BhouId tho Hawaiians Receive the SUBJ

How Independent Action Was Throt-
tied.
WASHINGTON, March s.-Mr. I.orrin A.
Thurston, head of the Hawaiian annexa-
tion commission, yesterday addressed the
washington City club upon the general
subject OF Hawaii and the United States.
In the course of the talk, which was
largely informal Mr.. 3Thurston was asked
what foundation there was for the report
that in case the islands were annexed to
the United States and the bounty for pro-
duclng sugar secured by the Hawaiian
planters half of 1t would go to the sugar
trust. lie replied by giving history of
the dealings between the planters of the
islands and the sugar trust, in brief as
follows:
When Claus Spreckels and the sugar
trust consolidated their interests the rep
resentatives of the latter said to the sugar
planters of Hawaii: 1--WE are ready now to
take your sugar for term of five years
upon certain conditions" One of these
conditions, Mr.. Thurston ssid, was that if
at any time the Hawaiian planters should
receive the benefits of the sugar bounty
provided by the Mckinley bill the trust
was to have half of the amount paid on
Hawaiian sugar.
If you don't like these terms eat your
sugar the trust said to the planters. The
latter protested against the conditions
imposed, said Mr. Thurston, but after in
vest1gating the situation they were con-
WINGED that the United States was their
only practicable market, and If they did
not want to eat their sugar they would
have to accept the offer made by the sugar
trust Thy contract was, therefore, signed
last summer. But before signing it one of
the leading planters went SO far as to put
In a refining plant, only to learn that he
could sell no sugar to the grocers of San
Francisco, who declined to buy under
threats from the trust that If they did
they could get no more sugar from their
the trusts refineries.
4 was one of the victims of the arrange
ment," said Mr.. Thurston. And an
other" said Mr.. Castle
Speaking of the attitude of the commits
sloners upon the question Of the bounty,
MIR. Thurston said their understanding of
the meaning of the terms of the treaty was
that the instrument in itself gave the Ha-
walian planters no ground to claim the
payment of bounty on sugar raised in the
islands, and If an amendment to the text
OF the treaty to that effect, in express
words, would tend to facilitate affirmative
action by the senate the commissioners
were perfectly willing that it should be
made

NEW York, March s-The conference
between committees of the New York,
New Haven ana Hartford railroad and the
Boston and Maine railroad has resulted in
an agreement between the two lines. The
understanding is that the Boston and
Maine is to turn its freight traffic over to
the New York and New Haven instead of
the New York and New England, and that
the roads are to cooperate in controlling
business In the territory reached by them.
In brief, the arrangement is an offensive
and defensive alliance, and, it is said,
practically nullilies the plans of President
A. A. Mcleod for extending the operations
OF the Philadelphia and Reading railroad
into New England states.
