Had Many Grandchildren.

Rockfeld, Wis, Oct. 14.-TSpecial.l |
Frank Schwalbach, ST., born January 20,
1872, in Hessen Darmstadt, Germany,
died yesterday, at the advanced age Of
So years. He came to this country while
still a young man, having worked at his
trade as shoemaker seven years in Zurich,
Switzerland. On his return to his own
country he did not feel at home, but i'm
migrated to America in 1912, working at
his trade in New York, later in Milwau-
kee, where he was married, and finally
settled on his present farm, where h
has lived eyer since. Ten children were
born to the couple. His wife and one
child preceded him in death eight years
ago. Three sons and six daughters, al
grown up and comfortably settled, are
left to mourn his death. He had been
sick for almost a year and was very feeble
and entirely helpless. Up to that time he
always worked at his trade early and late
and was very much respected by all who
knew him. He was a particular friend of
the children Of the whole community,
who brought him their shoes for repair.
He leaves tifty-twO grand children and
eight great-grandchildren.

estimates, he said. these would show the
government fully alive to keeping up the
standard of the army and navy, though he
declared it was not creditable to Canada
or fair to English taxpayers that such a
colony should contribute practically moth
ing to the naval defenses of the empire He
hoped Canada would soon turn her atten-
ton to this matter, adding that he was
convinced that If she did not the day would
come when she would have "a rude aWak-
ening which would be entirely her own
fault
In concluding his speech the chancellor of
the excheQuer announced that China had
approached England for assistance to pay
the Japanese indemnity, and that the nego-
tiations were still pending. The newspaper
statements on the subject he characterized
as inaccurate and incomplete. The gov
eminent was not ashamed of these negota-
tons and believed the country would APP
prove them. He could see no reason why
foreign powers should object, but if the ne
gotations failed Great Britain would take
her stand on existing treaty rights.
Replying to a deputation of sugar re-
fnery Workmen that waited upon him to-
day. Sir Michael HickS-Beach said the gov
eminent had readily accepted Belgiums
invitation to a sugar conference and would
do it's best to secure a satisfactory result.
He added that he believed the feeling of the
country was so strong in favor of cheap
sugar that any proposal to prevent the i'm
portation of bounty-paid sugar would meet
with the greatest opposition.

Morgan had been convinced from private
interviews with the ex-President that he not
only believed in the wisdom of annexing
Hawaii, but that he would also have recon-
mended the annexation of Cuba under right
conditions. Mr.. Morgan took up the criti-
clsm of the present government Of Hawaii
defending 1t in strong terms and eulogizing
Mr. Dole as one of the most competent
rulers of the time. He reviewed Mr.. Dole'S
history, and said that that gentemans
record showed that he would be a credit
able head of any nation. He controverted
the idea that the present government was,
as had been charged, missionary govern
ment, claiming that 1t was in every way
stanch and enterprising and abreast of the
times. He said that the people naturally
sought a close alliance with the United
States because they had always had the
friendship and support Of the people of this
country.
Speaking of the resources of the islands
Mr. Morgan said they were manifold, and
that the time would come when they would
produce enough coffee to supply the de-
mands of ali the people of the United states,
while, he said, the sugar production had al
ready reached its limit. He estimated that
there were at least 5000 acres of land In
the islands adapted to the growth of the
rapidly developing. He thought at least
1900 tons of coffee would be exported from
the islands during the present year. He
concluded that the resources of the country
were such as to insure very prosperous
future, and predicted that Honolulu would
some time in the not distant future attain
to great commercial Importance, equal In
ali probability to that Of Hong Kong or
other cities of equal magnitude.

it is already evident that all former popu-

not eclipsed.

MIR. GLADsToNE's HEALTH.
Denial of RumOrs that the Aged
Statesman Is Critically Ill.


Statesman Is Critically Ill.
LONDON, Jan. 19.-Unfounded rumors
concerning the condition of England's
grand old man" were in circulation here
to-day. The Pail Mall Gazette this after
noon made the following announcement in
big type: with deep regret we learn on
most excellent authority that Mr.. Glad
stones health causes the gravest anxiety
to those about him. His sojourn at Cannes
has not had the effect of fortifying his
strength as anticipated" The placards of
the Pail Mall Gazette read, Critical con-
dition of Mr. Gladstone" The announce
mont caused much excitement until inquiry
developed the fact that there was no change
alarming bulletin. A dispatch from Cannes
said: The health of Mr.. Gladstone is fair
ly satisfactory. He went out for drive
yesterday" A reporter visited the residence
of Henry Gladstone. the aged statesman's
son, at No. Whitehall Court, 5. w. Mrs.
Henry Gladstone and George ArmiStead, an
intimate friend of the family, both said
there was nothing in the latest information
they had received to justify the alarmist
reports. Mr.. Gladstone has been suffering
from return of his neuralgia, but letter
received this morning said he was better
and that his physicians were SatlSled with
his progress towards recovery.
The Westminster Gazette, although mini
MIXING the alarming reports, is constrained
to admit the fact that Mr.. Gladstone has
suffered great pain most Of the time he has
been at Cannes, and been unable to leave
his sofa" Continuing, the Gazette remarks:
$50 far as the vital organs are concerned,
however, he is no worse. On the other hand
continuous pain in a man of Mr.. Gladstone
age is undoubtedly symptom to cause anx-
iety."
An official medical statement issued to-
night reasserts that there is no cause for
alarm as to Mr.. Gladstone's health, all
though it is not benefited as much as had
been hoped at Cannes. The facial neural
giac pains persist with daily fluctuations
owing to the cold winds and wet weather,
but the complaint is quite local. His physi-
is good; his appetite excellent; he joins the
family at meals and takes regular drives,
weather permitting. 1t is not true that the
Henry Gladstone will go to Cannes on
Saturday in accordance with an arrange
nel with whom Mr.. Gladstone is visiting,
teegraphed tonight at $40 o'clock that Mr..
GladStOne'S health was unchanged.

