She Would Like to Be Queen of Ha-
waii Again with Japan's Aid.

wall Again with JapaR's Aid.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-The most inter
esting late development about Hawaii is the
statement that ex-Queen Liliuokalani and
Japan had been conspiring TO seize the ISL
ands, the dusky amazon to be restored to
her throne and the kingdom to be placed
under japanese protection. The Japanese
deny the story, but there is good reason
for believing that there is substantial basis
for it and that but for the prompt action
OF President Mckinley in bringing the
treaty negotiations to a conclusion the plot
would have succeeded. Indeed, members of
the administration and of the Senate com
mittee on foreign relations sincerely be-
lieve that Japan will still make a fight for
the islands, going to the extent, if need be,
of armed resistance to American annexa-
ton.
The Eveaning Star publishes the following
interview with w. A. Kinney, one of Ha-
waits special commissioners, in answer to
ex-Queen Liliuokalani's protests: 1T is
charged in the Queens protest that the
annexation treaty is an act of wrong to-
ward the native and part native people Of
Hawaii. Without attempting to now reply
to her statements as whole. II there Is
anything that the annexation treaty Is not,
it is just this what is charged against IT,
for annexation is the hope of the native
Hawaiians. | speak of the common people.
Their future is one of two things to pass
under Asiatic or Anglo-Saxon control The
hope of these people as a nation was dead
twenty years before this Queen ever as
cended the throne. If Asiatics dominate the
native must become a cooGe, for certainly
he cannot expect TO be better of than the
rank and file of the dominant race If
America takes Hawaii the native becomes
an American citizen, and the American scale
of wages and the honorable position occu-
pied by labor in America will prevail in Ha-
wall and every native will have the benefit
of it. It is a choice between the status of
a white American laborer and that Of an
Asiatie ccolie lahorer. The white man. II
Asiatics absorb Hawaii, can go TO his own
country. The common native has no such
choice He must stay and meet his fate.
Notwithstanding the indisputable bless
ing annexation viii be to the common
native the Queen playing upon the
inbred devotion of the natives to their
chiefs has, together with the official class
among the Hawaiians, insisted on the ma
tives holding out against their own good
and following with her the wtll-o' '-the-wisp

The TypOgraphicaI Union Opposed to
Their Application to Printers.


Their Application to Printers.
WASHINGTON, June 10. - The Senate
civil-service committee resumed its hear
ings to-day A letter was read from William
b. Prescott, president of the International
Typographical Union, in which he stated
that the Typographical Union was not
friendly to the application of the civil
service rules to the government printing
office, as had been represented. The
union" he said, latter over a years eX-
perience under Civil-service rules is not OF
opinion that the peoples interests are be-
ing subserved by their application to the
government printing office. Therefore 1t
will exercise its influence to secure their
abrogation and have the offlce placed on
the same basis as the most successful pri-
vate Office Briefly, the union is of opinion
better results would be attained by making
foremen responsible for quality and guam
tity of the output of their respective de-
partments, investing them with authority
to employ help at will and to discharge em-
ployes, to decrease the force for lncompe-
tency neglect of duty, violation OF ONCE
rules etc.
A Joint letter was read from three of the
auditors of the Treasury Department -

Andrews-urging an amendment to the law
permitting auditors to select their own prl-
Yate secretaries.
Henry A. Castle auditor of the treasury
for the Postoffice Department, appeared in
person Mr.. Castle had been postmaster
in st. Paul under the Cleveland administra-
ton, although he was an active Repub-
lican. He testified that the law had been
faithfully observed, with one exception.
Mr.. Castle thought there was great 1n1us-
tice in promotions and reductions in the
executive departments at Washington. lie
said he knew at least $50 cases In his own
bureau where Republicans had been reduced
or dismissed and Democrats placed in their
places. He had found that in Washington
the clerks rely more on political influence
to secure promotion than on their efficiency.

SILVER A DEAD ISSUE.
SO Says Eugene v. Debs, Who Will
Push Socialism to the Front.

CHICAGO, June 19.-Eugene v Debs de-
clared to-day in an interview that the free
silver wave had receded to such an extent
that it was a dead issue. Mr.. Debs says
h9 intends to encourage socialism as the
issue in 1900. The constitution, which was
to-day adopted by an overwhelming major
ity favors the public ownership of all in
dustries controlled by monopolies, trusts
and combines, such as railroads, telegraph,
gas and electric plants. 1t also faYors pub
lie proprietary control of all mines, oil and

gasted in the undertaking of public works
and improvements, the public credit to be
used for that purpose.

