County Judges Suffer Imprisonment Rather ‘Than Order a Tax Levy. Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 10.—County Judges | B. F. Copenhaver and Thomas Nevitt of St. Clair county, who are under sentence of con- finement in the Jackson county jail for con- tempt of the United States court in refusing to order a tax levy to pay outstanding bonds of the county, returned to their quarters in jail. They had been home on a furlough on the con- sent of Judge Phillips. It was a sad mission that took Judge Co- nhaver temporarily from the jail to his ome. His daughter Caroline, aged twenty- two, had become a raving maniac, and it ‘was to send her to an asylum that the jndge visited St. Clair. The young woman's reason began to fail eight years | ago, when her father was in Jefferson City, imprisoned by order of the Inte Judge Krekel for exactly the same thing for which Judge Phillips has cut off his liberty at present.

Four Men Instantly Killed by an Ava- COLORADO laneh Dexver, Cor, Feb. 10.—All railroads are badly blocked by snow and trains are seriously delayed. At Ouray, Col., an unusu- ally heavy snow storm has prevailed for two days, blockading the Silverton railroad and cutting off communication with the towns of Red Mountain and Ironton, besides block- ing many of the trails to the mines. Suow slides are numerous and fatal to life and much damage bax been done. ‘ Last night word was received of a terribie avalanche that occurredgbetween Ouray and Porter. Four men were instantly killed and_ it will probably be months before their bodies can be recovered. They were teamsters and were in charge of four teams, all of which were buried and destroyed. ‘The names of the killed are John Swan, Martin White, Hank Metcalf and one unknown.

The bearr were still aggressive, especially in the stocks with aninter- national market, but London was a moderate buyer, and one of the houses which was to sinp gold tomorrow is going to send bonds instead, and the estimates of the shipments, therefore, have Deen materially reduced.

He Will Represent the Independent Allies of the Democratic Party. tock, 997,238 bushels; SOME EXCITEMENT IN DEMOCRATIC RANKS AT THE ANNOUNCEMENT—TR¥ POLITICIANS THINK 1T UNJUST TO THE PARTY—INDIANA DEMO- CRATS THINK IT WILL STRENGTHEN MR. CLEVELAND. It is positively settled that Judge Gresham is to go into the cabinet of Mr. Cleveland. The declaration that he is surely to be Secretary of State is overstating the case a little, inasmuch that is not positively settled, though there is little doubt of that being the office he will fill. The things settled are that he is to go into the cabinet and that he is to be regarded as the representative of the i dependent allies of the democratic party. DEMOCRATS AGITATED. ‘The statement, coming in a way to carry conviction, that Judge Gresham is to go into Mr. Cleveland's cabinet has greatly agitated the democrats in Congress. ‘This coming immedi- ately after the fight over silver, which has strained the relations between a section of the party and Mr. Cleveland, has excited a great deal of apprehension on the part of some. There are many democrats in Congress who speak with grent autisfaction of the selection, but the great mass of old line working politi- cians accept the statement reluctantly, and shak- | ing their heads over it, say that it is’ an injus- tico to the democrats of the country and that they fear that it means that there is not going to be all the harmony there should be between the new administration and the rank and and file of stalwart democrats. Indiana men spenk favorably of the selection. Representative Brown, who is one of the strongest democrats in the Indiana dele- gation, said that he was so pleased with the ap- pointment that it seemed to him to be too good to be true. Judge Gresham, he said, was one of the ablest men in the country, one of the most popular among men of all parties in Indiana, and I do not think that he was ever anything bute democrat in principle on all important questions that divide the two parties, His se- lection will meet with almost universal favor among Indiana democrats. ‘The postmaster of the House, Mr. Dalton, who is one of the best informed democrats of Indiana, speaks in the highest terms of the se- lection, and says that his only fear is that it | may not turn out true that the selection is | made, He says that it would be impossible to make a better selection. NOT JUSTICE TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. Representative Tarsney said *he did not think Judge Gresham's appointment would be jus- tice to the democratic party. Representative Heard said that if the state- ment were true it would be a great surprise to him and to democrats generally. He would not undertake to say that it would not bea good selection, but it would certainly be very surprising. Representative Fitch of New York said that he hoped there was no doubt about the selec- | tion having been made—that ho regarded | it as one of the best possible appoint-| ments Mr. Cleveland could make. “There is nothing.” he said, “in the talk of his not being a democrat, of his having too recently come from the republican party. ‘That is the way they used to talk about me. When I left one Congress, to which I had been clected asa republican, and came back to the next Congress asademocrat there was a great deal of tulk about my not being: a democrat, but I am a democrat, and no one questions it now, as far as I know.” MR. OATES EXPECTED A DEMOCRAT. Representative Oates said: I have not be- lieved up to thie time that it was possible that Judge Gresham was to be appointed. I bad thought a democrat would be appointed. I read Judge Gresham's letter explaining his vote for Mr. Cleveland and in it he said that he was a republican and hed always been one, but that he differed with the party on the tariff question.” Representative Bynum said: “‘I like the selec- tion and it will be received by most of the dem- in Indiana with great favor. A small faction will not like it, but most of the democrats and many besides will be greatly pleased. Judge Gresham'will make a great cabinet officer and will be very aap’ in that position. His appointment will be a good thing for the democrats of Indiana and will burt the republicans greatly. Representative Mitchell said simply: “It is certainly a surprise.” Representative Andrew said: “I dou’t be- rc THE BEST OF THE INDEPENDENTS. Mr. Castle said: Judge Gresham is fit for « position in Mr. Cleveland's cabinet or any other man’s cabinet, but I had not thought of his" being appointed. I suppose Cleveland should give recognition to the inde- | pendents who supported him, and they may | Eaves claim to cabinet position. Judge m is certainly the best representative of them.” Representative Cowles said: “I am willing to leave that matter to Mr. Cleveland. 1 hope it will turn out all right.” Representative Bryan said: “Judge Gresham is an able man and Ihave no doubt will di charge the duties satisfactorily. I'am sur- prised, if this is true, at ‘the selection of a man who is not clearly recognized asa demorrat, but there is no podsible objection to Judge Gresham as a man.” MR. COMPTON REORETS 17. Representative Compton said: “I regret it if it is true that this selection bas been made, because I cannot help believing | undera democratic administration, without the selection of one who bat a few months ago ins letter explaining his vote for Cleveland, said that he was not a democrat.” 6 +e. ‘Taran or tHe Derrorr.—the cruiser De- troit, building at Baltimore, will have # pre- liminary trinl in Chesapeake bay tomorrow.

