Tho Senate Calls for Information .

i
HILL OPPOSES THE PRESIDENT,
Ilin Jfnw Vork Senator Can Sen Nil Ken-
son for Withholding tho PncU from
Consrrem Henntiir Sliermnii Tnke the
Saino INmIIIoii tin tlio Mibjpct.
WAglllXGTojt, Deo. 7. In the senate yes
terday Mr. Voorhees Introduced n lilll df
elurlhK a petmiun n vestwl right, reguliit
Iiik suspension of pensions, and KrnntlnK
nppHls to the supreme court of the l)is- 1
trietof Cnlitnthta; also n hill ileflnlnu; sun
dry crime HKalnst the United States In
the administration of pension laws lioth
bills were referred to the pension com
mltteo. j
The resolution offered on Tuemlny by '
i Mr. Hoar, requesting tho president, so far
I as In his opinion is not inconsistent with
; the public Interest, to communicate to the
' senate copies of nil Instructions given to
' any representative or nny navnl olllccr of
tlio United Stntes since March 4, 18S1. In
I regard to tho preservation of public order
i in Hawaii or the protection of the lives or
I property of Aniericnn citizens, or the re
j cognition or support of nny government,
was laid before the senate by tho vice prcs
1 ident.
I Mr. Mills (Tax.) opposed the resolution.
I It called for information, but meanwhile
its nlithor proceeded to "shell the woods"
before ho got that information, nnd
charged the president with merllatnting an
act of war. He (Mills) denied that state-1
ment. The president's action in the mat-1
tcr had been strictly confined within tile !
limits of executive authority.
Mr. Vilas moved tlint the resolution be '.
referred to the committee on foreign re-'
lations. I
Mr Hill (New York) said he did not pro
pose to cross the Hawaiian bridge till lis
reached it. lie hnd no rellcctlons to cast
upon the proceeding or the present admin
istration anil no unkind word to say in
reference to the previous or present min
ister to Hawaii. There wns n disputed
state of fncts ns lo whnt actually took
plnce when tlio government of Hawaii
wns overthrown, anil it might be that
congress in its wisdom should see lit to
send a commission to that country to in
vestigate and report ns the facts.
It hnd been said, continued Mr. Hill.
that instructions had been given ho did
not say so, however, and ho hoped it was
not trui- from which it was Inferred that
forco might be used to restore the pre
viously existing status. Thnt brought up
tho question whether the administration
had the power, without tho consent of
congress, to use thu army or navy to re
tore the previously existing condition of
nlTnirs, even conceding thnt the govern
ment had been planted by fraud or even by
force, there were three 'departments of
the government, iindtheexcculivedepart
ment was but ono of them.
Congress wanted information becnttse
it wns entitled to it. Under the resolu
tion tho president might withhold tlio in
formation if lie desired. Mr. Hill could
imagine no good reason why it should be
withheld from the senate for a single
moment after the resolution should reach
the White House. For himself, .Mr. Hill
declared, he could see no reason for the in
sertion of tho words "so far as In his
opinion shall not be inconsistent with the
public interest."
Mr. Sherman, Republican (O.), favored
the passage of the lesolution. The dim
culty, lie said, wns that the president and
tho newspapers say thnt there inn purpi -a
to restore the queen, to renew the status
quo, to set aside what was regnrded by ia
administration as an unlawful net. Th so
were all matters of controversy. Hut there
wns one thing which nppenred to him to
be very plain, nnd that was that the con
gress of the United Stntes hnd not hi -n
trented in tho open and fair way in which
an administration, a part of tho govern
ment of the United States, should treat
congress.
Air. Sherman said that all he desired to
say on tlio present occasion was thnt if it
was tho purpose of the president, by the
use of tho military force, to restoro the
Queen in nnwnii, it would bo a fatal net
of public policy, a great injustice to the
people of the United Stntes, and almost
an insult to the congress of the United
States.
The congress wns the law making
power. The president had no right to de
clare war or to do an act of war or to pre
cipitate the country into a controversy of
this kind. If there had been less secrecy
and more open handed nnd fair dealing!
there would have been less suspicion and
less trouble.
Mr. Gray (Del.) defended the nttltude of
the administration, ns did Mr. Call (Kla.),
and then the resolution was adopted with
out a division.

Wrock of tho Ship Jason Off Mas
sachusetts' Coast.
TWENTY-FOUE OP TEE GREW LOST.
