Has Important Business
to Lay Before His
Government.
HaWaii's Senate to Meet in
Extra Session on the 9Th
of September.
VIII Be Asked to Ratify the Annex
alton Treaty Signed at
Washington.

HONOLULU, HAWAII, Aug. 25.-Fran-
els NJ. Hatch, Hawaiian Minister at
Washington, arrived on tha Goth. Since
his arrival he has been in constant con-
sultation with President Dole and his
Cabinet. He brought important informa-
ton which will require the attention of
the Government and The Hawaiian SEN
ate. The. first move made is a secret
notice TO the mem bers of the Senate to
meet in extra session on Septem Der g.
The lawmakers will be asked to ratify
the annexation treaty recently signed at
Washington. This natter will be rushed
through, as m sjority of the mem bers
favor annexation to the United States.
Why the Senate is called together at this
early date is q M after: Of onjecture. One
Senator states that Hatch brought word
to the effect that President Mckinley will
call Congress together two N onths earlier
than usual 10 discuss the treaty and dis
pose OF 1t before the regular session. This
theory finds favor with other mem bers OF
the Senate.
The Hawaiian Senate will also be called
upon to assist the executive In unraveling
the japanese question. Japan's accept
ance of the offer of arbitration is such a
vague ihotl uluS tudt IcoiucIt OUle anu
his Cabinet are in a quandary. It is
rumored that there is serious split in the
Cabinet over the matter. and the Senate
Will be called upon to settle the question
and prevent an open rupture.
James B. Castle, who has held the posi-
zion of collector ofcustoms since the Queen
was deposed, has resigned. Ill health is
given as the reason. Frank McStocker,
now deputy, will proba bly, be promoted.
The real cause of Castles retirement is
said to be dissatisfaction with the manner
in which the Cabinet is managing the
japanese affair. Castle controls news
paper here. and it is believed that he in
tends to vigorously attack the officials.
His friends claim that his hands were tied
while he accepted pay from the republic.
Now he is free, ana it is said that he and
w. n. Armstrong, editor OF the paper, will
make it warm for the Cabinet.
From a reliable source it is learned that
they are more particularly after the seal p
of Henry E. Cooper, nos Minister OF For
eign Affairs. They claim, so the story
goes, that he is inexperienced, and in
other ways is unsuited for the important
position. Castle expects TO cause his re-
tirement and if successful Francis M.
Hatch will take up the portfolio again.
Even if Hatch does not take up the posi-
ton, it is generally understood mat he
will not return TO Washington; he will
remain here and practice law. In that
event L. A. Tharston, who was sent home
by Gresham, will: be the rev Minister.
He would like to return to Washington to
vindicate him self 1t is known here that
he is acceptable to Secretary Sherman.

That II suid of Hatch's Mission at
Examination.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Sept. 1.-There
is no disposition among officials here to
question the correctness of the statement
in the dispatches from Hawaii TO the
effect that Minister Hatch buried to
Honolulu with the special purpose OF Sc
curing ratification of the treaty Of annexa-
tion by the Hawaiian Government in
advance OF the meeting of our Congress.
There is no rule in diplomatic practice
that would forbid Hawaii first acting
upon the treaty, and the treaty itself does
not indicate which Government is to take
the initiative in the ratification. While
it is regarded as desirable in the execu-
ton of the policy of President Nc
Kinley toward Hawaii. as laid down
IN his message transmitting the treaty
to Congress last June that the document
shall be ready in all respects for the action
Of the United States Senate at its next
session, it is not believed that the Presi-
dent has any intention of ling q special
session for the purpose OF ratification.
Indeed, considering he TACT tina: If the
Hawaiian legislature acts with the great
