HONDURAS DALLES TO TIMS.
A Warship Ordered to Enforce Justice
for u American.
Washington, March 4.—The United
States has determined that Honduras
must comply with demands for the
punisnment of the murderer of an
American citizen. Diplomatic means
having1 failed, the cruiser Montgom
ery has left Mobile, Ala., for there
to see if the presence of an Ameri
can man-of-war will not have a whole
some effect upon the Honduras au
thorities.
The instructions to the commander
of the ship are that he shall thor
oughly investigate the matter and
shall assist the American minister to
that republic, Pierce M. 1L Young,
in obtaining the prosecution of the
offenders.
The story of the murder of the
American in Honduras, os told by the
diplomatic correspondence on the sub
ject is unusually Interesting. Some
years ago Charles R. Renton, an
American, purchased an estate near
Brewer’s Lagoon, Honduras, a short
distance from Trujillo, and lived there
until March, 1894, when he was set
upon by a number of negroes and
Hondurans and killed. Mrs. Renton
informed the Honduran authorities of
the facts in the case and waited for
them to arrest and punish the of
fenders. Patience finally ceased to be
a virtue. She thereupon wrote to Sec
retary Gresham and substantiated her
statements with the affidavits of a
number of nearby residents and wit
nesses of the murder. Through Min
ister Young Secretary Gresham made
representations to Honduras that the
murderer of Mr. Renton should be
punished. Honduras has diplomatic
ally evaded the demands of the United
States and the authorities have come
to the conclusion that it is about time
for the United States \o look into the
matter.
It is expected that the presence of
the Montgomery will have a salutary
effect and bring them to their sen
ses. In any event it is the intention
of the authorities to secure the
punishment of the murderer unless
lie shall have escaped from Hondu
ras’ jurisdiction. An indemnity for
the murder of the American has al
ready been demanded and Minister
Young will press this claim when the
Montgomery reaches Trujillo.
MISSOURI SOLONS BITTER.
Speaker I’uasell and Bothwell Turn a
Joke Into Wrathfulneas.
Jefferson City, Mo., March 4.—Mr.
Rothwell of Randolph precipitated a
sensational debate in the house just
before noon to-day by introducing a
bill to appropriate $50,000 to erect a
silver bust of Chauncey I. Fillev in
Eph Houston’s "eagle nest” and pro
viding that Joseph T. Tatum, Fred
W. Mott and Abe Mlupsky should con
stitute a committee to place the bust
in place. The statue was to repre
sent Filley in the act of extending
forgiveness to John H. Bothwell,
Major Bittinger and Bud Hastain for
eliminating him from the campaign
of 1893.
The bill was offered as a jolte, but
Speaker Russell rose in wrath to de
fend Filley and declared, before the
bill had been read, that the member
from Randolph had violated the priv
ileges of the floor and insulted the
members of the house.
As soon as Mr. Russell closed Mr.
Bothwell said that it was not the
first time the speaker has taken the
floor to pour out the vials of his vic
ious wrath, but it was the first time
he had slunk like a dishonest cur to
his kennel; refusing to let members
interrogate him.
The Filleyites were red hot. and
following the lead of Russell made
every effort to prevent any comment
on the bill. Eventually 300 copies of
bill were ordered printed.
ISMAIL PASHA DEAD.
Egypt's Deposed Kheillvo I'auet Away
In Constantinople.
Cairo. March 4.—Ismail Pasha died
in Constontinople to-day.
Ismail was the son of Viceroy Ibra
him Pasha by a Circassian woman,
-«4 1__1_nt loon
and succeeded to Egyptian power in
January, 1803. He was an ambitious
ruler and it was his aim to make
Egypt a powerful kingdom and to
secure it in perpetuity for his own
descendants.
In June, 1370, he was requested to
resign by his suzerain, the sultan of
of Turkey, acting under the pressure
of England. Having once interfered,
France and England were forced to
continue their policy of interference
and the end came in the Anglo-Egyp
tian war. The khedive was deposed
and went into exile. During these
fifteen intervening years he lived in
London, Paris, Naples and Constants
nople.
lie almost rebuilt Cairo during his
reign and did much for Alexandria
aside from the breakwater. During
the civil war in America he acquired
considerable wealth by cultivating
cotton, but his money went with the
rest, and Egypt still feels the burden
of the indebtedness which he placed
upon her.