ALE ma Walting for Detailed Advices From Mr. Stevens—Great Britain Said Not to Care | Anything About It—Conference Between Mr. Thurston and Mr. Foster, > There were no developments in the Hawaiian | situation at this end of the line this morning. | No further information was received | by either the Department of State or| the Navy Department or the Hawaiian | commitsioners from San Francisco and no is expected until the arrival of the mails brought by the Australia from Honolulu. It is | regarded as probable, however, that along the line from San Francisco to Washing- ton Mr. Cook, one of the advisory counsel of the provisional government, or Mr. Neuman, who comes to represent tho lately deposed queen, may have something to say that will throw additional light upon the situation of affairs in the islands. Mr. Thurs- ton had an interview this morning with Secre- tary of State Foster, and in the course of the afternoon the entire body of commissioners will meet the Secretary in conference at the State Department. INFORMALLY BEFORE THE CABINE The Hawaiian questioa was before the cab- inet again today, but was considered in an in- formal manner only, as the case has not yet reached a point for the action of the President. Secretary John W. Foster had a conference on the subject with the President early this morning before his conference at the State De- partment with Mr. Thurston, NO INSTRUCTIONS SENT YET. As Seeretary Foster was on his way to the White House to attend the cabinet meeting ho was met byaSrax reporter, but declined to discuss the situation further than to say that there have been no new developments and that ng further instructions will be sent to Minister Stevens before the 15th instant, which is the dato of sailing of the next steamer for Honolulu. He mentioned this fact, he exptained, merely to show that it would be a waste of time to at- tempt to hasten action in the matter, WAITING FOR FURTHER ADVICES. The action of our minister in establishing a protectorate without reference to the wishes of the authorities at Washington was about the only feature of the ques- tion touched upon at tho cabinet meeting today and itis understood that judg- menton that point will be suspended until after the arrival of the — minister's mail —advies due here next Wednes- day. It is believed, however, that his course will be sustained unless subsequent eventa prove that it was uncalled for and ill advised. The impression now, however, is that the status quo of the case ix. practically the same as when the provisioual government was extab- lished and that if Mr. Stevens has committed this government further than was contemplated in his general instructions it was the only <ourve open for him under prevailing condi- tions, GREAT BRITAIN'S ATTITUDE. While not so stated in his telegram it is be- lieved that his action was sanctioned, or at any rate not antagonized, by the representative of Great Britain or of any other country in interest. Yesterday's dispatches settle the question of Great Britain's position in the matter and show that there is no truth in the report thatthat country has protested against the action of the U, 8. government in the premises. An official of the State Department said today that the British minister hae not communicated with the department on the subject, and he believed that that government really takes very little interest in the matter. THE MOHICAN. Itis said at the Navy Department that the U. 8. 8. Mohicen will probably join the Boston at Honolulu Sunday or Monday and that Ad- miral Skerrett will then relieve Capt.

