Pacific Coast Defense.

WASHINGTON, March l2.-In mak- ing preparations for the possibilities of the future, the Navy Department has by no means overlooked the strategic defense of the Pacific coast. To guard properly this important seabOard, 1t has beeu found nec- essary to send an advance guard some distance down the s8uj hern Pacific ocean. The battleship Oregon sister of the Indiana, and one of the most powerful vessels in the Bavy, has been selected for this work. Secretary Long today tele- graphed orders to her commander to leave San Francisco and cruise down the southern coast. The yes sel will report from time to time by cable to the navy department and receive such instructions ls change n conditions may warrant.

Poor, Disappointed Pauly Solves the
Great Problem

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 3-Disap-
pointed by his inability to solve the
problem of aerial navigation, Max
Pauly, a machinist employed by the
Union Iron works, put a bullet through
his heart today
Pauly, who was born in Saxony 40
years ago, had travelled extensively all
over the world. and wherever he went
he carried with him models and plans of
an airship in which he declared he was
able to navigate through the air.
In many places he succeeded in en-
unable to solve the problem and those
who knew him came to look upon him
as an eccentric character.
Last year he was in Salt Lake City
and built an airship which he claimed
would carry him over the city.
on the day Pauly was to demonstrate
the success of his invention a large
crowd of persons gathered to see the eX-
hibition, but Pauly met again with
failure and was heartily ridiculed.
From that time he became morose
and his actions clearly indicated that
his mind was unbalanced. He wrote a
number of letters to the German con-
sui in this city claiming that unknown
parties were trying to injure him.
Pauly reached this city last year and
secured employment as machinist at
the Union iron works.

A Rough Passage

NEW YORK, Feb. 3-The White Star
Line steamer Teutonic. Captain Gamer

and Queenstown after very stormy
voyage. For three days after leaving
Queenstown the Teutonic experienced
succession of fresh southerly gales
with heavy cross seas: on January 31st
the gale increased until 1t blew with
cyclonic force, accompanied by snow.
After nearly twenty hours the storm
subsidized into fresh southeast gale, then
shifting to westerly gale, and lasting
up to the time of the steamers arrival
at Sandy Hook. The Atlas Line steamer
Alps and the Norwegian fruit steamer
Douglas were the only arrivals from
West India ports this afternoon. Both
ships experienced very heavy weather

Japan is watching the situation in

"The proposal to increase the Japan

We should not hesitate, however, to
make the necessary sacrifices if circum-
stances demand it. We are, however
stronger than ever before"
The marquis said he thought the re.

mere politicians and elect representa-

A REASON GIVEN
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.--(By thu
| Associated Press.) Japan has beer
removed as an element in the oppo-
sition to the conSummatioh of the an
nexation of the Hawaiian Islands by the
United States. This result has been at
tanned by the conclusion of an agree
ment between our government and that
of Japan, as represented by Minister
Toru Hoshi, which by practically set
tling the status of the japanese in Ha-
waii, removes the only substantial diff
ference that has existed between the two
governments.
The Japanese government, for it's part,
announced some time ago that it nj
longer cared to interpose any objection
to the annexation of Hawaii based on
principle. Since that time the cores
pondence between Mr. Hoshi
and the State Department has
been directed to a satisfactory settle
ment of the status of the resident Japan
ese in Hawaii and this last point has
now been adjusted, 50 far as the execu-
tive branch of our government is capa-
BILE of acting independently, the agree
ment being reduced to the shape of a
written memorandum.
The exact basis of this agreement has
not yet been made public but the general
scope of 1t is understood to be a recog-
milton of the rights of Japanese in Ha-
vaii to claim equal rights with japanese

The Anti-Scalping Bill Recommended
for Passage

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-The senate
committee on interstate commerce to-
day authorized a favorable report on
the anti-scalping bill with amendments
the most important of which was Of
fered by Senator Tillman relating to
railroad passes:
THAT giving free transportation to
persons or property, except as allowed
by section % of the act to regulate COM
merce, approved Feb. 4, 1887, shall be
deemed an unjust discrimination under
section of said act, and shall be pun
iShed as provided in section 10 of said
act, and in addition to the penalties up
on individuals provided in section 10.
the corporations which may be guilty of
such offense shall be punished by fine as
in said section provided.
THAT all free passes issued by or on
behalf of any railroad corporation sub
be signed by some officer of the cor
poration authorized by vote of directors
to sign the same and every such rail-
road corporation shall keep record
showing the date of every free pass, the
name of the person to whom it is issued,
the points between which the passage is
granted and whether single trip or
time pass, and if the latter the time for
which it is issued, and this record shall
at all times be open to the interstate
commerce commissioners or to their
representatives, who may be duly au-
thorzed in writing to examine the
same"
The house bill was used as a basis of
proceeding, and section of that bill
was amended so as to remove all re-
strictions as to the person to whom d
ticket holder may sell his ticket. Orig
inally the person to whom the ticket
could be sold must be zone who would
in good faith personally use it in the
prosecution of a journey" This clause
was eliminated and the proviso was
left to read as follows:
THAT the purchaser of a transferable
ticket in good faith for personal use in
the prosecution of a journey shall have
the right to resell the same
Section was also amended so as to
reduce the penalty for the first offense
against its provisions from $1,000 to $500;
to eliminate all provisions for imprson-
ment and provide a penalty of $1,000 for
the second offense

moneys advanced for raising troops dur
ing the war of the rebellion by Califor-
MIA, Oregon and Nevada. Provision is
also made for the adjustment of claims
of fifteen other states amounting in the
aggregate to $780,, ,260, which are the re-
suits of expenditures made by the vari-
Gus states in equipping troops during
the war of the rebellion.
MRS. ROBERTS CASE
The senate committee on civil service
held an executive session today to con-
slider the matter of the dismissal from
the pension office of Mrs Roberts, whose
case was brought to the attention of the
senate by Senator Allen. The commit
tee has received a letter from Pension
Commissioner Evans. endorsed by Sec
retary Bliss, in which he said there were
no charges against Mrs. Roberts. Sen
ator Allen was present when the letter
was considered by the committee today,
and the statement was semi officially
made after the close of the meeting that
he was satisfied with the reply and would
not further press his inquiry into her
dismissal.
ANNEXATION
Senator White said today after the in
PRODUCTION of his resolution for non-in-
tervention in Hawaiian affairs by other
powers that he would call the resolution
up tomorrow and ask the senate to pass
it without debate. He added that it was
his opinion that our intention to defend
the independence of the islands has been
made sufficiently clear in the past, but
that it would do no harm to reaffirm the
doctrine by congressional declaration at
the present time.

The document, which has not been
generally taken into account in the con-
sideration of means for adjusting the
questions that have arisen over the
status Of Japanese in Hawaii, goes into
effect in July next year, and among
other things it confers upon Japanese
within the territory of the United States
all of the rights accorded to the citizens
of the most favored nation, which of
course carries with 1t rights of natJral-
ization and the exercise Cf the rights Of
franchise. Presumfng that annexation
is effected the Japanese in Hawaii will,
in 1892 have the same rights as those in
the present limits OF the United States.

must elapse between tha ratification Of