WARM IN THE SENATE
CHANDLER GETS AFTER MAR
TIN, HILL AND ROACH.
The Kansu Senator Makes Vigorous R»
ply. Declaring that the New Hamp
shire Senator Ought to be In the Peni
tentiary Instead of Occupying a Seat la
the United States Senate—One of thi
Appropriation Bills Passed.
A Red Hot Senate Debate.
Washington, March 2. — At the
night session of the • senate the ap
propriation bill was temporarily laid
aside to permit Mr. Chandler to make
a speech on “recent election methods
of the Democratic party.” He took
up the election of a number of Demo
cratic senators. Concerning the elec
tion of Mr. Murphy of New York, ha
did not question its legislative
security, but declared it was brought
about by gerrymander aud various
forms of electioneering larceny in
which he indicated that the then
governor and present senator from
New York was concerned. As to the
election of Martin of Kansas, Chand
ler said the senator.although a Demo
crat, had made a “close connection”
with the Populist members of the
Kansas legislature, and on bocoming
a senator had secured all the Demo
cratic patronage which the state of
Kansas had received from the na
tional administration.
The Populists of Kansas were thus
deceived. “They cheated to get him
in,” said Mr. Chandler, “and the re
sults have been what might have
been expected.” As to the seat now
occupied by Mr. Roach of North Da
kota Mr. Chandler declared it would
be filled by a Republican if there had
not been the basest manipulation, in
which the speaker of the house and
his confederates had participated. Mr.
Chandler denounced the “traitors”
of that transaction. He then took up
the investigation which the senate
began as to the private record of Mr.
Roach and read from the Record to
show how action on the investigation
had been avoided, “and so,” said he,
“the former cashier of the Citizens’
National bank of Washington contin
ues to occupy a seat as a Democratic
senator." Mr. Roach sat at his desk
throughout this arraignment.
Mr. Chandler then revfewed in de
tail the proceedings of the Kansas
iugisiuture m in i: uiecuon or Mr.
Martin and declared it made as vicions
a record as was ever presented in
electioneering fraud. “He is still
here,” said Mr. Chandler, “and will
remain until next Monday, when the
Democratic congress comes to an ig
nominous end.”
Mr. Hill said he “hated hypo
crites.” He referred to the “fraud by
which the great Samuel Tilden had
been kept from the presidential
chair.” Then, turning to Mr.
Chandler, he added: “We all remem
ber the course of our friend Chandler
at that time in going to Florida and
stealing that state from the Demo
cracy.” There was a tumultuous
demonstration in the gallery at this
point, lasting half a minute. The
vice president rapped for order and
then warned the spectators the gal
leries would bo cleared if the demon
stration was repeated.
Mr. Martin replied to Mr. Chan
dler's reference to him, saying no
honest man ever questioned his right
to his seat. No man had ever charged
that he bought his seat in the senate,
but could the senator from New
Hampshire say as much. If one-half
was true that was charged against
the senator from New Hampshire, in
stead of being in the United States
senate he should be in the peniten
tiary. Instead of the eagles that had
represented the great state of New
Hampshire “a buzzard had taken
their place.”
Mr. Frye at once arose and called
Mr. Martin to order. Mr. Martin re
mained standing, whereupon Mr.
Manderson demanded the rule be en
forced that the senator take his
seat. Mr. Martin took his seat. Mr.
Frye withdrew his motion calling the
senator to order. Mr. Hoar at once
renewed the call, saying he would
withdraw it if Mr. Martin would
Withdraw his objectionable words.
“I can not withdraw them,” said
Mr. Martin. “I meant no offense to
the senate, but it is only strong lan
guage that will meet some situations. ”
There was further discussion as to
whether Mr. Martin should be al
lowed to proceed. He finally went
on, withdrawing the objectionable
words, although he said be could
never change his mind as to their ap
plication to the senator from New
Hampshire. This closed the exciting
event for a time and the senate re
turned to the appropriation bill.
But Mr. Chandler again took the
floor atll:30 o'clock lor another phase
of the subject, lie said he would
pass over the vituperation used
against him. He referred to the
action of Mr. Hill in gratifying his
spite against the president of the
United States in canvassing the sen
ate to defeat Mr. Cleveland’s nomina
tion to the United States supreme
court. Mr. Chandler spoke of Mr.
Hill’s recent dinner at the White
house and contrasted “his old hostil
ity with his recent subserviency,”
which had finally been repaid by one
postmaster.
Mr. Hill replied that he could not
be purchased by a dinner at the
White house and had not recom
mended the postmaster at Elmira re
ferred to. Mr. Hill closed at mid
night. At 12:23 this morning the leg
islative, executive and judicial appro
priation bill was passed and the sen
ate adjourned.
The resolution authorizing payment
to Joseph W. Ady of 83.000 to cover
the expenses incurred in contesting
the seat of Senator Martin of Kansas,
and to the latter 81,000, was passed.
A Nebraska Iturderer Hanged.
Platts mouth, Neb., March 3. —Harry
Hill, the murderer of Matthew Ake

