Resolved, that whale we hall with ielfatfht
iind accept in good faith the compromise by
which harmony was -restored to the d--
tri.. racy of Texas, we condemn all efforls

t'NION AND CENTRAL PACIFIC.
Washington, July 21.—Representative Reil-
ly of the committee on Pacific railways
made a report to the public to-day on the
bill to adjust the debts of the Central and
Union Pacific railways. A review of the
legislation affecting the roads from 18G2 is
iven in the report. The purpose of the
committee, it is explained, is not only to
levlse some plan that will insure payment
of the government claims, but that it w'.ll
final In its operations and dlswolve the
complications that have heretofore ex-
isted.
The bill is said to differ from the former
bills contemplating the extension or funding
of the entire indebtedness, the first mort-
gage a.s well lis the government debt, and
tpply the amount in the sinking fund to
the credit of the companies on their in-
debtedness to the government. It is point-
ed out that both the first mortgage bonds
and the government bonds bearing G per
cent interest, wh'.ch the committee believes
it is and will be impossible for the com-
panies to meet in the future as it has been
at the present.
Interest on the first mortgage bonds has
been paid regularly, but the principal of the
government bonds has been more than
doublet! by the accumulation of interest in
excess of all reimbursement and no one ex-
pects the companies to pay their debts to
the government at maturity. Annual in-
terest on the ilrst mortgage bonds has
amounted to over $1,000,000 a year for the
I'nion Pacific and $1,500,000 for the Central
Pacitic, and it seemed to the committee
that if the first mortgage wa« to be con-»
tinned with priority of lien it would be
futile to attempt an adjustment on that
basis. .net
Accordingly the committee directed their
efforts to a plan looking to the extinguish-
ment of the lien, and by the bill the
amount in the sinking fund is applied to
that purpose upon condition! that the com-
panies shall provide in a manner satisfac-
tory to the secretary of the treasury for
the payment of the remainder of the bonds
and -the discharge, of the first mortgage,
giving the government a first instead of a
second lien on the property, a disposition
of the sinking! fund considered more ad-
vantageous .tof- the t'nited States than its
application its a cred'lt on its debt.
The committee considers the arrangement
advantage-Jus to both -parties; that it is
with In .their ability to comiply with the pro-
v-i.sio.iaIs of the bill, and think the companies
will- comply if they are disposed toward
a settlement. The government must con-
tinue to pay Interest on the subsidy bonds
until their maturity, and the bill provides
for the method of ascertaining the amount
of the debt due to the government, on the
1st of January, 1895, and that bonds of the
companies to run fifty years shall be given
for the amount, bearing 3 per cent interest,
payable .semi-annually, at semi-annual and
gradually increasing -payments on the prin-
cipal.
The bill contemplates -settling the extent
of the government lien and includes iin the
mortgage the valuable terminal properties
of the lTnion Pacific at Omaha, Kansas
City an i other points, estimated to be
worth $15,000,000. There are other provisions
covering the payment of dividends by the
companies so long a.3 -the United States
shall own any bonds for payment for trans-
portation services and preserving other
nights of the Unified States.
In case of default in respect to any obli-
gation for which any lien exists in favor
of the United' States upon any property of
any other companies, or in case of any
proceedings by holders of any other lien,
the attorney general is authorized to en-
force the ciaim and foreclose any lien of
the Pnited States by s. le or otherwise;
and if by sale, the property shall be sold
to the highest bidder for a stum not less
than the amount off the debt due to the
United States and all Interest thereto, to
the date of confirmation of the sale, then
the attorney general is authorized to bid
such amount in order to protect the gov-
ernment.
Purchasers and their associates shall be
inv- 'd with all the property and fran-
chise- upon confirmation of the sale by
the court and compliance therewith, upon
filing a certificate accepting the provisions
of the act giving the name under which
the e. mpany is to be organized, naming
fifteen directors, and making the law re-
latiiu; to the governim-ent's directors ap-
p.iei.ble to the reorganized company. The
e an -»f appeals of the District of Colum-
bia is given jurisdiction over legal proceed-
ings.
I'aiess some adjustment is effected, Mr.
R-iily's report concludes, foreclosure seems
inevitable, and thai might involve the
nee- ••»ity of the- government being coim-
piii -I, in order to protect itself, to pay off
the rust mortgage, thereby involving an
a 1 litional outlay of public money on the
roads of over $40,000,000 above the sinking
fund, which would make the aggregate
of ilie government's investment about $170,-
000,mi.

