The report goes into much detail on the subject of annexation. Admiral Walker avoids the direct statement that this should be the policy of the administration, but by a clever process of reasoning particularly by an exposure of the conditions as they actually exist, he leads up to the conclusion that annexation is not only advisable. but necessary. IN TROUBLE AGAIN. Lucinda Dickinson and Prof Wilson Under Arrest in Buffalo for Using the Mails with Intent to Defraud.

The inspectors in the federal building learned this morning that Lucinda Dickinson alias Hackett, alias Dixson, and Prof Wilkinson, alias Hackett, alias Bradley, alias NVI Ison, were arrested in Iluffaio last Saturday by postollice inspector Ryan charged with using the mails with Intent to defraud. Both these people are well known in Boston as swindlers. having operated here only last liarch, when they hired the Boston Young lien's Christian association 'hail for the alleged purpose of giving a concert and lecture for a soldier's widow. At that tune Prof Wilkbtson was billed as Prof Hackett to deliver the lecture. It will be remembered that some time previous to the evening that the lecture was to be given the fact was made known that both the lecturer and the beneficiary were in league with each other.

A large number of tickets were sold. and when Prof Ilackett tattle his appearance on the stage some men who were in the audience threw rotten eggs and other missies at him, and amid hisses and jeers he was obliged to withdraw. and the proposed lecture and entertainment ended in a disturbance, the like of which had never been seen In the hall. HE RELATED HIS LITTLE TALE. Why Working in a Match Factory Makes the Teeth Drop Out and Why One Small Box Cost $2.

They are telling a good Joke on a young business man who shall be nameless for the sake of his family. Last Saturday, a well-dressed young man came into his office and waiting patiently for a chance to relate his tale of woe. at last secured the coveted opportunity. Then he told a story of a match concern in Portland hich was publishing a very unique calendar for the next year. and told all about its luminous qualities.

how it wound up like a watch and would go off at midnight with a tune anu announce with a phonographic attachment that another day had arrived. and finally he said he would like to send the young man some, as many as he could use, just to introduce the matches. Now the young man is a collector of curious and unique things. so he said he guesed he could use about four. This pleased the visitor very much, and he said that the demand was a very modest one.

This. of courses tickled the business man and made him feel that he was pretty good not to have wanted more. Rising to go the visitor had reached the door when he suddenly turned back and said: By the way I find that I have just one box of those matches left. There are about 540 in a box. We started out from Natick this morning with a four-horse dray of them.

and we have sold every box at $3 a box this morning. I slipped this box in my overcoat pocket to use in lighting cigars and then forget to buy any cigars. business was so good coming in." He then proceeded to show how excellent the matches were, and wetting one in his mouth he scratched it as readily as if he had not Moistened the business end of it. Then he told how working in a match factory made the gums of the mouth shrink and teeth drop This he proceeded to illustrate. Then he told about the history of his entire family, from the birth of Adam down, and all this time never said a word about selling his last box of matches.

Finally the business man offered him $2 for the matches, Just to get rid of him, and after some modest remarks disclaiming his intention of selling the box. he allowed them to be trangferrel and departed. Thinking it over afterward the young business man told his friends about it. and found that the man was a clever fraud. who had tried to victimize some of them and failed.

Ile pays 5 cents for three large boxes of matches now. NORFOLK SUPERIOR COURT. The Libel Suit of Selectman Dixon of F. haron vs George Kempton on the List. DEDHAM.

The latest information from the schooner Maggie E. McKenzie, ashore at Miquelon beach, Miq. is that she has been surveyed, and will probably be a total loss. The tug H. A.

Mathes, with the barges ti Nantucket and York in tow, were ini port yesterday. Incoming fishermen report very severe weather on the fishing grounds during the past fortnight.

IN TRUE "EAST SIDE" STYLE. Gang of Ruffians Known as the "Slimy Backs" Create a Panic on East 3Ist StOne Woman Knocked Down. NEW YORK, Dec 10East 31st st was held up in true east side "tough" style last night. The New York ruffian prefers to maltreat women, if be gets a chance. The one who led last night's row distinguished himself by knocking a woman down with a piece of iron.

