SiOnerS the ceremony was ended.
Before the final signature of the doc
ument, the secretary of state was pre-
Sented a formal protest by the Jap
anese government through its legation
here against the cons sugnmation of the
agreement The protest is understood
to be based on apprehension that the
special treaties now existing between
Japan and Hawaii, under which the
japanese enjoy advantages, will be af-
fected injuriously by complete annex
alton.
Minister Hoshi, of Japan, declined to
be seen today about Japan's protest,
and Secretary Mutsu refused to discuss
the matter in any way, but it is learn
ed that the Japanese protest was made
in person to the state department yes
terday afternoon by Minister Hoshi.
The news Of the protest was a great
surprise to the Hawaiian legation. and
as soon as intelligence. of it was OBJ
tanned, Minister Hatch started out to
learn the particulars The essential
point as to the protest Is whether it is
against the annexation of. Hawaii, or
is merely protest res $erNing to Japan
all her rights under the existing treaty
with Hawaii. It believed that it is
the latter The Japan neses treaty with
1LeNWdl "eIo 1llcboS 5itl 3p'h r. ~
that natives or citizeIs of one county
shall have the uninterrupted. right to
enter into, reside and trade in the
other country, and also shall have all
the rights and privileges enjoyed by
the people of any other country under
treaty stipulations with Japan. Japan
under the treaty consequently has
perfect right to havef fler Immigrants
enter the Hawaiian islands, Under in
ternational law the annexation Of
Hawaii to the United States would
abrogate this treaty. Moreover, a new
treaty between the United States and
Japan, made some time ago, and to
become effective in 1899, provides that
the United States may exclude Japan
csc. If Hawaii is annexed the effect
would be to permit the United States
to exclude the Japanese from Hawaii.
1t is taken for granted, therefore, that
the protest is one reserving Japanese
rights under it's treaty of 1871 with
Hawaii.
At the japanese legation the docu-
ment filed by the japanese minister
yesterday is not regarded as a protest
against the Hawaiian treaty, but Is
considered as a request for official in
formation. There appears, however, to
be no doubt that as soon as Japan is
notified officially of the signing of the
convention that the government of the
Un>~ed States will he informed that

Mr.. Davis Moves to Mdk6
the Compact and the
Message Public.

WASHINGTON, June 16-The treaty
for the annexation Of the Hawaiian
islands reached the senate chamber at
o'clock today. The senate at once
went into executive session and, as
soon as the doors were closed, the
message of President Mckinley ac-
Companying the treaty and the treaty
itself were read to the senate They
were attentively listened to. In one
part of the chamber there was a group
of senators who will bitterly oppose the
ratification of the treaty. Among them
were Senators Gray, Mills, Pasco CAT
ferry, Pettigrew and McEnery.
AS soon as the reading Of the docu-
ments was completed, Senator Davis,
chairman of the committee on foreign
relations, moved that the message and
the treaty be made public Senator
Gray objected to vote on the mo-
tion and, under the rules, a single OBJ
lection carried the motion over until
tomorrow. Sena tor Davis gave notice
that at the next executive session he
would press the motion for publica-
ton. as all the essential facts and al
most a verbatim copy of the treaty had
been published in the press Of the
country.
There was some discussion as to
when the treaty might be considered,
and Senator White asked if it was the
intention to push it at this session,
and upon the reply being made that
it was possible, the California senator
said Il desire to announce that 1 am

not a very long document 1t dealt
with historical facts concerning the

continuation of existing relations with
closer bonds between people closely re-

1920, said the president the predom-
nance of the United States had been
known. The sending of the. first envoy
there brought the islands in closer re-
lationS with the United States. and
those relations had grown more firm by
succeeding events. AT the time the
tri-partite agreement was made for the
government Of Samoa, he said, Great
Britain and Germany wanted to in
clude Hawaii in the group over which
protectorate was established but the
suggestion was rejected by the United
States because this government held
this already existed in the relations be-
tween Hawaii and the United States,
which placed the islands under the
especial care of this country, and this
government could not allow any other
country to interfere in the affairs of
| Hawaii The annexation OF the ISL
anGs, said the president, and making
them a part Of the United States was
in accordance with the established pol
icy OF this country.
The president called attention to the
fact that a legitimate and existing gov
ernment of Hawaii offered to annex the
islands to the United States in 1851. but
on account of what was deemed best
policy, the annexation was not acceCted
! by this country He stated that the
United States virtually exercised a
prOtectorate over the islands since the
first American mission and guaranteed
the autonomy of the government of the
group. The islands had been largely
settled by our own people and our peo-
PIE were now interested in them
American interests predominated and
we had grown to consider them under
our own protection. The present treaty
was in the light of consummation OF
what had practically been in existence

Referring to the treaty negotiated
under the Harrison administration,
! President Mckinley said that the fail
ure to accept the proffer OF annexation
in 1893 while not a subject of con-
graduation, was not wholly without its
value, as it had demonstrated that the
existing government could maintain it
self, and no question could be raised
of the authority of the present govern
ment to negotiate the present treaty
or Of it's right to yield the sovereignty

The treaty proved to be a simple
! document of six articles based in it's

this and in the meantime County At

after which Deputy Reichow took

In charging Louis Zschau with COM
plicity in the stealing of $4,000 from
the German-American bank, it is the
theory Of the prosecution that it was
he who received the money from
Charley Zschau at the bank. and who
deposited, three-quarters of an hour
laiter, 5000 in the First National bank
to Jaekson's account. 1t is also claim

there was really nothing to be said.
He was wholly innocent of any knowl-

clared, and his arrest was an injustice.
Being brother of the man who had
confessed to stealing the money, the
young fellow said he was not surprised
that suspicion might have been di-

New Minister to Madrid Named.
Stewart L. Woodford Goes to SPAIN

WASHINGTON, June 16.-The presi-
dent has nominated Stewart L. Wood
ford, of New York, to be minister to
Spain. Mr. Woo1ford is an Old friend
of Senator Platt and the two have been
on intimate terms since they were col
leagues in congress a score of years
ago. Senator Plat vigorously urged
him for cabinet position, trying to
have him made secretary of the in
terror. Mr.. Woodford has made a.
fortune in his law practice, and Repub-
lican friends today spoke of him as a
natural diplomat. His nomination has
been foreshadowed in gossip about
the office for some weeks. The cabinet
talked the matter over yesterday and
the president referred to several per-
sons suggested for the post and inti-
mated that the preference was with
Woodford. The question was brought
up again today and late this afternoon
Secretary Bliss was called to the
White house and shortly after the
nomination was sent to the senate. Mr..
Woodford will see the president to-
morrow. There is excellent authority
for the statement that Mr. Woodford
Will accept.

minister to Spain, was born in New York on
September 3, 1885, and Is descended from early
settlers of Connecticut. Gen. Woodford

captain and served until 1864. He was judge
advocate general of the department Of the
