We are frequently asked TO give an

lMPOTENT TO PUNISH,
Secretary Long Does What He Can to Save
the Credit OF the Navy.

WAsHNGToN, June %. Secretary
Long is unwilling that a naval officer
shall be permitted TO send letters to
civilians threatening to use his official
position for personal advantage and
still escape punishment. For this rea-
son he has disapproved the findings of
the court-martial in the case of Lieut..
Fidelio S. Carter, attached to the re-
ceiving ship Independence, at the
Mare Island navy yard, California, and
has expressed his disapproval in severe
language
Lieut.. Carter was accused of sending
letter to a civilian threatening that
if the civilian did not withdraw let
ter which the lieute uant enormously
supposed he had sent to the navy de-
partment making charges against the
officer, the latter would have his son
arrested and tried for fraudulent en-
listment The facts were proved, but
the court acquitted the officer, a rather
paradoxical conclusion.
Secretary Long holds that the effect
of this action is to constitute declara-
ton that the writing of such letters
does not constitute such conduct as is
unbecoming an officer and gentleman,
and scandalous conduct A covert
threat to use knowledge of wrongdo-
ing of a subordinate to shield or pro-
mote ones own interest, he says, is
most reprehensible and unbecoming,
wherefore the findings of the court are
The effect of the secre-
tary's action is to release the officer,
as through not approving of the &C
quittal, the secretary has no authority
to order second trial for the same al
legged offense.

There were many expressions of sat
isfacton that the carriage of the
United States special envoy, Mr.. Reid,
had been so warmly received. 1t was
considered largely due to President
McKinley's cordial letter in congratu-
lating her majesty upon the sixtieth
anniversary of her accession to the
throne.
Every intention to honor the United
States special envoy has been dis
played. For this reason MIR. Reid took
Princess Victoria Of Wales in to din
ner Monday evening, sitting at the
table opposite the duke of SaXeCoburR
and Gotha,
In addition Queen Victoria received
Mrs. Reid most cordially, and at the
reception in the ball room she gave
the wife of the United States special
envoy her hand to kiss. The Canadian
premier, Mr.. Wilfred Laurier, met with
an especially warm reception at the
colonial stands opposite the Horse
Guards He afterwards said to a re-
porter for the press; "a was greatly
impressed by the splendor of the days
ceremonies, and by the enthusiastic
ovations from the crowds.

NOTHING TO OBJECT TO


In the Annexation of the Hawaiian Islands
by the United States.
WASHINGTON, June 23.-Neither the
Chinese nor the Portuguese minister
has made protest against the Ha-
waiian treaty of annexation, nor has
either of them received any instruc-
tons on the subject from his govern
ment. Viscount de Santa Brvso, the
Portuguese minister, says he has no
doubt but that the Portuguese COLONY
in Hawaii will be as well protected
under the United States as under the
present regime on the islands. and he
sees no possible reason why Portugal
should lodge protest against the
treaty
The Chinese minister is inclined to
think that the clause in the treaty ex
Guiding the further immigration of
Chinese to the islands is unnecessary
as the exclusion act would apply to
them If our jurisdiction were extended
to Hawaii. China has assented to the
policy of exclusion, and he sees no
necessity for comment on that score.
There are about %, 200 Cinnamon in
Hawaii.
