WASHINGTON, May N.-The Hawaiian
annexation question. which has been the
subject Of no little concern about tho senate
for the past few days, assumed deflnite
shape in the senate to-day, when Senators
Lodge and Morgan offered amendments to
the war revenue bill bearing directly upon
the subject. Senator Lodges amendment
is in the words of NewlandS resolution.
and provides in direct terms for the an
nexation Of the Islands. Senator Lodge wai
seen Immediately after he had sent his
amendment to the desk. and he announced
1t to be his purpose to press the amendment
to the end.
"Henceforth," said he. ''the two meas
ures must travel together. Both are equal
ly important, and under the circumstances
1t would be foolhardy for US to forego oul
advantages in Hawaii"
Investigation develops that Senator
Lodges action In presenting the amend
ment was the result Of more or less confer
ence, though Of an informal character
among tho stanchest advocates Of annexar
ton. They express the opinion that the
amendment in the end will be accepted.
