Believed This Week Will SEQ tho Final
Vote on the Tariff in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, July las result Of
the rapid work on the tariff bill during
the day the close Of the long debate in
the senate and the final vote on the bill
is felt tobe very near at hand. Two Of
the most important provisions-those
relating to the Hawaiian treaty Of reci.
procity and the duty on coal-were per.
fected, while another source Of much
conflict-the reciprocity section-was
matured by the finance committee and
presented to the senate. Aside from
these larger items q great many minor
ones which have caused more or less
conflict were disposed of. The Ha-
waiian provision Of the house bill was
restored after very brief debate.
This has the effect Of leaving the Ha.
waiian treaty Of reciprocity in full force
and effect. During the day Mr.. Turpie
lind. spoke in support of the amend
ment for a 2 per cent tax on inherit
ances. His speech was notable for its
picturesque metaphors and the virulence
of his denunciation Of the pending bill.
Mr.. Turpie spoke about two hours and
received close attention owing to the
picturesqueness of his utterances. He
closed with reference to the silver
question, asserting that there was no
more right to abandon the free coinage
of silver than to abandon the free coin.

Japanese Insist They Arc Not After the

I WASHINGTON, June 28.-The jap
anese position on the annexation of
Hawaii by the United States has been
made known from very high source.
The japanese base their opposition to
annexation almost entirely upon the
ground that it is an interference with
the treaty rights Of Japan and complain
especially that the treaty was negotiated
in the face Of the most friendly protesta-
tions from Japan and at time when
the japanese authorities had been led
to believe that no such treaty would be
undertaken. The japanese insist, as
on all former occasions, that the Jap
anese government has not now and
never has had any designs against
Hawaii.

A special despatch from JacksoDville,
Fla, today says, Cuhans were greatly
worried here yesterday over the appear
ance before the grand jury of Thomas
DawIey, an artist who was supposed to
have been on the Three Friends during
her last trip. Dswley refused to ssy
word, however, claiming that he would
be incriminating himself.
The above paragraph will not surprise
MIR. Dawley's many acquaintances In
Providence who are OF the opinion that
his natural element Is TO ne found only
In seas Of trouble aud that he makes
point of never being ,out OF hot water for
any great length of time.
Dswley came to this city about two
years ago and was ut that time political
refugee from Guatemala where he had
teen engaged in an iDsurrection against
something or other.
His FIRST role In Rhode Island was 40 q
type writer agent employed by Gilbert.M.
King, who did business In the industrial
Trust Building. shortly after he went
into business for bimself and got into
over an exchange of typewriter supplies.
King employed as attorney Z. Slocum
| smith, who brought suit against Dawley,
placed couple of keepers In bis office
| and attached enough property to cover
the amount Of his claim. This property
is still in the possession of Deputy Sheriff
wfnsIow, who served the writ.
| A counter suit sgainst King was then
brought by Dawley and matters hung
nre TOR awhile until Dawley went to
George Miikman, who had business
college In Pawtucket and tried to sell
him the typewriters for which he was
agent to take the place of those previ-
ously sold by King. n1ilkman refused
and then il was alleged Dawley slandered
him.
At any rate the Pawtucket Collegs
presi dent sought the services OF attorney
Smith who had Dawley arrested ano
taken tn Cranston on an action of slandel
which was never tried however, SIS MIX
