An American Protectorate
Is Projected.
TO FoREsrALL ACTION BY JAPAN
According to Honolulu Advices the
ProtectOrate Was to Have Been
Declared Yesterday.

SAN Francisco, Aug. 3.-The steamer
Belgic arrived from the Orient, via
Honolulu, this morning, and brought
the following Hawaii advices under date
of July 9th:
The arrival of the steamer Moano from
San Francisco, due here July 29th,
means much for Hawaii. In close Off
cial circles 1t is generally understood
that United States Minister Sewell will
carry out his instructions received in
the last mail, which are said to be to
the effect that if the Moano brings word
that congress failed to pass the annexa-
ton treaty, then Minister Sewell is to
declare a protectorate and raise the
American flag. Minister Sewell has had
frequent consultations with President
Dole within the past week and it is
believed that they have agreed upon a
program.
1t is said that in view of the attitude
of Japan, Secretary Sherman is of the
opinion that the United States protec-
tion is the only way to prevent hostile
action during the intervening months
before congress reconvenes. 1t is ex-
pected that, allowing for the require
ments of diplomatic etiquette, every
thing will be in readiness for the dec
laration of the protectorate on Monday,
August I'd.
Edwin Dun, ex- United States minister
to Japan, is a through passenger on
Belgic. He is en- route for Washington
and expects to spend several weeks IN
the United States before returning to
Japan. Dun believes in annexation,
but is of the opinion that the present
congress will never take favorable ac-
ton on the treaty now before it. He
does not look for any rupture that may
disturb the friendly relations now exist
ing between the United States and
Japan, but he does believe the govern
ment has just claim against the Ha-
waiian government in connection with
the immigration trouble, although she
is not likely to enforce her claims in
case the Hawaiian government refuses
to recognize them.
''There is no possible likelihood of
trouble between Japan and the United
States," said Mr.. Dun, ''despite all re-
ports to the contrary. believe the
Japanese government will act favorably
upon the recent offer of arbitration
made by your government. The jap
anese of all classes feel very bitterly
against your government, but I may
venture the opinion that whatever the
outcome of the present correspondence
may be, Japan will never attempt to use
arms in enforcing her claims"

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. September
16.-The extent of the damage to the
bark Ceylon, which ran upon Arch
rock last week, was found today TO be
serious when the vessel went to the
drydock. The keel was gone, the
sheathing had been stripped from the
port side and several planks had been
stove in. Her owners were surprised
at the extent Of the damage, for, though
the bark pounded twice on the rock. il
was supposed that she had been only
scraped.

THE AMERICAN HORSE.


He Finds Favor in Several Foreign
COuutries.
There has been remarkable increase
In the export of horses from the United
States during the last few years, writes
w. f. Curtis to the Chicago Record.
In 1893 the total number shipped to
foreign countries was only 2.W7. In
1894 it increased to 5,246, in 1895 to
l3,94S. in 1896 to %. 126. and during the
first six months Of the present fiscal
year, ending Dec. 81, the total was IA
232; SO that II the same proportion ia
continued during the remaining six
months the total for the year will be
2S,464. Nearly half the entire exports
in 1896 went to Great Britain. the exact
number being 1902; but 1t is believed
that 1000 or more additional were sent
through Canada, the exports to the do
minion being 5,3O5 horses. The trade
with Great Britain in horses has shown
q rema rka BILE increase, for in 1903 the
total exports were only 56A head. The
increase in exports to Germany was
even greater. Notwithstanding the laws
Of that country, which are very annoy
ing to importers OF live stock and quite
expensive. In 1908 we shipped only
thirtythree horses to the German en-
pire. In 1896 we shipped 1855.
Among other countries now receiving
American horses Is Belgium. which Inn
ported none in 1893, and 1,134 in 1895
France took very few. only 397. Italy
bought one of our horses In 1893, two In
1894, three in 1895 and four In 1896
We sent 0S7 to Mexico last year. and q
good many to the West India Islands
with the exception of Cuba, where
strange to say. we sold none at all. Two
! American horses went to japan, foul
! to China, one to Samoa and one Il
/ Africa.
( New York is the largest horse marke
both for the export and the domestic
trade, but a good many are shipped
from Baltimore. Exports Of mules
have increased in corresponding 70
ito, the number for the last few year
being as follows: 1893, 1884; 1904
1908: 1896, 2,5l5: 1885. 5,g1S, and 70
the first six months Of the present fisca
year, 1854.
So far as the Department Of Agricul
ture is aware there has been no specia
effort on the part OF American hors
breeders to extend their foreign trade
The growth has been natural and tn
result Of low prices in this country.

An OLD Minister.

Many. stories are told OF DIR. Cad
Hitchcock, who was minister In Penn
broke, Mass, before and during revOlu-
tionary times. He was noted for his
patriotism and the fearless expression
Of his views when opportunity offered.
He was chaplain In the army at one
time, and preached many stirring SER
mon to the men.
The first sermon he published was adj
dressed to military company at the
time when the French were making in
roads ON the northern frontier. The
year before the breaking out of the rev.
OlutiOn he preached his famous "Elec-
ton Sermon" which reused Gov. Gage
to great wrath, and struck even the
minister's stanchest friends as ill-ad-
vised. 1t is said that when Doctor
Hitchcock wrote 1t, the Governor was
not expected to be in the audience AT
the time Of its delivery.
When 1t was found that he was there,
one Of the minister's friends suggested
that q slight modification Of some Of
the strong expressions In the sermon
WOuiu DCI w uuN ouA ~
Hitchcock was OF another mind.

said, land 1t will not be altered
On his journeyings to and from Bos
ton he usually fell into conversation
with any one with whom he wal
thrown. One day he Travelled to Ros
ton in company with sailor Of whom
he asked many questions as to his
name, residence. habits and tastes.
At last the sailor began questioning
in his turn: "What is your name!' he
asked.
