KANSAS CITY, Mo, June 16.-Because
Of the enactment in Illinois of the
|anti-butterine law Kansas City, Kas.,
will doubtless become the principal
headquarters for the manufacture of
that article. S. b. Armour, presl-
dent of the local Armour
Packing Co., in an interview
said; I'VE will probably bring
IA few Of the persons employed in the
Chicago plant here. The Missouri law
is against us, but there is no law in
Kansas that interferes with the manu-
facture or sale of butterine. We will

have no laws that will prevent the free
sale of butterine."

ANNEXATION SIGNED,
Under It's Terms Hawaii Becomes
Part of the United States.
JAPAN'S MINISTER ENTERS A PROTEST,
On the Ground that 1t Promises to Lead
10 Breach of Treaty stipu-
ladons Between Japan
and Hawaii.

WASHINGTON, June 10 In the great
diplomatic room of the state depart.
ment where fouryea and four months
ago, in the closing hours Of the lIarri-
son administration, the first Hawaiian
annexation treaty was signed, only to
be withdrawn from the senate and
thrown into a pigeon-hole the repre-
sentatives Of the governments of the
United States and Hawaii gathered
this morning and signed treaty,
by the terms of which, if
ratified, the little island republic
will become part of the territory Of the
United States. OF the persons who
stood in the room three were present
when the original treaty was signed,
namely Special Commissioner Lorrin
A. Thurston aud Assistant Secretaries
Adee and Cridler The frst-named
perhaps took a more sincere personal
pleasure in the ceremony than any Of
the others, because of the stirring
events of the last four years in which
he was so directly concerned.
A VERY UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE.
1t is a very unusual thing for treaty
of such Importance to be signed early
in the morning, but in this case it was
desired that the convention be made
ready early in order that it might he
submitted to the senate on the
day of its signature The docn-
ment itself had been prepared
carefully over night; in fact, it
was practically completed at the close
of official hours yesterday, but it was
necessary to make close comparison,
and the president wished another op-
portunity to go over the document,
probably with view to drawing up a
message with which it will be accom-
panied to the senate. Therefore, be-
fore nine o'clock the persons concerned
in the preparation of the treaty were

Under international law the annexa-
tion OF Hawaii 10 the United States
would abrogate this treaty. Moreover,
a new treaty between the United
states and Japan was made some time
ago, and TO become effective in 1899,
provides that the United States may
exclude Japanese. If Hawaii is
annexed the effect will be to permit the
United States to exclude the Japanese
from Hawaii, 1t is taken for granted,
therefore, that the protest is one re-
serving Japan's rights under its treaty

wife Beaten Locked Up.

A case particularly distressing was
brought to light at Charlestown, y. H.,
Wednesday. On complaint OF Mrs. Peter
Benware, who lives near Acworth, a war
rant was issued charging her husband with
aggravated assault. The womans story
showed the family life to be an unhappy
one; that her husband was quarrelsome
and addicted to liquor, and that the day be-
fore he had brutally assaulted her.
With broken cup for weapon he at
tackled her, nearly severing a finger from
one hand, and finished by knocking her
down and intlicting severe injuries about
her face and head. Benware was arrested
and brought before justice for examina-
ton. Sufficient evidence was introduced
to warrant holding him for trial, and fail
ing to furnish bonds he was taken to New
port Jail to await the October term of the
county court.
The wite-a hard working, industrious
wOman-is left destitute with family of
children, the youngest being an infant ia

spain,s MeIpItssnessiIn War.

If Spain were to assume the aggressive
against this nation, writes Henry g. Kemp
in the illustrated American, she would
have to operate over 5000 miles from a re-
pair station and base, and she would re-
quire force at least twice as strong as
that which we could send forth. She
does not possess a single harbor in the
Yves. Indies which could resist capture by
an American fleet. 1t is $500 miles from
Lisbon to New York, and it is doubtful if
Spain has ten war ships which could steam
the distance at fair speed. 1t is highly
improbable that she has a single vessel of
any kind which carries sufficient coal to
make the round trip between those ports.
1t is over 5000 miles from the nearest
Spanish port to the channels Of the Wind
ward islands. 1t is 500 miles from these
passages 10 Havana. If the testimony of
experts is to be relied upon the Cuban
patriots only need stores, ammunition and
guns. In great part the military problem
would be the simple one of blockading the
ports and landing on the coast of Cuba
such supplies as are necessary to Weyler's
opponents. While supplies were being
landed in Cuba the American vessels of
the Pacific and Asiatic squadrOns would
undertake the capture of the Philippine
Islands. Their possession would be a
prize worth seeking, since at least $780,
coo, 900 could be secured from their sale.

