An Ottawa special to Chicago says:
Colonel Ashford, commander of the
Hawaiian army, admits that he would
not be surprised to see the islands
annexed to the United States in the
near future. The placing of sugar
on the free list under the Mckinley
bill deprived them of the reciprocity
advantages which they for years en-
ioyed, and the plantation owners are
raising the cry of annexation, so that
they may regain what they lost.

Secretary Foster Talks on the Condition OF

BROOKLYN, June 5.-Secretary Foster
was the guest of the Union league club
of Brooklyn last evening. After dinner
a reception was held at which the secre-
tary spoke in part as follows: ''Our
democratic friends have had good deal
to say of late about the billion dollar
congress. His late excellency Grover
Cleveland would seem to be troubled
on this score also. These gentlemen
forget all the while that this is billion
dollar country. Applause. Congress
did make large appropriations for pen
sions and for all kinds of pub
lie service. In no case, so far as
these appropriations are concerned,
were they greater than the necessity
called for. l am not defending the ap-
preparations Some of them l would
not defend But every move we make
our democratic friends seem to think
indicates poverty in the treasury de-
partment. Recently 1 thought it wise
and prudent to propose an extension of
the ~ per cent bonds. The treasury
department is abundantly able to pay
the bonds when they mature.
In view of the fact that $50, OOO, OOO
in gold has been expended within a
short period of time, 1 deem it unwise
to do anything just now to decrease the
volume of currency in the national

ST. LOUIS, June 5.-The published
report that the Deutsche-American
clergymen's society of this city was the
author of the so-called Lucerne petition
to Pope Leo NH. in reference to the
immigration of Catholic priests in
charge of immigrants to this country
has called out from Rev. William
Faerher, corresponding secretary of the
society. the following sweeping denial:
81 hereby formally and officially de-
clare in the name of the Deutsche-
Amerikanischer Priester-Verein that
said society was in no way whatever,
directly or indirectly, connected with
the so-called Lucerne memorial; that
said society had not the least idea of its
existence prior to its being made pub
lie through European cablegrams and

THE IMMIGRATION WAVE.

Statutes Need Repairs to Prevent an Over
whelmtnE Flood
WASHINGTON, June 6.-Gen. James
G. O'Berne, deputy commissioner of inn
migration at New York, who is in
Washington comforting with the treas
ury officials about immigration matters,
says the new immigration law, while
effective as far as it goes, is not yet
comprehensive enough, and that con.
gress will be compelled to amend
it next winter. The law. he
thinks. lacks the positiveness
usually given to health boards. Some
thing. he says, will have to be done tc
prevent the arrival of unskilled laborers
who displace Americans in order that
corporations may pay less wages. De
spite the contract labor law men who
have been foremen or superintendent
60 abroad and secure large gangs OF
in detached sections and keeping Sc
cret the matter of their contract He
says, also. that this state of affairs
can only be remedied by the watchful.
ness of officers of the labor unions. who
can aid the immigration bureau by no.
tifying it at New York or Washington
when gangs Of workmen appear in their
town under suspicious circumstances.
The facts would then be investigated
and the men. if they came here under
contract and are discovered within a
year, can be returned to the country
from whence they came.

SURRENDERED.

The Insurgent Gillian Steamer Itata Sur
rendered to the United States.
sIQUIQUE, June 5.-The Itata arrived
here early yesterday and was at once
surrendered to the American men-of-
war in this harbor. 1t is expected that
the United States war ship Charleston
will arrive here to-day.
All the arms taken at San Diego by
the Itata, consisting of $4,000 rifles,
were turned over with the vessel.
The commander of the ltata states
that the arms were not embarked at
San Diego. but at point many miles
at sea. The Iquique government claims
that this circumstance modifies the sit
uation considerably and will probably
result in a speedy solution of the diff
culties between the admirals and the
junta- The authorities at the same
time declare that the cargo of the Itata
is of little Importance, taking into con-
s;deration the small number of arms.
THE NEWS FULLY CONFIRMED.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-A cable dis
patch from IqSique has been received
here announcing the surrender of the
Itata to the commandant of the United
States naval force there. The Itata
arrived at Tocopilla Wednesday and was
ordered to 60 to Iquique, where the
authorities surrendered her.

they were both in good humor-he and

took anything with her and noticed
nothing unusual in her manner. They
had been married thlrty-fOur years
He had married her in Platte county,

lived together pleasantly. Eight years
ago she had tried to get divorce, but
she took it back. She didn't get the
divorce. They didn't get married
again They had lived apart for three
months
Mr.. Webb asked If this trouble was
not due to his drinking habits and his
bad treatment of his wife?

