The Hawaiian Question

Washington, May 13.-The House
committee on foreign affairs met to-
day to consider the Hawaiian annexa-
tion resolution, but finally deferred
the vote until next Thursday. The
delay was upon the request of the
minority. The committee stands II
to in favor of annexation. There
was little done by the committee at
the session, aside from the examina-
tion of Lieutenant General Schofield,
u. S. A., retired; Admiral John G..
Walker, u. S. NJ, both of whom warm
ly advocated the annexation. Ex-
Minister Lorin A. Thurston, of
Hawaii, was also present.
General Schofe1d was asked as to
the ost of fortifying the islands and
said he believed $5OO,OOO would be all
that was necessary to establish ade-
quate Notifications.
Admiral Walker concurred in the
views expressed by General Schofield.
He said that the expedition now being
organized by the government to go to
the Philippines would have to stop at
Honolulu, and it could not stop there
if Hawaii was neutral, and that Ha-
waii neutrality would be extremely
injurious to the United States. Gener-
al Schofield said that if the expedi-
ton of troops now being fitted for the
occupation of the Philippines should
have to go straight through without
stopping to coal at Honolulu which is
about one-third of the distance.
The amount of extra coal that would
thus have to be carried would have
displaced approximately one-third of
the cargo.

ASSIGNMENT OF VOLUNTEERS

With view to systematizing the
great work of mobiliziug the forces
and putting the m in services the War
department has planned a scheme
which, it is believed, will very mucn
hasten the work of getting the men
together and equipping them, while
avoiding any congestion of the rail
road traffic such as is always to be ap-
pretended in cases of war.
Instead of allowing all the troops
called for from particular state to be
assembled and broken in at the rem
devious, the department is instruct
ing its mastering officers to complete
the organization of the regiments as
rapidly as possible, and as soon as one
is organized to report the fact to the
department, when that regiment will
be ordered at once to the point select
ed for concentration. In this way,
the government will be relieved great
ly in the distribution of stores, which
will be called for only as fast as they
are needed. The men also will be
more amenab1e to discipline when
quickly transferred to the concentra-
ton points outside their own states.
1t is the expectation that the first reg
iments organized and reported from
the states will be sent to Chattanooga,
thence going to Cuba via Mobile,
Tampa, New Orleans and Galveston,
for expeditions will be dispatched
from each of these points.

TERRIBLE HAVOC WROUGHT In
THE ARKANSAS VALLEY.

Van Buren,, Ark. = The worst
flood known since 1874 is devast-
ing the Arkansas valley, and towns
along the banks of that stream are
submerged, while many farm build.
iugs are af1oat. One-fourth of the
residence part of this city is eight
feet under water. Riverside and Bab-
ylon, two densely settled suburbs, are
under water and several large resi-
dences have fallen into the river.
Every foot of dry land is crowded
with household goods. Thousands OF
people have been driven from their
homes and are being sheltered here.
The Missouri, Kansas s. Texas, and
Iron Mountain systems are tied up in
the Indian Territory. Hundreds OF
thousands of dollars damage has beer
done to plantations in Crawford
county.

A Leading Broker Caught by the
Plurry I'm wheat

Chicago.-One failure has been
recorded here as the result of the
fluctuations in the wheat market and
the man to go under was Robert Lind
blom, one of the best known operators
on the Board of Trade, aud president
of the Civil Service commission. I'm
mediateiy after the close of business
this afternoon he made an assignment
in the county court, the assets and ia
biiities being fixed at 500. 900 and
s12S, 900 respectively. The failure of
Mr.. Lindblom was entirely unexpect-
ed, even among his close business as
sociates. 1t is attributed to the con-
dition of the wheat market, and the
fact that he was suddenly called upon
during the day to provide margins for
trades in barley amounting to SO, 900.
MIR. Lindblom found himself unable to
respond to the call and decided to
make an assignment in the county
court, so as to provide equally for all
his creditors.
