Annexation Resolution Passed b.
Transmississippi Congress.

Annexation Resolution Passed by
Transmississippi Congress.
SALT LAKE, Utah, July 15.-The
session of the Transmississippi Con-
gress today was notable because of the
work accomplished. William J. Bryan
acted as president Of the body, and was
given an ovation when he took the
chair. Resolutions favoring the an
nexation of Hawaii and the construc-
tion of the Nicaraguan canal were
adopted.
The Hawaiian question came up at
the evening session in the form of the
following resolution:
Resolved, That the Transmissis-
sippi Congress favors the prompt an
nexation of the Hawaiian Republic to
the United States on the grounds of
national policy, prestige and CONNER
cial necessity, thereby removing the
possibility of this great stronghold in
midocean being controlled by any for
eign power as a constant menace to
our country"
This resolution was introduced by
the delegate from Wyoming.

No ALLIANCE FORMED.
Deniel of the Report that spain Has

Denial of the Report that Spain Has
Joined With Japan.
Z LONDON, July 16.-The Daily Nails
Paris correspondent. says: United
States ambassador Porter assures me
that the statement that an alliance ex-
listed between Spain and Japan Is quite
unfounded. The Spanish Embassy also
declares the report to be a canard.
The Daily Chronicle says it believes
that the rumor of the formation of an
alliance between the Governments or
Spain and Japan against the United
States is a bogy intended to frighten
America into annexing Hawaii before
Congress adjourns, because it is be-
lieved that if the Islands are annexed
now Japan will not move in the mat
ter, but if action is delayed Japan will
perhaps take action.
Inquiry at the Foreign Office In Mad
rid develops the fact that nothing 1s
known regarding the reported alliance
between Spain and Japan.

edge it's Receipt.
NEW YORK, July ia dispatch
to the Herald from Washington says:
The administration has practically ig-
nored the latest protest submitted by
Japan in opposition to the annexation
of Hawaii by the United States. 1t is
understood that the State Department
has determined to make no reply be-
yond a simple acknowledgment of its
receipt.
It is admitted by State Department
officials that the protest is very st1f
in it's character. Japanese and Hawai-
ian matters were considered during the
Cabinet meeting today, but there was
no discussion of the report OF an alll-
ance between Japan and Spain.
The battleship Oregon, now on her
way to San Francisco, will remain at
that port for several weeks, and then
go to Honolulu.
Minister Buck is at Toxic, and mas
been advised by the State Department
of the signing of the annexation
treaty. It is understood that ne mas
been aware of the suggestion OF arbl-
tration submitted to Japan by the Ha>
waiian authorities, and 1t IS expected
that he will exercise the friendly OF
fees Of this Government to secure the
acceptance Of the offer.

sion is to be resisted and international
trouble is to be suppressed. Should

to carry out the instructions given to
Rear Admiral Beardslee, directing
that officer in event of trouble to land
bluejackets and marines and hoist the
American flag.
Written instructions given to Ad-
miral Miller are of the usual character.
They direct him to take proper meas
ures for the protection of American in
terests should they become endan-
gered. Otherwise he has not line
upon which to proceed and must de-
pend upon his memory to carry out
instructions Admiral Miller will be
accompanied by Lieut. Philip Andrews
as his flag secretary, and Lieut.. T. S.
Rodgers as his flag lieutenant.

Interested Protest to Sec

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The forestry
proclamation issued by President
Cleveland is meeting with the vigorous
opposition of some of the congressional
delegations from the sections inter-

Representative Mondell of Wyoming
and Representative Gamble of South
DAKOTA had an interview with Secre-
tary Francis during the afternoon at
which they protested against the
proclamation. They said it was a
manifest injustice to the people there
and that it set up a timber region
where none was needed. They con-
tended that there was no danger OF
Exhausting the Timber supply.
The action was pointed out as retard-
ing the growth and settlement of the
states interested and shutting off the
development of great resources Secre-
tary Francis, together with Arnold
Hague, one of the commissioners,
talked over the matter very frankly,
explained that it was necessary to pre-
vent the disastrous indiscriminate de-
astruction of timber and suggested that
members might secure proper remedy,
if there was any needed. in legislation.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a. Nervous col
