SECRETARY OF STATE SHERMAN
SAID TO FAVOR ABROGATION.
Will Use His Influence Against the
Sugar and Hawaiian Treaty Feat
ures of the Dingley Bill.

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator
Perkins was apprised today by wire
that two more memorials from the
sugar beet growers of California, ask
ing for the abrogation of the reciproc-
ity treaty with Hawaii, were on the
way to him. When they arrive they
will he transmitted to the Senate, and
will form part of the mass f pressure
this feature of the Dingley tariff bill.
The fact that the opponents of the
reciprocity treaty made no fight on it
in the House indicates that all pos
sibe weight has been eXerted in the
Senate. Senator Perkins, when the
subject was first brought up, saw the
Republican leaders, who, at that time,
expressed their belief that the Repub-
lican party could not affrd to oppose
Hawaii or throw anything in the way
of closer relations with the islands.
Henry Oxnard, who is making the
fight said today, that he had assur-
ances that many leading men on the
Republican side had changed their
views on the matter. Members of the
Finance Committee, who are now at
work on the tariff bill, will not discuss
their standing, as the sugar schedule
has, not been touched and they refuse
to forecast their action. 1t is believed
the attack on the treaty will take the
form of emitting from the tariff bill
if sufficient strength is developed
that clause of the sugar schedule
which reads: Provided, that nothing
herein contained shall be so construed
as to abrogate or in any manner i'm
pair of affect the provisions of the
treaty of commercial reciprocity con-
cluded between the I'm ed States and
the King of the Hawaiian Islands on
the 3Oth day of January, 1875, or the
provisions of any act of Congress here.
tofore passed Tor execution of the
same.
The proviso has stood in every tar.
if bill up to the present time, and
there would be hard fight against its
elimination in the House. Those fav.
oring the abrogation of the treaty say
that they have secretary of State
Sherman with them. but he will dc
nothing which is not in line with the
policy of Mckinley, wh.cn is not

DIAMOND JUBILEE WILL BE GEL
EBRATED IN HONOLULU.
The Queens Birthday Will BE OBJ
served Also-Banquet and Ball by
British Commissioner-Prog

The British colony in Honolulu is
making elaborate preparations for the
Celebration of both the Queens birth
day on May "a and the Diamond Jub-
lice on June 22. Capt. 4. G. S.
Hawes. the British Commissioner, has
notified his people that he will care
for one of these important English
celebrations if they would look after
the other. This has been practically
agreed to, and in all likelih hood the
Commissioner will have the arrange
ments for the celebration commemor-
ating the birthday of Queen Victoria.
The British subjects will engineer the
Diamond Jubilee demonstration. OF
course, they will have the hearty sup
port of Commissioner Hawes and Vice
Consul Thomas Rain Walker, in their
efforts.
Commissioner Hawes having left on
the British man-o-war Wild Swan
last week, for Kauai, his plans could
not be learned from his directly. 1t is
believed. however, that he will give a
grand banquet and ball on that occa-
sion.
The main movers in the Diamond
Jubilee Celebration are the two Brit
sh societies, Sons of St. George and
the Scottish Thistle Club. Already
committees have been chosen by these
organizations and several joint meet
ings have been held. w. C. Roe, +. b
Thomas and w. F. Reynolds have been
selected from the first named society
and Daniel Logan, w. f. Wilson and
| w. White from the last named organ
ization.
While no definite plans have been
decided upon, it is known that the
wish of the two committees is that a
grand outdoor demonstration be made
\ parade, field sports on the Mallik
base ball grounds, band concert ant
a dance and supper in the evening arr
the principal features of the program
thus far mapped out by some mem
bers of the committee. The British
Commissioners has been consulted re
garding the Diamond Jubilee celebra
tion and he has stated that the British
colony in Hawaii should do itsel
proud on that occasion. The commit
mittees have resolved to make it on,
of the grandest and most memorabl,
English demonstrations ever given OF
the islands.
As June % falls upon Tuesday. the
committees, as well as the British
Commissioner have concluded that i
would be best to hold the festivitie
in Honolulu on Monday, June 21, a
the island vessels would nearly all b
in port and the seafarlng men woulC
be given an opportunity to enjoy tn
festivities. This Government will un
doubtedly declare the day on whicl
the Diamond Jubilee is celebrated,
public holiday.

