Against Annexation of Philippines Trade Income Would Not Cover the Expenses. NEW YORK. Dec. 2. The World's Washington special say3: Senator Hale of Maine, one of the most pro nounced Republican anti-expansionists in Congress, who is expected to lead the fight against the treaty, tonight dictated this statement for the World: "The negotiation of the treaty, un fortunate as it is, by no means insures the actual annexation of the Philip pine Islands. It is uncertain -when the treaty will be signed or when it will be submitted to tho Senate, and still more uncertain whether or not it will ever be ratified. The entire trade of the islands, if we had it all not the profit derived from it, but the whole amount of trade will not in any year pay the expense of the army and navy that the United States will be obliged io maintain there. "The people will see at once sprung upon Congress the proposition for a standing army of 100,000 men, costing yearly more than $100,000,000. and a naval increase of from $15,000,000 to $30,000,000 a year in addition, all of which must come by levy of taxation. Xct only will no war tax be repealed, but the p:ssent tax must be increased. "The people of the Pacific coast will find out that if we admit eight or ten millions of Malays, Tagals and Ne gritos to become a part of our popu lation and to have some or all of the privileges of citizenship, we must nec essarily give to the Chinese who are already in the country the same priv ileges." AX OFFER BY JAPAN. NEW YORK, Dec. S. A special to the Sun from Washington says: Sena tor Kyle of South Dakota is authority for the statement, which he declares he makes on semi-ofRcial authority, that Japan ihas offered this Govern ment $200,000,000 for the Philippine islands. He says that there is a dis tinct sentiment in official circles in favor of eventually turning tho islands over to Japan or to seme other power or powers. These statements are given some weight by the fact that yesterday Sen ator Kyle had an interview with the President concerning our policy in the Philippines. Senator Kyle declares he will vote for ratification of the p-eace treaty and that he considers it to be the duty of every Senator to do so. He says be is opposed, however, to having the United States hold all tlie islands permanently, and believes that this Government should be satisfied with retaining some point, in the islands as a naval base and coaling station. GARCIA DEAD. WASHINGTON, Dec. 11. Gen. Cal ixto Garcia, the distinguished Cuban warrior and' leader and the bead of the Commission elected by the Cuban As sembly to visit this country, died here this morning shortly after 10 o'clock at the Hotel Raleigh, where the Com mission has its headquarters. The sudden change from the warm climate of Cuba, with the hardships he had there endured, to the wintry weather of New York and Washington, is re sponsible for the pneumonia which re sulted in his demise. He contracted a slight cold in New York, which did not assume an alarming stage until the early part of last week. DREYFUS CASE. LONDON, Dec. 10. The latest de velopments in the Dreyfus affair all tend in favor of Dreyfus and public opinion in France is undoubtedly veer ing to his side. Tbe decision of the Court of Cassation, which postponed the Picquart court-martial indefinitely i3 a damaging blow to the military party, and the attempt to discredit his evidence has failed. J. fi.

Statements from far away places. Whaf people say in Queensland. Public expression from New Zea land. Oftimes good indorsement there. But of little service here at home. Sydney people want local proof. The sayings of neighbors, friends and citizens. Iloma endorsement counts. It di-sarms the skeptic, is beyond dispute. This is the backing that stands be hind every box of Doan's Ointment. Here is a case of it: T. W. Hickson, of No. 170 Cumber land street, this city, says: "For a few weeks I was very much inconvenienced by an attack of itching piles, from which I could get no relief. Doan's Ointment was first advertised at that time and I obtained a pot of U. I am glad to say that the piles completely disappeared after three applications of the ointment and I've not had occasion to use it since. I will not forget to recommend Doan's Ointment." Experience with Doan's Ointment In the past three years has demonstrated to the medical profession, as well as to thousands of sufferers from piles, that it is the safest and most effectual cure ever offered to the public, con taining no opiates or poisons of any kind, painless and convenient to han dle, and being sold by dealers at 50c per box, is within the reach of every sufferer. Very frequently two or three boxes have made a complete cure of chronic cases that, have not yielded to other remedies for years. There is scarcely a disease more ag gravating and obstinate to cure than the various forms of piles. Doan's Ointment has superceded all ineffect ual remedies and no one suffering with any rectal trouble makes any mistake in giving Doan's Ointment a trial. Any dealer can furnish the Doan's Ointment as it is the best known and most popular remedy for piles and if you ask him he can doubtless refer you to many people in your vicinity who have been cured completely by it. DOAN'S Ointment i3 for sale by all dealers for 5Cc per box, or six boxes for $2.50, or will be mailed on receipt of price by the Hollister Drug Co., Ltd., Honolulu, agents for the Islands.
