Judge Hartwell said he did not attach
much significance to the train talk.
All who had spoken to him while he
was travelling were in favor OF annexa-
ton. He says this was to him only
natural. as opponents would scarcely
seek him out TO give him their views.
The Hawaiians had reached Wash
ington and were all at well known
hotel when General Hartwell was in
the Capital He remarks that they
will have no trouble in getting full
hearing. They have sympathiZers in
both branches of Congress who will
see that they are permitted to have
their full say under the most favorable
circumstances. General Hartwell din
ed with an old college chum who is a
member of the House and asked if the
Democratic members, of which the ac-
quaintance is one, had caucussed upon
the Hawaiian question. The reply was
that they had not and later it was
learned that they had decided not to
handle this particular question in eau
Gus if possible to avoid this course.
This simply shows that there is too
much of division to force united ac-
ton. excepting an extreme situation is
developed as the session progresses.
Mr. Thurston is working very hard.
He is called to different parts of the
country TO make addresses and occu-
pies the remainder of his time in the
preparation and distribution of litera-
ure Much result has been shown
from his efforts. Minister Hatch and
Secretary Castle of the Legation at
Washington are laboring earnestly at
all hours and are pleased with the out
look. The Legation is in the Arlington
hotel and may be said to be well To-
Gated. Mr. Castle lives in the same
hotel
General Hartwell concludes that it is
likely the treaty may be disposed of, or
that one stage of its consideration may
be had in executive session of the Sen
ate. The Honolulu man believes that
the discussion will be lengthy, that the
entire ground will be gone over in de-
tail There is to be the very fullest
debate Not all of the debate can be
confined to executive session, for the
reason that some of the Senators will
be anxious to be heard publicly. Gen
eral Hartwell is one of the latter-day
who have faith and confid-
ence in the Senate of the United States.
He scorns the talk of purchase of its
members or of the possibility of it's
ing any sort of undue influence over
them.

BENNINGTON WON.
Baltimore Men Beaten in Three
Straight Races.

baltimore Men bSdlSn In nrSS
Straight Races.
The Baltimore siren shrieked in vain
Saturday forenoon and the sweetness
therefor was lost on the marine air, for
in the three acquatic events-the cut
ter. ash lighter and dingey races-her
crews were badly beaten by the men
from the Bennington.
First race-Ten-oared cutter. The
Bennington boat shot ahead at the
start and kept increasing the distance
between the two boats all the way out
around the spar buoy, coming in a
full minute ahead. At the end, the
Bennington men seemed perfectly fresh
while the Baltimores showed signs of
fatigue, this partly on account of their
boat being the heavier of the two.
Second raee-Ash lighters propelled
by ten scoop shovels and two steering
oars. The course was from the bow
Of the Bennington around the buoy off
the railroad wharf and return. The
Bennington men pulled an even and
telling stroke, while the Baltimores
were very erratic. The former won
easily.
Third race-Dingey -four oars). The
course was out around the buoy at the
entrance to the channel and return.
The Baldmores had the lead and kept
it until the home stretch, when their
choppy stroke began to tell and the
Benningtons forged slowly ahead, win
ing by about 20 seconds.
After the third race field sports of al
kind were INDUCED in aboard the Bal
timore.

Blueiacket Hurt.

Joseph, colored bluejaeket of the U.
S. S. Bennington sustained severe ac-
cident while riding in the vicinity of
Kapiolani park Saturday afternoon. He
was riding a livery stable horse and
was galloping around the turn to Ma
kee Island when the girth broke and he
fell to the ground with the saddle. His
left arm struck the ground in such a
manner as to cause bad break. He
was picked up by some of his mates
and sent to the hospital.

At kaWaiahao.

The regular quarterly exercises of the
Kawaiahoa Sunday schools took place
in Kawaiahao church yesterday morn
ing, the regular sermon giving place to
these. The feature of most interest
was a class of Gilbert Islands boys and
girls, SO in all, who sang in four differ
ent languages of the South Seas. This
is the first time that class Ct the kind
has ever been formed here. Credit is
due Samoan who is the teacher of the
little Gilbert Islanders.

suls. Dureen left, no one knows just
when. No one is certain where ne
went, but he will probably materialize
soon enough now that there is a pros
pect for getting some money from
the Government.
As the reporter for the Advertiser
understands it, without getting any in
formation from State house people on
the subject, Dureell's is the only one
of the many claims that has been or
will be substantially recognized by the
Government and this one only for the
reason that the man was treated harsh
ly while Marshal Hitchcock was look
ing for information.

aaid. Phillips visited her almost daily,
his arilur nsver apparently ahating, anu
they agreed to be married on tho 9TH OF

day, Miss Schnnloher alleged that
Phillips requested that the approach
ing event be postponed until juno both,
and the prospective hride agreed to his
request. When the postponed Wedding
day arrived Miss Schnnleber said that
Phillips refused TO marry her and broke
or the engagement Miss Schumacher

The defendant Phillips gives quite a
different version OF the story in his
Affidavit OF defence. lie says that, at
the time tho suit WIS brought, he had
only hern engaged TO be married to the
plaintiir about three months; that be
did not break tho engagement, and had
no intention of dung so at the time she
mentioned or at any other time. lie
further says that he did call on her or
juno Goth last to arrange for a post
ponement Of the marriage for u little
while for REASONS which he did moi
then caro- to explain, and that she
acquiesced iu the postpoDement, though
expressing her disappointment, anG
Phillips left her on cordial terms.
Three days later, no continues. be
came TO this city to market, intending
to call on her before no left town,
when, to his surprise, be was arrested
on capiaa in tho present action; that,
on tho Same day, when he was released
he called on her and explained the cir
cumstances, and reminded her that h'
| had acted in gond faith, and offered t.
marry her at once, but she refused tt
! accept him, although it was only tvs
day after the time formerly set for tht

that he is a man of large means.

eon OF Baltimore against Thomas Nc
Corkls, president of the Delmarvia
Telephone Co., the following statement
is made by the company:
The facts are that mir. Atkinson re-
signed from the dictatorship of tho Del

1897, and the company holds his letter
Of resignation. Tho statement which
appeared to the effect that injustice
was being done him because his name
was crossed of the published list Of
directors Is therefore trivial and untrue.
lie has no claim or right to have his
name appear as director. His resig-
nation was voluntary and on the plea
that he hal not time to attend tho
boards meetings. The company further
claims that the apparatus which he
agreed to furnish the Demarvia Tele.
phone Go. was not up to standard, did
not stand the tost OF inspection and was
