THE JAPANESE PROTEST..
Reasons Why Japan Objects to Ha-
wa.ian Annexation.

WASHINGTON. June 2i.-The gist Of
the protest Of Japan TO Hawaiian anneNa-
ton as read to the senate committee on
foreign relations yesterday. Is as follows:
The acquisition of Hawaii by annexa-
ton to the United States would deprive
resident Japanese In the islands Of rights
to which they are entitled under the pres
ent treaty with Hawaii. There are 25oal
Japanese in the islands with large prop
e.ty rights. and under present conditions
they are entitled 10 become citizens %
Hawaii In case OF annexation these
japanese could not become citizens OF the
United States, as decisions of the United
States circuit courts are 10 the effect thac
no Asiatic can become a citizen Of the
United States. BY annexation the Japan
csc now resident IN Hawaii would Do sub
fect TO any measures that might be adopt
ei by the United States. They would l0sc
their right 10 become citizens and vote
The large interests owned by japanese,
citizens in the islands would be greatly
jeopa araized-
Therefore the japanese government
must firmly protest against the proposed
annexation.

Baron Dhnnis Reported Muraesea In
ths, African MllAA.

BRUSSELS. june ai,--The Reformer
says II learns from good source that the
entire phanis expedition to the head
waters OF the Nile. Including Raron
Dhanis himself. has been massacssd.
Baron nhanis last year enlisted 6.0N
men in tie Corgn Free State 10 take part
In n secret expedition. The British gop-
ernment allowed number Of Its husxAr
troops to join the expedition. but II was IT.
ncially denied that any Anglo Belgian
movement had been concerted against the
Mahilsts. The general impression. how
ever. was that this force was to act in e'oli-
junction with the Anglo- Egyptian eSpedt
tion up the Nile TO complete the recon-
quest Of the Sdudan.
At last Dhans was reported TO have ar
rived NJ Lado. north OF the territory of the
Congo FREQ State. on the White Nile. and
325 miles north OF Lake Victoria Nyanxa.
II was then understood that the Dhanis
expedition would push on northward In
the direction of khartour,.
When last heard from TN September the
baron was at Stanley Falls. 60 miles from
the nearest Dervish force.

SO great was the weight of the falling
hail that when Il struck the asphalt pave

TO the height of twenty or thirty feet.
Dogs were struck in the streets and in

The storm came up from she southwest.
DENSE greenish clouds gave warning of
disaster. and as the day had been extreme
ly hot and close. many foresaw a cyclone
and sought shelter in their cellars. The
storm came with heavy wind and
terrific lightning. Then came rain. to-
gether with a deafen!ng crash of hail that
was paralyzing 10 the senses So great
was the damage to telegraph wires that
the city was cut off from the outside world
for several hours.
Topeka tonight looks like city that has
wilhsiood siege OF war guns. There are
not dozen buildings In the town rilat are

THE REPUBLICAN Caucus.
Committee Duty on Hides and Wrap
rcr Tobacco Sustained.

WASHINGTON. June I.-The RepuhI-
can senators decided IN caucus tonight
by q vote of % 10 IL 10 sustain the action
Of the finance committee III placing 4
duty upon hides. but did not pass upon the
question OF the amount OF the duty i'm
posed
The committee was also sustained in
the rate fixed upon imported wrapper to-
bacco. The only other disputed questions
considered were watches and watch jew
els. and upon these the finance commit
tee was reversed. the house rates being
accepted on watches. watch jewels being
made free. The caucus was held IN the
marble room of the senate, and was
we'll attended.
While the discussion was spirited ut
times. the meeting was without especial
incident. The greater part of the time
was given to the proposirion 10 fix duty
on hides Senator Lodge led the con-
test against the action of the finance COM
mittee in taking hides from the free list
and was seconded by Senators Hoar,
Platt. Spooner and others, while Senator's
Nelson Allison Warren and Gear SPOKE
in favor of the duty.
Lodge contended that the duty. If inn
posed would not be OF any consequence
as a revenue item. and that II would add
nothing TO the farmers return on his cat
tie while il would have the effect OF

manufacture, which had grown TO inn
nense proportions under the system of
free hides. He said imports of leather
goods amounted to $4,000 900 per anIum
and asserted that If a stiff duty should
be imposed the industry would be great
ly checked
In reply the Western senators claimed
direct benefit to the farmer from the duty.
and asserted that he was as much en-
titled to the protection IL would give
Were the manufacturers 10 the assistance
they would receive from other duties.
The vote was on the general proposition
TO impose a duty without regard 10 rates
The fixing of these, IL was understood,
should be left to the finance commit zee,
but the expressions were SO general in
favor of the ad valorem rather than the
specific system that the committee will
tenn for the 1ia cents pound rate origi-
nally agreed upon. There was also a gen
eral expression against any increase upon
India tanned goat and sheep skins. which
the manufacturers regard as substantial
victory.
There was only one vote raised IN op-
position TO the proposition to return to the
house schedule on watches and In addit ION
TO admit watch Jewels free of duty. The
finance committee fixed uniform rate of
40 per cent on watches for which the
house provided compound duty. 1t is TO
this compound system that the senate re-
turns The questions of reciprocity. trusts.
Hawaiian sugar. beer. tea and internal
revenue were not discussed
