which he was partner with his broth

tation on Hawaii was one in which the
McChesney brothers were largely inter
ested and the deceased has looked after
its affairs to a large extent. He went
over to Hawaii on the last trip of the
Mauna Loa. His brother in Honolulu
had been expecting business telegram
from him during the day and visited
the the telegraph office several times.
The telegram telling him of his broth

This declaration, made at the time
that the Senatorial Commission met
yesterday morning, settled once and for
all the matter of bringing up for re-
view the actions leading to the change
in the form of government in 1898.
Senator Mitchell, the chairman of the
Commission, in making the statement
further let it be seen that he thought
there would be speedy progress made,
and the results bore out his ideas.
Nor was this the only matter in
which speed was attained. The after
noon session was given over to the
Chamber of Commerce, their hearing
set for the morning being crowded over
on account of the Crown Lands state
ments, and there was little questioning,
the memorials becoming part of the
record. Several other matters were
brought out. among them the state
ments of the rice planters and that of
Americans imprisoned during 1895, the
committee in that case showing plainly
that they would not permit the intro
duction of any political phase of the

subject, but would instead go into the
general features alone.
There was little argument in the mat
ter of the Crown Lands, A. S. Hum
phreys, the attorney for the former
queen, calling attention to the face .hat
the various treaties had taken cogniz-
ance of her claims, and as well showing
that he called his witnesses from among
the spectators, as well as from the list
of men subpoenaed.
The examinations were conducted
principally by Senator Burton and were
limited in most cases to simple state
ments as to what is the general senti-
ment among the people of the Territory
touching an appropriation of money for
the former queen, and what effect such
an act would have upon the people of
the islands. The question put to all
the members of the Committee of Safe
ty was as follows:
Without reference to the questions
involved in the dethronement of the
Queen and the action of the Provisional
Government, the Republic of Hawaii or
the United States Government, in seiz-
ing the Crown Lands and other prop
erty belonging to her. what, in your

RAILWAY SIGNALS.
Northwestern Road to Adopt the Standard
Code.

The management of the Northwest
ern road has determined to adopt the
standard code of railway signals for
its entire system. The change will be
gradual, and will be made so that the
men will become accustomed to the
new rules in sections.
The first circular relative to the
matter was issued Tuesday by General
Manager Gardner and General Super
intendent Ashton, and provides that
on or after Feb. green signals will be
abolished in so far as their present use
indicates a special train and white
signals Will be substituted therefor.
This is one of the most important
changes affecting train operation, and
the management desires that the men
shall become accustomed to it before
other changes are made. The code
which is being put in is known as the
American Railway Association code
and one of the objects of this code is
to eliminate the use of the color red
except to indicate danger. When the
code is in operation upon railway
system display of q red signal in any
way necessitates an instant stop. at
present special trains carry on the en-
CINE pilot green flag by day and
green light by night to indicate that
they are specials, but hereafter the
green lights will be displaced by white
robably the next change will be in
the character of the light which is to
be used to indicate sections of trains.
In adopting standard code of sig
nails the American Railway association
ihad in view, among other things,
making it possible for railroad man
to work on any road in the country
without the necessity of learning new
rules when he changes his service.
Such a condition, it is recognized,
would materially lessen the probable
ity of accident.

Hardcastle Bound Over.

Dist. Atty. H. w. Brown went to
Platteville Friday to appear on behalf
of the state in the preliminary trial of
Ed. Hardcastle, the young man recent
ly captured by Sheriff Dickinson at
Deadwood, S. D., and brought back
to Wisconsin to answer to the charge
of assault with intent to commit
murder on VIM. Wellman, farmer
living in the town of Harrison, par
ticulars of the crime having been
detailed before in the Herald.
Hardcastle was taken before Justice
Trabor by whom the warrant for his
arrest was issued, but a change of
venue was taken before Justice White.
The defendant was attended by his
father, Rev. John Hardcastle of Min
eral Point and his interests were
looked after by Attys. Jas, Dolan and
j. w. Murphy.
After hearing the evidence in the
case the court bound the prisoner over
to trial in circuit court and bonds for
his appearance were fixed at $1,000,
which were secured by the father
without difficulty.
The case will come on at the regu-
lar term of circuit court this month.
Besides the counsel above mentioned,
Judge Aldro jerks of Dodgeville has
also been retained on behalf of the
defense, and signs point to a stubborn
fight before the bar of Justice.
