If He Does Not the United States| Government Will Make Soms | Dec'sive Move. NXEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 8.—The Wash- ington correspondent of ihe Herald says: President McKinley and his Cabinet thor- oughly discussed the Cuban question in | all its phases to-day, and it is the consen- sus of opinion that the Sagasta Ministry should inaugurate reforms in Cuba with- out waiting for action by the new Cortes, which will not assemble before March. Otherwise the administration wiil be forced to act. 1 am able to state this on high authority The advisability of providing protection jor the American consulate in Havana and the necessity of obtaining irom Senor Sagasta action in Cuba were the principal themes of discussion, but, other than the ; conclusion that something should be done | without delay by Segasta, there was no important development, The authorities - are of the opinion that Spain is simply following out her usual policy of delay. ; After the Cabinet meeting an officer with whom I talked careiully went over the situation with me. The adininistra- tion, I understand, has not received from Minister Woodford any advices since the receipt of nis cable announcing the forma- tion of a new Ministry. It has at band, however, complete reports from him as to | bis opinion on the situation in Spain. Minister Woodford does not believe the Bagasta Ministry can do much in the ma:- | ter of granting concessions to the Cubans. | I understand he has reported that the people of Spain would greatly deprecate any such step, and the fear of internal t:oubles will doubtless do much to pre- vent Senor Sagasta taking radical action. | As a resuit of this discussion, the aun- thorities are conyinced that Sagasta can do much to ameliorate the condition of affairs in the island if he will be willing to brave public opinion in Spain. President McKinley is awaiting with no little anxiety for Spain’s reply to the pres- eutations made by Minister Woodford. Lltaednir WEYLER'S SUCCESSOR. | The Man to Whom Premler Sagasta Wiil Confide the Fortunes of the Liberal Administration. MADRID, Srarx, Oct. 8 —Captain-Gen- eral Ramon Blanco y Arenas, who will succeed Captain-General Weyler as Gov- ernor-General of Cuba, has had kis chief | administrative experience in the Philip- | pine 1:lands. He succeeded Captain-General Despujol as Governor-General of the Philippines in | 1893, and for his services in that capaeity was raised to the rank of marshal in May, | In August, 1896, he reported to the| panish Minister of the Colonies the ex- | istence of an extensive plot aiming at the | independence of the islands. Tuis rap- idly took the proportions of a formidable insurrection, which the efforts of General Blanco were powerless to check. In Sep- tember of tbat year he narrowly escaped agsassimation. | A piot was formed to sarprise the garri- son at Manila and seize the headquar.ers and to murder the captain-general. It was discovered ju:t in the nick of time, and more than 100 persons were arrested for complicity in it. Prior to this General Blanco had not resorted to extreme meas- ures. but, spurred on by the personal dan- ger 10 which he had been exposed, he issued a decree ordering that all property belonging to residents of the Philippine Islands who bad been implicated in the rebellion should be rorfeited for the benefit of the Government. A week’s grace was offered 1o those who were willing to sur- render. But neither this decree nor General Blanco’s military tactics, nor other excep- rional measures which he tock 1o sup- press the rebellion, prevented it from s spreading and in December, after a broad hint from the Government that his methods were not sufficiently severe he tendered his resignation and was succeeded by General Polavieja, com- mander of the Sixth Army Corps, who was sent to the Philippines with instruc- tions virtually iaentical to those given to Captain-General Wevler when the latter succeeded Marshal Martinez Campos in Cuba. Shortly after this Marshal Blanco was appointed chief of the military household of the Queen Kegent. He has been de- scribed as the “*softest hearted soldier in Spain,” and his whoie career indicates his disposition to employ mild rather than violent measures. Ever since the fall of the Azcarraga Cabinet the name of Marshal Blance has b the most prominent among the possible <uccessors of General Wervier, and the impression in some well- informed quarters has been that if ap- pointed Governor-General of Cuba® he would be empowered to approach the in- surgents with a view of arriving at a mutnal agreement for the cessatiou of | hostilities. He enjoys the personal friend- ship and entire contidence of the Queen Regent. SACRIFICED BAVARIAN TROGPS. An Interpellation in Reference to Em- peror William’s 4ssuming Com- mand During Maneuvers. MUNICH, Bavaria, Oct. 8. —In the Chambper of Representatives to-day Herr Schadler interpellated tue Government regarding the recent army maneuvers, claiming that Emperor William of Ger- many wrongfully assumed command of the Bavarian army and needlessly sacri- ficed lives in the cavalry attack The Premer, Baron von Grailsheim, and the Minister of War, Baron von Az:ch, denied most of the assertions made, but admitted that there were a number of suicides during the maneuvers on account of the exbausiion of the troops.