BRIGGS SUSTAINED.

The Directors OF Union Theological Sem.
inaFy Defy tho Veto Of the Presbyterian
Assembly.
New YORK. June 6.-The directors Of
Union theological seminary have met
and declared their position on the ques-
ton of the right of the general assem-
bly, of the Presbyterian church to veto
the transfer of Prof. Charles A. Briggs
from the chair of Hebrew to the chair
of biblical theology. The resolution
passed at their meeting held yesterday
afternoon is as follows:
Resolved. That the board Of directors.
after having taken legal advice and
after due consideration, see no reason
to change their views on the subject OF
the transfer of DR.. Briggs and feel
bound, in the discharge of their duties
under the charter and constitution OF
the seminary, to adhere to the same.
The intent of the vote passed by tho
general assembly at its recent session
in Detroit was that DIR. Briggs should
cease to be q professor in the Union
seminary. The effect Of the resolution
given above is that it is the judg-
ment Of the directors that the veto
was a usurpation of powers never given
or intended to be given to the general
assembly. and that since the veto was
illegal. the appointment stands, and DR..
Briggs will continue as professor dur.
ing the coming year as during the past
seventeen years.
The fact that a struggle was in prog
ress behind closed doors was evident
when Prof. George A. Prentiss stag
gered out into the hall after the discus
sion had been under way for two
hours, and nearly sank to the floor
through weakness brought on BY over
excitement The venerable professors
body shook like leaf and he had to be
assisted to private room until he had
recovered Then DR.. Hastings left his
place in the meeting and accompanied
the professor to his home.
Only one ballot was taken on the
resolution and the vote stood 20 to in
favor of its passage. The directors OF
the seminary express ignorance as to
the duties of the committee of fifteen
appointed by the general assembly, but
say that they will receive them with
all the courtesy possible when they
visit the city.
It is evident now in the face of the
present action of the seminary directors
that the visit of the general assembly
committee will be useless.

NATIONAL TREASURY.

An Offer to Extend the Four and q Halt
Bonds at One aud . Hslf-The Treasury
Well Supplied-The Circulation.
WASHINGTON, June 4-Notice has
been given by Secretary Foster that the
principal and accrued interest of the ~
per cent. bonds issued under the acts of
July "a, 1870, and January 20. 1871, out
standing September 2, 1891. will be paid
at the treasury OF the United States on
that day, and that the interest on the
bonds will then cease. Suggestions
have been made on the part of the hold.
ers of some Of these bonds of a
desire to extend the payments at the
option of the United States at the rate
of ~ per cent per annum, and the
secretary Of the treasury will hereafter
consider whether the acceptance of
such offers Of them will be profitable to
the government and in that event re-
serves the right to except such bonds
from this call
1t is Off ially stated that the sugges-
tions as to the extension of the AZ per
cent loan added to the call made to-
day is made more as a matter of prece-
dence than of necessity. The treasury
department, it is said. is abundantly able
to pay all of the ISL, ZOO. QUO ~ per cents
outstanding. but in view of the uncer-
tainty of future receipts and expendi-
lures it is judged better to take the side
of safety. The secretary not only be-
1ieves that he has ample means to de-
fray all the expenses of the govern
ment, but is confident that he will be
able to retire q considerable amount of
the public debt in addition to the S,36.
100000 already paid during the present
administration. One of the purposes
in suggesting an opportunity to extend
the maturing loan at a nominal rate of
interest is the desire to avoid the en-
forced retirement of part or all of the
SIS. GOO, 900 national bank circulation
now secured by the AZ per cent bonds.
During the month of May there was
