FIGHT ON, ASSAM’S FRONTIER. ee PARIS, Jan. 9.—The Figaro says that the residences of the jurors who will serve on the trial tomorrow of Auguste Vailiant, the anarchist, who threw the bomb in the chamber of deputies on December 9, will be specially guarded during the trial in order to prevent friends of the prisoner from committing outrages for the purpose of intimidating the jurors. The papers published a number of tetters written by anarchists and addressed to | the jury and to Judge Caze, president of the Paris assize court, before which Vall- lant will be tried. The letters are com- paratively motierate in tone. The Petite Republique says that the post office authorities have issued orders for the seizure of all letters addressed to sixty- ht suspected’ anarthists. These suspects re Frenchmen, Germans,Italians and Kus- sinns, most of whom'live In London. ‘This statement, however, is not contirmed. A Lot More Dotuments Captured. ROME, Jan. 9.—The general raid on an- archist haunts made yesterday morning by the police of this city and, the large provincial towns was productive of very good results. Altogether about ten thou- sand copies of manifestoes couched in the usual wild language of the anarchists were seized, . The authorities also got possession ‘of a list referring to a quantity of firearms, which, search as they might, the police could not find. The search, however, has not been abandoned and every effort is being made to discover the place in which these firearms are secreted. Other lists were found giving a complete | record of the recent bomb outragés in Rome and specifying those intended in the future. The ‘localittes in which the dutrages were to have been perpetrated are specified with much particularity. SPECIE PAYMENTS. Efforts of Austria-Hungary Toward Resumption. LONDON, Jan. 9.—The Vienna correspon- dent of the Standard says: “The object of Austria-Hungary is to re- sume payments in specie. An essential pre- Mminary of this is the withdrawal of the state bank notes issued in 1866,and amount- ing to 312,000,000 florins, representing the Austro-Hungarian floating debt. Besides these there is the floating debt of Cisleitha- nia, amounting to 100,000,000 florins, in the form of salt mine certificates. Finally,there are the Austro-Hungarian bank notes,which are unconvertible at the present owing to the shortage of ihe bank’s funds. Despite the sales of the gold rente of 1893 the gov- ernment still needs gold to the amount of 130,000,000 florins. The Rothschild syndi- cate, which acted for the Austro-Hunga- rian bankers, still holds rentes to the amount of 52,000,000 florins. It is proposed to sell these, and, if successful, to invite subscriptions to the'rest of the gold rentes. With a view to Influencing the opinion of foreign investors, bills shortly will be sub- mitted to the parliaments in Vienna and| Buda-Pest empowering the withdzawal of 100,000,000 florins of bank notes this year and 100,000,000 more in 18%. The operation does not offer any difficulty. As the nation- al bank must materially assist and its charter will expire in four years, negotia- tions to renew the same will forthwith be begun.” VIENNA, Jan. -9,—After a long conference Dr. Wekerle, Hungarian finance minister, and ‘Herr von Pletiér, Austrian finance min-| isté>, HaVe decided to withdraw 100,000,000 florins of bank notes in 184, and the same amount in 1895, replacing them with gold and silver coins. THE TARIFF BILL ABROAD. Possible Effect on E: ud—President Cleveland Criticised. LONDON, Jan. 9.—The Globe today com- ments upon a letter of Mr. Andrew Car- negie to the New York Tribune, written just prior to his departure from New York last week for Europe, in which he argued for various reasons in favor of the ac- ceptance of the Wilson tariff bill. ‘The paper says that it agrees with the reasons advanced by Mr. Carnegie, and adds that the time has arrived for a demo- cratic-republican tariff compromise. “Eng- land,” it further says, only less inter- ested in the matter than the United States, whose financial troubles are largely th cause of trade depression in England, but,” it adds, ‘unless important concessions are made the bill is not likely to pass.” The Globe declares that it regrets Presi- dent Cleveland's autocratic temper, and says his stone-wall attitude during the dis- cussion of the silver question is not justi- fiable now, because there is not a prepon- derance of popular opinion in favor of the bill. Uniess he agrees to a compromise President Cleveland, it declares, will be blamed for the delay in the return of pros- perity. THE SIERRA’ LEONE SKIRMISH. It is Hinted That a Manin of Lieut. Moritz Was Resporsible for It. LONDON, Jan. ¥.—A cabinet council was heid at noon today for the purpose of ar- ranging for the closing of the parliamen- tiary session. 1t was decided to present to the queen on Thursday the decuments necessary to the closing of the session. The council also considered important dis- patches, from South.

