I hare from a trustworthy ( inline ! A I source
In Constantinople that the sultan has ftlrcad ;
sought an opinion from hl financial advisers
as to the posilblllty of raising a further latR
loon. The condition of the Turkish treasury
according to my Informant , Is one of al
most absolute penury. Kvcn thf soldiers I
Armenia are unpaid. The preposition ad
varced by the sultan In regard to xccurlt
for a new loan was cither a conversion o
the cuitorns loan or the cession of addltlona
revenues to the European bailiff , who 1
named by the council of the public debt
The Imperial Ottoman bank , which Is I ;
effect the financial department of the sul
tan's government , reported that there woul
bo no hope of raising money In England
owing to the feeling : excited by the outrage
In Armenia and the general belief In the In
security of Turkish rule. In this extrem
It Is possible that the tultan turned to Hus
sta In hope that her good offices might b
employed to Iniuro the success of a loan In
Franco. This might serve to explain th
fumor of the Kumo-Turklsh treaty , and It I
certain , anyway , that If thorn should be a
treaty the support of Russia In floating a
new Turkish loan will bo an essential con
dttlon of It.

Salisbury's do-nothing policy. your
ers know , there has been lately n poetic due
between Laureate Austin and William Wat

measured terms. He has just published ! n

tragedy. Hut whereas , when originally pub
llshed , one of them , entitled "Graven Eng-
loril , " anathematized 'the sultan as "Abdul
the Damned , on his Infernal throne , " the
same verso In book form was much milder In
tore. Today , however , ho published a new
sonnet In the Chronicle , emphasizing his first
epithet. U Is , I think , worth cabling In full
boll ; as Illustrating the public feeling hero
and as showing how much better a poet he is
than Lord Salisbury's laureate , The sonnet
reads :
TO THE SULTAN.

LONDON , Jan. 25. Hall Calno , the au
thor , has favored the Associated press with
ah advance copy of the report which ho will
make at the meeting of the Authors' society
Monday. In this report ho ventures the
'opinion that nothing In * the Venezuelan or
Transvaal questions can bo found more liable
to breed' serious International and colonial
disputes than the Canadian copyright ques-
tfon. Ha points out in Ills utatcincnt , the
power that Canada haa In embroil En < ; lind
In n quarrel through unfriendly legislation
toward the United States on the part of Uio
Dominion , and details at length how a com-
promlsfe may bo brought about between the
different interests. Ccmmenting on the f son
orous treatment which he received while in
America , ho continues :
"On my return Rt. Hon. Jooph Chamber
lain , secretary of state for the colonies , ex
pressed much gratification at the prospect
of an amicable adjustment of what threat
ened to become an awkward question. Tife
parliamentary council has revised the draft
of the act with great wiolom and after con
siderable research. This document has been
returned to Ottawa , where It now is In tbo
hands of the secretary of state , Hon. W. H.
Montague , who believes that the Intcrcstn
of authors should b's safeguarded. In the
meantime wo may congratulate ourselves on
having shown Canada a way to protect her
self and yet of adhering to the terms 'it tha
llcrne convention , still enabling the United
States to retain all of the I'lilistixmlul ' ad
vantages of the American copyright , at Hio
e'amo time having reached terms permitting
an expression of peace and good will toward
all of the Interested clashes of the Dominion. "
Referring to Prof , Goldwln Smith's desire
for ono copyright law for the whole umpire ,
Mr. Calno says : "That should bo our watch
word until the morning after America
abandons her manufacturing clause and jolnu
the Hern ? convention , "
In conclusion Mr. Calno siys : "If we
have calved the copyright question by con
sidering It gololy as a matter between Cinada
and America , which It Is In the main , we
have recognized at the same tlmo that It Is
only one of the dangers that lie between two
gron countries , wioso geographic situation
may bo the cause of many troubles In the
future. It la hard to conceive of any juat
cause for a war between England and the
United States , but If war over takes place It
will bobecause of friction between our great
dominion and the state olongildo U. An

