POSITION OF SPEAKER REED.
How He Really Stands on the Question o
Hawaiian Anne xatiOn.

Washington, May 30-The conflicting
reports as to the attitude of Speaker
Reed upon present consideration of the
Hawaiian resolutions in the house. and
the persistent rumors of existing differ
ences between the speaker and Republic
can leaders in the house. has prompted
the following brief statement Of the
speakers position. 1t was furnished by
one who has reviewed the entire situa-
ton with him: THE question is not Of
Hawaiian annexation at all. Probably
a majority Of the Republicans of the
house are fer it, IL obliged to vote; but
many prefer not to have the question
up because ii will lead to delay. keep
congress here 81 summer and prevent
representatives from looking after their
districts. and at the same time not
annex Hawaii.
'All the talk about quarrels between
Dingley and Hit and the speaker Is the
result Of over-Zeal of those interested.
The main thing is for the congress to
pass the revenue bill, make the appro-
priations, avoid a long session. free
Washington from local politics and
leave the. president and his advisers
time to prosecute the war to a success
full conclusion. Annexations will then
take care Of themselves"

THRAWLEY MURDER CASE.
Substance Of the Evidence Produced

Substance Of the Evidence Produced by
the State.
Richmond. Ind. May s0.-It is the
general impression of those who have
been in daily attendance at the trial
that the state has made a strong case.
and it is not believed that the de-
tense will be able to show that the
killing was in self-detense. as Thrawley
has maintained. The state has shown
by a half dozen or more witnesses that
the body of Shoemaker, as il lay in the
road. directly in front of the Thrawley
home. showed TO signs of having fallen
after a struggle. The snow was fivs,
inches deep. and the absence Of foot
prints. excepting those OF Shoemaker.
caused the state to give emphasis to
the theory that Thrawley was at least
eight or ten feet away when he fired
the fatal shot. Tracks leading down
from the Thrawley gs,e to within eight
or ten feet of the body Were found by
various witnesses.
The fact that the face Of Shoemaker
was not powder-burned Nor disco!ored
In any way, as result of the shot. is
another point which the state believes
shows that Thrawley was not in close
range. DR.. J. r. Weist and DR.. ]. NJ.
Thurston. experts examined by the
state, testified that a revolver fired at
a mans head at closer range than two
feet would be certain to burn both hair
and skin, and would also lacerate the
scalp to a considerable degree. None of
these result followed. though Thrawley.
on the day Of the killing. told Sheriff
James, of Henry county. that he and
Shoemaker were clinched when the shot
was fired.

NEWS OF ARMY MOVEMENTS.
New Volunteers Will Do Used to Fill In
Deficient Regiments.

DcHcient Regiments.
Washington, May 30.-Adjutant Cor
hin said that it had been definitely de-
cided to use about $4,000 Of the volun-
teers to be raised under the new call
in filling out deficient regiments already
organized under the old call. 1t would
take about that number, he thought, to
| ill each company up to the maximum
limit of los men. The remaining % 900
would be organized into regiments of
three battalions each and distributed
among the states and territories in ex-
| actly the same proportion as under the
first call The cavalry, however would
| be accepted and only a very limited
number of artillery.
One of the most brilliant military
pageants enacted since the grand mus
| tering out parade of the federal troops
down the streets of Washington at the
close of the civil war occurred at Camp
Alger Saturday afternoon. when Pres
| ident Mckinley reviewed the troops now
quartered there. 1t was the first time
in over thirty years that an army of
volunteers rendezvoused in time of war
had passed in review before the COM
mander-in-chief of the army and navy.
ana the demonstration attracted MANY
thousands from Washington and the
| surrounding country to the camp
grounds near Falls Church. There were
1000 troops in line. The president was
| accompanied by his wife, Vice President
Hobart and wife. and numerous others.
| including some members of congress.
When taps were sounded at Camp Al
ger Sunday night $4,000 men gladly
| sought their tent covered hunks. To
the brigades which constitute the Sec
ond division Of the second army corps
the following assignments were made:
First brigade-One Hundred and Fifty
Ninth Indiana, Third New York and
Twenty-Second Kansas, under command
of Col. Barnett, of the One Hundred and
Fifty-Ninth Indiana. Second brigade