The neighbors know the gang as the reunited remnants of the "slimy backs," and have been expecting an organized raid for some time. They were not disappointed. Mrs Mary Sexton of 327 East 31st St heard a commotion in the hall about 9 o'clock last night, and found three men rolling up one of the hall mats. Mrs Sexton struck one of the youngsters in the face and called the janitress, Mrs Lennarty. When the two women returned to the hall they found Mrs Sexton's brother, Joseph Coffey, wrestling with the gang.

Coffey succeeded in shoving the trio out and he and Mrs Lennarty held the door against them. However. the gang was the stronger and pushed the door in. The leader. Thomas J.

Murphy, struck Mrs hennarty on the head with a piece of iron pipe. knocking her down. Then the gang ran away, but returned some time later and hammered on the door until it broke. The Lennarty family threw themselves against it and held it in position for a while. Suddenly, in the worst of the uproar, there was a shot, and on looking out one of the gang named Frederick Hyster.

20 years old, was found shot through the neck. His companions were gone. It is probable that the shot was tired by a neighbor across the street, whose patience had given out. Hyster was badly hurt and may die of his wound. Thomas Murphy was found and arrested.

Murphy says that he did not mean to steal the door mat. but was rolling it up for a pillow that a homeless companion of his might sleep in the hall. SOCIETY WOMAN IN JAIL Would bean Example to Other Smugglers of Fine DressesSo Ward McAllister Thinks. NEW YORK. Dec 10The story the smuggling operations of settle of the so-called society women of New York, as recently told.

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, Annie Pixley's Sister Weds Julian Potter. Marriage Took Place Six Weeks Igo filler Sail Circumstances. Young Woman Has Been on the Stage and May Go on Again. NEW YORK, Dec 10Alice Berice Pixley the wife of Julian Potter. Friday, Sept 14.

There are several reasons for the possessing peculiar romantic interest, one being that the bride was the sister of Annie Pixley, who died about a year ago, and the other that Julian Potter is a member of the aristocratic Potter family of Westchester includes Bishop Potter and the James Brown-Potter whose wife has achieved considerable notoriety on the stage. Julian Potter is older than his wife, but he has her since she was a school girl, fresh from California; It was a love match, pure and simple, according to the mother and sister of Mr Potter. Mr Potter is a Protestant. but the Pixley family are Catholics, and a question arose as to how the marriage should be solemnized. The family agreed to a Protestant ceremony, and it was arranged that the clergyman should be the Rev George H.

Houghton, pastor of the church of the Transfiguration in this city. Not very long before the day set for the wedding Miss Pixley caught a severe cold at the seashore, as a consequence of injudicious bathing, and when the clergyman and prospective bridegroom arrived at the Pixley home, 27 West 6Ist at, the young lady was unable to leave her bed. The only thing to be done was for her to be married to the man of her choice with her blessing of the church while sitting up in bed. It was an Impressive scene, say the witnesses, who were Just the members of the bride's family. The illness lasted six weeks, and then.

Mrs Potter ioined her husband at the New Amsterdam hotel, where they lived until lately. The marriage has not been made public for family reasons. Miss Pixley has been seen on the stage at intervAls. Mrs Pixley said last nicht that her daughter had not yet settled her plans. but that it would not be a matter of surprise if She were to return to the stage.

DRINKING WATER IS 0 K. Though Coclittuate is Muddy Looking There. is No Cause for Fear. Boston's drinking water has been a trifle dark and muddy-looking of late, and there have been not a few complaints in consequence. Water Commissioner Thomas F.

Daherty states that there is no need of anxiety, however. as the water is 0 K. and as pure as ever. The slight discoloration is due to atmospheric changes alone. The srow and ice which cover Cochituate shut out the air, which is an important factor in purifying the water, and hence the warm undercurrent gets in its work.

It is almost a yearly occurrence. but while. as some Jocularly express it, it may add to the size of the license vote, it can do no harm, so the water board say, as the water is not at all affected. BOSTON THEATRE. EUGENE TOMPKINSProprletor and Manager WEEKS OF BOSTON'S 0 GREATEST SUCCESS.

Admiral Walker's Non Goos to Show That. Japan Also has an Eye on the Islands. Subject of Annexation Treated. John Dull Frustrated in Design to Seize One Isiand. NEW YORK.