The HAWAIIAN TREATY.
Morgan Speaks Again, and Says
Cleveland Favored Annexation.


Cleveland Favored Annexation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Morgan
continued his speech in advocacy of the
ratification of the Hawaiian annexation
treaty in the executive session of the Sem
ATE to-day He announced at the conclusion
OF to-day's session that he probably would
require one more day in which to complete
his presentation of the subject. Senator
Morgan dealt to-day with the questions of
the agricultural and commercial possible
ties of the islands, with the character Of
the present government and with the posi-
ton of the residents of the island on the
subject of annexation. He repeated his as
sertion that President Cleveland was favor
able TO the acquisition of the islands, and
again expressed the opinion that it was his
intention to have restored Queen Liliuoka-
lani and TO have negotiated with her a
treaty of annexation. He elaborated his
views on this subject at considerable length,
saying that while ne believed it was Mr.
Cleveland's intention to have annexed the
Islands, he naturally changed his intention
to do this through the restoration of the
Queen when she made known her blood
thirsty disposition towards those who had
dethroned her He expressed the opinion
that Mr. Cleveland would never have taken
such positive position as he did take against

annexation but or he antago iStic and IN s.

Liverpool this evening against the attacks

The impotence of the European concert

superintendent Quigley's Instruc-
tiOns to the Police.

At police roll call last night Superintend-
ent Quigley read the new curfew ordinance
to the patrolmen assembled. After read
ing the ordinance the superintendent spoke
to the men about enforcing the law. He
said they were not to make arrests for a
week or two, until the people have become
familiar with the ordinance. The super
intendent cautioned the men about using
judgment in the enforcement of the law.
1t was his understanding, he said, that
where children are expected to go out at
night to attend church entertainments or
on errandS alone they would be supplied
by white badge which will be worn on the
breast. The superintendent made it plain to
the men that they are not to arrest children
found on the streets after o'clock with
out a reasonable excuse until further or

There is always more or less insincerity
to be noticed in every discussion of the
civil-service question, and it is apparent
that many members of Congress who criti-

privately in favor of retaining it. The ex-
perienced congressman prefers to be re-
lieved of the spoils burden, which in times
past prevented so many reflections. A

Speech in Favor of Annexing
the Hawaiian Republic.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 19.-Unattended
by civic or military escort with no firing
OF cannon or footing of whistles, President
Sanford f. Dole of Hawaii, departed from
San Francisco, as he arrived, with the same
lack of ceremony as would mark the move
ments of any traveller. He was driven down
s to the ferry at o'clock this afternoon in
a hack, which also conveyed Mrs. Dole, the
Presidents private secretary and Consul
General Wilder, of Hawaii. The boat which
connects with the departing overland train
leaves this side of the bay at o'clock, but
to avoid publicity the island president
crossed by an earlier boat and at the Oak
land mole Immediately sought the seclusion
OF the private car Gaudaloupe, provided for
ham by II. e. Huntington, assistant to the
president of the Southern Pacific Com
p8ny, and attached to the regular east
bbund train. Neither President or Mrs.
Dole left the car until after they departed.
The private car was specially provisioned
and equipped under the direction of Mr..
Huntington, that the little presidential
party might enjoy every comfort on its
trip across the mountains. The route to

morning was yet inhosptably gray. car
riages awaited him at his hotel to convey
him to The Washington-street wharf
where the steamer General Mcdowell was
ready to take the distinguished visitor to
the Preside reservation wharf. At the lat
ter point the military escort was waiting
to receive him and as soon as he landed
the prescribed presidential salute of TWEEN
ty-one guns was fired. Escorted by Briga-
der General Shafter, commanding the de-
partment of California, President Dole was
then shown the interesting feature of the
Preside and was given opportunity to
inspect the Notifications. After a review of
the troops stationed at the Preside Pres
ident Dole returned to town and was driv-
en- to the Pacific Union Club, where at l
o'clock he was the guest of Mayor James
d. Phelan at an elaborate breakfast. The
twenty-eight guests included representa-
tives of the principal civic and COM
mercial societies, representatives of
the judiciary, army and navy. The
hospitality extended by the mayor and
club occupied the greater part of the aft
ernoon. The President returned to his hotel,
where he rejoined Mrs Dole who having
had friends with her all day spent the ell
tire time resting, preferring not to go out.
