THE TREATY IN THE SENATE.
WASHINGTON, June 16th,
|
The news of the protest was a great suprise to the Hawaiian Legallon, and as fron as latciligence of it was mblained, Minister Hatch started out to learn the particulars. The essen that point as to the protest, it is wild at the Hawaiian Legation, is whether the protest is against the anexation of Hawall, or is simply a protest reserving to Japan all her rights under the existing treaty with Hewall. It in bollered to be the latter.
in 1871 and provides that pays or chilzens The Japanese tronly with Hawali was made
right to enter into, realde and trade in the of nae country shall hava the uninterrupted other country, and shall also have the rights and pelvilögra enjiyed by the people of any other country under treaty stipulations with Japan. Japan under the treaty consequently has a perfect right to have ber immigrants enter the Hawaiian lands. Under fäternational law the annexsiton of Hawalf to the United
States would abrogate this treaty. Moreover, new treaty between the United States and Japan, made some time ago and to become effective in 1899 provides that the United States may exclade Yapanest. Il Hwall is annexed the effect would be to permit the United States to exel-de the Japanese from Hawall
At the Japanese Legasion the document filed by the Japança Minister is not regarded as a protest agatost the Hawaiian treaty, but is con- sidered as a request for official Information. There appears, however, to be to doubt that zs 2000 as Japan is notified officially of the signing of the convention, that the Government of the United States will be informed that Japan expecta and demands their recognition of all the rights and privileges which she now cejays under the existing treaties with Hawali.
While percell annexation of the Hawaiian islands would abrogate the exlitlog treation of that country with foreign powers, Japan probably
i contend that the United States must kasume and respect Kawali's obligations to foreign
powers.
BLITISH AND FRENCH PIESS ON THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION.
LONDON, June 17th. Most of the morning papers contalo editorials on the proposed annexation of the Hawalian blands,
The Standard says:—The natives wil better off under the American Government than

They were attentively listened to,
In one part of the chamber there was a groop of Senators who bitterly opposed the ratlfiction of the treaty. Among them were Grey, Mills, Paice, While, Caffery, Pettigrew and McEnery. As soon as the reading of the documents was completed Serator, Davis, chairman of the Commitee on Foreign Relations, moved that the message and the treaty be made public.
Senator Gray objected to vote on the motion and, under the roles, a single objecalon carried the motion over until to-morrow. executive session he would renew the motion for Senator Darts gave notice that at the neri publication, as all the essential facts and aimest a verbatim copy of the treaty bad been pubilabed in the press of the country,
There was some discussion ar to when the treaty might be considered and Senator Walte asked if I was the lateniion to press it at this session, and upon the reply being made that It was possible, the Californa Senator said "I desire to sonce dai I am prepared to stay here all sammer to prevent the satiscation, which I consider a very bad proposition."
"If Jain you," sald Senator Pattigrew al South Dakots.
The Telegraph says:-No political complica tions are likely to ensue, but it is for the Ameri- Cant to square annexation with the Monras doctrine. England's interest in the event is only sentimental
