the way or Annexation.
Special Gable Desputeh to THE sUS.
LONDON, June lathe Times is OF the opin.
ion that the recognition Of the independence OF
Hawaii by the great powers in 1s43 will con-
stitute q diplomatic difficulty in the way OF the
annexation OF tho islands by the United
States. 1t says that II annexation is effected it
will entail novel responsibilities, and will intro
duce an entirely new element in the American
political system.
The Daily Neura says that the acquisition Of
Hawaii will probably prove an e~poch-making
transaction. The United States, 1t adds, has en-.
tered the scramble for colonies, and nobody can
say where they will stop.
