REED FOR ANNEXATION.
The Hawaiian Question is Now
as Good as Settled.

Washington, Feb. 7.-Speaker Reed
is in favor of the annexation of Hawaii
and he wants it accomplished quickly.
This is new position for Mr.. Reed,
for although he has not declared him
self publicly on the pending annexation
treaty, his close friends understood
that he was opposed to it. He made it
known to them that while he would not
throw any obstacles in the way of the
consideration of the subject if it should
become necessary to bring it before the
house, he was personally in doubt as to
the wisdom of acquiring territory 1000
miles away from our own coast.
1t is reliably stated that the speaker
considers it impossible to get the 60
votes in the senate necessary to ratify
the pending treaty. Having made up
his mind that the treaty cannot be rati-
fed he is anxious that vote demon
strating this may be speedily taken
and that both houses begin considers
ton at once of the Morgan bill.
He mas promised to push the bill
through the house in less than a week
if the friends of the treaty will consent
to the abandonment of that instrument.
With the experience of the last few
months showing how completely the
speaker controls the affairs of the
house no one doubts for moment that
he will be able to fulfill his promise and
Hawaiian annexation, therefore, it is
thought, is sure to be brought about
during the present session OF congress.
Senator Davis is not prepared to
abandon the treaty, but if it becomes
apparent to him before the end of the
week that he cannot get the two votes
Stlll necessary for ratification, he will
join heartily in the movement to bring
the Morgan bill to an early vote
Speaker Reed has two reasons for his
change of views. He wants an early
adjournment of congress, which he
does not consider possible as long as
the treaty is hanging in the balance,
and he wants to use Hawaiian annex
alton as one of the great achievements
of the Republican party in the coming
congressional campaign

TREMORS
Are Felt by Hundreds of Prom
inent New Workers
Because Boss Tweed's "COnfes-
siOn'' is Coming Out.

New York, Feb. There is at least
one man in Greater New York today
who holds the happiness, honor, and
fortune of a great many people in the
hollow of his hand. This man is w. e.
D. Stokes. Mr.. Stokes came into pos
session of all the private papers of
William NJ. Tweed several years ago.
He has made a thorough study of them
with the idea of writing a book on the
subject.
According to his story, more than $11,-
600 900 was paid out by the Boss for
brides and buying up individuals that
other people to this day, know nothing
about The evidences of these pay
ments are still in existence with the
endorsements of the parties directly
concerned.
The surrender of Tweed by the Span
ish government after his escape from
Ludlow street Jail is described by the
papers in possession of Mr.. Stokes as
political work to secure the election of
a Republican president. Mr. Stokes
says also that there is a real confession
of Tweed in existence, which is likely
to be published and which is bound to
create the iveliest kind of a stir. He
says Tweed's diary is the most interest
ing of all the papers. 1t contains refer
ences to every one that called on him
and his business, showing that nearly
every one could be treated with on
cash basis. The papers were delivered
to Mr. Stokes by a man whom he had
befriended.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal
Chicago, Feb. Z

Cn1caSO, f'eD. Z.
WHEAT-Opening prices for wheat to-
day were a shade over Saturdays close
May starting at 95G951sc. The strength
was due to an advance of 1s09zd at Liver
pool. From the start, however, there was
a strong pressure to sell, and though bull
brokers made a show of supporting the
market at first, they soon withdrew and
the price quickly dropped under the Hqui-
dation to 94a4e. Worlds shipments show
ed a decided falling on-5.513,0OO bushels,
against 1854, 900 bushels the week before.
Outside of this and the Liverpool advance
the news was bearish- Northwestern re-
ceipts were heavy, SOL cars against 4S7
cars last week and 511 cars a year ago.
California reported liberal rains, the In
dia wheat crop was reported splendid and
a surplus was promised from Australia.
Reports from the seaboard of a large ex-
port inquiry caused a better feeling and
May recovered to 941k@5kc, but eased OF
again weak late cables from Liverpool.
CORN-Corn was dull and a little easier
on liberal receipts. The country offerings
were reported large. May opened shade
lower at 29a291sc and sold at 2S7s@29c.
OATS-Oats We're fairly active and
easier with corn. Receipts were liberal,
422 cars. May opened unchanged at 245sc
and declined to 2414c.
VISIONS-ProvisiOns were strong,
though not especially acJVe- Inc hoS
market was firm, which helped prices.
There was some outside demand. May
pork opened TIC higher at $1035 sold at
$40 3215 and advanced to $1O.371a. May lard
opened sc higher at $4.9715, sold a 81. 95
and advanced to IS. May ribs opened sc

Warming to Insurance AGENTS.

