THE PARAMOUNT ONES RETURN.

not"
In the course of the afternoon Mr.. Blount caiieo
at the State Department and remained for some
time in the Secretarys room upon leaVihs ho
looked even more mysterious than beiore' i" oiue'
to make sure that nothing should escape III" eve"
unawares he resisted the temptation Oh huh'ins

he was in the habit of living while In congress
and nut I'D at the Shoreham, which has less the
appearance of a watermelon patch than the famous
Southern hosiery of Washington, and Is an IN
hnitely better setting to the dignity OF Coih
missioner with paramount powers.
There is an impression abroad that MT. biouht
favors the establishment of protectorate tne
to be negotiated here in Washington. perhaps Dy
himself and Mr. Thurston, who represents the fro-
vslonal Government of Hawaii right uhder inc
eyes of the President. Upon what this impress'o"
IS based or how it has gained currency, 1t Is I'M
possible to say, for Mr. Blount has, since iaho'is
in this country, proved model OF discreuoh' IL 10
well known, however that the President looks WIFI
extreme disfavor upon annexation as soiutloh Vi
the problem not because II is unwse In ITSELF put'
II Is believed because It was the policy or MS
predecessor; and it is not at all likely therefore,
that Mr. Blount will resist the subtle influence Oh d
superior's judgment when he comes to formulate
his recommendations in the matter, even assuming
that at heart he opposed to the Presidents views
There Is talk of his visiting Gray Gables, but ne ~
more likely to remain here to await the Presi-
dents return, which is expected by September l.
No special reason for hurrying up TINS mat.er ea
lists al least not in the eyes OF the Auminl
ton And as the President left instructions to be
spared the trouble of considering questions not ue-
ma nding immediate attention, II is quite proDaoIe
that Mr. Bount, before unloading the cargo or IN

BORROWING FROM THE REED RULES"

Washington. Aug % (SpeciaD.As soon the
Wilson bill has been disposed of by the House. that
body Will be asked to consider and adopt the new
code OF rules which the Committee on Rules Is
ready to report at any time. Among the changes
recommended in the rules OF the last Congress are
two provisions which have been borrowed from the
Reed rules OF the List Congress- which were 40
bitterly opposed and yehemently denounced by the
Democrats one Of them provides that 100 members
shall constitute n quorum OF the Committee OF the
Whole, and the other clothes the Committee Of the
Whole with the power to close all debate by a
majority vote upon any section or paragraph, or
upon pending amendments only The adoption OF
these sensible provisions saved an enormous amount
OF time In the List Congress. and the refusal to
adopt them caused an enormous waste OF time In
the last Congress.
