NEW HAWAIIAN TREATY.
Tho Government Planning to Annex tn
Islands.


Islands.
Chicago, Ills, June 13.-The Times
Herald publishes the following Wash.
ington special:
A draft of treaty for the annexa-
tion Of Hawaii to the United States is
being prepared by Judge Dny, the as
sistant secretary of state, and Mr..
Hatch, the Hawaiian minister in
Washington.
1t will be presented to President Nc
kinley for approval soon after he re-
turns to the city.
will Immediately be sent to the Sen-
ate. On the contrary, the President
'wlll adhere to his determination not to
complicnte the tariff situation by tho
Introduction of any foreign questions.
The fact that treaty was actually
drafted has not been known outside of
the State Department and the Hawai-.
ian legation until to-day. The Presi-
dent has not yet committed himself on
the Hawaiian question, but he has Civ
en- the impression that he Is in favor of
annexation. Should he decide to send
the treaty to the Senate during the
present session of Congress, it will be
ready. Should he determine to delay.
the whole matter will be laid aside un-
til Congress reassembles In December.
The acute situation in the diplomatic
relations between Hawaii and Japan
is what has brought the annexation
question to the front at this time.
The draft Of the treaty is being pre-
pared on the lines of the treaty ne
gotiated by Secretary Foster In the
closing days of the Harrison admins
tration.
a leading member of the Senate com
mittee on foreign relations said to-
night that two plans are under consid
eration of the administration. One is
to annex the islands and admit them
into the Union ms the territory of Ha-
wall. The other is to make them a
county of California. No decision has
yet been reached.

indianapolis, Ind, June 1.-THE Su'

ed that the 3-cent street ear fare law Is
constitutional. II relates to Indian
apolis only. In the Federal Court re-
Gently the same law, passed by the last

forcement. The state will Insist on
Scent fare unless the street ear com
pany secures Injunction pending ap-
peal TO the Supreme Federal Court. In
the Hammond eases recently, where
State, Supreme and Federal court dlf-
fered. the Supreme Court OF the Unit
ed States held that II was not Its pol

WHITE TOPAZ.
Beautiful Stones to lie socn at the
Diamond Palace,

Beautiful Stones to lie soen ut the
Diamond Palace.
Every day In the week and every
hour In the day one can see crowds
around the show windows OF THE
CHICAGO DIAMOND PALACE. The
cause of 1t all is the now widely known
White Topaz. The White Topaz, or
carbonated diamonds, have come to be
recognized as the nearest thing on
earth to genuine diamonds, so near in
deed is 1t that the proprietors of tho
DIAMONDPALACE do not hesitate to
place real diamonds in their windows
amidst their display of White Topaz,
and allow the public to pick them out
at the selling price Of the Topaz.
The latter stones have all the lovely
brilliancy of the diamonds, sparkling
steadily and with wonderful fire. The
thousands of these stones In the win
dows forms one of the most gorgeous
displays and has proven an attraction
which is one of the features Of Chi
cago.
In order to find out the advertising
medium best suited to their business.
this enterprising concern offers to send
n genuine White Topaz to all those
who will cut out and send them their
advertisement, which appears else
where in this paper. together with 25c
In stamps.
THE DIAMOND PALACE, like all
successful institutions. has many imi-
tators, who endeavor to sell cheap
rhinestoncs and other pastes claiming
they are topaz. We caution the pub
lie to be careful, us THE DIAMOND
PALACE, American Express building.
Chicago, are the sole importers of these
stones.