LONDON , Jan. 25. It is difficult to
Imagine a more complicated and uncertain
political situation than the ono which Is now
being studied by the statesmen of Kuropo.
Hven If the reported alliance between Russia
and Turkey IB the myth It Is said to bo
north and south , cast and west , everywhere
the ctato of uncertainty as to the future
prevallx , and the general public , It would
seem , must for same time to come be con
tent with being allowed to await develop
ment ? . Rumors of alliances and counter
alliances fill the air and crowd the news
papers ; but until the shuffling of the cards
has been completed and the bands rearranged
for the new game of bluff and grab , believed
to bo arranged between the powers , It will
bo difficult to definitely dccldo who arc
partners and who are their opponents. Hut
ono thing seems to gleam out clearly from
the fog of diplomacy , and that Is , that a
rearrangement of the European entangle
ments Is being discussed , It It lo not in prog
ress or even nn accomplished fact , and there
are persons hero who Intimate that when the
deal la completed , Germany nnd not Great
Britain , will bo the "Isolated" power of
Europe. This Is said to bo borne out by the
"conoesjlons" that Great Hrltaln has made
to Franco , and may have made to Russia.
Hut of course , this Is simply ono way 01
looking at It , and It lo by no means ccrtalr
that It is the right way.
The social world is also labor
Ing under a cloud almost as dar )
as the ono overshadowing tli ;
world of politics. This la caused by tin
sudden death of Prince Henry of Batten
burg , son-in-law of Queen Victoria , while or
his way to the Island of Madeira on board th <
British crulter Hlonden. from Capo Coasl
castle , west Africa , in an effort to recovei
from an attack of African fever. The news
caused a reat shack to everybody In courl
circlcj and to society In general and has re
suited in n complete upheaval of racial fix
tures. No drawing rooms or social enter
talnmcnta of any kind will be held while
court Is In mourning , which will be for al
least six weeks.
The death of Prlnco Henry , It Is pointed
out , has shown him to bo an extremely popular -
ular man among these who knew him , and
oven thoiM who did not have that pleasure
have nothing but kind words for the soldier
who died for Great Hrltaln , even If his death
was from sickness Instead of on the field ol
battle , as he would undoubtedly have pre
ferred. His sad end , likened to
Lhat of the Prlnro Imperial of Franco ,
has recalled the old story that Princess Heat-
rice might have been wedded to the son of
ex-Empress Eugenie had ho not met his
death while fighting with the British against
the Zulus , and so there Is much rcinantlc
sympathy expressed for the w'dowed princess ,
who seems to have twlco had her heart wrung
with , sorrow as a result of British wars" In
Africa.
PRINCESS WAS PROSTRATED ,
The telegrams , received from Osborne since
the news of the death of Prince Henry was
made known there show that bath the queen
ind Princess Beatrice were terribly over
whelmed by the evil tidings from S'erra
Leone. The princess was prostrated through
out Wednesday and "did not dine with the
royal family and remained In her bedroom
until 11 o'clock Thursday morning. When
she reappeared ) It was. noticed that ) the prin
cess bore deep traces of a night spent In
weeping for the dcad/and she socmecl almost
Heartbroken when her'children were taken to
icr. Princess Beatrice spent the afternoon
with the queen , who did everything possible
to console her , although her majesty suffered
greatly herself.
Bulletins which from time to time were
posted outside the gates of Osborno house
stated that the queen and her daughter were
ntensely affected , but that 'her ' majesty's
icalth was not menaced. These announce-
nents were made necessary by the alarming
reports c'rculatcd on the Stock exchange.
The police authorities of Scotland Yaril
are congratulating themselves on th2 remark
able abanccof crime which has prevailed In
the metropolis during the past yc-ir. The
annual polloe report , which will be shortly
ssucd , shows that London In Its freedom
from the effects of lawbreakers , has made a
record which may well bo envied by the gov
ernments of all largo cities.

