Criticizing the coercion bill, Mr. Gladstone said it was passed ly men, a majority of whom, when elected, opposed coercion and condemned the permanent feature of the act and the suppression of societies in Ireland.

Dr. McUlynu, late rector of St. Stephens Church in that city, that he bad alreaC made himself liabi to ecclesiastic at censure by disobeying tha positive demands of the sovereign pontiff given January 17th. Wishing, however, to deal leniently with him, the Sacred Congregation refrained from inflicting censui-e'aud, offering him a further opportunity to be heard in his own behalf, gave him a final aud peremptory order to present himself in Itoma within forty days of the receipt of the letter containing such order, on the pain of excommunication to be incurred forthwith, ipsa facto and norninatum.

This letter was duly delivered to Rev.

But ha still refused to say whether or not he had received a notification from the archbishop during the last few days. He asserted that he had received and read both the order of suspension aud the command for his attendance at Rome, and he characterized inuoh of the newspaper gossip about him and his acts as untrue.

In reply to a question regarding his position after the impending excommunication the doctor said he would have the same right as at present to attend a Catholio church and to associate with tha most devout Catholics. But he would, of course, be denied the sacrament by any priest who knew him to be excommunicated. As for the simile drawn between himself fand Pare Hyacinthe, he denied that he had the slightest intention of marrying, and admitted that he remembered his vows to the church and should continue their observance In so far as his suspension would admit.

MacDonald's Testimony Coming Report to the State Board of Charities. New York, July 9. The Investigation into the Ward's Island Asylum affairs was continued to-day. Attendant Peter Mc-Intyre denied that there were any cruelties practiced on patients whose cases the chairman of the committee called to his attention. Attendant William Kerns denied having jumped on a patient named Liddell.

The latter, he said, injured himself by falling 1 over a spittoon. Witness had once been a bartender. He never saw the so-called "health lift, nor did he ever see any of the attendants beat or ill-use a patient. Will you swear that you did not deliberately let go your hand when the patient fell!" asked the chairman. "Yes, sir.

The patient fell about noon and' the case was reported to Dr. White in three-quarters of an hour afterwards. He failed to find any injuries on the patient. At 8 o'clock the same evening Dr. Walsh examined him and found that his thigh was fractured.

The man died about a year ago. Henry Clifford, night attendant in ward 19, denied that he ever struck a patient named Fisher with a mop handle. John Rice, who was accused of encouraging the patients to fight for the fun of it, said it was false He is an ex-bartender and admitted that he was intoxicated several times but he was off duty. Timothy Connell never struck a patient, but he saw one of the attendants do so. Commissioner Craig remarked that this was the first witness who admitted that he had ever seen a fellow-attendant assault a patient.

It was strange that the doctors, who were seldom In the rooms, coeld see assaults and the attendants, who ware always there, could not. Witness added that the attendant was at once discharged. George Berger, a head attendant in several wards, denied that he ever banged Ernest J. Brown's head against the wall for refusing to take medicine. Witness had never seen a patient injured by an attendant.

Other attendants swore that they never struck patients, never saw them abused and knew nothing of the health lift and cold water douche being used on patients. Dr. Trautman, the medical superintend-ent, was called. He gave the names of a number of attendants who ware dismissed for striking patients. He thought the patients received sufficient food.

A number of attendants and ex-attendants who had been accused by preceding witnesses of treating the patients badly were called, and they denied the accusations against them. The superintendent. Dr. Macdonald, took the witness chair and made a general statement denying the truth of the testimony as to ill treatment of patients in the asylum. In order to remedy existing evils, he said, there should be more room for patients and more and better paid attendants, and the superintendent should be allowed to choose bis own attendants instead of a civil service commission.

At the conclusion of Dr. Macdon aid's testimony the investigation was closed. Chairman Craig said that it will be impossible for the committee to have the report ready to submit to the State Board of Charities at its staled meeting in Albany on Tuesday. The state board will probably call a special meeting to receive the report. RACES AT FLEETWOOD.

