March 29 to tho Chronicle:
Couched in tho language by
which Texas was mado a State of
tho Union, a joint resolution
providing for tho annexation
of Hawaii to the United
States was introduced in tho
House tuduy by ltopruson
tativo Spalding of Michigan. It
is the same as that intr ducod by
him last session. Under its pro
visions Congress giv-s consent
that tho Hawaiian Islxnds may
be erected into a new Stato to bo
known as the St'ite of Hawaii.
with u rcpubliuuu form of govoru-
mont.
Tho f-oling of tho Administra
tion toward Hawaii has already
been shown as most friendly.
"While ProMduut McKinley has
iiuvor pai iu.o worda I113 belief
that the timo has come for tho
drawing together of the Govern
ments, it has beou known for
some time that he favored
defmito action on this line.
Tho Secretary of Statu is op
posed to annexation. Not only
does ho not want to tuko Hnwaii
into the United States, but ho
does not favor the addition of auy
territory to that at present
comprising tho Republic
Ho hon snid recontly, how
ovor, ou this subject, that
ho is in the Stato Uepurtmont to
carry out the wishes and policy of
the President
Annexation is not tho pros-nt
aim of tho representatives of tn
wafi ox Ministor Thurston, At

tion of a torntory under .tho

tlmt there is not siilliciout Auglo

They say, however, that as a

Washington, Mnrch 31. Sona
tor Perkins was apprised today by
wiro that two more momorinls
from tho sugar beet growers of
California, nsking for tho abroga
tion of tho reciprocity treaty with
Hawaii, wero ou tho way to him.
Whon thoy arrive thoy willbo trans

this feature of tho Diiigloy tariff
bill.
The fuel that the oppononts of
tho reciprocity troaty ni--do no
fight 011 it in the House indicates
that all possible u eight has been
exortod in the Senate. Senator
Perkins, when tho subject was
fust bio'ight up, saw tlieRiimb

prcssed their b 1 of tlmt tho Am
erican party- could not ull'ord to
oppose tin wan or throw unyiiiing
in tho way of closer relations
with tho islands.
Henry Oxnnrd, who is mnkiug
tho light, said today that he had
assurances that many leading men
on the Republican sidohad chang
ed their views on the matter.
Members of tho Finance Commit
tee, who aro now atwoik ou tho
tariff bill, will not discuss their
standing, as the sugar schedule
has not beon touched and they
rofuso to forecast their action. It
is believed tho attack ou the treaty
will tuko tho form of omitting
from the tariff bill if sufficient
strength is developed that
clauso of tho sugar schedule
which roads: Provided, that
nothing herein contained shall bo
so construed as to abrogate or in
auy mauner impair or affect tho
provisions of tho treaty of com
mercial reciprocity concluded be

King of tho Hawaiian islands ou
tho 30th day of Jauuary, 1875, or
tho provisions of any act of Con
gress heretofore passed for execu

The proviso has stood in ovory
tariff lull up to the present time,
and there wonld bo a hard fight
against its elimination in tho

Colonel Fishor, Major MoLeod
and othirs interested in tho pro
posed now armory building
ropudiato in toto tho statements
mado in this morning's paper that
a cortain subscription list with a
heading or pioapeolua attached
has been propared for presenta
tion to tho business community
in the hopes that sutfisiont funds
may be raised to start tho work.
Colonol Fishor mado the follow
ing statement of tho affair and
how tho suppoBod prospectus
came into the bauds of the Adver
tiser to a Bulletin representa
tive this morning:
A fow days ago a certain party
came to mo aud asked to bu al
lowed to eulist in tho regulars,
sayiug that he was out of
work and could get nothing to do.
I mlviaed tho man not to enlist,
bityiug that l.o uuht 10 wait n lit
tlo and try and find something
more suitanlc. Knowing that ho
hud beeu connected with the presB
1 thought I would give him a lit
tle writing to do to help him out.
1 told him that the committee on
tho now armory hud very little
timo to spare, but were anxious to
gpt the nrmory project started.
That if ho would draw up a sort
of draft of a pronpectus as a basis
for tho committee to work ou, on
lines which I suggested to him
there and thon, aud which appear
ed in a previous interview pub
lished in tho Bulletin, I would
pay him for his 'work out of my
own pocket. Ho said he
wonld do so, and went off.
I think it was yesterday ho
handed mo a folded paper which I
put in my pocket, not having timo
to read it. When I saw the sup
posed prospectus printed in tho
Advertiser this morning I referred
to tho paper in my pocket and
found that tho wording was iden
tical. I have since beeu inform
ed that ono of the Advertiser mou
had a copy of the document be
fore the origiual was given to me.
"You may state if you wish, as
coming from mo, that the commit
tee on the armory building, con
sisting of Major J. W. Joues,
Captain E. O. Whito and mysdf,
has not yet held a meeting, that
wo have formulated no prospectus
or heading for subscription list or
h ij 'li'i'g o" ! k'nil ,ud that tho
publication of any sinh document
as appeared lu print this morning
has not been sauctionod by the
committoo and thut for myself 1
repudiate it.
"You may stato further that I
have nover had any intention of
nor have I evor advocatod tho col
lection of funds by popular sub
.yriyi; p. jy idea Iihs been to
raise funds by meaiiB of couoorts,
ontortaiumonts and dances and to
givo value received for all tho
money we get. Of course, if any
merchant feels like contributing
to tho fund, his donation will bo
gratefully roceivod, but the com
mitteo will not bo found going
round on tiny begging expeditious.
"Tho publication of tho so-called
prospectus is to bo regretted,
but thoso aro the facts of tho mat
ter." Nilbinurlnfi Pnlut.
