Minister to Japan TO Inspect Con
ditiOnS Here

| Minister to Japan TO Inspect Con-
ditiouS Here
WASHINGTON, May 13.-The Star.
an annexation paper, says: That the
| administration is keeping a watchful
eye on the situation in Hawaii was as
certained beyond a doubt in the infor-
nation received by a Star reporter to-
day that Colonel E. A. Buck, the new
Minister to Japan, will stop at Homo
lulu on the way to his post.
Minister Bucks intentions have been
to leave San Francisco June 5. He has
on the 10Th of this month. He will
spend a week in Honolulu and take the
next passing steamer for Japan. He
will probably leave San Francisco with
Harold Sewall, the new Minister to
Hawaii. They will be together a week
in Honolulu, and in that time will be
able to jointly acquire a great deal of
valuable information as to the exact
situation of the influx of Japanese into
the islands.
Of course it is difficult to learn from
Colonel Buck or Mr.. Sewall the nature
of their instructions. 1t is known, how
ever, that the administration has been
deluged with stories of the alleged at
tempts of the Japanese to COLOMBO the
islands and in time, start revolution
to secure possession of them. The dis
patch of the warship Philadelphia to
Honolulu and recent developments in
other ways have been sufficient to keep
all eyes open.
The Japanese legation here has per-
sistently denied that Japan has any
however. have evidently become so
conflicting to President Mckinley that
he has decided to ascertain for himself
just what is going on. He has given
the instructions under which Minister
Buck will act. The knowledge which
Mr.. Buck will get in Honolulu will be
of benefit to him when he reaches
Japan He will be in a position to
| more readily understand the future
! movements of the Japanese.
Another matter is that of annex
alton, Minister Sewau is supposed to
favor annexation, and many people be-
lieve the plans of the administration
tend to ultimate annexation. If this
is the case, and Japan being interested
more than any other country, it Is a
diplomatic movement to have Minister
Buck post himself as much as possible
on the situation in Hawaii and Japan.

The appropriation was not sufficient
TO buy a foot OF land or begin naval
station Cannon did not believe in
magnifyfug the Importance of these
international matters and becoming
frightened at this or that nation.
The item was opposed by Savers.
Instead of looking abroad for objects
of legislation. Congress should look TO
the relief of its own people.
Cummings Cd of New York spoke
earnestly in favor OF the appropria-
ton.
Hilborn (RD of California said:
'The United States has bought a sheet
of water at Pearl harbor but not a
foot of land All the land at Pearl har-
Dor has been bought by spectators,
who hold it in expectation that the
United States must buy" When the
United States was so badly off for
naval stations at home it was folly to
build them abroad, he said In case of
war all the power of the Navy would
be required to hold Pearl harbor. and
in case of annexation the harbor would
be unnecessary.
Simpson (Pop) of Kansas advocated
the project, and Henry (R) of Connec-
sets spoke in favor of the amendment
Savers warned Congress that the next
step in line with the proposed policy
would be annexation. He warned them
not to be frightened by the report that
England would take possession of the
islands. Next to conflict with my
own brother" he said, ''I would deplore
war with England. I don't believe Eng
10 md &c
than we want war with her."
A vote was taken on Hits motion
to concur in the Senate amendment,
which failed by vote Of SO to 50.
Comparatively few Republicans were
present and the vote was nearly q
party one Half a dozen Democrats
and Populists, including Cummings of
New York, Tate of Georgia. King of
Utah and Populists Simpson and Rid
gley of Kansas voted to concur. and
about dozen Republicans. among
them Cannon, Hilborn, Parker, Moody
of Massachusetts. Brodrick of Kansas,
Cromwell of Ohio and Linney of North
Carolina. The Pearl harbor amend
ment was sent to conference.
Hilborn tonight said that he had
studied the result of the vote of the
House on the amendment which result
ed in non-concurrence. and he believed
the anneXationists would never again
be able to show so much strength. He
said the strength was the remnant of
the Harrison administration feeling.
the anti-Cleveland faction and those
secured by personal work of the Ha-
waiian delegation. In his opinion, it
showed the high-water mark of an
neXation sentiment, and indicated that
not only was the House opposed to
closer relations, but also to recipro-
city.

A Grave Desecrated.

