Take up tho Protection to the coffee industry 1 will be one of the things to which 'nd killed by the strikers. It is the Merchants' Association of Ho iiohilti will turn its hand and time, if the plans which are receiving the assent of many of the members, go through. The Committee on Trade and Fi nance, to whom was turned over the matter as brought forward in the communication of A. L. Louis son, last week, has already held a meeting of the association, at which time the committee will report its findings. . The meeting of the committee with Dr Knapp was a most enjoy able one, and ilie members received much information of tlpc -Coffee in dustry of the world and uhat.Juay be expected of the new possessions of the United .States in particular. The committee was composed of Messrs. F. J. Lowrey and II. A. Isenberg, Vice President Dimoud being the tluru member serving in place of Mr. Wakefield, who is ab sent. The call was made upon the expert of the United States Depart ment by arrangement, and there was a long discussion of matters re lated to the industry which it is proposed to protect. The commit tee will have a report made to the association and none of the mem bers will discuss it in advance. Dr. S. A. Knapp, who is the traveling agent of the department, has had many interviews since his arrival in Honolulu, and will be in a position to give much information concerning the business here upon his return to the Capital. The most important conclusion to which he has arrived, at least which he has communicated to his friends, is that he will advocate the establish ment of an experiment station here for the study of the coffee industry. Dr. Knapp does not think it wise to inaugurate a great work, but his plan is said to be the formation of a station which will be given to the consideration of all the phases of the culture and treatment of coffee. While there will be no regular plantation for the investigations, it is proposed that if the department shall undertake the work, there shall be sent on here a mau who will be a scientific expert in coffee, who may secure from growers the privilege of using some of their now producing trees for his investiga tions, and thus avoid the long wait which would come if there should j or necessary tne cultivation ot a new plantation before the experi ments might be made. As to the pushing of the matter of a tariff protecting coffees grown in the United States and its depen dencies, Dr. Kiiapp is said to be very hopeful that there will be something done during this year, tie has given his friends here to Understand, that he would advocate such a tariff duty and that he will go into the work as soon as he re turns Jo Washington. It is said to be his opinion that there is not necessarily any great amount of protection to give an impetus to the business. Ther has been an understanding that the planters here will favor a duty of seven cents a pound, but this is said to be a greater sura than could be hoped for, and some of the earnest friends of the industry are said to be of the opinion that there would be stability given to the bus iness 111 the event of a tariff of one half that sum. It is alleged that Dr;Knapp coincides with this view of the situation. IN OLD .UADKII). Hundreds Aro Reported Killed by tho Troops. Madrid, Feb. 20. According to the news received here, a reign of terror prevails at Barcelona. The printers on strike have threatened death to any of their comrades dar ing to resume work. There have beeu many cases where armed strikers concealed themselves and "sniped" the troops. At San Mar tin, a suburb of Barcelona, the strikers fired from the house tops on the troops. The latter there- upon fired at the balconies, killing a woman and a child. In one con flict in the center of the town six men were killed and three wounded. The owner of a factory was stabbed alleged that already 200 persons have been killed and 100 wounded at Barcelona, but the authorities conceal the real figures. All the theaters arc closed. The strikers assemble 011 the railroad bridges and bombard the trains with stones. They threaten to use dynamite un less the railroad companies running trains. stop The newspapers here comment on the situation at Barcelona in a tone of suppressed anxiety. While confessing that the warnings have been frequent and' persistent for several years past, they say that hitherto the lack of funds pud or ganization have compelled the trades unions' to yield, especially as the employers, enriched by protec tion, were willing to grant the con cessVoffff.Si!gcstcd by the authori ties to avcrt"-g?ater difficulties.

The trades uuionsare working with the anarchists to spur the workmen to take advantage of the difficult economic situation and terrorize the authorities into forcing the employ ers to yield to the demands for in creased wages, shorter hours, etc. It is rumored that the Govern ment, fearing the Carlists will take advantage of the present agitation, has resolved to call out the reserves. The trades unions are working ac tively to proclaim a general strike throughout Spain on March 1st. At Barcelona the India rubber factories are now closed. This was the only trade hitherto outside the strike, and the strikers regard the closing of these factories as a great triumph. The telephone lines between Bar celona and Badalona have beeu cut. Slight disorders arc reported in the province of Saragossa. Barcelona, Feb. 19. The situa tion here docs not improve, and none of the strikers have resumed work. The authorities, finding it necessary to adopt drastic measures, have armed all the policemen with rifles. Throughout the day there have been conflicts in almost every quarter of the city, in which men were wounded on both sides and in which the rioters often almost over powered the police. Two batteries Qf artillery stationed here have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness to occupy the principal streets of the city with their field pieces. The street-car service has not yet been resumed. ' The proprietors of the news-! papers here have agreed to suspend publication until order has been restored. At 8 o'clock this evening the fusillade continues in the different streets. A gendarme has been killed and a lieutenant wounded. Two additional regiments of in fantry arrived here this morning and the city now bristles with bay onets. Troops are incessantly pa trolling the streets, occasionally charging and dispersing the mobs. Shots were exchanged on the Grand Vista by the rioters, and the troopis carried them at the point of the bayonet. Industrial and com mercial life in Barcelona is para lyzed. No goods arrived here yes terday and there is great scarcity of meat, bread and other foodstuffs X Printer Greatly SurprlatMl. "I never was so much surprised in my life, as I was with the re sults of using Chamberlain's Pain Balm," says Henry T. Crook, pressman of the Asheville (N. C, U. S. A.) Gazette. "I contracted a severe case of rheumatism early last winter by getting my feet wet. I tried several things for it without benefit. One day while looking over the Gazette, I noticed that Pain Balm was positively guaran teed to cure rheumatism, so bought a bottle of it and before using two thirds of it my rheumatism had taken its flight a nil I have not had a rheumatic pain since."