BOTH MEN DISCHARGED.
No Case Against Gallagher and
Shimizu.

Upon the convening of the Police
Court this morning Judge De la
Nergne gave his decision in the cases
brought by the Republic against w.
J. Gallagher and b. Shimizu, prompt
ly discharging the defendants.
Gallagher and Shimizu We're arrest
ed during the recent Japanese trouble,
charged with unlawfully importing in
to the country the japanese immi-
grants brought here on the Shinshiu
Maru. The majority of the japanese
in question were sent back to Japan
while about 200 out Cos were allowed
to remain.
The Court, after making a full eX-
animation into the case, found that
Gallagher and Shimizu, as agents of
the Kobe migration Company. had
brought the japanese to Hawaii on a
contract binding their company to Sc
cure them work. 1t was not obligatory
on the part of the Japs to work un-
less they wished to.
Judge De la Nergne says that the
statutes of the Hawaiian islands pro
yhle against persons importing certain
contract laborcrs into the country
who might he aliens or not desirable
There was no crime on the part of the
Kobe Immigration agents.

STEAMERS BETWEEN ISLANDS,
HONOLULU AND TACOMA.
Mr.. Young, of Tahiti, Now in Homo
lulu-lle Has Large Land Interests
in the South--Looking Up Coffee.

.ames l.. Young, of Tahiti, one of
the best known men in the South Sea
islands, is in the city on his way to
San Francisco on private business of
importance. He arrived from Austria
Ma on the Monowai a few days ago,
intending to remain over for some
time; but he finds now that he must
press on by the Australia to the coast
and will leave his business matters
here unattended to until his return,
in the summer.
Mr.. Young is the owner of extensive
lands in Tahiti, which he believes are
adaptable to coffee growing. Up to
the present time coffee planting has
been carried on in the islands only
to a very limited extent. and then in
the lowlands. where il is really too
damp to grow coffee successfully. He
had hoped TO have time enough here
to pay a visit to Hawaii. and obtain
there such comparative facts and fig
ures as would enable him to deter
mine just what portions of Tahiti and
the surrounding islands could be util-
lied for coffee growing.
Personally. Mr. Young knows moth
ing of coffee planting nor has he any
desire to go into the business on his
own account. He has friends in Ia
hiti. however, who are anxious to 90
into the business. All they need is
capital, and that can be secured, it is
believed, if it can be demonstrated
that coffee can be grown successfully
in Tahiti.
The recent successes of planters in
Hawaii have turned the attention of
those who have money to invest to the
growth of coffee. The area of lands
adaptable to the growth of coffee in
the entire world. it has been demon
strated, will not, in time, produce
enough to supply the worlds demand.
| There is a prospect that the delicious
breakfast beverage will, in time, be-
come a positive luxury, which will
|
control the production of coffee.
There is a chance to get in now on the
ground flosr but investors must be
careful. for unless the climatic condi-
tions are just right coffee cannot be
successfully produced.
Should experiments in coffee grow
ing in Tahiti prove successful there
are enormous fortunes to be made
there. The industry mas already a
good start in Samoa, where an excel
lent berry is turned out.
Tahiti now has direct connections
with San Francisco and sydney, with
the former by pacKet line, and with
the latter by the Union Steamship
Companys vessels, which enter and
clear once month. For some time
past there has been talk of a steam
ship line between the islands and Ia
coma, touching at this port, and bring
Honolulu in direct connection with
the famous French colony Nothing
has been heard of the proposition
lately, but it is not by any means dead.
1t is stated that fresh developments
will crop out in the course of the com
ing summer.
