MUST WHIP JAPAN.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 16.-"I firmly
believe" said Gen. Lew Wallace, that
the next war we shall engage in will DO
with Japan. There is a country with
a fine naval equipment and a gooa
army, flushed with recent victories ana
a country spelling for fight. They need
a good thrashing and we are able to
give It. They have been landing troops
on the Hawaiian islands for a long time
under the guise of immigrants and
there is now a Japanese army of 40, 900
on the islands. Dole discovered the
scheme and has tried TO put a stop to the
secret landing OF this army, but the
Japanese already landed are there"
DO you mean to say, general, that
Japan will declare "a if we annex Ha-
wafi?"
We won't annex it. l am in favor
Of the annexation Of the islands, but
you will see that this administration
win not annex them. What we should
do right away is to take these islands
while they are being offered to us for
nothing. In Is years we shall be engag-
ed in a war to get them, If we don't an
mex them now. You will live to see
that war. l may not, but you mark my
words when l say hat you will see it.
Those islands which we can get for
nothing, will cost us untold money, for
there is nothing SO expensive as war.
Speaking about our engaging in
war" continued General Wallace, q
noticed in the papers the other day
that Congressman Hilborn of California
had. before some class in Chicago the
day before, lectured upon our military
equipment. and, although he is a mem
Der Of the house committee on naval af-
fairs, he made the statement that while
we had some vessels, we did not have in
this country enough powder to fire the
ordinary salutes. He made this state
ment to express the absurdity. in his
opinion. Of this country engaging in
war.
That fellowshould be disciplined for
that kind Of talk. He ought to know
that this country has concealed some
place in the Allegheny mountains
enough saltpeter to make all the pow
der we would need in a long war. That
statement was highly injudicious and
believe lot true. Even though true,
however. 1t but advertises our weakness
to the world and invites trouble. Con-
gress should appoint a committee to
have that utterance Investigated and IL
proved to be accurately reported, he
should be censured-even expelled from
the house. He is not fit to represent
any one"

THE HAW||AN TREATY,
SENATOR'S ARE NOW HOPEFUL
THAT 1T MAY BE RATr-
FLED.
Morgan. Money and German Of the De-
mocracy are Doing Active Prosely,-
ing Among Their Democratic
Brethren-Hoar and Morrill, Are
Now With the Annexationists.

Chicago, Dec. ia special to the
Record from Washington says:
There has been a decided change in
the situation of the Hawaiian treaty
within the last few days, and the mem
bers Of the committee IN foreign rela>
tons are quite confident of its ratifica>
ton.
Senator Hoar says he is not opposed
ITO the annexation of the Hawaiian ISL
ands as a territory, provided the rights
of natives are thoroughly protected. He
state, and will resist any attempt to
deprive the natives OF a fair share OF
the responsibilities and the privileges
Of government. He also says that I'M
der no circumstances will he antagon~
ize the policy of the president, and ex-
poets to have a consultation with him
wishes concerning annexation and 9TH
er subjects. Nor does Mr.. Hoar think
there is any intention on the republic
can side tn interfere with the republic
can administration of affairs. He con-
siders 1t the duty Of every loyal repub-
lican to stand with the administration.
Senator Morrill, 70 Vermont has also
been a skeptic on the Hawaiian ques-
ton, and was counted against ratifica-
ton, but like Mr.. Hoar, he is coming
around all right. Mr.. Hale, who was
also counted with the opposition, is
quite indignant, because he has never
wavered. This leaves Mr.. Pettigrew as
the only republican senator opposed to
annexation.
Senators German, Morgan and Money
have commenced active operations on
the democratic side and are making a
thorough V in behalf of ratifica-
ton. The action of the democratic
members Of the house in caucus in leav-
ing the Hawaiian question for each
member to vote according to his own
judgment, takes it out Of the list OF po-
litical issues and makes it easier for
Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. German to secure
votes. Although the fate OF the treaty
has seemed doubtful ever since the as,
sembling of congress, the prospect is
now more hopeful than it ever has
been.

LUETGERT TRIAL.
A Union vs. Non-Union Fight Injected
Into the Case.

Chicago. Dec. ia new element in
the Luetgert case, involving the old
fight between the union and non-union
labor, was injected in the course Of to-
days proceedings In the Luetgert trial
and may cause the work Of securing a
Jury to be begun anew.
At the opening of court counsel for
the defense challenged for cause Henry
Boarberg. the last man selected to hear
the evidence, alleging that he was in
tensely hostile to the defendant. Boar
berg admits the fact that he is not a
member of any union.
An afidavit from Albert B. Mallory,
a union pressman, formerly engaged by
the firm which now employs Mr.. Boar
berg, was presented. in which the am
davit declares that on NO less than a
dozen occasions Boarberg expressed
himself a. being in favor Of a rope for
Luetgert.
Judge Gary decided to institute an
Investigation. 1t y feared that the dis
charge Of Boarbers as . Juror will turn
all tAaags connected with the case
|topsy<urSy and that . new beginning
will have TO b made.