ARMS SEIZED BY THE PEOPLE The Government Overthrown Without a Struggle and a New Cabinet Appointed in Accordance With Demands Presented to the King. San Francisco, July 9.

The steamship Mariposa, which arrived from Australia this morning, having touched the Hawaiian Islands, brings the important information that the expected in the Hawaiian kingdom has actually ocourred. The population organized and demanded the downfall of the ministry and the abdication of the king. Residents of Honolulu and the surrounding country assumed powers of government. The volunteer military forces of the kingdom were with them. As a result the Gibson ministry has fallen and a cabinet nam.d by the people, headed by William M.

Greene, bag been appointed. King Kalakua is permitted to remain on the throne, although divested of all present power, having acceeded to the demand for a new constitution and to abide by the will of the people. Tha king was thoroughly alarmed and on July 1st called a meeting of the American minister, the British commissioner, the French commissioner and the Portugese commissioner, to whom he offered to transfer the pro tern powers vested in him as king. These officials refused to accept the trust but advisad the king to lose no time framing a new constitution, which advice he followed. Walter M.

Gibson and his son-in-law, F. H. Hayselden, are under arrest, having been seized by the civio troops wben attempting to escape. The populace assumed control of affairs In the kingdom on June 25th and were joined by the Honolulu Rifles and other hastily organized military companies. Patrols were established throughout the city and guards placed over the military armory.

On the afternoon of June 80th a meeting was held at the armory of tha Honolulu Rifles, the meeting having been advertised by posters In the English, Hawaiian and Portugese languages, and long before the hour of meeting, the approaches to tha building were thronged with all classes of people. All the stores and shops bad been closed. The approaches to the palace were barricaced, but the royal troops made no sign of meeting the volunteer troops outside of the armory. The Honolulu Rifles ware under arms. On the walls of the armory, back of the platform, were displayed the Hawaiian, American and English flags.

The meeting was addressed in the English and Hawaiian languages and resolutions were adopted declaring as follows "The administration of the Hawaiian government has ceased, through corruption and incompetency, adequately to perform its functions and afford the protection to personal and property rights for which all governments exist. The meeting formulated the following demand on King Kalakaua "First, that he shall at once and unconditionally dismiss his present cabinet from office, and we ask that he shall call on of these persons, namely William L. Greene, Henry Watarhouse, Godfrey Brown or Mark P. Robinson, to assist him in selecting a new cabinet which shall be committed to the polioy of securing a new constitution that Walter M. Gibson shall be dismissed from each and every office held by him under the government.

The third and fourth demands were that the king should make restitution for the (71,000 of the bribe money, and dismiss J. Onius Kaal, register of conveyances, who was implicated in the bribery. The fifth demand reads as follows: "That we request a specific pledge from the king that ha will not in future interfere, either directly or indirectly, with the election of representatives and that be will not interfere with, or attempt to unduly influence legislation or legislators. These demands were turned over to a committee of thirteen, who made their way to the palace and submitted them to the king. Tha news bad already reached the palace, and the Gibson ministry at once wrote out their resignations.

During the progress of the mass meeting speeches were mada by all the prominent citizens, all of whom openly declared that the king must abicuate at once and accede to the popular demands before the meeting closed. Oa Friday, July 1st, the steamship Mariposa arrived from Australia, bringing 200 stand of arms to Minister Gibson. These were Beized by the peopla and stored in the armory of the Honolulu iles. After conferring with the representatives of foreign governments on Juiy 1st, King Kalakaua formally appoiute 1 William L. Greene prime minister and minister of foreign affairs, who completed the cabinet as follows; L.

A. Thurston, minister of the interior Godfrey Brown, minis er of finances C. V. Ash-ford, attorney-generaL The surrender of King Kalakaua to the demands ot the populace was as complete as the ignominy endured by his late ministry. What course the revolution will now take is not known.

