HAWAII RECOGNIZED.
Cleveland CongratuIates President
Dole Of the New Republic.


WASHINGTON, Aug. IA letter u con-
graduation and greeting from President
Cleveland In the name OF the United
States Is on the way from Washington to
President Dole of the Hawaiian Republic.
The recognition OF the new repub-
lie was finally decided upon this
week and the message was framed and
mailed on yesterday through the regular
channels. Although the customary
secrecy which attends diplomatic matters
has surrounded the relations OF the
United States with the Hawaiian repub-
lie since that country assumed its
new form of government, 1t is learned on
the best authority that there never has
been any doubt of Cleveland's course in
the matter and OF his recognition of the
new government of Hawaii as
de facto government. A few
days ago letter was received
from President Dole conveying the formal
announcement of the proclamation of the
Republic and the Inauguration of the
new government. This letter was laid
before the cabinet and has been
under consideration while the House
committee on foreign affairs was debating
whether 1t should report resolution for
recognition.

VETERANS met.
First Rhode Island Cavalry at Rocky
Point Today.

There was another reunion of veterans
at Rocky Point today. This time it was
the members OF First Rhode Island Caval-
ry Veteran Association, who met
and talked over the events of days
long since gone by. This regiment
was recruited in the fall of 81, and went
to the front in the March following. At
the end of the term of enlistment its MEM
bers re-enlisted. In '65 the men we're
mustered out. The regiment was in the
department Of the Potomac, and partici-
pated during its service in SO engagements,
including the battle of Cedar Creek, when
Sheridan made his famous ride. The men
saw very active service, and there were
countless incidents for subjects of con-
versation at today's reunion.
The veterans met In Providence and
left the city on the 10 o'clock boat for
Rocky Point. Previous to their departure
they held short street parade. A line
was formed on Exchange place. Headed
by q drum corps from tie Mt. Hope tand
and under the command of Emmons ID.
Guild, the president of the associa-
tion, they marched through Ex-
change street, mp Weybosset, through
Custom House and down Dyer
to the Continental wharf where the boat
was taken. There were about fifty men
in line. The party was augmented at the
wharf by the relatives and friends of the
veterans, and about ons hundred persons
enjoyed the dinner and exercises at the
Point.
At the business meeting the reports of
Secretary Gardiner and Treasurer Bliss
were presented and officers were elected
for the ensuing year.
The retiring president, Mr.. Guild, pre-
sented the association with handsome
gavel. The stick was cut from an oak
tree before the breastworks at Kelley's
Ford, Virginia, March II, 1862. The mall
let-head was mounted with silver band.
Three papers were read. One dwelt on
"Incidents of Pope's Campaign" and wax
written by James d. Gage, the adjutant
general of Nebraska. The paper was
read by Secretary Gardiner. The other
papers were on the subjects "What
Remember of the Battle of Cedar Noun
tain y and "Our Trip to Washington and
the Shenandoah Valley" Both papers
were by c. II. Bachelor. The papers were
full OF interest and drew forth much sp-
plauye.
Ar ong those at the reunion were David
s. Ray, past department commander of
the q. A. r., and Sylvester Chase of
Douglas, who was bugler of Company q,
and is the oldest of the veterans. The
regimental officers present were Captain
George n. Bliss, Captain Capron, Lieuten-
ant A. g. Willis, Lieutent Richard Bur-
CESS, Surgeon Albert Utter and Chaplain

Been Reached on Tariff Bill

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.The tariff con-
rrees remained In session until few
inutes past ~ o'clock today and
hen they adjourned the Senate con-
rres proceeded to the Presidents room
nd there held private consultation free
om interference or interruption.
A report soon gained circulation which
bmpletely upset the reports circulated
krlier In the day as the latter story was
b the effect that an agreement had
cen absolutely arrived at and that it was
o the lines of tho understanding which
|as reached last night, that is, that iron
re should be ms do free, coal made duti-
BILE at 40 cents per ton and that the COM
romise sugar schedule should stand.
The indications point to the verifica-
lon of this latter report.
The Republican members OF the con-
crence had not, at 1890, received any
primal notification to attend a meeting,
ut they had received an intimation
hat q full conference would be held

onsultation with the leaders on that side
y the chamber apparently with the view
f preparing themselves for the final con-
ict which they believe to be at hand.
Representative McMillin, one OF the
House conferrees, stated that since the
rst meeting today he believed an
kgreement was In sight; coal
Ind iron ore, he added, had
bot yet been settled, but the main fea-
lures of the bill would be agreed on SO
hat the Republicans could be called
IN tomorrow. During the recess OF
he conferrees there were conferences
between leading conservative Senators
Ind the impression prevailed that the
schedules were being con-
|idered.
A copy of the tariff bill, which had
been IN the hands of Senators Gorman,
Vest and Jones, was taken into
mother room where Senators German
Brice and Murphy held consultation.
senator Smith was sent for, but was not
about the Capitol.
Al the noon recess ofthe tariff confer
snce, ono OF the House conferrees stated
hat reports whish-~- hsds-been in
of Presidential inter-
'erencss with the prospective agreement
effected yesterday we're not warranted.
The intimation was made however. that
rood many minor obstacles had been en-
today.