formerly a Washington policeman,
disgraced because of drink, killed
Akeson while trying to rob him.

GORMAN ON FINANCE.
Ttia Maryland donator Taka* I**n* With
Secretary CarlUlo.
Wasiunotox, Fab. 88.— After work
ing until midnight last night! the sen
•tora were alow in Arriving to*dajr
end only e dozen were on hand
whan conaiderutlon of tIto sundry
civil bill was resumed and an
amendment granting to Henry Tal
bot, cleric of the house ways and
means committee, 88,000 for assisting
the senate finance committee in Its
tariff work last fall was agrood to.
This cleared the way for tho con
test over tho financial amendment
providing for an Issue of 8100,000,000
of certificates of indebtedness, of
small denominations, to boar 3 per
ceut Interest, in order to meet de
ficiencies in the treasury.
After squabbling for some time
over a point of order Mr. Gorman un
folded an elaborate table of figures.
He said the answers mado by the sec
retary of the treasury In response
to inquiries by the senate on
their face showed little cause
for fear of a deficiency, but
an analysis of these figures
presented a far less hopeful aspects
"I think I will bo able to demon
strate," ha went on, "that the secre
tary of the treasury will have a de
ficiency of 830,000,000 for the calendar
year and 800,000,000 for the flseal
year,"
Mr. Gorman said the secretary's reply
to the sonata stated that there was
8100.000. 000 on hand available to pay
ordinary expenditures. Ho (Gorman)
knew that this was a mistake, aud
he went to those who had
made the estimate and said:
"Your figures are misleading. You
have made a mistake.” lie called
their attention to the fact that they
had omitted the cheeks, drafts, etc.,
outstanding. These hud been In
cluded in the monthly report. It dis
closed that there was actually 807.
000,000 available. Here was a
mistake of about 830,000,000 to
begin with, lie itemized tho
sums duo for rivers and
harbors, public buildings, etc., and
took up the secretary’s estimates nf
receipts he hoped to have. The sec
retary estimated his total expendi
tures at 8330,000,000. Alroady
the house had appropriated
8374.000. 000 for the year. To this tho
senate would add 830,000,000 and tho
total would bo 8300,000,000, while he
would stake his reputation that it
wchild reach 8400,000,000.
"xno iruui is," saia Mr. uorman,
“that they made a mistake about a
year ago in making up their balances
of 900,000,000, ami they have been
tr.viug to adhere to it ever since."
Taking up the question of gold pay
ments, Mr. Gorman said that they all
knew perfectly well that the govern
ment would always maintain its gold
payments, lie was much diverted
and not u little irritated at the con
stant interruptions which led him
away from his line of argument.
Mr. George suggested that the
secretary of the treasury ought to
show what he wanted without having
a guardian.
“I am not the guardian of the sec
retary," said Mr. Gorman, "but I am
sent here by n state which has never
repudiated a debt and they would
not keep mo here if I failed to stand
for the honor and integrity of the
credit of our government.”
At 3:.r>0 o’clock Mr. Gorman arose
and withdrew his 9100,000,000 certifi
cate amendment.
The Mills amendment declaring
that no more bonds should be issued
was declared out of order without a
vote.
Mistaken for a Burglar.
St. Joskph, Mo., Feb. 28.—Mrs.
ftobert Craig was awakened early
this morning and Bcreamod at the
top of her voice, telling her hus
band there were burglars in the
house. Craig caught sight of a human
figure in the hallway and fired. The
person proved to be Mrs. Craig's sis
ter, and is dangerously wounded.

