SOME EXCITEMENT IN DEMOCRATIC RANKS AT THE ANNOUNCEMENT—TRE POLITICIANS THINK IT UNJUST TO THE PARTY—INDIANA DEMO- CRATS THINK IT WILL STRENGTHEN un. 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 @ little, inasmuch as 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 in- 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. Cloveland’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 great satisfaction of the selection, but the great mass of old line working polit cians accept the statement reluctantly, and sha ing their heads over it, eay that it is an injus- tice 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 thet 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 but demoorat 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- He would not undertake to say that it would not bea surprising. Representative Fitch of Now York said that he hoped there was no doubt about the selec- | tion having been made—that hoe regarded | it as one of the best possible appoint-| ments Mr, Cleveland could maki here is | nothing.” he said, “in the talk of bix 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 as a | republican, and came back to the next Congress | asademocrat there wasa great deal of talk about my not being: a democrat, but Iam a democrat, and no one questions it now, as far as Iknow. MR. OATES EXPECTED A DEMOCRAT. Representative Oates said: I have not be- lieved up to this time that it was possible that Judge Gresham was to be appointed. 1 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. republican and had 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- ocrate 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 Grosham'will make « great cabinet officer and will be very popular in that position. His appointment will be a good thing for the democrats of Indiana and will burt the republicans sreatly- Representative Mitchell said simply: “It is certainly a surprise.” Representative Andrew said: “I dou’t be- lieve it.” ‘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 suj dents who supported him, and they may Eaves claim to's eabinet position. “Judge Gresham is certainly the best representative of them.” ’ Representative Cowles said: “I am willing to leave that matter to Mr. Cleveland. I hope it will turn out all right,” Representative Bryan said: “Judge Gresham is an able man and Ihave no doubt will dis- charge the duties satisfactorily. Iam sur- prised, if this is true, at -the selection of a man who is not clearly recognized as a democrat, but there is no possible objection to Judge | Gresbam as a man.” ‘MR. COMPTON REGRETS IT. Representative Compton said: “I regret | it if it is true that this selection bas been made. because I cannot help believing and feeling that the country can furnish enough men who ase democrats torun the government undera democratic administration, without the | selection of one who bat a few months ago ina | letter explaining his vote for Cleveland, said | ‘that he was not a democrat.” ———-«- —_+_ Trrat or tHe Derrorr.—the cruiser De- troit, building at Baltimore, will have a pre- liminary trial in Chesapeake bay tomorrow.

NO INSTRUCTIONS SENT. Waiting 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 none 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 hed 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 CABINET. ‘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. 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 by aSrax reporter, but declined to discuss the situation further than to say that there have been no new developments and that n& 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 explained, merels 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 adviees duc here next Wednes- day. It is believed, however, that his course will be | sustained | unless subsequent events prove that it was uncalled | for and ill advised. The impression now, | however, is that the status quo of the Be is. practically the same as when the provisional government was estab- lished and that if Mr. Stevens has committed this government further than was contemplated in his general instructions it was the only course 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 wettle the question of Great Britain's position in the matter and show that there is no truth in the report that that 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 has 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, Mohican will probably join the Boston at Honolulu Sunday or Monday and that Ad- miral Skerrett will then relieve Capt. Wiltse of command of the naval forces. So far as known no other vessels have been ordered to Hawaii. The U.S. S. Ranger and Adams, now at Sun Francisco, are available for that duty m case more vessels are required. It is now settled that the Monterey will not be sent to Hawaii. KALAKAUA’S IMPERIAL AMBITION. 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.

Bush who came to San Francisco with Paul Neumgn and Prince David was King | Kalukaua’s special representative to the Samoan | Islands in 1885 or 1886 at the time the king had under consideration. scheme for the organization of the empire of the Pacific. This scheme was sug- gested to the kit was believed, by a foreign resident of the island now domiciled in| the United States, who for a period | of three days was King Kalakaua’s min-| ister of foreign affairs. Mr. Bush, it) is asserted, vy his manipulations in the Samoan | Islands, was responsible for that condition of | things which eventuated in the —neces- sity for a protectorate over the islands finally assumed by the United States, Great Britain and Germany under the tripartite agreement now existimg. 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 the admission | Mr. Bus made in an interview in San Fran- cisco yesterday that annexation with the United States would benefit no class of tho residents of the Hawaiian Islands so much as it would the native populatio 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 depored queen, and Mr. Neuman. the queen's « representative, edmplain 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 « conviction that his election had been procured by means that would not bear close investigation. His supporters, fearing that without assistance they would ee the forees of the United States men-of-war then in the harbor to pro- tacks by outsiders, and it was due to their 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 isa great howl 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,” saidthe old Hawaiian resident, “was harged in 1842, 1 think it was, and witnessed the execution.

