Waiting on the Administration,


The Hawaiian commissioners and the
Senate ar. waiting to see what policy the
administration will adopt relative to Ha-
wall. The commissioners do not want to
return to Hawaii until they have a definite
understanding with the administration, and
the Senate is not likely TO discuss the Ha>
waiian matter seriously until it is informed
of the views of the administration in regard
to annexation.
There is some talk Of sending a committee
to Hawaii to find out the situation there.
1t is thought that perhaps the actual facts
have not been brought to the attention of
| this government. A committee of that
sort, however, is not favored by the Ha-
waiian commissioners. They want prompt
action, and committee Of investigation
would mean delay.
! la the meantime the situation In Homo
lulu is not pleasant. Signs OF dis
satisfaction with the provisional govern
ment are cropping out 1t is stated that
the editor Of one Of the newspapers has been
arrested for expressing his dissatisf action
with the existing condition Of affairs.
Mr.. Stevens, our minister, is responsible
| for the provisional government, because he
gives it his support. If it was not for
/ armed force of American marines acting
under his orders it is probable the govern
ment would not last long. The govern
meut cannot have very strong hold upon
the affections of the people. II it had there
would be no danger OF a newspaper editor
succeeding 10 bringing about a revolt
| against it.
Minister Stevens attack upon the press
may have been justified, but it suggests the
inquiry whether he is not carrying things
in the islands with high hand. Indeed, it
would be pretty hard to find international
law that would uphold him in what he has
done already.
President Harrison sent word 10 him that
what he had done had been approved, but
what seemed right to Gen. Harrison may
not appear to Mr. Cleveland to be right.
Therefore it is within the bounds of posi-
| bilitY that Mr.. Stevens may be recalled.
| 1t is clearly not the purpose of the admin
istration to let Hawaii slip out Of the con-
troll of this country, but, at the same time,
care is going to be taken to do no injustice
to any one.

The figure sharps, who love to dalve in
statistics, are calculating what the in-
augurstion cost. and how much the visitors
paid for their fun. One calculator thinks
that the city's visitors spent between March
2 and March 5 as much as $4,000 900. The
expert says: This calculation is based
upon an allowance of $4,000 visitors.
Their expenses for lodging and food are
estimated at SIS q head for four days, and
the balance OF the total is allowed for extras,
principally for antIdotes to certain colds
and possibly snake bites. Hotel rates are
put at from "a to $50 day, and those at
boarding houses from 50 to IS day." The
attendance at the ball was estimated at
5000, which. at IS apiece for tickets, means
$4,000 for the inauguration dance.

Florida Central Rumors.

The Florida Times Union was in a state
OF mind for several days on account Of
rumors that the Plant system had purchased
the Florida Central and Peuinsular rail-
/ road. In its Issue yesterday it said, in its
local columns, that on Tuesday and
/ Wednesday last about nine out Of every ten
railroad men 10 jacksonville were under
/ the / OPPRESSION that the Florida Central and
Peninsular bad been purchased by the
| Plant system and we're specializing as TO the
effect the new arrangement would have
upon their respective positions.
! 1t has finally concluded there is nothing in
the rumOrs. 1t declares its reporter has it
direct from Mr.. Duval, president of the
Florida Central and Peninsular. that be has
not heard Of the sale OF his road, and it
wisely concludes that if the road had been
sold President Duval would know some
thing about it. One of the rumors was that
Mr.. Plant bad actually paid So, 900. 900 for
the Florida Central and Peninsular.
No doubt the Times Union will be dis
turbed by other rumors relative to the
Florida Central and Peninsular because a
good many people have an impression that
the Florida Central and Peninsular people
will sell the road IL they are offered what
they consider fair price for it, but that
the Plant system will purchase it is hardly
probable. That extensive and cleverly
managed corporation is not likely to put
itself in a position where it can be annoyed
by courts and railroad commissions.
Sayannah's interest in the matter is this
The South Bound was built for Savannah's
benefit and largely with Savannah capital.
That road has a contract with the Florida
Central and Peninsular which calls for the
building Of a road from Savannah
to connect with that road. There
is 100000 bond back Of this
contract, which the Florida Central and
Peninsular will have to pay IL the road is
not built in accordance with the contract.
And il the Florida Central and PeninsuIar
does not build south from Savannah it is
more than probable that some other COM
pany will. It is, therefore, to the interest
OF the Florida Central and Peninsular, or
whoever purchases 1t, TO build road from
Savannah to Florida. It Is within the
bounds of probability that the Times Union
will be able to publish in the near future
something more definite about the Florida
Central and Peninsular's affairs than il has
yet

The mechanism of the telephone patented
by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876 Is now
public property, the patent having expired
this week. Anybody who may be pleased
to do so is at liberty to make and use instru-
ments OF the pattern that Bell used in
building up the great telephone monopoly.
The instrument in use at present contains a
number improvements covered by patents
which the trust controls, but the old in
strument did good service and may be
utilized by rival companies or by individ-
uals without infringing on the trusts rights.

