HOPE ABANDONED
IL Is Believed the Wilson and Bar
row Detaehments Have Been
Massacred by Matabeles.
Agents Of the Bechaunaland Company
Telegraph There Is Little Hope
For Their Safety.
Their Condition Was Critical When
Major Forbes Left the Shau-
gani District.

LoNDoN, Dec. s9.-There seems to be
little hope OF the safety of the two Brit
ish detachments, commanded respec-
lively by Lieutenants Wilson and Bar
row, who are reported to have been
massacred by the Matabeles.
Captain Wilson is the officer of the
Bechuanaland company, and the agents
ct Cape Town have telegraphed that
little hope rem aims of the safety OF the
party.
The absence of news from the Wilson
and Barrow columns, and the fact that
when Major Forbes left the .Shangani
district the Wilson detachment was, be-
yond any doubt, in critical position
causes the general belief that one or
more of the detachments have met with
disaster.

SOMETHING BEYOND.
Believed the senate Committee win @
Deeper Into the Hawaiian Business.

S4mMhG
Deeper Into the Hawaiian Business.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-The air Of
mystery assumed by the senate commit
tee on foreign relations in the Hawaiian
investigation gives the impression that
Senator Morgan's resolution, under
which the inquiry is held, is only cloak
under which is held more important
inquiry into our diplomatic relations
with those islands. There is reason to
believe that while presumably the pres
ent question for information bearing
upon the conduct of Stevens and Blount
there will be an effort at the same time
to obtain any information which will,
in the first place, prove the capability
of the islands for self government, and
in the second, the desirability or other
wise Of annexing these islands at some
time in the future.
Believes In Annexation.
1t is understood perfectly by members
of the committee who might have this
in view that there is no hope of annex
ing the islands under the present admin
istration, but those who favor this dis
position of the little kingdom do not in
tend to be swerved from their purpose
by the fact that one administration is
opposed to this course. Senator Morgan,
who is chairman of the committee, has
been scrupulously careful about express
ing opinions upon the Hawaiian ques-
ton, manifesting disposition to do or
say nothing which would appear extra
judicial, but he is known to be firm
believer in the wisdom of attaching the
islands to this country as a part
OF it, just as Alaska is at
present attached, and the fact that he
has very recently introduced bill in the
senate providing form of government
for any acquired territory, lends plausi-
bility to the supposition that he is look
ing forward to possibilities far beyond
anything included in the resolution
under which the committee is author
lied to conduct its present hearing.
There is
Plausible Explanation
of the origin of the bill, and without
some end like. the acquisition of Hawaii
for its existence. Those who know Nor
gan best say he is not the man to attempt
to secure legislation to fit sup
position. It would appear probable that
when the committee reports, it will, so
far as Mr.. Morgan can direct the char
acter of the report, smooth over the
events with which they were concerned
and declare that closed era.
In the meantime Minister Thurston.
who is now in Hawaii, will have been
heard from as to the capacity of the
present government for temporarily
managing the affairs of the islands, and
his information with the corroborating
testimony which the committee will be
able to get together in the meantime,
may have an important bearing upon
the future of the committees investiga-
tions.

Sarah Siddon's Emotional Power.
