LAW OR A TREATY HoV, if at all, the Islands Shall
 be Acquired SUBJECT OF CONSIDERATION
By the Senate Committee on
 Foreign Relations
1t Is Indirectly Learned that the An nexation of the Islands is to be Attempted by the Process of Leg tSIation.

Washington, March 5.-The senate committee on foreign relations had a two hours sitting today in the effort to decide upon what course to pursue with reference to the Hawaiian annex ation treaty. When the commi t e adjourned the members refused ab- solutely to give out any informat on to the press saying that all present had pledged themselves to absolute S. crecy.
 It was learned through other sen ators, however, that the committee had under consideration the advisabil- ity of taking up the question of an nexation in the way of legislation rather than by means of ratifying the treaty, at least immediately, but to press it's consideration upon the ser ate at the first opportunity.

TRY NEW WAR SIGNALS.
Made With Different Co,.
 ors in Skyrockets.

New York, March 5.-Experiments were made last night at the Brooklyn navy yard in the use of rockets, para chutes of fire and colored lights as war signals. tJ
 The messages they conveyed were read with ease three miles away. It was the first experiment with a new code of signals between ships of war
 The present system consists of the use of three arc lamps on the mast of a warship and a mile of these lights blend together and render the signals useless. Therefore the new system was devisd.
 Tn bombs were sent up last night near the stone dry dock Each bomb on going to certain height burst into a parachute with string of colored lights hanging in the ear beneath it. These lights conveyed the message. The experiments showd tn practica- bility of the scheme.
 The colors can be affixed just be- fore the bomb is discharged

Neither the Press of America or It's Own Can UrEs the Madrid Government Into War With the United States.

Madrid, March 5.-Discussing the rumors of the possibility of war be- tween the United States and Spain, the Imparcial says that the Spanish gov ernment is not allowing itself to be hurried by alarmist statements in the home and foreign press. It quotes a minister, who said on yesterday that the pessimistic views of the Span sh papers were "but an rcno of the sen sational statements in the Yankee press"
 "But in spite of these statements" continues the Imparcial, "it does rot escape the attention of certain mem bers of he government that the Uni ed States is making some preparations. although these are attributed to CT ders issued some time ago."
 From other members of the gCvern- ment came the statement that at all costs a rude blow must be struck at the rebellion before the beginning O. the rainy season. or otherwise Spain will suffer incalculabie less. Infor- nation is at hand from suficien ly Of Gcial sources that if the rebellion is not suppressed by May, America will intervene, with or without the c2n- sent of Spain

Philadelphia, March 5.-A good 6eal of sympathy is expressed among all classes for Captain John D.

wOMAN's CORPSE FOUND.
Mystery Surrounding the Death of an
 Unknown in Iowa.

Red Oak, Iowa, March 5.-The dead body of a woman was found at the edge of the river, about six miles south of here, this afternoon. A young man walking along the south branch rail- road track found a bundle of woman's clothing near the track, and this led to the discovery of the corpse.
 The body was at the foot of a steep bank about six feet high and was in a reclining position, with one foot on the ice. There were no marks of vio- lence. Tracks made by a man led to the body and showed that the man had walked backward from it.
 About half mile nearer Red Oak, by the side of the railroad track, an other bundle of the woman's clothing was found. The body was brought here and an inquest will be held to- morrow.
 The woman was recognized as hay ing been seen at the depot here yes terday afternoon. It is supposed that her home is in Riverton. note found in her pocket being written on printed paper of a Riverton store She was about 30 years of age, comfortably but plainly dressed.

 Mrs. Willis lives at A Prentis street, and when about to retire was sum- moned to the door to be confronted by two thieves, who said they were po- lice inspectors, and proposed to search the house. She had not time to close the door when one seized her by the throat and drew a knife She broke into the kitchen. where she secured a revolver
 The two then set upon her, one throwing a lighted lamp at her head, when she fired four shots at them, wounding one of the thieves in the face. She then picked up a hatchet and laid open the head of the other man, whereupon the two beat a hasty retreat.

MEET DEATH IN FLAMES.
Five Children Perish Miserably in
 Sight of Their Parents.

Birmingham, Ala, March 5-Jule and Joanna Bonner, who reside on the plantation of w. s. Gul,ey, near Liy- ingston, went to prayer meeting last night. leaving five children ranging in age from to g years at home alone.
 For safe keeping, as they thought, they locked the children in and left blazing log fire to keep them warm.
 Returning home about g o'clock they saw in the distance their house in flames. They ran to it breathlcssly and reached it just a moment before the roof fell in and could hear the piteous cries of the little ones as they beat against the door and cried for help.
 In another moment the zcof fell in and before the flames were subdued the five children were charred corpses.

who was in court when sentence was pronounced, was so profoundly af fected by the presentation of Captain Hart's condition that he has volun- teered to provide the older girl with a suitable employment to enable he' to care for herself while her father is serving his term.
 A movement was inaugurated a few days ago looking to an immediate ap- peal to President Mckinley for the par don of the unfortunate captain, but the opinion prevailed among some Of those interested that while the pres ent national feeling in regard t0 the Maine disaster was continued at fever heat it would be impossible to press the matter upon the attention of the administration, although there is a strong argument in the fact that Cap tain Hart is the only one of four Americans put on trial in this state and Delaware for similar offenses to be convicted. It is also argued in his behalf that he never made a solita y dollar out of filibustering, but that everything he did was done from his heart and out of sympathy for those who subsequently, abandoned him in his peril.

