Severely Scored.

WASHINGTON, August 8. - Minister
Rlnunt's long s-experted report on Hswa
iian affairs is in the possession of the
secretary of state. 1t arrived in an
official dispatch from San Francisco.
Blount is expected in Washington
August 10th, to participate in confer
ences between the president and Secre-
tary Gresham over the amended proto-
col of treaty submitted by the pro-
visional government.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-A special to a
Democratic evening paper from Wash
ington says: Minister Bleunt's report
on the Hawaiian situation has been re-
ceived. 1t is long and very comprehen-
sive. The annexation plan is discussed
in all it's details. The conclusion drawn
is that the Hawaiians do not want an
nexation. Minister Stevens act OF rails
ing the American flag and landing ma
rines is referred to at length. The re-
port puts that individual in anything
bat an enviable light, The idea of an
nexation is shown to have been the de-
sire not OF the people, who, according to
the principles Of this government have
q right to govern, but OF few. The re-
port will probably not be made public
till sent to congress. When published,
popular feeling here in favor of annex
alton, will it is believed, be allayed. The
result OF the report, so they who have
seen it say, will be that the government
will permit the Hawaiiaus to govern
themselves, and no other government
Will be allowed to interfere.

LONDON, Aug. 3.-In the commons to-
day Sir Ella Ashmead- Bartlett. con-
servative, asked the government wheth-
or since the stoppage OF the free mint
ing of silver in India there had been, ae
stated, depreciation in the value ol
securities to the amount OF s130, 900, 900;
whether the supply Of gold was not in
sufficient to the monetary requirements
OF trade, and what measures the gov.
trnment proposed to take to avert a
financial crisis.
Prime Minister Gladstone replied that
he did not know how to ascertain the
truth of the assertion OF decline to the
amount asserted to have taken place in
the value OF securities held in England.
He did not believe the supply of gold
was insufficient for trade requirements,
and could not svinounce measures to
avert crisis that he did not believe
would occur.
A meeting was held todaysst the off.
cial residences of the lord mayor to con-
slider the financial and business situa-
ton. 1t was presided over by the lord
mayor. The gathering was very largely
attended. Among those present were
Rt. Hon. T. ]. Balfour, Rt. Hon. Henry
Chaplin formerly president of the
hoard OF agriculture; Rt. Hon. Sir ohm
Lubbock, of the firm of Roberts, Lub-
book & Co., bankers; Hon. Thomas J.
Bayard, American ambassador to Great
Britain; Dana Horton !, and most
OF the leading bankers Of Lon
don. Balfour in an address dis
claimed political motives. He alluded to
the anxiety felt throughout the business
world connected with the currency
changes In India and the action that
might be taken by the United States
governments. A gold standard, Balfoul
declared, would never satisfy commercial
wants, while double standard alone
would prevent dangerous oscillations in
trade. He condemned isolated action
on the part Of individual states, and rec
commended An International agreement
fixing tha ratio of YAlue betWHan 0nfd
In the course Of his address Balfou,
denied that the advocates Of BIZ etal.
lism aimed at the imitation of currency,
Ihis might be true, he said, OF some
bi-metallist connected with the western
states OF America, but did not apply to
the bi-metallists OF Europe, who be.
lieved that adopting di-metaliism would
prove the safest commercial policy.
In the event of an European war. a
double standard would, according to
