WORK OF CONGRESS. Condensed Proceedings of the Na- tional Law Mill. Washington, June 17.—In the great diplomatic room of the state depart- ment, the representatives of the gov- ernments of the United States and Hawaii gathered and signed a treaty by the terms of which, if ratified, the little island republic will become a part present Secretary Sherman. Assistant Secretaries Day, Adee and Cridler, Private Secretary Babcock and As sistant Private Secretary Gaytree. On the Hawaiian side were Minister Hatch, Lorrin A. Thurston and W. A Kinney, all for this particular occasion accredited as special commissioners, duly empowered to negotiate a treaty of annexation. Before the final signature of the doc- ument the secretary of state was pre- sented a formal protest 5v the Japan- ese government througi its legation here, against the consummation of the of the territory of the United States. Fof the United States there were agreement. The protest is understoou to be based on apprehension that the special treaties now existing between under which the antages, willbe af- e enjoy fected injuriously by complete annexa- tion. Jap: po hington, June 17.—The treaty for the annexation of the Hawaiian islands reached the senate chamber at 5 o'clock yesterday. The senate at once went into executive sess! soon as the doors we message of President companying the treaty, Me! Kinle: and the itself, were read to the senate. They were attentively listened to. In one part of the ¢ mber there was a group of senators who will bitterly op- pose the ratification of the treaty among them were Senators ¢ Mills, Pasco, White Caffery, Pettigrew and McEne As soon as the reading of the documents were completed, Senator Davis. chairman of the com- mittee on foreign relations, moved that the message and the treaty be made public. Senator Gray objected to a vote on the motion, and, under the rules, a single objection carried the { motion over for a day. The message of the president was not a very long document. It dealt with historical facts concerning the island and showed that the United States and Hawaii yearly grow more closely bound to each other. This was not really annexation, he said, but a con- tinuation of existing relations with closer bonds between people closely re- lated by blood and kindred ties. The treaty proved to be a simple doc- ument of articles, based in its’ es- sential details upon the treaty nego- tiated by Hon. John W. Foster during the administration of President Har- rison. It is practically without con- ditions, leaving the United States to pursue its own course with reference to their management. The first arti- ele reads as follows: “The government of the Hawaiian islands hereby cedes. from the date of the exchange of the ratifications of this treaty, absolute and without re- serve, to the United States forever all wha tsoever rights of sovereignty of kind in and over the Haw and their dependencies, renouncing in favor of the United States every % an indepen ereign right of which, as ent nation, it is now pos henceforth. said Hawaiian shall become and be an integral part of the territory of the United States.” The Hawaiian government cedes to the United States the absolute owner- ship of all the public lands. public buildings, ports, harbors, fortifications, military and naval equipments and all other government property. It is spe- cifically provided, however, that the existing land laws of the United States shall not apply to the public lands of Hawaii, but that spe laws shail be made from time to time for their dis- position, the proceeds of any sales of these lands to be al purposes in the islands. s are for the present to constitute a ter- of the United States, their local remaining in force until new on are enacted. A local legislature is pro- vided for, but the veto power is ves ed entirely in the president of the United States. A commission of tive persons, consisting of three Americans and two E aiians, to be nominated by the president and confirmed by the senate is provided for the purpose of formulating the inode of government for the islands. The treaties of the United States with other countries are substituted for tbe treaties of Hawaii with the same countries in controlling interna- tional relations of the islands. Further immigration of Chinese laborers to the ands is prohibited and the laws re- g Chinese immigration to the United States are made to apply to the ion of Chinese removing from to this countr This countey ‘ to assume the debt of the island republic to the extent of $4,000,000. BSS Washington, June 17. — The senate made rapid work on the tariff bill. There were no long speeches and the debate was of a snappy character, which at times enlivened but did not delay the serious work on the bill. Thirteen pages were disposed of, car- rying the senate through the agricul- turanl schedule and up to schedule H, relating to spirits, wines, ete. During the day the paragraphs on dairy prod- ucts, farm products, fish, fruit and nuts, meat products and miscellane- ous agricultural products were acted en. The finance committee proposed many changes, in the main advancing rates somewhat over those heretofore reported. The committee was sus- tained on every vote, although a con- test was made on almost every para- graph. Mr. Vest’s motion to restore salt to the free list was rejected—31 to 24. The important paragraph propos- ing a tax on tea went over at the sug- gestion of Mr. Allison, who expressed hope that this duty on tea might be dispensed with. The bill was laid aside at 5 o'clock and a message from the president was announced.. Mr. Davis immediately secured an executive session. Washington, June 18: — The senate made greater progress on the tariff bill than on any day since the debate opened. The entire schedules covering twenty pages were completed, namely, schedules H, on spirits. wines and beverages, and I, on manufactured cotton goods. This brings the senate to the flax schedule, with the important ‘ool schedule standing next. The por- tion of tho bill passed is substantially the same as reported, all