IT MAY MEAN ABROGATION OF
THE TREATY.
The Senate Committee Reports the
acknowledgements of the Treaty
Observation-Disclosures Position.

uASIIINGTON, May 4.-No greater
surprise was ever sprung in tariff
bill than the virtual abrogation of the
Hawaiian Reciprocity Treaty, in a
measure submitted to the Senate by
the Finance Committee today, and
when it was known that the sugar
schedule was not completed until long
after midnight this morning, and the
clause was practically what the Trust
desired, the friends of Hawaii realized
that ihs action was taken to endeavor
to enforce a compromise on the lines
shown in Senator Perkins interview
in the Chronicle two weeks ago.
SO many Senators had received per-
sonal assurances that the treaty
clause would stay-Senators Frye and
publican members of the committee,
and even the trust lobbyists had given
up hope of securing it--that nothing
but CONSERVATION was shown on every
face when the action was disclosed
Immediately there were plans laid
for putting the clause back into the
BILL and Frye, Lodge, Morgan and
others made ready for fight. All eX-
press the belief that there will be no
other result than victory for them.
Senator Perkins today defined his
position on the Hawaiian reciprocity
treaty in so far as it relates to the
tariff bill. He said:
'I do not think the tariff bill is the
proper place for such action as the
abrogation of a commercial conven-
ton. I shall vote to put into the tar
iff bill the clause continuing it in
force, as it was in the Dingley bill,
and have no doubt but that this will
be done. The proper place to consider
such matters is, in a separate bill or
joint resolution, and the matter will
so come before the Senate soon in
that way. 7 am not prepared to say
just how / shall vote, but surely I will
endeavor to have the treaty clause put
back into the tariff bill as it was in
the Dingley measure"
Hawaiians now sojourning in this
city express surprise and regret at
the action of the Senate Finance CON-
mittee in striking out of the tariff
bill the clause eXempting Hawaiian
imports from the operations of the
act
Former Minister 1hurston, now
here on a special mission, said the alb
rogation of the reciprocity treaty
meant disaster and ruin to the bust
ness interests in the Islands. 1t would
create universal smash-up in a
business way until things were put on
a new basis. Inc treaty was fully as
advantageous to the United States as
to the Hawaiians.
The sugar schedule is not entirely
satisfactory to the beet sugar men.
They wanted specific duty all the
way through. Senator White said to.
night that he would fight this provi.
sion at length, but believed it proba.
BILE that there was strength enough
in the Senate to put through the
clause as the committee framed it.
On the part of annexation, it is the
belief that nothing will be done with
Hawaiian matters until there is sent
to Congress by the President a mes
sage urging action looking to closer
relations. That there is sentiment at
the Executive Mansion in favor OF
Hawaii is believed by all who have
investigated the subject.

atthat. Our Carriage Whips

amorous SWANS to 60 a moon

We have a dandy looking
Dog Cart that is just the
thing for a drive around the
park; it is easy riding, COM
Portable, with plenty of room
for two. 1t is the only one Of
it's kind in Honolulu, and as
we are not in the carriage
business, we do not intend to
get any more, so you do not
run the risk of having the
same style as everybody else.
Will be sold very cheap.

WHAT SOME STATESMEN THINK
OF THE MATTER.
\ General Opinion Expressed That
the Treaty viii Remain in Force,
Unless Specially Abrogated.


A number of Senators have eN-
pressed themselves upon the effect of
dropping the treaty clause out of the
tariff bill.
Senator Faulkner though that the
Republicans would reinsert IN the bill
the exemption. and that the treaty
would stand He said that the Re-
publcans were too much in favor OF
annexation to consent to an abrogd-
ton of this treaty.
Il am sure" said Senator Frye of
Maine, "that this will not stand. | do
not think that the committee intend
ed that it should. They knew that a
resolution to abrogate the treaty
would be offered and they thought it
best to leave the matter open. | am
very sure that the exemption clause
will be reinstated and that the treaty
will not be abrogated."
Senator Hanna said that not being
constitutional lawyer he could not
say what the effect on the Hawaiian
reciprocity treaty would be, but said
that he was opposed to the abrogation
of the treaty and did not believe that
it would be abrogated.
Senator Pettigrew, who is opposed
to the reciprocity treaty, thinks that
direct abrogation would be neces-
main in effect.
Senator Perkins, speaking of the
Hawaiian treaty feature, said that he
was certain as to what position he
woul. take as to the abrogation of
the treaty, but he was inclined to the
opinion that the treaty should be
modified in some respects, as this
country got the worst end of reci-
procity. He was, however, opposed to
anything being put in or taken out
of the tariff bill which would affect
the treaty.
He thought that the exemption
clause should be restored and would
be restored in the bill, and that the
question of abrogating the Hawaiian
treaty should come up as an indepen-
dent proposition, to be treated on its
merits, without any connection with
the tariff bill.
Senator Pritchard of North Caro-
lima said that he was in favor of sus-
tanning the Hawaiian reciprocity
agreement.
Representative Moody said. as to
the Hawaiian treaty, that he did not
believe that the treaty could be abro-
gated by the indirect method of leav-
ing out the exemption clause.
Senator Frye will lead fight
against making any change whatever
"If," he said, "any attempt is made tc
abrogate the Hawaiian treaty we will
fight it to the end, and we will beat
it." Senator Lodge is equally emphat
! ic. The Hawaiian treaty must
!
that there is majority in the Senate
in favor of repeating it, Senator
Morgan also said that he would fight
to the last against abrogation, and he
stated that today the Senate would be
asked to appropriate $4,000 for the
improvement of the Pearl River Har
Dor in the Hawaiian Islands, which. il
will be remembered, was granted tc
the United States in the treaty now
under discussion. 81 have no doubt,
said he, that the Senate will agree to
this appropriation and thus will un'
doubtedly recognize our interests in
Hawaii. If we take possession of the
harbor, there is no reason why the
reciprocity treaty should be modified
or repealed. I do not believe it viii

Primarily because it never gets

reasons, because of its lightness of

its arrangement for doing tabulated
