A careful poll Of the Senate yesterday
by friends If the Hawaiian annexation
treaty has satisfied them that more
than the Necessary two-thirds are
ready Ia vote Tor it, As a result - this
conviction. Chairman Davis. II the
Foreign Affairs Committee. expects To
push the treaty forward and bring il to
vote az early as possible Senator
Pettigrew delivered his expected
speech in opposition. but il was rath-
er a coloTless effort. He attacked the
legality II the Dole government. and
charged it with being under control of
the Hawaiian sugar growers. Neither
it nor they have been under control OF
the American Sugar Trust for some
time. and we are very much mistaken
if that is not why some Of Mr. Petit
crews New York friends are anxious to
defeat annexation. 1t is fortunate for
this country that while this matter
hangs I'm the balance. both England
and Japan have their hands fun else
where. Otherwise we might encounter
more serious obstacles than we now do.
The AnRlo-Sugar lobby is busy. but
evidently cautious and uneasy under
sense of being constantly Swallowed.
1t has more money TO spend than it's
opponents find opportunity to get rid
OF for any useful purpose. Even the
most careless Of statesmen are afraid
TO be seen eating terrapin or drinking
wine az all susceptible Of connection
with the treaty. So the lobby is blue,
All those princely contingent fees ale
turning TO dust and ashes.

The cruiser Brooklyn will make an
extended cruise around the west IN
dies. and gunboats will begin 10 pay
friendly visits To the various ports OF
cuba. This is the substance of the
news given out at the Navy Depart
ment. and il is satisfaCto, on the
whole We have news of another
Spanish defeat, and also that Gen.
BIanco is coming back to Havana I'M
der circumstances promising grave
trouble. Ii is acknowledged on all
hands in Havana that his mission TO
the east has resulted in nothing but
dismal failure He has not succeeded
i'm bribing a single patriot leader, nor
in securing the murder Of one. He
has not fought even skirmish with
the soldiers Of the Republic, and. in
short. his return is one in rldicule and
disgrace as looked upon by the Span
iards There will be ample need for
our naval vessels before many days,
and this is perfectly Wei known at
the State and Navy Departments.
Blanco has played his last card and
lost, The game viii break up, and
break up in an awful row. We are
glad To see even an intimation that
our Government is not likely to be
caught mapping when the explosion
takes place. In the program outlined
for the Brooklyn and the gunboats
there is a sinister suggestion that
whatever is in the wind viii develop
simultaneously at Havana. Matanzas
and hepever Ike Spaniards still main
tain a foothold. Nothing could be
more in accordance with the Fremont
tory indications reported To The Times
by its correspondents in cuba. II is
well for the Government TO be alert
and ready.

The Building Trades Council Decides
Oh February ID as the Date.

The Building Trades Council met
last evening at Electrical Workers
Hall. There were delegates from eight
trades unions and President Lanis was
in the chair. In recognition of the cour-
tesy shown the council by the Central
Labor Union in receiving their repre-
sentative, Mr.. John Weber was well
coined as the fraternal delegate from
that body. Mr.. William Silver was
elected reporter in place of Mr.. Healy
who declined reelection.
The council decided to hold mass
melting in the interest of suffrage for
the residents of the District on Febru-
airy Is, at which time it is expected that
Senator Tillman and other speakers
will deliver addresses. The bill now
before Congress. which requires that
all work done by the District officials

mously Endorsed.

CeIestials May he Forced
- learn English.

Albany. n. Y, Feb. 2.-Chinese laun-
dfymen in a delegation will probably
wait on Mr. Croker at the Democratic
Club in a few days. A direct attack
on the leading industry of Mott and
Pell streets has been made by a Tam
many assemblyman. 1t is nothing less
than a bill requiring laundrymen to
give receipts written in English for all
goods left with them.
John J. Eagan, a Harlem Democrat,
is responsible for the measure. He
does not specify Chinese in it. but it
recites that in all cities of the first
class every laundryman shall give re-
ceipt written in English with Arabic
figures for all articles left to be laun
dered. To violate the law is to incur
a fine of $40 for the first offense, $40 for
the second and $50 for EACH afterward.

Very gloomy advices from Capt. Ray.
representing the War Department on
the Yukon, have been received by the
Adjutant Generals Office. Capt. Kay
declares that not gold discovery has
been made either 10 Alaska or-the Brit
ish Northwest Territory in eight
months Of aii the advanturers who
have gone into the field during the past
year not more than seven-per cent have
earned their living. Hundreds are
scattered along the trails penniless and
destitute. He urges upon the Govern
ment the duty Of preventing all persons
from at:smuiing to 40 iato the gold
regions. excepting only such as are wei
supplied with money and carry pro-
visions sufficient to last two years. The
situation. as described by Capt. Ray.
is worse than the Department expect
ed. and there is no further room for
doubt that the history of this winter in
those unacceptable wilds viii be one or

navigation next summer discloses ii.
II is understood that Secretary Alger

simple proposition, that it is wrong To

1t is likely that any preventive meas

posad by the corporations interested IN
transporting the gold-seekers and their
outfits from the States; but that should

rush ought 10 be stopped.