Dec 10A Washington special says that Admiral Walker's report on Hawaii, called for by the Lodge resolution. is ready for transmission to the senate. copies of all the papers having been completed by the clerical force of the navy department The document Is an important contribution to the literature on the subject of which it treats and is highly inteiesting throughout. Particular attention is given in the report to past and present foreign influences at work in the islands against the interests of the Untted States, and to the relations and duty of this country in Hawaii. What England has tried to accompltsh.

first through Consul General Woodhouse and afterward throuh his successor. Mr Hawes. in the interest of Liliuokalani. is fully set forth in the report. It Is shown that Mr Woodhouse arrayed himself against the annexationist4 from the start.

and that he persistently adhered to this line of action. Mr Woodhouse kept up hie opposition to the annexationists even after the ex queen was dethroned and the provisional government was established. He was a partner to all the intriguer looking to the restoration of the monarch, even after he bad been formally accredited to Mr Dole's government. The impreesion is conveyed that England's consul-general was prepared to go to practically any extreme in furthering the restcraticn of the ex queen and thereby benefiting his own government. Mr Hawes had succeeded Mr Woodhouse shortly before -Admiral Walker reached Honolulu.

In his report the admiral removes all doubt as to the belief that Mr Woodhouse' had been working with a distinct purpose. and that his course was in line with the policy of his superiors at London. Upon his arrival at the Hawaiian capital Mr Hawes, who had seen previous diplomatic service in China. Austria and the Fiji islands, promptly adopted the policy of his predecessor. and pursued it with vigor, if not discretion.

He earnestly desired the dissolution of the republic and a monarchial restoration. His official relations were all with Pres Dole, but privately he was in close touch with Lilioukalaini and her adherents, and was in full sympathy with their intrigues to undermine the stability of the republc. Admiral Walker intimates that the English consul general was influenced in his course by a determination to bring about a change in the government of Hawaii that would be more advantageous to his own country. and therefore detrimental to the intereats of the United States. In some detail the report speaks of Mr Hawes' actions with this object in view.

It is not said to what extremes this official was prepared to go, but the impression is given that, personally, he was willing to employ force if neceesary to carry out his ends. Admiral Walker also speaks of the attitude of Japan toward Hawaii. He states as a fact that Japan wants the right of suffrage extended to her subjects in the islands, and that she manifests much earnestness in her demand. Thus far the republic has declined to accede to these demands. and the probabilities seem to be that it will not modify its position so long at least as the party now in power holds the reins of government.

Japan will be persistent. but without avail. under the present conditions. It is pointed out. however, that Japans attitude must be regarded as a menace to the republic, and this fact is to be viewed with concern by the United States, the eountry most interested in Hawaii.

The Japanese in Hawaii number about 14,000. Should they receive the right to vote under any modification they would soon control the affairs of the island, and divert Hawaii from its proper destiny. as a part of the American system. Admiral Walker says. The report treats in a judicial manner of the subject of annnexation of Hawaii by this country.

Admiral Walker deals with the matter discreetly. yet he makes it clear that he favors annexatian. and that that policy is the wisest one to be adopted by the United States if the highest interests of the country are to be considered. At no time does he say in so many words that annexation should be brought about to the mutual advantage of both countries concerned. First, he shows that Hawaii is naturally, and has 'ong been.

regarded as a part of the American system. and that owing to its position geographically, and for other reasons, political and commercial, it should always remain so. He then points out that the people representing the property and intelligence of the islands, and not a few of the natives, desire annexation. and that while the republic appears to be firmly established there are, and long will be, Influences at work inimical to its own and this country's best interests. Should there be a change in the present situation.

advantage would result to foreign countries. more especially to England. which would attempt to maintain and make the most of any benefit gained. Under the present scheme England can be expected to covet the islands and secretly, if not openly, to endeavor to bring about conditions which will make possible the consummation of her designs. As an evidence of English ambition in Hawaii.

Admiral Walker refers to the recent unsuccessful attempt of Great Britain to seize Neckar island. The island. which is a part of the Hawaiian group, had not been formally claimed by thatcountry. England would have hoisted her ensign on it while the admiral was at Honolulu had not the tot ORIENTAL RUGS, CARPETS AND PORTIERES!

