Twenty-Five Miles.
SO Badly Scared He Flees From
the State.

Fort Scott. May George E. Bowman,
an associate editor of the Appeal to Rea-
son. socialist paper. published at Girard.
and who was the socialist candidate for
lieutenant governor of Rhode Island two
years ago, has been compelled to flee from
Girard to save his life from mob of ciu-
zens incensed at an article he wrote for
that paper.
While sitting in the newspaper office he
was notified by a friend of the approach
of the mob, which had hemp rope, in
tending to hang him. He escaped through
the rear door and ran to this city, a dis
tance of twenty-five miles, without money
or baggage.
Chief Editor Wayland had grave fears
of a repetition of the Lovejoy affair with
his newspaper office.
The article which so incensed the people
referred to the national flag as a piece of
painted rag, tied to a stick. He was crit
icising the worship of the flag above the
regard for fellow creatures. Mr.. Bow
man came from Providence, r. L, about
a year ago. He has left here and is en-
route to Washington state.

New York. May "A most notable
change has taken place in public opinion

SETTLES COAL QUESTION.
Governor of Newfoundland Issues an
Edict.

ST. Johns, N. F., May 2.-The COVER
nor, Sir Herbert Ray, issued a royal
gazette extraordinary last night con-
tanning the following proclamation re-
ceived from the right Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain, imperial secretary OF
state for the colonies:
mo coal shall be supplied to any bel
igerent ships except for the specific
purpose of enabling them to proceed
direct to their own country or to some
other named neutral destination, with
reference to which the supply of coal is
given.
Coal should not be supplied at all if
there are reasonable grounds for sup
posing that it is in fact to be used for
another purpose"
The proclamation is regarded as pre-
venting the Spanish fleet from securing
coal here for an attack on American
coast cities.

A HAWAIIAN SCHEME.
It is All Arranged to Hoist the Amer
lean Flag at the Proper Time.

lean Flag at the PROPER Time.
New York, May "A special to the
Press from Washington says:
When President Dole of Hawaii left
this country recently. after his visit to
aid in the annexation proceedings be-
fore congress he carried with him the
draft of bill which promises to make
history 1t is for passage by the Ha-
waiian congress and provides, in the
event of a war in which the United
States may need the Hawaiian islands
for a base of supplies, that the islands
shall be put under the protection of the
American flag.
1t was prepared with the knowledge
of members of the senate committee on
foreign relations and had the approval
of the administration In certain condi-
lions. One condition was that it should
not be submitted to the Hawaiian con-
gress unless there was a war. When
President Dole left this country war
with Spain had not been declared, but
was deemed probable.
No conditions are to be imposed upon
the United States should the American
flag be raised over the islands. If
consideration was named, an appropri-
alton would be required which would
need congress action, and probably
cause complications. A majority in the
senate and house are in favor of the
annexation of Hawaii, and the project
has failed so far only through lack of
the necessary two-thirds vote in the
upper body. In an emergency the pres
ident of the United States can exercise
what is known as the war power"
He can accept the privilege granted
by the Hawaiian government for a base
of supplies in the Pacific ocean, and to
guard the islands completely the flag
of the United States would be raised
as a barrier against which foreign med
ding would not be permitted. 1t would
not surprise well-informed national
legislators to hear by the next steamer
from Honolulu either confirmation or
strong indication of the fulfillment of
this important news.
The operations of Commodore Dewey
in the Philippine islands are significant
in connection with the expected estab-
lishment of a protectorate or sovereign
ty. over Hawaii.
The Hawaiian islands are on a line
drawn from the Philippines slightly
northward to San Francisco. From the
PHILIPPINES to Honolulu the distance is
more than 1000 miles. From Honolulu
to San Francisco it is 2 100 miles. The
necessities of the United States demand
this resting place. British necessities
are so great in commerce that if the
United States does not control this Pa
cific station Great Britain must in self
protection assume control. Honolulu
promises to become the resort of a ire
mendous fleet of ocean steamers, most
ly British. All collier ships have to
stop there, and the present Hawaiian
government will not be able to main
tain proper police and sanitary condi-
lions. The expectation in the English
foreign office is that the United States
will respond to Hawaiis invitation.
England favors this course rather
than to permit another power to control
her line of communication with Aus
tralia. The British ministry has as
views with favor Hawaiian occupation
by America.

The First Bicvcle Baggage Car.

New York, May 2.-The first road to
equip a complete bicycle baggage car
and put it in practical use is the Long
Island Railroad company. 1t put into
service recently a car which is fitted
with specially made bicycle holders
placed in a row a few inches apart
along each side of the car, while regular
rows of hooks attached to the ceiling
hold an equal number of wheels In this
manner IA bicycles are conveniently
and safely stored away in a car 40 feet
long. No part of the wheels touch the
wall or ceiling, and the wheels are held
so firmly that sudden stops or starts
cannot dislodge or bump them.

Two Cents a Mile.

The Kansas railroads will bring the
volunteer troops into Topeka at the
rate of two cents per mile. Some of the
eastern roads have contracts with the
states to haul state troops for one cent
per mile but it is understood that all
the western roads will charge two cents
per mile. The law passed by the legis-
Iature in 1895 providing that state
troops should be carried by the rail-
roads for a. rate of one cent a mile has
been declared unconstitutional and will
have no weight in the transportation of
the volunteers.
