The Ha waiian Bill

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The bill
p. DIVIDING for a form of government for
Hawaii was taken up today by the
House Committee on Territories, and
Representative Hit of Illinois, a mem
Der of the Hawaiian Commission, eX-
planned its general purpose and the
need of early action. Hit said that
the present laws caused much trouble
among the people and the business In
terests, and as the political destiny of
Hawaii was no longer an open question
it was much desired to bring all con-
fiicts of authority to close and estab-
lis; stable system as soon as possible.
He took up the three main objections
l. se1 to the Territorial form of gov
eminent proposed and answered them.
The proposed property qualification
for voters for members of the Senate
Jared somewhat upon our sensibilities
and customs, Hit said, but it was in
line with the local sentiment and usage
IL Hawaii, and the desire had been to
yield to the reasonable desires of the
people of the islands.
The reference of contested election
cases to the courts and the provision
giving to the Governor the appoint
ment of Judges were urged by the peo-
pie of Hawaii. The people of the ISL
ands dreaded any plan which would
COLOMBO Hawaii with Office holders
from Washington, and they therefore
wanted their own Governor to make
the appointments.
The committee arranged to take up
the bill by sections at the next meeting.
Chairman Knott says he hopes to re-
port the bill to the House during the
present month.

HAVANA, Jan. 3.--General Wood
to day issued an important order,
giving freedom to forty men in the
province of Santa Clara. Some OF
them had been detained without
trial and Others were suffering ex-
cessive punishment. All had been
released ten months before by an
order issued by General Bates, but
they were Immediately rearrested on
orders from division headquarters
on the ground that department
com mander did not have the power
to pardon. After looking carefully
into the cases, Governor Wood de-
cided that the judgment of General
Bates regarding their release was
wise and consequently to days or
der setting them at liberty was pro-
mulgated. Reports from other de-
partments are daily expected, and
it is believed that before the eud Of
the month large numbers will be re-
leased, especially in the province Of
Havana. The cases Of those who
have been held for a long time in
detention without trial will be the
first to be Investigated.

The Russian Bear.

VANCOUVER (B. c., Jan. ia
digest OF opinions of the principal
Chinese and Japanese papers received
today by the steamer Empress OF
Japan, thirteen days from Yokohama,
indicates that Russia is Enthusiastically
revealing her intentions in the Far
East. The China Gazette says that,
taking advantage of England's press
ing engagements in South Africa, the
Russian Government, through its Con-
sui at Hankow, has revived its claim
to the Jardine-Metheson land, making
demand for the property in the most
peremptory fashion.
The Russian Consul claims that the
question of the disputed ownership of
the land has been absolutely decided
in favor of his Government, and he
has announced his intention to take
forcible possession of the property
without further negotiations. His ac-
tions are said to have been extremely
high-handed. Relations between the
Birth and Russian residents are
strained to the breaking point.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Calcutta
correspondent of the Daily Mail says:
While the official statement that no
alarm is felt concerning Afghanistan is
quit true, l have good reason to be-
lieve that the Indian Government has
received disquieting information re-
ga-ding Russian movements in the di-
rection of Persia Russia is taking ad-
vantage of the Transvaal trouble to
strengthen her ornaments and to push
forward her outposts along the Persian
frontier, with view to ultimate an
neXation, a design in which Germany
would probably acquiesce in consider
alton of receiving railway concessions.
LONDON, Jan. 19.-The cables have
been kept hot since last night when
reports, seemingly authentic, reached
here to the effect that $4,000 Russian
troops had left Trifiis, Trans Caucasia
for Baku. The report added that the
trools would proceed to konschtka
the frontier station of Afghanistan
The officials of the War Office decline
to discuss the report nor will they adj
nit that they have taken steps to
verify it. Nevertheless, it is known
that the British ambassador at St
Petersburg has been communicated
with. The report declares that Rus
sian troops will soon advance TO a
point nearer than Herat, the occupa-
tion of which it is declared hangs on
the movement of the British troops in
India.
The situation, taken into considera-
ton with the war in South Africa, is
decidedly complex and still more dan
gerous. Fully 100000 Russian soldiers
are now gathered close to the British
Indian frontier. News reached here
yesterday that General Yonoff has ar
rived at Konschtka, and it is known
that the Russian squadrons at Port Ar
thur and the Persian gulf are being
strengthened every day. There is also
well-defined report tnat France has
sent rush orders to have troops gath
cred on the frontier, which report
seems verified by the fact that the
French ambassador to the Vatican has
notified Pope Leo of the existence of a
F'ranco-Russian agreement by which
the exclusive influence of Russia in
European Turkey and that of France
in Asiatic Turkey are to be recognized.
1t is understood that this agreement
was reached during the visit to Paris
of Count Muravieff, the Russian Min
lister of Foreign Affairs.
