WAsHrNGroN. February 10-Ths after
noon S deveopmGnts in the Hawaiian mat
ter have been important. Tonight tho
commissioners from the islands are hopeful,
If not confident, that tomorrow VIII see the
practical If not formal concluson Of their
labors. This afternoon, after office hours,
Secretary Foster held a conference with the
commissioners at the State Department,
which last until O'Clock. The cOmml5-
sIoners were informed that arrangements
had been made for their reception ~
President Harrison tomorrow, probably
at noon. This announcement, Of course.
gave them great pleasure, as 1t marked
the determination OF the administration
torecOgnlze them officially, and to enter
upon formal negotiations regarding tAe
object OF the mission.
The PROPOSED AGREFNBNTs.
IN the previous conferences the whole
situation has been considered orally, with
only memoranda IN writing OF the points
70 be covered. The officials Of the State
Department and the commissioners have
prepared from these the texts OF agree
ments which NAV be exchanged to-
morrow. That there is practical uni
formty III these documents Is shown
by tho statement of one Of tho Ha-
waiians tins evening that he hoped 10 get
through with their business tomorrow.
The probabilities upon this latter point
however, are that he Is too sanguine, for 1t
Is not considered likely that any determl-
nation will be reached by this government
until the representatives, OF the depOsed
Queen shall have presented their side OF
the case. This. Of course, cannot be done
before the latter part OF next week.