UNCONDITIONS , SURREN D ER.
Sacramento, Cal., July 21.—The American
railway union execute committee has de-
clared the strike off inconditionally. They
cent a sfhort notice o that effect to Su
perintendent Fillmor-. The military will
probably remain in the city two or three
days yet to look afM' those who have been
intimidating workmen. The railway com-
pany claims to have enough men already
to conduct its bUsness and many of the
strikers will not et back.
Just what effec: th'i-s unconditional sur-
render will have on other parts of the state
is not known, as t'he news has not yet
been received by other -lodges of the Ameri-
can railway union. In Oakland there is
every prospect that the strikers will weaken
now that their stronghold at Sacramento
is gone. The action of the strikers was
brought about by a committee of c-ltizens,
who showed them that their cause was now
hopeless and persuaded the men to try to
get back while here was yet a chance.
Last Thursday Superintendent Fillmore
met a committee of strikers and promised
that if the strike was declared off uncondi-
tionally all the strikers except those who
had taken an nct'ive part in the destruc-
tion of property stopping of trains and in-
timidat'lon of nijn, would be put to work.
It is believed Filmore will keep this prom-
ise, for although the railway company pro-
fesses to be able to run the road without
the aid of t'he strikers, the places of the old
men are in many cases filled by green
-hands, and the ioad is not operated as sat-
isfactorily as before the strike.
To-night the railway officials say the
trains are running. The evening overland
train via Ogden was 'the last to be report-
ed. The train was sent out on schedule
time to-night. A military guard still es-
corts express trains. The soldiers have
been instructed not to hesitate at shooting
in the event of attempted interference with
the trains. A striker who attempted to
cut an air brake in West Berkley to-day is
reported to have been shot and badly
wounded.
ORlDHItEfD TO APPEAR.

of Oakland lodge, American railway union,

ADJUDGED NOT GUILTY.
Los Angeles, Cal., July 21.—The long ex-
pected decision in Conductor Heart's case
was handed down by Judge Ross in the
federal court to-day. Heart was adjudged
not guilty of on tempt of court in diso-
beying the "injunction. Judge Ross found
the matter of resignation after 'he was
ordered to go to work was immaterial,
and that the refusal -to go to work after
being asked to .ake a -train out was part
and parcel of one transaction, and chat
Heart was not acting in bad faith when he
put off h-is un-if-rm and went down to the
depot to take oit a train. He said that the
opprobrium tha. comes from being called
a scab was what deterred Heart from tak-
ing o-ut a train.
STRIKim FC'U'ND GUILTY.
Santa Fe, X. m., July 21.—The fourteen

t'he Santa Fe road in discharging striking
employes and i; fili ng their place* w-ith

ployes of the rood in New Mexico who may
hereafter fail t, perform their usual du-
ties shall be deemed- as having voluntarily
quit the oompaiy's service, and that new
men employed h the places of these men
shall be kept in the service as long as
they are compe ;nt and perform their du-
ties satisfactory, and that persons who
have been gulltv of the contempt of the

STORM.
Honolulu, July 13.—The provisional gov-
ernment Is no more and the republic of
Hawaii holds the reins of power.
But it Is only a change of name; the
same people are in power, and the avowed
purpose of the government is the same—
to obtain annexation with t'he United
States.
The new constitution, whloh was fin-
ished on 3d, was promulgated on the 4th
of July from the front steps of the for-
mer palace. A large crowd was present,
and when President Dole appeared he was
greeted by a mighty cheer, while sur-
rounded by his cabinet, the military and
the members of t'he late constitutional
government, he read the proclamation of
the new republic, as follows:
"I, Sanford B. Dole, president of the
prov'alonal government of the Hawaiian
Islands, by virtue of the charge given me
by the executive and advisory councils of
the provisional government, and by an act
dated July 4, 1894, proclaim the republic of
Hawaii as tne sovereign authority over
and throughout the Hawaiian islands from
this time fort'h.
"And I declare the constitution framed
and adopted by the constitutional conven-
tion of 1894 to be the constitution and the
supreme law of the republic of Hawaii,
and by virtue of this constitution 1 now
assume the office and authority of presi-
dent thereof.
"Long live the republic,"
J. W. Katu, one of the leading native an-
nexationists, next read the proclamation In
the Hawaiian language. Both were greeted
with cheers, and the ceremony was over.
There was no military display whatever.
The men on the Philadelphia were not
landed, t'he government thinking it best not
to give Its enemies a chance to say, as
they did before, that the change was made
while United States troops were present.
Not the slightest demonstration was at-
tempted by t'he supporters of the ex-queen.
A few evenings before t'he 4th th* royal-
ists held a mass meeting when
they adopted resolutions protest-
ing against tine forming of the republic,
claiming that President Cleveland had not
yet answered the petition sent by Lllluoka-
lanl to be restored to the throne. Copies
of this resolution were sent to the repre-
sentatives of the foreign governments .with
the request that they should not recognize
t'he republic. It had no effect in that way,
however, with the exception of (Minister
Woodhouse, the 'English minister-resident,
who simply stated that he would inform
his government of the change.
On the evening of the Fourth the annex-
ationists held a big mass meeting- for the
purpose of ratifying the new constitution.
It was a most enthusiastic meeting. The
Fourth was celebrated In the true Ameri-
can style, the double holiday making it pe-
culiarly a day of jollification for Ameri-
cans. Captain of the Marines Cochrane of
the Philadelphia delivered the oration. He
showed himself 'to be an annexationist,
opening his speech by saying that he hoped
.soon to be able to call those present fel-
low Citizens. Throughout his oration he
lauded the provisional government and its
supporters. Admiral Walker and his staff
were present and the admiral evidently
indorsed the speech of Captain Cochrane.
He was also at he executive building at the
time of the promulgation, though not offi-
cially. The republic having been launched,
Minister Thurston will probably return to
Washington soon. He was not present on
the Fourth, having gone to the volcano.
One of the royalist papers, the Holumua,
which 'has been a rabid supporter of t'he ex-
queen, has changed Its policy and Is advis-
ing all royalists to take the oath of alle-
giance to the republic, and acknowledges
that the cause of t'he ex-queen is dead.
A royalist commission, consisting of
Samuel Parker, H. M. A. Wldeman and
Jolhn A. Cummins, leave for Washington
on the Rio Janeiro 'this afternoon. I't is
their intention to go to Washington at
once and try to obtain an Interview with
the president with the idea of forcing him
to give them an answer as to what he in-
tends to do on t'he Hawaiian matter. Their
expenses have been paid 'by prominent roy
al'ists here, and they carry a secretary with
them. Parker and Cummins are half
Hawailans, but Wideman Is German. The
royalists here have great hopes of t'he com-
mission's success.

