No Truth IN the Yarn about England

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 6.-THE
CALL correspondent inquired at the State
Department to-day whether any notitca-
ton had yet been received concerning the
action of President Dole in refusing Vol
ney Ashford permission to land on
Hawaiian soil, or Of the reported intent
ton of Great Britain to insist that Ash
ford "a British subiect), be allowed to land
there.
A State Department official said that no
news had been received. He also volun-

and that Great Britain would not inter-
fere. For" said he. 'it Is the sovereign

CIeveEand's Teto of the Deficiency Bid
Sustained after Debate.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 6.-Al-
though this was to have been individual
suspension day to enable the House to dis
pose of certain measures which were being
pressed upon the Speaker for consideration
but one such bill was acted upon by the
body in session prolonged largely beyond
the usual period. This was the Senate
bill to regulate fourth-class mail matter,
which was passed upon motion by Loud
(R.) of California. The effect of the bill is
to shut out of the mails the supplies and
stores of executive departments, which,
under liberal construction of the postal
laws and regulations, have been held to be
malIabIe matter. Loud stated that it cost
the Government II cents pound to carry
this stuff, whereas it could be transported
by express companies at not to exceed
cents pound.
Parsons (R.) of Vermont brought up
the bill clothing the purchasers of the
Atlantic and Pacific Railroad under fore
leges and obligations as those possessed by
the original corporation, but 1t was with
drawn to avoid hostile vote.
The greater part of the afternoon was
devoted to the Presidents veto of the
general deficiency appropriation bill. 1t
was vigorously attacked by Mahon (R.) of
Pennsylvania, and Grosvenor (R.) OF Ohio,
ana defended by Cannon (R.) of Illinois,
Dockery CD of Missouri and Sayers Cd. }
of Texas, and finally sustained by a vote
of ITO to 80.
Cannon then presented revised bill,
omitting the French spoliation and Bow
man act war claims, and several individual
claims, all included in single amend
ment, and moved that the rules be sus-
pended and the bill passed.
This was opposed by Mahon (R.) of
Pennsylvania, Richardson CD of Tennes-
see, Evans (R.) OF Tennessee and Yelling
ton (R.) OF Maryland, chiefly on the
ground that the President had no obiec-
tions to the war claims and the House and
Senate had voted that they ought to be
paid. The House, however, refused to go
with these gentlemen and passed the bill,
liz to 43.
The report of the Committee on Ways
and Means majority and minority. upon
the question of reciprocity was presented
and 10000 copies OF each were ordered to
be printed.

adds to the distrust with which the whole
situation in the peninsula Is regarded by
outsiders.
There is much substance in the rumor
of revival of Fenian activity and that
certain well known men of that kidney are
or have been over here and have taken
rather elaborate pains to draw police
attention to the fact of their presence.
This means, however. as take 1t, moth
ing more serious than a contemplated
strike at McKinley's campaign fund little
later on. There is always an opportune
Fenian scare here in presidential years,
but this present one is the poorest and
most ricketty thing of the kind in the
whole series and if it succeeds in getting
even beer money during the campaign it
will be highly overpaid.
In the City man who has anything to
sell or to raise money on has only to men,
tion that it is American and everybody
turns his back automatically. During the

a penny for the most substantial indus
trial enterprises and the most richly gilded
securities which Americans could offer.
The big Rio Grande irrigation scheme,
only one of a number that would have
been snapped up eagerly year ago, is un-
able to get even fotation expenses now.
No secret is made of the fact that the
masses in America are intent upon a so
per cent repudiation, which is what the 16
to ratio in effect means, and under the
influence of this feeling Englishmen laugh
at any suggestion that they put their
money into things American

has all been squared and that more money

that there will be rush within the next

der the Auspices of the Carroll Club
Cyclers An Attractive Programme.
The Carroll Club Cyclers, at meet
ing held last night, decided to give an
amateur race meet at the State Fair
grounds in this city, on August LIST. This
is a Saturday. and date which will
not conflict with any other sporting
event to take place in the city. Consid-
cradle time was spent in discussion OF
plans foJ the meet, and committees were
appointed upon grounds, music, and ad-
verJisirg.
The club has decided to arrange pro-
gramme of twelve or fourteen races, and
TO hang up prizes which will aggrega e
in value about $500. The prizes will be
made sufficiently attractive to induce
all the crack amateur riders in this Sec
ton Of the country to enter.
The C. c. C. boys are TO be commend
ed for their enterprise. 1t has been sew
eral years since there was race meet
in this city, and it resulted disasrously
from a financial standpoint. The pro-
posed meet should prove a success for
a number of reasons. In the first place
there are more riders now, and greater
interest in this form OF sport; and the
expense will not be as heavy as the
League meet which brought all the crack
riders here.
