The Progress. (Shreveport, La.) 1892-1900, 1897-04-03
HAWAII AGAIN.

SPECIAL Correspondence.
Washington, D. c., March 29th,
The annexation of Hawaii seems
about to be made a live question
again, not by the negotiation Of
a treaty similar to that sent to the
Senate by Mr.. Harrison and with
drawn by Mr.. Cleveland, but by a
formal application from the gov
eminent OF Hawaii for the admis-
sion of the island republic into the
United States, either as a Territory
or as State. This application
will, there are reasons to believe,
be very shortly made to President
Mckinley, who will send it to Con-
gress with his recommendation as
to what shall be done with it.
President Mckinley has not COM
mitted himself, and nobody ven-
lures positive assertion as to
whether he will favor or oppose.
If he favored the application it
would be granted by Congress in
short order, but should he oppose
it, the outcome would be in doubt,
as there are a considerable number
of men in both House and Senate
who would hesitate to vote to adj
NIT Hawaii against his wishes, al
though themselves in favor of it.
1t is to be regretted that the de-
bate on the Dingley tariff bill,
which good or bad is to be passed
by the House this week, could not
. have been conducted on the actual
merits or dement's of the duties
which are to be imposed by that
measure, instead of degenerating
into partisan wrangle in which
both Democrats and Republicans
tried to show that the 'other party"
is responsible for the existence and
encouragement OF trusts, as it has
done. Partisan accusation seldom
influences the Intelligent citizen,
who may often be made to change
his opinion by calm argument
backed with proofs. Some day
perhaps we may have that sort of
tariff debate in Congress, but
truth compels the statement that
there hasn't been one of that kind
up to this time.
Complaints of the conduct of a
lottery scheme by solicitors Of pat
ents have reached Congress, and
Senator Hansbrough has introduce
ed bill making it illegal for pat
ent solicitors to offer or give any
premium or prize to induce inven-
tors to pay them a fee to enter any
alleged competition. The bill pro-
vides a heavy penalty for violation
OF it's provisions.

support to certain Of the Vanderbilt

more and more Importance TO the Su-

Sardsd as 81 severe blow to combina-

came quite pronounced, the selling pres
sure increased, and during the after

point OF the day. The trade was lacking

day seeming ito have left q depressing

Corn-The action of the corn market
was similar in most respects to that Of
wheat. both as q matter Of emulation
and for independent reasons
Oats opened steady and afterwards re-
NAMED So The trade was about ordi-
nary in character, several shorts cover
ing and scattered selling by commits
sion houses and flour traders taking
place.
Provisions-The hog market went by
contraries this morning There was
very light run, but for some reason the
demand did not appear urgent. and in
consequence cents were deducted from
prices. Later grain communicated a
better feeling Ito the product, however
