Der Of Commerce to cancel the reciprOc-
ity treaty with the United States,
which, he claimed, was already defeat
ed by the Mckinley bill
Mr.. Powell further said both the Ca
madam government and people we're
anxious 70 enter into political and trade
relations with Hawaii, and be hoped
negotiations In that direction
WOULD SOON BE OPENED.
Members OF the Chamber OF Com
merce state that Mr.. Powell has init
mated privately that such negotiations
would find the favor and support of
England II necessary. When asked II

members of the native society admit its
truth, but deny the correctness of the
inscription as given.
