SERloaS COMPLICATIONS
May Arise Through Japan's Protest Againstt th6 Annexation Treaty-No
 Iilssilheqa Of Report This Session.

| Washington. June 2s.--The Hawaiian sanneNation treaty 0as the prineipaIsQb- jeet of discussion of the senate foreign affairs eomitt5e today. Tne communal locations were read and submitted to a subcommittee, consisting of Senators
 sDavis and Morgan, with instructions to investigate and report to the full com fmittee. The papers Were read, including |sthe protest of Japan against annexation. EThe. sub committee will inVe Vestgate all | the circumstances likely to grow out of l. annexation. Comparatively little was Esaid bearing upon the merits of sthe treaty at today's meeting.
 F The protest from Japan is considered
 Fin more serious light than was at first Ismade apparent, and the committee took | exceptional precaution to prevent the lspublieation of its proceedings. The pro- | test was accepted as almost an ultima tum on Japan's part that the treaty must not be perfected It is not a protest isagainst the form of the document, as had been supposed in some quarters, but against the document itself, or rather ! against the transaction as being opposed to Japan's interest. The specific reason f alleged for the protest is that the con | ssum1nat ton of the agreement between | Hawaii and the United States would dis sturb the existing trade relations of the | North Pacific and nullify treaty rights F The protest is in such definite terms
 1 and is directed so sqnarely at the trans- action as to cause the committee to feel | that the entire matter should be handled lswith the Utmost 'circumsps sction, as the konly way in which the complications with sother countries can be avoided While 1 sthers Is no position on the part of ma- sJefity sofsthe committee to weaken in it's .suppent, of the treaty there is a gensral sfeelfng-that the friendly relations which have always existed batween Japan ard 1.-the United States call for great delibera- lstion and especial care in proceeding in fethe matter, Hence the appointm nit of Sthe subcommittee tn consider all the dr~
