Minister Carter Say HI. Death will Mot Cau.. Complication.. Washington, Jan. 82. Mr. Carter, Hawaiian minister said this afternoon that the death of King Kalakua will in no wise affect the peaceful condition of affairs in Hawaii. "I can see no rea-son," ho coutinuod, "why his death should cause any complication what-ever. 1'rincess Lilioukalinl was prin-cess regent during the absence of Kala-kau- She was heiress to the crown and all that is necessary is for her to . proclaim herself queen. Queen Kapio-lan- i is now queen dowager. Princess Liliuokalini ruled in the absence of the the king, and she will simply continue to reign tho same as if the king were still alive but absent from the couutry." Carson spoke with considerable feel-ing with regard to the f nihil e 'of con-gress to amend the McKinley act so as to prescribo ihst its provisions shall not interfere with the existing treaty relations of the United States and Ha-waii, and he said he hoped the vessel which will convey the king's remains to Hawaii will also curry the news that congress had carried out the president's ; recommeudation ou this subject. "This matter," continued Carter, "undoubtedly cloudod the last days of King Kalakaua. The last ollicial com-munication I bad from him was a tele-gram from San Francisco last Friday, just before the final stupor overcame j him. Ir. this telegram he informed me that his health was but indifferent since I his return from the south. He went on to urge that I use my .influence to have that clause restored to its place in the McKinley bill and told Mr. Blaine to use his best efforts in getting what in reality every one wanted, but what as yet had not been granted." In closing the iutervlow Carter said it is a popular error that Geueral Dominio, Queen LiluoKalini's husband, is a British subject, and that her acces-sion to the throne means commtrcial triumph for Great Britain. According to Carter, General Dominio is a native of Amuriea, having been born in Bos-ton, but, in his opinion, General Domi-nio does not cut any figure in the po-litical situation, because of his long- - continued iulirmity.

NEWS FROM THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. -- - The Doings of the Day In Both House, of Cougres. and In the Varlou. Department., j Washington, Jan. 52. In the senate this morning a quorum appeared at 10 110 o'clock and the question of the ap-proval of tho journal came tip. Aldrich took the floor and stated the democrats had at last thrown off all disguise and disclosed tho fact that they had decided to prevent any legislation unless their wishes in regard to certain measures were acceded to. !, Harris said if the senate j,procecd to the consideration of the appropriat'on bills the minority would consent. Aldrich at the conclusion- of his re-marks moved that the senile proceed to tho consideration of the ffwolulioato amend tho rules by the adoption of the plan of closure. ,t The point of order was made on the democratic side that the; unfinished business was the motion to' correct the journal of Tuesdays proceeding and that as it involved the status of the Al-drich resolution, it must first be dis-posed of. The vice president indicated his de-sire to hear argument on the point, and the positions on each side were slated by various senators, Stewart arguing strongly on the democratic side, anil Sherman arguing that although the motion to correct the Journal was a privileged question it did not neces-sarily follow that it must be first con-sidered. Any other subject might be taken up in preference by a majority vote. The ruled Aid rich's motion to proceed with the considera-tion of the closure rale in order and overruled Harris' point of order, Harris appealed-bu- t tho. chair was Messrs. ;. JaUMTW-t-O- tt An(j Stewart voted with the democrats. Aldrich moved to proceed to the con-sideration of bis resolution for closure and Gorman moved to table it. The submitted the question and a vote was taken, it resulted, yess, SO; nays, 35; so the action to table was lost and a vote was then taken on the motion to sonsider the closure rule. It prevailed by a vote of 30 to 32. Immediately, however, Harris called up his point of arder made against the closure resolution on Tuesday; that-- it was not explicit enough to meet the rules. The ruled against him, but Harris took an appeal and was per-mitted to debate it. He is now reading from an apparently inexhaustible mass of manuscript to kill time. SPEAKER KEKll IS NEUTRAL.

The Daily News commenting on the victory of Furness in the parliamentary election in Hartlepool says: This is the most splendid victory since the general election. The Times says the election at Hart-lepool reveals tho danger that the unionists should never loe sight of. The Standard says that is no guide as to the result of the general election.

Scott, at the Dudley Street Opera hofise. A feature of the entertainment was the singing of his little daughter, Minnie Fowler Scott. This little miss, though but 9 years of age, has a pure soprano voice which reaches to the highest point probably ever touched by a hu-man voice. Her singing of Dora Wiley's exquisite waltz-song- , "The Ferrymen," evoked tumultuous ap-plause. HOME AGAIN. Major Andr.w. ol the Tnrenty-flr.- t and III. Boy. Arrived Tbl Morning.

