Annexation to the United States De¬ sired by the hew Government, of A State Washington received special says: Saturday Secretary Foster morn- '»« the monarchy -"ivice, from Hawaii overthrown, to the and effect that was a pro- visional government established in the interest, of the whole people of the islands. The cabinet was voted out on January 12th, and another appointed on the 14th, on which day the queen rnpted pro¬ rogued the legislature snd att to proclaim a new constitution, uisfranchis- ing foreigners and increasing the loyal prerogatives. January 16th the citizens organized a committee of safety. Oa the 17th the provisional government was established and the queen dethroned. The revolution was single accomplished without the loss of a life. The United States troops landed in accordance with the request of the American minister to preserve the property of Americans. The new gov¬ ernment was promptly recognized by most The of the diplomatic representatives. head four men who constitute the of the provisional government are of high character, one having resigned a place on the supreme bench to assume the po¬ sition. The latest advices report the island in a state of tranquility. PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT. Mr. Mott Smith, the Hawaiian minis¬ ter at Washington, has received an offi¬ cial the dispatch confirming the report that Hawaiian government had been overthrown and that the new commis¬ sioners from the new government were on their way to Washington from San Francisco to ask that Hawaii be annexed to the United States. Mr. Smith is now at the state department waiting the ad¬ vice of the secretary of state of the in¬ formation he has received. The state and Davy department have been officially informed of the revolution. DEMAND OF THE PROCLAMATION. A special from San Francisco gives the following details of the revolution in Ha¬ waii: “The first intimation of trouble came tried on January 15th, when the queen to get the cabinet to sign the new constitution that disfranchised all for¬ eigners and put the whole government in the hands of native politicians. The ministers refused, and jp-hen threatened by the queen fled for their lives. They returned later and induced the queen to postpone the coup. There was a little public meeting in front of the palace. The queen announced the failure of her plans and a native orator demanded the lives of the ministers. Early in the evening the citizen met and formed a committee of public safety. “On January 16th a mass meeting was held in the armory. At about 5 o’clock p. m. the United States steamship Bos¬ ton landed 300 men fully armed. They marched to the office of the consul gene¬ ral of the United States. The marines were sent to the American legation, while the sailors marched out along Merchant street with two Gatling guns and camped for a while on private grounds. They stayed ashore all night. All day Tuesday, the 18th, the commun¬ ity was in a state of expectancy, looking to the committee of public safety to do something to end the tension. The com¬ mittee in the meantime was not idle, being incessantly occupied completing its organization and completing the final arrangements necessary to the proclama¬ tion of a provisional government and its protection by an armed force. “In the meantime the committee on public safety, accompanied by members of the government about to be formed, proceeded to the government building. There a proclamation was read, of which points are as follows: “First. Tbe Hawaiian monarchical system of government is hereby abro- grated. i < ‘Second. A provisional government for concrol and management of public affair^ and protection of public peace is hereby established to exist until terms of union with tbe United States of America have been negotiated and agreed up- on. ‘ “Third. Such provisional govern¬ ment shall consist of an executive coun¬ cil of four members who shall adminis¬ ter the executive department of the gov¬ ernment with an advisory council of four¬ teen, who shall have a general legislature for authority. < L ‘Fourth. All officers of the govern¬ ment are to exercise their functions ex¬ cept the queen, Marshal Wilson and the cabinet. The provisional government and cabi¬ net went to the palace and submitted their plan to the queen. She refused at first to yield, but finally returned to her country- residence, her troops surrendered and the government was in the hands of foreigners. The deposition of the queen was followed by the sending of the fol¬ lowing named commissioners to Washing¬ ton to negotiate with the United States government: Marsden Thurston, Castle, Wilder, and Carter, Mr. Thurston was seen at the Occidental Saturday morning. He said: “We shall start for Washington to secure annexation to the United States. We want no protecto¬ rate and no republic. A republic would be worse than a monaichy, for ignorant Kanakas would rule. I may say that the foreigners are unanimously in favor of annexation as the only hope for Hawaii. The queen has been nursiDg her c up de’tat ever since she came to the thioae. She wanted arbitrary power first. She secured the passage of the iufamous lot¬ tery bill, and then sprang a new consti¬ tution upon them which disfranchised all foreigners.” NO ANNEXATION P.ROBABLE. A lengthy interview was held Saturday between Secretary of State Foster and Dr. Mott Smith, Hawaiian minister, at Washington. At its close Secretary Foster went over to the white house and had a conference with President Harri¬ son. While, of course, no statement of policy to be pursued by ths United States will be made, at least until after the arrival of the commissioners f;om Hawaii, who are to present the request for annexation the United * to States. It may be said that the visit of the Haw aiians will hardly be successful, if the purport thereof has been correctly stated. Aside from an innovation upon the poli¬ cy of the government since its organiza¬ tion, which annexation would be, the in¬ terests of other countries in the Sand¬ wich islands are too large to permit, on the part of the goverment, of those na¬ tions an acquiesence in such annexations. It would involve consequences that the United States would not care, and which its long stttled policy forbids it, to as¬ sume. UNITED STATES WAR VESSELS EN ROUTE TO THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS. A San Francsco special says: The United States flagship, Mohican, with Admiral Skerritt aboard, left Mare Island navy yard at 7 o’clock Sunday morning. She arrived off San Francisco in the afternoon and proceeded direct to sea on her way to Honolulu. The Ranger is expected to leave the yard at any moment and the Adams will follow. For several months there has not been so much bustle and activity at the Mare Island navy yard as shown since the news was received announcing the overthrow of the monarchial government of Hawaii. The various heads of de¬ partments were ordered to report imme¬ diately at the commandant’s office, and orders were issued to them to have the fl igship Mohican and the cruiser Ranger ready to steam away from the yard at once, and the Adams will be ready in forty-eight hours. THE NEWS IN ENGLAND. A London cablegram of Sunday says: The Daily News says of the Hawaii rev- olution: “The oveithrow of the queen appears to be an American coup, Hawaii being the key to the whole group. The Americans, once they possess it, would have no difficulty in making themselves master of the other. Europe, however, has necessities in the same quarter, Hon¬ olulu being the only coaling station on the mail route between San Francisco and Auckland.” JUSTICE LAMAR’S FUNERAL His Remains Laid to Rest in Riverside Cemetery, Macon, With Impressive Ceremonies—A Vast Funeral Procession. The remains of Justice L, Q. C. La¬ mar, as they lay in state at the Virgin home in Vineville, Thursday and Friday morning, were viewed by a great many of those who bad known and loved the dead Justice. Many saw him, however, for the first time, but even they had long admired and respected him. Mrs. La¬ mar, the widow of the dead justice, was still overwhelmed with grief, but with that courage for which she is noted, con¬ trolled her emotions enough to see a few friends and relatives. To her the loss is indeed a sad blow—the lover of her youth and the consort of her declining years lies cold in the embrace of death. Her feelings must indeed be sad. TO THE GRAVE. The procession left the Virgin resi¬ dence in Vineville at 11:30 o’clock Fri¬ day morning under the escort of Marshal Wright of the United States supreme court, who bad charge of the procession from the time it left the residence until the exercises were completed. Marshal Wright was assisted by Captain John L. Hardeman and Captain O. T. Kenan, together with Messrs. Matt. R. Free¬ man and Minter Wimberly from the local bar. The procession moved in the following orderfromtheresider.ee to the chutch: honorary pall bearers; pall bearers; re¬ mains; family of the deceased; supreme court of the United States; Senator Wal¬ thall, Mrs. Chief Justice Fuller, senator and Mrs. Gordon; relatives and friends. The following acied as the honorary pall bearers: Chief Justice L. E. Bleckley, Associate Justices T. J. Simmons and Samuel Lumpkin; and United States District Judges W. T. Newman and Em¬ ory Speer; Hon. Stephen Clay, presi¬ dent of the state senate, Hon. J. M. Terrell, attorney general of Georgia, Hon. Charles L. Bartlett, judge of su¬ perior court, Hon. S. B. Price, mayor of Macon, Dr. Edward A. Flewellen. AT THE CHURCH. Upon the arrival of the cortege at the Mulberry street Metbcdist church, the honorary pall bearers entered through the center aisle and took seats to the left of the pulpit. The active pall bearers, after placing the the remains right in position, occupied pews to of the pulpit. The family occupied the front pews to the left of the center aisle, while the chief justice and associate justices of the United States supieme court, who came as mourners with the family, occupied the front pews on the right of the center aisle, the officers of the supreme court being in the pew immediately in their rear. In the third pew on the right was Senator Walthall, Mrs. Fuller, General and Sirs. Gordon. Relatives and friends occupied the other pews. Bi'hop Fitz¬ gerald, assisted by Dr. Warren A. Cand¬ ler, president of Emory college, and Dr. W. C. Black, pastor of Mulberry Street Methodist church, conducted the services in accordance with the ritual of the Methodist church. The services were lengthy but impressive. From the church the procession pro¬ ceeded up Mulberry to Georgia avenue, thence to College street to Riverside cemetery, the interment taking place in the lot of Colonel Wm. H. Ross. The funeral procession was the largest ever seen in Macon, Every public car¬ riage was iu line, as were nearly all of the private conveyances. The city was filled with visitors from all parts of Geor¬ gia. The lawyers were largely repre¬ sented. During the morning before the servi¬ ces at the church the rtate bar associa¬ tion met and very impressive services were held in honor of Judge Lamar. They attended the funeral in a body. Owing to the muddy condition of the streets it was decided to do away with the military feature of the parade. The body rests in a brick vault, sunk four feet into the ground and very strongly constructed. In this vault is a red cedar box in which the casket lies, which is provided iu the case remains. it is desired The ever after to remove lot in which Mr. Lamar is buried is the same which was tendered to Mrs. Jeffer¬ son Davis for the remains of the late ex¬ president of the southern confederacy. A DYNAMITE EXPLOSION Destroys the Works Near Bessemer, Alabama—Two Men Killed. The Sterling dynamite plant, situated at McAdairy, two miles from Bessemer, Ala., exploded with terrific force early Friday morning. Glasses rattled in the windows in the town and buildings shook; many people dynamite thinking it an earthquake. At the plant trees were torn up by the roots and great holes made in the ground. Two of the employes were in the composing room, where the ex¬ plosion occurred. They were instantly killed and only small pieces of skin and bones were found to tell of their fate.

IN CONGRESSIONAL HALLS. Daily Routine of Both Houses ot tie Fifty-Seconi Congress. Measures Discussed and Bills Passed By Our National Law-Makers, THE SENATE. In the senate, Thursday, on motion of Mr. Hoar, the president was requested provide to return to the senate the act to for the punishment of officers on the high seas. The house concurrent reso¬ lution for the assembling of the two houses of congress in the hall of the house of representatives Wednesday, February 8, 1893 at 1 o’clock in the af¬ ternoon, pursuaut to the requirement of the constitution and the law relating to dent, the election of president and vice-presi¬ in. was reported and concurred Among tbe bills introduced and referred was one of giving a pension of $50 a mouth to the widow of Dr. Elisha Kent Kane, the arctic explorer. Mr. Gorman offered a resolution for the appointment of a committee of three senators to make the necessary arrangements for the inau¬ guration of the president-elect on the 4th of March next. Agreed to. Mr. Faulkner gave notice that Saturday, February 18ih, at 3 o’clock p. m., he would present rsolutious in relation to the death of his late colleague, Senator Kenna. The credentials of Henry Cabot Lodge, as senator from the state of Mass¬ achusetts, beginning March 4th next, were presented and placed on file. The bill heretofore offered by Mr. Cate to re¬ election peal all statutes relating to supervisors taken of and special deputies was from the table and referred to the judici¬ ary committee. Mr. Candler offered a resolution, which was referred to the finance committee, instruct¬ ing that committee to inquire into the existence and purposes of the whisky trust. An hour was devoted to the dis¬ posing of unimportant bills on the cal¬ endar, and then at 2 o’clock, the anti¬ option bill came up. There were not many senators in the chamber during the debate, but those who were present wit¬ nessed the remarkable circumstances of a stale’s rights democrat—Mr. Mills, of Texas—having his argument against the constitutionality of the bill sustained by the stalwart republican, Hiscock, of New York. Mr. Blackburn, noticing the ab¬ sence of so many members asked for a roll call. A call of the senate folowed,and,as a quorum did not respond, the senate, at 4:45 o’clock, adjourned. THE HOUSE. The house journal was read Thursday morning in an abridged form as usual, but Mr. Kilgore demanded that it be read in full, and the speaker directed the clerk to comply with the demand. Mr. Kilgore was afraid the committee on mles would report the special order for consideration, the bankruptery bill, but he evidently received private intelligence that this would not be done, for in a few moments he withdrew his demand, re¬ marking that he did not wish to inter¬ fere with the appropriation bills if the house desired to consider them, as it did not seem to do Wednesday. Mr, McMil- lin, from the committee on rules, report¬ ed back the Dockery resolution for the appointment by the speaker of the 52d congress of a commission of five represen¬ tatives of the 53d congress to inquire into the status of the laws establishing the executive departments and bureaus in Washington city. This was accom¬ panied by a resolution referring the Dockery proposition to the committee on appropriations, with the authority to that committee to bills. incorporate it in one of the appropriate It has already been incorporated in the legislative bill with a modification making the composition of the commission three senators and five representatives. This action taken will preclude it from being struck out on a joint order. Toe resolution was adopted. Mr. Dockery appropriations reported from the commit¬ tee on that the legislative executive judicial appropriation bill had been placed on the calendar. The house then resumed,in committee of the whole, the consideration of the sundry civil ap¬ propriation placed bill. the Some track few of obstructions the bill, but were in none of them proved disastrous, and it made fair progress.The item of appropria¬ tion for ths survey of public lands was ^thfe chief object of attack, but Holman kept his men in line, and amendments looking to an increase of the appropria¬ tion for this purpose from $100,000 to $200,000 and $869,000 were cleared by the appropriation committee cowcatcher. Without disposing of the bill the house adjourned. CAPITAL GOSSIP. The house committee on elections, Monday, discussed tbe contested elec¬ tion case of Miller vs. Elliott, from the seventh South Carolina district, but owiDg to the absence of several members postponed final action until Friday. The expenses of the seven cases decided this session were considered and $10,- 500 allowed to cover them. Saturday afternoon, in the house, was devoted to eulogies over the late Con¬ gressman Stackhouse, of South Carolina. Tom Watson of Georgia, and Mr. Mc- Laurin, of South Carolina, were among the eulogists and delivered speeches that attracted considerable attention and was the subject of much criticisim on the part of the democrats of the house. A Protest from Great Britain. The British government has instructed Sir Julian Pauncefote, its minister at Washington, to protest against the action of the United States officials and forces in Hawaii. The protest, it is un¬ derstood, will be lodged with Secretary of State Foster at once. To what extent the protest goes, cannot be stated now, whether it is restricted to a protest against the action already taken iu Honolulu or whether it goes to the length of protesting in advance, against the an¬ nexation sought for by the representa¬ tives of tbe provisional government now on their way to Washington. Discussed by Senators. The senate had not been in executive session more than an hour Saturday w r hen Mr. Morgan announced the intelligence of the Hawaiian revolution to the senate. Although it could only be considered iu an informal marme^ debate was at once precipitated that occupied the greater part of the secret session. Generally all seemed to favor annexation or the estab¬ lishment of a protectorate. Strong prob¬ ability of international complication was urged in opposition to either scheme. In the house of representatives there was strong feeling expressed annexation. by leading democrats against At same there was an equally unanimous opinion that no other nation should be permitted to step in and control tbe des¬ tinies of the island. The Monroe doc¬ trine was again upheld as a cardinal principle in our foreign policy and as de- minion maeding the exclusion of European do¬ “What over could territory so near our own we do with it, and what a lot of trouble its affairs would give us,” is perhaps a fair summary of the state¬ ments made informally by members. It was said at the same time that the course of Hawaii in adopting and seeking an¬ nexation is practically the same as that token by Texas when it became part of the United States. The Question of Annexation. A Washington special of Monday jays: The news of the queen’s protest against the action of the American miuister at Hawaii, considerably complicates the situation wirii refereuee to annexation. It is feared that the British government will now try to step in os the defender of the rights of the dethroned queen,and by intriguing with the government which has just been overthrown, attempt to establishment a protectorate over the Hawaiian islands. Although there is faltering and hesitation on the part of many of the conservative men at direct Washington as to the wisdom aggressive of annexation, any step taken on the part of Great Britain would stimulate the feeling in favor of t’ue United States establishing at least a protectorate over the islands, which furnish the key to the control of the northern Pacific coast. It is admit¬ ted on all hands that the question about to be presented to the United States is one the importance of which cannot be overestimated, and the conduct of which wili ri quire prompt hut delicate handling. The mutter has been brought to the at¬ tention of congress by a resolution intro¬ duced Monday by Senator Chandler, em- powtrii g the j r.sid nt to treat with the Hawaiian commissioners who are en route from San Francisco. As the qu s- tion is purely a diplomatic one, in wnich the United States will probably have to conti nd w.th Great Briti m, and per¬ haps other countries, it s probable that its discussion will go on behind closed doors. TRADE REVIEW. Dun and Bradstreet’s Report for the Past Week. R. G. Dun & Co’s, weekly review of trade says there has been some increase in the distribution of products during the past week, and the demand for man¬ ufactured goods i3 distinctly larger so that business has perceptibly improved at many points. Yet the outgo of gold, expected to rxceed $3,000,000, reduces treasury resources, causes increased ner- vousuess about the future, and renders men more reluctant to engage in new un¬ dertakings. comparatively Money is everywhere easy and cheap, nevertheless there is more sense of uncertainty about the fut¬ ure than appeared a mouth ago. Money is in good demand, but currency return¬ ing from the country and southern cities generally report improvement, especially at Louisville, Nashville, Knoxville and Memphis, with good prospects and col¬ lections. At Little Rock, trade is quiet and collections slow, but in Atlanta bus¬ iness increases and collections are very fair. At New Orleans trade is quiet and money in fair demand with an ample supply; but cotton is dull with light receipts. Sugar is still strong; iron and steel breaking prices, though the de¬ mand and sales are large. Bessemer pig at Pittsburg has falleu to $13.25, and other markets for pig are irregular, though sales are large. Bnsiness is fin¬ ished products is very heavy, but fur many kinds prices are lowir than ever known. r Jhe contracts for cruisers, given to tbe Pittsburg works, and for elevated works he, given to a Pennsylva¬ nia mill are mentioned as remarkably low, although structural iron works have far more business than usual. Business failures during the week num¬ ber for the United States, 255; Canada, 40; total 295 against 332 last week. WHAT BRADSTREET SAYS. Bradstreet says: The features of bus¬ iness the past week has been a gradual return of movements of general mer¬ chandise and produce to their accustomed channels. Boats are once more running freely on some southern streams except river tr: ffic between New Orleans and the north, and at some Atlantic tide¬ water points. Produce and other per¬ ishable goods are again moving freely, with a loss of some of the advance in prices referred to last week, Eastern jobbers end dry goods mills report the beginning of what appears to be a most active January’s demand for cotton and woolen staple goods for years past. Cot¬ tons are slroDg, and print cloths are firmer with the surplus cut down to 1,000 pieces agaiGSt 248,000a jobbers year ago. Printers are unable to furnish as fast as goods are demanded, and Janu¬ ary’s sales promise to largely influences exceed those have for 1892. The usual been at work oa cotton prices. and against The English strike, prospects for the anti option bill and reduced or in¬ creased movements from plantations show¬ to ports, the Det result for the week ing a decline of one-tenth of a cent. Considerable improvement is noted throughout the south, where the effects of the cold snap a week or two ago were severe. Baltimore announces a larger volume of orders than for the same peri¬ od in 1892, and reports that country merchants very generally count on a good spring trade. The recent ice blockade having been raised at Richmoud, orders for goods are active with the exception of shoes; as the demand for tobacco, while travelers for that city report that the bad weather prevents their reaching interior points prices as they had expected. At Charleston for rosin and turpentine are low, but the intended curt filing of the output of the season is expected to improve prices and profits. Business has revived at Mem¬ phis, where navigation is under way again, while at Atlanta satisfactory or¬ ders are being received for all staple goods. At New Orleans the di-tributive trade has been checked as w T ell as exports of wheat,by ice in the river. At Galveston and other Texas cities country merchants are buying freely to supply their wants for the Epring trade. Mercantile collections throughout the south very generally are slow’, as is to be expected. IT IS NOW SENATOR LINDSAY. Kentucky Sends Him to Washington as Carlisle’s Successor.

