DRAFTING A new C0RKER TI0R
President keKHiey SUI Hopes for on
ArbI ration Treaty WITH
Great Britain

W WASHINGTON, D. c., June 19-The
State Department, at the Presidents re-
quest, has been quietly drafting a new
arbitration treaty between the United
States and England. Though disap-
pointed at the recent treaty's rejection,
President Mckinley has never abandoned
hope of being able to present ;he ad-
vantages OF arb traiion to the Senate in
more acceptable light.
The greatest care will be taken in the
pre-: ent case TO avoid in the new treaty
any of the features which made Olney's
Objectionable. Jast how this is to be ar
ranged without sacrificing the vital prin-
cipies Of arbitration cannot be disclosed.
Before the treaty is submitted the SEN
ate's attitude toward 1t will be carefully
canvassed. The initiative in the present
case will be taken By this Government.
The failure of the former treaty by the
action OF the Senate left the subject in
such condition that the British Govern
ment' es not feel disposed TO renew me-
gotiations unless first invited.
Pauncefote leaves on Wednesday for
Great Britain. 1t was understood at first
OF the new treaty with him. but this plan
has been abandoned. 1t is expec ed, how
ever, that the draft will be in London
shortly. ard IS Pauncefote will be able TO
personally confer with Salisbury regard
ing it a definite reply should reach here in
time 10 insure the treatys submission 10
the Senate when it meets in next regular
session.

ANGEk OF JAPAN.
There Is TrONP ct of Some Trouble
Orer the A"ncratiom Treaty.

There Is a TToEp at oT Some Trouble
Orer the A"nrpatiom Treaty.
WASHINGTON, D. C.. June 19.-The
talk here to-day IN the Hawaiian matter
is that Japan will withdraw the coumer.
cial privileges she has extended Ameri-
cans.
Another reason for tho indignant state
in which the japanese VI mister finds him
self is the statement of Sherman to the
press that he had come TO favor the
treaty ION account of the claim of Japan
to the island"
The Minister said that the state ment
is untrue, and he regards it as studied
affront to Japan.
Japan's Minister has received no infor-
nation for several days as to the progress
OF the nes otiations respecting the in
demniiy demanded of Hawaii in the i'm
migration matter, but it is generally be-
lieYed that the matter is temporarily held
up pending further Developments in the
United States.
The fact that the British Foreign Office
was we'll informed in advance regarding
annexation proceedings, and they were
not altogether unknown 10 the French
and Spanish Governments, does not
conduce to the better feeling of
Japan. While the Japanese representa-
tiVes here express only the most friendly
sentiments toward the United States, e
lack of csndor on the art of Hawaii is
unreseTvedly denounced, and it can be
confidently stated that the diplomatic re-
lations between The two Governments are
decidedly strained.
The attitude of Japan is declared to be
fixed and firm. On the plea OF violation
of treaty rights during the Last Jew
months and insult offered by the inde-
pendent action of Hawaii, she will rest
ter grievances.
NEW YORK, n. Y, June 19.-As soon
as the machinery OF Oriental diplomacy
shall have made the due mum Der of revo-
luuons. advice- from Toxic are expected
to furnish an international sensation.
Probably they will take the form of an
announce ment that the United States has
been guilty of an unfriendly act toward
Japan.
The announcement will be accompanied
by a demand for an explanation and
apoogy.
All the Ministers in Washington had
been informed of the treaty but the Jap
anese.

Surprised That Hawaii
Should Drift From
England.
Some of Victoria'S Subject
Not at All Pleased With
the Treaty.
Has Advised the Queen
to Protest.

LONDON, ENG, June 19.-It is mored
in political clubs that Salisbury has ad-
vised tie Queen to protest against the
annexation of Hawaii, but this is ex-
tremely improbable. The general feeling
is still one OF surprise that any country
besides England should engage in land
grabbing, and the resentment against the
Government is general and intense because
Hawaii, which the good Lord clearly
intended TO be English, should be allowed
to drift into American hands. The fact is
recalled at this jubilee time that the
Queen of Hawaii walked in the jubilee
procession at Westminster Abbey in 1887
with Victoria, wearing a little crown on
her head.
The Tories make no secret of their belief
that Salisbury and Pauncefote have been
jockeyed in this matter.
I'VE now see" says the Birming am Ca
zette, 1.-THE aim and object of all the plot
ting that has gone on three or tour years
This intrigue is not much TO the credit of
America. 1t would have saved infinite
trouble if the President had stated in a
manly, Straightforward manner what he
wanted at tirst.'
The provincial newspapers generally
have taken the same line OF comment. II
seemed at first as though an organizs ei-
forI woudd be made to arouse the passions
OF the country, but word has evidently
gone forth from headquarters to leave this
prickly question alone.
1t may be predicted with the utmost
confidence that il the American people
care 10 sanction the annexation of Hawaii,
neither England nor any other European
power will venture to interfere.

miral of the United States Navy, to- day
was retired BY law from active service,

Admiral Brown has probably been the

honorable one, he having been appointed
TO Annapolis from Indiana in 1649 aud
havIn. served continuously until the
present time. The admiral will take up
his residence on his larIn near IndIanapo-

CONSTANTINOPLE. TURKEY. June 10.
The negotiations between representatives
OF the powers and the Porte for the estab-
Iishment of peace are being brought TO
satisfactory conclusion. All the points
involved have been settled, except the
method of guaranteeing the indemnity to
be naid by Greece, which has been fixed at
t6, 600. COO. 1t is regarded as probable,
however, that a committee composed of
Influential Greek residents OF foreign
countries will be appointed to control the
finances of Greece and the security for the
payment of the indemnity. This roint
once settled the final treaty of peace will
be signed and the Turks will withdraw
from Thessaly.
LONDON, ENG, June IA dispatch
to-day from Cons antinople regarding the
terms of peace, based upon Turkish Off
cial authority, says it will be safer to await
the event itself before assuming that the
Turkish army will really evacuate Thes-
sally in the near future. 1t may be true
that EngIand's display of grit and deter
mination has caused the Sultan and his
foreign supporters to abandon the plan
of retaining Greece's richest province un-
der Ottoman rule, but there is still good
reason to regard the Turk with suspicion.
