committee by an adverse vote of 9 to 7. and , !
Instead ! of I resoluton for Impeachment
which ! r. naley hal prepared to report to
tim house , one will be presented denouncing
the leo system , which In the opinion of mem-
cbrs has made the proceeding possible.
JUdge lUcks gave I personal explanation to
the committee of the accounts In the Ird-
sell cases , which ho had handlCl 1 clerk of
the court and which furnIshed ground for
the Investigation , and testmony was given
ngalnst hIm by . Marlin \V. Sanders , who had
been his deputy clerk and succeee1 ! to the
clerkship whLi Judge Hlces was promoted
to the bench. Today's review of the case ,
which was of a biter and acrImonious char-
actor , changed the opinion of no member of
the committee and the charges were Ignored ,
lS It was eXllctecl they would be , when all
tim members could be brought together for

t The judge was present wih his attor-
fey , Virgil P. Kline. The Central
Labor union of Cleveland was represented -
sente1 ! by two attorneys , Arnold G. Green
and General Edward S. ! eyer. But one
member of the committee , Mr. Terry of Arkansas -

Chairman Culberson announced to Judge
nclm that the commItee had InvIted him
to appear If he Baw proper , although he was
not summoned and there was nothing obliga-
tory In his appearance , and asked him If he
desired to make any statement.
The JUdge said that the brief slbmited by
his lawyers covered the ground fairly and
fully , but that ho would be glad to answer
any questions.
HCKS MAImS A STATIMFNT.
At the suggestion of the chairman he made
I statement. The cases In which improper
receIpt of funds were charged he said , were
anomalous In character or ho would not have
undertaken to complete the records. He en-
tere1 ! at length Into various sums and figures ,
Involved , and said : 'I claim that I had a '
right to complete the records as 1 did. I '
claim that I accounted satisfactorily to the
government for nil the moneys ; that my
succcssor as clerl lost nothIng by the trans-
acton unll that I acted strictly according to

clerks of several courts to show thpt the
practice of the cleric to charge himself with
lao completed records In advance of their
completion ! was a universal one. The
charges for the work had been made eighteen
months before he was appointed JUdge and
before he had any idea that ho would be
appointed.
; Chairman Culberson Inquired why he had
hot returned the accounts to tim attorney
general's ofeo In one report Instead 01 [
scattering them through several years , and I
' . the jUdge replied : "It was not my duty to
complete all rccords. but It '
al I was my option or
prlvliego . so I charged myself with these In
which the parties were solvent. Had I I L
charged those In whIch the parties were In-
solvent and ' I we ] know that some of them
were , I would haye become I guarantor for
the government for the cost of the work. I I

tered and before the record was finished.
STRUCK A GEN llAL AVERAGE.
To the question 'of the rIght to estmate
the work wIthout knowing the exact amount
. to be done , the judge roped that the
' general average was about correct as In
Imo cases the work slightly exceeded the
estimates awl In other foil below.

'M to complete cass which ho had not reportl

"Suppo the clerk should die , " asked Mr '

