THERE is no truth in ths reports that an extra session of Congress would be called to consider the ratification of tbe Hawaiian annexation treaty; however, there is DO reason to doubt the report from Houolulu that Minietev Hatch buried from Washington to Hawaii with the special purpose of securing favorable action on che annexation treaty by the Hawaiien govern nent in advance of action by the Unised Stasee Senate. While it way bs gsrded de sirsble in the execution of the policy of President Mckinley toward Hawaii th at the document shall be ready in ali re- speots for the action of the United States Senate at it's next session, it is not believed that the President has any in ention of calling special session for the purpose of ratification. Indeed, considering the fact that if the Ha- wsiIan legislature ects with the great est promptitude upon the treaty it cap scarcely complete tbis action and re- turn the ratified convention to Wash ington before October es ths earliest, it would appear to be unnecessary to ad vance the session oi Congress by such g short space of time as would intervene between that date spd the date upon which Congress meets in regular ses- siou
