HAWAI- FUTURE,
Annexation to the United States
Discussed.

Hon. Lawrence McCully, First Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court of Hawaii, is
staying at the Occidental with his family.
The party has been abroad for seven
months, and is now en- route for Honolulu.
when we were in England" said Justice
M cCully yesterday, I'VE saw the Princess
kaiulani. the heir apparent to the Ha-
waiian throne. who is receiving her educa-
ton in that country She is still mere
girl, but is young lady Of excellent prom
Use.
Il received few days ago letter from
the Hawaiian Chief Justice, in the course
OF which he said the Queen is well and goes
out riding every day. Many Of the reports
regarding her Majesty's ill-health and the
restessness OF the natives have been greatly
exaggerated. Wilcox and Bush would
douDtless cause discussions if they could,
but their fangs have been drawn and they
are almost harmless in Hawaii.
Inc commercial condition of the country
mas been the cause of the dissatisfaction in
Honolulu. The passage of the Mckinley
Dill was disagreeable surprise to our peo-
pie. and Its operation has caused general
depression. Some of the larger sugar plan
tatlons VIII probably be forced to suspend
operations, and the only manner in which
planters can continue their business will be
by reduction in wages.
Inc sugar industry is first in Hawaii,
ana 1t is also second, third and fourth in
relative Importance. Rice culture comes
next. but 1t is almost entirely in the hands
OIL Cinnamon. Coffee planting is compare
lively unimportant still. although it will
probably receive IN impetus owing to the
depression in sugar.
do not apprehend any radical change
in our Government. Were the Queen to die
Tomorrow, L think the heiress apparent
would succeed to the throne in due course,
ana the monarchial government continue.
Inc native race Is rapidly dying off, and the
DAY VIII doubtless come when the native
dynasty VIII be at an end. The next gen.
Grafton nay witness the contamination of
this prediction.
In that event political union with the
way out or The difficulty. We are all very
friendly With this country. and when we
come to San francisco we feel that we are
at home. The Americans are stronger
numerically and in influence than any
other foreign residents of the islands, but
they are not endeavorng to force annexa-
ton. We would rather maintain our pres
ent Government than seek a new alliance at
present.
An Engl sh diplomatic who has resided at
Honolulu for some years told me short
time ago that neither the English nor the
American Government desired to interfere
In Hawaiian politics, and that neither coun-
Try would attempt to force matters. II the
present dynasty were at an end, but prob
ably not otherwise, Hawaii would become
portion OF the American republic"

A STATE BUILDING.
The Mission Type for California's Cumu-
latiye Exhibit.

The Mission Type for CALIFORNIA; Cumu-
lative Exhibit.
At the last meeting of the California State
Worlds Fair Commission a committee. CON-
prising Commissioners Thompson, Hatch
and Phelan, was appointed to make recon-
mendatiors regarding the selection of a
plan for tie State building in Chicago.
Tho plans previously submitted by ten
architects were all rejected. and it is likely
that the board Will commission A. Page
Brown or some other local architect to pre-
pare plans for building to cost not more
than 49, COO.
Chief Burnham Of the Construction De-
partment recommends that the Western
States should adopt the Mission style of
architecture in their State buildings, and
the California Commissioners seem disposed
10 adopt the suggestion. The building will
likely be constructed OF iron laths and glass,
which will be inexpensive and which can
be readily disposed Of at the conclusion OF
the exposition.
When the California Commissioners were
in Chicago in June they adopted tenn
porary classification comprising the follow
ing groups:
l. Wines, mineral waters and springs.
III. Fruits, flesh, dried and canned; oils, nuts,
vegetables aud flowers.
Ill. Mines aud minerals.
~. Agriculture.
V. Arr and education.
vi. Machinery ana shipping.
VII. Topography, geology, forestry and forest
products.
In accordance with later requirements, it
is proposed to amend the classification for
the State Building as follows:
!. Agriculture.
ii. Forestry and forest products.
III. Vitculture.
~. Horticulture.
V. Horticulture.
vi. Fish aud fisheries.
VII. Mines. mining and meialutey.
VIII. Fine ana liberal arts, eIhnology and
archaeology.
During the exposition it is proposed that
each of these eight departments should be
under the direction Of a superintendent, to
be appointed by the board. In the mean
time. three men will probably be selected to
supervise the various classes of exhibits.
There will not likely be more than four ex-
ecutiye officers in the employment of the
commission in addition to the superin-
tendents, but already about fifty applica-
tions await the action Of the board at the
meeting to be held en- the 10Th inst. The
majority of the applicants base their chances
Of appointment upon their political il
fuenee.

SMILEY'S RETORT.
His Defense of the Work of the City Hall
COmmfsajon.

Commission.
Auditor Smiley submitted to the City Hall
Commissioners. at their meeting yesterday
morning, defense of the present admins
tration against some recent newspaper
criticisms.
The statement opens with review Of the
state of the new City Hall when it was
taken over from the outgoing Commission
ers, from which review it appears that The
building was not only dilapidated. but in
horribly insanitary condition. The water
tanks were full of vermin, snakes and
leeches; the closets defective; the roofs
leaky; the elevators out of order; the win
dOws hanging by mere threads the ventila-
tors were appliances for disseminating dis
ease, where they worked at all; the boilers
useless and the entire structure filled with
noisome vapors
Mr.. Smiley contends that the city has re-
ceived the benefit Of every dollar expended
by the present commission, and that in six
months more the work they have done will
speak for itself.