The answer of tha king was accepted as an absolute concession of every demand made, and while there is a bitter expression of feeling against Kalakau, it was the beliif that whan the Mariposa sailed that he would be allowed to continue on tha though fears were expressed that Gibson and other members of the ministry might loose tbeir lives. Gibson was arrested, although military guards had been placed about his houe, owing to the belief that be intended to steal away on the Mariposa. When the fact of his arrest became known, armed citizens to the number of fully 3, 000 escorted the fallen minister to the coast, where Webb, another member of the late cabinet, and Hayseiden, son -in law of Gibson, were also tdken. As there had been no blood shed up to July 1st. when the Mariposa sailed, hope was expressed that the revolution wouid ba a bloodless one, though it might take another shape at any moment.

Interviews are printed here with merchants as to the proba -le outcome of tha present crisis in the Hawaiian kingdom, but they are somewhat conflicting. Some of those familiar with affairs on the island contend that tha trouble has only commenced, and upon the fate of Gibson considerable is thought to depend. In the past he has had considerable influence with King Kalakaua, and should he regain it the claim ia made that they might make a fight against the revolutionary party. Arrested at Last.

If tha tamper of the German press were a faithful reflection of the disposition of tba government, a war with France would be a question of a few The revelations at tba Klein trial, tba French tax on foreigners, wtiich is openly designed to affect Get many, and the prohibition Import on German spirits, have the combined effect of incensing the people to the utmost. The latter measures by themselves bave been held of lass account, tat, associated with tba spy trial, they bave heightened the general sense that French enmity is implacable, and that it sseks to woiihd the Germans where it can, wtviting a c-ance to inflict the deadliest iniury. Tha trial of Klein is the fifth treason trial In which clear proof was afforded that the French war ministry has organized a system of espionage.

A worse case than any reached is under inquiry. An employe of the central administration at Strasburg is about to be tried at Leipsio. He is charged with selling to the French war office all of the official reports sent to the chief administrator of Alsace by bis various subordinates. Tne completeness of this system of espion-see suggests that treason is still at work and tb -t any moment may bring further revelations. Official irritation equals that of the public, and both the officials and the general public would approve the strongest diplomatic remonstrance being mode to the French government.

Dr. Wegner sends word that the general health of the crown prince is in-proving.

THE PRINCE-ELECT OF BULGARIA. Regarding the election of Prince Ferdf- nand, as Prince of Bulgaria, Berlin official feeling favors the prince, but nothing has transpired to show Prince Bismarck's tendency. Count Kalnoky supports Prince Ferdinand. Duke Ernest of Sax-Coburg hag given only a sullen assent, with the proviso that the prince's acceptance of the ttirone shall depend upon the approval of Emperor William. The talk of the diplomatic circles associates Ferdinand 's election with the probable, development of an active Bismarckian policy against Russia.

The government press does not cease warning investors against the uncertainty of Russian securities. The Gladstone Testimonial. London, July 9. This afternoon at Dollis Hill, in the presence of a large number of guests invited by Mr. Gladstone to a garden party, the American testimonial to Mr.

adatona was formally presented to the ex-premier and afterward exhibited by him to the other guests. The presentation speech vras made by Hon. Joseph Pulitzer of Now Turk. Mr. Gladstone received the party of American visitors a few minutes after 4 o'clock, and after shaking their hands and presenting them to Mrs.

Gladstone, all proceeded to the lawn, where the testimonial was taken out and stood upon a tox. The massive piece of siiver work was most carefully examined and admired by Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone. It was the first time either of them had seen it.

Mr. Gladstone then faced Mr. Pulitzer and the two gentlemen formally bowed. Mr. Pulitzer then spoke as follows Mr.

Peace and new Ufa lor Ireland, peace and new strength for England, peace and friendship between England and America. Mr, Waiter having read the engrossed address, Mr.

Gladstone, who hod made some sous during the proceedings, spoke with deliberation and feeling. After, passing the beauty of the gift, he said he did not think much of what he deserved or might claim, as of the profound na irrepressible interest of America in Iks great Irish cause. He would not dwell upon himself further than to say that while public life praise and blame came from all quarters freely, praise generally came in a of which, for the most part, public could not complain. The case of America was peculiar in this respect. From America be had never had anything but the Biost generous treatment.

