While diplomatic measures are

properly so, there is much evidence
that the new treaty which Mr.. Alex.
ander may take to Washington will

deed, we have it on good authority,
that the existence of the new measure
is due to the American Secretary Of
State, who pointed out to Minister
ThurSton that a treaty of annexation,
with certain labor and suffrage adjunCts
which did not appear in the first doCu,
ment, would find acceptance with the
powers that be- If this turns out to be
the case, as we believe it will, annex

apart from all the circumstances which

ing to agree and advise the Senate to
agree to this particular treaty, it. is
difficult to see how the United States
can take any other mode than annex
alton to settle the Hawaiian difficulty.
A protectorate might be tried but as
the New York SIM points out that
would be annexation under another
name. The one fact is patent that
America, if she refused the tender Of
this group, could not justly prohibit its
profer to some other power; and no
body knows better than Uncle Sam
what European domination here would
mean to his western coast This is a
case where the United States cannot
afford to let the chance OF annexation
pass. Even if Uncle Sam thinks Ha

THE ROYAL WEDDING.
Marriage of the Duke of York and
the Princess May

London, July 6.--The marriage of
the Duke of York and Princess May
took place to-day. The city was
gaily decorated and the streets jam
med for hours by loyal but not en-
thusiastic throng. The Queen rode
in the wedding procession and was
heartily cheered. She was escorted
by the Life Guards, the Royal Horse
artillery, the Central Indian Horse
and the Bombay Lancers.
At the chapel the service began
with a chorale. The responses of
the Duke of York were loud and dis
tinct, plainly heard throughout the
chapel. Princess May responded in
a voice scarcely above a whisper.
After the ritual had been said the
Archbishop spoke few words of
counsel. He said that one prayer
should be that no element of wisdom,
charity or righteousness be lacking
in their lives.
The Queen was the first to congrat-
ulate the royal couple Then the
young peoples parents kissed the
bride and felicitated the bride
groom.
The return procession was very
splendid.
