JAPAN MAY DEFEAT HER END.
A Russian Paper Says Europe Must be
Prepared to Uphold Spain.

London, June 25.-The Daily Graphic
says editorlally to-day: Japan is likely
to defeat her own ends by addressing n
bellicose remonstrance to the United
States On the subject of Hawaii. The
policy of annexation :s,not very popular
in America, but any attempt at dictation
will only be resented, and will strengthen
the case for the anneXationists by the
suggestion of an eventual Japanese an
neXation."
A dispatch to the Times from Kobe,
Japan, says that the Japanese newspapers
accuse the United Stntes OF bad faith
with regard to Hawaii, but that their
tone Is generally moderate.
The st. Petersburg. correspondent. OF
the Morning Post says the Novoe Vremya
protests vigorously against the action Of
the United States as ITO Hawaii, which,
1t adds, may soon be followed by an at.
tempt to annex Cuba.
Europe says the Novoe Yremya,
"has every reason to oppose the strength
ening of the United States in the New
World and must be ready to support
Spain If she is threatened with the loss
of Cuba"

THE APPEAL EDITOR CITED

Yesterday the editor OF the APPEAL
was before the Ways and Means Com
mittee, who asked him where he got
the information On which he based
his public charges on Assembly Bill
"a. He told what he personally knes
and offered to produce the necessary
witnesses by 9 o'clock a. m. toiay.
The Committee discussed the Or posi-
ton some time and decided ina, AS
n session was nearly closed they
could not spare the time. The witness
disclaimed any intention OF rejecting
on Mr.. NorcrOss' honesty in introduce
ing the bill and Mr.. Norcrss, who was
present, said he considered it a re-
Election on his intelligence in saving
he introduced a bill not knowing it's
real purport. The witness replied
that President Grant had signed a
bill abolishiDg free coinage, but that
the nation did not consider the charge
a reflection on his intelligence; that
the best OF NEE could easily be in
duced to support a piece Of ,legisla-
tive jobbery when it's .purport was
skllliully concealed. The witness
expressed his opinion that the bill
was to benefit Sutro & Bros. and the
Luning estate, but did not charge
that any member of the House had
beer corrupted by the agents.
The Committe then adjourned.
