Thurston, the Hawaii an minister to the United Stated, has told It. Part of the truth ha been had from the statement of John L. Stevens, who was our minister at the Islands when the change In govern ment took place, but h spoke merely as an outsider, who knew nothing about the affair until lt waa under way. Thurston, on the other hand, talks as an Insider, a leading resident in the Island and a prime mover in the' UDrislnir which nub- verted the monarchy and est.tbll-hed the republic. Thurston declares that the American marines did not land until Monday, January 1 last Jan uary when the revolutionary move ment had been in progress two days, when most of the qun's cabinet had virtually deserted her, and w hen her overthrow was seen by herself and her supporters to be Inevitable. The date of the landing of the ma rines agrees with that furnished by Stevens. There are other points In Thur ston's revelations which Stevens probably had no knowledge of at the time, and which, as an impartial outsider and a representative of another government, he could not have a deep concern in. Briefly stated, tlio points referred to are these: Tho queen's government had full Information of the revolutionary movement from the beginning, and the revolutionists knew this and made no attempt to conceal their purpose; the quisMi's suporters were discordant and "rattled": the revo- lullonirtts were well organized, had looked over the ground carefully tie fore acting, had an armed force at their disposal which they knew could quickly accomplish the work they had in hand, and were masters of the situation. This is the case as Thurston presents it. and he makes thoso points so clear that they will carry conviction to all unprejudiced minds. The duv after the arrival of the murines the provisional govern ment was proclaimed and the queen deposed, but the result would tin- loubtedly have been the same If not an annex! until iieionglng lo Die United Stutes had liceii nenrer to the Islands than San Francisco. Thurston's declarations dispone conclusively and finally of the assertions of commissioner Blount that Minister Stevens and the Amer ican forces had any hand in either starting the Insurrection or of bring ing It to success. The men who or ganized the revolution represented the business Interests and practically the entire white population of the slands. The great bulk of the men who could I x relied on to fight in a crisis were on their side and com mitted to a subversion of the mon archy. They knew the cowardice and corruption of the regime with which they had to deal, and they were serenely confident of the result. The queen ami such of her officials as did not fly at tho first note of alarm were panic-stricken ar.d sought to make terms with the revolutionists which would bind the queen not to make the attack Tin the liberties of the people w hich she contemplated. The queen's authority was apparently so obnoxious to the people that a sue- cesHful uprising was certain at uy time w henever half a dozen of the principal citizens of Honolulu should give the word. It is easy to see that if she were to be allowed to resume power ahe could not maintain herself except by the aid of tho armed forces of the United States or some other nation, and the people of this country are determined that such aid shall not be furnished.

The nmouut of idle money at the country's financial center is greater than was ever known in the past. Last Saturday's statement of the banks belonging to the New York Clearing House Association show that those institutions at that time had a reserve amounting to $71,0a),. 000 more than the sum which by law they are required to hold against deposits. This item Increased to the extent of over $3,000,000 in the week ending on that day, and has been growing steadily for about three months past. In June and July, during the s?riod of the punlc, -w hen hoarding was the order of the day milling the ignorant or timid, the banks of New York, as well as the rest of the country, were heavily drawn on, and ttie reserve was forced down below the legal line, where it remained for four or five weeks. At one time the defllclt In this item reached 116,000,000. In August, however, the turning point was reached, and since then the re serve has lieen expanding. Once only in the past did the surplus in the New York banks close ly approach the present figures. That was in August, 1K85, when the amount nein in excess or tho -'o per er cent, requirement at one time reached Hbout $ii 1,700,000, which is more than $i;,000,000 below the prt a- ent total. Then, as now, the expan sion was preceeded by a severe finan cial disturbance. In May. 1884. Wall street was xhaken up for a few days more seriously than It was this year, but the effects of the convulsion were virtually confined to Wall street, aud did not, as has been the case in Is93, extended thoroughout the whole country. That was the time when two national banks went under, when several others were in a shaky condition, when the clearing house issued loan certificates and when the firm of (Jrant fc Ward col lapsed. For a few days amind tho middle of May, 1881, Wall street had a scare such as it Ims not experienced since the swamping of the firm of Jay Cooke A Company, under its load of Northern Pacific in Septem ber nine years la-fore, precipitated the panic of H73. In the case of 14,11 in this and as in all other cases of financial con vulsion, the time of panic and demor alization was followed by a period of liquidation and depression, when confidence languished, enterprise was dead, and money, finding no profit able employment, drifted to New York, the point where the ultimate reserve cash of the country Is always held. But while fourteen months In lssl-ft were required lo bring the surplus of the banks in that city up to near 0.",000,nno three months or less have suftlced to place the fund above that this year. This cir cumstance gives rise to tfie qui"stltn of how far this hoard of cash is likely to go. The current of money which is drifting to the New York banks, as shown by a comparison of their recent weekly statements, hows no sign of diminution. The increase in the past two weeks is nearly as great as it was in the