Sun Francisco, Feb. 7. While the con
fession of John Cummlugs, one of the
Hawaii rebels, whleh was published
yesterday, seems to Implicate Kudolph
Sprcckels as the one who furnished the
arms to the insurrectionists, the gov
ernment does not seem to have strong
proof of the fact. Anions the ex
iiueen'a papers, which were seined by
the Kovermnent. were found memor
anda In which she says Spreckels had
advised the use of urms. but she was
doubtful of adopting such measures.
Anions her notes were also references
of the uppolntment by her of a com
mission to po to Wash! us ton and seo
1'resldent Cleveland. She says one of
the commissioners, Sum I'urker, trieu
to sell his secret to W. U. Irwin. J. O.
Carter, the ex-queen's counsel, advised
arbitration, and when young: Spreckely
advised force she thought the arbitra
tion plan would please President Cleve
land better. ItcKurdint; the purchase
of urms it is the impression that young
Spreckels did not purchase the arms
himself, but simply advanced money
on the queen's account, and that the
arms were purchased by some one else.
It Is known the court martial has
passed death sentences on some of the
rebels, presumably Wilcox, llurleman,
Nolan, tlulick, Walker, Davles and
Klckard. and sentences of lite Imprison
ment for many others. Vhese decisions
have been handed to 1'resldent Dole for
final Judgment, and he will decide
whether or not they shall be carried
out. It is certain .nothing will be done
hustily or In a spirit of revenge.
Sprccklcs in Sua l'mud-ico.
Kudolph Spreckles, who Is uccused
of furnishing; the Hawaiian rebels with
arms, is the youngest s..ii of Claus
Spreckels. and Is about years old.
He has lived in Honolulu much of his
life. and. like all Spreckels' sons, has
plenty of money. He is at present in
San Francisco. V. 11. Cornwall, who is
ulso wanted in Honolulu, Is In the cltv.
, London, Feb. ".In an Interview with
A. Hoffriung, who was the Hawaiian
charge d'aft'ulrs here under ex-ljueen
Lilluokalani. he is quoted as sayln
that the abdication of the queen could
only have a pacifying effect upon H i
waiian polities, as, doubtless, the repub
lic would make terms with her in re
jrard to her future and the position of
l'rincess Kalulanl. the young- ladv who
considered herself the heiress to the
throne of Hawaii. The princess, is now
In lOngland. Mr. Hoffnung added:
"Of course it was well understood
that the republic of Hawaii was always
prepared to deal liberally with the
queen, provided she renounced her rlt-ht
to the throne, and, doubtless, numbers
of Koyallsts will now become Republi
cans." Washington. Feb. 7. Minister Thur
ston has received a dispatch from
Honolulu which confirms the Associat
ed Press dispatches concerning the
trials of the rebels and the abdication
of LUiuokalanl. He says his dispatches
contain nothing about interference on
the part of Minister Willis concerning
any of the offuhders.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
A new breaker Is to be built at Auden
rled.
Philadelphia capitalists will build a
washery at No. 3 Ebervale culm mini;.
Morgan H. Williams' new mines In
Pottsville are said to be very prom
ising.
Coxe Bros. & Co. will next spring
strip hundreds of acres of coal land at
Buck Mountain.
The Conlock coal washery, at
Tresckow, Is to resume operations on
ur about April 1.
Near the Monarch coal washery, nt
Honey Brook, a stripping Is to be start
ed by James Pollock & Co.
A new stripping is to be opened at
Eekley. There Is about 2.'0,0()0 cublo
yards of clay and rock to be removed
from the thick basin ot coal at iso.
colliery.
At Hazlu Brook, the old No. 1 slope
Is to be re-opened, and at Mllnesvllle,
stripping that have been idle nil win
ter will be started up again as soon as
warm weather arrives.
As sooti as the weather will permit
the strlpplngs at the Lattlmer colliery,
which have been Idle Nince last Decem
ber will resume, and at least 1,500
laborers will be givon work.
The owners of the No. 1 Ebervale
washery tire so favorably Impressed
with Its value as a producer of smaller
sizes of coal that they have In con
templatlon the building of an addition,
iquaMy i.' large ns the present breaker,
and the operating of the same day and
night. At present this washery em
ploys over IU0 men and tho shipments
are over :sui ions.
Philadelphia Stockholder: Attention
Is directed, by a specialist In the an
thracite coal trade, to the profit, derived
by certain anthracite coal shippers from
their line trade against tide-water busi
ness, strikingly Illustrated by the certain
data In the annual reports of the Head
lug and Lehigh Valley. The Lehigh
Valley reported an average loss tier ton
on Its coal of 70 cents during the year
ls:4. compared with lM.I; the Heading
loss was 23.7 cents per ton. This differ
ence of 40.3 cents per ton wus due
largely to the fact that after the great
bulk of Lehigh Valley's coal In propor
Hon to Its total was marketed In tide
water markets, the opposite was tho
case with the Heading's operation. It
Is reasonably certain that a market
affording superior facilities will be held
on to with great tenacity, and that
many concessions will be made be f org
It will be given up. All this has
bearing upon the Pennsylvania's stand
to equalize line and tide-water freights,
which would be equlvolent to equallz
Ing line and tide-water prices.

today. The result of tho transactions
of the day was only 67.400 hure and
fluctuations In a majority of instances
of to ',(, per cent. In tho Initial deal
ings the market was somowhat higher,
but the rise induced realizations and a
reaction ensued. General Electric ile-
llned 1V4 to 2SVi, and tho remainder ot
tho list Vi to Vi per cent. Near tho
close there was a fractional rally.
Among the specialities New England
moved up 1 to 31V6, Norfolk and YV est-
ern common declined to 3, while the
preferred rose to Y.. The placing
of this company In the hands of re
ceivers had no particular effect either

but such wus not the case, und the

Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure thefr many pat
rons thut they -will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, anil
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers ara
of the opinion thut it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully threa
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Wushburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