Several hearings were given on the question by the commis-toners of Middlesex county. and the sclera' sentiment of the town, as there expressed. was in favor of a consider-tide widening. although a number of lroperty owners made a vigorous protest against the taking of their land, and gave notice that heavy land damages would be claimed.

The last hearing was held over a year also. and since then the project has lain dormant This morning, however, the county commissioners visited Watertown and rode over the country affected by the proposed widening. They were accompanied by the members of the, board of selectmen. town clerk Y. E.

Critchett, and a number of prominent citizens, including Horace Otis. Ward Otis, Thomas Gavin. Sam'l EL Gleason, Chester Sprague. Senator elect Oliver Shaw, Edwin F. Porter, Coolidge and Fred G.

Barker. After viewing Mt Auburn St the commissioners held an Informal conference with the town officials in the town hall. The commissioners are understood to be In favor of Inc widening. althougri to what width has not yet been definitely decided. A.

width of 80 feet through the entire kneth of the street from Main St at W-atertown sg to the railroad bridge at 3(t Auburn is favored. but it is probble that this plan will be modified somewhat, and that the street will be made less than bt) feet in width near the square in view of the heavy damages which would be claimed by those whose property would be affected. The widening would be on both sides the greater part or the distance, but near Mt Au- burn the ail the land will be taken on the south side in order to avoid injuring several large blocks. The tracking of the West End's toe on this street is deemed especially iPsirablein the-interests of raeld transit, and at present the roadway is far too war'ow to admit of the layingof another track. The moert prominent citizens of the town am greatly interested in the proJeet.

and will spare no effort to secure prompt action on the part of the commissioners. liCSCRL'aTEll DISTRICT.

Col. Dec 10The American federation of ianor convened in annual session this morning in Odd Fellows' hall. Pres Samuel Gompers calling the delegates to order. Fully 100 representatives of national trades unions were present to participate in what is considered to promise the greatest meeting ever held tn America for the cause of labor. Occupying seats of honor on the platform were John Burns.

M. and David Holmes. M. representatives of the united trades unions of England, present upon invitations from the American federation. While not delegates to this congress, these famous labor leaders will be extended full recognition, and their opinions will be daily sought as the deliberations progress.

Rody Kenehan president ef the trades assembly of Denver, made a short speech of welcome, extending the courtesies of the city and promising aprogram of entertainment on social functions and mountain excursions. Colorado, though a young state, he said, was well organizcti upon labor maters, and expected that great good would follow the results of this convention. Pres Gompers replied to this with a few words of thanks, after which a committee on credentials as named. Hon Thomas NI. Patterson of Denver delivered an able address upon the 'Labor's Rough.

Eut Noble Struggle." and he VI as succeeded by speeches of a fraternal nature from the English representatives. KEEP POLITICS OUT. of Trade Unions Here Contrasted With Those in England. DENVER, Col, Dec 10Mr David Holmes In an interview today said: "I find already in my hurried investigation of the labor movement in America that the working people are very much behind us of Great Britain. What is worse, it appears that a fatuous spirit of jealousy exists amongst the leadtsrs of many of your trades organizations.

I learned in New York that as soon as a leader becomes prominent. there springs up rumors that such a leader has been corrupted or bought over by politicians and other interested parties. ''Envious men seek to injure your leaders. hop.ng to usurp their position. In England a leader has the following of the people he represcnts.

and he knows that they will stand. by him throughout the strongest conflict, so long as he does not forfeit their esteem. And we do not permit petty internal factions. It seems to be here more a question of scramble for position than for principle. "Our trades associations through years of struggle and honest work have acquired a hirh position, where we are recognized as valuable aids to the couatry's prosperity.

One reason for our success may be that we have built up on no party lines. We suppress all political discussions or party measures. If party feeling were to creep into our trades unions they would be broken up in a year. I am sure you Americans cannot hope to grow up under it. Be politic, but not partisan." Mr Burns.

in talking of the position the trades organizations occupy in public estimation. said: "It will be one of the objects of this convention to at least see that in the free republic of America their unions shall recele that social recognition andjudicial ani legal fair play that they ought to have in a land of equal suffrage. Trades unions In England do not receive that unscrupulous opposition which appears in many quarters from American monopolies." SCANDINAVIAN SINGERS.
