current OF sentiment throughout Canada
favorable to separation from Great
Britain and the establishment of an inde

Aesdsy night In Montreal. The meeting

tion. When the attorney general learned
that tho Philadelphia and Reading Rail-
way company WAS about to transfer Its
properties to tho Reading company he had
grave doubts of the legality Of such ac-

under charter granted by special act Of
assembly in 1871, with large and unlim-
tied powers By the constitution, which
became operative Jan. l, 1874, all private
charters under which bona f1de orgsniza-

commenced At that time were declared
void. An effort will probably be made to
prove to the attorney general that the

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-THE unsx.
pected arrival Of Liliuokalani from Homo.
lulu yesterday evoked much interest and
gave rise to no little speculation as to the
object Of her trip Her only attendants
were man and woman servant and
even her San Francisco agent and former
chamberlain, Colonel George MacF cFarlane
did not know Of the ex-queens arrival
until he received a summons from her on
the arrival Of the steamer
Liliuokalani declines to be interviewed,
and will give no information regarding
the length Of her visit here nor her future
plans. Her fellow passengers on the
steamer gathered the idea that she will 40
to Washington and call upon President
Cleveland, Ia the hope that the United
States will take some steps looking to the
restoration of the Hawaiian monarchy. 1t

the ex-queen will represent to the presi-
dent that the Hawaiian republic has been

weeks ago whom she was granted an un-

taken advantage of the first opportunity
thereafter to leave the island.
Colonel MscFsrlane said: "She has not
yet made me her confdsnt but from her
conversation gather that she will remain
in San Francisco week. She will cor

the interests of herself and people. What
that business may be I do not know post

the annexation proposition, which she
naturally opposes In few days, the

Of her plans to the public.

NEW CASTLE NEWS
Correspondence Of the REPUBLICAN.

NEW CASTLE. Dec. H..
The corners last evening had numbers oi
citizons standing In groups discussing the
question of lighting the city There are
moro properties throughout the city than
on Delaware street. and therefore the
good lights should be scattered. Frotn
tho expressions of council 1t is safe to say
that the Welsbach burner will burn for
some time on our lights
The electric railway will be obliged to
put In a duplicate motor to run its cars,
and II New Castle wants to pay the inter
est on the cost of that motor the city
council will settle tho matter.
II anything should happen to the motor
then tie city would be in darkness while
the other one would be put in service.
City Council will go slow in tho matter as
it knows just how much money Is raised
by taxes, as contracts last only for one
April.
For bargains In dolls, coaches, lemonade
sets, chamber sets, lamps and dishes, go

New Castle people do not believe in the

Impression is gaining ground in political

Gently returned from Cuba. have all publicly
stated that they believe General Weyler
will resign in conseq nee Of the restrictions
the government persists in putting upon his
policy. 1t is thought that General Weyler
is only waiting to seize upon two pre- exits
for retiring. the thwarting of his scheme Of
prohibiting tobacco expectation and the re-
vision Of the schooner Competitor case next
month by the supreme court Of naval ap-
peals.
The Madrid press is attacking the govern
ment severely. charging 1t with having
caused in one year the failure OF Marshal
Campos. by not allowing him to carry out
the provisions OF the home rule laws, when
he landed in Cuba, and the failure Of Cap
tain General weyler, by not backing him
up properly in the policy Of severity, which
was most In favor with the majority OF
Spaniards.
Premier Canovas and the minister OF
war. General Azcarraga, persist in denying
that General wcyler has any reason for
complaining, and, therefore, Cor resigning.
Should General Weyler retire, his successor
will be Marshal Primo de Rivera, who never
has been in Cuba, and is chiefly conspicuous
for his reactionary activity in Spanish
domestic politics in the last twenty-five
years. He was governor Of the Philippine
islands for several years, and now is cap
tain general of Madrid. He is high In
he favor Of the court and Of Premier Cano-
vas, and is said to be disposed TO carry out
the views Of the cabinet in regard to Cuba,
and Spain's relations with the United States
by trimming between the extremes of sever
ity and Cancellation that caused Weyler and
Campos to come to grief.

Of Vamos, which IS surrounded by Cretan

the preposterousness Of the remainder OF the

ordered to Crete in order to reduce the in

II is reported this evening that the Greek
