known whether War Is to Come.
WARRINGTON, March SIN the consideration
of the moro important question whether the
United States is to be involved In a war with
Spain the status Of the Hawaiian annexation
treaty has been entirely lost sight OF. Last Sat
urday tho Committee on Foreign Relations
held q meeting for tho purpose Of formally
recording the fact that the annexation
treaty Is dead. and to instruct Chairman Davis
to report a joint resolution providing for the
annexation of the islands to the United States.
The members OF the committee were sworn to
secrecy, however. and no publication has yet
been made of what action they took. The
fact Is, that while tho committee de-
cided that the treaty could not get the
necessary two-thirds vote to ratify 1t, and
that an attempt should be made to pass the
Joint resolution providing for annexation, it was
voted TO hold the whole subject in allegiance for
the present until it should be known whether
to come. the members OF the
know that the sentiment of the SEN
alto would change sufficiently to secure
ratification OF the treaty, for the ono reason. II
for no other. that Hawaii would DO absolutely
necessary to the United States as q coaling
station in case Of war. Neither tho treaty nor
the joint resolution will be pressed therefore
until it is known whether war Is to occur. II it
is. the treaty will probably be ratified. II it is
not. the joint resolution will be pressed as
speedily as possible.
