DOCUMENTS FOUND IN A RAID. a Proof of a Very Widespread Con- spiracy REVEALED BY AN ACCIDENT. LONDON, Dec. 8.—A dispatch from Mad- rid to the Central News says that the police have made a raid upon houses suspected of being occupied by anarchists at Mesina De Rio Seco, a town 26 miles northwest of Val- ladolid, and secured a number of docu- ments. It has been suspected, in fact known, by the police for a long time that the anarchist outrages in Spain had their origin in a conspiracy, but the authorities have never been able to get proof as to who the prime movers in the conspiracy are. Many artests have been made in differ- ent parts of Spain, but the prisoners would never give evidence that would lead to the arrest of their principals. The town of Mesina De Rio Seco ts off the line of travel, and it appears now that tak- ing advantage of its comparatively isolated position the anarchists sought refuge there and from there directed the movements of members of the gang in other places in Spain. The discovery of the documents confirms the suspicions of the police that there is a widespread movement to spread the anarch- ist propaganda by means of dynamite and other outrages, it is learned that the society at Mesina De Rio Seco had over eighty members, all of whom are sworn to secrecy by the most solemn oaths. Even the ritual employed in the initiation of members is in the hands of the authorities, and in it the anarchists call down upon themselves the vengeance of their fellow members if they betray in the slightest degree the confidence reposed in them. Some of the oaths in the ritual are blasphemous, but the police state that so far as they know not one of the many an- archists who have been arrested hag ever violated his pledged word. The prisoners have lied to the authorities and led them on many a wild goose chase, but have not given them information that would lead to the arrest of the arch conspirators. The police say that the raid at Mesina De Rio Seco was brought about by accident and not by any positive information they had received. It is said that thelr attention was first attracted to the town by a sudden and heavy increase in the mail matter sent from there to different parts of Spain, and upon investigation it was learned that the persons to whom most of this mail matter Was addressed were known to the police either as declared anarchists or as suspect- ed sympathizers with the anarchist move- ment. It was a-comparatively easy task, once this fact was established, to find the haunts of the gang, but not so easy to arrest its members. The latter, in some unknown way, learned of the contenplated raid and when the police visited the suspected lodg- ings their occupants had fled. en WHO WILL PLAY HERE. The Young Bloods Mr. Schmels Has Secured for W xton’s Nine. Manager Gus Schmelz after his trip to New York, where he went to secure some of the “Giants,” if possible, stopped in this city on his way home to Columbus, Ohio, and saw President Young of the National Base Ball League. He submitted to that of- ficial a Ist of players under contract to the Washington Base Ball Club for next season. They are as follows: Pitchers, Mercer, late of the New England League; Egan, from Media, Pa.; Esper of last year’s team and Sullivan of the Cincinnatis, for whom Hoy has been traded; catchers, Sellbach and Dugdale, from the Southern League, and McGuire; first baseman, Cartwright, late of the Memphis club; second base, Ward; third base, Hassamer; short stop, McMahon, from the Birmingham club, and outtielders, Cam- Peau and George Tepeau.

George Gould Denies Emphatically the Justice of It. Mr. George J. Gould of New York, against whom a young woman of the name of Mrs. Zella Nicolaus has brought suit to recover $40,000, the amount of a check which she alleges that Mr. Gould once gave to her and afterward unlawfully appropriated, when asked whether, in view of certain state- ments in the morning papers in regard to Mrs. Nicolaus,he wished to say anything fur- ther about the case, said: “I tell you frankly | that everything which I know in regard to |this woman or this suit 1 have already |made public. Further than that, she called |at my office about a year ago; that upon her representations to me I gave her the money necessary to enable her to return to her home in Chicago, and that she did not use it for that purpose, but called at my office several times afterward I know absolutely j nothing.” In the Early Days of cod-liver oil its use was limited to easing those far advanced in consumption Science soon discovered in it the prevention and cure of consumption.

