On the resolution, said if it We're true
that the president Ghe senate being in
SESSION. auth orized an officer to exercise
paramount diplomatic authority in
another coun try with which the United
States was at peace, authorized him to
employ at his discretion the naval forces
OF the United States, and had given him
the title which was enumerated as one
OF the diplomatic officers in the act of
congress, he was standing upon very
slippery ground, and he had better step
on terra firma rapidly and at once.
| No Precedent For a President.
1.-THE ostrich puts his head in the
sand" said Mr.. Hoar, ':and thinks he
will Tot be seen. The rhinoceros hides
III his mud puddle and ;5reathes through
his nose and thinks he will not be seen;
but neither Of these are fit and suitable
precedents for the president of the
United States. The people ought to know
the truth in the matter
Mr.. Gray said Mr. Hoar had scolded
all through the previous administration
Of Mr.. Cleveland and had scolded Mr..
Cleveland into the White House again.

said he believed the policy Of Mr.. Cleve-
land was not only that of justice and
magnaninlity, but one Of non-interfer-
ence.
The Seal of Confidence.
MIR. Hoar commented upon the fact
that the information communicated by
the president to certain senators, under
the seal Of confidence, had been freely
given out to the representatives of four
newspapers, known to be Jealous,
thorough going-he had almost said I'M
rupulous-supporteIs of the admins
tration. One OF the allegations was that
the president On the 18th day of March,
1893, the senate being in SESSION. COM
mlssloned person to go to Hawaii, &C.
credited him by letter as a commits
sioner from this government. and said.
in the letter of instructions. that he was
TO be paramount as representative Of
the United States in the Hawaiian
islands,
II that allegation were true, said Mr.,
Hoar, it seemed to him as gross violation
OF the constitution of the United States
as Was ever charged upon VI imputed to
any public official. 1t was not necessary
to say to the senate Or to the administra-
tlOn people that al attempt to usrrp the
power OF appointing Or commissioning
such an officer without the consent of
the senate was an attempt to usurp all
the diplomatic relations of the govern
meat.
The Hoar Hawaiian resolution was
further debated by Messrs. Eoar and
Gray and was then laid over.
Mr.. Hoar read an Associated Press
cablegram from London, attributing to
Mr.. Bayard the statement that there
could be no reversal OF policy based
simply on justice and magnanimity and
that no advantage would be taken Of the
weakness Of the Hawaiian Islands. He
said that if that dispatch was true it
was also true that Great Britain had
been taken into confidence which the
administration, senate and the American
people did not share.
