JAPAN MUST KEEP HANDS OFF
This Government VIII Permit No
Interference in Hawaii.

CHICAGO, July PA special dis
patch from Washington to the '"Times-
Herald says:
The Administration has taken steps
to keep its grip on Hawaii. Any ag-
gressive interference on the part of ia
pan will result in the landing of ma
rines and the hosting of the American
flag with or without ratification of the
pending annexation treaty.
The Administration, realizing that
some crisis might arise while the treaty
hangs fire in the Senate, has taken
steps to be prepared for any emer-
gency. Rear Admiral Beardsley will
have, when the next steamer arrives in
Honolulu, instructions giving him
power to act at the first sign of ag-
gression on the part of Japan or
trouble of any kind with which the
local authorities are not able to cope
Rear Admiral Beardsley will be given
sufficient force to carry out the pro-
gramme that events may force upon
him. 1t is definitely settled that the
battleship Oregon, now en- route to San
Francisco from Seattle, will be dis
patched to Hawaii as soon as she can
be prepared for the voyage. This will
give Admiral Beardsley three vessels
the Oregon, Philadelphia and Marion.
Japan has at present but one vessel in
the harbor at Honolulu, the cruiser
Naniwa. She has another cruiser at
San Francisco awaiting orders which
may take her to the Hawaiian Islands.

THE POWERS ARE FIRM.
Determined to Put an End to the
Obstru ctions Of Turkey.

CONSTANTINOPLE July 12.-Fol-
lowing is the text of the collective note
of the Powers to Turkey:
''The great Powers have adopted the
project of strategical rectifcation as it
has been worked out by the military at
taches and communicated to the Sub
lime Porte. In consequence, they have
agreed to assure the Ottoman Govern
nent that they have arrived at a firm
determination to out an end to the OBJ
struction, the only effect of which is the
prevention of the conclusion of peace
eminently in the interests of Europe"
BERLIN, July 12.-The 'Tageblatt's'
Constantinople correspondent says that
the British and French ambassadors to
Turkey are about to be recalled, owing
to their Governments being dissatisfied
with their conduct in connection with
the peace negotiations.
1t is stated that Emperor William,
who is now on a northland tour, kept
the telegraph wires between Norway
and Berlin occupied with official dis
patches during the whole of Sunday
night. These dispatches, it is supposed,
were in reference to Eastern affairs.

COL. C. z. CROCKER.
Fears Entertained That He Cannot
Recover.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 12.-The
friends of Charles F. Crocker, Vice
President of the Southern Pacific Rail-
way Company, are thoroughly alarmed.
They no longer conceal the fear that
he cannot recover. He was exceedingly
weak to-day, and required frequent
nourishment The physician in charge.
while not ready to admit that death
is near at hand, says his case is not
entirely hopeless.
There appears to be no abatement Of
the paralysis in the right side. Colonel
Crocker makes frequent but futile eff
forts to use his right arm and leg.
During the greater part of to-day he
was in a semi-cOnscious condition. He
could not at any time carry on a con-
versation.
w. II. Crocker went into the room at
> o'clock, and remained some minutes
with his brother. The latter, although
not asleep. had his eyes closed, and
was breathing heavily. w. H. Crocker
did not attempt to speak to him. He
pressed his hand gently, stroked his
brothers brow, and left the room. He
thought he saw a slight improvement,
but not such as would give much hope.
During the afternoon the physicians
reported that they believed that there
was a Slight improvement. Four ply
sicians hold q consultation each day
and decide upon the course of treat
ment. The doctors still connected with
the case are DR.. Gardner, DR.. CHS
more, DR.. WhitwelI and DR.. MacMo-
nagel