All droggiste, ——— a a EE |MINISTER THURSTON. He Has Left the City and Gone to Ohi- cago, Minister W! Said to Have Been To! to Do Nothing Until He Receiv. Farther Instractions. It is now developed that the purpose of Minister Thurston's visit to Secretary Gres- ham yesterday was to inform him of his intention of leaving the capital for a few weeks, during which period Mr. Hastings, secretary of the Hawalian legation, will be in charge of its affairs, and will forward any communication the Secretary of State may desire to make to the minister. Mr. Thurston left here last evening for Chicago on business connected with the Hawaiian exhibit at the world’s fair. It is not known exactly when Mr. Thurston will return to this city. Mr. Hastings, who is in temporary charge of the legation, says that the minister is desirous of making a good exhibit of Hawalian products at the midwinter exposition in San Francisco, and after his visit to Chicago might find it necessary to go to the Pacific coast. Whether he would then proceed to Honolulu he could not say, and added that it did not look as If he would, as he had left his wife and son in Washington. The Message to Minister Willis. The Baltimore Sun, one of the stanchest supporters of the administration Hawalian policy of correcting one alleged wrong by the commission of a greater wrong, gives the following as the substance of the mes- Sage sent to Minister Willis at Honoiulu by the revenue steamer Corwin: “Secretary Gresham and President Cleve- land have come to the conclusion that as there had been a decided change on the islands from that reported by Mr. Blount, the minister was justified in pursuing a policy of inaction for the present.” A Fear of Trouble. According to the same authority, the messenger on the Corwin is an employe of the government at San Francisco, and the message he conveys ts brief, simply direct- ing him to do nothing until he is told to do otherwise. There is fear in some quarters that when the provisional government heard of the intention of the United States to re- store the queen serious trouble may have followed, and that the provisional govern- ment may have committed some overt act which precipitated riot and Bloodshed, in which event the forces from the naval ves- sels might possibly have been landed to | preserve order. At the same time the sit- uation may have been such that Minister Willis would recognize the queen. The State Department expects information from Mr. Willis by a steamer arriving at Vancouver Saturday, or by one due at San | Francisco Monday. What they bring may yes an entirely different phase on the situa- Oo ATURDAY’S BIG STAR ‘Will Shine Brilliantly and Flood the City With Its Rays. Tomorrow's twenty-page Star will be an unusually inviting number. The reader who cannot find in it @ vast amount o? reading matter that will be of particular interest to him or her must, indeed, he nard to please. | The variety of topics which will be treated jot in a most entertaining way, ind the lit- erary merit of the articles, will be of an ex- ceptional order. Special chapters will be suitably illustrated, the pictures serving to give an added zest to them. First of all there will be set forth at | length the plans of The Evening Star Santa Claus Club for this year. All Washing- tonians will remember what excellent char- {table work was performed last Christmas by this club, which embraces in its mem- bership over twenty thousand schoul chil- dren of Washington; and aumerous pocr families have pleasant recollections cf the Christmas comfort brought unexpectedly to their cheerless firesides by meaas of this thoroughly systematic organ zation. This is not a “toy and candy” year, but a “food and fuel” year, and it 1s intenJed to still further extend the workings of the club. Tomorrow's Star will indicate how the general public should be interested in the work, and how every one can to something that will bring pleasure to giver and re- ceiver, An article on the artists of Washington will show how the national capital has be- come a center of art and literature, and will describe some entertaining character- istics of well-known artists who have made Washington their home. This chapter will be accompanied by cuts made from draw- ings by a member of the craft. “The Truth Seekers” is the title of a letter from Portland, Ore., which tells of the cur- ious religious sect in Oregon under the leadership of Mrs. Williams, the wife of a former attorney-general of the United States. A great many Washingtonians will remember Mrs. Williams and will be much interested hearing about her claims as the New Messiah. There will be a clever chapter devoted to the subject of illustrated magazines, and it Will point out how oftentimes pictures fail to make the text more intelligible, because of the omission of chronological details. Several illustrations will serve to point a moral. A story entitled “The Charity Ball’ will be found well worth reading. It points out in a most readable way some of the false ideas of charity entertained by the public. No one can read it without.feeling the bet- ter for it. Miss Alice McGowan, whose stories of western life are true to life and always in- teresting, will contribute a sketch entitled “His Blushing Honors,” a