LATE HAWAIIAN NEWS
Minister Thurston Says but Little Has
Come That is Not Known.
Matters to Come Before the Legisla-
ture-Mr. Hatch's Visit Not BE-
Heved to Be Official.

Mr.. Thurston, the Hawaiian minister,
received dispatches and newspapers from
Honolulu in today's mail. He informed
Star reporter who visited him at the le-
cation this afternoon that they contained
no information that had not already been
communicated to the public through press
dispatches from Hawaii by way of San
Francisco. There was no trouble or eX-
citement in the republic and no indica-
tions of any in the near future. He said
that there were several important meas
ures to be considered by the legislature at
it's meeting on the 1st of next month. One
matter that would come up was the enact
ment of land laws, and it was probable
that the land system which has been SO
successful in New Zealand would be in
troduced in the Hawaiian republic or If not
that. probably the system of this country
might be tried. In the former the settler
is given perpetual lease of the land. but
is prohibited from niortgaging or trans
ferring it.
The Cable Question.
The question of cable communication
with the mainland, Mr.. Thurston said,
would also come before the legislature,
with view to action that would enable
the government to act in the premises
without further legislation. The purpose
was to be prepared for future consin-
gencies, with respect to the opening o.
teleSraphfc communication with the world
In whatever shape they appeared.
Mr.. Hatch's Visit Not Official.
Mr.. Thurston said he had no knowledge
of the purpose of the visit of Mr.. Hatch,
minister Of foreign affairs. to this country.
but he was satisfied that he had no pres
ent intention OF coming to this city. At
least Mr.. Hatch had not notified him that
he was coming here, which he undoubtedly
would have done if such was his intention.
Mr. Thurston said he knew that Mr.. Hatch
had reached San Francisco, but beyond a
notification to that effect he had not heard
a word from him since his arrival. 1t was
not at all improbable, the minister said,
that Mr.. Hatch had come to the United
States on purely private business. At any
rate, il he had come on Official business
Mr.. Thurston said he was frank to admit
that he did not know what it was.

The Contest at st. Paul.
ST. PAUL, Minn., January 1S.-The re-
publican senatorial caucus will he held
tonight. Senator Washburn confidently ex-
poets a reelection, but the belief is gen.
eral that unless he wins on the first or
second ballot he will not win at all, and
the opposition appears to be confident Of
their ability to defeat him. The opposl-
ton to a caucus does not seem to be very
strong, and nearly all of the 142 republic
cans are expected to participate in 1T. Or
these Washburn counts on between 20 and
6S, but is conceded little more than 30.
Nelson claims over 5U, but he Is con-
ceded less than 35.
Comstock and McCleary will have from
10 to 20 EACH Much depends on whether
there will be a secret or an open ballot,
the so-called minor candidates resting their
hopes on the former. The contest has been
exciting and at times bitter.

F OR ARB RATIO N
A Memorial Presented to the President
From the British Parliament.
Ii is Signed by Many Notable Men
and Looks to a Treaty Between
the Two Countries.

The blue parlor of the White House was
the scene this afternoon OF simple cere-
mony, which may, however, bear an I'M
portant part In the history of Great Brit
ain ami the United States. 1T w'ls the
formal presentation to President Cleveland
of a memorial, signed by 3oi members OF
the British parliament, for a treaty OF ar
bitration between the two governments. 1t
was presented by Mr.. William Randall
Creamer, NJ. p, who came all the way
from London for that express purpose. He
was accompanied by Secretary Gresham,
who introduced him to the President. There
were 10 set speeches and Mr.. Creamer
performed his mission with no more ccre-
mony than it's character required.
Some Prominent Signatures.
The memorial has been kept a profound
secret UP to this time. NO one but the sign
ers having been allowed to see it, OF the
35l names appended to it, 232 are liberals,
II nationalists, 80 unionists and 21 con-
servatives. and the list includes nearly all
the leading members OF parliament. Prom
inent among them are Sir Richard E. Web
ster, Sir Stafford Northcote. Sir Charles
w. Dixie, Sir Il. Grattan Esmonde, Sir Geo
Baden Powell, MIR. Henry Labouchere, Mr..
Justin Mccarthy and Right Hon. c. P.
Villiers. 1t is stated as a remarkable fact
that THIS is the frSt document or the Kllu
that has received the Endorsement of a
member of the nationalists.
Text of the Memorial.
The text of the memorial Is as follows:
ITO the President and ConGress of the Uni
ted States of America:
I'm response to the resolution adopted by
Congress on April 4, 1890, the British house
of commons. supported in its decision by
Mr.. Gladstone. on June 16, 1898, unani-
nlously affirmed it's Willingness to cooper
ate with the government of the United
States in settling disputes between the two
countries by means of arbitration. The
undersigned members of the British parlia-
ment. while cordially thanking Congress
for having. by its resolution, given such an
impetus to the movement and called forth
such a response from our government, earn
estly hope that Congress will follow up it's
resolution. and crown it's desire by inviting
our government to join In framing a treaty
which shall bind the two nations TO refer to
arbitration disputes which diplomacy fails
to adjust. Should such a proposal be made
our heartiest efforts would be used In its
support, and we shall rejoice that the Uni
ted States of America and the United King
dom of Great Britain and Ireland have re-
solved to set such splendid example to the
other nations OF the world.

