Washington, July 5-The debate upon the Hawaiian resolution continued in the senate today. Three speeches were made MT Hoar, in advocating annexation, made a notable appeal against any policy of ter- ritorial expansion as a sequence to the war. MT.

 MT. Hoar said we did not want large armies or a great navy or an enormous debt or increased taxes, and the president who had earned the love of the country for his firmness in his refusal to rush pre- maturely into war with the world, MT.
