The Administrator and Hawaii.

From the New York Press.
The action of the Cleveland Adminstra-
ton with respect to Hawaiian annexation
has been entirely indefensible. The arbi
trary withdrawal of the perfectly fair and
satisfactory treaty, just as the Senate was
about to take 1t up for ratification, leopard
ICES American rights. BY postponing an
nexation indefinitely Mr.. Cleveland has
practically invited an outbreak OF the dis
orderly elements of Hawaii which may
easily result i'm bloodshed and the destruc-
ton of property, and which, If it should
occur, will give Great Britain an oppor-
tunity to interfere actively in the matter
on the ground that British interests are
endangered.
The pretense of sending one or more
Commissioners to Honolulu TO Investigate"
the present state of affairs apparently indi-
Gates the purpose of Mr.. Cleveland to defeat
annexation altogether if any sort of pre-
text can be trumped up against it. The
facts in regard to the Hawaiian revolution
were clearly understood. All the informa-
ton needed was in the possession of the
United States Government when Mr.. Cleve-
land was inaugurated. The appointment
of Representative Blount OF Georgia,
bitter partisan Democrat, who is known to
be opposed to annexation, as the chairman
of the Investigating" Commission, if in
deed he is not to be the sole Commissioner,
adds to the evidence that Mr.. Cleveland
means to prevent annexation If he can.
The American people have pronounced
in favor of the annexation of Hawaii i'm I'M
mistakable terms. The Importance of
Hawaii as strategical defense of our Paci-
fic coast and coaling station for our Pacific
commerce is appreciated by all intelligent
and patriotic Americans. To refuse the
petition of the Hawaiians for free and
civilized government will he to betray the
cause OF human liberty. 1t will be an adj
mission on the part Of Grover Cleveland
that he prefers monarchy to republicanism
as principle of government; that he would
rather see Hawaii made British fortress
than an American stronghold.

One Form of city charity.

A grocer complains bitterly because
wealthy patrons of his establishments
send tramps and paupers there with
notes saying, Mr.. B., give this man a
pound Of crackers and box of sardines,"
or the bearer would like four bundles
OF kindling and q pound of coffee"
The applicants get the stuff because the
grocer wants to retain the custom of
those W DO send them and who have not
the slightest intention Of paying for
goods thus given away. Its pretty
cheap charity for these rich people to en-
gage in says he, but my experience is
that it hurts a rich man worse to give
up q dollar than it does a poor man.

The Snow Storm.

The snow storm that threatened Candle
mas Day made itself felt yesterday. The
mercury was low early in the morning,
touching 50 at s o'clock, but by IL o clock
it had risen to 14o and many persons
thought the weather bureau predictions
might be verified, and that the tempera-
ture would go higher and rain follow.
Instead of that, the mercury dropped
rapidly. About four inches of snow fell
but it was light. The noon trains from
the east were little delayed but those
from the west were about on time.
A large feet of coasters and other YES
sells made harbor here. The atmosphere
was so thick in the harbor one could see
but short distance ahead.
The horse cars ran with four horses
and the plows kept steadily at work.
Advices received here report that the
schooner Thomas W. Hyde of Bath, from
Pensacola for Baltimore, was found by

THE WARD LINES.
The Democratic Scheme Of Reapportion-
ment is Completed-Some of the Changes
Understood to Have Been Made.

Yesterday afternoon the city govern
ment committee on Ward lines held its
final session, and completed the report
which the Democratic members have
fixed up in causus. Complete secrecy
was maintained in regard to the nat
of the divisions, but it is understood that
the scheme is as follows: The islands
are to be in Ward 1, the line of which will
start on the Eastern Promenade and run
westward along Congress street to India,
and down India to the harbor.
The line of Ward begins also on the
Eastern Promenade and (being at this
point the dividing line from Ward y runs
along Congress street to Smith, and down
Smith to Back Bay.
Ward will run across the city and will
be bounded on the east by Smith and
India streets, and on the west by line
beginning at the harbor and running up
Moulton and Exchange streets to Con-
gress, around the city building and back
to Congress street again, up Congress to
Pearl, and down Pearl to Back Bay.
The easterly line of Ward 4 will be
Identical with the westerly line of Ward
3. The westerly line of Ward 4 starts on
the harbor front and runs up small lane
between the Cousens & Tomlinson and
the Davis g. Baxter stores, cuts across
the two heater pieces at Gorham's corner
and goes straight up South street to Free,
up Free to Oak, up Oak to- Congress-
down Congress to Casco, down Casco to
Cumberland, up Cumberland to Hanover,
and straight down Hanover to Back Bay.
This Is also the easterly line of Ward 5,
which is bounded westerly by line be-
ginning on the harbor at the foot of
State, and running straight through old
and new State streets to the Oaks and the
Deering line.
The space left west of State street is
cut into two Wards by a line running up
Pine to Thomas street, down Thomas
to Spring, up Spring to Vaughan, down
Vaughan to Danforth and straight out
Danforth to the city limits. The Ward
on the harbor side is numbered 6, and
that towards Union Station, Z.
1t is understood that this division is
arranged with the idea Of giving the
Democrats a sure plurality in both
branches of the city government.
The report will be made to the city
government Monday evening. If adopted
there, it will go to the people for their
approval.
