tn and Twenty first Streets-No
Clue.
Another theft has taken place in the

the thief. Last evening or last night
at some unearthly hour some man with
privateering tendencies steered around
to the starboard side Of the stable IL
which E. E. Beetle was in the habit of
keeping his horse and carriage, on
north + street, between twentieth and
srreers, ana without flr1ng
a shot captured the horse and buggy
of Mr.. Beetle-craft, propeller

the pirate took is not known, but the
probability is that he sailed away
toward Spain. The police were Lott
fed. and efforts will be made to inter
cept the piratical cruiser at her first
landing for water or fuel. Should the
craft be overhauled it will be contis-
Gated as contraband, and its entire
crew held as prisoners. This is the

crease Our wealth or GLORY.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 4, 1898.
Senator White concluded his three
days speech In opposition to the an
ncXation OF Hawaii in tho executive
session of the Senate to-duy.
In the beginning or to-day's speech
he made some additional points against
The availability OF Hawaii for defen-
siVc purposes, saying that 1t is 500
miles from the outside islands OF the
group to other Islands. This fact, he
said. demonstrated that numerous
points must be guarded from hostile
assault and that q powerful navy
would be required 20 accomplish this;
mat This immense expenditure will be
without benefit to our defcnses on the
continent He declared that as soon
as Hawaii was acquired II would be
contcndcd that our domains should be
extended to other islands, and we
would finally embark upon the foreign
acquisition business, involving an out
iay OF hundreds Of millions OF dollars
ne then took up the question Of
labor contending that the Chinese and
japanese japanese are receiving SIS per month
tension that the Anglo-Saxon race
could labor In Hawaiian sugar fields
anu demanded to know why, if they
could, there was no such white labor
on the island now.
fle read from recent Consular re-
port 10 show that the coffee business
| was at best problematical, and that
| even In this work laborers only re-
! ceive Sl5 per month without board. He
| denounced the master and servant
regulations now in force in the islands
as species of slavery; said that coffee
must be produced In competition with
! the lowest grade Of Peon toiers. and
that the time would never come when
larm hand on coffee plantation
would receive the white mans wages.
lie also asserted that the Japanese
would nave the same right to come
INTO the United States enjoyed by other
Foreigners, and that while contract
laborers OF all kinds are excluded, still
ihere is no obstacle to the entry Of
the ordinary Japanese laborer who
complies with our general lmmiGra-
ton laws, and that If annexation were
brought about Oriental labor would
stlli dominate the situation in Hawaii.
lie denounced as ABSURD the asser-
lion that trade would be diverted from
me United States il annexation were
| defcated, and said that even with the
present treaty out of the way the Ha-
waiians would do business with us.
that when the Mckinley bill was in
force they still traded with the United
STATES He compared the growing
trade or Japan to that Of Hawaii
showing that our cotton, flour and
manufactures of iron and steel we're
fast occupying the Japanese market.
MI. White then took up the Hawaiian
Government. insisting that it was ir-
regular and fraud. He criticised the
action Of President Dole IN coming to
Washington at such a time He re-
viewed at length the general DoIcies
or theories OF our Government. and
declared that the question was above
all politics. and that 1T was a step
which. If taken could not add to our
glory or increase our wealth or be re-
gardcd as an evidence of our honesty

Der Of topics were discussed at to-day's
Cabinet meeting, but perhaps that of
the most interest was the dispensatiOn
of Federal patronage in the Southern

probable that several important an
pontments will be made in the South
soon though the President has not

The decree Of the German Govern

talked over and figures were produced
to show the great Importance of the
