The comments of the British press on the
Hawaiian question are, on the whole, not
unfair nor unfriendly. OF the leading pa
pers quoted only one, the Globe, insists on
British interference, and that paper is no.
toriously hostile to the United States. The
other papers all seem to regard the an
nexation movement as a natural one on the
part OF the United States. and some of them
frankly declare they would be glad to see
Hawaii an American colony rather than
any other One says: Had England been
in the position of the United States she
would probably have annexed Hawaii years
ago" OF course she would and Cuba, too.

The best solution of the sugar question,
and one which would put an end to tariff
juggling and senatorial scandals on the
question, would be for this country to pro-

kept steadily in view.

MOORES HILL, Ind, June 16.-One or
the main events of this commencement Is
the resignation of DR.. j. II. Martin, as
president, after seven years continuous
service A number of years ago DIR. Martin
acted as president for two years, after
which he was engaged superintendent of
schools at Franklin and Madison and in
other educational work Several years ago
he had a severe attack of the grip and for
a time his life was despaired OF. Since that
time his health has been bad and he feels
that he must take a rest. The success or
Moore's Hill College in recent years IS
largely due to his efforts. The board OF
trustees at it's meeting yesterday referred
his resignation to q committee, but II IS
underst TODD to be final and successor Will
be appointed. The board voted appropria-
lions for several new improvements in diff
ferent departments and reported acqu1sl-
lions TO the endowment fund. The college
next year will be fitted better than ever.
The event of commencement week enter
tainments thus far was the annual exer-
cises last night of the Sigournean Society.
This is made up exclusively OF the college
girls and their annual entertainment Is al
WAYS regarded as a commencement treat.
Field day exercises were also held yeSter-
day and attracted q large crowd.

Alaskan Authorities Have Awakened
to the SeriOusness of the Situa-

and Whisky sellers
Driven Out.

Seattle Wash, Sept. 6.-The authorities
of Alaska have awakened to the serious
nature of the situation at the White pass.
They see in the continuance of the camp at
Skaguay, as now constituted, possibilities
for crime and various other evils or great
magnitude. Steps have been taken TO preak
up the camp by dispensing the lawless ele-
ment that has gathered there from every
state in the Union.
Colonel f. S. Chadbourne, state haroor
commissioner of California, who was pas
senger on the steamship Queen, brought
down advices to the above effect. Colonel
Chadbourne says that Collector Ives ana
a force of deputy United States marsnais
had determined to raid the town OF SKA
quay and clean out the whisky smuggiers
and saloon men, and rid the camp OF the
disorderiy element. Heretofore the author-
tiles have been utterly unable to cope with
the disorderly element until the camp pe-
came the hottest on record. 1t was the
refuge of the worst class of criminals. con-
fidence men and thugs on the coast. These
with the whisky men, had combined 10
block the trail. so as to keep the tender1oot
there all winter and fleece them as long as
there was dollar left in the camp.

the other side the accounts published from
time to time seem to have but family por-

desperate by their failure to get over the
trail and by the terrible hardships that
they have been compelled to endure in the
hopeless struggle against odds of the past
few weeks, the miners have become suspi-
cious of each other, and quarrels are OF
hourly occurrence. Every mans hand is
raised against every other man. The law
less characters are much in evidence, and
dissensions and discords have broken out
among the miners until such thing as CO.

Governor Brady is quoted as saying that
the situation is laden with trouble and that
he intends to notify the department at
Washington of the condition of affairs. In
spite of the attempts of the miners COM