MIR. sHERMAN's CONDITION.
Unwarranted Report that the Secre-
tary Is "a Mental Wreck.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, June ia New York pa
per to-day publishes brutal story about
Secretary Sherman's condition, representing
him to be little better than a pitiable men
tai wreck. stating that he does not know
and is incapable of understanding or con-
Quoting important State Department busi-
ness; that he is an embarrassment to the
administration; that Assistant Secretary
Day is the real premier, and that Mr.. Sher-
mans retirement is only question OF
short time. Numerous instances OF the
secretary's failing memory and of his pc
cuiarities are given. The publication is re-
garded most unfortunate. The venerable
secretary's friends have known for months
that he is falling, but they do not admit.
nor is it a fact, that he is on the verge OF
senilty Much of the detail business of his
department is left to subordinates by the
secretary's express desires, as he wishes to
be relieved as much as possible of ccnsld-
GRAFTON of minor matters, but in large al
fairs he is said to be as alert and keen as
ever, and as appreciative of important fea-
lures of negotiation of all sorts.

west. north and south sides Of the quad
rangle. leaving the east side. under the
Queens private apartments, unoccupied.

Guards and guard of honor Of 100 bayo-

Guard and the Royal Artillery, Of the Foot
Guards, and of the Royal Engineers, fol-
lowed by a guard of honor, bearing the
Queens colors Each band as it entered

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 19.-The approach
ing Republican convention at Toledo, o., is
the issue which is provoking the most dis
cussion and speculation among the poll
ticans in Washington at the present time.
The opinion is genaral that there is going
to be clash between the Hanna and For
aker element, which will make itself mani
fest in the adoption of a Cuban sympathy
plank in the platform. Senator Foraker
makes no concealment of his purpose to
secure, if possible, the adoption of a strong
Cuban resolution, while Senator Hanna and
General CroSVenor, who are assumed to
more nearly represent the administration,
favor a more temperate declaration. SEN
ator Foraker says that neither Senator
Hanna nor General Grosvenor represent
him (Foraker), and that his views will
prevail at the convention. The situation is
sufficiently picturesque to excite more than
passing interest in Washington.

The Charges Against McCord.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The Senate
committee on territories to-day continued
it's investigation of the charges against M.
H McCord, nominee for Governor of Ari-
zona. r. S. Gardner, the Indian inspector,
whose affidavit charged Mr.. McCord with
an effort to bribe him, was present, and on
examination stated that what he construed
into an effort at bribery had taken place in
1891, in connection with the location of an
Indian school at Merrill, Wis He said that
he had stopped Mr.. McCord before he had
reached the point of actual offer of
bribery but that he had construed what
was said TO him as meaning that an offer
of 81 001 was intended to be made to infiu-
ence his recommendation. Mr.. McCord
was examined and stated that he had had
no such conversation as that referred to by
Mr. Gardner

CHICAGO, June 19.-According to brokers
and commission men, glucose trust has
been formed. Its existence was suspected
two or three weeks ago, when the price of
the '1ong sweetening" took an up turn on
a totally inactive market. Since then the
brokers have been kept busy recording the
quotations sent them by the refners. Con-
rad II. Matthieson. president of the Chicago
Sugar Refining Company, is supposed to be
prime mover in the new trust. With but
two exceptions every big glucose company
in the United States is said to be included
in the combine. Mr.. Matthieson refuses to
talk on the matter.

Is it a Hold Up2

Ed. TELEGRAM
We understand that the pro.
moters of the Short Line railroad
have petitioned the city council
for privilege Of crossing several
streets in town.
The question was brought be-
fore the council at special sit.
ting Monday night and arrange.
ment made for the council in
company with the Short Line
representatives and others whose
interests are involved, to make a
trip over the proposed route
Wednesday. which was done.
Report will be made Friday night
and the matter will be discussed
generally before the council will
decide as to the right asked by
the petitioners.
There will probably be some
very pleasant interchanges of
courtesies and those interested in
the affairs of the public will do
well to attend.
We heard it remarked that If
this right of way is secured, it
will conflict somewhat with the
new bridge and road leading to it
and if the Shortliners are sue
cessful it will be quite a coup d'etat
on their part In placing an in
convenient barrier in the way of
the new bridge projectors. Let
it be understood that we are not
opposing the Short Line but think
that inasmuch as the public has
befriended them by guaranteeing
that upon the completion of the
road they are to receive as do
nation from Clark and Coal dis
tricts the sum of fifty thousand
dollars. they should do moth
ing to handicap another inn
provement which progress de-
mands. If this road is built there
is no doubt but what we all will
be wonderfully benefited and lit
tic regret the liberal contribution,
which, by the way, is an amount
four or five times larger than
that asked to be given toward the
construction Of the bridge.