story of a Pan Handle election. It will be illustrated by some characteristic sketches, Some of the winter styles will be con- sidered at length and by perusing a chapter under this heading with illustrations, ladies will find much to interest them and also some good advice as to changes in fashion and materia! There will be several chapters that will be found well adapted to the Christmas season and will furnish pointers for selec- tions of presents and purchases. Many noted men have attributed their success in life to a mother’s ove and care. In an article on this subject a number of in- stances will be given of noble self-denial on the part of mothers that their talented sons might succeed. There is a new system for distributing public documents. Hereafter Uncle Sam will sell his books, and tomorrow’s Star will show how the work is to be done and what @ reform will result. Amos Cummings will give, in his breezy way, some facts about the lack of ventila- tion in the halls of Congress; and F. G. Carpenter will tell how the Presid2at is pro- tected from the army of cranks, and de- scribe how the White House is guarded. These are only # few of the special ar- ticles that will appear in tomorrow's Star. It will be interesting to all. eee eee A Defective Flue. At 7:30 o'clock last evening a fire took Place at house 822 12th street, occupied by Mrs. Sadig Mitchell and owned by the Mich- ael Talty estate. It was caused by a defec- tive flue, and the loss was about $50. THE CASE OF HAWAII. The Earnest Testimony of the Seo- retary of the Board of Missions, WHO 1S NOW IN WASHINGTON, | The Royal Cause Represents the Worst Elements of Civilization. A RIGHTEOUS REVOLUTION. Rev. O. P. Emerson of Honolulu, secretary of the Hawaiian board of missions, and of the Hawaiian Evangelical Association, is in Washington, observing, with interest, the proceedings of the government in relation to Hawaii. Mr. Emerson is well posted on Hawaiian affairs. His official position has brought him into contact and intimate ac- quaintance with all classes of the Hawatian | population, native and foreign. He has been consulted while here by persons repre- senting both sides of the controversy. He, however, has refused to talk for publication until today. He expressed the opinion to a Star reporter that the President had been misled. “Government by the late Queen Liliuoka- Jani,” he said to The Star man, “could nev be representative of the American and Eu- ropean elements, now over 20,000 strong, which are domiciled at the Hawaiian Is- lands. The large Portuguese contingent, some 10,000 strong, which is in possession of the franchise, and which forms the most | of the European element,is out of sympathy with her. They are, to a man, strong sup- porters of the provisional government. The American colonists are firm in their purpose | not to suffer her to return to the throne. Only foreign troops could get her back to it, or keep her on it. The American colonists are joined in this purpose by most of the respectable citizens of German and of Eng- lish origin. Those who are in favor of the Queen's return to power are either irrespons- ible adventurers and personal friends, who would hope,under her government, to secure such recognition as they could not gain un- der any other, or they are Englishmen who are hostile to American institutions. The Asiatic Population. “Government by the late Queen Liliuoka- lani could never be representative of the Asiatic population of the islands. There are some 36,000 of these Asiatics, as many as there are aboriginal Hawaiians. Nearly nine-tenths of them are adult males. There are probably in the islands over 32,000 such adult male Asiatics to about 9,000 adult male Hawaiians, “Though most of this Asiatic Population is not permanently located in the land, it is probable that the number now Present will not decrease, but will rather increase, and the settlers are becoming more and more numerous every year. This Asiatic element is an active one, far more so than the ab- original Hawaiian, and it will need strong | Government. The Hawaiian needs to ‘be protected against this Asiatic people. He cannot protect himself. The queen does rot represent the power or the purpose for such control. Indeed, the only government prac- ticable for that polyglot people is one that stan@s for the stronger civilization, and which is supported by the American and European coionists. ‘The Hawaiians Themselves. “Government by the late Queen Li tinoka- Jani could never again be representative of the more intelligent of the aboriginal Ha- waiian population of the islands. She is out of sympathy with the best of her own pro- ple Those of this class who were in the late legislature, men whom she could not corrupt, joined with the supporters of the Provisional government in rep: ler rule and in seeking closer relations with this country. They dia this because they believ- ed it best for their people. ’ “Those of this aboriginal class who rep- resent the Hawaiian Christianity have lost faith in their queen. Her immoralities have offended them. Her encouragement of idcl- atry has ied them to distrust ner as a ‘ead. er. Her support of the dead spaam trafic and of the iniquitous jottery bill has made them regard her as Shamelessiy