New York, Dec. 23.-The Tribune's
Washington special says: Senator
Hale, who is expected to lead the OPP
position to the Cuban resolutions in the
Senate. is preparing for the conflict he

QUARANTINE ResTRIcIl0Ms
Between the United States and Canada Under
going Necessary Changes.

Washington, Dec 22.-Hon. Sidney
Fisher, minister of agriculture for the
Dominion Of Canada, and Duncan Nc
Eachran left for Montreal, this after
noon. Just before his departure Mr..
Fisher had a conference with Secretary
Morton Of the agricultural department.
To a reporter for the United Asso-
oiated Presses, Mr.. Fisher expressed
himself as very well satisfied with the
results Of the high service. He said:
= The agreement that Secretary Morton
and l have reached for the modifica-
ton of quarantine restrictions imposed
by the governments of the two cOun-
tries upon the shipment OF cattle
through each others domain will have
to be submitted by me to the council OF
ministers in Ottawa before 1t can be
promulgated or its provisions made
public. In our spheres we, as ministers.
are not SO independent as your secre-
taries. The entire body of the council
must pass upon and approve the de-
tails OF the executive order before 1t
can be made effective"
Does the agreement cover the mat
ter of transportation of cattle into or
through the other country for the for
eign trade. as well as the quarantine
regulations?" was asked.
mo, it does not" Mr.. Fisher replied.
That is a matter so entirely within
the control of each government, being
a matter of local policy and subject to
legislative action, that do not care to
discuss it. but refer you to Secretary
Morton for any information regarding
it. The occasion for the agreement we
have reached. grew out of the changed
conditions that now exist. When
pleuro- pneumonia afflicted the cattle
of the United States and Canada. both
countries established strict quarantine
regulations.
These have remained in force, while
the disease has entirely disappeared
and they have proved a source Of rita
ton to shippers. 1t seemed impossible
to change them by correspondence. ana
it occurred to me that mutually sat-
isfactory arrangement could be reached
by a conference, face to face. and the
issue of the conferences between Sec
rotary Morton and myself has proved
that l was right" FL

POLO NOTES.

Boston Herald: Pitcher Fred Klo-
bedanz of the Boston Base Ball Club
officiates as ticket collector in the Fall
River rink The Maine league
has gobbled up about all the available
talent in these parts. and is hungry
for more. Rockland closed,
last week, with it's 18th victory in II
games. Portland is second, Lewiston
third, while Augusta and Bath are
having battle for last place.
The Bath Times says Of J. Moneys
first appearance in that city: He is
a good juggler, fast skater and heady
player and secured IL out of the 16
rushes and Gagged the ball five times
in the first period. He and Tarrant
played together in fine style. and they
received hearty applause. In the first
period they made double plays which
resulted in nine goals for Bath. 1t was
pretty work. When they won the first
goal there was rumble and roar of
applause that made the rink tremble.
1t was the enthusiasm that had been
| accommodating for several weeks. The
applause continued for some mo-
ments.'
| Portland Argus: The greatest feather
in the caps of the Lewistons was placed
there last Friday night, when they de-
feated the apparently invincible leaders
in the most exciting game in the his
tory of the league. 1t was the first
extra inning game that has been played
in this league and was witnessed by a
large number of spectators, who nearly
went wild over the great playing of
| their team. The Rocklands. as usual
had much criticism to make concerning
the referee. They even go so far as tC
state that his decision deprived them OF
the game. From a gentleman who saw
the game in question. the writer learned
that the Rocklands were beaten fan
and square and that the game was wor
| on it's merits.

ANTI-ANNExATION.
A Strong League SAID 10 Be- Forming
in the Hawaiian Islands
To Blsek All Attempts ier Annexation with
ihe Uaiied siaiss.