PARLIAMENT REASSEMBLES. The Moat Important Mraaure. That Will Com. Lp. London, Jan. 22. Special to The Times. Parliament reassembled to-day. Gladstone was among the earli-est arrivals. The McCarthy wing of tho Irish party gave him cordial recog-nition. Lord Salisbury, Mr. Smith and the other responsible representatives of the government were on band early. The first business will be the titles bill, which has passed its second read-ing, and which is certain to become a law. Its main object is to secure the clergy their title rent charge without the trouble or unpleasantness of col-lecting it. . Mrr Atkinson gave notice of fhtt'lot" lowing-- motion: "That in future all questions be printed with the replies to them, and awaiting the arrival of mem-bers at the house of commons every day, so that tho business of the house may not be interrupted by members and ministers asking and replying to questions orally." It is quite likely that this rule will be adopted, as it will save a great deal of the time of the house. The last session of parliament will rank, for several reasons, among the most remarkable in history. It was one of the shortest; all or most of the im-portant work projected in the queen's speech was accomplished; there was no obstruction, and yet, owing to the dra-matic incidents which occurred during its brief term, the position of the polit-ical parties underwent a modification that may seriously affect for years to come their relation to each other. The principal measures dealt with by the government were the two Irish land bills and tho tithes bill, all of which passed their second readiug with only the feinted attempt at opposition'. The breakup of the Irish party gave the government nn opportunity of putting forward their programme which they seized with avidit3'. Whether the present parliament will be allowed to run to the full septennial term depends wholly upon the judg-ment of Lord Salisbury as to tho prob-abilities of his success at a general elec-tion. There are fresh rumors that it is his intention to take advantage of the breach in the home rule party to appeal to tho country. " CONFIDENCE RESTORED. The Boa on the South.

An Orator'. Compliment.. Bostop Herald. General Devens had a rare faculty of saying pleasant things in a charming way.

Some years ago a prominent Massachusetts Ollicial, who had hosts of frieuds, mar-ried quite late in life, and a year or two later became the happy father of an heir to his possessions. Among the congratulations there was none more cordial or graceful than that of General Devens, who felicitated him upon "the fruits of his Indian summer." Th. Grip In Nrw Orleans. Nkw Orleans.

Kinglake, the historian, has the dis-tinction of writing the longest history in description of a limited lield on rec-ord. His account of the battles of Alma ami Inkcrman is the most elaborate and minute possible. The timo he oc-cupied in his work was next to that given by George Bancroft himself to his history of the United States, which covered about half a century. King-lake'- s history is interesting.

Lord Salisbury.ii: a political speech at Cambridge, said he did not beliov either that the home rule contest was on the point of victory or that it was dead. He said: "Many positions must be carried before home rule is victorious. Even if a home rule is passed, it will be our duty to undo tho mischief. My belief is that home rule owes its existenco to two very clever men Gladstone anil Parnell. While they support it I should give you imprudent advice if 1 persuaded you that the battle was over. A vigorous struggle is still before you. The home rule rehearsal in London and Kilkeuny proved that the Irishmen were quite incapable cf conducting an independ-ent parliament. It has further shown the unlimited power of the priesthood, whose matchless organization swept --lown the man who hai been a despot of the whole Irish movement there and in America. That is the ruthless orga-nization beneath whose heel they would place the Protestants by granting home rule. CrrMn's Keturn to 'Chicago. Chicago, Jan. 22.

With sugar bounties and a booming ' sugar trust in this country, consumers may await developments. Toledo Bee. The sugar trust is said to be dead. 1 estimating the story one discovers that it has been reorganized under a new name. Its power and intention to use it is the same. St. Louis Chronicle. The sugar trust is no longer a trust, but a corporation. It is chartered in New Jersey and will do business in New York. The law has been satisfied and the sugar men are not displeased. Hairs have been split, and everything is now pleasant Albany Express. The sugar trust appears to be a lively corpse. Free raw sugar and a protec-tive tariff on refined sugar serve as the vivifying influence. It's difficult to kill a trust when it is provided with such an excellent medicine ns that furnished by tho McKinley bill. Duluth News. P0WDERLY IS THERE. A.