STEVENS.” The statement in yesterday's Star that Min- ister Stevens had acted entirely on his 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 United States 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 wiseand best on the emer- gencies of the caso and it would be unfair to {dge his conduct ix advance of the receipt of is full report, now in the mail to Washington. The instructions given by the department to Mr. Stevens in the telegram of the 28th ultimo, already published, approved his recognition of the provisional government. He had been i structed generally to protect American citiz 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 | arrival at 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 aleo informed that Mr. Neuman and Prince David were accom- ied trom Honelula by John E. Bush, whose mission, the commissioners believe, is to pre- sent to the press of the Pacific coast the views of .the friends of the deposed queen, with a view to creating sentiment against annexation. ‘The Hawaiians are in receipt of many wholly irrelevant communications. ‘These are largely in the form of requests for favors from stamp collectors and persons secking positions. They desire it to be known that they have no samples of stamps issued by the Hawaiian government and are not in a position to either give employ- ment nor secure it for any one. ghost of the alleged John M. Cleghorn still hauute them. A package was received yesterday from New York, addressed to Cleghorn, in care of Minis- ter Smith. It proved to be « book called “Devil's Rest,” but its appoaiteness was not manifest. It’ is being held subject to “Ye Cleghorn’s” instructions, Mr. Lorrin A. Thurston, with the wal of repl; to the statements made in ‘the letter from J. F, Colburn, ex-minister of the interior of the Hawaiian cabinet. He denies the claim made byand on behalf of Queen Liliuokalani that the late Hawaiian government yielded to the force of the United States when she surrendered to the Hawaiian provisional government and that the whole movement was a preconceived con- spiracy in favor of'annexation. —- os GETTING GOLD WITH BONDS, A Story Which Was Denied at the Treasury \4 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 ita 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 the placing of the full vol- ume of bonds to be issued and 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 togaya,that the state- ment that gold is being secured by exchange with the bunks of greenbaeks 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 Breenbacks that are in the hands of the govern ment or coming in from time to time do not amount to what is regarded as sufficient for the present emergency. and the ex- change is but a temporary expedient. Starting with €50,000,000, the plan, as outlined toa 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 excnse and legal authority for the issuance of the bonds, * The $statement about the issuing of bonds was denied emphatically by Secretary Foster this afternoon, a THE GARBAGE CONTRACT, The Contract to Be Carried on by the Ni tional Sanitary Company. Contractor Clark wants to give up his gar- age 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 reaily 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 coll In the appropria- tion bill of last year there was a clause allowing 50 cents per ton for every ton of garb- age removed in a steel cari immediately destroyed.

It is not unlikely that the decision of the court as to the man's mental condi- | tion will ot necessity be delayed until after the day set for the executien.

These conclusions will be submitt to the court in the form of a written statement. MR. C. CHRISTIAN SCHNEIDER. Mr. Christian Schneider, @ 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 & year ago his brother visited his (witness’) tore 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 be would become excited, generally on the subject of the late war. Witness never con- sidered his brother to be insane, althongh he was childish in his ways, Witness remem- bered his vrother's stay on the Maryland ferm, ¥ delusion, Sometimes he would use very profane language, something very unusual in his brother's. cc duct. His physical condition was good, | though he was somewhat pale from remaining in the house for time. His eyes ness wandering in his brother's conversation. His brother readily recognized his acquaintanc and witness belicved 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. the greater part of the were bright. Wit- 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 during the war in connection with # contract with the govern- ment for furnishing fuses. His sister had told him that his brother would grow very excited at times and would use loud and profane lan- guage. He supposed they took why his brother ceased business. He supposed mental impairment was never talked of by the famuly to witness’ kno If their brother Louis’ name was mentioned his brother would grow very excited and would use profane lan- oage and accuse Louis of cheating him (Gott- jieb). His brother was now childish, 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. He did not believe him “to be insane by any means. His brother generally talked of matters occurring many Feary ago, forty or fifty. His brother said Mr. Schneider had been childish since is sickness in 1862. On his farm rother worked some, mostly in the garden and planting trees. When he talked of his brother Louis his talk was hardly rational. WHY M18 BROTHER WAS KEPT OUT oF stant. Mr. Mattingly—Don't you know that it has been the effort of your brother's family to conceal his condition from observtion. The witness—I think it would have been bet- ter for him had they taken him cut more. Mr. Schneider finally said that his brother's family did appear determined that his brother should not be seen, but why he did not know. He imagined it might have been due to his carelessness in dress. He supposed they did not wish his brother to beseen. Witness had never visited Howard in jail. Howard got anj with witness because he would not trast hit (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 kuow. Mr. Mattingly asked the witness if he had ad- vised Mr. Quimby, a book dealer, not to trust Will Schneider, but the court decided 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 joward Schneider, some 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 he had nothing to do with Howard becanse he (Howard) bad such an ugly disposition and because of his trying to injure the business of witness, GEOROE A. THOMAS. George A. Thomas, a clerk in the District Commissioners’ office, said he was in the em- ploy of Mr. Christian Schneider for fourteen 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 language, and never saw bim grow more erdlnntity exutted ta convenestion. = SECRETARY JOHN 7.
