H., to ensure prompt insertion. Arthur Johnstone, Editor and Prop V. TUESDAY.., APRIL 27, 1886. The public will please take notice that the Bulletin, with its usual incon sistency, admits, in its local column of yesterday, the very point it refused to admit editorially on the' 13th of this month. We would suggest that.it is a 'bad symptom" to blow too much about faithfulness to the public Unless admissions of truth are sometimes made editorially as well as under the cover of the local column. If the treaty news received by the last mail from the United States proves to be reliable in the main, as we, with many others, hope and expect it will, from the certainty of the proposed new treaty having been recommended by the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs, it will become the duty of the people and Government of Hawaii to give the matter earnest and careful attention as soon as the facts of the case are made known officially. At the present time it would be less than useless tot enumerate thegreat advantages which would result to Hawaii if new treaty relations were entered into be tween the two Governments, both of whom could afford to be liberal in continuing and extending their commercial interests and trade relations- through an inexpensive exchange of political courtesies. While it is not as yet known what the new provisions and, political qualifications of the proposed new treaty will be, yet it is generally understood that the United States will request only such concessions of the Hawaiian Government as will be for the mutual benefit of the two countries. A new treaty would doubtless be more expensive for the United States than it would be for Hawaii, who would reap the first fruits of the new compact; it is, therefore, but reasonable that the Great Republic should ask that 'certain moderate considerations be passed so that the pew treaty would not turn out to be, as the lawyers say, a case of international nudum pactum. It is true that we have nothing further to rely upon than meagre patches and opinions expressed in private letters, written immediately after the action of the Senate Committee, yet it is so notoriously a fact that publicity is one of the chief characteristics of Congressional methods in the United States, that H is not overstepping the limits ,of a moderate proba bility to conclude that the proposed new treaty with Hawaii is put forth in good earnest and will be the basis of future friendly and reciprocal relations, which our citizens are a unit in hop ing will be the final result of our present suspense. We do not at present know, of course, how far "political considerations" will influence and affect the conditions of the new treaty, but we think the position of Senator Stanford, of California, may be taken as the key to the whole situation from the American stand point, when he declares, in speaking of the present Reciprocity Treaty, that "national interests involved in the case are paramount to those of a personal or commercial nature." Be this as it may, we do not think that the Senate'of the United States is ready to abrogate the present treaty even though the new treaty should not be successfully consummated. While speaking of the matter in a preliminary, manner, as we believe the dispatches warrant, we wish to say that we do not think that the old political questions, which agitated this community fourteen or fifteen years ago in relations to treaty matters, ought to be repeated at this time where political and international relations are essentially changed and have ceased to be at variance. Peace Propoiola from the Soudan. Alexandria, April 13. An emissary is believed to have left Khartoum for Cairo with a proposal of peace from El Mahdi's successor. ' FOREIGN NEWS. A TorrlMo St. Paul, Minn., April 15 St. Cloud and Sauk Rapids were swept by a terribly destructive cyclone about four o'clock yesterday afternoon. At St. Paul the cyclone destroyed over fifty houses, .including the Manitoba railroad depot and killing several horses near the western limits. When the cyclone reached Sauk Rapids four-fifths of the buildings were destroyed. The fatalities in St. Cloud, though great, are not equal to those in Sauk Rapids, where almost all the inmates in every hpuse were more or less hurt. The storm also devastated Rice Station near Sauk Rapids. A dispatch of April 1 6th says, the dismal work of searching for the dead among the debris of this storm-swept section still continues, and the recovered remains, blackened and mangled, are, being shrouded for the grave, while the wounded are receiving every possible attention The physicians from the neighboring cities are still on duty, tireless in their efforts. As the returns come in from the country in the track of the tornado, new fatalities are dis covered, and other cases of the maimed are bcine brought in for treatment. Np pen can depict the horrors of the scene. The final muster of casualties will surely swell the total of fatalities to 190 and the wounded tower 500. The Sugar Marltot. New York, April 14. The Com mercial Bulletin says : The sugar mar kct has lately shown excellent form, and appears in a fair way for substantial and permanent improvement The latest authoritative returns confirm the claims of shortage in the