In Executive Session
In the executive session of the senate to-
day there was some discussion Of the
character of men who should be chosen to
command the immune regiments. Senator
Money was the principal speaker and he
expressed doubt as to whether it would be
possible to raise regiments Of men who had
had yellow fever, in case officers for such
organizations were taken from the north
ern states and were men who had not been
subjected to this disease.
There were two roll calls in the execu-
tive session ,one of them being upon the
confirmation of N. s. Walpole of Colorado
to be agent for the Pueblo and Giraculli
Indians In New Mexico and the other on
the confirmation Of James G. Power of
Pennsylvania to be -receiver of public
moneys at, PerrX,rO. T..

on the ground of non-resldence but both
were confirmed by considerable majorities.

TUCSON, Ariz., May A.-Word has been
received from Washington that the United
States supreme court yesterday declared
the Algodones land grant on the Colorado
river, Yuma county, invalid. Hundreds
were waiting this decision to file upon the
land. Governor McCord appeared sud-
denly at the Tucson land office and in adj
vance of all others filed in behalf Of the
University Of Arizona upon over 5000 acres.
The land filed upon is the choicest in the
valley. Would-be settlers were surprised
and routed. The governor acetd upon gen.
era! authority which has not heretofore
been invoked. Prison labor purchased
water rights for this land. 1t is now per-
petual endowment to the university of at
least 100000 annually. 1t is difficult to as
certain who is most surprised at the gov
errors strategic movement, the canal COM
pany, who hoped for rich profits of this
unequaied land, or the settlers who were
trying to get it for nothing. Friends Of ed
ucation are rejoicing.

The National Guard

SAN FRANCISCO. May A.-The Call
says:
The subject of reorganizing the National
Guard of California brings forward some
interesting points. 1t seems to be con-
coded by military men who are familiar
with the laws of the United States and the
statutes Of California that the First.
Seventh and Sixth Regiments. which were
recently mustered into service of the
United States are still organizations Of the
National Guard. They have not been dis
banded or mustered out of service. but
under the law are performing duty in
fields beyond the limits Of the State.
It is reasoned, therefore, that other or
ganizations cannot be enlisted to take the
places in the guard of the regiments which
have gone into the service Of the United
States.

HAWAII IS NOT NEUTRAL

No Developments in the Matter OF the
oEering Of the Islands to the
UNITED States

SAN FRANCIGCO, May N.-The steamer
zes,srd,a arrived this evening with the fol-
lowing Honolulu advices, to May u;
HONOLULU, May H.-Members OF the
cabinet refusa po.nt blank elmer to deny
or affirm tho rumor that this government
had offered the islands to the American ad-
ministration a. a base OF operations IN the
war with Spain. The details Of bill with
the same object in view have been received
and sent to the senate in secret session. II
was drafted by friends Of annexation IN
the United States and sent to President
Dole by the Hawaiian representatives, In
Washington.
Members Of the Hawaiian senate object
to the bill, saying that all the republic can
do or offer to do is contained in the annexa-
ton treaty. To pass the proposed bill, or
even to consider it, would SAVIOR OF over
anxiety, which would be very apt to defeat
its own purpose. President Dole has no
power to cede the islands without ratifica-
ton by the Hawaiian legislature.
This country has not declared neutrality
as yet, and will probably not do 80. In the
meantime, the American troops will be al
lowed directly and openly by the govern
ment all the freedom Of this port. They
will be sold all the food supplies and coal
they can carry of, and will be rendered all
the assistance lying within the power Of the
people
The Bennington Is still at anchor In the
harbor. She ID ready to go to sea at mo-
ment's notice.
A second cable bill has been introduced
In the senate. It Is in the form Of an
amendment Of the existing law, and will
give the government the right to grant an
exclusive franchise to lay cable from Hon
olulu to Japan, to any other company, pro-
viding the Pacific Cable company fails to
secure the franchise and subsidy from the
United States.
Arrangements will be made for a fitting
reception for the troops passing through
here on their way to Manila.
Twenty-Five Hawaiians will leave on the
next steamer. bound for Utah. They are
to be sent by the Mormon settlement on
this island. The natives of Honolulu are
complaining bitterly against the exporta-
ton Of their people.
Hawaiian Annexation
WASHINGTON, May 24.-Assurance that
a special rule for the consideration Of the
Hawaiian annexation resolutions would be
reported to the house late this week was
given today. Representative Tawney and
other Republican members were inclined
to secure If possible a caucus on Thursday
night to consider the question of annexa-
ton with a view to exerting pressure for
the rule, and a call was circulated in the
house today. but the movement was aban-
doned upon the general understanding that
the committee on rules would respond soon
to the manifest desire of the majority Of
the members to take UP the Hawaiian reso-
lutions. Mr.. Hit, chairman of the COM
mittee on foreign affairs and in charge of
the resolutions. said this evening that he
was confident action would be had early
next week and probably three days would
be given for debate.

Reports received at the War Department
from the American military commissioners
in Havana indicate that the season had not
yet sufficiently advanced in Cuba TO make
it even reasonably safe to take any large
number of American troops to the island
just now. General Wade, president of the
American commission, thinks it will prob
ably be until December l before additional
troops will be required in Cuba. 1t is felt
that there is no actual loss of time upon
this score, for the delay not only affords
opportunity to better arrange and sift out
ne troops in the United States now beng
prepared for garrison duty, but meantime