A Secret Dwelling Place Where Horribla Atrocities Were Perpetrated.

New York, July 9. A dispatch from El Paso, Tex. says in spite of military nports to the contrary only a small fraction of the hostile Apaches have been captured by General Miles. The remainder, numbering at least 100'warriors, are encamped in a valley in a ragged range twenty miles northeast of Loguna Santa Maria and about forty miles southwest of Lake Guzman. This range is aparently detached from tha Salamayuco mountains, and the existence of the valley has been unknown until the past few days.

It is in the midst of burning deserts aud a iabarinth of gulches and gorges practically Inaccessible to white men. For years, however, it has been the secret rendezvous of the savages. The valley was discovered last week by Tom McGraw and Van Ness Smith, El Paso prospectors. They w.re captured by the Indians before they could escape and both were shot. Smith was instantly killed but scouts report that McGraw was captured alive and died at the stake.

On Monday last a party of thirty-six Apaches descended the Coca Grade toward Lake Guzman. They were seen by the Mexican guards at the Ascension custom house in the babinal dUtrict and also by Mormous living in that vicinity. Further above, near Jan os, this party encountered four prospectors and killed them by torture. The bodies now at Janos furnish sufficient evidence of the hideous atrocities to which the victims were subjected. The hands and feet of all were chopped off, and one had his eyelids cut away.

They were Americans, but their nam.s are unknown. Thus far no stock depredations are reported, although the valley is full of some of the finest cattle in Mexico. The night before the descent of the savages upon the Coca Grande the large force at work at the Blancha de la Plata mines in Sabsnal district were thrown into consternation by the appearance of Indian signal fires near Corral de Pedras, seven miles to the south. A quantity of high grade ore was lying sacked near tha mine and of this rude breastworks were constructed. The miners slept upon their arms behind the barricade while the alarmed prospectors flocked in from every direction.

The whobt section of country, embracing some of the best mineral tracts in Northern Mexico is, in a state of wild excitement, and work at the outlying districts is practically suspended. The miners at the Blancha de la Plata are arming for the purpose of descending upon the stronghold of the savages and a bloody battle may soon occur. A body of Mexican troops has been ordered to the spot. FOR EVICTED TENANTS. Cable Dispatches Between Charles S.

An evening paper says Opinion is freely expressed in this city that the Grand Army will be the chief sufferer by the refusal of the president to visit St. Louis. Already several business houses have declined to pay subscriptions they made to the Grand Army fund. One subscriber said I think the Grand Army fund will be reduced to S25, 000 by the president's letter aud his refusal to come to this city. The finance committee has collected more than half the amount subscribed, but there still remains over $40.

000 to be collected. It is probable that many of the subscriptions will be scratched off in view of the president's action. An Overturned Passenger Car. Altoona, Pa. July 9.

HARVEY'S HORSE CLAIMS. Further Developments in the Affairs of the Arrested Treasury Clerk. Washington, July 9. There were more developments to-day in tha case of Oscar J.

Harvey, the treasury chief of division now under arrest for forgery and other fraudulent practices. It seems that while be was acting as chief of the horse claims division he discovered about twenty old cases in which all the necessary papers had been perfected, but which had never been finally considered because of the press of other business and also because no one seemed to be particularly interested in them. Mr. Harvey took charge of them himself and under the assumed name of W. W.

Wynn, attorney, addressed several letters to the third auditor urging their immediate consideration. Harvey then sscured thir allowance by the accounting officers by means of the counterfeit stamps aud forged signatures which had been so successful iy employed by him in other cases. These claims amounted to 92, 550, and checks for that amount were sent to the mythical Mr. Wynn, and in that way came into the hands of Mr. Harvey, who bad no difficulty whatever in securing their payment at the Citizens' National Bank of Washington.

He forged the necessary endorsement to the checks and then added bis own name. This new discovery swells the total amount fraudulently secured by Harvey to 11, 700.
