HEAVY BOND LIQUIDATION.
Standa I'd Oil MilIionaires Sell So.
100000 Worth of Governments.

New York. March 1.-THE Evening
World tonight says:
For some time past the prominent
bond houses have been cognizant of the
liquidation of a heavy line of Govern
ment bonds. The transaction is now COM
pleted and the deal has been traced to
the Standard OIL group of millionaires,
who have according to the best calcula-
tons. disposed of about 1900. 600 worth
of Governments. The sellers who follow
the Standard Oil rule of refusing TO either
verify or deny any report concerning
themselves have received some of the
best prices during the past two weeks.
and the average selling figure is far above
the present market price. Some of the
bonds disposed of abroad accounts in part
for the recent imports of gold.
The reason for the sale was the cOnvic-
ton that another issue of Government
bonds will be necessary in the near flu
ture, and this without regard to any
pending war measures.

CAPITOL GOSSIP.

The voting of So, 900 as an emergency
fund to be drawn upon by the President
in case of need may lead to a change in
practice. Ex-Congressman Warner, of
Missouri, says there ought to be an emer-
gency fund in the hands of the President
at all times, to be used only when such
an occasion as the present arises. Similar
expressions are heard. The feeling is gen
eral that the voting of this money has had
an effect in direction of the preservation
of the peace in the relations between the
United States and Spain. Precisely such
an emergency might have arisen with
Congress not in session. In that event
the hands of the President would have
been tied until an extra session of Con-
gress could have been called In the
meantime the course of a nation so full
of treachery as Spain might have put the
country at a great disadvantage. The
prompt passage of this bill may be the
one thing to insure peace. The absence
of Congress or the failure to pass such
bin might have been the determining fac
tor in a declaration of war against the
United States. Such thoughts are prompt
ing a feeling in favor of permanent
emergency defense fund. At the outbreak
of the civil war the Government CROPPED
along in an indefinite way, creating de-
ficiency. until July, 1861, when Congress
voted $179 600, 600 for the prosecution OF the
war. This amount covered the year from
July /, 1861, to July /, 1862 and also the
three months preceding.

The Necessity for Annexation.

Enemies of Hawaiian annexation
have laid great stress upon the alleged
opposition of what they delight to de-
scribe as the Intelligent native class.
They have particularly urged serious
consideration for petition, pretended
to have been widely signed by such
people; and purporting to be protest
against American acquisition of the
country.
The Times has the most reliable in
formation that the petition in ques-
ton is fraud; that it's signatures,
where genuine, We're secured before the
text of the document was formulated,
and that a large number of them are
the names of native women and chill
dren, and not of adult males, as it is
made to appear. Moreover, there is
evidence that large number of the
signatures are forgeries in the hand
writing Of one intelligent native
1t is also interesting to learn that an
agent, a Norman missionary in the ISL
ands. commissioned to find that the
| decent native population is opposed to
annexation. has returned to this coun-
try and declared that fully half of the
| aborfgines are DESTROYS of it, while
most of the others would rather see
| America take possession, if the ex-
| queen is not to be restored.
Thus one after another of the re-
ports and arguments relied upon by the
Sugar Trust and British interests to
| thwart the American people in their
purpose to secure the outpost in the
Pacific necessary to our future COM
merce, to the protection Of our Western
coast, and to our military control of
the Nicaragua Canal, is found to be
based upon bad faith and a treacher-
Gus determination to subordinate the
welfare of a great nation to corporate
or foreign political profits and pur-
poses.
All of our respectable authorities,
commercial, military, and naval, agree
that the annexation of Hawaii is vital
to the future growth and safety Of the
country They insisted upon this long
before the Ominous war cloud in the far
East warned us to make good our
position in the Pacific Ocean before it
/ i-idN De TOO ldAS. L IueI present tOllui-
tons OF the worlds affairs, our need
for the group is manifestly greater
than ever, and the complications be-
tween our principal commercial COM
petitors would render it easier for US
TO complete the transaction without ex-
ternal friction now rather than at any
time in the recent past, or probably in
the future.
There ought to be enough patriotism
in Congress to cover this serious ques-
ton in the same American, non-parti-
san spirit that has marked the action
OF the Senate and House in the matter
Of national defense. The annexation OF
Hawaii is another measure of national
defense IT should not be neglected
Certainly it should not be INSTRUCTED in
the interests Of Great Britain and
sugar, any more than patriotism ought
TO stand out against the independence
Of Cuba for the benefit Of Spain and
the Spanish-Cuban oond conspiracy.