Mr.. sbe-man.s Proposed Reform.

Mt. She-msn's Proposed Reform.
The Joint resolution containing a con-
ssitutional amendment, introduced into the
Senate by Senator Sherman just before
congress adjourned, providing that the terms
Of the outgoing President and Vice Presi-
dent, and Of the senators and representa-
tives Of the Fifty-tourth congress, which
expire March +, 1897, shall be extended to
| April 80 Of that year Is attracting a great
deal OF attention. 1t is being discussed in
/ all parts Of the country. The impression
seems 10 he that a change of some sort
would be satisfactory, but the one proposed
| by Senator Sherman is not generally APP
| proved. The purpose of his resolution is to
respond TO a sentiment in favor OF
fixing the day for the Inauguration of the
President and Vice President at a time Of
the year when the weather is likely to be
pleasanter than it usually is on March 4.
It's question whether it would be ad-
yissble to change the constitution for such
purpose. The constitution does not call
for any such elaborate ceremonies as now
occur at presidential inaugurstions. All
that is required is that the President shall
take the oath Of Office
However, the country would not be salts
fed with a simple Inauguration like that.
The people make great deal Of Inaugural
ton day, and they will continue to do
so. The number who 90 10 Wash
inRton to witness the Inauguration
is steadily increasing. It was larger at the
last Inauguration than it was at the pre-
ceding one, and IL is safe to say that il will
be much larger four years hence than it was
this year.
The objection raised TO the Sherman
resolution by the New York Times is that
if it we're adopted new congress could not
assemble until six months after it was
elected. A congress that had been repudi-
ated by the people would continue 10 make
laws for that length of time.
While it is desirable TO have pleasant
weather for the inaugural ceremonies 1t
is far more desirable that the new
administration and the new congress should
take charge Of the government as soon as
possible after they have been elected.
IL has been suggested that it would be
better from all points of view, except that
Of the weather, for the new administration
to be inaugurated on Jan. l instead of
March 4, and also for the new congress to
assemble on that date. Gubernatorial in
augurations occur on that date and there
would be a certain fitness in having the
presidential Inauguration in harmony with
them.
Now that the question of changing the
date of the ending of a congress and Of the
presidential term has been raised there may
be suggestions in regard to the matter that
will be more acceptable than any that have
yet been offered.

Dr. Wayland tells q good story OF a young
clergyman who preached a strong temperance
sermon, says the New York Tribune When he
had finished deacon said to him: II am afraid
you have made mistake MIR. Jones, who DAYS

angry" The munster said: 90 am sorry:
will go and explain it TO Mr.. Jones, and re-
move any unfavorable impression, and tell him
that did not mean him." Accordingly. he
waited upon Mr. Jones, who, in addition to the
profession of distilling. also carried on q good
many other branches of trade and good many
amusements, and was not distinguished above
other men as being an ascetic The pastor ex-
pressed his regret to Mr., Jones for anything in

somewhat relieved when, with jovial air, MI.
Jones said: 20, bless you, don't mind that at
all. 1t must be mighty poor sermon that

may be made more alike should there be
blundering in the Force case, and a pro-

When the oceau Greyhounds, City of New
York and City of Paris, were granted
American registry, and became ships Of the
United States naval reserve, it was required
that their commanders should be American
citizens. But there was no requirement
that their engineers should be Americans,
30 that the English engineers who were in
the ships prior to their change Of nationality
are still in them. Secretary Foster ruled
that it was sufficient for them to file decara-
tions Of their intention to become American
citizens. The Marine Engineers Association
of America has taken exception to this rul =
ing by Secretary Foster, and has forwarded
petition and protest to President Cleveland
asking that the ships be required to carry
American engineers. They claim, and with
reason, that it is as important that auxiliary
ships of the American navy should have
American engineers as well as American
captains.

The new immigration law, signed by
President Harrison just prior to the expi-
ration of his term, excludes from this coun-
try all immigrants over 10 years old who
are illiterate or incurably inflrm of mind or
body, and all who are members of anarch-
istic societies. This law, rigidly enforced,
as ii should be. in connection with the
previously existing laws on the subject,
should result in admitting only desirable
foreign element into the country.