Some interesting gossip relating to the his. tory of some of the persons who are promi- nent in Hawaiian affairs at the present juncture has been told by an old resident of the island who is now in Washington, The John E.

Mr. Bush in recent years at least has been an annexation- ist of the most pronounced type, and the commissioners of the provisional gov- ernment in this city were not a little amused today at tho admi | Mr. Bush made in an interview in San cisco yesterday that annexation with the United States would benefit no class of the residents of the Hawaiian Inlands so much ay it would the native population. HOW UNCLE AM HELPED KALAKAUA. ‘The whirligig of time brings about queer changes. A prominent official said this morn- ing, speaking of the Hawaian matter: ‘Mr. Colburn, recently minister of the in- terior under the deposed queen, and Mr. Neuman, the queen's special representative, plain bitterly of the landing of the United States forces to support the establishment of and to protect “the provisional government. When Kalakaua was elected king of the islands a large proportion of the native population violently opposed his coronation for the reason that he was not of pure royal blood. There was in addi- tion to this ground of opposition to Kalakaua’s coronation a conviction that his election had been procured by means that would not bear close investigation. His supporters, fearing that without assistance they would be unable to seat him upon the throne, called upon the forees of the United States men-of-war then in the harbor to pro- tect the adherents of the new king from at- tacks by outsiders, and it was due to ther presence that Kalakaua was en- abled to begin his reign, And now that the forces of the same country have been in- voked to end the dynasty thus ‘instituted there is a great how! raised about outrage and usurpa- tion of authority and tyranny. It makes a dif- ference whose ox is gored.” KALAKAUA'S ANCESTRY. Kalakaua’s ancestry was not of a character that most people would enjoy. “His grand- father,” said the old Hawaiian resident, “was harged in 1842, I think it was, and I witnessed the execution. The ald man was desirous of getting Hid of chia» wife and had hired 9 native to poison her. The crime creat great sensation in the island and the mis- sionaries insisted upon a trial in the regular form provi by the laws of the United , States. trial was held aboard one of the United States vessels then in i | | mission, the commissioners believe, is to pre- | sent to the press of the Pacific coast the views the Hawaiian par- Tiament ‘of $40,000 or 850,00) n year, besides which she has derived an income of at least as much more from the crown estates. Whatever provision is made for her as compensation for the loss of her station and revenues, it will, doubtless, be on a much more modest basis, ‘THE SECRETARY OFFICIALLY INFORMED. The Secretary of State has been finally ad- vised in official form that the Hawaiian Islands are now under tho protection of the United | States government. ‘The information was con- tained in the following dispatch from Minister | Stevens, received at a inte hour Inst night: | “Honoieiy, Fee, 1. via Sax PRaxciaco, Car, | Fes. 9.—Necretary of State: Provisional gov- | ernment of Hawaii gaining power and respect.

Dispatches by mail, with full detaila. STEVENS.” The statement in yesterday's Star that Min= ister Stevens had acted entirely on bis own re- sponsibility in this matter and without specific | instructions from this government was con- | firmed by Secretary Foster last night. He said | the action of Minister Stevens in declaring the | Hawniian Islands under the protectorate of the United States was taken without instructions from the Department of State. In fact, the movement for the change of government was unexpected and had not been anticipated at Washington. Mr. Stevens had undoubtedly acted as he thought wise and best on the emer- gencies of the case and it would be unfair to judge his conduct in advance of the receipt of full report, now in the mail to Washington. ‘The instructions given by the department to Mr. Stevens in the telegram of the 23th ultimo, already published, approved his recognition of the provisional government. He had been in- structed generally to protect American citizens | and property. Secretary Foster said inst night | that American citizens were the owners of at | least three-fourths of the entire real and per- | sonal property of the islands, and they were more interested than all other residents in the preservation of peace and good government. COMING TO WASHINGTON. ‘The Hawaiian commissioners have received a | telegram from Charles M. Cook announcing his | arrivalat San Francisco with dispatches for them from the provisional government. He was asked to bring the dispatches with him to| Washington, and he is expected to. reach here | next Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Cook is a member of the advisory council of the provis- ional government. He was prominently men- tioned for a place on the commission sent to | the United States and will doubtless act with the members of that body upon bis arrival. ‘Thé commissioners were also iuformed that Mr. Neuman and Prince David were accom- panied trom Hongluta by John E.

