$40 p. m.-The civil governor has ad-

mayors of interior towns in the province:
1t being impossible to shelter In this
capital the hundreds or destitute and
needy people who are daily arriving from
different points in the province, 1t is i'm
perative that you should procure relief
and attend in your town to all those be-
longing there, obliging the neighbors to
relieve their wants as far as possible
without emptying your poor ineonsiderate-
ly into this city, which is already over
crowded with refugees from the entire
island who arrived during the war.
To fulfill that duty, il lacking means,
you should be able to ask for and md
them the same as other authorities else
where, being able to rise superior to the
obstacles thrown in the way. You should
encourage these people 10 seek their own
livelihood by returning to the fields, where
honest toll will support their bodies and
raise their spirits. now that they are able
to enjoy the blessings of peace, explaining
to them that by returning TO their farms
they Will be a thousand times better off
than as beggars in this city without hope
of support or Improvement Of their condi-
tion."

| hate ON Annexation.
Washington, Jan. 1i-The senate did
not make great progress with the Ha-
wai.an annexation treaty yesterday.
Several speeches were delivered. but in
every instance the speakers announced
that their remarks were merely prelim-
mary TO what they should say before
the close Of the debate. The executive
session opened with White on the floor,
but Stewart interrupted ard others cut
the California senator out OF the discus-
sion. Those who spoke were Stewart.
Frye and Morgan. Stewart supported
the treaty and was the first senator 20
, discuss the question Of sugar In con.
nection with the subject. He said all
the Islands had reached their limit in
the production Of sugar and for this
reason the rroaucers OF beet sugar and
| cane sugar need not be alarmed.
He said there were many natives Of
Hawaiian in California and that they
were well regarded there. White inter-
were well reSared there. White inter-
rupted Go ask~why IL the Kanakas were
so well thought Of they had not been
| consulted on the question OF annexa-
! ton. Stewart replied that throughout
| their history. up to recent years, they
had been anxious TO have their country
| become a part Of the United States, but
he didn't say how he knew that TO be
n fact. FRYE discussed the matter
briefly entirely from q military s,and-
point. and In favor Of annexation. Nor
gan made the principal speech OF the
day and occupied the time Of the senate
until IL adjourned. He will continue
today.
During his s?eech Morgan said he be.
lieved II was the intention Of President
Cleveland to have restored Queen Lii
fuokalani to her throne and after that
transaction TO haze opened negotiations
| for The annexation of the islands under
her reign.
Chandler wanted to know what au-
thority there was for this assertion.
Morgan replied that there vas no spe-
cial authority. but that he was express
ing his opinion.
White asked II this treaty was not q
trade with tie provisional government
and what was TO be done regarding rhe
natives srd their rights. Morgan said
;aat he had fully answered that ques-
tia In a previous portion Of his re-
marks. bat he would review the sub
jeet for the beneGt CT the California
sepa'or.
In the early part OF the present cen
fury. he said. Vancouver wen, to the
islands and ca his third Trip the then
king OF the islands. a native, said he
would cede them to Great Britain and
acknowledge the sovereignty Of Eng
land But Vancouver never returned.

As to the oft-repeatsd assertion that
the United States was trying to absorb
the islands without the wish of the
kanakas. Morgan said that for the last
100 years the government of the islands
and the people Of the islands were anx-
ious to secure sovereignty Of a strong
power and secure a local self-govern-
ment. He said that they were pict-
uresQue people who would be much

Death List at Fort Smith Grows-Hundred
and Fifty Buildings Wrecked.
Fort Smith. Ark, Jan. H.-The latest
official death hist shows total of forty
three lives lost in the tornado which
swept through Fort Smith Tuesday
night. Not less than seventy others
are injured, a large number Of whom
are seriously hurt. and several are ex-
pected to die. The work Of removing
the debris and excavation,of the ruined
buildings progressed yesterday. Two
bodies were dug from the ruins of the
Smith block. from which eleven had
previously been taken. The full extent
OF the storm may be comprehendei
from the fact that thirty-five miles
northeast Of the city a Quantity of tin
roofing from Garrison avenue buildings
was found.
An unknown woman was taken from
the ruins Of the Burgess hotel yes.er-
Cay and identified as Mrs. liza Ennis,
CT Elm Springs, Ark. Her brother is
missing. and il Is believed his body il
still buried in the ruins. One hundred
and fifty buildings were demolished and
VIII have to be rebuilt to accommodate

Pioneer Press from Butte says: Two
| terrific explosions in the tunnel for the
hume near the upper smelling works
N Anaconda were heard by the peo-
pie of that city Wednesday evening
about O'Clock, but no attention was
paid them. About / o'clock yesterday
morning Mr.. Jennings. one of the con-
tractors on the tunnel, went up there
and found the blacksmith shop at the
| mouth of the tunnel blown away. He
| called assistance, and when it arrived
1t was found that for thirty feet the
| timbers had been blown out of line and
| that further progress was blocked by a
monster cave-in which extended to the
surface. Then it was realized that the
five men who were working there at the
time OF Nle explosion had been proba-
abk killed and a large crew was put to
work to clear the tunnel. 1t is a mighty
| task and will take some hours to COM
plete.
No Hope Of SavinS the Men Alive.
The names of the men entombed in
the tuihnel are: Andrew FISCHER, Mike
Cozina. Mat Petritz. Mat Cozina and
Joe Mcleod. Of Butte. The work Of
rescue is being pushed with vigor in
short shifts. The cave-in of the Dit
above where the explosion occurred has
been stopped by timbering. The
best miners and timberman are
now at work driving a three foot drift
near the side of the tunnel. When this
can be completed it is hard to say.
There are no hopes of the men being
alive. Granting that all the men were
in .he face of the tunnel when the ex-
plosion occurred they would be only
los feet away in the wide tunnel. The
men not killed instantly are surely suf-
located. Hundreds Of people are upon
the scene powerless to do anything,
bu: watch and wait.
