Seeking for u NCIou."

The ''clou," or great overshad0wing
feature of the forthcoming Paris expo
stion, is yet lacking, and the manage
ment has so far vainly sought for it
amid the myriad of practicable schemes
preached by inventors and theorists
and cranks, and are still in search of
new ideas and encouraging their pres
entation. An immense captive balloon,
an enormous telescope and a 200-ton
monumental clock are among the sug-
gestions; as are also great panoramas
of the world, giant electric gyroscope,
typical streets of each country, palace
and thousand other schemes more or
less visionary; but meanwhile the man.
agement is yet bewailing the great
unbound "clou" which is TO take in the
coming exhibition the place of the
Eitfel tower in the last.-Detroit Free

Remains in Force-RiShts

The proposed annexation OF the Ha-
waiian Islands has induced a writer to
examine the archives of the state depart
ment in regard to the possessions " hich
We already hold in the Pacific ocean.
Distributed over the mid-Pacfic, in
the neighborhood of the equator, are
quite lot Of small islands that belong
to the United States. Most Of them are
from 1860 to 1000 miles to the south
and southwest of Ilaw ali. Some of them
are near the Gilbert archipelago. and
there is considerable cluster just
about the lesser distance mentioned
and directly south Of the Hawaiian
group, including America, Christmas,
falmyros and other islands of large
size.
Christmas island is about IS miles
long. 1t got its name originally from
the fact that the famous Capt. Cook
stopped there on Christmas day for the
purpose of observing an eclipse. 1t is
an atoll, or ring, OF coral formation, in
closing n lagoon of water that has be-
come so salty through evaporation rs to
be a vcritable hri:e. Fishes thrown
over the reef by storms are picked in it,
and remain perfectly preserved and
good to eat for months.
These isles Of the Pacific belonging to
Uncle Sam number GO in all Thew
have all been annexed to the United
States under an act of congress which
became law August 1S. 1886. This law,
which remains in force to-day, declares

ton of the president, be considered as

The GIscoyerer is required TO give due
notice to the department Of state. with

liver the guano only to citizens of the

Marquis Ito Regrets His Government
Cannot Sell to Us.
A special to the New York Herald from
Toxic yesterday says:
l visited Marquis Ito today and asked
him whether the Japanese government
would sell the cruisers 'kasagi and Chi:ose
to the United States. The premier hesitat-
ed moment and replied
Il will make Inquiry of my naval col
league, but l think 1 may say that Japan
prefers 10 get poss esson of all the ships
building for her as soon as possioie. Off,
GERS have already been ordered to bring the
kasagi and Chitcse to Japan, and the build
ers have been requested to hasten their
completion.
After a pause the marquis continued
slowly and impressively:
The news of the last few days indicates
a critical stat3 of affairs elsewhere than on
the western continent, and We consider il
cnly prudent to continue our preparations
for the national defense which we had the
forethought to begin a long zine ago.
hope the people of the United States will
not take offense at Japan's unwillingness
to part with these cruisers. 1 have always
appreciated their kindly feeling for Japan.
The United States is the nation above all
others where public sentiment absolutely
controls the national policy, and for thai
reason l wish to have the people there un-
derstand that Japan retains the kasagi
and Chitose, not from a lack of Willingness
to oblige the United States, but because
she needs them herself"
