SECRETARY SHt RIM MS VIEWS.
If the Annexation Treaty Is Ratified
in Time Arbitration With
.lnnnn Will Fail

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 6.-Sec-
rotary Sherman arrived tonight from
Amagansett L. l., where the ca air and
rest materially benefited his health. He
said there were no new phases in the Ha-
waiian matter. Regarding Japan's con-
sent to arbitrate the Hawaiian immigra-
ton controversy under unnamed condi-
TONS he said this country wouldn't
guarantee carrying out the award, should
the decision be adverse to Hawaii.
''lf the treaty of annexation is ratified
before arbitration is concluded" said the
Secretary, "then arbitration fails"
Sherman doubts that the American flag
has been raised over Hawaiian Territory.
If this action was taken, he says, it was
done because the Japanese had committed
an overt act. The instructions to Sewall
and Beardsiee only contemp plated their
adoption OF such course in the event Oh
an attempt of Japan to seize the islands.
The Secretary indicated ne had no idea
of trouble between the United States and
Japan, but declared it was the intention
Of the administration to pursue its policy
of annexation no matter what Japan OF
any other nation thought or did.