Smith Is Put to Death at His Koloa Home. CALLED TO THE DOOR AND SHOT. Had a Presentiment of Danger and Was Writing to His Fiancee. CONSPIRATORS ARRESTED FOR THE MURDER. They Plotted to Remove a Frlend of Hawallans to Prevent Lepers From Bz=ing Removed. Correspondence 0f THE CALL HONOLULU, Hawair Oct. 2—Dr. Jer- rard K. Smith has been assassinated, the news having been brought here last Sun- > | meht, | everything was quiet about the Smiths’ including all nationalities from all parts of the islands, Officers worked on the case successfully, and succeeded in securing a conlession from a little native boy named Kaanea, and arrested in consequenceeight per:ons, one a half-white, and charged them with conspiracy in the murder. Iosepa Kaic confessed aiso that on Mon- day, September 2), Dr. Smith had ordered Paupau Kaio and the 13-year-old giri, Pua, to report as leper suspects. ‘I'nis did not create a kindly feeling, and it was de- c.ded that, in order to obviate the neces- sity of sending the woman and girl to Molokeai, Dr. Smith must be killed. Tie matter was ta.ked over in the Kao housebola on Tuesday, but noth- ing was done then. On Wednesdey at about 11 o’clock, Kapea and Iosepa went down to Dr. Smith’s house with the intention of setting fire to the cane near the house and of kiliing their victim while he was attempting to extinguish the flames. The cane was set on fire and Dr. Smith went out as they expected, but the mean d:d not care to risk the thing that night. They feared being seen by some one while riaing around to commit the murder. This caused the scheme to fall through, and Dr. Smith escaped for that night. On Thursday night the two brothers went to the Smith premises and lay in ambush in the bushes outside, awaiting an opportunity to commit the murder. This did not turn up, end the brothers returned home. On Friday night it was d cided that the two should wait until house and that then the doctor was to be called out and slain, 1t was about 9:30 o’clock, and a church social opposite bad just been finished. The opportunity was ripe, and the two wen rode their horses to the gate to the left of the house. This they opened and then rode totha oue tothe right, which they entered. The two rode to the clump of banana trees in front of the house. Kapea jumped off his horse, and, throw- ing his bridle to his brother, sneaked around the banana treesand up on the veranda in front of Dr. Smith’'s room. Kapea knocked on the top step, and the doctor cailed: “Owai kela?’ A grunt was the only answer, and Dr. Smith, open- ing the door, siepped out, but seeing no one, he turned around to get the lamp that was on the desk near the door, thus leaving bis left side ex- pos:d. Kapea took three swilt steps scross the veranda, and, leveling the re- volver at the breast of Dr. SBmith, fired. LADY 0 BEATS A FAST FIELD Seven Heats Necessary to Decide the 2:16 Trotat San Jose.

K. SMITH, Who Was Assassinated at His Night of September 24, Home in Koloa on the day by an island steamer. Dr. Smith was a brother of Hon. William Owen Smith, Attorney-General of the Republic of Ha- waii, and a relative by marriage of Wil- liam Bailey of Oakland and W. Water- house of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. On the night of Friday, the 24th uit., Dr. Smith was called to the door of his home at Koloa, Kaui, and without warn- ing shot dead. Itappears that on the evening in qu-s- tion Miss Juliette Smith left her brother to retire to rest between 9 and 10 o'clock and the doctor retired to his own room to write some letters, especiaily one to his fiancee, Miss Brewer, which he was en- gaged upon when calied forth to receive his dea'h wound. Shortly after Miss Smith had extin- guished her lamp she heard a knock at the frontdoor of the house and her brother’s voice inquiring, “Who's there?” There was no reply and the doctor repeated the question in Hawaiian, but the only re- sponse heard by Miss Smith was a cough. The door was opened and the sound of a shot instantly followed. Miss Smith, hearing the noise of a syot and a body falling, immediately ran to the door and found her brother on the floor shat through the breastand dying. He expired in a few seconds without speaking a word. No one could be seen, bul the noise of g; loping horses could be heard in the dis- tance and the darkness, The nearest friends were soon aroused, but no clew could be obtained. Drs. Camp- beil and Watt were summoned and ex- tracted a 38-caliber revolver bullet from the wound. It wus the impression of all that the cowardly murderer must have fired the falal shot at very close quar- ters. Dr. Smith was born on the islands, was the son of a distingu shed missionary and had for a number of years lived at Koloa with his sister. There they devoted them- selves tn the amelioration of the Hawaii- ans. They founded and conducted the Kauai Industrial Home for Hawaiions in aadition to aiding in many other praise- worthy objects, Dr. Smith was a very amiable man in the prime of life, and had recently com- pleted a residence for his future bride, with whom he had arranged to be mar- ried within the next few months in Cali- fornia, where Miss Brewer is believed to be at present. It seems somewhat strange that the last words he penned 1o his future brige :mmediately before he was shot ex- ressed a fear that he might ne again ook upon her Jiving features. This antici- paiion of an impenuing disaster has natu- rally eiven rise to surmises. The feeling of indignation at the heinous deed 1s irre- pressibie throughout the islands, and none sympathize more deep'y with the family of the decea‘ed in Lheir bereave- ment than those who have no political affection for the Attorney-General, who himsel! grimly said that if it had teen himself he would not have been surprised, for he knew that politics had made him “many enemies. = The funeral of the murdered man tdok place at Koloa Church on the 27th inst., Rev. Hans Isenverg conducting the serv- ices assisted by Rev. J. M. Ludgate and the Rev. Mr, Konoho. The pali-bearers were Benator George N. Wilcox, Alexander Mc- Bryde, Judge Blake and the Rev. Mr. Konoho. The attendance was very large, The victim fell where he stood, and the murderer fled to the clump where his horse was. He mounted quickly and, in company with his brotber, rode swiftly out of the left-hand gaie and in a very roundabout way to their home. They le* their panting horses go in the corral and then turned in. In the meantime they had found time to hide their revolvers in the grass. The next day they hunted up and stowed them away in d ifferent plac s, Iosepa was taken to the spot and pro- duced his revolver, hidden in sand. The whole K family was then put under arrest, din: Rathburn, a half- white, w 0 is supposed to have known about the plot OLD KILAUEA VIOLENT ERUPTION Visiting Congressmen Witness the Flow of Livid Fire and Molten Lava.