same length of time in Octolier or September. It may yet reach the I'JO.onO.OOO or floo, 000,000 mark before the trade revival which everybody looks for In the latter part of the winter or early spring again creates the demand which will put all the country's available cash in circulation. Globe Democrat. The escape of Mollo from the har bor of Rio shows that he Intends to test the fighting qualities of Peixoto's New York fleet. If any of the fel lows who enlisted for service on the Nictheroy and tho American fancied they would have a holiday trip they will soon have a disagreeable surprise. It Is a pity for the sake of the science of gunnery that Captainn Zalinski was not allowed to handle the big dynamite gun on the Nictheory. Ho would have been able to demon strate Its effectiveness very clearly, for Mello's first effort will be to capture or sink this vessel. uoauing lenaianuaopii . The most striking peculiarity of (Constantinople Is the immense vital lty which has carried It through so many deaths. It Is common to speak of Turkey as "the sick man, and to associate Ideas of ruin and de- cay with one of the most Intensely living cities in the world. 15ut no one w ho has spent even 24 hours on either side of the Golden Horn could ever conceive of anything even distantly approaching to stagnation in the streets of Stamboul, or on THE FAIL OF (iltESIIAM. The decline and Tall of Walter 1J. Oresham is one of the mo-t atlietic circumstances of our ns.t-nt political history. For seven or eight years he was one of the most conspicuous and attractive figures in American public life. He was in lss.7 and lS-sS the Idol of a Mwcrful element of the republican party, and hud hiv-ts of friends iu tho democracy and in the labor organizations w hlch were the predecessors of the jiopullst In politics. Almost as many localities as contested for the honor of Homer's birthplace claimed him as a son. In the convention of lss, which nomi nated Harrison, he stixxl .second in the voting at the outset, having 1 1 1 votes, on the Hr-t ballot, as compared with L'L'tt for John Sherman, the only man who led him, while Harrison, who eventually carrhsl off the prize, stood fifth on the ballot. On the third ballot (irer.hu in received 123 votes, which was his highest Mill, but he remained in the contest until the eight und last bill lot. But Oresham did not lose bis prominence or o:cney by his defeat In the convention of Ihsh. JI still remained a picturesque and engag ing personality, and his hold on the regard of the third party and ou that of the sentimental element of the democracy increased or diminished. By the fots of his party his defeat was attributed to capitalistic in fluences and to conspiracies among the monopolists, and he became especially dear to the class which sees in every rich man a monster and an enemy of society. While Ntill retaining the respect of his old sup porters he attracted the devotion of the most diversified und hetcroger. eous collection of humanity that was ever gathered together since David sought refuge from Saul in the cave of Adullam. Every one that was in distress, every one tlnit was in debt and every one that whs discontented looked toOreslutm as a natural leader and deliverer, and the populist olfered him the president iul candi dacy. He would have survived this indignity, however, had he not iu an evil moment, made his rehabilita tion impossible by entering Cleve land's cabinet, where his petty prejudice against ex-President Harri son led Ii i til inlo a course which has wrecked his political fortunes. To this extremity malevolent fate has led Mr. Oresham. Where is now the party that would do dim the honor of proposing him for the presidential i.oniina'.ion or for the nomination to any other Imsirtant office? Not the democratic party. which bus been hamjiered and humil iated by his Hawaiian policy, i.oi the republican party, which gave him all the offices which he ever held until this year, and which he has abandoned and antagonized. Even the paltry honor of a populist nomination would scarcely lie given to him now. It is a lamentable end ing to the career of this erstwhile man of destiny. He can never fig ure again in a national convention. The lists of presidential possibilities, no matter how long drawn out they may be or by whatsoever party made up, will never mention the name of Walter . (Sresham. His is no long er a name to conjure with. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. SILVER IX HIS SPIF.. A news report from New York bearing date of Decern U-r 1, states that Professor John A. Wyeth. of the Polyclinic Hospital has per formed a remarkable surgical ojiera- tion on Joseph Cook, a storekeea-r of Scran ton, Miss., who was shot in the back by roblaTs on April 19, and ! has been paralyzed from the breast been paralyzed from the breast! down ever since, in consequence. The ojierat ion consisted in remov ing two slivers of bone from the fifth vertebra, which had enetrated to the heart of the spinal marrow, and, though it may lie weeks betore the diK-tors can confidently predict re-, suits, the indications are that it will prove a complete success, and that CVsik will regain the use of his legs. The patient was brought to this city a month ago, and the operation was performed H days since, after it hud been determined which one of the six bullet holes in his back caused the trouble. When the fragments of bone had lss-n withdrawn cerebral rluid fol o wed, and it was necessary to take two stitches In the membrane of the spinal cord. Mr. Cisik, who is 31 y-ars old, was alone in his store at night uhen two lads entered and stole alsiut I10O0 from the safe at the isiints of their pistols. Thy comtielled him to walk two miles to a lonely lake in the wotsls, and when they reached the water they emptied their revol vers at him and left him for dead. He wrote their names on his shirt front from the bhssl which welled from his wounds and then linmic unconscious. He was found the next afternoon and taken home, but the physicians in the ncighborhoKl were able to do little for him. His body is now lncas In plaster of Paris, but b is chrVrful and full of hojs?.- HOW XI III BETTER t The new democratic taritf bill is given out.
