the HAWAIIAN QUESTION.
President Cleveland to Send 4 Special Mes.
sage to Congress on the Subject.

WAsuixGroS, Aug. ct is stated that
the President will send a special message to
Congress at its extra session in regard to
the Hawaiian question. Mr.. Blounts vol
luminous reports, including his latest and
most voIuminous Of all, are being care
fully prepared at the state department in
the form of abstracts and extracts for the
Presidents perusal. The situation in the
islands is admittedly critical, and promp.
indication of some definite line of policy on
the part of the United States is called for.
The President, it is said, will wait Minis
ter Blount's expected arrival in Washing
ton, on or about Aug. 20, and bis verbal
report of the condition of affairs before
definitely making up his mind what course
to recommend to Congress. 1t is probable
that one of the first resolutions introduced
in the Senate will be call for the submis-
sion to Congress of the correspondence on
Hawaiian matters, ''if not incompatible
with public interests"

Manufacturers are no, particularly wor-
ried because of the impending idleness.
Many of them, and in fact nearly all of
them, have surplus earnings that can be
used in paying current expenses and will
also be drawn on to pay quarterly divi-
dends.
There are many of the mills that need re-
pairing, and after the long season Of pros
perity that has closed so abruptly the re-
pairs will be made more willingly and ex-
tensiyely.
The shutdown will not be as hard on the
operatives as at first thought. according to
Sec. Howard, who in an interview on the
sit uation says:
The shutdown will be welcome to most
of the operatives if it doesn't extend over
four weeks. They have been working very
steady and harmoniously OF late years,
and great many of them tell me they
would like to have rest during the warm
weather. Quite few of them have been
putting money in the bank in anticipation
of this kind of times.
IL believe it is a good move to shut down
once in while, for a reason that seems
clear to ME. The mill people here are not
like the mill people in small country towns.
They go out on the streets and off on ex-

Hon. VIM. L. Wilson in Washington on
Tuesday being anterrogated as to the prob
able outcome of the extra session, Mr.. Will
SON said: cit has always been my belief
that the extra session will be continuous and
that no recess can be taken. Under any
circumstances, however, the tariff question
will be considered. So soon as the COM
mittee on ways and means is announced the
tariff will be taken up by them, and even
should there be a recess before the regular
session in December the committee will
continue to have sessions for the considera-
ton of the new tariff law which the COM
mittee will report to the House"
The rumored intention to place him at
the head of the committee on ways and
means was mentioned, and he was asked If
he would accept the place. Mr.. Wilson
hesitated a moment and then replied, with
a smile. "I have never known of any one
refusing good chrirmanship if it were Of
fered to him; but l will say that the chair
man of that committee during the next
Congress will not have his honor without
his labors." He added that he had received
no intimation on the subject beyond what
he had read in the newspapers. He further
said there would be no opposition to the re-
election of Mr. Crisp as speaker, so far as
he knew, and that he believed the majority
of the people of West Virginia were in ia.
