HAWAIIAN TRADE.
Efforts to Secure Closer Commercial Relations
With the United States

NEW 1oRK. March al. Mott Smith.
Minister from Hawaii at Washington, is in
the city on important matters pertain
Ing to future relations between Hawaii
and the United States. He will see
a number of men interested in the king
dom and its sugar and rice products, and
discuss with them the feasibility Of bring
ing about commercial union between this
country and Hawaii. As the Minister
tersely puts il, I'VE would not only like
to have free trade between. the two
countries, but we desire TO have rela-
tions commercially as a State Of the Union.
We were satisfied with the treaty until 1876.
when the new tariff law went into effect
putting sugar on the free list. Ii Hawaii had
the same commercial relations to the Union
our sugar and be happy. Putting sugar on
the free list has virtually abrogated the
treaty tetween the two countries. j asked
Blaine Tor his opinion, and he answered
In the affirmative. But our relations
with this country are the friendliest,
and we do not propose to take the
initiative In declaring the treaty abrOgated,
because sugar is free of duty. We propose
to establish closer relations and become TO
all lnients and purposes as far as COM
merce is concerned State in the Union.
"A few young men. American born, on the
Islands, not dreaming that the United
States would ever put sugar on the
free list, went ahead and purchased
plantations. / can instance some young
men who purchased or bargained for
three new plantations for S5.O00.O00 They
will have TO 60 tn San Francisco TO borrow
money and try TO tide over the present dis
tress. But free trade existed the Hawaiian
Islands would blossom forth anew, capital

such as raising pineapples and other fruits,
oranges included, would be started. / know
that California objects To our oranges going

An Uneasy Feeling Expressed by the
British Journals.
LONDON. March 24.-The Daily News, re-
ferriug TO the correspondence. says there is
much force in Wharton's objection that
damages are unrecoverable from indi-
vduals. Cannot Lord Salisbury pledge
our credit for any fine imposed? Ii Amer
lea objects she might be invited to put it the
other way by pledging herself to pay for
the luxury Of prohibition.
The Times says the possibility of CON-
plicatons Is causing uneasiness among
the members of the Commons. II the
modus vivendi is not restored, il Is believed
that America will hurry her men, of-war to
the Bering Sea and sweep off the Canadian
sealers.
The Times, in a leader On Bering Sea,
says IL IS to the credit of the American peO-
pie that they do not respond to the noisy
protests of their public men. 1t is remark
able alter so many years experience that
party leaders still deem it profitable to beat
big drum on every possible occasion, aud
ask other nations, especially Great Britain,
to tread on the tail of their coat. We
fail to understand the meaning OF
the American reply that damages cannot be
recovered, because if the proposal is ac-
cepted England would be bound to recover
them and refund them 10 America. On the
other hand, If the decision Is adverse TO the
American claim, as most people acquainted
with International law expect. there would
be DO means, as matters now stand, OF Sc
curing compensation for injury done to Brit
lsh sealers by the suspension of fishing in
1891, while the renewal of the interdict will
cause much heavier losses. Commenting
on the danger of bringing the British and
American fleets in proximity. the Times
says it is only too likely TO bring them into
conflict. and concludes: Tail twisting
may be popular sport, but serious quarrel
with England Is not likely TO assist Harri-
son in the Presidential campaign"

WASHINGTON, March 24-In the Senate
to-day the Foreign Affairs Committee re-
ported, through Sherman recommending the
ratification of the Bering Sea arbitration
treaty. Sherman pointed out the advantage
TO the United States from the ready acqui-
escence in submission to arbitration, and
how Great Britain. by refusal of the mo-
aus viyendi. would be placed In an unenvi-
able ligh-. Sherman also reported resolu-
tion from the committee in The nature of an
Endorsement OF the attitude assumed by the
President, and, in substance, assuring him
ci the support OF the Senate. The discus
sion that followed WAS free from jingoism,
but revealed quiet determination on the
part OF the Senate to maintain the dignity
OF the nallUn and protect its rights. There
was no belief that war would result from
Tie present entanRlement, aud for sec
oDd time this session there was eX-
pressed the idea that as Great Britain

to administer TO the latter a lesson by the
withdrawal Of that priceless c0ncession-tne

LONDON. March 24.-In the House Of

ment of the soldiers at Aldershot for wear
Ing the shamrock on st. Patrick's day. 1t
appeared that private named O'Grady had

the officer that it was st. Patrick's day. and
he ordered O'Grady to remove the emblem

replied. II won't" lCheers from Irish
members.] He was sentenced 10 forty-eight
hours hard labor. Not for wearing the
shamrock" said Mr.. Stanhope, "but for his
reply TO his officer. The House," the Sec
retary added. would agree with the Gov
ernment that the punishment was Justified. I"

Patrick OBren, ParnelIte, will introduce
bill emitting the Irish, English and Scotch
soldiers to wear the national emblems re-
spectIyely on ST. PatIick's, st. Georges and
ST. Andrews days.
Noland, Mccarthy and Sexton brought
up the sha amrock incident again tonight.
Balfour said the last thing the Government
wanted to do was to wonnd the sentiments
OF the Irish soldiers. The officer forgot
about st. Patrck's day.
McNeill regretted that StaahOpe ha d
forced the discussion. instead of admitting,
as Bafour did. that the officer committed an
indscretion. He hoped Stanhope would
now say that no black mark would be re-
corded against O'Grady.
Stanhope thereupon promised that the
sentence would not be recorded.
In the discussion of the bill to facilitate
the acquisition of small agricultural hold
ingS this evening, Mr.. Gladstone admitted
that the bill was an honest effort in the
night direction. though falling short of the
actual necessities of the case He trusted
that the House, acting on common ground,
would produce measure that would result
In enormous good to the people.
Mr.. Baltour recipr0cated the spirit of Mr..
Gadstone's advances.

GERMANY'S CRISIS.
The Political Trouble Probably Ended by New

ror's solicitation. retains the Office of
Chancellor of the Empire; Count Botho
Eulenburg becomes President Of the Coun-
Gil OF Prussian Ministers, and DIR. Bosse,
who is also conservative of the same type
as Count Zediiz, has accepted the office of
Minister of Public Worship. No one is
satisfied with this solution of the Diff
Guilty, for there was really no necessity for
an eight-days' political upheaval. IL after all
no change was to be made The Conserva-
tives do net see how any coed can be at
tanned by the sacrifice of Count Zedlitz and
the Liberals are equally diseonlented. 1t
appears, however. that Caprvis continu-
anee in Office was considered essential by
the sovereigns of Austria and Italy and that
the Emperor'S decision is to be explained in
this Way.
