when the senate met today. Senator
TurDie presented set of resolutions
adopted by the legislature of Ohio pro-
testing against the Russian eXtraditioE
treaty. Senator Hill then offered his
resolution directing the bribery investi-
eating committee to throw open its
doors to the public. It went over until
tomorrow. Senator Turpie offered a
resolution declaring that it was no
longer 10 the interest of the United
States to continue the treaty with Rus

served upon the emperor of Russia that
the United States purposes to telmi-
nate that treaty at the expiration of six
months, the time required to be given

the committee on foreign affairs. reso-
luton with unanimous recommends
ton that it pass. a substitute for the
Hawaiian resolution reported some
months ago. 1t made no reference to
annexation, aud was as follows:
''Resolved by the senate of the United
States, That of right it belongs wholly
to the people of Hawaii to establish and
maintain their own form of govern.
ment, and domestic policy; that the
United States ought not in any way to
interfere herewith. but interference in
the political affairs of this island by
any other government will be regarded
as an act unfriend!y to the United
States.''

meet his approval, although he would
not vote against it. Believing that this

pensatien therefor, all the coal beds OF