Thurston, with the approval of his associate commissioners, has made a repl: to the statements made in ‘the letter from F. Colburn, ex-minister of the interior of th Hawaiian cabinet. He denies the claim made by and on behalf of Queen Liliuokalani that the late Hawaiien government yielded to the force of the United States when she surrendered to the Hawatian provisional government and that the whole movement was a preconceived con- spiracy in favor of annexation. pete cole ee GETTING GOLD WITH BONDS. A Story Which Was Denied at the Treasury _ Department. It was stated today on seemingly good au- thority that Secretary Foster is now issuing bonds, or certificates to be converted into bonds, in order to replenish the stock of gold | in the treasury. The issue, it wassaid, was made | under the provisions of section 5 of the re-| sumption act and over fifty millions are to bg issued. It was represented today that it was the purpose of the department to have the bonds issued and the gold in its possession be- | fore public announcement of the issue is made, and therefore Secretary Foster would not give out the facts. Henry W. Cannon was here on Sunday and it | is said that before noon Monday all plans had | been completed for tlie placing of the full vol- ume of bonds to be issnedand the department began at once to carry out the plan, the pur- pose being not to put the bonds into’ the open market. | The authority reterred togava,that the state- | ment that gold is being secured by exchange with the bunks of greenbacks for gold discloses | only one feature of the transaction and | aids in the concealment of the rest until such time as it is considered by the | department to be wise. from a business point of view, to disclose the whole plan. The greenbacks that are in-the hands of the govern ment or coming in from time to time do n {amount to what is regarded as sufficient for the present emergency. and the ex- jehange is but a temporary expedient. Starting with £50,000,000, the plan, ax outlined tow Stan reporter, contemplates the issue of as much more as the circumstances demand, even up to the limit of the entire amount of outstanding greenbacks, provision for the re- demption of which gives the excuse and legal authority for the issuance of the bonds. * ‘The Statement about the issuing of bonds was denied emphatically by Secretary Foster this afternoon, ————————-o—___. THE GARBAGE CONTRACT, ‘The Contract to Be Carried on by the Na- tional Sanitary Company. Contractor Clark wants to give up his gar- bage contract. He wants to transfer it to the National Sani- tary Company of Baltimore, which has recently erected in this city a large plant for the de- struction of garbage. It will be recalled that when Mr. Clark first undertook this contract it was claimed by many that he was only acting as the agent of the Na- tional Sanitary Company of Baltimore, and that they really were the contractors. This, however, was not the fact, although they were somehow connected with ‘Mr. ‘The latter used the steel carts of the Sanitary Company and to furnish it with all garbarge collected.

Howard J. Schneider stands sentenced to be hanged one week from today, the 17th instant, but, as was stated in Tue Stan several days ago, there is no probability of the man being executed on that day, even should the Court in General Term, which is now inquiring as to the mental condition of the prisoner, decide that he is sane. It is not unlikely that the decision | of the court as to the man's mental condi- tion will of necessity be delayed until after the day set for the execution. Hence it is understood that Schneider Will be brought before the Criminal Court some time between now and Friday next for the pu to such a day as will it the Court in Gen- feral Term to give to the easel the time necer- sary in reaching a conclusion.

