WERE ALL DISCHARGED,
Mr.. ReplOgIe Failed to Make Out a
Case of fCOnsniracy

The hearing in the case of Attorney
d. b. Replogle against Attorneys +. T..
Gibbs and ]. II. Bonner, and their
clients, William c. Carey and Daniel
Mitchell, charged with conspiracy to
defraud, took place yesterday before
Alderman o. 3. Wright.
The defendants had intended to
waive a hearing and let the matter go
to court but on after reflection decided
to allow the alderman to pass upon 1t.
The alderman could find nothing in the
case that savored of conspiracy and
discharged the defendants.
Mr.. Renlogle's contention, as ex-
planned yesterday, was that in O suit
before Arbitrators concerning a loan
of $1,000, which he had negotiated with
the Globe Lodge, Independent Order Odd
Fellows for William c. Carey, the de-
PENDANTS of yesterday by q manufac-
tured claim of evidence succeeded in
beating him.
Attorneys Nathan Vidaver and ]. T..
Ross We're counsel for the defense. Mr..
Replogle argued his own case.

Or the Last Of the Famous Detective
Bill. by Etc. Etc.

Yesterday saw the last of the famous
detectie bill. 1t was paid. Barring &
McSweeney received their $474A and
City Controller Robinson has a receipt
setting forth that through their at
torney's O'Brien 4 Kelley they have
received full satisfaction.
The bill was for services rendered by
the Barring & McSweeney agency in
breaking up gambling houses three
years ago. When they presented their
bill, something over 5000, councils made
a very emphatic kick and refused to
settle. Mayor Connell and Chief Simp-
non had engaged them and they took
TO the courts for redress. After hang

oning many a newspaper article and

CUBA.

There seems to be fairly reliable
confirmation of the announcement of
Gen. Maceo's death. The insurgents
have several other men who will lead
them about as actively and effectively.
The Spanish forces are said to daily
show more anger and determination.
1t is a vendetta to the death.
American sympathy is all with the
Patriots. Congressman and Senator's
have been carried by the popular
wave. Resolutions recognizing the
flying Republic will likely pass both
branches, be disapproved by the Pres
ident and reaffirmed Notwithstanding
his objections. Secretary Olney, who
is, of course, the mouthpiece of Mr..
Cleveland in this matter, saws to the
Foreign Relations Committee of the
Senate: "There is no Cuban Repub.
lic." The further stand of the admin.
istration is that the showing of the
insurgents is insufficient to win fol

Figs and

Smyrna figs this year are of finer
flavor than we have yet had them.
Our stock is larger, in order that holi-

lily dates are also exceptionally good
and palatable.
If you have never succeeded in get
ting candied peel to suit your taste
you may break the monotony by send

is worth recommending. And another
thing Ripe California olives in
pickle. These are very uncommon but
with a delicious flavor. We sell these
in any quantity desired. They have
different flavor from the ordinary
Queen olive because they are picked
when they are ripe and then put in
pickle.

\ NEW ALLY.

The Patriotic League is IA new Amer
lean political organization that prom
ises to have great influence in the af-
fairs of the United States during the
next four years at least. 1t is the
crystalization of sentiment on Venezu-
ella, Hawaii, Cuba, protective tariff,
Nicaraguan canal, and the guarantee
of domestic peace, confidence and
prosperity. The League is non-parti-
san, but in its declaration of principles
it omits very little that was included
in the Republican platform put forth
at ST. Louis when Maj. Mckinley was
nominated. The new factor is estab-
fishing branches in every hamlet in
the States and its doctrines will spread
no doubt with the marvellous growth
of membership under way. The in
auguration of this movement amounts
to an unexpected campaign on behalf
of annexation. This is a free Offering
that Hawaii will deeply appreciate. 1t
will lead to inquiry concerning the
islands materially and politically
Such investigation can have but one
result. The conclusion affirmed that

CABLE.

Congressman Loud fathers a House
bill at Washington that contemplates
n Pacific cable with a station at Ha-
wall. The proposed Legislation is in
the interest of Col. Spalding's plans.
Mr.. Loud declined to be interviewed.
This movement was not unexpected.
1t is a renewal of the fight between
the two cable corporations, with the
one that was on the defensive before
now aggressive. Hawaii continues to
desire a cable and the arrangement
made with Col Spalding by the Cab
met and Senate stands for several
months yet. Col. Spalding is making
an effort for the subsidy anu the, en-
terprise, Let Mr.. Loud be considered
a moment and some annexation chez
be extracted from his position. He a
few weeks ago questioned the ex-
pediency or timeliness of the project"
Now he is committed to the policy
both by his personal association with
Col. Spalding and his advocacy of
Cable. Cable is one of the big step
ping stones in the direction of annex
alton. Mr.. Loud, Californian, is
warmly welcomed to the list Of
friends of the cause in which his own
state has such vital interest.

LILIUOKALANI.

Her majesty the eX-Queen of Hawaii,
is in the East in the United States.
Nothing more concerning her errand
or trip abroad he's been learned be-
yond what was published the day she
sailed from Honolulu. All is surmise.
Old tales are revived and new ones
constructed. Out of the mass of spec
ulation on the past, on possibilities, on
pending issues or transactions, there
stands forth or remains steadfast one
single significant fact. Liliuokalani
will receive attention at Washington
or even at the court of st. James, as
a private individual only. Her own
abdication, her oath of fealty to this
Government, the official rank of the
Republic of Hawaii, all preclude any
attention to the lady other than her
personality would invite or permit
The eX-Queen has the good wishes IF
many island people for her future wei
fare. There are many who will wish
her success in any private bent or en-
terprise not inimical to the Republic
and the cause of annexation.
