An active, hustling series of efforts are being made by the members of the Chris- tian Endeavor Society of the District of Columbia to have the great international convention of 1806 meet in this city. A pre- liminary committee, of which Mr. W. H. H. Smith is the chairman, and the members are leading and active represntatives of Christian Endeavor societies throughout the District, have in charge the interests of this city in this respect. They are doing excellent work, During the past month, owing to the fact that the Moody meetings were going on, the committee have held no meetings. Their work, however, has not come to a standstill. This was evident at the meeting last evening of the committee at their headquarters, 1409 New York ave- nue. The chairman, Mr. Smith, presided, and there was a full attendance. It was stated by the chairman that reports had been received from a number of state unions in regard to their choice of a place for the meeting of the convention in 186. Of those responding a large majority were in favor of Washington, and a great many Every Rubber Hot Water | Rottle in stock has been re- duced: J-quart Bottles Zquart Bottles B-quart Bottles 4-quart Bottles Hot Water wow now $1.

Coke Co., 615 7th St. +e ak AR Ad One De ee of these were enthusiastically in favor of this city. The selection of a convention city lies | with the board of directors, but the voice ef the state unions is naturally a potent one with the board, and the indications are that that voice will be largely for Wash- ington. The various subcommittees into which the preliminary committee is divided gave encouraging accounts of the yarious parts of the work assigned to their care. It is proposed to present to the board of directors a request, signed by 1,000 of the leading business and professional men of this city, asking that the convention meet here two years hence. A large number of these signatures have already been cb- tained, and the committee report that every ‘one who is approached , signs with alacrity. ” A Proposed Big Hall. It is the intention of the committee to issue a booklet which will give in concise form the many advantages of this city as a place for such a meeting. This booklet will soon be in press and ready for dis- tribution. A large hall is to be erected, and, while the plans have not all been per- fected, the idea now is to put up a build- ing, temporary in characte>, and seating some 20,000 people, in the immediate vicin- ity Gf Convention Hall. In that event both buildings can be used. The Endeavorers of this city publish a monthly paper, and the next issue will have a supplement which will be in the interests of Washington in '% and Cleve- land in "#4 It will contain cuts of the headquarters of the District delegation in Cleveland, views of the city, and other matter, It is the desire that Washington should be represented at the coming con- vention in Cleveland in July next by as large a delegation as possible. Some think that » Endeavorers will go from this city, while others are of the opinion that the delegation will number 4. However that may be, it is the intention to hold a series of mass meetings eve-y two weeks in different parts of the city for the pur- pose of stirring up an interest in both the convention of this year and that of ‘96. The first of these mass meetings will be held on Monday evening next at the First Cong-egational Church. Rev. Dr. Tyler, the chairman of the Cleveland convention committee, will be present and deliver an address. THE HAWAIIAN TREATY. ‘There Will Be Opposition t the Understanding.

Shafer This treaty provides for a general ex- change of the products of the two countries free of duty and includes sugar as the principal Hawaiian export to this coun- try, the United States in turn being per- mitted to export agricultural implements and other machinery and manufactures of woolen and cotton textile fabrics, as well as a great variety of other article: to Hawaii without the payment of du It also contains a provision that no other | foreign government than this shall acquire title to any port or harbor in the Hawaiian Islands. There are a number of Senators on the democratic side who will object to the clause, and it is believed that the repub- Mean party in the Senate will be almost solid in its opposition. Already objection is heard not only because the termination of the treaty would deprive this country of valuable prerogatives in the islands, but because also of the fact that the action contemplated would be a serious blow to the sugar planters of the islands, whose business, it is contended, is dependent sole- ly upon maintaining free commercial inter- couree with the United States. The clause was inserted as a conces- sion to the sugar interest of this country, whose friends in the Senate will exert their influence to have it retained. During 1893 288,517,929 pounds of sugar and 67,324 gallons of molasses were import- ed from Hawall. These importations, at the | lowest rates fixed by the Senate bill, would, if the treaty should be abrogated. bring a revenue to the treasury amounting to §2,- as THE STAMP CONTRACT. Mr. Bingham Still Wants the Werk Done by Private Firms. Representative Bingham of Philadelphia is preparing to urge amendments tc priation bills by which the ¢ will be prohibited from carry out See- retary Carlisle's plan of printing its own postage stamps. As a preliminary to this move Mr. Bingham iniroduced resolutions calling on Secretary Carlisle and Postmas- ter General Bissell for information os to stamps was given, to the bureau of grav- ing and rinting. Secretary Carlisle re- sponded yesterday, showing the amouni the | government would save by doing its own printing of stamps. Mr. Bissell is yet. to ve heard from. When these replies are in hand, Mr. Bingham will turn his attention | to the appropriation bills, and will move amendments to the sundry civli and to the post office appropriation bills, specifically defining that work on the stamps shall be done by private institutions. Mr. Bingham says the absorption by the government of printing and other private industries is in the line of paternalism, which the founders of democracy denounced. He will urge that this policy of government competition with And over 300 others in Washington. * arth& Edmonston private enterprises {is unjust.

The announcement is made that Mr. Lorin Thurston, the Hawaiian minister, and Miss Harriet W, Potter will be married the latter part of this month at the home of the latter, at St. Joseph, Mich. Miss Potter has spent the winter in San Francisco at the mid-winter exposition as secretary of the Hawaiian village, and while she was employed in the same capac- ity in Chicago first met Mr. Thurston. They renewed their acquaintance in San Fran- cisco, with the result above mentioned. | Miss Potter has now returned to her home. |Mr. Thurston is about forty-eight years of |age, a widower, and the father of @ little | boy, who is now here with the minister's mother.