LONDON , Jan. 25 Rt. Hon. Joseph Cham

In speaking at Birmingham tonight , salJ
regarding the Venezuelan matter that ho
thought there had been mhupprohenalon on
both sides of the water. When Secretary
Olney's dispatch and President Cleveland's
message were delivered the feeling was re
luctantly entertained In England that the
Americans must have some hostile sentiments
which England did not share and that tha
United States wn bent on picking a quarrel
'with England. The Idea seoniod to prevail
In America that England was disposed to
Impugn the- Monroe doctrine a doctrine to
which the people of the United Statcp rightly
attached much Importance , and It was also
believed In America that Great Britain waa
disposed to deal Inj a harsh and arbitrary
manner with Venezuela , but reflection had
brought about a moro favorable understand
ing and America would regard with horror
a war with those of her own blood and kin
dred. "Cleveland , whoso acquaintance I
have the honor to possess , " mid Mr. Cham
berlain , In concluding his address , "bears
a high reputation for honorable dealing. He
Is Incapable of the wickedness of Inciting
two kindred nations to strife and blood
shed. "

now American liner , St. Paul , bound In ,
wont ashore In front' of the Grand View
houso. All of the 700 passengers were today
transferred to land. At no time were the
IwBsengers In danger. Strenuous efforts are
being made to pull the St. Paul from her
dangerous position. She Is In twenty test of

head pointing at an acute- anglo west and

the big American liner was hard aground , n
hundred yards from Ocfan Grove. There
sha lay , washed by the merciless breakers ,
looking Ilk ? a huge hotel In the surf , with
tier Iron hull , nearly an eighth of a mile In
length , embedded deeply in the sandy beach.
She lay so close to the shore that tbo people
on her decks early In the dsy could bo heard
speaking to each other very distinctly by
these on the baach. There was evldintly
no uneaslncM felt by Uio passengers or crow
or the unlucky vessel.
A llfo guard named Joe n. Wiley of life
boat station N6. 4 was the first man to dls-

While patrolling his beat he saw signals
of distress flashing from a huge black mass ,
which , through the thick fcg. he made out
o bo an ocean llnor. She was closa In to
he shore , head on , and BJomed to bo hard
and fast on the beach , and the tide , wlilch
vas then about full , was unusually high.
Wiley hastened to his lifeboat house and
aroused Captain Mulligan and'the rent of tbs

When Captain Mulligan brought this as-
tmrlng news ashore a few hundred people
had gathered , on the beach. When Mulligan

crew from llfo , saving utatlon No. 3 , Sea-
bright , hard-at work. The two crews com

P3l had over -runi so close , to shore In their
memory.
When Captain Wardwell of llfo boat station
No. 5 , which Is located at West End , or
Takanaaaeo , arrived at Lou ? Branch ho told
ft story which In Itself was almost as long
as that of the grounding of the St. Paul.
Ho said , as ho explained the reasons for
his late arirvaj : "Look here , boys , you think
this Is a bad jab.ibut there came near being
another one which might have been worea.
About the same tlmof that the alarm was
given to No. 4 I came up with my crow
and saw a big vessel right off our shore. I
knew by her size that she was a trans
atlantic steamer and as she was coming
'head en' I sent up a rod Coston light , which
algnalled her oK of her danger. Im reply
she tent up a blue Coston light , which sig
nified that ohei understood our signal. She
was delayed about half an hour and I think
she must have been aground , Judging from
the position In which uhe was lying. I knew
she was none other than the Cunarder Cam
pania. I amvery positive that If it had
not been for our signals that you would
now have two of the fastest cross-Atlantic
steamers bow on in this vicinity Instead of
ono. "
TUGS ON THE SCENE.
The breeches buoy on the St. Paul
was kept busy bringing mesrages ashore from
the captain and passengers. The contents
of only ono o ? these messages was made
public , and that , was an assurance from
Ciptaln Jamleson : It read , "The ohlp Is
fast , all safe and not making water. " The
llfo boats went out early In the forenoon ,
but no person .was allowed to go aboard
any of them .except the crews. The pas
sengers promenaded the decks and waived
handkerchiefs In reply to the encouraging
cheery which were wafted to them. Shortly
before noon a number of tugs hove In sight ,
and by 1 o'-cloek th'e St. Paul was surrounded
by a number of small craft. Including n
revenue cutter and the Merrltt & Crafton
wrecking boats.
The boats , after a few trial trips from the
St. Paul to the shore , made arrangement to
transfer the mall and passengers to some of
the craft which lay around. The malls were
the first to be attended to. After Uncle Sam's
corrospondcnco liad been safely stored away
and headed toward New York , the crowo
turned their attention to the first and second
cabin passengers. Captain Jamlejon had the
big gangway lowered. Then the first cabin
passengers began their exit from cramped
quarters. It just took twelve boatloads to
exhaust the supply of the first and seconds.
In the fourth .boatload one woman fainted
after she had niade tle ) jump from the little
plafonn to thei boat. They were nil trans
form ! to the rtdowheeler George Starr ,
which left att'SHS'o'clock for New York. The
steerage patf ngt-rs and the luggage fol
lowed. All "U1W passengers wore taken off