FREE SHIP BILL.
What Representative Fithian Is Will
ling 20 Accept to Pass 1t.

Representative Fithian. the father of the
free ship bill. says that II he cannot do
any better. he will accept as an amend
ment to this bill proposition that for ten
years foreign built ships shall be admitted
TO American registry only upon the build
ing in this country by the owners of such
foreign ships an equal number of vessels of
the same class to those admitted. 1t was
part of the program of the democrats Of
this session TO pass the Fithiau free ship
bill Fer some reason, however, they have
been afraid 10 place the measure before
the House. 1t is said that il this plan of
recurring a vessel to be biiilt here to cor
respond to every foreign built vessel adj
nIi.ted to registration, the measure will
have considerable republican support.
There IS no hope whatever for the original
bill for unconditional free registration.

THE JAPANESE TREATY.
1t fs Considered by the Senate In
Executive Session.

1t Is COnSlOcreu Dy the SENATE In
Executive Session.
Senator Morgan, in accordance with the
order of the Senate, moved an executive
session just before 1 o'clock today for the
purpose of considering the Japanese treaty.
He announced that the session would be
brief, and it is generally, anticipated that
the treaty will be adopted without opposi-
ton. The full text of the treaty has been
published.
Senator Morgan in executive session
made an extended speech explaining the
treaty and the necessity for its adoption.
He also explained at some length the
changes which the treaty would make, and
especially regarding consular courts
The executive session of the Senate end
ed without the confirmation of the treaty.
which was postponed until Friday of next
week.
The postponement was occasioned by
criticism of the portions of the treaty re-
latng to favored nations and abolishing
the consular courts for the trial of Ameri-
can offenders in Japan. Time was asked
for the further consideration of these Sug-
gestions and a possible formulation or
amendments.

Important Pension Decision.

John Reynolds, assistant secretary Of the
interior, has rendered decision that where
a soldier dies before final action on his
claim, his claim having been previously re-
jected, no power Of appeal lies by the at
torney of record till he shall have obtained
a power of attorney for continuance of
prosecution from the widow of such deceas-
ed claimant. The decision also establishes
the point that a claim for increase, where
the appellant was attorney, who after
ward filed claim in his behalf and this al
lowed, is not entitled to a fee. An attor-
neyship may be forfeited by contempt on
failure to respond to an order for medical
examination Of claimant.

FLORIDA CATTLE ABROAD.

We find the following item IN Miss.
issippi agricultural paper:
"Florida cattle are being shipped into
Mississippi to be fed on cottonseed meal
and hulls this winter for Northern mar
kets. This is due to the fact that our
feeders cannot find suitable stock at
home at fair prices and in sufficient
numbers, and cannot buy them as for
merly in Texas"
This corroborates what we haye pre-
vioIsly written about the possible profit
of stall-feeding cattle in Florida. If it
will pay to ship cattle to Mississippi to
fatten them on cottonseed meal and
hulls, why will 1t not pay to raise the
food here and fatter the cattle at home :?
We are of the opinion that 1t will, and
we expect to see the plan tried on an ex
tensive scale in the near future.