FEAST OF PURIM.
Commemoration of the Deliveranca
 From Haman.

The above named feast, which is also called the Feast of Lots, is to commemorate Israel's' deliverance from the hands of the wicked Haman, who sought to slay, destroy and extirpate all the Jews on one day.
 This happened during the reign Of Achashverosh, king of Persia nnd Me dia, in the days of Mordacai and Esther. The wicked Haman had lots drawn and determined that the mas sacre should occur on the 14th day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar, in the year 3404. Queen Esther informed the king of Haman's plot, told him that she herself was a Jewess and begged that her peep, e be spared The king upon hearing of this treachery, ordered that Haman and his ten sons be hanged on the gallows which Haman had erected, so instead of hanging the Jews on the 14th day of Adar, Haman and his ten sons were hanged. The Book of Esther, called the "Megillah," which con- tafns the history of the events that gave rise to this festival, is read an- nually in the synagogues throughout the world, and will be read this year on Monday evening, March 2, and Tuesday morning, March 8.

Indiana Grand Army Man Reports
 Veterans as Inclined to Peace.

Terre Haute, Ind, March 5.-Indiana Department Commander Dodge of the Grand Army of the Republic in the course of an address to the local posts, said:
 ''If in the near future there should be trouble I should not enlist, and members of the Grand Army of the Republic should not, though I believe it would be hard to restrain some of them. But we ought to take the other fellows by the cuff of the neck and make them go. My son i; a young man in school. The other day his mother was speculating on war and told me that it would break her heart if he should enlist. And I said: If war should come and my son should not go to fight I'd break his back It is the c2untry before all''
 Commander Dodge is making an in spection trip over the state. He says that he does not find a feverish war spirit among the old soldiers

MOTIVE OF THE ASSASSIN.

Ada, Ga., March 5.-The friend sof John R. Freeman, who was assassi- hated here a week ago, assert that his killing was at the hands of parties who wished to prevent his assuming charge of the postoffice, to which he had been appointed by President Me Kinley.

Washington, March 5.-There is promise of new and unwelcome de- velopments in the Maine affair that in the end may lead up to an issue be- tween the government of the United States and the state of Florida if the officials of that state endorse the stand taken by local officials at Key West. The latter have notified Ad- miral Sicard that on the first of next month they propose to enforce a state quarantine law against all crafts ar irving from the outside, as measure of protection against the introduction of yellow fever The notice indicates that the law will be applied to naval vessels and in view of such interfer- ence with the free movements of his ships, Admiral Sicard has reported the facts to the navy department and awaits instructions.
 The department officials cannot tOl- crate with equanimity the stoppage of such craft as the Mangrove and the Fern on their errands of mercy nor the delays that may result in the prosecu- tion of the work of the wreckers en- gagged on the Maine's hull and the work of the court of inquiry. The president himself probably will communicate with the government of Florida with a view to securing an abatement of the law so far as it is proposed to apply it to naval vessels, this .sheing the speediest manner of dealing with the case, although it may be stated that the national government never has recognized the right of any local au- thority to stop it's vessels in case their movements were deemed necessary.
 Warships have voluntarily submit ted to quarantine when returning from any port suspected of infect on, but this is asserted to be merely concession and not a recognition of any lawful right on the part of state authorities. In view of the fact that aid of capable surgeons or each ship make it point to keep their craft in the most hea1thful condition, naval officers feel that they may be safely able to run their ships between Ha- vana and Key West without restric- tion.
 Rumors that Spain is buying new warships led to counter reports that the naval authorities here were con- sidering similar purchases. By no of ficial at the navy department could this be confirmed, as steps of this character necessarily would be guard ed with the greatest secrecy. There is little doubt, however, that the de- partment is informing itself fully as to the opportunities for purchasing should the necessity for more ships arise. Thus far there have been no negotiations for ships and no options asked on particular ships.

AS THE ENGLISH SEE IT.
It Is Believed That the United States
 Will Recognize the Insurgents.

London, March 5.-Now that the time and opportunity for reflection has been allowed by a temporary ces- sation of the patriotic and bellicose statements which since the wreck of the Maine have been the chief feature of special cable dispatches from the United States, Englishmen are be- ginning to ralize the depth of the pro- Cuban feeling in the United States, but they still believe the Maine in- quiry will absolve Spain from com plicity in the disaster. An impression almost amounting to conviction pre- vails that public opinion will compel the government of the United States to acknowledge the Cubans as bel 1igerents and to intervene between Spain and Cuba.
 The very calmness and patience of the people of the United States tends to confirm the conviction here, but Americans have become aware that their government is preparing for the suspicious moment when it arrives Every one in this country acknowl- edges the dignity ard self possession with which the cabinet of President Mckinley has been handling this most difficult affair and this attitude of the United States government has had z great effect in influencing opinion or this side of the Atlantic
