why Japan Kicks on the Hawaii Treaty.
The protest of Japan to the Hawaiian
annexation treaty is in substance as
follows; The acquisition of Hawaii by
annexation to the United States would
deprive the $4,000 resident japanese
in the islands of rights of citizenship
and property holders to which they
are at present entitled under the pres
ent treaty with Hawaii. In case of an
nexation, these Japanese could not be-
come citizens of the United States,
as the decisions of United states courts
are to the effect that no Asiatic can
become citizen of the United States.
BY annexation, the japanese now resi-
dent in Hawaii would be subject to any
measures that might be adopted by the
United States.
Hawaiians in Washington insist that
the reason for the protest of Japan
against annexation is that Japan really
desires to acquire the islands herself.
1t is understood that Japan insists that
her present claims must be acknowl-
edged and accepted by the United
States in case of annexation although
protesting against annexation.

THE WILSON FAMILY.
The Drummer Seeking Divorce from
His Wife.

Letters have been received from Sc
attic containg the information that
Charles d. Wilson is now seeking a
divorce from his wife. Wilson's par
ents, who have been with him from
the beginning of his trouble, are lend
ing him all assistance possible.
Wilson has not been seen about Sc
attic for two or three weeks and it is
believed that he has left the city. He
gave up his position as drummer in
the Third Avenue theater some little
time ago.
Mrs. Wilson has been given a posi-
tion in the box office of this theater
to enable her to provide for her o,
D'elihood. She writes friends in this
city that Wilson was brutal to her in
Honolulu.
Some people here believe that Will
son has gone to San Francisco and
that he will marry Mrs. Dimond as
soon as he secures his divorce.

interviewed on Subject of Annex

WASHINGTON, April minister
Hatch, in the course of an interview
tonight, on the subject of annexation,
speaking of the attitude OF the Admin
istration, said:
"If President Mckinley were not
friendly or interested in the matter of
annexing the Hawaiian islands, he
would hardly have requested an unof-
fetal conference with Mr.. Smith and
myself We were at the White House
at his invitation. l don't see where the
impression that either Senator Sher-
man or President Mckinley is against
annexation came from. We had a
long talk with the President. but, of
course, | am not at liberty to say
what was said between us.
The President is anxious that the
tariff bill should get out of the way
before he takes up the matter. While
there have not been any plans decided
upon, the idea of annexation of the
islands through a joint resolution, as
was Texas annexed in 1S45, is now the
favorite. The attempt to ratify
treaty would take up too much time.
We have had several talks with Secre-
tary Sherman on the matter, too"
