Republican senators will try to show that this step was not taken until it appeared to the authorities here that such a vessel wns not wanted. Rut at tinut time Senator Lodge sind others will likely contend that this impression was based upon a misconception on the pari of our min ister of the purport of the statement made to him by President Dole of the Hawaiian republic. It is likely tbalt the discussion over the Hawaiian matter may consume the morning hour for several days. The debate yesterday was precipi tated by a piece of pa.Kia>mentry strat egy and can be maintained in the same way. Mr. Lodge Hougiht to call up the 'A/wlrlnh resolution, but was blocked by Mr. Oookrell. who presented a privi leged matter in the shupe of the con ference report on th*> urgent deficiency bill, tbait ibcrimr one of the questions which alwhvs has the right of way.

Y., Jan. 20.—There was no Change In tbe strike situati :t bore today. Uip to noon, Che companies had made no effort Co start out* on any of Che lines which were expected to be opened today, end but few on those they have In operation. Large crowds gathered In the vicinity of the various depots, but most of the pensotts com posing them were sight-seers end they gave the police and tmllUla but little trouble. Mayor ScSileren took hold of Che #trike with new determination to day. Puhllct Indignation at Repeated disturbances In BpJU) of police end mili tia, and public discomfort due 'to the failure of the companies to restore the opera,tlon of their roads even with the olid of pWHce and troops, stirred him to action. He sent for the strike leaders and also for Che railroad presi dents and held protracted conferences. Nothing was accomplished that brings Che strike any nearer settlement. The mayor sent out the following official statement covering the meJtter at 4 p. m.: .-y . . "An sffort was made today to ascer tain If an adjustment could be affected in the interest of public convenience and safety by which all surface rail roads could be restored to Immediate operation. To this end the mayor had conferences with Messrs. Connelly, Best and Ulb.in,representing th» former omployes of the rallroids, and Inter with various represent!'tlvea j of the companies, including Messrs.' Lewis, Norton and Wicker*. The effort was without resjlt. CcrporalUon Counsel McDonnld nnd Comtnlseion'r White were present at the conferences." Mr. Connolly later gave out the prop osition thut the men mode to tlhe mayor. It was that the companies re store to their pay rolls all men who were In their employ January 12 and the mayor to appoint n loommlttee to whom both sides could 'submit their case, and the committee ip decide who is to remain in the employ the roads raid at whrut terms. The men made no condition requiring the discharge of the men employed to Ml their ptapfM. This proposition was rejected bl the presi dents of the companies. ] T.ae mayor, after the f-ilure of Ms arbUrrMt.in. decided that till- situation was becoming grave. He lVimedlately Held 'i consultation with kiig. Gen. MoLoer, and nt 5 p. m. giro out tho foUrwIng addition to hi* :". r."r state ment: ,r-.-.

Berlin, Jan. 20.—Politics and fashion have mingled at several great social functions in the last week. The emne- ror gave a banquet to the diplomatic oorps and tbe Chapter of the Black Ea gle. Freiherr von Marachall Bleber- steln, who is supposed to be near the end of bis .political career, gave a par liamentary dinner and Dr. Mlquel. his colleague in the Prussian cabinet, re ceived a large oompany of depu-tlee. The great event of the week among politicians, however, was Chancellor Prince Hoheniohe's first official recep tion last Wednesday evening. It ful filled all the expectations of the Prus sian noblemen, who have been celebrat ing the new chancellor ao the beat host yet seen In the Wilhelm Strasee. The chancellor was assisted in receiving hta guests by his son Alexander, member of the relchstag, Count Schoenborn and the chancellory officials. Wllmoakl. Guenther and Klllani. He met every body Just within the door of tbe Tbree- Emperor Hall and gave him a welcome of diplomatic cordiality. Nearly Half of the guests were deputies. Every party except the social democracy, even the Richter radicals, was well repre sented. Clerical deputies were more nu merous than at any previous ministe rial function In ten years. Among them wa* the veteran Freiherr von Bahorlemer-Alst. wbo ha* dropped al most out of sight Mince he advocated the army bill and was unloaded by the democratic majority of hi* party. Many Catholic clergymen were also present. The cabinet complete, most of the fed- - era! councillors, the great men of the army and navy and many ambassadors came early and stayed to the end. Among the high court officials were the Prince* of Hobonlohe-Ochrlngcn, Hatz- feldt, Hatibor, Fueratenbcrg and Slot- berg-Wernigerode. borne forty Berlin editors and Coreign correspondents re sponded to the new chancellor's invi tation*. Despite the throng, the ar rangements proved perfect. Supper was served at small tabks in the large con gress hall. Those whose cluince* at tho table were small found a line buffet at their service. The host moved about In cessantly, exchanging greeting*, join ing In coniersa.km und drawing to- gelucr congenial groups. HI* open and affable manners won for him a gen uine social triumph which undoubted ly will prove valuable to him In hi* political work. It was midnight before the company began to dispense. Freiherr von Alanschall Blebersteln'a dinner on Thursday wa* more purely official. Like the chancellor's. It was remarkable tor the number of clerical* K tsont, among them were Dr*. Liber. chem and Llngens and Count Horn- pesoii. It was 0.111 more remarkable for the appearance of the minister's bitter est political enemies, such as Count Mirbaeh, Hsrr von Kardorff and Prof. Kropatschek of th* extreme Agrarian group. The startling marou of evenui In France and the rumors of Impend ing changes in the highest official cir cles were the chief topic In the recep tion room. At the Chapter of Pile Black Eagle, the old castle, on Thursday af ternoon the emperor hat ordered Gen. Count WaKit-raee to wear the gold chain which once hung on He.d Mttndial Moltku’s breas..