Honolulu. Dec. 15. via San Francisco
Dec. 23.-In the next two weeks q
powerful anti-annexatiOn league will be
launched in this city, and branches
will be organized all over the Island. II
will have millions of money behind it.
and will go in for an aggressive cam.
paign. Its chief promoters are some OF
the wealthiest and most influential
planters.
Paul Isenberg, senior. the millionaire
merchant, planter and shipowner. who
recently returned from Germany, is ut
the head Of the movement. His plat
form contemplated full support for the
republic of Hawaii. but was upon an
nexation. The arguments are: First,
that no benefit will accrue to Hawaii
through political Incorporation with the
limited States, and second, annexation
will put an end to contract labor. which
will mean loss if not ruin to the
planters.
Numerous other items Of detail will
be included in the argument to be pro-
mulgated. The danger of being over
run by the American tramp element
as well as the effects of American laws
upon local conditions. will be pointed
out. The natives will be told that I'M
der the government Of the United States
he will be relegated to the social and
political level of the negro.
A number of men in the list have
been favorable to the cause of the late
monarchy. Having given up all hopes
of restoration, they espouse the cause
| of the republic against annexation as
,.~: g 1ooA nrS n n
not hesitate to say that their opposition
is a question Of dollars and cents.
They don't believe the reciprocity
| treaty would be abrogated by the
United. and they desire to cling to the
last to the contract labor system. which
they say has made the sugar industry
in the islands.
OF course the annexation party will
take a strong hand against this powerful
| opposition. The native population will pc
catered with both factions as practically
"balance of power. This element will
divide. The new movement will also split
the plantation influence which. however,
has never been organized politically.
The great houses of Brewer 4 Co.. cas-
tie & Cooke. Hall & Son; Levers 4
Schmidt & Sons. Wilder L. Co. McChes-
| ney & Son and others. nearly all owners
and agents for plantations have been IN
| The banking houses of Bishop & CO. and
the Hawaiian Safe Deposit Co will cast
their influence with this element.
A part of the work of the anti-annex-
alton league will be to organize the en-
pioyes of it's chief promoters As many
names as possible will be secured. Then
the ultimate idea presents itself. 1t is
presumed that when the annexation
question comes up at Washington in the
spring. Congress will send a commission
| to Honolulu to report on the situation:
| The league will then present its roll
will endeavor to show that annexation Is
not wanted. In the meantime the annex
alton forces are growing stronger.

GREATER CENTRAL AMERICA.
The New Republics Envoy Formally Received
by President Cleveland.

Washington, Dec. 23.-President
Cleveland. this afternoon, formally
recognized new greater republic of
Central America. composed of Saliva
dor. Nicaragua, and Honduras. by re-
ceiving in the East room of the En-
ecutive Mansion the envoy of the
Diet of the new government. J. d.
Rodriguez. In the speech presenting
his credentials, the minister, Mr.. Rod
riguez, said:
Our firm convictions that the sem
timents I have expressed will find on
the part Of Your Excellency and of the
American nation the most complete
reciprocity, has induced us to solicit
the efficient intervention of Your Ex-
cellency to the end of bringing to a
happy termination one of the Ques-
tions which most interest the confed-
Grafton, by reason of the influence 1t
may exert upon the pacific develop
ments of it's great elements of wealth
and prosperity"
The President. in reply. said: Il
discern in the articles of association
from which the Diet derives it's powers,
step toward the closer union of the
entral American states in the interest
of the common defence and general
| welfare, and l welcome it as the pre-
cursor of other steps to be taken in the
same direction, which. it is hoped. may
eventually result in the consolidation
| of all the states of Central America
as one nation for all purposes of their
| foreign relations and intercourse"
The Presidents expressed hope
that the new republic would soon in
| clude Costa Rica and Guatemala. the
two richest and most progressive of
| the isthmian countries is expected to
have considerable weight in expedfting
their adherence to the new arrange
| ments. The governments of both these
governments are favorably disposed
towards the union, but are prevented
| by their constitutions from joining it
without the full approval of their
Legislatures, which will probably be
secured in a few months.
The Diet of the new greater republic.
which met in Amapala, Salvador. last
June, remaining there a year, will be
transferred to the capital of one of the
old countries, next June, and in turn
to the capital of each of the others for
year. 1t has the exclusive control
Of the foreign relations Of it's parti-
cipants and questions arising between
them. It's constitution provides for
dropping the, word Greater" from its
title when Joined by Guatemala and
