little thought Of in financial matters.
Had they been there would have been
no bonds issued. The government is
simply Offering bounty to the holders
of these Pacific railroad bonds.
1t may be said the bounty costs the
government nothing as the money is in
the treasury dormant and idle. Re.
member, however, at this very time the
government is borrowing money on
bonds to run at per cent. This shows
the beauty Of Secretary Cages fnan-
cieriDg, all for the bondholder.

The Presidents private secretary,
John Addison Porter, is Connecticut
man, and he took the field to be tine
Republican nominee for governor. The
machine, however, was too much for
John Addison, and he failed. The
machine in the old state is too well
fortified for a Presidents secretary to
demolish this year. The administration
itself ia not so potential.

HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION
PROVIDED FOR BY NEWLAND'S
LITTLE BILL
Government Property to Be Taken
Hawaii's Debt Assumed by the
Twenty-four Hours

WASHINGTON, May 4.-Representative
Newlands Of Nevada has introduced a
Joint resolution for the annexation Of Ha-
wall. 1t provides for the confirmation of
the cession by the Hawaiian republic Of all
rights of sovereignty over the islands,
their dependencies and of cession and
transfer to the United States of all public
property and of it's rights and appurte-
nances, assuming the Hawaiian public debt
to not exceed $4,OO0.000; prohibits further
immigration Of Chinese and appoints five
commissioners, at least two of whom shall
be residents Of Hawaii, to recommend nee
essary legislation.
The resolution declares the islands and
their dependencies thereby annexed as a
part of the territory of the United States
and subject to the sovereign dominion
thereof"
No special laws are to be enacted by con-
gress for the enactment and disposition Of
public lands, and all revenues or pro-
ceeds therefrom, except lands used or oc-
cuped for CIVIL military or naval purposes
of the United States or local government
use, are to be used solely for the benefit Of
! Hawaiian inhabitants for educational or
other purposes. Pending congressional
provision for the government of the ISL
| ands, the present government officers of
Hawaii are to continue under the direction
of the president of the United States, sub
ject to removal by him.
Existing Hawaiian treaties with other
countries are to expire Immediately, be-
ing replaced by those between the United
States and foreign nations Municipal
legislation on the islands, unless enacted
for the fulfillment of the treaties extin-
guished or contrary to our constitution re-
main in force until otherwise determined.
Pending legislation extending our customs
laws, the existing customs relations of
the islands remain unchanged. The as
sumption of public debt lawfully existing
at the date of the change of the passage of
the resolution includes amounts due to de-
positors in the Hawaiian postal savings
bank, the Hawaiian government, however,
continuing to pay the interest on the debt
while the existing government and it's
commercial relations are continued. The
Chinese exclusion paragraph prohibited
the admission of Chinese into the United
States from Hawaii. To carry out the res.
olution $1OO, 900 is appropriated.

TRADE WITH MANILA
As Shown by Report Of United States
Consul

Consul
WASHINGTON, May 4.-The UNDER
standing at the state department is that
Consul Oscar F. Williams, our representa-
tive at Manila until the recent war began,
Is now aboard the flagship Olympia, in
Manila harbor, having accompanied Dew
ey from Hong Kong, SO that advices
may come from him to the state depart
ment mail report from Consul Will
liams reahed the state department re-
Gently under date of Manila, February rs
last. 1t gives a full description Of the
Philippine situation, and will be incorpo-
rated in the next volume issued by the bu-
reau of statistics OF the state department
In this report Mr.. Williams states that "
consuls, representing the leading countries
Of the world, are established at Manila.
He adds the surprising statement: 1.-THE
volume of the export trade coming under
my official supervision equals that of my
twenty-one consulate colleagues COM
bined."
He then shows in detail how the trade of
the Philippines with the United States ex-
ceeds that of all other countries COM
bined, and is growing at a rapid rate. AS
indicating the extent of this trade, he says:
"Today 1 have authenticated invoices for
export to the United States amounting to
s13S ,O66" He says the exports to this
country average $1,00O,000 month. The
report states that 5000 bales of hemp were
exported during the last three month; Of
these, 1875, 1872 went to the United States and
900 to England and other countries. Mr..
Williams shows from this that the United
States had GA per cent of the trade from
the Philippines as against 36 per cent for
England and other countries. He said
that last year the increase of shipments to
the United States was $4,000 bales, and the
decrease to England 1000 bales. He adds:
1.-THE increase of shipments from the Phil
ippines to the United States were "a per
cent greater than to all other countries
combined"
He also gives details of the large ship
ments of sugar, cigars, tobacco, hides,
shells, indigo and coffee. In the item OF
sugar, which is second inlfmportance, the
shipments to the United States were SIS
per cent of the total.

