NO GUARANTEE TO JAPAN.
Sherman Interviewed on the Hawaii
an Difficulties.
LOOKING TO COMMERCIAL TREATIES
The United states VIII Pave the
Way for Advances From the
European Nations.

Washington, August 6.--secretary Sher-
man returned to the city this afternoon
from brief rest OF two weeks Mt ANA
gansett L. l. He appears refreshed and
improved by his brief respite at the
ocean.
The secretary does not anticipate any
important developments in pending dipio-
matic questions while the president Is
away ON his vacation. He denies thc re-
cent statements from San Francisco that
Minister Sewall had Instructions to estab-
lish protectoratc over Hawaii III the
event the senate failed 70 ratify the an
nexaticn treaty.
When asked what tie minister's action
would be II some overt act was committed
by the Japanese, tho secretary said that
in that event Minister Sewall might raise
the American flag II he had special in
structions to that effect. As to whether
Mr.. Sewall has such instructions, Secre-
tary Sherman did not say.
Secretary Sherman said the United States
would lot guarantee to the carrying out
of the terms of arbitration between Hawaii
and Japan II the decision Of the arbitra-
tors was against the former. II the treaty
Of annexation is ratified before the arbi-
tratlon is concluded, then the arbitration
failed the secretary explained. He lett
the inference that the matter Of Japan
claims against Hawaii might then be
special subject OF legislation by congress.
Secretary Sherman emphatically denied
that he had any intention Of resigning.

BROWN UNIVERSITIES DEFENSE.
Congressman walker Excuses An
drcws' Forced Resignation.

drewA'
Boston, Mass, August 6.--Congressman
Joseph NJ. Walker of Worcester has given
the Associated Press an open letter which
has a bearing On the controversy between
the faculty Of Brown university and the
corporation OF the institution OF when MT
Walker is member over the resignation
OF President Andrews. He calls 1t re
ply TO certain members Of the faculty OIL
Brown university by one OF the corporal
ors," and says:
.rhe corporation deeply regrets that any
member of the faculty should have felt 1t
his duty to complicate very delicate situ-
alton growing out of the wide divergence
OF views between 1t and the public teach
ings OF It's president as to what Is trutn,
and to his respective duties and RESPONSE
bilities, involving the attitude of the uni

ton as at the very foundation OF morality.
The corporation CT Brown university now,
as In tho past, administers its affairs In the
broad spirit OF liberality in which 1t was
founded as 10 both the beliefs and teach
ings OF it's president and professors, but
IL can not tolerate the alienation Of the
great trust committed to its hands in SUP
port OF those who would subvert doctrines
and beliefs, its founders, the present cor
poration and all right thinking men in the
1.-THE opinion of our corporation was not
unknown TO President Andrews. Either the
corporation has or 1t has not some degree
of responsibility for its representatives In
its president and professors in the institu-
ton.
THAT 1t is in nowise responsible for their
sayings and doings will not be asserted,
and II 1t has anw responsibility whatever,
the question arises, could its action have
been any more conservative? Certainly Mr..
E. Benjamin Andrews has an undoubted
right to speak his mind without offense
to or criticism by our corporation. But this
right inalienable in Mr.. Andrews, does
not dissolve the oath taken by the fellows
and trustees nor justify nor excuse the
cofporsi,on from taking cognizance OF
what the mind and speech OF the president
Of Brown university is, as to the effect
upon tho university. its friends or the
public.
.'The only safe source Of income to q
university is mainly from its invested
funds Brown can not long prosper or even
exist as President Andrews has carried 1t,
himself being judge.

rtnh Mines ordered Closed.

Park City, Utah, August 6,-superin-
tendent Chambers OF the Ontario and Daily
mines today received telegram from New
York to close down both mines at once,
owing TO The recent decline in silver. These
are two of the largest silver mines in the

men. The Ontario mine is one OF the
grolteet producers in the country and has
been in active operation for twenty years