NOT n'ACING AT THE TIME.
NEW YORK , Jan. 25 , The cabin passen
gers of the St. Paul were landed in this city
From the tug George Starr , at the American
Una pier at 7 o'clock tonight. Those who
were Interviewed by the newspaper reporters
wera divided-In their opinions as to whether
the Campania and the St. Paul Ind been rac
ing , as at first reported.
Almost the first passenger to step ashore
from tbo tugbcat waa Hon. W , Bourke Cock-
ran , Ho said .that the Campania and the
St. Paul had not been racing , at least , the
latter had not. "But we kept ahead all the
same , " said he , "as a matter of course.
Occasionally 'on' Friday , the Campania would
take the lead , but not for long. There was
no racing at the time of the accident , for
wo bad stopped , or almost stopped , before
tha steamer grounded , It may be that we
were ( rolng at a speed of three * or four miles ,
but not more. "
WlllUm Heap of Muskegon , Mich. , thought
the vettel * wtro racing all day Friday , and
that the rnco was n good one.
The malls were brought up from the St.
Paul on the tug Louis Pulvcr. In all , there
wera 201 sacks. Soon after the cabin passen
ger * had been landed at the pier the steerage
passengers , numbering 120 , were brought up
In two tugs. They wcre > given accommo
dations for the night on board the lied Star
steamer N'ordland , which was lying at the
other slda of the dock. They will be taken
down to Kill ? Island on Sunday. None of
the passenger * had any complaint to make.
Vcrnon 11. llrown , the agent of the Cunard
line , tonight Issued the following statement ;
"Tha sccisatlonal story published In rome of
the evening paprs alleging that the Cunard
steamer , Cnmpanla , was In close proximity
to the Jersey shore and was warned oft by
lights of the life saving crew , Is absolutely
Incorrect and untrue. Captain Wllkers saw
no tiignals and ws never nearer the shore
than where he anchored , upward of two
miles from the beach.
"The Campania ran Into the fog shortly
after 8 o'clock Friday and Immdlately slowed
down , running at slow speed until 1 a. m ,
Saturday , when her engines were stopped , the
ship remaining In that position until 5:30 :
n , m. , when , there being no Indication of
the fog lifting. It anchored. It lightened up
about 9 o'clock , and the ship cot under way
and came Into port , reaching quarantine at
noon.
At 1 o'clock (20th ( ) the St. Paul was lying
In the same position and the breezs , which
was blowing due north , did not affect the
ship. The breakers are still high.

