Fenor had made the speech he did at

can't that masked the present frank
avowal of annexation and expansion.
There are still some confiding
souls, some belated enthusiasts,
who still talk about humani-
tarianism. And there are others
who are trying to keep the bedraggled
and torn gauze of sentiment over the
sordid greed that kept itself hidden
until the nation was committed to it's

twenty-five or thirty people were present

Minister Stevens had acknowledged that the
revolutionists had overthrow the regularly
constituted go7 eminent The Hawaiian gov
eminent had under its authority several ISL
ards, some of them fifty miles apart 1t
was impossible for Minister Stevens to know
that the revolution had been successful IN

said MIR. Caffrey, was annexation to the

SUGAR TRUST ARRAIGNED.
He said all the conspirators were sugar
men. and the tariff law tfen in operation in
the United States was ininical to their in
terests. He added that a good deal had been
said recently about the interest OF the Sugar
Trust in the pending question of annexation.
The statements were lluSory and Intended to
be such. ''In the course Of my remarks,
said Mr.. Gallery, Il will attempt to show
hereafter that the interests of the American
Sugar Refining company are not better sub
served by having Hawaii as it is than by
having Hawaii annexed. The interests of the
Sugar Trust not better subserved by
Hawaii being Independent and free than by
Hawaii being a part OF the United States, and

are trying to cover their tracks,
At 4 O'Clock Mr.. Cafery, not having con-
cluded his speech, yielded the floor.
The annexation resolutions were laid aside
for the day and Mr.. Hale (Me.) called up the
