ANNEXATION OF HAWAII
HOUSE FoREIGN AFFAIRS COMMIT
 TEE CONSIDERS THE QUESTION.
Strong Majority Favors Annexing tho Islands-Chairman Hit Makes Torci- ble Presentation of the Reasons for Fa- vorable Action at This Time and Points Out That Legislation is Imperative-Iti Is Understood the Committee Will Make a Favorable Report
Favorable Report.

Washington, May 5.-The Hawaiian question came up before the house com mittee on foreign affairs to-day There was strong majority favoring annex ation. The resolution introduced by Representative Newlands of Nevada was considered in detail Chairman Hit made forcible presentation to the committee of the reasons for favorable action at this time, and pointed out that legislation was imperative in view of the necessities existing for the use of that island in our war operations.
 Representative w. A. Smith, mem Der of the sub committee, presented number of substantial reasons for prompt action, characterizing the past policy of the government regarding isl- and ownership in the West Indies and in the Pacific near the isthmus as short sighted and unwise. He urged that 1t was due the American people to take immediate action and advocated a prompt favorable report.
 Representative Clark suggested that there were many difficulties involved in the annexation of the islands and dep- recated what he asserted to be a de- parture from our historical position re- garding territorial ownership outside the continent. Representative New lands, the author of the bill, urged many advantages to be gained by own ership of the islands in the Pacific. Representative Pearson also sustained this position.
 It is understood that if there should mittee in favor of annexation the speaker will not interpose any obiec- tion. It is also stated that the admin istration is pressing early action. There were three members of the committee absent, Messrs. Quigg of New York, Henry of Indiana, republicans, and Williams of Mississippi democrat. The republicans present stood solidly in fla vor of annexation. These were Messrs. Hit of Illinois, Adams of Pennsylva- mia, Cousins of Iowa, w. A. Smith of Michigan, Heatwole of Minnesota, Gill; lett of Massachusetts and Pearson of North Carolina, though there were were some differences of opinion as to when annexation should take effect. Mir. Newlands of Nevada and MT. Berry of Kentucky, democrats, favored an- nexation Of the absentees MT. Will Hams is vigorous opponent of annex ation

SOME NEWS FROM HAVANA
cor. DELGADO, THE INSURGENT
 LEADER, REPORTED KILLED.

British Cruiser Talbot Arrives to Take on
 British Snbjects-The Talbot Held Up by
 Blockading Vessels but Finally Allowed
 to Proceed-Blanco Urging Provincial
 Authorities to Stir Up Patriotism Which
 is Waning Under Influence of Hunger
 and Disease.
 Key West, May 5.-A dispatch which arrived here to-day brought intelligence of an engagement between Spanish troops and insurgents in Havana prov ince, in which Colonel Juan Delgado the insurgent leader, and four men were killed and the Spanish lost twen- ty-one men. No further details are known, and even these are obtained from hearsay in Havana. Even the date of the engagement is not given, al though it is understood to be of recent occurrence.
 News reached here to-day of the ar rival at Havana yesterday of the Brit ish cruiser Talbot to take off British subjects who desire to leave the city. The Talbot was held up" by the block ading vessels, but finally asked permis- sion of the flagship to go in, which Ad- mfral Sampson readily granted. Ad- miral Sir John Richardson, command ing the British West Indian naval sta- ton, was on board the Talbot. The Britishers had not heard of the Ma nila victory and when they learned of it they heartily congratulated Admiral Sampson and the other officers of the fleet.
 Further information from the besieg- ed island is to the effect that General Blanco is urging the provincial author ities in every locality to stir up the pa triotism of the people, which is said to be rapidly waning under the influence of hunger and disease.
 The conditions of the Havana block ade remain unchanged, the line being rigidly kept by the Montgomery and other cruisers under Captain Converse who is still in temporary command. The censorship of dispatches here continue very strict. During her cruise the Dol phin held up eighteen vessels, all of which were released except the Span ish fishing schooner Lola which was sent here the other day. The Dolphin had previously taken the Lola but had released her on the captains promise to go in shore and remain there. Not long afterwhrd the Dolphin again found the Lola cruising and apparently signalling information to some one On shore. The Spaniard was then cap- tured despite the captains protesta- tions that he was not signalling.
 The Spanish soldiers captured on the prize steamer Argonauta last week were sent north this morning on the City of Key West. They will be lodged in Fort McPherson as prisoners of war until the government decides what shall be done with them. The prison CTS are twenty in number. Under the escort of ten members of the Twenty fifth infantry, commanded by Lieuten- ant Moss, the SDaniards were landed on the dock where they were surround ed by crowd of Cubans and Arneri- cans, who, however offered no indigni- ties. There they waited for more than an hour for the arrival of the delayed steamer. The infantry accompanies them to Fort McPherson.
