nard explained by saying that the board
was irregular in its meetings. making
it impossible to post the books before the
bills were passed. ~. 1881.

showed great carelessness on the part of
the secretary and gives exam pies of long

DEBA TIERS WIN.
Yale MN Carry the D7y in Argu-
Ing against the Annexation
of Hawaii.

OF n avail.
NEW YORK, Dec. AT New Haven
this evening the annual Harvard Y ale
debate took place on the question:: Re
solved, that the United States should an
mex the Hawaiian Islands,"
Yale supported the negative and won.
Wilbur Morse opened the DEBATE for Har-
ward, conten ding that the United States
should annex Hawaii. He was followed
by H. a. Turnip of Yale, who opposed an
n xation. john a. Keith spoke next for
Harvard and 7. *. Clark for Yale. Charles
erik was Harvard's next speaker and II.
w. Fisher Yale's.
The Harvard debaters contended that
the United States needed coaiing station
in the Pacific in the event of foreign war;
Yale answered this statement by saying
that the annexation of Hawaii would eX-
tend the boundary OF the United States
1000 miles further westward, and would
necessi ate the doubling Of the number of
the ships in the navy and increasing the
army by Is, GOO men, and that It would cost
$50, 0o0, 900 to tortify the Hawaiian Islands.
The debates between Yale ana Harvard
began In 1882. Yale has won three time.
TO Harvard's five.
The debate was held in College-street
Hail. Many of the distinguished alum nj
OF both universities were in attendance,
while many statesmen of even national
reputation WEI interested listeners. Hon.
Chauncev M. Depew, Yale SO presided.
Each deba er took twelve minutes in
openng and five minutes in rebuttal.
Yale's strong attack on Harvard s argu-
| me mt was her denial that the possession
! of the Hawaiian Islands would strengthen
| this country rom a strategic point, but
| that the Possession OF the islands would
| weaken her and cause her a vast item ol
| expense in defending them.
! After the debate the judges. who were
! Hon. w. B Hornb over and Hon. J. J.
McCook of New York City and Professor
! w. B. MurriI of Columbia University
were in session but fifteen minutes when
/ they rendered their decision and the an
nou ncement was greeted with the hearth
est OF applause. 1t was unanimous.
Mr.. Depew made a witty address while
the judges were celebrating. At the con.
clusion OF the contest the Yale Union ten
