TO all eyes. beginning with those of the
small but noisy little board of little Eng
landers at home, that England is a great
er power in the world than ever before.
There will be 5000 troops under arms
today-quite as many as marched up the
Inter den Linden. in Berlin. after Prus-
sia,s triumph over Au1ria- There viii be
at Spithead on the coming Saturday such
a muster of battle ships as the world
never saw, and as no two, or perhaps
three, other European powers combined
could gather together. And these are
days when England has need to make il
understood of all the world that she has.

the fountain of life to these great states

service rules against collecting OF r.
coiving money Tor campaign purposes.
IL Il understood that the alleged Of

years ago. and that Dowiirr's part in

which had been collected by On. II his
deputies. The matter was only recent
~ brought In the attention of tho civil
service commission and an invcrti-a-
ton was at orc. set on foot with the
result that bowling was found guilty
OF receiving the money as stated.
The report Of the commission was
handed to the president day or two

TURTLE DENoUNCEs wEYLER.
Calls Him IN 'IndescribabIy Diminutive
Reptile" and a "Herod."

Washington. Jan. 26.-In the senate
yesterday Turpie characterized Captain
General Weyler as the Herod of Ha-
Vana, the murderer of women and chill
dren, and as an ''indescribably diminu-
tive reptile" These bitter words were
incident to Turpie's speech of two hours
on the Cameron Cuban resolutions. The
speech did not develop the criticism of
the secretary of state which had been
foreshadowed by /" .rpie's remarks last
week. as the senator confined himself
largely to a careful analysis of the
constitutional rights of congress. his
conclusion being that congress as rom
resentinS the people, had urinary
and paramount authority over recoyniz.
ing new governments
Turpie frequently turned aside from
his argument to pay a glowing tribu,a
to the insurgent government and i,s
leaders. General Naceo was eulopized
as hero, whose memory woula he
honored by the people of Cuba I.ibra
as the American people honored the
heroes of revolutionary days. In con-
nection with General Maceo's death tho
senator referred with bitter denuncia-
ton to Weyler. Turpie did not conclude
MS Speech
In arguing for the paramount RICH,
of congress in recognizing new govern
ments Turoie said there was close
analogy between the admission of a
new government. Congress had the
paramount power as to admitting n
state When it made a law admitting
a state that state must come in. The
president might withhold the proclama-
ton. might refuse to appoint officers,
but the law stood and the state must
ultimately come in And pending this
executive inactiOn congress had the
paramount power to name temporary
federal officers for the new state in or
der that the law should not be nullified
These and Ike powers and rights of
congress were primary, while that o.
the president was anciiiary and second.

EX-QUEEN ITLTroKAlkNr.


pretty little autographs note from her.
asking the favor of personal and un-
official interview with the president.
The note was couched in dignified and
appropriate language, and in support
| of her application il was stated deli
cately by the ex-Queen that in her ma
| tive land it was the Custom to receive
visits from persons visiting the country
for recreation.
The president upon being acquainted
with the request, very promptly sent
word that he should be pleased to re-
ceive an unofficial and personal visit
from the cx-queen, and set the hour
! of o'clock for the reception. This was
not the first time the president has met
Lilioukalani. for during his first admin-
istration she came to Washington while
queen Of the Hawaiian islands and was
received at the White House.
Her Majesty Lead, the Way.
At the hour named 4 carriage drove
up to the White House and from IL
alighted the ex-queen. Mr.. Palmer,
Joseph Heleuhe and Miss Kia Nahao-
Iona, the latter being lady companion
to II. NJ. Liliuokalani. The ex-qucen
was assisted from her carriage to the
doorway by Mr.. Palmer, but at that
point her attendants dropped in the rear
and she led the way alone across the
lobby and through the doors. which
we've thrown open by the ushers. to the
Blue Room, where the president soon
Joined her. The president greeted the
eX-queen in the most kindly fashion. ex-
pressing pleasure at her call and stat
ing that he should have felt disap-
pointed had she RETAINED from making
him visit while she was in Washing
ton. He caused her to be seated. and
while the others stood in the back
ground the president and Liliuokalani
chatted with evident interest on both
sides for twenty minutes.
Mrs. Cleveland Happened To he Out.
The eT-queen asked for Mrs. Cleve-
land. and the president responded that
she would be glad to see his visitor, but
message sent to Mrs. Cleveland to
summon her to the Blue Room returned
with the news that Mrs. Cleveland had
gone out walking. In all of the talk
there was no reference to politics save
brief expression of thanks by Liliuo-
kalani in behalf of the Hawaiian race
for his action in Withdrawing the an
nexation treaty which was pending be-
fore the senate when the president as
sumed his Office four years ago.
Not n Word About Restoration.
Not one word was said about "restor-
ation." either past. present or future
The ex-queen referred in feeling terms
to the death of Mr.. Willis, and the pres
ident responded by a euloGy upon the
late minister, whom he denominated "a
man of sterling honesty. never afraid to
do his full duty" With little further
talk of this kind the interview terrnina-
ted, and Liliuokalani returned to her
hotel with her attendants and Mr.. Pal
mer, greatly pleased at her reception.
