The Treaty VIII Probably BE Sent to the
Senate To-Day.
WASHINGTON, June l6.-Ihe treaty
for the annexation of Hawaii to the
United States viii be sent to the
senate by President Mckinley to-day
unless present plans are changed. The
one point of Importance in which the
treaty differs from the convention ne
gotiated by Secretary Foster in Presi-
dent Iiarrison's administration is the
omission Of any provision for ex-Queen
LiliuokalaHi and the Princess Kaiu-
lani. 1t is understood that any objee-
tion that might have been expected to
the annexation of the islands, based
on the large proportion of coolies in
the population, has been forestalled by
an article not only prohibiting the fur
Their emigration of such laborers to the
Hawaiian islands, but also prohibiting
the coming of any Of the Chinese from
the islands to other parts Of the United

AsHEvILLE, n. c., June 15,-An IN
expected incident Of President McKin-
ley's trip developed yesterday after
noon when it became known to news
paper men accompanying the party
that permission to enter Biltmore
house, George W, Vanderbilt's splen-
did mansion, had been refused to them
while extended to other members of the
party. Mr. Vanderbilt is abroad and his
representative. Mr.. McNamee, is with
him. In the absence of both the es-
tate is governed by E. j. Harding, who
is said to be an Englishman by birth.
Mr. Porter notified Mr.. Harding that
the president had authorized him to
say that if the newspaper men were
barred from the mansion he would not
step his foot inside the estate. This
brought things to a crisis and Mr..
Harding capitulated with the best
grace possible, and the newspaper men
were admitted to the mansion on the
same footing as the president and his
cabinet

"If people ever were enthusiastic
over basket ball the audience at the
game in the Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium
last night was. From the very start
of the game everybody watched each
move of play and not through the
forty minutes play did their interest
wane. The game was the toughest
exhibition of basket ball ever seen in
this city, and for all the roughness
there was but one foul called during
the evening. The visiting team great
ly outweighted the local players and
as to roughness had vantage from
this point. However, the players
were frequently cautioned against
roughness and everything possible
done to prevent such playing.
The local team does not usually
play such ball and found it hard to
resist the onslaughts of the heavier
team, which has evidently been coach.
