In connection with the cell Of Hal

his sentence for bigamy it is said that
it was formerly occupied by the En-
glish journalist, w. T. Stead, and the
novelist. Edmund H. Yates. The af-
fairs in which they were engaged, al
though they caused a tremendous
sensation at the time, are now almost
forgotten. Stead. it may be remem-
bered, was largely in the eye of this
country about six years ago as the
author of book, IF Christ Should

as so blasphemous the big news COM

suit was that new laws were proposed
and passed regulating the subject mat

them, however, Stead was guilty of a
technical violation OF the law. and for
this he had to undergo prison de-
tention for three months. The offense
for which Yates was imprisoned took
place in 1874 and consisted of an al
legged libel in his newspaper, the
World on the Earl of Lonsdale. While

but there was no answer, despite the
fact that the officers told him tile

The steamer Victorian arrived from

considerable excitement in the north
caused by the smallpox epidemic and
various settlements are taking every
precaution to check and wipe out the
disease. At Skagway the Indians
were driven out and strong guard
placed around the town to prevent
their return. One or two cases of the
disease exists among employees of the
Treadwell mine on Douglas island,
and, according to reports, it is thought
the big mining plant will have to shut
down.
Returning passengers report that
the mines of the Klondike are having
the greatest harvest in the history Of
the country, owing to the large abun-
dance of surface water which is being
utilized in sluicing dirt taken out dur
ing the winter months, and the yield
of the yellow metal exceeds the best
expectations of the mine owners.

TO GET RID OF DOLE
Hawaiian Territorial Legislature Asks
that Governor Be Removed.
A MEMORIAL TO THE PRESIDENT
A Problem That VIII Face the Chief
Executive on His Return-PresIdent
Dole Is Denounced as Hostile to
the Islands Best Interests.

HONOLULU, May 5.-(Via San
Francisco May 11.)-The first terri
torial legislature of Hawaii came to
an end the evening of April 80, ac-
cording to Governor Dole, and on the
next night according to the majority
OF both houses.
The legislature ended it's existence
at loggerheads with the governor all
along the line, and without having
passed single one of the important
measures to which the home rulers
were committed, except the county gov
rnment act, which the governor killed
by vest pocket veto.
The last act of the house the evening
of April 80 was to pass a concurrent
resolution containing a memorial to
President Mckinley asking for the re-
moVal of Governor Dole He is charged
with having hindered the work Of the
session by his hostility toward the leg
islature, Withholding information and
reports that were called for and refus-
ing to cooperate with the lawmakers.
The president is asked in the reso-
luton to use his influence in behalf of
an extra session of the legislature to
transact general legislation, which
Dole refuses to grant.
The Hawaiians claim they have not
had time in which to work out the
plans of lawmaking they had formed
in the thirty days of the regular ses-
sion.
In conclusion the home rulers ask
that Dole be removed, if the president
sees no other way to bring about an
extra session of the territorial legis-
lature, declaring that the governor has
acted in such a manner as to lose the
confidence Of a majority of the people
of the territory, and charging that he
has not dealt fairly with the home rule

The concurrent resolution passed

Governor Dole created a sensation
in both houses by informing the COM
mittee sent to him to ask for an extra
session that one of his reasons for not
granting an extra session was that he
had been reliably informed that brib-
cry was taking place.
Both houses passed a resolution de-
manding proof. In reply the governor
stated that general charges of bribery
had been made in the local papers and
on the floor of the senate, but had
not been investigated, in spite of the
appointment of committees to look
into them, and that the matter was
being investigated by the governor
with view to Furnishing the offend
ers if evidence against them could be
obtained.

Plow company, owning the second

not affected the plan of the trust as

ganization of the new combine sure.
No other farm implements but plows
and related lines will be made by

probably be the chief manufacturing
point.

is SUFFERING WITH A FfLON
This and the Long and Tedious Jour

VIII Rest For a Time Before Pro-
oeeding on Route Laid Out.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May 13.-
The sudden illness of Mrs. Mckinley
has caused an unexpected change in
the itinerary of President Mckinley.
He arrived in this city quietly, sew
eral hours ahead of the time sched-
uled. Tie state Of Mrs. McKinley's s
health was such that the president de-
cided to leave Del Monte and bring
his wife to this city Immediately to
the home of Henry T. Scott, where
she could have complete rest for few
days, and where a specialist could be
consulted if necessary.
A special Of two cars and loco
motive was made up from the presi-
dents special and at 1890 the presi-
dent, Mrs. Mckinley, Miss Barber, the
presidents niece, Secretary Cortelyou
and wife, Dr. Rixey and Mr.. H. T.
Scott and wife left Del Monte for San
Francisco, leaving the remainder of
the presidential party at Del Monte.
Only a few hundred people greeted
the president upon his arrival in this
city. His coming was not generally
known and only those who chanced
to see the bulletins posted by the
newspapers announcing that the presi-
dent would reach the city at p. m.,
awaited his train. The president, in
order to avoid the crowd that was
expected to assemble at the Southern
Pacific depot at Third and Townsend
streets, left the train with his little
party at Vauencia street, station in
the southern part of the city.
When the train, consisting of bag
gage car and the presidents special
coach, stopped at Valencia street, Mrs.
Mckinley was carried in a steamer
chair by two colored porters from the
private car to closed carriage in
waiting. She was heavily yelled and
the president and DIR. Rixey followed
closely. She was gently placed in the
carriage and the president and DR..
Rixey took seats in the same vehicle.
The president looked pale and serious.
The rest of the party took other car
riages. Mr.. and Mrs. Scott had ar
rived at their residence ahead of the
president and were waiting to receive
their distinguished guests. Mrs. Nc
Kinley was again lifted from the car
riage and placed in an invalid chair
and carried into the house.
Secretary Cortelyou when question
ed concerning Mrs. McKinley's con-
dition stated that there was nothing
alarming in her present indisposition
and that perfect quiet and rest for
few days would restore her to her
usual health. 1t was the impression,
however, Of those who saw Mrs. Nc
Kinley, that she is very i'll and that
her present state may result in an
entire change of the presidents pro-
gram.
Should his wife's health improve,
the president will carry out his in
tention to attend the celebration at
San Jose. If, however, her condition
is no better the president will not
leave his wife's side, but will allow
the cabinet officers and others Of his
party to represent him at San Jose.
