The giddy whirl Of Washington soci-
ETY. will have less attraction for Mrs.
Gresham than for any other of the cab
met ladies. She is no longer young. and
life with her has never been holiday.
Her ideal has been the bee rather than
the butterfly. But she is n woman OF
sterling sense, and being the wife Of the
secretary of state she VIII entertain in
the manner which the inexorable IN
written laws of society prescribe. Mrs.
Gresham is really a charming hostess.
She is such a thoroughly domestic crva-
ture herself that she succeeds without
the slightest apparent effort in making
her guests feel perfectly at home.
Mrs. Gresham is below the average in
height, and her figure is rs slender as
that of a schoolgirl. She is not an OBJ
trusive conversational, but is exceed
ingly entertaining after she warns up TO
the subject. Her hair is heavily tinged
with gray, and her physical appearance
would not seem to indicate that she is
able to stand a protracted season Of
Washington balls, receptions, etc, but
her past experience has taught her how
to conserve her strength, and she has
done an amount of work in the way Of
correspondence for her distinguished
husband that is almost incredible.
Mrs Gresham believes that the social I
success of the present administration is
beyond question. As she very aptly ex-
presses it, with young and charming I

her home.

VIEWS OF THE SENIORS.
How BIount's Action is Regarded
in the Upper House.

WASHINGTON, April 14-Up TO the
hour of closing in the Department of
State, no information had been re-
| ceived there regarding the action of
Commissioner Blount in Honolulu.
In the course of the afternoon Carter,
| the Annexation Commissioner from
Hawaii, had an interview with Secre-
tary Gresham, which he said was
"quite satisfactory" He reiterated the
statement that the removal of the flag
was due to the condition of affairs in
Honolulu, which no longer warranted
its floating over the government
buildings.
The Provisional government can
and ought to sustain itself,n he said.
81 am not at all discouraged over the
situation, and believe that we shall
come ont all right in the end"
The news from Hawaii attracted 4
great deal of attention among the
senators, although there was much
reticence manifested when an effort
was made TO draw them out. Demo-
Gratis refrained from giving utterance
to what appeared to be their real sem
timents, and republicans, equally eau
tious, said more for private ears than
they will see reproduced in cold type.
The members of the foreign affairs
committee are naturally averse to any
discussion of the matters over which,
as such committee, they have juris-
diction when the senate is called upon
to act.
Senator Palmer of Illinois sees no
reason for alarm in the action of Com
missioner RlOunt. ~ can scarcely
see,n said the senator, ''that the act of
Blount can be construed as an aban-
donment on the part of the present
administration of our intentions con-
corning the islands,"
Morrill, does not condemn the pro-
ceedings unqualitiedly, but it is easy
to see that he disapproves the act
which resulted in the lowering of the
American colors.
Senator Cullom deprecated the act
of the commissioner and said: 81 am
not surprised that the present demo-
cratic administration should order the
Stars and Stripes to be hauled down.
They have taken the flag down when.
ever they had the opportunity and
there was a time when they had it
down in several States for quite
while"
81 am opposed to annexation, said
Vest, "but l do not see anything in
the action of Blount that affects the
subject one way or another
Senator Dolph of Oregon, who is
pronounced In his views In favor of
annexation, said: ~ am as strongly
in favor of taking care of those islands
now as | ever have been, and would
be very sorry to see anything done
that would Illustrate their annexation
to the United States. / have been
afraid that the withdrawal of the Ha-
waiian treaty and other acts of this
administration have been detrimental
to the end and l cannot, in the light
of the press dispatches, say what effect
Blount's action will have. 1 hope it
will come out all right. Blouat's
action may be the simple re-
suit of desire on Cleveland's part to
put negotiations on basis from
which he can deal with the native
authorities anew. l do not care to
say anything that will prejudice the
case and know little of the effect of
the removal of the prOtectorate.n

Fearing the Cho era.

The possibility OF visitation OF the
cholera to the United States this sum
mer is again attracting attention
throughout the country.
The California State medical asso-
citation has had its annual session
within the past ten days, and the be-
lief was expressed by nearly all pres-
ent that the cholera would certainly
reach the United States unless most
stringent precautions were taken.
1t has been discovered by the Uni
ted States authorities that the Ham
burg-Americanlin line is quietly landing
hundreds of immigrants at Halifax,
the presumption being that they will
work their way into The Uuited States.
This is the company whose vessels
were nearly all tied up in quarantine
at New York last year. Efforts are
being made to stop this new and dam
gerous practice.
\ cable rom London, dated the 10Th,
says: "The tide of travel from Amer
lea this year threatens to be somewhat
lighter. That most of Europe is to
have a second visitation of cholera
everybody who has studied the subject
firmly believes. That disease has al
ready reappeared on the continent
even earlier than experts anticipated.
At Lorient, in France, the cholera is
as virulent now as it ever was last
year. The port of Ouimpuer in France
is infected, as are several smaller
towns. In Russia, of course, the
cholera continues on its way, claiming
its victims by hundreds, and the in
vasion has spread across the frontier
into Galicia on its march toward
Vienna
a cable from st. Petersburg, dated
the Goth, says: "Of1icial cholera statis-
ties just issued show that from March
18th to March 9th there were 460 new
cases and 100 deaths in the Govern
ment of Podalia, and from March 9th