Assault on a British Ex; the Assam Frontier. CALCUTTA, Jan. 0.—Adyices from Gow- hatty, the chief tovn of the provine of As- sam, have been received here, showing that on January 2 the Abor tribesmen attacked at Ramjur. on the northeast frontier of Assam, a British expedition that had been sent against them. Seven of the British miiltary police forming the expedition were killed. Dom Pedro’s Daughter. PARIS, Jan. ¥.—The Figaro today eulo- gizes the Countess D'Eu, daughter of the late Dom Pedro, the deposed emperor of Brazil.

LONDON, Jan. 9.—The government pub- Mshed yesterday a series of telegrams ex- changed before last August 25 by the Earl of Kimberley, secretary of state for India, and Lord Landsdowne, then viceroy of India, concerning the sale of India council bills. The dispatches reveal little that is new. The viceroy urged that it would be desirable to fix a low minimum for the rupee, but this the Earl of Kimberley re- fused to do. In general it would appear that the interests of the mercantile com- munity in India were sacrificed to the exi- gencies of the home treasury. Baried Under an Avalanche.

ROME, Jan. 9.—The coming meeting of the Congregation of Sacred Rites to de- Uberate on the question of the beatifiea-| tion of Joan of Arc will be made the oc- casion of great and solemp services. Many bishops from various parts of Europe are | en route to Rome to attend the meeting. The pope attaches great importance to the meeting and has imposed secrecy upon the Congregation of Sacred Rites in order to prevent the press from getting any infor- mation regarding the proceedings in the matter. A number of the members of thé congregation are opposed to the beatifica- tion of Joan of Arc, and there will be a prolonged debate on the question, the issue of Which is uncertain. Soa ge NEW JERSEY’S SENATE, Fight of the Parties Over the Ques- tion of Control. TRENTON, N. J., Jan. 9.—The excitement | has increased in intensity since last night over the organization of the legislature this afternoon. The democrats are confident of their ability to successfully apply the brake to the republican wheel of legislation and the republicans make no concealment of their feeling of desperation. Ex-Senator Sewell is here directing their battle, but no definite plans have been agreed upon to meet the emetgency. * “I don’t see,” said Maj. Anderson of the! republican state committee, to the United Press reporter, “how we can meet this mat- ter in any other way than by saying that such a thing has never been done before. If the democratic theory is correct, that the senate is a continuous body, why does the constitution provide for elections by the people? Under this theory all elections may | ; be nullified. The republican hold-over sen- ators will not answer to their names this afternoon if the senate is called to order by Robert 8..Adrain. “Then, under this theory,” continued Maj. | Anderson, “‘the democrats will have a pre- siding officer and what they call a quorum, | under which they will undoubtedly elect | other officers, but there their power will cease. No bill has ever yet been passed by | less than eleven votes in the New Jersey senate. The constitution provides for this. The democrats will probably, therefore, ad- journ from day to day while the republicans sit and transact business.” —— THE B. AND 0. TO JOIN An Ohio Railway Soon to Be Absorb- ed. CLEVELAND, Ohio, Jan. 9.—It is stated on good authority that the long delayed foreclosure proceedings against the Valley Cleveland, Akron and Canton railroad, and the Baltimore and Ohio, are about to be consummated, and that the former road will become a part of the Baltimore and Ohio system. For over a year the Baltimore and Ohio has been running the Valley road under | the supervision of receivers. ‘The delay was caused by a combination of local security holders, who fought against any reorgani- zation in which they would be frozen out. It is stated that a settlement has been made with a few of the holders of mortgage bonds so that a sufficient number has been secured to enable the Baltimore and Ohio to carry out its plans. The status of the Valley is that foreclosure proceedings can commenced on short notice and the en- tire property sold by the court. _— The Hoffman House Dispute. NEWARK, N. J., Jan. 9.—Vice Chancellor Green, sitting in the chancery chambers this morning, granted an order to slow cause why E. D.

