KAIULANI WILL ROLE
What May be Expected if
Annexation Fails.
ENGLAND'S EYE ON THE ISLAND
If We Don't Take Them She Will Oier
tarn the Republic and Set up a
Sew Monarchy.
Niw York, Dec. 17. The downfall of
the Dole government and the restoration
of the monarchy, with Kaiulani, niece
of former Queen Liliuokalani, reigning
under British domination, is the fatnre
predicted for Hawaii by the advocates
of annexation, in the event of the re
jection of the pending treaty by the
senate, Bays the Washington correspon
dent of the Herald.
Leading members of the senate com
mittee on foreign relations appear to be
nnanimoas in the opinion that when
the treaty is called np evidence will be
famished to prove that there is some
secret work now ' going on in this di
rection. It is alleged that the Hawaii
an s now in this city to protest against
the ratification of the treaty are here In
the interest of Kaiulani, and that 'Eng
lish influence is behind the movement.
Members of the committer declare
there is Btrong evidence, more -substantial
than this, to prove that the failure
of the United States to take Hawaii
means European domination over the
islands. Just what this information is,
members of the committee decline to
divulge, but the significant statement
that when the facts were brought iu iu
executive session of the senate it would
- bring to l"he support of the treaty sever
al senators who are now on the other
side.
It is on account of this secret informa
tion in possession of the committee that
Senator Davis will oppose. the discussion
of the treaty in open session. . He' will
insist upon its consideration behind
closed doors, and he will . be supported
in this proposition by ail members of
the committee.
Beware of Oinments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury,
As mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and c mpletely derange the
whole system when entering it through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never be used except on prescrip
tions from reputable physicians, as the
damage they wtll do is ten fold to the
good you can possibly derive from them.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O., contains
no mercury, and is taken internally, act
ing directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. In buying Hall's
Catarrh Care be sure you get the gen

Agent Crench, or the Letter Interests,
so Predicts.
Chicago, Dec. 17. George B. French;
the recognized" agent of the Leiter in
terest in wheat, has imparted a piece of
information which wheat speculators for
many months have been anxious to know
He also ventured a prediction on tbe
future of May vheat.
"Our wheat costs us nearly 70 ct8."
said Mr. French, "and at that price
we think we can afford to take it in,
pay for it, and see what : it , looks ' like.
Oar position, as we have said right along,
is simply that of merchandisers. - As
soon as the deficiency of tbe supply and
the urgency of the demand become more
Apparent, I will not be a bit surprised to
see May wheat at $1.50."
While Mr. French would give no in
formation as to the size of the line of
wheat which he represents, be said : '
"We expect that all the wheat we
have bought will be delivered to us."

A WARLIKE MISSIONARY.
Ha Didn't ljelleve in Caning- tho
That the warrior spirit is not con-
nnea to soldiers is clearly shown by a
story of a missionary chaplain in Natal,
Bev. George Smith. Mr. ' Smith had
been temporarily attached to the army
for the period of the campaign, and dur
ing the whole of the long and fierce
Zulu attack right gallantly he played
his part in tending the sick, giving aid
to the wounded and comforting the
dying. - '. ; .
No one had a greater share of danger
than he. and no one. savs a. writer in
Blackwood's Magazine, showed a more
soiaieriy example of treating that dan
firer with calm indifference. -Xnt, onlv
did he perform the duties of his office,
oui as every man wno could handle a
rifle was sorely needed to defend the
parapet, Mr. Smith did essential service
Dy going round tne various posts and
distributing reserve cartridces. '
A good story went round the army inf
ooutn, Airica Dearmg on the spirit of
his professional conduct, on one occa
sion. .
One of the men, in the heat and : ex
citement of battle, was cursing his en
emies and using most profane lan
guage. The chaplain, coming behind,
heard his words, and said: ,
"You should not speak like that, my
friend. Don't curse them!" Then, shov
ing a packet of cartridges intobishand:
"Shoot theml shoot them!"
