INSURANCE RATES CO Up VISIT PRESIDENT MKNLEY
HAWAIIAN OFFICIALS DISCUSS
ANNEXATION WITH HIM.
Joint Resolution May BE Introduced
to Provide for Protectorate-Closer
Relations Favored by the President

WASHINGTON, March 26.--A mes
age from President Mckinley to Con-
gress advising Legislative steps look
ing toward closer political relations
with hawaii is cCusidered probable by
those who have been following closely
recent events here. A visit to the
White House yesterday, by appoint
ment, of Mr.. Hatch and General w. o.
Smith is believed to have direct con
nection with speedy action on the part
of the executive. There are now here
actively at work in the interest of an
neNation eX-Minister Thurstou, Gen
eral Smith and Judge iartwell, all
members of the Annexation Club of
Honolulu, in whose behalf they are
here. They have met many leading
men and have taken strong stand
for the island Republic and seem to
be growing more hopeful each day.
Sentiment favoring closer relations
is stronger in Congress, and a sugges-
ton from the President would likely
find a quick response. Most likely the
form this will take will be joint res
olution providing for "A protectorate
over the islands. This would meet with
very little of the opposition which
would be natural result of an at
tempt to secure the passage of an an
neXation resolution. Minister Hatch
said tonight that the visit to the Pres
ident was made by appointment, and
all the grounds We're gone over at
length. He said the President showed
great interest in the question and
seemed well informed concerning it,

HAGEN BUILDING.
Matter VIII BE Settled This After
noon.

At meeting of number of people
who are interested in the Hagey in
stitute, in the Chamber of Commerce
hall yesterday afternoon the matter of
erecting a large stone and brick build
ing in Honolulu was discussed. The
idea seemed to meet with general
favor. Messrs. Cowart and Kirkpat-
rick agreed to put into the project
every dollar which they had made
here. Alexander Young was still will
ing TO guarantee $4,000 of the money,
which would be about half the sum
required.
1t was decided to continue the meet
ing over day in order to give the
promoters of the scheme an opportun-
ity to see other parties who might be
induced 10 put their money into the
building. Mr.. Cowart stated today
that the matter would be all arranged
by this evening or the scheme would
be abandoned for the time being.
In case the building is a go the in
stitute will purchase lot on Fort
street opposite the Catholic church.

THE DEFUNCT UNION HAS BEEN
GIVEN A NEW LEASE OF LIFE.
End of Rate War that Has Ragged
Ruined Several Companies.

Fire insurance rates will be booming
again in few days. The defunct Pa
ciic Insurance Union has been resur-
rected and fully reorganized. The rate
war is at an end, and all companies in
the cofnpact-and there are only five
small ones that are not in will, after
April 18th, uphold the rates that pre-
vailed when the old Union was in full
swing and everything harmonious.
The news of the reorganization of
the Union was received in this city
yesterday by ID. +. Miles, Assistant
Manager of the Pacific Coast depart
ment, London and Lancashire Fire In
surance Company, who has been in the
city for a few days past on business.
Mr.. Miles was advised by the home
office of the reestablshment of uni
form rates, and also had a private let
ter giving the details of the new
compact The reorganization of the
Union was effected, only after several
weeks of hard work, on March 30th,
and at the time the Australia left San
Francisco the fact had not yet been
publicly announced. Only five small
companies refused to enter into the
new compact, which is said to be the
most binding and strongest ever eff
fected on the Coast. The president of
the new compact is Charles d. Haven,
and f. f. Morehart is t.-e new secre-
tary.
The reorganization of the insurance
Union puts an end to a gigantic rate
war that has been fiercely raging for
more than two years, and which sent
more than one weak company to the
wall. When the combine was broken
the agents in the Northwest attempt
ed to go it alone, but made a signal
failure of it. The rate war has played
havoc with dividends on insurance
stock, although those who had prop
ert.y to insure were Invariably big
gamers. The rate cutting was costly
| to the agents, too, for it was otter
necessary to sacrifice commissions in
order to get the business.
The property owners will be the
losers by the new condition of affairs
as rates will go away up. Policy hold
ers in Honolulu are directly effected
/ by the change, as the agents here are
controlled by the managers in Sar
Francisco.

