by the Volks Zeitung, of Cologne, to the
effect that Mgr. Satolli, the papal dele-

ROME* GAt* TUESDAY MORNING. LNOVEMBER 14 t 1893.
STANDSTOGRESHAH
The President Will Carry Out
the Program Arranged.
LILIOUKALANI AND HER
Throne—Cleveland is Less San
guine than Gresham as to
Minisister Willis.
Washington, Nov. J 3. —The sensation
caused by the publication of Secretary
Gresham’s letter to the president recom
mending the restoration of Queen
Lilioukalani is gradually wearing away
and public men here are beginning to
discuss its various phases in cool blood.
The question which is now on every
tongue is whether Minister Willis has
been instructed to restore the queen to
hex throne by tue use of the United
States naval force now stationed at Hono
lulu. This inquiry the officials of the
state and navy departments are dumb.
Aside from a semi-official inti/nation
that the cabinet had approved the recom
mendation of Secretary Gresham and
had authorized the publication of his
letter to the president, nothing cAuld be
learned. Secretary Gresham declined to
add anything to his published letter.
Secretary Herbert politely refused to
discuss any phase of the Hawaiian af
fair, but stated that it was not the in
tention of the department at this time to
send any more vessels to Honolulu. The
Philadelphia and the Adams, which are
now at that port, are regarded as pow
erful enough to protect the American
interests, and to assist Minister Willis
in carrying out his instructions, what
ever they may be.
The agitation in business communities
having relations with Hawaii is reflected
in the following dipatch, which was re
ceived by Congressman O’Neil, of Massa
chusetts:
Boston, Mass., Nov. 11.—Please call on
proper officials and request on behalf of
your constituents holding property in
Honolulu and throughout the kingdom
that instructions besent to the United
States minister there to protect the same.
We believe there is great danger of blood
shed and destruction of property. Have
telegraphed Senator Hoar these facts.
_/" Charles Brewer & Co.
Brewer & Co. have branches in tbp
Hawaiian Islands. Congressman O’Neil
promptly called on Secretary Gresham,
and after a conference sent the follow
ing dispatch:
Careful and positive instructions have
been sent to protect life and property.
The fear that bloodshed may follow
an attempt to restore the queen by force
causes much anxiety as to whether the
president has instructed Minister
to call on the marines to aid him in the
event the provisional government resists
his attempt to restore the monarchy.
There is good autliority for the statement
that Sec retary Gresham is confident that
the provisional government will surren
der as soon as Minister Willis presents
his credentials and explains the nature
of his mission.
The secretary of state is inclined to
hold the provisional loaders to their
word expressed in their original procla
mation in which they declared that the
government was organized “until terms
of union with the government of the
United States of America have been ne
gotiated and agreed upon.”
He thinks that the fact that Hawaii
has had an application for annexation
pending before this government has pre
vented any attempt at counter revolu
tionamong the queen’s followers. Witn
the removal of this sole prop he thinks
the provisional government will tumble
to the ground and the restoration of the
queen can be peaceably accomplished.
The president is said to be less san
guine than Secretary Gresham as to the
peaceful outcome of Minister Willis’s
mission, but having accepted Commis
sioner Blount’s report and Secretary
Gresham’s recommendations, he is de
termined to see the affair through at all
costs. .
New* From Hawaii.
San Francisco, Nov. 13.—The steamer
China, which left Honolulu Nov. 7, has
arrived in port here. Her officers report
that all was quiet when they left. Min
ister Albert S. Willis was to present his
credentials to President Dale the day the
vessel left.
His intended address had already been
submitted to the president in order to
enable him to prepare ids reply. Its
contents were kept strictly secret. Mr.
Willis’ special communication to the
provisional government would follow
later—possibly in time to be reported by
the mail of the 11th.
The government party is confident
that Washington policy is to maintain a
white man’s government, with no possi
bility of reviving a native monarchy.
The royalists betray great depression,
but are circulating among the native
populace the boast that the queen is to
fie immediately restored by Willis.

TWO VERDICTS ~FOUND.
A Murder Case That Took a Sudden and
Serious Turn.
Elberton, Ga., Nov. 18.—The body
of Richard Kornaghal, master ma
chinist of the Elberton oil mills, was
found Friday night in a ditch with seven
bullet holes in it and the head badly bat
tered.
Will Mayfield, an employe of the mill,
had a difficulty with Kornaghal some
weeks weeks before and he stated to the
coroner’s jury tL.it it was himself who
had done the killing and he was com
pelled to do it to preserve his own life.
He stated that he had met Kornaghal
and Kornaghal began to taunt him about
a beating Kornaghal had given him,
and that he replied that if Kornaghal
was an honorable man he world not
make allusions .to this. Kornaghal re
plied that he' would cut Mayfield’s
threat. Mayfield said that Kornaghal
slapped at him with a knife, and he
showed to the jury his cut
scratch on his aim where Kofl&SnH
knife had cut him.
Upon this statement, and tiM||m||l|
nothing to contradict it, the juHHHH
ed a verdict of justifiable
Mayfield was allowed to go.
Everything was serence
then, until about 12 o'cIockMHSRBH