Mr. Christian Schneider, a brother of the Prisoner's father, was the first witness called | by the district attorney this morning. He said Gottlieb Schneider was some years older than | witness. He eaid he was as intimate with his | brother as one brotber usually is with | another. He said his brother's health comparatively good, and until about year ago his brother visited his (witness’) | store every now and then. He came alone and | would converse intelligently and upon general | subjects. His memory was particularly good, better than that of witness many times. Some- | times he would become excited, generally on | the subject of the late war. Witness never con- | sidered his brother to be insane, although he was childieh in his ways. Witness remem- | bered his vrother's stay on the Maryland farm, | but never knew him to have any delusion, | Sometimes he would use very profane language, | something very unusual in his brother's con- duct. His physical condition was good, | though be was somewhat pale from remaining | in the house for the greater part of th time. His eyes were bright. Wit- ness never noticed anything irrational or | wandering in his brother's conversation. His brother readily recognized his acquaintances, | | and witness believed that he never was unable | | to transact business, Witness had four brothers. | None were ever insane. Never heard any talk | in the family of his brother Gottlieb being in- sane. wi CROSS-EXAMINED. To Mr. Mattingly Mr. Schneider said that his brother before he ceased business was a quiet, | industrious man of an inventive faculty. His brother worried a great @enl during the war in | connection with @ contract with the govern- | ment for furnishing fuses. His sister bad told | him that his brother would grow very excited | at times and would use loud and profaue lan- guage. He supposed they took his brother to the country because of his health. Since going | out of business in 1862 witness had not kno’ | of his brother engaging in business. He was com- | fortably fixed,and witness never personally knew why his brother ceased business. He supposed it was because of his health. His brother's mental impairment was never talked of by the family to witness’ knowledge. If their brother Louis’ name was mentioned his brother would grow very excited and would use profane lan- guage and accuse Louis of cheating him (Gott- }). | His brother was now childinh, due, wit- ness thought, to old age. Witness hardly thought, however, that his brother was com] tent to carry on such a business as that carried on by witness, for instance.

Schneider had waked him for money in the letter, and him’ to be insane by any means. His brother generally talked of matters occurring many Years ago, forty or fifty. His brother said Mr. Schneider had been childish since his sickness in 1862. On bis farm his brother worked some, mostly in the garden and planting trees. When he talked of his brother Louis his talk was hardly rational. WHY MIS BROTHER WAS KEPT OUT oF stout. Mr. Mattingly—Don't you know that it bas been the effort of your brother's family to conceal his condition from observation. ‘The witness—I think it would have been bet- ter for him had they taken him out more. Mr. Schneider finally said that his brother's family did appear determined that his brother should not be seen, but why be did not know. He imagined it might have been due to his carelessness in dress. He supposed they did not wish his brother to be seen. Witness had never visited Howard in jail. Howard got angry with witness because he would not trast him (the prisoner) or have anything to do with him. Witness had told a Mr. Kennedy of Rovee & Marean and a Mr. Burkett that he (witness) would not trust his nephew for elec- trical supplies. Howard had threatened to sue witness. For what witness did not know. Mr. Mattingly asked the witness if he had ad- vised Mr. Quimby, a book dealer, not to trust Will Schneider, but the court dectded that the question was not pertinent to the question at issue. Mr. Schneider said he had not, however. The witness said he had received many com- Pisints concerning electrical work done by Howard Schneider, some people imagining that witness was responsible for the work. Howard had said that he had served with witness, which was not true. To the district attorney the witness said that when his brother went out of business be had three or four houses and $12,000 in bonds. The witness stated that be had nothing to do with Howard because he (Howard) bad such an ugly isposition and because of his trying to injure the business of witness. GEORGE 4. THOMAS. George A. Thomas, a clerk in the District Commissioners’ office, said he was in the em- ploy of Mr. Christian Schneider for fourteen Years, from 1871 to 1885, and had known Gott- lieb Schneider during that time. Witness had seen Gottlieb Schneider frequently in his brother's store and had conversed with him often. Mr. Schneider conversed rationally, and witness never saw anything in his conduct or conversation to lead witness to consider him other than a sane person. To Mr. Mattingly the witness said Mr. Schneider would always yield to positive evi- dence. He had never heard him use profane language, and never saw him grow more then ordinarily excited in convereation. SECRETARY JOHN T. DOYLE, Secretary John T. Doyle of the civil service commission said he knew the prisoner, and said thet Schneider had been examined three times under the rules of the commission—March 8, 1884, as atracer, when he received a of 76; June 30, 1885, as a draughteman, when he | failed to pass, receiving a marking of 34, and December 26, 1888, as a when he The witness good He was eligible list as a result of the first and examinations, but was never appointed. on the second To Mr. Wilson Mr. Doyle eaid tho first ex- amination involved merely the ability of the if be bad any money with bim.
