HAWAII WILL
BE ANNEXED
In all Probability Before Adjournment oil
Congress Next Week.
THE EFFORTS OF JOE BAILEY
To Have the Measure Made a Party
Question Failed.
THE TEXANS MANY MISTAKES
Have Given His Old Enemies the Hope That
He WIN Fail of Nomination For the
Speakership at Next Session
Of Congress.


Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald
Washington. June 24.-Congress will adj
journ, in all probability, next week. The
probability, moreover, is that II will have
annexed the Hawaiian islands before it
adjourns. The minority sees the hopeless
ness of it's fight 1t is impossible to draw
party lines on the question as long as the
old democratic veteran, Senator Morgan, is
the practical leader of the annexationists
The efforts of Representative Bailey to
have the matter made a party question
and thereby having himself and his posi-
ton Endorsed, failed on account of oppo-
sition in the house. Bailey has been I'M
fortunate of late in his leadership and his
soul has been tried by the diversity of
opinion within the house and the strength
the oppositin to him has assumed.
Joe BaiIey's Mistakes
His mistakes, or, rather his misfortunes,
have given his old enemies, those who chung
to Richardson, McMillin, MoRae and Catch
ings, the hope that he will fail of nominal
ton for the speakership in the next con-
gress. The fact that McMillin leaves con-
gress this session to become the governor
of Tennessee will unite the opposition to
Bailey on Mr.. Richardson, who has, by the
way, played waiting game to perfec-
ton. He has done nothing to offend Bailey

even now when there are several cliques
growing up in the house In opposition to
Bailey, Mr.. Richardson is doing nothing to
encourage them or to put himself forward
as rival or opponent to Bailey for the
next race Bailey has been unfortunate in
getting the democratic leaders down on
him. He has not asked their advice nor
taken II. when II was proffered. as. for in
stance. when Jones of Arkansas urged him
to force the republicans TO legisate. when
the latter were adJournns over three Gays
at time. Bailey's chlef strength is with
the younger element OF the mouse, ana THIS
Is the most uncertain element, inasmuch as
it is the element that is most liable to be
defeated in the political changes of con-
gress. 80