AN ALPENA MIRACLE.
MRS. JAS. M. TODD OP LONG RA
PIDS DI8CARDS CRUTCHES.
la an Interview with a Reporter llw
Review* Her Experience and Tell* tha
Real t'auee of the Miracle.
From Alpena, Michigan, Argun.
We have long known Mrn. Jan, M.
Todil of I^mg Rapids, Alpena County,
Mich. She hus been a end cripple.
Many of her frlrnda know the ntory of
her recovery; for the benefit of thong
who do not we publlnh It to-day.
Right yearn ago she wan taken with
nervoun prontrntlon. and In a few
month* with munculnr and Inflamma
tory rheumatlnm. It affected her
heart, then her head. Her feet be*
came no nwollen nhe could wear noth- ..
Ing on them; her hunda were drawn all
out of ahupe. Her eyen were nwollen
nhut more than half the time, her knee
jolntn terribly nwollen and for eighteen
montha nhe had to be held up to be
dressed. One limb became entirely
helpleaa, and the nkln wan no dry and
cracked that It would bleed. During
these eight yearn nho had been treated
by a score of physicians, and has also
spent much time at Ann Arbor under
bent medical advice. All said her
trouble was brought on by hard work
and that medicine would not cure, and
that rent wan the only thing which
would ease her. After going to live
with her daughter she became entirely
helpleaa and could not even raise her
arms to cover herself at night. The
Interesting part of the story follows In
her own words;
"I wan urged to try Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People and at last
did so. In three days after I com
menced taking Pink Pills I could sit up
and dress mynelf, and after using them
six weeks I went home anil commenced
working. I continued taking the pills,
until now I begin to forget my crutches
and cun go up und down steps without
aid. I am truly a living wonder.
“Now, If I can say anything to In
duce thane who have suffered an I have
to try Pink Pills, I shall gladly do so.
If other like sufferers will try Pink
Pills according to directions, they will
have reason to thank God for creating
men who are able to conquer that ter
rible disease, rheumatism. I have In
my own neighborhood recommended
Pink Pills for the after effects of la
grippe, and weak women with Impure
blood, and with good results."
Mrs. Todd Ib very Btrong In her faith
In the curative powers of pink Pills,
and says they have brought a poor,
helpless cripple back to do her own
milking, churning, washing, sewing,
knitting and In fact about all of her
household duties.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all
the dements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They arc for sale by
all druggists, or may be had by mail
from Dr. Williams' Medicine Company,
Schenectady, N. Y., for 60o per box; or
six boxes for $11.50.

Announcing the Engagement.
An engagement should be announced

writes Mrs. liurton Harrison in the
March I,adieu’ Home Journal. This la
done either verbally or informally to
friends, or by note to thoso whom it is
desired shall reccivo early informa
tion. The man may at the same time
writo to those of his friends whom h*
desires to have share In his happiness
and whom tho girl's family could not
so woll reuch. Churlish, Indeed, would
the spirit to withhold interest in
a new engagement, and the telling of
it by the principals ulinost alwuysin
spires a kindly feeling for them in t
those told. I,overs have, perhaps, the
best-founded claim to thinking them
selves of first interest to a community .
of any class of people, and are quite
entitled to assume ull the honors and
privileges of the situation.

Harper's liazar for February 23d
contains a piquant little play, or rather
a dialogue, called “The Oral Method,”
in which a learned professor, who is
absent-minded and deficient in small
talk, receives some valuable instruction
in the art of conversation. The l’nris
letter, which tarried on the Gascogno
last week, presents a double budget of
the latest political and literary gossip,
together with such fashions'as the off
season affords. A front-page drawing
by Sandcz from a Worth model of a
demi-season gown is significant as an
indication of what we may enpect
when spring fashions are more fully
decided than they are at present.

Woman Is the Power.

woman's encouragement, a woman’s
love behind them. She is the power of

events will tend—not ns a leader her- ,yi‘:
