THE HAWAIIAN COMMISSION.

Folloving the further provision Of the Joint
resolution. | appointed the Honorabes Shelby
NJ cullom Of Illinois. John r Morgan. OF Ala
hama. Robert K Hit. of Illinois; Sanford r
Dole. Of Hawaii and Walter F. Frear Of Ha-
wait as Commissioners to confer and recon-
mend 10 Congress such legislation concerning
the Hawaiian Islands they should deem
necessary or proper. The Commissioners having
fulfilled the mission confided TO them. their re-
port vlll be laid before you at an early day. II
IL believed that their recommendations Will have
the earnest consideration due 10 the magnitude
Of the responsibility resting upon you to give
such shape to the relationship Of those mid-Pa
cdc lands 10 our home union as will benefit
both in the highest degree. realizing the aspira
tons Of the community that has cast its lot
with us and elected TO share our political herit-
age while at the same time Justfying the fore
sight OF those who for three-quarters of a cent
urv have looked 70 the assimilation of Hawaii
as a natural and inevitable contamination, in
harmony with our needs and in fufment Of our
cherished traditions
The questions heretofore pending between Ha-
wall and Japan growing out Of the alleged mis-
treatment Of japanese treaty immigrants were
I am pleased 10 say. adjusted before the act OF
transfer by the payment OF reasonable indem-
nifty TO the Government OF Japan.
Under the provisions Of the joint resolution the
ands with the United States and with other
countries remain unchanged until legislation
shall otherwise provide The Consuls Of Hawaii
here and In foreign countries continue to fulfil
their commercial agencies. while the United
States Consulate at Honolulu is maintained for
all appropriate services pertaining TO trade and
the revenue. II would be desirable that all for
eign Consuls in the Hawaiian Islands should re-
ceive new exequaturs from this Government.
The attention Of Congress is called 10 the fact
that our consular officers having ceased to exist
in Hawaii and being about to cease in other
countries coming under the sovereignty OF the
United Sttaes the provisions for the relief and
transportation Of destitute American seamen In
these countries under consular regulations
Will In consequence terminate. II u proDeSs

REINDEER'S ROOD, DRINK.
Information for a s. P. C. A. Man in
Jersey City Who Was New in
the Business.

New York, March THE New Jer-
| Sey branch of the Society for the Pre-
! vention of Cruelty to Animals sent sew
eral Of its agents down to the Pennsyl-
vania railroad stockyards last week tc
| be on hand while the 537 reindeer
| brought here for the I<londike relief
| expedition were being landed. There
was very little for the agents to do, as
! the reindeer were well treated by the
| herders and drivers.
1t occurred to one of the agents, a
| stalWart young man whose brand-new
uniform indicated that he was new in
| the business, that he would make in
! quiries about the arrangements for
feeding and watering the reindeer. Ac-
cordingly he approached a Blackboard
ed man who had come over with the
Laplanders and deer and said:
when do you propose to give these
| animals water?"
I'm afraid We'll have to water them
tomorrow" responded the Blackboard
ed man.
bristling up. DO understand you to
mean they'll get no water today?"
Exactly; they can get along all right
until tomorrow.
And may 1 ask when they last had
water?" said the agent, preparing for
action.
well, I don't know" said the man.
I've only been in charge since we left
Bosekop. I saw them rounded up two
days before that, and I'm sure they
haven't had water since''
mat 70 Gays, isn't II 2
Exactly; today makes twenty-seven
days.
The agent wheeled around without
another word and went over to where
two of his companions were standing
The black bearded man went back to
his work, apparently bit puzzled. At
ter a brief conference the three agents
marched over to where a representative
of the government was standing
Clearing his throat one of them began:
I'VE are informed that these animals
haven't been watered for tWenty-seVen
days. Is that true?"
Guess it is said the man. ''Why
do you aSk?"
Because we want to find OFT who is
responsible and arrest him"
Arrest him. What for?"
Cruelty to animals, sir; cruelty to
animals, that's what for
The representative of the government
began to laugh; then he doubled up
with merriment.
My dear fellows he said, finally,
'the reindeer that you see here are fed
on Arctic moss. The moss is all frozen,
and it is food and drink for them. AS
long as the moss is frozen the reindeer
can go without water, even for years.
The moss is beginning to melt now, but
if you'll go over and examine one of
those bags over there you'll discover
that it's still soaking wet. Tomorrow
it'll be dry and We'll have to water the
animals. When we get out in the re-
giOn of the Rockies it'll freeze again,
and we won't have to water the rein
deer any more. It's too bad that you
got agitated unnecessarily"
The agents looked very foolish, said
they were sorry, and withdrew to an
other part of the wharf, where the two
older ones said things to the new man,
who had brought them the news.

STATE OF UNREST.
Revolt and Riot are Imminent in Ha-
Vana-

Havana, via Key West, March 7.-Of
the very keenest interest to Havana is
the question of disbanding and disarm-
ing the volunteers. These sol
dIers, whom no one trusts, are
in a state of great unrest. The colo
nels of three battalions have tried to
see Gen BlancO on the subject, but
he made excuses which they refused to
accept or believe. Finally General
Parade sent a letter saying that no
government would dare disarm the vol
unteers which was REINFORCED by a ca
BILE message to the same effect from
Senior MOret, minister of the colonies at
Madrid.
The volunteers, however, noting the
strength of the radical wing of the au-
Economists and knowing that its mem
bers are hostile to the volunteers, are
doubtful of all professions. The Off
GERS of the volunteers believe that the
Sagasta cabinet is in favor of disband-
ing their corps, no matter what is said
to the contrary. The colonial govern
ment is anxious not only about the pos
sible action of the volunteers, but as to
what side the unpaid, badly fed Span
5sh troops will take. As result there
is general disquietude not visible to an
observer, perhaps, but very real for all
that.
The danger apprehended is a demon
stratiOn against autonomy and General
BlancO by the volunteers, which it
would be impossible to control when ex-
cited and REINFORCED by the mob from
damage to life and property and to the
prospects of peace with the United
States.
1t is claimed also that the volunteers
and the regular forces are most to be
feared by nOn-cOm batantS in an hour
of defeat, as has been shown prior to
and during the present Instruction.
The situation has been acute for some
time. Gen. BlancO and Gen. Parade
continue their denialS that the govern
ment has any intention of disarming the
volunteers and the radical wing of the
feated, since diSarming is the principal
plank of their platform
The autonomist government has ask
ed the opinion of commercial houses
here with reference to the postpone
ment of collections on mortgages until
the war Is over and a chance has been
given to produce something on the
property. The majority of replies are in
favor of such an arrangement Foreign
creditors. especially the English, pro-
test that they should not come under
the same head with the resident credit
ors, but that their debt should be col
lected. Senior Gown favOrs the post
ponement of collections. Millions of dol
aars are involved and there is great IN
terest in the decision of the question
It is reported that Gen. LapOrt will

All Havana Turns Out to Welcome
Spanish Warship With Soldiers
Aboard.

New York, March by the hiss and
roar of rockets and military music Ha-
vana was awakened Sunday and the
harbOr was alive with craft, summoned
by signals flying at Moro Castle, an
nOuncing the arrival of another Span
ish ship, says the Herald's correspond
ent in Havana.
It turned out to be not the expected
cruiser Cristobal Colon, but the Alfonso
XIII, of the Spanish line, and on her
decks thrOnged fifteen hundred soldiers
from Spain. AS she moved to her an
chorage tugs shot out from the piers
with bands on board and rocket bat
teries, afiOat and ashore, rOared the vel
come to the new regiments which Spain
pours into the western world to the
wonder of all nations.
On the tug which circled the Alfonso
XIII were bands playing patriotic airs
and the soldiers replied with a mighty
cheer as the ship crept by the trim
cruisers, the Vizcaya and the OQuendO,
and enters the smooth waters. From Mo-
TO, Cabanas, and awakening city float
ed music bugles and the far-Off cheers
with which Havana greeted her friends
in need. Rockets and batteries for an
hour were never silent and bugles sang
compliments to the steeple bells ashore.