The order is returnable before Vice Chan- cellor Green on Tuesd2y morning next. An order had been signed when the receivers were appointed for the producing of the books in this city, but the order was disre- garded. —__ In the Labor Field, ANSONIA, Conn., . %—The Sterling organ factory started up yesterday.

He gave the attorneys for Painter a lengthy hearing yesterday in Springfield, and at the conclusion of it he said he was as strongly convinced as ever that no othe> person than George H.

The President Wholly Abandons His Hawaiian Restoration Policy AND FAVORS A PROTECTORATE. Requiring Foreign Powers to Keep Hands Off. SO SAYS THE N. Y. HERALD. The New York Herald, which assumes to be the mouthpiece of the administration upon Hawaiian affairs, has the following today in ‘ts Washington dispatches: The most important development of the day in the Hawaiian matter was the pre- gentation in the Senate of Mr. Turpie's resolution declaring, in effect, in favor of preserving the autonomy of the Sandwich Islands, and stating that foreign interfer- ence would be considered unfriendly to the United States. The true significance of this resolution is in the fact that it accurately outlines the present attitude of the administration in regard to Hawali. Here is the resolu- tion: “Resolved, That from the facts and pa- pers laid before us by the executive and other sources, it is unwise, inexpedient and {not in accordance with the character and dignity of the United States to consider further at this time either the treaty or | project of annexation of the Hawaiian territory to tnis country; that the provis- jonal government therein having been duly recognized, ine highest international inter- ests requ.re that it shall pursue its own line of policy and that foreign intervention in the political affairs of the islands will be regarded as an act unfriendly to the government of the United States.” This, of course, means a virtual abandon- ment of the restoration policy. For ‘that matter, the administration gave up all no- tion of being able to give the queen her constitutional rights when the President's Message was sent to Congress_on Decem- ber 18, and but for the late developments showing that Minister Willis had gone to the extreme limit of his instructions it probably would not have been m to come out with this resolution today. It is still a matter of some speculation as to the exact natute of the correspon- @ence which passed between Minister Wil- lis and the members of the provisicnal gov- ernment after the queen had expressed her anxiety to comply with all the condi- tions imposed by ithe President, but there a moe fo doubt now of the purpose of e ministration to ii in her behalf. ee Willing It Shall Have a Chance. The provisional government having ex- Pressed confidence in its own ability to maintain the autonomy of the islands with- out American union, it is the desire of the administration that it should have the Op- portunity to try it. The United States be- ing responsible, through the unwarranted action of Minister Stevens, for the resent perturbed condition of affairs in Hawait, the President believes it is incumbent on this govenment to see that there fs no for- eign interference with the internal affuirs of Hawaii until such time as its affairs may be straightened out and a permanent form of government be established. Senator Turpie’s resolution practically means a protectorate over the isiands until such time as the Hawaiians decide for themselves how they wish to be controlled. The Senator does not concede that his reso- lution is equivalent to a declaration in fa- vor of a protectorate, but other Senators say they can place no other construction upon it. Whether it means a protectorate or not, the policy outlined by Senator Tur- pie is quite as far as the administration or the democrats in Congress are willing to go in dealing with the Hawaiian matter. “Hands off Hawaii" has been the policy of the President since his first inauguration. The interference of Minister Stevens was in direct violation of this policy. No one will deny the honesty of purpose of the President in his efforts to make amends for she out yas actions of our own repre- sentatives. That he has failed is probably more the fault of the queen than of the ad- ministration, and according to