Insurance Commissioner Webb Nc
Nall today received a copy of a letter
which is being sent out to insurance
agents in Kansas by Lee Clarke & Co.
one of the firms of insurance brokers
that have been flooding the state with
letters to insurance agents lately The
letter bears the address''Any Insurance
Agent" and states that the firm has
special facilities for writing risks on
saw mills, grist mills, flour mills. cotton
gins and country hotels and stores and
will give any agent 20 per cent for plac-
ing business with it. Commissioner Nc
Nall wishes to warn agents that this is
one of the bogus firms, and that their
time and efforts will be wasted in plac-
ing business with such a concern.

SUNDAY BLUE LAW.
Toledo, Ohio, Closed Up Tight
Sacred Concert Promoters
Nabbed.

Toledo O., Feb. Toledo was closed
up tight Sunday.
The saloons were closed at IL o'clock
Saturday night by order of Mayor
Jones, and instead of the usual open
Sunday they were closed all day.
Tobacco stores, restaurants, news
stands, drug stores, fruit stands, milk
dealers and everything of that charac-
ter come under the same provision. Ar
rests were made upon the slightest vio-
lation of the orders.
By special arrangement, the milk de-
livery men were to have until o'clock
Sunday morning to complete their
routes, but those who were unable to
finish by that time were arrested and
dragged off to the police station.
In the afternoon the Toledo Marine
band gave a scored concert at the Val
entine theater. No arrest was made
until the performance was over. In the
streets in that vicinity were perhaps
$4,000 persons awaiting developments.
Notice was served upon all parties in
any way interested to be on hand when
the cases were called.
Many had difficulty in getting their
morning papers. A neWSdeaIer in a
hotel moved his papers to the desk and
placed box near by and customers
were given to understand in a quiet
way that they might pick out such pa
perS as they wanted, and put the mon
ey in the box.
At the drug stores not a thing was
sold except on a physicians prescrip-
ton, even in urgent cases.
After the evening performance in the
theaters general arrests were made.
Mayor Jones today gave assurances
that he had been misunderstood in his
order.
THE police commissioners are re-
spOnsible for this action" he added,
but so far as can learn the order has
been generally obeyed with but little
trouble

GOV. osRoRN,s FoRTUNE.
It Was Well Taken Care of and Will
Not Fall Short of S 100000.

There is considerable speculation
about the fortune of the late Governor
Osborn which will be inherited by his
son, Ned D. Osborn. A conservative
Topeka business man places the
amount at upwards of $1,000 900. He
owned a Kansas avenue business prop
erty worth $50 900, a farm in Shawnee
county worth $12 900, stock in the Cent
raj National bank amounting to 100000,
a similar amount of stock in the Mt.
Carmel Coal company and about so, 900
worth in a Pittsburg coal company. He
owns some stock in a St. Louis bank
and has other property in various local
tiles which will make his fortune rather
more than less than 500, 000 The only
heir so far as known, unless Governor
Osborn has otherwise made provision
in his will, is young Ned Osborn, his
ONLY son

DON'T BELIEVE IN IT.
State Auditor Morris Says the Matter
Should Go to a Regular Session.

Gov. Leedy does not have the support
Of all the state officers in his project for
a special session.
State Auditor Morris is opposed to
the special session. He said:
Necessities some times demand that
legislature be called in special session.
but I am inclined to believe that no
such emergency now exists"
W. E. Bush, secretary OF state, said:
while 1 have doubted the wisdom of
calling the legislature together in ex-
ira session, yet if the governor can be
assured that the members will come
together and pass a railroad bill which
will mean something to the farmers and
business men of the state, 1 would not
feel justified in opposing it. However
if they are to do nothing but pass such
a law, it would be better to save the
expense and wait for the regular ses-
sion; but if they will also pass a cOrpor-
alton law similar to the one introduced
last session by Senator Harris, and re-
peal the metropolitan police law, it Will
be dollars in the pockets of the people
and relieve US of an institution that has
been a source of trouble and reproach
ever since it was inaugurated."

ORDERED TO PAY UP.
Commissioner McNan Looking After
the Valued Policy Law.

Commissioner of Insurance Webb Nc
Nall took another step in his move to en-
force the valued policy law today. A
short time ago the Western Assurance
company sent in a report of a partial loss
on the property of John Terrence of Che
tOpa, Kan, and to investigate the matter
Commissioner McNalI wrote Mr. Terrence
asking him the extent of his loss. The
reply was received today, in which Mr..
Terrence stated that his property was
entirely destroyed, but the company re-
fused to settle for the face amount of the
policy. but did settle for an amount so
near the face amount that it would be
Improbable for him to take the matter
into court.
Commissioner NGcNaI at once wrote the
company ordering them to pay the bal
ance OF the face amount of the policy.
