JOKE Is ON GRESHAM.
Ihurston FOrestalled the Action OF
State Department.


State Department.
WASHINGTON, April Is The belief
is growing that in the little rupture
with Secretary Gresham, Minister
ThurstOn will come out first best. The
incident is causing deal of talk here.
It is a popular theme in the diplo.
matte corps, and the attaches of the
foreign Office, as the clerks of the
State Department are wont to call
themselves, are discussing it in whis-
pers.
In fact, pretty much everybody is
talking about it more or less except
Secretary Gresham. He never touches
the subject himself. Those around
him arg afraid to speak of it; and
others have too kindly feeling for
the Judge to mention it.
1t is understood that Mr.. Thurston
learned in some way that the request
for his recall had not been sent on the
date indicated in the first publication,
and that therefore it could not leave
the country until the departure of the
next steamer.
On consulting his time tables he
discovered that he could reach San
Francisco in time for the same steam
er. This he did, and therefore arrived
in Honolulu as quickly as Secretary
Gresham's request for his recall.
It is a simple thing to understand
that by placing his resignation in the
hands of the Hawaiian Government
at once he could forestall the receipt
of the request for his recall. BY doing
this he would play a pretty little
trick on the Secretary of State.
Officially the State Department au-
thorities profess Indifference to Thurs.
toms fine work.
One of the Secretaries was asked to-
day what would be the probable pro-
cedure in the event of Thurston's hav-
ing fOrestalled the request. He said:
"If Thurston's resignation was placed
in the hands Of the Hawaiian Govern
ment before our request, we will
doubtless receive through the Hawaii
an charge d'a1fairs in this city noti-
fcation that Thurston has resigned
and that somebody else will doubt
less be appointed. 1t is probable that
we will receive this some time before
the acknowledgment of the request
for Thurston's recall.
"UpOn the receipt Of that notifica-
ton we will acknowledge it and say
something to the effect that if the
Hawaiian Government is willing to
accept Thurston's resignation, all
right; that it matters little to us
whether Thurston resigns or is recall
ed. He will have ceased to be Minis
ter to this country, and that is all we
want"

One remark dropped by the lady sug-
gested a new idea to the reporter. She
was speaking Of the different breakfast
cereal foods and wondered why all of
the rolled oats used in this part Of tIhe
country had to be shipped from the east
at an expense to the consumer of cents
per pound, while the same article In the
East can be purchased at ~ cents"
With many bushels of oats grown in

1t nctpay some enterprislng business man
TO get few rollers and make rolled cats
at home?
There would certainly be good market
