TO RAISE I. S. FLAG.
Deemed UnWiSe to Let the Country
Stand Alone Until Congress
Meets Again.

San Francisco, Cal. Aug. 3.-Thc fol
lowing from the correspondent of the As
Sociated press ut Honolulu was received
on the steamer Belgic today:
The arrival of the steamship Moana
from San Francisco, due here the 10Th,
means much for Hawaii In official cir
cleS ii is generally understood that the
nlted States minister. Scwell. will car
rE out the instructions received i'll the
last mail said To be to this effect:
IF the Moana brings word that Con
SrcSS had failed TO pass the annexation
treaty, Minister Sewell is to declare Il
protectOrate and raise the American flag.
The American minister has naG frequent
consultations with President Dole within
the past week. and it is believed they
have agreed on a programme.
The general impression here is that
Congress has decided 10 let the matter of
annexation wait over until the regular
session. The intervening months would
he Il long time for this country alone in
view of the attitude of Japan. and Sccrc-
tary sherman believed Il protcrtorate of
the | nitcd States is the only way to
prevent possible hostile action on the
part of the japanese.
''AS soon as the MOana arrives. it is un-
derstood, the United States minister Will
notify this government of his intention to
raise the American flag. Diplomatic eti-
quette will allow day or two for an