The Rurvlrnr n lloy of NiiM.eii, Who
,Wns Ifnronclniin Vheu Picked Up by
the Life Nutert The Wel and Cargo
a Total l.o.,
PlioviNCl'.lotVN, Mass., Deo. 7. The
Ilritlsh ship Jason, Captain McMillan,
Calcutta for Hoston, went ahore Tuea
day night olT ICastham, and was broken
to pieces in the terrific gale. Of the crew
of twenty-live only one boy escaped, he
being washed ashore with a splintered
sntr, to which clung the remnants of a
sail. The Ilfo savers, who bad been watch
ing for signs from the wreck nil night,
seized the now unconscious boy and hur
ried him to the littleshanty which housed
tho crow. They worked over hint for half
an hour, anil then he opened his eyes
slowly and spoke, lie told this sliupU
story:
The Hrltlsb ship Jason was n ghastly
wreck. Why he was not lost too whs tha
greatest surprise. He only knew that ha
wns In the rigging with what remained of
the twenty-five men who manned the ship
after she struck. Then the spars came
crashing down and tho men went with
them, and hu was in the water. Ho held
on for life and thnt was all. Ho know no
more until bn found himself in tho life
savers' hut. Tile men wrapped him in
warm blankets and put him Into a cot.
They dosed him with brandy, nnd hu slept.
And whllo bo slept the crews of tho life
boats ran up and down the beach ami
dashed Into the surf after every pleco of
wreckage and hauled It high up on tin
beach and looked for more clinging un
fortunates. Hut no moro came.
Then the first gray streaks of dawn ap
peared, and witli them the storm abated.
Slowly daylight approached and then, not
two hundred ynrds from tho beach wlier
the littlo group had spent a fearful night,
the broken hull of a mighty ship was
seen. The great seas ...mhed high over
her and whirled about the broken strips
of her spars. The life savers brought their
powerful glasses to bear upon the rem
mints of tbe wreck. They were looking
for men clinging to the battered hull.
Kvery Inch of what remained above water
was scrutinized a dozen times by o dozen
pairs of eyes. But they all gave It up.
Not a human body was visible. Like the
good ship .la'on, they had given up tin
struggle in thesurfolf CapeC'od. Twenty
four souls bad found their graves on tbos
Icy shoals. ,
And the hospitable ship in which they
made their home across the wide expanse
of the Indian nnd Atlantic ocean was now
their tomb. In an hour or two, as thp
men watched, tbe great bull parted, and
out from the dark interior of her hold
great bales of juto poured and dotted the
ocean. It came In on top of the still
mountainous seas and washed up on the
bench by the side of the broken spars.
It was whllo he was lying weak and
helpless upon the life savers' cot that t lie
boy, who gaxe bis name ns Samuel Kvaus,
bis ago as 10, and his homo as (Ireenoi k,
Scotland, told his story to u reporter of tin
Associated Press. He said:
"Tlio ship Jason, Captain McMillan,
sailed from I'aleutta in February last for
lloston with a cargo of jute. When but a
few days out we encountered n terrillc cy
clone and lust our masts and also our first
officer, Mr. Walker. Wo put iu at tha
Lsle of Prance and repaired. We had fine
weather after leaving there nearly the en
lire passage. On Tuesday morning It be
gan lo snow, with the wind strong from
enst-sout beast. It was very thick, and w
could not see more than tlireeship length!
nhead. We run under our three lower
topsails at 4 p. in., it cleat I up a little,
nnd we saw breakers oil tin- port bow. Wi
could not tack ship, so we hauled close,
with nil the sail the spars would stand, in
hopes to crowil her by the enpe.
"The gale increased as night camo on,
but still hoping to weather the cape we
continued to crowd on sail. At 7:10 sb
fctruek tbe beach with n crash, anil the
main and mix.en masts went over tbe
bide and the ship broke in two amidship.
About all of tbe crew, including myself,
went into the miz.en rigging when we
struck. When the mast went we all went
witb it. I knew no more until I found
myself in the sauds and wan being pulled
out of the surf.
"Of all my shipmates, not one is left.
Of their names 1 know hut few. They were
mostly Irish anil Norwegians. Tho cap
tain's name was McMillan, and the mnte's
name was Walker. Doth, 1 believe, be
longed in Greenock. The second mate,
Gc-lbralthe, and Boatswain lilack wer
from Selkirk. Thero was John Callahan,
Mike Mulligan and WUlintn Cotter, ol
Qiiuenstown, and O'Deary and Itoss, of
Plymouth, Kngbiud; Chris Neil-on and
Corpe, of Portland, Ore.; Murphy, of St.
John, X. II.: Johnson and Ilenrickson,
Swedes. These are all that I cm reinem
ler. The Jason was a Clyde built ship.
1,1512 tons burden, owned by A. and J. II.
