MINISTER WILLIS RETURNS

Denies That He Is Persona Non Grata
With the Hawaiian Governments.
y San Francisco, April 27.-Albert s.
Willis, minister from this country to
the Hawaiian islands, arrived from
Honolulu today. He says that he is
III i'll health, and with his family will
go to his old home in Louisville to
spend his three months leave of alb
sence. He denies absolutely the
stories that he is persona non grata
with the Hawaiian people or govern
ment, and says that he was not sum
moned to Washington upon complaint
OF the Hawaiian government and that
no reproof has been given by Secretary
Olney for any act of his in Honolulu.
Willis declares that he has received
nothing but kindness from the Ha-
waiians, and declares positively that
ne wlIi return TO mis- post at Honolulu
at the expiration of his furlough.
The report that sighted the Ha-
wallans ON Washington's birthday"
said Mr.. Willis, "is absolutely untrue.
l entertained no one at dinner ON that
day, but President Dole, of his own
volltlon, sent the government band to
my home to play during the evening.
SO far as my failure to observe the Ha-
waiian republic anniversary on January
II, is concerned, that is a matter
which l will discuss only with the state
department. My position in declining
to participate in the celebration was
the result of my careful consideration
OF the orders under which | am in

Another Veto.

Washington, April 28.-The presi-
dent today sent to the house message
vetoing the bill granting a pension of
$50 to Francis e. Hoover. The presi.
dent says he does not understand that
it is claimed in any quarter that the
present helplessness of this soldier is at
all attributable to his army services.
The president says:
TO grant him pension of $50 a
month without the least sugge ,tion
that his pitiable disability is related to
his army service, and in view of the
fact that he is now receiving the high
est pension allowed by general law
enacted to expressly meet sach cases, il
seems to me, would result in an unfair
discrimination as against many thou.

Cincinatti. April 27.-Interest in
the trial at Newport, Ky, for the mur-
der of Pearl Bryan grows more intense
daily. Eleven witnesses were OK
amined today. The policy of the
prosecution il to present the case in the
order of time as nearly as possible.

nine witnesses examined in the after.
noon, the testimony of Mrs. Bryan, the
mother of Pearl, was full of pathos.
When asked how she was able to iden-
tify the headless girl sent to Greencas.

with thrilling effect:
at is difficult for mother to be de.
ceived about recognizing her own
child.

FARALLONE DAMAGED.

Well-Known Coaster Strikes An Un-
marked Rock.
San Francisco, April 27.-The steam
schooner Farallone from San Farnulsco
for Yaquina bay and other points
along the northern coast, ran on a sub
merged rock when one day out. At
Eureka the ship was examined and 1t
was discovered that her forepost had
been torn off and the keel of the vessel
badly damaged for distance of forty
feet 1t is expected the vessel will be
taken off the drydock, and will arrive
in San Francisco ON or about May 3.
The rock upon which the Farralone
so nearly met destruction. is described
by Captain Roberts as being about z Il
miles south Of Point Gorda, and 1 H
miles out to sea. When the tide is
nearly at its height the rock is covered
by about nine feet of water.
One of the most dangerous features
of the matter is that the captain dc.
clares the rock is not down on the
charts, and is indeed grave danger TO
navigation. Point Gorda is one of the
most dangerous points on the coast, and
is the spot where the steamer Hum
boldt was recently wrecked. The ill
fated Bawnmore also ran on to a rock
at that point about two years ago, but
fortunately escaped,

question by adopting compromise
framed by Senator Cockrell, of Mis-.
souri,. The Indian bill, as it came
from the house, provided that mo
money herien appropriated shall be

This provision is struck out by the
Cockrell amendment. as adopted, and

of the government to make no appro-
prlatons for sectarian schools after

the abandonment of sectarian schools,
instead of an immediate abandonment.

cisive vote of 3S to "a. The Indian
bill was not completed when the senate
adjourned. During the day bill was
passed providing for government regu-
lation of excursion fleets attending re.
gattas; also resolution calling for in.
formation as to the arrest of Bishop
Diaz in Cuba.
Washington. April 25.-Several mi
nor bills were passed at the opening of

the president to dispatch naval force
to Cuba for the protection of American
interests, but on appeals not to inter-
rupt the Indian bill he withdrew, stat.
ing that he would call up his resolu-
tion later. The Indian bill was then
taken up, the question being ON Platt's
amendment extending the services of
the Dawes committee, with view to
the making of roll of the Cherokee
and kindred nations. The committee
is given directions toward terminating
the tribal relations of the Indians and
dividing their lands in severalty. The
debate was protracted. The Indian ap-
preparation bill, as thus amended, was
then passed. At o'clock the senate

ment for international arbitration was

item of the sundry civil bill was
reached, authorizing the Venezuela
commission to pay rent for it. quar-.
ters out of the $40, appropriated
for its expenses. German suggested
that legislation was in order. In great
haste and great emergency, congress
had appropriated 800, 900, at the sug-
gestion of the president, for the pur-
pose, as was supposed, of preventing a
war But now it appeared that the
legislation was not effective in getting
quarters for the commission.
