SUNDAY SESSION
The Unusual Event Crowds

Spectators.
Cons: d sration of Sundry Civi,
Appropriation Bill Is
Resumed.
A Mum Der of important Amendments
Adopted and the Measure Is
Finally Pissed.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 2S.-An
open session Of the United States Senate
on Sunday afternoon is such remarkable
and unusual occasion, and so much at va
rance with the religious sentiment of
the country, that crowds were attracted
to the north wing of the Capitol an hour
before 3 O'Clock this afternoon, the time to
which the Senate had at 2:30 O'Clock taken
an adjournment. All classes OF people
were in the crowd. Some were early
enough to obtain seats in that Sec
tion of the galleries that is open to the
general public. Others who were holders
of tickets to reserved sections presented
them and were admitted so long as any
space was left. Those who could not get
inside stationed themselves near the gal
lery doors, waiting their chances, or wall
dering listlessly up and down the marble
stairways and spacious halls.
AS to the Senators them selves, the day
seemed to make no difference to them.
They were present in about the usual
number. A vote taken soon after the pro-
ceedings began showed that there were
nearly seventy Senator'S in the hall, some
ofthem being paired Nor was there any no.

There were mum ber of this Sect and
they told their woes to ali who would
listen. Hard luck stories were as plenti-
full as bees in a hive, and the fact that
they had got off free of personal injuries
such as many others suffered never
seemed TO occur to the story tellers.
The finish OF the race was very exciting.
The various punches had passed the
crowds at the tape twice and were about
due for the last time. The officials were
getting in readiness to take the times and
positions. and ell necks were eagerly
craned down the road. "There they
come" shouted an eagle-eyed lookout
from q nearby treetop and few seconds
after a cloud of dust--that was all that
could be seen at a DISTINGUISHING into
view. 1t was big cloud, too, and the

caught the times and positions is one of
the mysteries known only to such old
hands at the game as George Wetmore,

others who were officiating, but get them

An item of news on another
page refers to a valuable discovery
in sugar manufacture, made by
Mr. Hartmann, chemist in the Pa
paikou sugar mill ON Hawaii. 1t
consists in using the juice from
the third mill for macerating
trash from the first mill. The idea
is a very simple one, and at first
glance would hardly seem to be
worth the efforts of a trial. But
repeated experiments have de-
mOnstrated that it results in an
increase of sugar. To be sure, the
amount of increase is small-only
one per cent.-but one per cent.
counts largely when we are APP
preaching the perfect standard.
Mr.. James RentOn visited the Pa
paikou mill a few days ago, and
when he found the results of this
very simple discovery, he decided
to introduce the process into his
mill in Hamakua. Other planters
here will do the same.

THE ANNEXATION TREATY.

The news is most satisfactory
in this behalf. While it appears
to be pretty definitely settled that
action on the Treaty by the Sen
ate will be deferred to the regular
session, opening in December,
yet, in Congress and throughout
the country the impression is
gaining ground and strength, that
Hawaii will be annexed. The mat
terat last accounts was still in the
hands of the Foreign Affairs sub
committee, Davis, Morgan and
Foraker, all of whom are believed
TO favor the measure.
The preliminary protest of Jap
an against annexation, has been
followed by a formal protest,
which the State Department re-
ferred to the Senate Committee
ON Foreign Affairs. The text of
the protest was published in yes
terday's Advertiser.
LiliuOkalani has followed up
her protest, made as Queen of Ha-
waii, by visits TO the Senate where
she has interviewed members.
The only Palmer continues to
make announcements and issue
proclamations. And SO the fight
is on!
Let not the friends of anneXa
ton i'm Hawaii relax for one mo-
ment the most earnest effort. If
it is believed that the cause is
safe and that no further work is
needed and so nothing, or next to
nothing, is done, the result will
probably be DEFEAT! Let us not
deceive ourselves; the hottest
fight is yet before us. The six
months. respite, is exactly what
the Trust, Mr.. Oxnard, Spreckels,
the beet sugar people want. No
expense, no effort will be spared
to fill the minds of Senators and
Congressman with false state
ments and misrepresentation as to
the facts. If the facts, all the
facts, only the facts, are placed
before these gentlemen, in con-
else, clear form, it will have an
irresistible effect and it will re-
suit in success for annexation and
bright in place of dismal fut-
ure for Hawaii.

INDIA.

1t is pretty generally recognized
by English authorities, after the
lapse of many years, that certain
signs and marks which were
found to be widespread through
out India, had reference to the
SepOy rebellion which subse-
quently broke out. Quite recent
ly, it was thought that signs,
marks and characters observed
quite generally throughout the
country might possibly have re-
ference to further trouble. In the
news items by the Gaelic, very
serious trouble seems to be i'm
pending, and there have been a
number of grave outbreaks
against the English authority.
Further news in this behalf will
be looked for with intense in
terest.

An artesian well has recently
been successfully bored through a
coral reef at Keywest, which is one
of the chain of coral islands off the
southern end of Florida. The drill
went to a depth of two thousand
feet, and samples of the borings
throughout the entire depth were
collected for Prof. Agassiz. The
coral formation was found to be
about fifty feet through. A splen-
did flow of water was obtained at
the depth of two thousand feet.
The coral formation of so feet was
considered as extraordinary. In
these islands it has been found at
various depths from one hundred
to nearly two hundred feet.
Whether this fact indicates a sub
sidence or rise in the island is not
certain. On thing, however, Is GER
tain that coral formations are
found here on Oahu at various ele-
vations of five to sixty feet above
sea level. If. Prof. Agassiz could
visit Honolulu and examine the
coral and what are called limestone
beds ON Oahu, he could gather
data which might afford better,
evidence of the formation of Isl
ands in the Pacific than can be
found in any other way. That
the coral insects work to greater
depth than is generally supposed,
the islands in this ocean furnish
ample evidence.

Nothing could be more pleasant
than the advices received Tuesday
by the Gaelic's mail. The work of
the extra session was drawing to
a close, and as the lower house of
Congress is understood to favor
most of the changes in the tariff
bill, which have been adjusted in
the Senate ON compromise basis,
it has probably been finally pass
ed and signed by the President be-
fore this date, to take effect inn
mediately. In Cuban affairs, no
change is reported. General Wey
Ter is as profuse in his promises
as ever, but gives no evidence of
any substantial success, and in
the opinion of those in the United
States best capable of judging,
never will succeed. The trouble
between Greece and Turkey seems
no nearer a close than one month

All advertisements of Hoods Sarsaparilla,

lieve Hoods Sarsapa-iIla must possess
