TIE Hawalian treaty.

WAsHINGToN, p. g., December 81
Friends of the Hawaiian annexation
continue using the efforts Of the Eu-
ropean powers to cut up China as an
argument in favor OF the treaty. Sem
ator White, one OF the most active op-
ponents OF the treaty, however, is not
dismayed. He said: 1.-THE sugar
trust would prefer to see annexation
than have the present treaty abrogated.
With Hawaii as an entering wedge,
Cuba might be annexed later. With
Hawaii and Cuba both In possession,
the U. s. with this powerful corpora.
ton controlling the chief product Of
both islands would wallow in wealth
It's present vastness would be insig-
niicant by comparison.