A negro, Ed Teaely, had

He swore that he was an eyMMg|||l||||
the killing, and his

He claimed that the
by Will and LuU. r
and that both were engaged
culty.
He testified that he was standing on
the railroad embankment, near the mills,
when the shooting began, and that lie
saw both the May fields shoot Kornaghal,
and after killing him he saw them roll
his body into the ditch and strike it sev
eral times in the head. This testimony
was affirmed and denied by different
whit® men, and although the testimony
was questioned it had an effect upon the
jurors, and they returned the following
verdict:
We, the coroner’s jury, impanelled to
hold an inquest over the body of Richard
Kpruaghal, who lies dead before us, find
that he came to his death from pistol
wounds inflicted by W. J. Mayfield and
wounds inflicted on the head with some
unknown weapon in the hands of Luther
Mayfield. The killing was, in our opinion,
murder.
The jury was the same as the one
which acquitted the Mayfields in the
morning, with the exception of one man,
who was on the first jury, but absent
when the second was impanelled.
MR. WHITNEY’S VIEWS.
The Causes Which Led to the Recent Elec
tion Results.
New* .York, Nov. 13.—The World
prints a letter from ex-Secretary of the
Navy Whitney, giving his views of the
recent elections. He says:
“Last Tuesday’s voting was, in my
opinion, negative, not positive. The re
sult was a Democratic defeat, but not a
Republican triumph. The people had
no intention of rescinding their emphatic
and well-considered repudiation of vi
cious Republican policies. They could
not, however, refrain from, and cannot
be blamed for, expressing their dissatis
faction for existing conditions, so they
voted against the party in power. It is
true that the Democratic party was not
responsible for the conditions, but they
existed nevertheless. The party to suf
fer was necessarily the p irty in power.
It had had no opportunity’ to put in force
a new policy’ and show a beneficial es- I
feet, but discontent from whatever cause |
is visited naturally upon the party in;
power.
‘•The check in view should be, and I
believe will be beneficial in result. Af
ter such a period of distrust as we have
just experienced, the stability and con
ditions of trade are the first essential evi
dences of a return to prosperity. Con
gress owes it to the country, not only to
reform the tariff but to reform it at
once, in a conservative and capable spir
it, and at once the redemption of all
party pledges is necessary. But quick
i-edemption of this greatest of party
pledges is more than necessary—more
than sound policy, more than wise par
tisanship. It is a patriotic duty. In ac
cordance with speed and wisdom with
which this duty will be discharged, will,
in my view, be the future of the Demo
cratic party.”
WILL NOT FUSE.
Alabama Populists Determine to Play a
Lone Hand.
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 13.—The
chances are that the Populists will not
fuse with the Jeffersonian Democrats,
or Kold men, in this state in the coming
elections. The platformsof the two par
ties are rather close together and both
are working to a common end to de
feat the organized Democ* .tic party in
the state.
It has been a foregone conclusion here
that the two parties would fuse. This
impression was dispelled, however,
when the Populists announced that at a
county convention held here Saturday
night the following resolution was
adopted:
Resolved, That the delegates from thi*
convention be instructed to support ua
man from another political organization
for any state office save that ot People’*
party.

QUEEN OF THE SEA.
Columbia, the New Warship,
Launched.
HER SPEED, POWER AND
Endurance Were Looked After.
She Promises to Win This
Distinction.
Philadelphia, Nov. 13.—The depart
ure of the cruiser Columbia from
Cramps’ ship yard Saturday morning
was an event of more than passing inter
est to the American people. As the great
vessel cast loose her moorings and
slipped quietly down the Delaware few
realized that another world’s record was
to be broken by Yankee brains and that
this great mass of steel
through the
wai ship h
n;inn\vrT
KO n ' s ia ’ r
attain a speed of at
S’ ■ -. ” aßFknots an hour. The con-
of the New York
a speed of 20 knots for four
hours, with a premium >i
$50,000 for every quarter knot in excess.
The government demands a speed of 21
knots in the Columbia. On the official
trial of the former her builders re
ceived a bonus of $200,000, and if the
Columbia sustains the reputation
achieved by the Cramps in other vessels
they will doubtlccs earn a premium of
fully SIOO,OOO with their new creation.
The Columbia is unique among our
war vessels. Besides being the first
triple screw steamer, she combines speed,
endurance and power to a marvelous
degree. In designing this vessel, the de
partment evidently had in view our only
available method of warfare—the de
struction of the enemy’s commeroec—and
she was created with the intention of
being able to capture and sink such*hips
as the City of Paris and the Teutonic
should they ever fall into the hands of
an enemy. Since her design, the Cunar
ders Luciana and Campania have be< n
constructed, both of which are enrolled
in the naval reserve of Great Britain.
If our new cruiser does all that experts
believes she will, both of these fast mer
chant ships would find her a dangerous
adversary to encounter upon the high
seas.

Chicago, Noy. 13.—Six months aM
William Doidge watched by the death
bed of his lifelong friend, Louis Bur

Burrows’ home and causing thd death of
: her youngest child.

Swindled the Dealers.
Malone, N. Y., Nov. 13.—Two stran
gers called upon liquor dealers with a
sample of sherry and sold a large quan
tity at $1.25 a gallon. Then they pur
chased a number of five gallon jugs and
a quantity of burned sugar and coloring
matter, repaired to a livery stable and
mixed the decoction in a barrel where
the horses were accustomed to drink.
This they delivered to their customers
and collected the money. They would
have escaped detection but their meas
urements were short, and warrants were
issued to compel reimbursement. The
men learned in some way of their in
tended arrest and fled before an officer
could apprehend them.
Tried to Wreck a Train.
Lebanon, Ky., Nov. 13.—A rail was
removed from the track of the Knox