venal--as ready to sell the liie of ner peopie tor goid. 1 speak for those with whom I im on teims | of utmost intimacy when J say that the in- telligent natives of :ne Hawanan pastora:e have lost faith in their queen. ‘They build their hopes for the Hawaiian People on a pure Christianity, aud they know that for ye the last twenty a ‘ts entre continuance, the wan dynasty nus been against their » They know that since the days of ‘he IZamchamenas the Hawaiian throne has exercised a malign influence—that it has not only been in league with the worst elements of civiliza- tion, it has even had connection with the unspeakably debasing iniluenc2s of the old heathen fire. the revival of heathenism among the Ha- walians which has occurred during the last twenty years, and which the good people of the islands have been so reluctant to ac- knowledge, is traceable directly to the throne. The Provisional Government.. “The present provisional government rep- resents good government at the islands. It represents authoritative and responsible government. It stands for the best civiliza- tion and for the right. It represents the strongest elements in the land ruling in the interest of the weakest and most new has back of it the wealth, the intel and the character of the land. It rep the industries and the commercial! int ests. It represents the philanthropic and »::ission— ary enterprises. Tiere is, indeed, one potent class that it does not represent, and that':s the criminal class; and this, 1 confess, is a troublesome one. “The feeling of those in power is not American in the sense of being anti-Ha- watian. There fs a disposition to favor the aboriginal inhabitants of the tand in every wise way. It is recognized that they are in grave danger of speedy extinction and that they are to be protected and afforded every chance of growth. For those who are now in power to relinquish their control would be to throw the government into the hands of unprincipled adventurers and to let them lead that loveable Hawaiian people to doom. Not the Result of a Plot. “The present provisional government of Hawaii was not established by any plot- tings of any American minister resident, It was begotten in the heat of a strong moral uprising against tyranny and corrup- tion. It was established by Hawaiian citi- zens—by Hawaliaa voters; by men, who, in the troubles brought upon that land by vicious rulers, have learned to fight for a righteous cause, and who, now in Honolutu alone, represent more than half a thousand minute men who can shoot straight with Winchester and Springfield riftes, . ‘That government represents no inconsid- erable portion of the voters of the land. It has back of it the entire Portuguese vote. It carries by far the largest portion of the American and German vote, and also not a few of English and native votes. “Large monied inter: are involved in it, but the majority interested in the provis- ional government—the rank arfd file of this Movement for reform, are men without large wealth. When the time came for ac- tion—for the striking down of a tyrannous and corrupt absolut artisans, mechan- ies, clerks, professional’ men, laborers, as well as heads of mercantile houses, went into it. The sons as well as the fathers of the household railied to the call to arms. Pupils were there with their teachers—for the spirit which makes for righteousness was in the movement. No American guns were trained on the palace; no United States mhrines were drawn up against any forces of the queen. During the entire e citement they kept, by the order of their commander, the attitude of neutrals; if they were a terror to any, it was to evil doers: if they were a menace to the queen, it was be- cause she was in the wrong; if’ they were an encouragement to those who established a provisional government, it was because they were in the right. If in the statements I have made I betray partisan heat, it is because I have been cognizant from first to last of the atrocities perpetrated by Queen Liliuokalani and her pliant cabinet men and legislature. I was an eye-witness to the scenes of the revolution, and know whereof I speak. I am Hawaliian born, and a friend of the Haw: people. I know them, I speak their layguage as readily as my ow my work is amons them; I have given my life to the cause of Hawaiian Christianity, as my father and mother did before me, and if I did not feel profoundiy convinced thai the government of the isiands is now in the hands of those who are Hawaii's best friends, 1 would not speak as I have.” HIS REPORT SUBMITTED. Commodore Sta: m Tells of the Rio Si ite Incident. Commodore Stanton submitted his report on his conduct at Rio de Janeiro to Secre- tary Herbert today and left for his home in New London this afternoon. The report gives the commodore's reasons for saluting Admiral Mello, but whether or not he asks for a court of inquiry is known only to a few persons, and they will not tell. Secre- tary Herbert took the report to the White House with him for consideration by the cabinet, 2 The delegates of the Scotch miners held a meeting in Glasgow Tuesday and decided unanimously to call out immediately 17,000 miners whose employers have not conceded to them the one shilling per day demanded by all the union men.