SIII5RIDAN , Wyo. , Jan. 25. ( Special Tele
gram. ) A report Just received from Dald
Mountain , Wyo. , states that some valuable
claims owned by Sheridan parties have beJn
Jumped by desperate characters. These
claims have been held and the required as-
Bcsrmcnt work done each year. An armed
party left Sheridan last nig'nt for the cold
camp , and It Is feared that trouble will re
sult. The men who Icll here are determined
to protect their rights , and now that the
camp promises rich returns they will hold
their claims at all hazards. As soon as the
snow disappears , ro that claims can bo sur
veyed and staked , a general rush Is antici
pated.
SHEHIDAN , Wyo. . Jan. 25. ( Special. )
Mention was made a few days ago In The
Omaha Dee ct rich discoveries In the Ulg
Horn mountains near Sheridan. Further
discoveries warrant the assertion that the
Dig Horn mountains will prove another Crip
ple Creek the coming season. In the last
few days now discoveries have bsen made
and mining properties have changed hands
to such an extent that parties arc leaving
for the mountain , notwltlistindlnn HIP srnw
and the difficult traveling , and holes are beIng -
Ing sunk and claims filed dally.
A party of twenty left Sheridan for Ulg
Goose Valley yesterday , with a pack outfit.
The csment which Is being operated by the
stamp mills at Dald Mountain , and which
was fully explained a few days ago In these
columns , Is proving very rich , and orders
have been placed In the east for more stamps.
This cement deposit at Bald mountain ex
tends for six miles , and , being easily mined ,
proves very profitable. There are now on
the ground some New York parties buying
claims. The most conservative business
men In Sheridan , who have never had the
mining fever , have left with pack outfits for
the mountains.
Owlug to the scarcity of water at Dald
mountain , J. D. Mcnardl of Sheridan has
located a site for a mill five miles from the
camp , and where there is an abundance of
water. His Idea Is to construct an electric
railway , power being furnished by the falls
of Porcupine creek , which are 125 feet high ,
and bring the ore from the different mlnw
to the mill. This will Involve an expendi
ture of $200,000 , and already eastern capital
ists , who have been on the ground , are so
well satisfied with the project , that they arc
ready to take hold of It and furnish the neces
sary capital required.
The cement referred to. Is not only found
at Dald Mountain , which is forty miles west
of Sheridan , but Is found throughout the.DIg
Horn mountains. The McShanes of Omaha
are putting in a stamp mill on Kelly creek ,
near Buffalo , and that there will be a rush
In the spring equil to the Cripple Creek
stampede , Is fully expected. It Is safe In
predicting that with a little money expended
In prospecting , discoveries will be made
which will place this section in line with
other rich gold producing fields.