Hawallan Natives Who Did Not Care to Be Misrepresented Consplcu- ous by Their Absence. Correspondence of THE CALL HONOLULU, Hawarr, Oct. 2—On Sep- tember 30 Senator Morgan of Alabama, the warhorse of annexation, appeared belore ihe Honolulu public for the first time and deiivered his pro-annexation address. It was intended to be a clinching argu- ment to induce all the native Hawaiians to rally round his standard. It fell flat, and was admittedly a dismal failure both ir attendance and in effect. The place chosen for the lecture, for it was ratber that than a speech, was the ancient and Listoric missionary church of Kawaihao, the ““old stone church of the pioneer Bingham' and the ‘early fathers,”” and in close proximity to the Government buildings and easily accessi- ble from all parts of the city. Large placards in the Hawaiian lan- guage had been pos'ed around the city and 1ts env.rons inviling the people to rally internationally en masse to listen to tne distinguished Senator, and to this notite was even appended the name of Kaulea, the president of the Hawaiian Patriotic League and one of the foremost leaders of the Hawsaiian opposition to annexation. Aill the newspapers had given the bencfit ot free advertising ior several days ahead, but the illusirious Senator failed to draw an enthusiastic audience as a “'first nighter.” Tbe natives, fearfui of the “business- EVERY THOUGHT Word and Acilon Takes Vitality From tne Biood.

The Hawaiicns present consisted only of those drawing from the Government payrolls and those associated with them by personal interest. There were 49) persons present by actual count, of whom less than 100 were Hawaiians, if are excepted the Kame- bhameha schoolboys, in their gray uni- forms, and the young ladies of the Kawaihao Seminary and otber school- children. There was a smattering of Japanese and Chinese, but the bulk of tae gathering was composed of what is known as the missionary eiement and their families, and the military officers and police, in civ:lian clothes, and a number of others attracted there by curiosity. The Senator was introduced by Mr. Naone, formerly a speaker of the Leuvis- lature, and J. L. Kaulukou, recently elected to the Assembly, District Judge Luther Wilcox, for many years the effi- cient official interpreter, officiated as the interpreter of Morgan’s language, an un- necessary adjunct,for probably nine-tenths of those present understood and conversed | in English. As the coolest and most eloguent orator labors under a grievous disauvantage in baving the cunrreat of his thoughts and rhetoric broken into almost momentarily to have them twisted into another lan- guage, the Senator consequently had no opportunity to impress his audieuce with his elocutionary genius. He turther la- bored under another disadvaniage. His | managers had forgotten to inform him that Professor Alexander’s hisiory, from which he so largely and tediously quoted for the benefit of the ‘‘younger genera- tion,” was a school textbook, and that the incidents contained in it were famil- iar to all present; and furthermore that the Hawauan is & history-loving man, and 1s replete with all the information in regara to his own land, wh ch Senator Morgan evidently was not. It is grievous to say, therefore, and & shame and dis- | credit to our world-famed hospitality and courtesy that long before Senator Morgan had been didactically delivering his les- sons in familiar events for an hour, a goodly number of the audience indecor- ously yawned. The whole speech may be summarized into a paragraph: From the moral stand- point America discovered Hawaii, and civilized 1t, and turned 1t into a part of the United Siates. It would not annex 1t betore because it was a monarchy and not arepublic. Now that it was a republic the Unitea Siates would take it whenever it pleased, and it was of no import whether the 50,000 Hawaiians hiked it or not. If they were annexed they would become American citizens and have all tue inestimable boons and privileges pertain- ing thereto, if they were not they would reiapse into barbarism and become Japan- ese heathens anu pagans.
