OPINION OF BISHOP WILLIS.
He Thinks That lle Knows All About
the Proposed Annexation of
Hawaii.

Plymouth, England, June 17.-Bishop
Willis of Honolulu, just arrived from
Hawaii, in an interview, is quoted as say
ing that the feeling in the islands is
against the United States, and greatly in
favor of British annexation. The bishop
adds that Great Britain has held aloof,
although third of the capital in the
country is British. Bishop Willis said he
thought that if Great Britain would not
take the country the next best plan was
for japan to reinstate Queen Liluokani,
Referring to the proposed annexation of
the islands to the United States, the bis
hop said the proposal was only advanced
in order to please certain politicians, as
America did not want the islands "be-
cause the Chinese exclusion act would be-
come nullifed if Hawaii was annexed"
In conclusion the bishop is quoted as
saying that there is no doubt that japan
will enforce her claims in Hawaii, in
which her commercial prospects are
good.

TRIED TO WRECK A TRAIN.


st. Louis, June 17.-B. p. Garner, a
car accountant of the Wabash railroad
brought today the details of an attempt
to wreck and rob Baltimore d Ohio

Of Salem, who was Sheriff Barnes lieu
tenant 10 thwarting the wreckers plans.
Garner said that there were three men in.
volved and that two were caught, one be-

shot, was out on parole from the Chester,

other man captured, is an sx.convict

two men, with the one who escaped, and
q fourth, banded together not long ago to
do a general business 10 the criminal
line. After they planned to hold up the
New York express on the Baltimore &
Ohio southwestern, they broke up in a
row, and one told Sheriff Barnes, upon
the sherifr's promise TO protect him, Of a
plan to wreck train.
All day Wednesday the three men
hauled railroad ties to the trestle. About
O'Clock in the afternoon the man who
peached, who by some pretext was ex.
cnsed from the days work, reported the
situation to Sheriff Barnes. The sheriff
collected posse OF six men, and started
from Salem along the track. About 1:3O
when they came near the Shennafelt cul-
vert the three robbers could be seen, and
almost In tho center Of the trestle was q
high pile Of ties, thrown across the track.

In convenient position to
Jump aboard the cars az soon as the train

train was now due In about 20 minutes
