THE TREATY WITHDRAWN.
President Cleveland Asks the Senate to
Return the Hawaiian Treaty.

Return the Hawaiian Treaty.
WASHINGTON, ID. C., March 9.-Pres-
ident Cleveland's first executive cOmmu-
nication TO the Senate came this after
noon, and proved 10 be a surprise, not
only to Republicans, but TO many Dem
Ocrats as well. The commrrs5atiAn OF
President Cleveland withdrew Nthe
treaty with Hawaii, which was sent to
the Senate few weeks ago by the Pres
ident. The message was short, simply
requesting the Senate to transmit to the
executive the proposed treaty with
Hawaii The message was received,
without comment on the floor Of the
Senate.
Republican Senators regard this ac-
ton OF the President as in line with the
cohrse pursued by Mr.. Cleveland in
Withdrawing the Nicaragua treaty sent
to the Senate by Mr.. Arthur In the clo-
sing days OF his administration. Depat7
cratic Senators look upon the act fv0nt
a two-fOd point of view. some taxing
the ground that it shows Mr.. Cleveland
to be against annexation or American
domination of any sort in the Hawaiian
Islands, while others hold that he will
send in another treaty more to his lik
ing,
h The nominations sent In to-day were
received and laid over, inasmuch as
I they could not be referred until the
committees have been organized. IL
was also agreed that nothing but Sen
atorial business should be transacted
during this extra session, and hereafter
no attempt viii be made in open Senate
70 take up any business other than that
which clearly relates only to the func-
tiOns Of the Senate.
II Is understood that the reason for
the withdrawal Of the treaty by Presi-
dent Cleveland Is because be is opposed
to the treaty in its present form.
Whether or not he will favor the max
ing OF another treaty and whether it
viii be an annexation treaty or not can
not be said on authority at this time but
a gentleman who has talked with the
President on the subject said this after
noon that another treaty would be
made. 1t Is intimated that the Presi-
dent will suggest either by message or
personally to Senators. that commit
tee be appointed to visit the Hawaiian
Islands this year during the interval
between the Adjournment Of the special
session Of th6 senate and the reconyen-
ing Of the next Congress.

WASHINGTON, March 9.--TheIe was
q fresh rush of West VirginianS TO town
to-day, good many Of them coming
merely as sight-seers and with no per-
sonal axes to grind in the way OF office
seeking.
OF course all have friends whom they
wish to see comfortably placed, and for
whom they will put in good word
whenever they find an opportunity OF
doing so. Among those who came were
Secretary Of State Ohley, J. L. Watson,
Stewart Walker, c. j. Lavelle, OF
Uniontown; Sam MathesOn, Of Charles
ton; Geo. Good, Of BraxtOn county; f..
Hays, Of Gilmer county; j. &. Craw-
ford, OF Cameron, and II. G. Henderson,
OF WrHamstown. Ex-Governor Flem-
ing and Gen. C. c. Watts are also here.
Governor MacCorkle will arrive here in
the morning, and many others are ex-
pected late tonight and in the morn
ing.
Arrangements have been made for the
entire West Virginia contingent ia the
city TO call on the President at the
White House at 10 o'clock in the morn7
ing and formally pay their respects TO
him. Congressman Wilson will head
the delegation and make the intreduc-
tions TO the President.
Ii has not yet developed just what
place Mr. Ohley will try TO get. Gov.
MacCOrkle'S coming visit is understood
TO be largely for the purpose Of aiding
the late Secretary Of State in his cam
paign for federal position.
Mr.. Jepson to-day received news that
was very gratifying to him and that
gave him fresh encouragement in his
candidacy for the United States Treas
urerShip. II was TO the effect that Mr..

was Treasurer when Mr.. Cleveland was
in before, had decided not to again be
q candidate and that some Of those who
intended 90 support him would now
turn i'm and help Mr.. JepSOn.