Mrs. Conrad Schwartz of Bennington, who
died Sunday of acute Bright's disease, was
taken to Troy. N. Y, and Wednesday was
inferred in st. Peters cemetery there. About
O'Clock Thursday morning John l.. Sulli-
van, superintendent of the cemetery, and IL
grave digger noticed that Mrs. Schwartz :
grave had been opened. When they exam
med the grave it was found that the coffin
was on the edge of the opening. The lid of
the polished oak box had been torn off and
the glass of the coffin shattered. The body
had been taken from the coffin and thereafter
crowded back. Flowers, which had been be-
slowed by loving friends, were tumbled into
the mud. Superintendent Sullivan notified
the family and they were soon on the spot
The coffin was replaced in the grave and a
temporary canopy was erected over the de-
ceased.
Mrs. Schwartzs son and his father-in-law,
Mr.. Moore, returned to Bennington Wednes-
day afternoon. Mr.. Schwartz was notified
and left for Troy immediately.
The police Immediately began investiga
tions. They found wagon tracks in the road
near the grave and were of the opinion that
the persons who committed the act had gone
to the cemetery with the tools necessary for
grave digging. Mrs. Schwartz died rather
suddenly and some members of the family
entertain the idea that medical students are
responsible for the act Employees at the
cemetery intimated that the body may have
been dissected near the grave and then re-
placed in the ctflin. The family refused to
have the remains examined. Others think
that the grave of Mrs Schwartz was opened
by mistake and that soon as the ghouls
found they were wrong they left.

An American Discovery.
John Morrow, an Eminent Chemist, OF
Springfield, O., finds Remedy that
Promises to ReyOlutiOnize the Prac-
tiCe of Medicine

The present year will always be a notable
one In the history of the nineteenth centur!
for the many wonderful discoveries it re
cords. Every branch of science has mad,
great strides, the most remarkable of which
perhaps, have been made in the practice of
medicine. Now comes the information that
John Morrow, an eminent chemist of Spring
field, Ohio, has discovered q remedy thai
p omises to be almost infallible in curing al
diseases of the kidneys. so many of the mos
important advances of medical science
made by fore gn scientists, that such a re
rort is not only of great import but highly
gratifying as well.
Morrow's discovery, while the true ingre.
dients have not yet been published, is in the
form of a yellow tablet and is known to the
medical world as Morrow's Kidneoids.
1his remarkable remedy has been tried in
some of the most severe cases of chronic
and acute diseases of the kidneys, and IL
each case has qlickly produced the most
beneficial results.
The fact that death from Brights disease
shows n daily increase is an unple SAINT indi-
cation that disorder of the kidneys is fast
becoming an lfiiction of the human race
indeed a blessing to mankind.
The symptoms of deranged kidneys are too
apparent to require u physicians diagnosis;
ain in the side and uack, aching bones, a
continual feeling of languor, are followed by
impaired vision, loss of appetite, swelling
If the hands and feet, and so on until
Br1ghts disease gets hold.
1t is so insidious in its attack that the busy
! man or woman too often associates TIL
symptoms with some tritling ailment, until
the development of the disease causes q
complete collapse. With Morrow's Kidneoids
| it is intended to remedy all this by enabling
any one to stop the progress OF the disease
and effect permanent cure without re
| course to a physician or the abandonment OF
| their duties.
1t is said that one of the largest drug con
| Germs in the United States is negotiating fol-
| he absolute control of Morrow's Kidneoids
which they intend placing in every drug
/ without the necessity of securing a physi
| clans prescription.

To Nebraska by Boat.

Ernest Edison, aged Is, left Bennington
last Tuesday on u voyage to Nebraska, which
he hopes to make entirely by water. The
trip is to be made in boat 20 feet long two
feet wide, which Mr.. Edison has made in spare
hours after finishing his days work. He has
been at work recently as carpenter, and the
results of his work are the boat and 81 80,
which he took with him together with few
clothes in bundle. He proposes to earn
money enough while on his way for neces-
sary expenses.
His route as mapped out is through the
Walloomsac and Hudson rivers to Troy,
where he expects to get permission to go
through the Erie canal. At Buffalo he will
meet his father, who resides in Virginia, and
who is to attend the national Grand Army en-
campment. From there he goes through the
lake to Chicago, and from there the route is
not fully determined on.
The young man has a sister residing in
Nebraska who has promised to assist him in
getting an education, and as he had no means
with which to make the journey he conceived
this plan of reaching there. The distance is
over 1000 miles.

A Heroic Engineer.

During the recent rain which did so much
damage in Ashland and other points in New
Hampshire Engineer Fred Sargent of the
shifter which helps the freights up over Ash
land Summit is being congratulated on his
heroism in saving the lives of several train
men.
Tuesday night, during the rain, he had
helped a freight over the hill and was return
ing. just as the engine had crossed the cul-
vert which forms waterway for the Ames
brook, so called, the roadbed sank a foot be-
meath the weight of the engine, and derail-
ment was narrowly averted.
Mr.. Sargent sidetracked his machine and
hastily proceeded in the direction of Ashland
Summit, where special freight, closely fol-
lowed by the regular No. IL freight, were
making for Ashland and Plymouth at full
speed.
He had reached the spot where his engine
was felt to give way, but the water was cours-
ing five feet over the high railroad embark
ment down to Ashland village. Here he was
obliged to swim the brook, which was now IA
rushing river, and in doing so barely escaped
with his life. Crossing the stream he rushed
up the track to the summit just in season to
stop both t. aims.
The trainmen went to the scene of the once
surging river to behold in its place washout
large enough 10 have engulfed both trains,
which were only saved by the timely and
heroic services of Engineer Sargent.