11.r I'le's resolution , which Is ont
expressing generally the disapproval or the
smato : In the acton of the administraton by
withdrawing war ships Cram Hawaii. ! r.
Gray , democrat of Delaware again took the
f leer to further answer , he said the Imsy
aUacks made In the senate against the ad-
m inistratIon. Tire senator referred to the
6tatement by Senator Hawley made yesterday
as to tire president's seeing tire royalist dele
g allen which visited Washington last August.
Mr. Gray reiterated that the president had
never seen these delegates , beIng sick al the
t ini a .
tme.
"Are you prepared to MY that they never
saw the secretary of state ? " asked Mr. I rye.
CONFERRED WITH CONSPIRATORS .
Mr. Gray saId ho had no information on
that point. Mr Hawley rose to reply hold-
Ing i In his hand I newspaper slip contaIning
President Cleveland's authorizer statement
of the facts concerning the royalist dele-
gates , Mr. Hawley said ho had not Intended
to maIntaIn that I personal interview be-
tween the president and the royalists had
occurred , He was reliably informed that
there had been no personal meelng , but
contInued to read from tire president's Stato-
menl .o show that the royalst delegates
had seen Secretary Gresham. I should be
kept In mInd that these delegates were the
representtves of those conspiring to re-
store I deposed queen. They were In WashIngton -
Ington I either as conspirators against the
existing government of HawaI , or else they
were hero on an honest mIssion. I It was
WIS
honest they ought to have been referred to
the Hawaiian minister I they were con-
aplrtors they should not have been seen
by Gresham. . Mr. Hawley read from the
letter of the royalist delegates to limo sec-
rotary of state : "We the undersigned commissIoners -
missIoners , sent by the depose queen , re-
quest an interview with the president "
"Just thInk of tire audacity , " saId Mr.
lr.
Hawley. "ThInk of thIs request to our secretary -
retary of state . after we had formally recog-
nizd the government of hawaii . "
The senator said ho
desIred to make no
personal arraignment of the , president , but he
( Hawley ) believed the president's whole
course on Hawaii had been wrong
Mr. Gray again answered limo criticisms
upon the president ITo sid these attacks
were so constant the animus so evident , that
Is was perhaps useless to controvert them.
Some people seemed to attack the president
whatever the subject be. J he sat down he
was too long ; I he stood up ho was too short
These critics were bound to had fault . The
prealdent's letter to tire royalist delegates was
purely unofcial ; It was a part of tire course
by which tire president , with a steady head
ant strong hand was endeavoring to conduct
public business. The senator declared this
agitation and this talk of keeping warshIps
at Honolulu was kept up largely by tire
"schemers for annexaton , " who thought it
would helll theIr cause. 1
BnOUGIT IN SAMOA.
The Samoan question was unexpectedly interjected -
terJecte Into the debate at this point. Mr.
Gray referred to the fact that tire United
States was now bound by international agree-
lent to : , cep a barbarous king In power agree In
Smmnnoa I would not do to declaim against
a barbarous queen when wo were at ( be same
king.Mr. tmo protecting and maintaining such a
Mr. George declared tire Hawaiian govern-
ment was republican only In Loran It was
I government of force I had been estb-
haired by force arid was 10W , maintained by
force.
Mr. Lodge presented a new phase of the
subJect by sUbmllng a long list of tire Islands -
lands In the Pacific which Great Briain hall
gradualy absorb d. In pursuance of a set-
tied \olcy England was taking every fet
of terrItory she could lay hands on They
were now tryIng to get Necker labor of tire
hawaiian group This was part of the lint-
laIr policy of aggression This Drlsh Drl-
luenco was back of the royalist element In
hawaii . The heIr to tire throne was Princess
Kaulanl , daughter of an Englishman , and now
being educated In England Her guardian ,
Thcphlus ) Davis , was an Eliglsh synipa-
thlzer , and was to some extent identified
with the recent uprisIng of time royalists .
"Tho arms used In this uprIsing were bught
by an gnglshmsn , " declared Mc . Lodge
"They were shipped In a Drltsh ship from ( a
Canadian Ilort. The InsurrectonIsts were
largely Englishmen . When the Alameda left
hawaii fifteen Canadians were under arrest
and the Drltsh minister was Interceding In
their hreiraif. " This said Mr. l.dge , made
out the case that , British
thlt Britsh influence was be
hind the royalist element In Hawaii.
The senator proceeded to criticise
the
proceeed crltels ac-
ton of the administration In taking shIps
from Honolulu and then conferring withi the
wih
royalist delegates who came to Washington.
Mr. Lodge thought It a pcular coincident
that warships were wlhdrawn In July at the
tmo when the royalists arrIve Irene The
present administraton was openly and avow-
e\ly opposed to tire existing government of
hawaii . The speeches of senators In derenso I
of the adminIstraton were In effect speeches
In support of tire royalsl element of Hawaii .
But It was time for action by HawaI. . I
was no longer a queston of the new or the
old government of hawaii . but a queston of
maintaining American interests In Hawaii .
The senate had heretofore passed a resolution
slatng any foreign occupancy of Hawaii
would not be tolerate by the United States .
This was a threat L the rest of the world
I created I responsibility on tire part of the
United States It sbould Impel us to uphold - ,
hold the existing government , because Is represented -
resented American interest al against for-
eign 6entlnent. Me Lodge closed wIth an
Impasioned protet against puling down the
American fag when 1 had once been raised .
Mn Kyle gave fIgures from the latest Ha-
waiiair year book showing the .
walal many mu.
ml-
lions of American capital invested In hawaii.
"IIor' much ot that I held by one man-

WAShINGTON . jab , 22-Chalrman Wi-
son of the ways and means commltc today
reported to tire house , the bill to abrogate
the dlsrelmlnatng duty of one-tenth of I
cent per pound on sugar imported from cun-
tries paying I bounty on exports. The re-
port accompanyIng tire hill expresses the
opinion that be docs not believe It was the
Intenton i or desire of congress In the last
tarl act In Imposing tire additIonal duty on
all sugars from countrIes paying a bounty
tor export thereof to give I ground for complaint -
plaint of ! nations of viohation I
foro-n natons a vIolaton on
our part of long standing treaty obligations .
least l of all to abrogate such treaties. Doth
Germany and Austria , however , have pro-
tested against the discriminating duty , 101d-
t rig It to bl a violation ! of the most favored
nation clauses , which for more than sixty
years have governed the trade relations with
tire United States and Germany Insmucb
as the inspection of our met exports under
existing laws and under the regulations and
supervision of the Department of Agriculture .
, i s now so thorough and effective as to exclude -
dude all reasonable objections to theIr entrance -
trance on sanitary grounds , and as the Icing-
dom of Great Britain and Ireland , which
consume the bulk of our exported pro-
visions , raIses no sanitary objection to them ,
It Is almost certain , says the report , tha
thts unfriendly acton of GermanY Is rosily
a retaliation for our discrimination agaInst
German bt sugar. Tile committee believes
thaI when tire Irritation caused by tire alleged -
leged violation of our traditional treaty ob-
Igalons h to Genmnany or , more strictly speak-
log , to PrussIa , Is removed . It will at once
open the way for tire removal of discrimina-
tons and prohibitions against the entry or
our beef and hog products Jnto Germany.
Furthermore the example of Germany Is
having its influence wih other nations ' 'Uh
whom wo have I large and proltable tra 'r ,
and Sweden , Decmark and BelgIum have
prohIbited the Introduction of American cattle
and dressecl beef This additional duty on
foreign sugars , concludes the report , Is not
needed , oven fronl the point of vIew of pro-
tecton of At lerlean roOmers and sugar grow-
era . Tire amount of revenue It might pro-
duce Is insignificant and should not for a
moment be considered In COmlJarlson with the
threatened and resulting loss or lessening
or foreign marllets for our raisers of cattle
and hogs , while ire amount of revenue wou\l
compensate fr any merited stigma of unfaithfulness -
faithfulness on our Ilart to the treaty ob-

of one of the appropriatIon bibs to bo
acted upon by tine committee on approprIa-

simply granted authority for an issue of

lutely necessary t provIde additional money
for the government expenditures and for the
maintenance of the gold reserve , the demo-
crate can provide It by agreeIng to this
amendment wIthout weighting 1 down with
other questions . and that a majority of the
republicans will accept It In this shape , but
will nol permit It to if
