St. Louis, Nov. 24.—A sensation was
caused hero by the nows that Frank M.
Hnrdenbrook had beau arrested in New
York for some act in connocion with
Benjamin G. Sandford'a robbery of the
Continental National bank. Hardeu-
brook was married here three weeks ago
to Annie Melton, daughter of A. B. Mel
ton, and tho wodding was a swell affair,
lie was called Judge Hardenbrook, and
it was unnouuced that ho had met Miss
Melton while she was visiting her uncle,
a millionaire, of the name of Dameron,
in San Francisco.
The meeting, courtship and wedding
all made up an interesting romance. In
connection with tho elaborate accouuts
of the wedding printed here, the hint
was giqcn that the bride was to be the
heiress of her wealthy uncle, and at the
same tune an intimation was given that
the bridegroom was very wealthy.
The marriage was apparently not only
tho culmination of a romance, but the
joining of two wealthy and aristocratic
families. This news from New York,
which somehow or other has just reach
ed here, has given St. Louis society
something to talk about.
To Preserve the White City.
Ohio ago, Nov. 24.—The White City

South park board of commissioners held
a joint meeting with the executive com
mittee of the World’s Fair directory
and decided to accept the buildings and
a sura of money sufficient to keep them

disposition of the structures will be, re
mains for the public to say. The state
buildings and many of the foreign build

of architecture erected by Chicago will
remain.

DAILY MARKET REPORTS
Washington, No. 15.—There is no
longer any doubt in tho minds of public
men here that Minister Willis has been
instructed to restore the monarchy in the
Hawaiian Islands, by force if necessary
and without regard to the consequences.
Secretary Gresham is confident that the
restoration can be effected without
bloodshed and oven without serious op
position. This view of the case the
secretary is known to have urged upon
tho president. The president, however,
has not attached much weight to this con
sideration. lie hits examined the whole
affair with that painstaking diligence
that characterizes everything ho does,
and after satisfying liimself that .Secre
tary Gresham’s recommendations mo
based upon truth and justice he has s.r.t
Minister Willis to the Hawaiian Islands .
to carry them out. The question of the
possible consequences of using force to
restore tho cue on. has never moved him;
he has decided that the government of
the United States rather than tlie Cleve
land administration, owes it to itself, as
well as to a weak but friendly neighbor
ing power, to mote out exact justice and
thus right a wrong tint, in his opinion,
would stain his own administration
quite as much as that of his pre.leee.j-
wero it permitted to go uaeorrocted.
He Is Supported bj the Cabinet.
It can bo said on the authority that
tlie president has had the hearty support
of hi3 cabinet in the formulation of Min
ister Willis'. instructions. There is prob
ably good basis for the reports that when
Secretary Gresham first urged liis view
of the case upon the president, Secretary
Lamont and Attorney General Olney
doubted the wisdom of carrying out
such a policy . They are said to have
maintained that whatever wrongs might
have been committed by the Harrison
administration they could not be laid at
the door of the present regime; while,
on tine other hand, by reason of repeated
recognition, but more especially on ac
count of the long delay of the admiuis-
tion in acting upon the -request of the
provisional government for annexation,
the islanders had been led to believe
that under no circumstances would the
queen be restored, and they had there
fore settled down to the new order of
things with confidence that it would li®
permanent. The president’s reply to all
this was brief. He simply s:iid that the
delay was necessary to get at the facts,
and these having been ascertained it
only remained for this government to
do its duty.
Secretary Herbert’s loyalty to the pres
ident has been most gratifying to him.
Surrounded by scores of ambitions naval
officers, who have waited eagerly for the
annexation of the islands, and who have
taken an almost personal pride in tho
action of Captain Wiltse in landing the
marines from the Boston, he lias stood
steadfastly by liis chief in the policy
which carries with it a stern rebuke to
the navy and a lesson to over-enterpris
ing officers for all time to come. The
fact that Captain Wiltso is dead has
added almost fanaticism to tho enthusi
astic admiration of the young men of
the service of what they are pleased to
call “Wiltso’a patriotism.”
A Declaration of War.
how it got there, it is today the only
government in Hawaii, recognized as
such at home and abroad, an i that any
attempt to forcibly overturn itVby a for
eign power is in the nature of war
against a friendly government, which. 03
I understand, requires the consent of
congress. I am not informed that the
president is recommended to arrogate
any such power to himself, and he has
no right to assume it.
“The monarchy cannot bo restored
except through this force from without,
and if that supporting force is with
drawn it will be forthwith overthrown.
There will be no safety for those who
have supported the provisional govern
ment if the queen is restored, and if the
attempt is made I fear that the results
will be of the gravest character. I be
lieve that bloodshed will be tho inevita
ble result, and Americans, American
property and agricultural interests will
be the greatest sufferers.

San Francisco, Nov. 15.—Hawaiian i
Consul Wilder was disagreeably sur- j
prised tho other day, when he presented
a draft drawn on the provisional gov- |
eminent at a bank and the bank refused |
to honor it. It .was explained to him by ,
the bank officials that they did not know
what might happen to Honolulu in view
of this government’s action, and they i
did not care to take any risks. Hereto
fore tho drafts on the provisional gov
ernment have beeji paid without quo-:- ;

Certain of the president’s critics here
charge him with open violation of the
constitution. A prominent Democratic
Bonator, who dees not care to have his
name used in connection with a criti
cism of the administration, said:
“The constitution provides that con
gress shall declare war, and yet the
president, in giving Minister Willis in
structions on the line of Secretary Gres
ham’s letter, has declared war against a
friendly power. It makes not the slight
est difference how tho provisional gov
ernment got into power. It may have
been by overt acts committed by the na
val forces of half the nations of the
globe; it would make no difference. The
fact is that the provisional government
has been recognized by all the impor
tant powers, and that the United States
has not only accorded it diplomatic rec
ognition, but has accredited two minis
ters to it. Minister Willis has now been
sent to the islands, backed by a naval
force to overthrow this government.
“The instant a man from the Phila
delphia or the Adams sets foot on
Hawaiian soil an act of war will have
been committed by express direction of
she president of the United States. . It
seems to me that no student of the con
stitution can find any other interpreta
tion of the acts, and that it must bo ap
parent to all that the president ha?
usurped a function belonging exclusive
ly to congress. I am at a loss to see
how the executive can aggrandize to
itself tho function of determining such a
question as this when it is the plain in
tent of the constitution that such mat
ters shall be settled with the advice and
consent of the senate, to say notliing of
the house of reprasenafives.”

• Liverpool again came in the way of a
surprise, as it was generally conceded
that prices on that side would be lower
still.
True, they were lower at the opening
and the market was steady, but the buy
ing demand was greater than for some
time heretofore, and on the next cable
prices were up one to two points and the
market was firm.
The second Liverpool cable, which
was received before the opening on this
side, gave the market a surprisingly
strong undertone, and there was a dis
position on tho part of shorts to cover.
If Liverpool will only keep up the
pace set by the morning’s advices and
the Manchester spinners will buy as lib
erally as they did, there is no reason why
prices should not improve, as the only
bearish factor which presented itself to
day was the past receipts, which have
been favorable to the “bears” for sev