the present attitude of the President, she will appa- rently have to accept the responsibility for her refusal to promptly accept the offer first made to restore her. Expects Further Informatt Senator Turple, in presenting his resolu- tion, said that he would formally address the Senate in its support on Thursday next. He fixed this date, it ts believed,‘ in order that the Senate might have in its possession the reports of Minister Willis brougnt by the revenue cutter Corwin. These papers are expected by mail at the State Department on Wednesday, and it is deemed highly probable the President will at once transmit them to Congress with a message embodying just such recommenda- tions as are embraced in Senator ‘urpie’s regolution. The reports from Minister Willis ere ex- pected to show that he has exhausted all his efforts to bring about a change of govern- ment through peaceful means, and ‘hat the condition of affairs on the islands is such that it ts neither possibie nor desirable to make a further move toward the restoration of the queen and that the only danger to be feared is: from foreign interference. A State Department official told me this evening that when the message between the provisional government and Minister Willis are made public it will be found that they are of a conservative nature, and that the provisional government, instead of be- ing defiant, as reported, simply asked the assistance of the United States in prevent- ing foreign interference until such time as it can establish a republican .form of government through the medium of suffrage. ————————— TO RELIEVE DESTITUTE COLORED. Annual Meeting of the Association— Report of the Condition of the Home. The annual meeting of the Association for the Relief of Destitute Colored Women and Children took place today at the home of its president, Mrs. M. S. Pomeroy, 1339 K street northwest. The home, on 8th street above Florida avenue northwest, which is maintained by this society Is the only one of its kind in the city, and unfortunately its good work was seriously crippled last year from sev- eral causes, and it is at present in urgent need of funds. ‘The report of the secretary showed where the trouble was. An act was passed last year by Congress instituting a board of guardians for the city and granting them $24,000 for their expenditure out of the charity fund This left the home $6,000 to cerry on a work costing $10,000 a year. Besides this better water and heating facili- ties had absolutely to be provided for the home last year at a cost of $500. A peti- tion was made to Congress for a special appropriation of $5,000, but this was denied, and consequently in September the kitchen garden of the society had to be discon- tinued. In November the foundling de- partment was also stopped, but even after exhausting the private fund-of $2,000, at the close of the past year the organization found itself under a heavy burden. ‘The treasurer's report showed that $11,- 029.94 had been expended during the year. The reports from the home and its s veral departments showed the entire number of enrolled persons to be 107. ‘The industrial department, which contains eighty-six schol- ars, made 1,241 articles during the year and mended 749. ‘The kindergarten contains twenty-three children and the day school 105 scholars. The organization finds that their work is increasing daily, and that it can be done in hardly any other way, as no one will adopt or care for colored children unless for the work they expect to get from them. Ac- cordingly they have petitioned Congress for a sufficient amount to put them aguin on firm footing, and an appropriation of $10,000 for the expenses of the coming year, This petition has been recommended. pyrene Com- missioners and the superintentfent of char- ities. At the close of the reports and miscel- laneous business this morning officers were elected for the coming year as follow: President, Mrs. M. 8. Pomeroy; vice presi- dent, Mrs. L. 5S. Swan; treasurer, Mrs. Het- ty G. Francis, and secretary, Mrs. A. M. Purvis. A board of managers was appoint- ed, consisting of Mrs. E. G. Dole, Mrs. H. A. Cook, Mrs. E. W. Lynch, Mrs. A. M. Edgar, Mrs. L. 8. Doolittle, Mrs. A. M. Shadd, Mrs. J.-W. Scudder, Mrs. M. L. Meriwether and Mrs. H. M. Hatch. Mr. John F. Cook, Dr. C. B. Purvis and Rev. F. J.