the Notifications bill. The remainder of
the session was consumed in the consider
alton of the Alaskan land bill and a reso-
luton for the repeal of an act prohibiting
the passage of importations in bond
through the territory of the United States
into the free zone"
The latter was passed. but the Alaskan
measure went over.
Newlands of Nevada introduced res
olution for the annexation of Hawaii.
To Repeal the Resolutions
Mr.. Grosvenor Rep.) Of Ohio called
I'D as a privileged report from the Com
mittee on Ways and Means a resolution
to repeal joint resolution prohibiting the
passage of goods in bond through this
country into the free zone of Mexico, af-
fecting importation along the northern
border of Mexico. The effect of the reso-
luton. Mr.. Grosvenor said, would tend to
reduce smuggling.
Mr.. Lanham of Texas raised a point of
order against the bill, claiming that 1t
did not raise revenues. The Speaker over
ruled the point of order and in doing so
construed "raising revenue" as re-
CARDS duties as being equivalent to "af-
fecting revenue" The House went into
committee of the whole to consider the
resolution.
The repeating resolution passed after a
discussion of Mr. Grosvenor, Slayden
Cooper for, and Mr. Stephens against It.
Mr.. Heminway presented the conference
report upon the Fortifications Appropria-
ton bill.
The conference report was adopted.
The conference report upon the act ex-
tending the homestead laws and providing
for the right of way for railroads in Alaska
was called up by Lacey of Iowa.
The conference eliminated the features
from the bill providing for the appoint
ment of a commission to consider the
North Atlantic fishing and other trade re-
lations controversies with Canada, upon
which the house on Monday rejected the
report upon point of order.
| Lacey explained the bill as reported from
conference. He then moved the previous
question, but Pitney, who had opposed the
passage Of the bill, raised the point of no
quorum.
| Lacey Immediately moved to adjourn,
and adjournment was taken at 4:20 o'clock.

INJUNCTION IS DENIED
so THE "sUN" CAN'T SELL tn
NEWS SERVICE
The Associated Press Il Not TRUST
and the Sun Has Not Sought
the Right Remedy -.

NEW YORK, May 4.-Judge Lacombes
in the United States circuit court, has de-
MED the motion Of the New York Sun for
a temporary injunction pendente lite, re.
straining the Associated Press from pro-
hibiting it's newspapers from buying or
using the Sun service.
Judge Lacombe says: 1.-THE case at bar
is evidently not one arising under the anti
trust act of 1890. Complainant has brought
a suit in equity for an injunction, but BY
the terms of the antitrust act that form
of relief is confined to the United StateA
Congress, when 1t passed the act Of
1890 Gas such act Is construed by the SUI
preme COURT, created a wholly new Of
tense, unknown to the law as 1t was then
administered in the courts, and which had
been committed, probably daily, ever since
this country began to have any trade at
all. 1t was quite to be expected that con-
gress would provide special remedies for
the violations Of the terms of this STATUTE
and to such remedies all persons claiming
to be aggrieved by acts which are offensea
only because this statute makes them 500
should be restricted.
"For a similar reason complainant cans
not maintain this suit in equity under the
| New York statute concerning agreements
or combinations in restraint of trade.
The statute empowers the attorney gens
eral to enforce it by suit in equity.
There are averments In the complaint
that the acts of the defendant and its Off
GERS, by which complainant is aggrieveds
are the result of a malicious combination
to injure complainant without justice or
excuse, inspired by ill-will and deliber-
ate intention to harm the complainant
without reference to any lawful exercise
of defendants rights. But there is ocn-
| fict of evidence as to the facts asserted
defendants vigorously denying in theiR
affidavits the averments OF the complains
ant and 1t is not the practice in this car
cult to grant preliminary injunctions when
there is such conflict as to essential facts.
Such relief must be sought at final hear.
ing, when the testimony of conflicting at.
fdavits may be submitted to the test Of
cross-examination."