Unjust Abuse of England In India,

In view of the abuse that is being lev
elled by certain American magazines and
newspapers against the English people for
having spent so much money in celebrat-
ing the Jubilee of the Queen while so
many of their fellow-subjects in India
were starving, it may be as well to call at
tention to the fact that fund of nearly
100000 for the relief of the sufferers
by the Indian famine has been raised by
popular subscription in the British do
minions. OF this sum 100000 was
raised in London alone. The government
itself has devoted an immense sum toward
the same purpose by means of so-caled re-
lief public works, and in connection with
the distribution of food, over 1000, 900
natives being at the present moment sup
ported and maintained without any return
by the British administration.

This suburb Of Bellows Falls across the

There are now II different dwellings being
erected TO furnish accommodations for il
additional families, and several more are
projected. I'm the last two years several
thousand dollars have been expended in
building permanent concrete sidewalks.
Il ich Of the principal streets are now sup

sued for a special village meeting 10 take
preliminary steps for establishing a
thorough and complete system Of sewerage
for the village. The Aqueduct company,
which furnishes all the water for the vii.
lage, has during the past week contracted
with Philadelphia firm 70 furnish enough
S and G-inch iron pipe TO relay the whole
system. The growth Of the village has far
exceeded the capacity Of the old pipes, and
there has been no protection from them in
case Of fire.
In laying the new pipes they are TO be so
planned that a thorough hydrant system
can be put on whenever the fire district
shall vote to go to that expense. The
contract for digging, and laying the pipe
has been made with reliable Boston firm.
John Hasset has been in Boston and else
where this week completing arrangements
for the work, which it is expected will be
begun next week. Nothing shows more
clearly the rapid growth Of that village
than the increasing demand for water.
Only few years ago, the late Nathaniel
Monroe, owning the whole water system,
supplied the village through a one.inch lead
pipe. Until within two years nearly the
whole water supply of Bellows Falls was fur
nished through an S-inch pipe laid about
81 years ago. At this pace Bellows Falls
will need to "watch OUT lest the village

GOodwin's laundry. He was last seen
about 10 10 o'clock Monday evening. Vaughan
is % and only son of w. w. Vaughan. He
has wife and child. 1t is supposed that
he went away during alteration of mind,
He disappeared in a similar way three
years ago, under the delusion that he had
committed some crime which made it nee
essary for him to flee and conceal himself,
and could not be found for nine weeks
At the end of that time he wrote his father
from Kaufman, Tex, with his reason re-
stored. He had had no mental trouble
since, and had seemed well contented and
satisfied with his work at the laundry.
Mr.. Vaughan is five feet nine inches tall
and weighs about $50 pounds. He has
black hair, rather long, round face, and
was smooth shaven. He wore black coat
and vest, with light trousers and working
shirt with turned collar and square black

Japan's Firm Protest.

That Japan will continue to oppose the
Hawaiian annexation treaty is conclusive
ly shown by the latest protest of the Jap
anese government, under date of July 10,
which is now made public. While coached
in polite and diplomatic language the pro-
test is sufficiently firm in tone to show
that Japan will continue TO wage a diplo-
matte war, and possibly go further, to pre-.
vent the contamination of the annexation
policy. 1t is impossible for Japan to
"view with unconcern and in a spirit of
acquiescence the consequences which would
follow the extinction of Hawaiian
sovereignty" the imperial government
significantly declares. This may not
mean that Japan will resist annexation "to
the utmost as Count Okuma is credited
with saying in a recent interview, but the
general tone of the note is of a character
to indicate that annexation without the
"acquiescence" of Japan will mean a rup-
ture in the relations between the two
countries. 1t has already been stated that
ii is the purpose of the Administration to
ignore the protest. Its receipt has been
acknowledged, but the state department
has concluded not TO further argue the
question, and Presiden. Mckinley will
continue to urge the ratification of the
treaty just as if the protest had never been
made.