WINTER RESORTS... EEC eee ESESSSSHSE GEESE SES Se : MR. BOUTELLE’S RESOLUTION. The Naval Committee Authorizes a Favorable Report on It. The House committee on naval affairs today unanimously authorized a favorable report on Mr. Bentelle’s Hawaiian resolu- tion, offered by hifi December 21. The res- olution is as follows: Whereas it appears by certain papers transmitted by the President in response to a resolution of the House, that the Sec- retary of the Navy, on the lith day of March, 1893, issued Instructions to the ad- miral commanding the naval forces of the United States at the Hawaiian Isiands, to hold and employ such armed naval forces subect to the orders of one James H. Blount, said instructions containing the following words: “You will consult freely with Mr. Blount and will obey any instryctions you may receive from him regarding the course to be pursued at said islands by the force under your command;” And whereas it appears by the same papers that said Blount did assume to ex- ercise military command over such armed naval forces of the United States on the Bist day of March, 1803, by issuing the fol- lowing orders to “haul down the United States ensign,” and “to embark the troops” of the United States, to wit: “HONOLULU, March 31, 1893. “Sir: You are directed to haul down the United States ensign from the government building, and to embark the troops now on shore the ships to which they belong. “This will be executed at 11 o'clock on the Ist day of April. “I am, sir, your obedient servant, “JAMES H. BLOUNT, “Special Commissioner of the United States, “Rear Admiral! J. S. Skerrett, “Commanding Pacific Squadron.” And whereas it appears by the papers referred to that the said admiral com- manding the United States naval forces on the Pacific station, acting under said instructions, did obey the military orders of said Blount by lowering the United States ensign and moving the armed forces of the United States “in obedience” to his (said Biount’s) “directions,” as is shown by the following official communication: “U. 8. S. Mghican, flagship of the Pacific Station: “HONOLULU, Hawaiian Islands, April 1, 1833. “Sir—I have the honor to inform Special Commissioner Blount that in obedience to his directions,the United States ensign over the government building was lowered at 11 a. m. of this date, and the force withdrawn from the building and the place designated as Camp Boston at the same hour. | learn that quite a number of people congregated about the government building at the time. The force of marines stationed there were relieved by a force of the provisional gov- ernment. There was no demonstration made by the populace present; no cheering, nor any signs of either joy or grief. “I went on shore this afternoon and saw quite an access in numbers of those who were wearing the annexation club badges. ‘There has been no evidence shown of un- ruly or riotous characters. Absolutely there appears to be peace and quiet. “Very respectfully, your obedient servant, “J. 3. SKERRETT, “Rear admiral United States navy, com- manding United States naval forces, Pa- cific Station.” And, whereas it does not appear that said Blount, at the time of the issuance of said instructions by the Secretary of the Navy, or at the time of said Blount’s issuance of said military orders to the commander of the armed naval forces of the United States to “haul down the United States ensign,” and to “embark the troops” of the United States, or at the time of the execution of such orders, held any military rank or au- thority as an officer of the navy of the United States, or that he held any consti- tutional authority by appointment or com- mission “by and with the advice and con- sent of the Senate” by virtue of which he could lawfully assume command of the armed forces of the United States or order its “ensign hauled down” from the place where it had been raised “for the protec- tion of the United States legation and the United States consulate, and to secure the safety of American life and property” ‘Therefore, Resolved, That the Secretary of the Navy be, and he is hereby, directed to inform the House of Representatives by what authori- ty instructions were issued placing the arm- ed naval forces of the United States and the use of its ensign under the orders and control of said Blount, and that the Secre- tary of the Navy is further directed to fur- nish the House of Representatives with copies of all orders, directions, instructions, or official suggestions issued by him or any officer of the Navy Department or of the navy since the fourth day of March, 1893, concerning the use or movements of the armed naval forces of the United States at the Hawaiian Isiands. The resolution was amended to include March 4, 1892, so that all the Hawatian cor- respondence will be submitted. ——-o+____ THE NEW MARSHAL, Mr. Wilson Receives Congratulations From Many Friends. That the appointment of Mr. A. A. Wil- son meets with general satisfaction was evidenced by the large crowd of friends and acquaintances that called to congratu- late him today. From 9 o'clock this morn- ing his office in the Firemen’s Insurance Company's building on 7th street was crowded. Everybody wanted to shake the hand of the ex-marshal, and wish for him the same success that characterized his former administration. Nor was this all. Letters from persons prominent in the so- cial and political world came in each mail. A reporter of The Star was among the first to congratulate the new marshal this morning. In reply to a question, he said he first learned of his appointment through. The Star. He had heard it rumored through the day, but only accepted it as so when The Star announced it. Of course he felt gratified at the honor, and was also glad that the President had acknowledged home rule. He was ready to assume the duties of the office as soon as he was confirmed. When asked if he contemplated any changes he begged to be excused saying he would do his utmost to serve the people conscien- tiously. In Criminal Court, division 1, before Jus- tice McComas, this morning Daniel Tuomey plead not guilty to a charge of assault and battery with intent to kill Walter B. Jen- nings. Chas. B. Terry also plead not guilty to a similar charge. The latter was an officer of the eighth »recinct, and during the Jack- the-Slasher excitement snot Willis Wash- ington, a colored man.