CHICAGO. Jan. 25. The Times-Herald wll
tomorrow morning print a long statcmcn
from L. A. Thureton , ex-minister of the Hi
wailan republic at Washington. The matter
O3IUC9 from Kate Field , the special corre
spondcnt of the Times-Herald at Honolulu.
Mr. Jhurston .says In part : "After Com
mUsloner Blount's return from Honolulu
some months later , I vainly Inquired of Mr
GretOiam what the result was. He would not
even admit that any report had been made
stating that such report , If made , was a
confidential one and that It > vas 'unfair' for
me to ask any questions concerning It. I
verbally reiterated to him that , ovylng to the
long delay and uncertainty , affairs were un
settled and In a critical condition
at the islands , . and It would b ?
In the interest of order and
peace to first communicate his. intentions ,
when dccldedl upon , to the Hawaiian govern
ment , before making them public. This , he
said , would be dono. On the evening of No
vember 7 , 1S93 , being temporarily In Chicago ,
I saw In an evening paper a statement that
Mr. Greaham had recommended to the presi
dent to restore the queen nnd overthrow the
Dole government. I Immediately wired to
Mr. Hustings , Hawaiian charge d'affaires , to
see Mr. Greslmm nnd ask if it was true. Mr.
Hastings did so , and Mr. Gresham sild to
him : 'I assure you there Is no foundation
fo.- the statement. Do you think I woulJ take
so Important n step without Informing you ? '
"Mr. Hastings telegraphed me the sub
stance of the reply. That same night at
about midnight ho was Informed by a news
paper man that Mr. Greiham's letter to the
president recommending restoration , had been
given out to the press associations , and
was then going over the wires. The latter
was d.ited October IS , 1S33 , nearly a month
prior to Mr. Grcsuam's assurance that there
was no such letter.
"No copy was sent to the Hawaiian lega
tion , although I finally succetded In getting
a mutilate. ! copy , from whlsh clippings had
been made , from a representative of the As
sociated press. I Immediately called on Mr.
Gresham and stated that I had seen the
letter and asked If It was authontlc. Ho re
plied : 'Of course , you know Is Is authentic. '
I reminded him of his agreement to let me
know the subatoncs of the Blount report be
fore It was published. He rtplled : 'I did not
think It necessary. I knew you would Be ?
It In the papers. ' I then asked If It was
thci Intention of the United States govern
ment to restore , the queen by fore ? . He re
plied : 'I decline to answer that question. '
GRBSHAM WAS INDIGNANT.
"Cn January 25 , 1894 , I made a statement
to Mr. GroDlima concerning the friction that
existed In Hawaii by reason of the con-
t'liued demand by Japan that the franchise
\i3 \ granted to Japanese. He said : ' What
do your mean by coming to mo with com
plaints about Japan ? Do you expect us to
protect you from Japan ? I bhould think that
the last country In the world you would
appeal to for anslEtonco would bo the United
States. It Is most extraordinary that you
should make this statement to me. What
do you want me to do ? ' etc.
"Ho demanded w-hat President Dole meant
by sending on 'Insulting' reply to Mr. Willis
( referring to Mr. Di/le's reply to Mr. Willis'
demand that the queen'bo restored ) . 1 de
nied that the answer was or wa Intended to
bo Insulting. Mr. Gresham salil : 'I say It
wau Insulting and Mr. Dole's object was to
say something hliarp to the American minis
ter when ho had the opportunity. '
"Ha continued to talk in this strain until
It became manifest he was simply trying to
prnvoko a qnanel and I loft the room. "
Mr. Thurston glvca the details of a con-
vtrpatlon with Secretary Gresham , In which
the latter accuso'd Mr , Hatch , the Hawaiian
minister of foreign affairs , of being "a
scary fellow , " because ho said that arms for
the royalists had been pent from California.
Mr. Gresham declared the story to bo utterly
untrue. This was the day after the Insur
rection had actually occurred In the Inlands
and carter had actually been killed.
Mr. Thurston gives In detail the manner In
which he was betrayed by a representative of
the Unltod pros ! In relation to certain letters -
tors read by Mrs. Thurilon to the United
press correspondent and adds : "In II'H letter
requesting my recall Mr. Grertiam garbled
and suppressed my t-xplanatlon , xUtlng only
that I claimed that the mailers referred to
were news which * I had a right to give out.
I had committed no Intentional breach of
diplomatic et'quette. hut tendered an apology
that the matter had conio through the lega
tion , oven Inadvertently , and even though It
liad not been published. Mr. Grcsham Imme
diately requested an apology In writing , ( .lat
in K as a reason that tlilu waa a perioiml mut
ter between myfelf and tha president , and
that ho ought to know exactly what I said.
I submit that. If , In defending my country-
and my government against the continuous
attempts of Mr , Cleveland and Mr O" " ' ' "
lo ruin and overthrow them , I unwittingly
crushed the bif/um from the check u ! nif
delicate creature known as 'dlploni'illu eti
quette , ' Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Ureshain
clubbed her Into Insannllilllty and drove over
! ier with u coach and four. "

The Omaia Literary society for the deaf ,
an organization recently organized , met at
the Labor Temple last night. As Secretary
Waller puts It , they are the quietest patrons
of the Temple , and although many of the
debates became somewhat heated at times ,
persons outside of the hall would suppose
that only a well conducted Quaker njaslon
waa In progress. Last night about twonty-
five members were present and n debate on
"What Maintains a Town , Agriculture or
Commerce ? " was dlscupojd by Messrs. Hue-
fell Smith , who took the side of commerce ,
and F. Dulanoy , wiho championed that of
agriculture. The res.ilt of the contniit ended
In favor of Mr. Dulaney , who gave facto
and figures that proved too much for his
opponent. Afterward the question ot hold
ing a Ptatu convention ot the deaf and
dumb In the city was considered. Russell
Smith was elected chairman of the local com
mittee on ways and means , and ordered to re
port progress hi the scheme at the next
meeting.
An essay was then given by L. Hunt on
Ericsson , the naval Inventor , which appeared
lo bo well received by the audience , and a
declamation by Joe Porposll ollcted tumul-
tuoiiB applause. W. B. Unlvln gave an Im

elicited an encore that was felt in the adjoin