There is one disagreeable feature in
the lease of the water lot given by the
Government to the Leilani Boat club.
\ condition has been inserted where
by the Government reserves the right
to cancel the lease at any time and
take possession of the lot. In case
the club has erected its boat house,
the Government agrees to purchase it
at reasonable price: The life of the
lease is but ten years anyway and
some of the Leilani boys say that it
would be foolish to erect a boat house
and run chances on the Government
annulling the lease on any day. We
have IA fairly good membership" said
Director j. II. Jones this morning.
and what members we have are thor
oughly good men. We are anxious to
and | am confident that there would
Inc no difficulty in getting the funds.
We had hard time securing the lease
and now that we have got it the con-
titions of the Government seem far
from satisfactory. However, we are
be that the club will determine wheth-
er no not to build its proposed $4,000
club house one the Government water
lot sometime this week.

Fitting OCCASION NOW
VIEWS OF GENERAL HARTWELL
ON HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS.
Islands Should BE Controlled by the
plies With Peculiar Force to Hawaii.

General A. S. Hartwell was recently
interviewed by the Washington Star.
In speaking of Hawaiian affairs, he
said:
IF the application of Hawaii for
political union with the United States,
which will soon be made in official
form, be referred to Congress for it's
action the President can call attention
to the conditions in Hawaii, which re-
quire action 10 be taken in order to
give any meaning to that part of the
platform of the Republican party
which reads:
1.-The Hawaiian Islands should be
controlled by the United States, and
no foreign power should be permitted
to interfere with them
THE doctrine so announced is moth
ing more nor less than the policy
which for many years has been enter
tanned by all parties and by many ad-
minstrations. The only way of en-
forcing this policy is for Congress, by
joint resolution, to admit Hawaii into
the Union on such terms as it thinks
proper.
"The obvious condition for the ad-
mission of Hawaii would be that no
Chinese be allowed to come from there
into this country, and that no Asatics
become citizens of the United States.
The n olicy of allowing no control
over Hawaii to be obtained by an for
eign power may be rendered abortive,
not only bv Hawaii ceding it's terri
tory to any of its rights as a sovereign
state to a foreign power, but by the
existence of conditions which involve
the indirect transfer of political pow
er. This insidious but sure merging
process will be accomplished unless
something equivalent to annexation in
telvenes, and that not by the act of
any foreign power, brt by the opera
tion of purel'- natural causes, against
which Hawaii, standing alone, is help
less. A fitting occasion for anneXing
Hawaii now presents itself and there
are sufficient and suitable reasons fol
such action.
Our policy toward Hawaii has been
dictated solely by the determination
that no foreign power shall gain a
vantage ground which may be used tc
our disadvantage or for any hostile
| purpose. In other words. the Monroe
doctrine applies with peculiar force tc
Hawaii.
ITO acquire the Hawaiian group il
the manner now practicable, which il
neither by conquest nor by purchase
shows no desire to enlarge our border:
or encroach upon any sovereign state
is in strict pursuance of the policy o
the Monroe doctrine, and manifestly
an exercise OF the right of Congress tC
provide for the common defense. TX
accomplish this result would end, one,
for all, the possibility o. Hawaii be
coming a base of supplies for a fore,
directed against our western coast.
"It is believed that the Presiden
will before long recommend to Con
gress the enactment of such measure
concerning Hawaii as will secure thes
national Objects"

Since the Jockey Club announced it's
determination to have races at Kapio-

the day following, there has been
activity among the horsemen on the
islands. Secretary Sam G.. Wilder has
been notified by letters of several
more running and trotting animals
that will be entered in the various
events. Already there is a good list
of runners, which is an excellent indi-
cation that the 81 race meet will be
rattling success. Trotters are not
lacking very much either. Some right
smart animals will be put into train
ing shortly. Secretary wilder states
that workmen will begin to put the
track into condition shortly. The
sports on Maui and Hawaii are getting
their horses in shape to bring to Ho-
nolulu shortly. 1t is said that there
will be some good runners among the
horses which Adolph Sprechels OF San