committee changes being unimportant, while the opposition ‘amendments of Mr. Jones of Arkansas and Mr. Vest were sys- tematically rejected by majorities varying from 5 to 10. Mr. Allison se- cured the addition of a new paragraph to the cotton schedule with a view to compensating cotton manufacturers for the recent action of the senate in placing raw cotton on the dutiable list. In paragraph 2: on motion of Mr. Allison, the house provision was re- stored. The remaining paragraphs on spirits (290 to 293 inclusive) were agreed to as reported without oppo- sition. The wine paragraph led to some dis- cussion. That on champagne and oth- er sparkling wines was agreed to as reported. The committee paragraph on still wines was perfected by strik- ing out the provision for an additional duty of 3 cents dn each bottle or jug and the substitution of a provision that the filled bottles or jugs shall pay the same duty cs if empty. Washington, June 19.—The tariff bill came to a halt in the senate, less than one page ot the flax schedule being disposed of. The debate drifted into political, channels, Senators Bacon, Vest, Jones (Ar nd Tillman taking part in an exposition of Democratic doctrine on the tariff. It led to sev- eral lively excha s, during which the cleaning of political “dirty linen” was frequently referred to. Mr. Tillman remarks were made in his character- istic vehemence, and at one point he frankly stated concerning the tariff ioat if there was to be stealing he wanted his share for South Carolina. The consideration of the tariff bill recumed at schedule J. relating to hemp and jute and manufacturers thereof. Mr. Vest made a test contest at the outset, moving to strike out the first paragraph, flax straw, at $5 per ton. He said the whole flax schedule was based on the idea that we could produce the flax, but he denied this. Ireland was the only country in which the flax for linen could be successfal- ly produced, and he declared that the Minnesota flax had not proved satis- factory. ‘The amendment was rejected —18 to 28—Mr. McEnery voting with the Republicans. Mr. Allison, in charge of the bill, withdrew the senate amendment on flax, not hackled or dressed, leaving the house rate of 1 cent per pound stand. He also with- drew the committee amendment on dressed flax, leaving the house rate of 3 cents. Late in the day Mr. Morgan pr posed 2 sweeping amendr: ent to place a 19 per cent ad valorem duty on all articles now on the free list with a few stated exceptions. In supporting the amendment Mr. Morgan called atten- tion to the singular fact that the in- come tax feature of the Wilson bill is not repealed and can be inferced by a change of the personnel of the supreme court of the United States. Washington, June 21.—The da rendered noteworthy in the senate by the deteat of the finance omnes on fcur important paragraphs in the flax, hemp and jute schedule of the tariff bill. These were the paragraphs re- x to floor mations: plain jute ics, burlaps and cotton bagging. The Democrats were enabled to carry their points against these paragraphs by the assistance of the silver Repub- licans and Populists and by the help of Messrs. Carter and Hansbrough, straight Republicans, on the ps graph relating to matting. It was the first vote during the consideration of the bill on which any Republican had broken away from the party, and nat- urally occasioned some comment. The flax question was taken up, the ing question being on Mr. Alli- motion to amend paragraph $27, relating to thread, twine, etc., made of flax, hemp or remie, by substituting for the senate rate the rate of 14 cents per pound, and 7-8 cents addi- tional for each lea in excess of five. Mr. Vest and Mr. Jones contested the. proposed change, arguing that the rates were excessive, while Mr. Alli- son contended that they were essen- tial as a compensatory duty for the increased rates on the raw material al- ready provided. Mr. Allison’s amend- ment ¥ agreed to — 26 to 19. Mr. Allison moved to increase the rates in paragraph 328, relating to yarns, mak- ing the rate 7 cents instead of 6 cents a pound on single yarns in the sray, not finer than eight lea or number, proposed in the original finance com- mittee amendment, and 50 per cent ad valorem instead of 40 per cent on single yarns, finer than eight and not finer than eighty lea in number. Agreed to without division. The com- mittee amendments to flax gill net- tings were agreed to. Mr. Vest took exception to the in- erease on floor mattings, saying the duties as proposed would range from 40 per cent to 105, whereas they had leretofore been free. He moved to strike out the entire section. On roll call the senate accepted Mr. Vest’'s amendment striking out para- graph 330 in regard to fioor mattings, the vote standing 25 to 2: Messrs. Carter and Hansbrough (straight Re- publicans), Mantle, Pettigrew and Teller (silver Republicans) voted with the Democrats on this motion. Paragraphs 341 (jute grain bags and burlaps) and 342 (bagging for cotton, gunny cloth, etc.) were considered to- gether and aroused some discussion. A motion to strike out the two para- graphs in regard to burlaps and cloth for cotton bagging was carried—31 to 28. The effect of the vote is to leave these articles on the free list. Going back, Mr. Jones moved to strike out paragraph 339 (plain woven fabrics of single jute yarns). This motion also prevailed—29 to 28. Mr. Allison, in behalf of the com- mittee, proposed a modfiication of paragraph 344, in regard to woven fabrics, reducing the rate on articles containing between 60 and 120 threads from 3 cents to 23-4 cents per yard; on’ those between 120 and 180 threads from 7 cents to 6 cents, and on those of more than 180 threads from 10 cents to 9 cents. The committee amendments were accepted. The next paragraph, 345, was agreed to without division. This concluded the hemp schedule and brought the senate face to face with the wool schedules. After the passage, at the instance of Mr. Mantle, of a bill providing for the erection of a public building at Butte, Mont., to cost $300,000, the senate ad- journed.