THE FIRST STEAMSHIP.
The placing of brass tablets In the par-
liament house of Ottawa to commemorate
the departure of the Royal William from
the port of Quebec In 1833, the first vessel
to cross the ocean wholly by steam, has
stirred up some Interesting reminiscences,"
said Captain Edward Hoague, an old Eng-
lish sea captain. "It turns out that the
first steamer to cross the Atlantic was an
American vessel, called the Savannah. She
was a steamship and used both sails and
steam, and was 'built by Crocker & Flckltt,
at Corlaer's Hook, in New York city. The
present belief is that she was built by a
party of capitalists, who Intended to sell
her to some foreign monarch. She was
commanded by Captain Moses Rogers, ana
was a ship-rigged vessel of nearly 400 tons.
She had a horizontal engine, whloh was
placed between her decks, and 'her boilers
were In the lower hold. It Is generally
admitted that the Savannah sailed from
New York in 1S19, going to Savannah, her
namesake, in seven days, four of which
she used steam. There she was chartered
by the city corporation to go to Charles-
ton to take President Monroe, Who was
traveling through the states on a pleasure
excursion. He failed to accept t'he invita-
tion and the boat returned to Savannah.
After remaining at this port for some days
and taking out several parties of curiosity
as well as pleasure Heekers, the Savannah
sailed for Liverpool, reaching it after a voy-
age of eighteen days, seven of which were
made under steam. The arrival of the
■strange looking vessel with clouds of
smoke ascending from her decks and ob-
scuring her rlgglni' caused quite a commo-
tion when she entered St. George's Chan-
nel, off the city of Cork, and the com-
mander of the British man-of-war lying
in the harbor thought she was a vessel in
distress, and sent two cutters to board
her. Everything he found aVl right, how-
ever, and t'he Savannah was allowed to
proceed on her way, and thousands of peo-
ple greeted her as she steamed up the
Mersey to Liverpool with the American
flag flying a't her head. The Savannah then
made a trip to Copenhagen, Constadt and
St. Petersburg, and then returned to this
country, where She was relieved of her
steam apparatus and for many years ran
as a packet between New York and Sa-
vannah, finally going ashore and breaking
up on Long Island. The Savannah was,
of course, a side-wheeler, and it was impos-
sible to carry a sufficient supply of fuel
in her to keep up steam on a long voyage,
so her wheels were removed during good
■sailing weather and canvas substituted.
The king of Sweden wanted to buy the
boat when it was'abroad, but the deal went
through. Now, those are the real facts
about the first steamship that ever crossed
■the Atlantic ocean."
THE OIWIBBR COLUMBIA.
The United States cruiser Columbia, sister
ship to the Minneapolis, whose recent
splendid record of 23.5 knots astonished
naval experts, left League Island on her
way to Join the North Atlantic squadron.
Prior to her departure she lay just oppo-
site the receiving ship Richmond, and 'the
greatest activity was noticeable about the
decks of the cruiser as preparations where
being made to get under way. The ma-
rines, in their bright and showy uniforms,
were mustered on the after-deck. Amid
an absolute silence the 'big white cruiser
steamed slowly away, but those who had
gathered to see her departure watched her
■until her great white sides entirely disap-
peared. No change has been made Iin the
personnel of t'he officers of the vessel, al-
though many of those wh# held good
berths would not have been greatly sur-
prised If there had been. This feeling was
caused by the fact that the Columbia had
struck a submerged obstruction whiie com-
ing up the river and damaged a number of
her plates and ribs. The injury necessi-
tated placing her on the dry dock and
giving her a thorough overhauling. This
was done by the Cramps, her builders, and
while the work cost the government about
$10,000, the vessel Is as good as ever, if not
better, the ribs which were injured having
been greatly strengthened. Captain G. W.
Sumner is in command of the Columbia,
with Lieutenant Commander Aliibone as
executive officer. She left with a crew of
450 men. Just before starting away Cap-
tain Sumner said he was hopeful of meeting
the 'Minneapolis, which would enable Mm
to salute that record-breaker. The Colum-
bia will touch at New York, where she
will take aboard Admiral Stanton, after
Which she will proceed up the New Eng-
land coast.
