The Dole Government Asked to
Pardon Ashford
THE INVITATION DECLINED
Ashford's Return to the IsIaud win Be
Resisted
An lntimatien 0lven That the Unlted States
VIII Be Asked to Extend Its
Good offices

Associated Press Special Wire.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 10.-The
steamer Australia from Honolulu today
brings confirmation of the Associated
Press story concerning the demand
made by Great Britain that Volney
Ashford be permitted to return to Ha-
wall. The Dole government is very
much excited over the report but tho
president of thel little republic Is pursu-
ing a conservative course in dealing
with the matter. The news of Eng
lands demand originated In Washing
tho, d. c., and was forwarded In pri-
vate correspondence to a Hawaiian
paper and several private concerns.
The situation is said to be that Great
Britain has made a rather sharp de-
mand upon this government on behalf
of Col. " V. Ashford. The request" is
stated as the suggestion, in diplomatic
sentences, that pardon issue to Ash
ford and that he be permitted to re-
turn to Hawaii without conditions Of
any sort.
1t is stated by the Honolulu Star that
the republic declines to accept the
British foreign Offices view Of this case,
refuses to grant the pardon or remove
the ban and adds that If Col. Ashford is
landed under British or other auspices
or protection until there has beenan ex-
tended and complete review of the case
the action will be at least protested.
There is a likelihood Of Hawaii call
ing upon the United States to extend it's
offices inthe dispute.
Col. V. V. Ashford was convicted by
the military commission of misprision OF
treason. The evidence was that he had
advance knowledge of the outbreak.
His sentence was imprisonment for a.
year and fine of $1,000. He was then i'll
and Is still a sick man. After a few
weeks ''on the reef" the man who had
once been prominent in Hawaii was
given suspension Of fine and imprison-
ment on condition that he leave the
country never to return. 1t was then
quite generally understood that after a
reasonable lapse Of time he would be
allowed to come back on making proper
request.
In letters to Hawaii on British sub
5ects mixed up in the revolution and
tried, the queens foreign office gave the
opinion that courtmartial was uncon-
stitutional and that there could be no
objection to any of the cases except that
of Ashford. 1t was claimed that the
evidence against him was insufficient.
1t seems that Col. Ashford has followed
up this point. The understanding is
that the Hawaiian minister of foreign
affairs is preparing an answer to the
request"

Stolen Property Sold Back to the Unsuspect-
ing Owner

Detectives Hawley and Auble yester-
day morning captured man on the
street and placed him in Jail with a
charge of petty larceny against his name.
The crime for which he was arrested and
the manner of his detection are some
thing novel in their way.
On Tuesday afternoon James Dewey,
of the Photographic firm of Dewey Bros,
on Main street, packed and shipped to
the east for repairs a Kodak camera
valued at $50. The camera had been
broken and was carefully wrapped UP
and delivered to one of Wells -Fargo's s
collection wagons. being duly receipted
for. 1t was several hours later when q
man called upon Mr.. Dewey and offered
cal counterpart of the one he had just
shipped, break and all.
Dewey was dumbfounded, but could
not believe his eyes that here was the
camera he had just shipped away. Ber-
trand, another photographer, happened
to call about this time, and Mr.. Dewey
closed deal by which he bought the
instrument for So. Both men had taken
a good look at the man and had regis
tered mental photograph of his phiz.
Even after he had bought the camera
and the man had departed, Mr.. Dewey
was skeptical of its being his property
previously and so telephoned to Wells
Fargo to see il the package he had
shipped turned up at the Office. 1t did
not, as it had evidently been stolen from
the wagon while en- route to the depot
and the thief had unwittingly taken his
plunder direct to its rightful owner for
sale.
A good description of the man was CIV
en- to tie detectives by Bertrand and
Dewey, and yesterday morning Hawley
and Auble met him face to face on the
street. He was promptly picked up,
taken to headquarters and searched.
He gave the name of James Murphy,
which is undoubtedly an alias, and in
his pockets was found lot Of stuff
which 1t is supposed he has stolen. Muir
ply is tall, raw-boned fellow and from
appearances tough character. Mr..
Dewey and Mr.. Bertrand identified him
positively as the man who sold the cam
era. He will be held on the petty lar
ceny complaint while the officers are
looking up the owners Of the balance
of the property found in his possession
and which is supposed to be stolen.

CONNECTICUT DEMOCRACY
HARTFORD, Conn, June 10.-The
Democratic state convention to select
delegates to the National convention
and presidential electors, met here to-
day NJ. B. Carey, the temporary chair
man, in speech claimed consideration
for the Independent voters to whom sew
eral recent victories of the Democratic
party were due. He secuted the propo-
sition to reopen the fight on the tariff
issue. He declared the fight now is on
the currency question. He asked that
the conventions platform be made to
contain an unequivocal declaration for
the single gold standard, and bi-metal-
lism in all forms be disavowed. He
praised President Cleveland and ex-
GovernorRussell as uncompromising op-
ponents of the debasement of the cur
rency, whose leadership the Democracy
could safely follow. Relative to pres
idential nominees, Carey said he hoped
the convention at Chicago would select
a man whose lips were not sealed on the
question of the day and whose attitude
could not be matter Of doubt.
Ex-Governor Waller, the permanent
chairman, spoke briefly. The report of
the committee on resolutions was adopt
ed. On the currency the platform says:
while we favor the most liberal use
Of silver consistent with the enforce
ment of the gold standard, we are unal-
terably opposed to the free coinage of
silver, deeming it a device for the de-
basement of our currency and the COM
pulsory purchase of silver by the gov
ernment. Under existing circumstances
to pay the public debts in silver coin Is
reputation.
I'VE believe the safety of our national
finances requires a system of sound
banking by which note currency am
pie to supply the needs of the whole
country shall be created, safely Sc
cured and everywhere redeemable in
gold''
The platform endorses the administra-
tion Of President Cleveland, and espe-
cially approves his firm support of the
public credit and his exemplification of
the Monroe doctrine.
Selections made at the caucus Of last
night for delegates to Chicago were rat
flied as follows: At large-First dis
trict Miles B. Preston; Second district,
Lynde Harrison Third district. Thomas
i. Waller; Fourth district, James L. AL
lis. The other delegates were Edward
D. Coogan, Lyman Tingler, William A.
Kennedy, Horace r. Butler, William H.
Shields. Fred Morrel, Charles K. Ly-
man, Michael j. Houlihan.
In Difference to the wish Of ex-Gov-
ernor Russell of Massachusetts, ex-
pressed in a letter to Lynde Harrison,
the delegates were not instructed on the
subject of presidential candidates.

Gladness Comes

With a better understanding Of the
w transient nature Of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort In
the knowledge, that SO many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why 1t Is the only
remedy with millions Of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that 1t is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating tho
organs on which it acts 1t is therefore
ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine artt-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali.
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but If in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and Is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction
