be under the state laws of New
York. New Jersey. Maryland. Vir-
ginia or California. Their advantages
are being compared and the corpora
ton will be under the state laws most
favorable.
The contamination of the plans.
which are now made known for the
first time, cannot fail to arouse k cen
interest in Great Britain and thro ugh
out Europe. The British project of a
cable starting from Vancouver APP
pears to be ended with the failure of
the senate to SO modify our treaty
with Hawaii as to let the British
cable land on Neekar island. The
only course for Great Britain would
! be to induce Hawaii to break this
treaty obligation with the United
States, but it is known positively
this will not be done Instead there :
| fore if British cable across the Pacific
has long seemed imminent, France,
Russia, Japan and Hawaii are uniting
with American enterprise to execute
| this work of vast commercial and mill
itary Importance.

BUSINESS PICKS UP.

Wheat Exports Increase and the
Visible Falls Off.

New YORK, March o.-BradstreeU
says: THE general business situation
shows more improvement. From sew
eral centers this is declared due in
part to the adjournment Of congress.
and to some extent to better weather.
Gains are shown in improved de-
mand for lumber and other build
ing materials, and in receipt of
larger orders for structural iron
and steel, together with the ABSORB
ton of available stocks of Bessemer
pig iron. In almost all directions
jobbers report increased sales of
staple dry goods, hats, shoes, milli-
merry and hardware. Fine foreign
wooden goods continue to attract the
special attention heretofore reported,
and are competing successfully with
corresponding American grades. Lon
don wool sales report a moder-
ately higher and stronger market
1.-THE continuance of the movement
of merchandise is at about low ebb
during February, as indicated by
gross earnings of ffty-six of the large
railway companies for that month,
which, as reported to Bradstreet's ag-
gregate SCI, 673, 900 (about 20 per cent
of the totaD, a decrease of 1.s per
cent from the earnings for the like
period last year, when the falling off
compared with February, 1893, was IL

1.-THE regular monthly report on
wheat stocks. United States and Can
ada, for February shows decrease of
81, $50, 900 bushels, three times the
falling off in February last year,
while the January and February de-
crease was 16. 1853 900 bushels, four
times the falling off in the like
period of 1894. The February de-
crease here, in Europe and afoat for
Europe was 10000, 900, as contrasted
with an increase of about 100, 600
bushels each in February one and
two years ago. For two months this
year the worlds available supply fell
off $4,000, 900 bushels, against a de-
crease of 5000, 900 bushels in two
months of last year. and 1900, 600
in two months of 1898. If like ex-
ceptiona1 decreases are to follow
during the remaining months of
the year, the effect on the visible
supply and on prices should be
marked. Exports in wheat, both
coasts of the United States, this week
have increased sharply, aggregating
2, 372, 900 bushels, against 1859, 600
bushels last week, 2,851, 900 bushels
in the week a year ago, about the
same quantity in the week two years