crops. In round numbers the receipts are 34,000 tons less, and stocks are 35,000 tons smaller for the United States than for the corresponding date last year. An even more significant fact is lhat the total stocks in consuming countries have within the fortnight changed from nearly one hundred thousand tons ex cess to some 27,000 tons less than last year at this period. These remarkable changes have infused a decided feeling of confidence among all the holders of raw sugars. The strength of the local position is greatly enhanced by the fact that refiners are poorly sup plied. Tho FilTbtutorlng Fiasco. New York, April 14. Gen. commander of the alleged filibuster, City of Mexico, said yesterday that the arrest of the steamer was entirely uncalled for. He was not "a filibuster and was simply going to Nicaragua to begin a colonization scheme there. He accuses the American Consular' agent at San Andreas of blackmailing him out of $500 on the plea of guaranteeing his safety and that of his ship. Tho Printers. San Francisco, April 15. The controversy between the Bulletin and Call printers and the Typographical Union have been harmoniously settled. ' A Government Victory. Ottawa, April 16. The amendment in the House of Commons last night that the Administration of Indian Affairs in Manitoba and the Northwest under the present Government has been characterized by extravagance, mismanagement, incapacity and culpable neglect, was defeated by 65 to "4- ( An Outbreak of Cholera- New York, April 16. ThcBerald's Rome special of April 15th says : The cholera has been rumored for some days past to be at Brindisi. To-day information was received that there have been sixty-two undoubted cases, with several deaths, of which three are undoubtedly from Asiatic cholera. There are also some cases in the coun try immediately around Brindisi, but it is difficult ta get at the precise facts on account of the reticence of the local authorities. Brindisi, April 16. Sixty-eight cases of cholera have occurred here, ten of which proved fatal. The officials declare the disease sporadic. Paris, April 16. The developments of cholera at Brindisi have caused alarm in France, particularly along the Italian frontier. Precautions of a most stringent kind are being instituted to prevent the scourge from crossing into France. Alexandria, April 16. Quarantine for seven days has been ordered against all arrivals here from Brindisi, Venice and Ancona. Franco and Germany. London, April 16. A significant remark, said to have been made by Prince Bismarck, has obtained extensive circulation in Berlin. The Chancellor is credited with saying that the disruption of the British Empire may necessitate the further partition of France and interests the Central Powers in the adoption of measures to suppress social democracy. This observation indicates that the relations of Germany to France are by no means as amicable as the diplomatic professions of friendship imply. France and tho Vatican. New York, April 15. A Rome special says the relations between France and the Vatican are again strained almost to the snapping point, and at any moment one or the other may take,a position which will at least temporarily put a stop to diplomatic intercourse. Since he assumed office, M, De Freycinet has been yielding to thepressureputupon himby the Radical advocates of the separation of Church and State in France.

On the other hand, the French Government has taken offense at the projected change of relations between Rome and China. Pope Leo has just resolved to treat directly with the Celestial Empire in future with all questions affecting Catholics in China, and to withdraw the privilege of pro tecting Chinese missions from I'rancc. The Papal-decision is not yet officially notified to I ranee, but in an anticipa tion of the rupture, it is reported that M. De Freycinet has sent Lefebrue DebehaineFrerich 'Aniba'ssador at the Vatican, letters of recall for production at the fitting moment Sonth Pnotilo Xilos. San Francisco; April 16. Advices from the Society Islands indicate a movement on the part of France to annex some of the islands A private letter from a missionary to E. I, Thayer, who deals largely with Tahiti, contains the following significant paragraph : "Several French vessels are now here in port. There is a probability that the leeward islands will soon be brought either under the protection of France or be fully annexed. The King of Tahiti received full honors as he returned the visit of the French Admiral; a royal salute, from two ships of war was simultaneously given him and the yards manned; and yet another salute from the ship was tendered him as he was pulled ashore." The firm of A. Crawford & Co. also received a letter, with the following statement: "The new French Admiral is here with three war vessels, and two more are expected. It is believed that the Raiatea, Huaheine and Bora Bora Islands will be annexed under the French flag' Mr. Miller, British Consul at Tahiti, now in this city, states that he can offer no intelligible explanation of the present state of affairs. The treaty of 1847 is yet in force, and France cannot annex the islands without involving herself seriously with England. (general Jbbcvtisnitcnts. Crystal Soda Works. -MANUFACTURERS OT SOID.A.