VERDICT AGAINST MR.. HALEY.
Judge Hallett Makes an Order in Fa-
vor of Routt County.

In the United States circuit court yes
terday Judge Hallett heard the two
cases Of the Haley Live Stock company
against the county commissioners and
other officials of Routt county.
The cases were first brought to trial
in the United States circuit court seven
years ago.. The Haley Live Stock COM
pany sued to SAG. $50. so. This
amount represented the alleged value
of cattle seized by Routt county for
taxes and afterwards redeemed by the
owners In this sum vas included $lO,>
500. set down as damages and expenses
incurred in gathering the cattle after
they had been redeemed.
The Haley Live Stock company Sc
cured damages in the trial of 1890.
This was reversed by the supreme court
Of the United States, which at that time
was ColOrado's only court of appeals in
federal cases. A new trial was ordered,
the supreme court setting forth thar
the money paid for the redemption or
the cattle was Haley's, and did not be-
long to the Haley Live Stock company.
In the trial before Judge Hallett yes
terday Attorney w. T. Hughes. for the
Haley Live Stock company, opened with
a statement OF facts which the plaintiff
expected to prove. Without waiting to
hear a single witness Judge Hallett in
structed the jury to return a verdict In
each case for the defendants, allowing
them the costs. This action was taken
by the court on the ground that MIR.
Hughes statement of facts was the
same as that in the former trial, upon
which the United States supreme IL
had already passed. No notice of ap-
peal was given.-Denver Republican.

REFUNDING OF THE MA
TIONAL DEBT.
At Greatly Reduced Rates of Interest,"
The New Bonds. Bearing az Per
Cent. Redeemable in Gold-Notes
Under $40 to Be Retired From Cir
culation.

Washington, Dec. 16.-Secretary
Gage appeared today before the COM
mittee on banking and currency of the
house of representatives to present a
bill embodying his views Of the revis,
ion of the currency, to explain and urge
its provisions, and to meet any objec-
tons raised by the committee. the Sec
rotary was accompanied by Judge o.
Connell, solicitor Of the treasury.
Copies of the s%ecretary's bill were hand
ed to members Of the committee and
were scanned with great interest. At
ter being introduced to the various gen.
slemen of the committee, Mr.. Gage be.
gan his statement. speaking in an easy
conversational manner and following
notes.
He said in the opinion: THE OBJ
jects have in mind in the series Of the
pr%ovinsions offered by me are four in
number:
"First-To commit the country moro
thoroughly to the gold standard; re-
move SO far as possible doubts and fears
on that point and thus strengthen the
credit of the United States both at home
and abroad.
"Second-To strengthen the treas,
ury in relation to it's demand liabili-
Ties, in which are included greenbacks
and treasury notes, and the incidental
obligation to maintain on a parity,
through interchangeability with golc,
SO far as may be necessary. the pres
ent large volume of silver certificates
and silver dollars.
"Third-To do this in such a way as
not to contract the volume Of circula-
ton in the hands Of the people.
"Fourth-To take an initial step to-
ward a system of bank note issues with,
out the condition deposit Of public
bonds as security therefor. II we pros
per as a people. the of the gov
eminent ought to be something in ad-
n Of its expenditures. and the pub
lie debt of the United States be grad
ually reduced and finally extinguished.
Looking at the question widely, from
my best point OF knowledge and expert
ence, l feel that II these could be Sc
cured, the condition Of the government
in its relation to the currency would BE-
much safer and stronger than now, and
that through the operation of national
bank note currency the commercial
and industrial interests Of the United
States would be greatly advantaged."

REDUCTION IN HOURS.

A special from Omaha to the Denver
Republican says:
This morning notice was posted In
the Union Pacific shops Of a reduction
OF working days from five to four a
week, and of hours Of from eight to
seven. The reduction is effective in all
shops on the system, and takes place
at once. The notice was entirely unex
pected, and came so suddenly that the
men were called off work at 4 O'Clock
this afternoon, instead of at 5. as has
been the case. The reduction amounts
to a virtual reduction Of 80 per cent in
wages.
Ar official says that the reduction is
a saving of $40, 900 a month to the COM
pany, and was caused by a slump in
business.
