MEANING OF MoRGAN's COURSE.

Senate Committee Oh Foreign Affairs
still Hoping for annexation.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 28.-The air
of mystery assumed by the Senate COM
mittee on foreign relations in its Hawai-
ian investigation gives the impression
that Morgan's resolution, under which
the inquiry is held, is merely cloak for
much more important inquiry than as
20 the alleged irreguiarity of our diplo-
matte relations with those islands.
There is reason for believing that while
presumably the present question is for
information bearing upon the conduct
of Stevers and BlOunt, there will
be an effort at the same time
to obtain any information which will
prove the CapahiIity Of the islands for
seil-gOvernment and the desira bility or
otherwise Of anneXing these islands at
some time IN the future. 1t is under
stood perfectly by members of the COM
mittee who might have these points in
view that there is no hope of anneXing
the islands under the present admins
tration, but those who favor this dispo-
sition Of the little kingdom do not in
tend to be swerved from their purpose
by the TACT that one administration is
opposed to this course.
Senator Morgan, who is chairman of
t3:c committee, has been scrupulously
careful about expressing opinions upon
the Hawaiian question, manIi eStlng a
disposition to do or say nothing which
would appear extra judicial, but he is
known to be firm believer in the wis
dom Of attaching the islands to this
country as part Of it, just as Alaska IS
at present attached, and the fact that
lie has very recently introduced
bill in the Senate providing a
form Of government for any. &C
Quired territory lends plausibility
to the supposition that he is
looking forward to possibilities lar De-
yond anything included in the resolu-
ton under which the committee is au-
thOriZed to conduct It's present hearing.
This IS q plausible explanation of the
origin OF the bill, and without some end
like the acquisition Of Hawaii in view it
is difficult 10 find any reason for its ex-
istence Those who know Mr.. Morgan
best say that he is not the man to at
tempt TO secure legislation that would
lit a suppOSltlOn.
1t would appear probable that when
the committee reports II will, SO far as
Mr.. Morgan can direct the character 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 Ha-
wall. 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 commit
tees investigations.

Douglas County Game Warden Seizes
900 Pounds of Venison.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Dec. 27.-Dep-
uty Game Warden A. l.. Lord, of White
Birch, this county, is following up the
law-breaking hunters who kill deer out
of season with such vigor and persist
ence that he has earned the enmity of
the many lawless pot-hunters who
abound in his domain. Last Sunday
Lord made coup by Selling
some 900 pounds of venison which
had been killed by some hunters
from Cleveland, 0. They had left the
state and made arrangements before
they went to have the game follow them
by express, but Lord bounced upon it
and sold it at auction. So strong is the
feeling among the poaching hunters
against him that at least two have
threatened to kill him on sight Lord
is half-breed Indian and says "Thac;'
all right; | am pretty good shot my
self" His only reason for accepting
the Office was desire to protect the
game from destruction, and he proposes
to do it at all hazards.

RETIRES TO PRIVATE LIFE.

On the Supreme Bench.

vi UiiS QUIZ 6ll6 D6lGll.
MADISON, Wis, Dec. 29.-Chief Justice
William Penn Lyon to-day babe fare
well to the supreme court of Wisconsin
after a continuous service Of twenty
two years. Justice Lyon became q
member of the supreme court in 1871,
being appointed by Gov. Fairchild to
fill the vacancy caused by the death Of
Justice Byron Paine. The unexpired
term Of Justice Paine expired one year
from the following January, but Gov
Fairchild's choice of q successor to the
deceased Justice was endorsed by the
people at the polls on the following
April, and Justice Lyon was reelected
for the full term, and vas successfully
reelected in 1877 for 4 six-year term,
and in 1888 for ten years. The people
of Wisconsin have been uniformly hap
py in the constitution of their highest
tribunal, and there have been none
more deserving of confidence, if his
record on the bench and in private life
may be accepted as evidence, than the
p9an who to-day left the field of public
service for all time.