Our readers bare doubtless noticed the numerous discussions by the scientists and hygienists as to the relative value of the various baking powders. A careful sifting of the evidence leaves no doubt as to ths superiority of the Royal Baking Powder in purity, wholesomeness and strength, from a scientific standpoint. An opinion, how¬ ever, that will bars perhaps greater influ¬ ence with our practical housekeepers, is that given by Marion Harland, the well known and popular writer, upon matters pertain¬ ing to the science of domestic economy, of housekeeping, and of home cooking. In a letter publL>hi*i in the Philadelphia Ladies’ Home Journal, this writer says: “I regard the Royal Baking Powder as the best manufactured and in the market, «o far as I have any experience in the use of such compounds. Since the introduction of it into my kitchen I have used no other in making biscuits, cakes, etc., and hare en- tirely discarded for such purposes tbe home¬ made combination of one-third soda, two- thirds cream of tartar. “Every box h is been in perfect condition wben it came into my hands, and the con- tents have given complete satisfaction. It is an aet of simple justice, an i a. so a pleas- ure, to recommend it Marion unqualifiedly Harland.” to Amer- lean housewives. City Fanners. While many have left the farm for’ town and city during recent years, and and qiany business men of means have invested iu farms, ytt only a c >mpara- tively small number of city men have actually gone out ou the farm and hus¬ tled for a living. These have been mainly men who have broken down under the confinement of office work and have sought the country for health’s sake,some without experience in farm affairs, and others returning to the farm after many years of active business life. Experienced farmers have had a good deal of lun out of the blunders of these “embroidered night¬ shirt farmers,” as Bill Nye calls them, yet as a rule the city farmers have been fairly successful, and some of them ex¬ ceptionally so. With a limited knowl¬ edge farm of methods, and sometimes handicapped by poor health, they have succeeded where many “to the manner born” have failed, Whether this is the result of superior business methods, or better knowledge of the demands of consumers through residence in the city, or what not, the fact remains, and it may be profitable for others to look into the causes of this success and apply the win- ning methods to their own affairs.—Na- tional Stockman. At it Again. “The clove,” said the exchange editor, “is probably the strongest thing of its size-” “Isn’t the nutmeg greater?” broke in the financial editor. “You think so,” retorted the other, glaring at him, “because it bears the mace?” “Such talk as that,” thundered the railway editor, grabbing his cane, “I dc- spicel”—Chicago Tribune. Slight Misunderstanding. Mudge—“I was looking over my top coat today, and I find that the moths have nearly ruined it.” Yabsley—‘ Why don’t you sue them for damages?” “Sue the moths for damages? You talk like a child.” “Ididn’t mean the moths; I meant the pawnbrokers.”—Indianapolis Journal. Baking Powder is absolutely pure. No other equals it, or approaches it in leavening strength, purity, or wholesomeness. (See U. S. Gov’t Reports.) No other is made from cream of tartar specially refined for it and chemically pure. No other makes such light, sweet, finely-flavored, and wholesome food.

It is a solid piece, weighing 418 pounds, on the smooth surface of which appear the outlines of several diff-rent specie? of animals, as' if traced by human hands, Geologists are said to have examined the nature of the petrifac ion, and to have agreed that its formation dates back 3,500 years by the most cons<rvative ca’cu- lation. It was unearthed by ditchers in a mucky swamp. Several agents of the Ohio commission are also said to have examined the strange object, and are proposing to utilize it to add to the in¬ terest of Ohio’s exhibit at tne world’s fair.
