The Youngstown News. VOL XVII. YOUJVGSTOWK, N. Y.% FKIDAY, JUNE 25, 1897. " vwHH THE HAWAIIAN TREATY. The Annexation Convention Sent to the Senate. JAPAN HAS ENTERED A PROTEST. The Plenipotentiaries Sign the Document in the Diplomatic Boom of the State Department-Transmitted to the Senate With a Menace from President McKlnlejr—The Proposed Condition!. Washinotox, D. 0. (Special).—President McKlnley sent to the Senate the draft of • new treaty for the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands by the United States, signed at the State Department Wednesday morn- Ing, together with a message giving a historical review of the relations between the Islands and the United States, and urging the ratification of the treaty. Immediately after its delivery by Private Secretary Pru«en, the Senate, on motion of Senator Davis. Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, went into executive session and the message and treaty were read. The treaty was signed by the plenipotentiaries of the United States and Hawaii, appointed by their respective Governments for that purpose, in the diplomatic room ot the State Department at 9.30 o'clock a. m. There was no one present save the nigh contracting parties, the Assistant Secretaries, and the representatives of the press. The treaty was signed in duplicate by Secretary Sherman for the United States, and Minister Francis M. Hatch and Special Commissioners Lorin M. Thuniton and H. W. Kenny for Hawaii, a new gold pen was osed. After the signatures had been attached and hearty congratulations exflhanged.a photographer perpetuated the soene by the aid of the cainera. Before the final signature of the document the Secretary of State was presented with a formal protest by the Japanese Government, through its legation here, against the consummation of the agreement. The treaty provides that the Government ot the Hawaiian Islands ; ;»des to the United States absolutely and forever all rights of sovereignty in and over the Hawaiian Islands and its dependencies and that these Islands shall become an integral part of the territory of the United States. The Government of Hawaii also cedes to the United States all publio lands, public buildings and public property of every description. Congress shall enaot speotal laws to govern the disposition of the lands In the Hawaiian Islands. All revenue from these lands shall be used solely for the benefit ot the Inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands for educational and other publio purposes. The Hawaiian Islands shall be admitted , tato the Union as a Territory ot the United States, loeai tow* to be passed toy a local r legislature, but subjeot to the approval of ■■■ the President. Until Congress shall applythe laws of the gstta* States to the islands, the pretest l*we ot Hawaii are to govern the Island*. The present treaties and laws governing ■•wall's commercial relations with foreign nations shall remain Iα force until OoUtrBS I i.n—tin" *"'~r action. Further Immigration of ; Chinese laborers is prohibited pending Oon eressional action, and the entry of Chinese ! from Hawaii into the United States likewise Iβ prohibited. The United States assumes the publio debt ot Hawaii, but with a stipulation that this liability shaU not exceed »4,000,000. The treaty before it becomes effective shall be ratified by the proper authorities ot the United States and Hawaii. No mention Iβ made of any gratuity to Llliuokalanl orKalulanl. Tu* news of the protest of Japan was a great surprise to the Hawaiian Legation. The essential point as to the protest, It is said at the Hawaiian Legation, is whether the protest is against the annexation of Hawaii or is merely a protest reserving to Japan all her rights under the existing treaty with Hawaii. It is believed that it is the latter. This treaty, made in 1871, provides that natives or oitirens of one country shall have the uninterrupted right to enter into, reside and trade In the other country. Under international law the annexation ot Hawaii to the United States would abrogate this treaty Moreover, a new treaty between the United States and Japan, made some time ago, to become effective in 1899, provides that the United States may exclude Japanese. If Hawaii Is Annexed, the effect would be to permit the United States to exclude the Japanese from Hawaii. MINISTER TO SPAIN CHOSEN. General Stewart 1. Woodford Nominated by the President.

Duffy, of Boston, l/i rapping the ball this year as he rapped It Jα IBM. Boston has sixteen men under contract, and six of them are pitchers. New York, Boston and Baltimore are the only teami that have not yet been shut out. Umpire Lynch says that most of the umpire's trouble* comes from the managers who sit on the bench. Latham, whose antics once kept the League in laughter, is now captain and first baseman of the Mansfleid (Ohio) team. Manager Selee, of Boston, received only 9800 from Washington for Tucker. A year ago the veteran could not be purchased at any price. , In two years the St. Louis team won four games from the Baltlmores. Three of the four victories were won on the Baltimore grounds. HoekalexU, the Indian, is certainly malting a wonderful debut. He has played great ball and also batted well for the Cleveland*. KeOarr has been released by the Cleveland*, and another good third baseman is out of a>job on account of not being able to bat up to the .800 mark. The Bostons are now very generally aooeptedaaatesm of pennant possibilities, and the more they develop that oharaoteristlo the harder they will be to defeat, for luolc always seems to follow suocese in baseball as well as In some other matters. Bays Anson: "The Baltlmores struck their top speed last season, and I never in my life heard of a luckier' team than this aKBreflation of Hanlon's. While I am not one of the luck or ohance-blow philosophers, still I must say that the Orioles have met with less hard luck, that Is, physical Injuries, than, any team that ever won the pennant." Over the grave of the father of base ball, Harry Wright,in West Laurel HlllCemetry, Philadelphia, was recently erected by the Harry Wright Memorial Association the life-slue bronze statue of him. The statue represents the veteran manager standing erect, in citizens' attire, homing In one hand a soft felt bat and in the other a pair of eyeglasses. Says the Cleveland World: "Another, thing which happens you have noted at ball games will, when brought to mind, make yon more ready to forgive the umpire. A oloae decision at first base will be hooted at by the left line bleacherites, WbUe those Ja the fleet base stand wUI not uplift a voloe. The first baser* aaw the play end knew the empire was right, but the others, at a different point of view, thought he wv wrong." CYCLING NOTES.

The Youngstown News. VOL XVII. YOUJVGSTOWK, N. Y.% FKIDAY, JUNE 25, 1897. " vwHH THE HAWAIIAN TREATY. The Annexation Convention Sent to the Senate. JAPAN HAS ENTERED A PROTEST. The Plenipotentiaries Sign the Document in the Diplomatic Boom of the State Department-Transmitted to the Senate With a Menace from President McKlnlejr—The Proposed Condition!. Washinotox, D. 0. (Special).—President McKlnley sent to the Senate the draft of • new treaty for the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands by the United States, signed at the State Department Wednesday morn- Ing, together with a message giving a historical review of the relations between the Islands and the United States, and urging the ratification of the treaty. Immediately after its delivery by Private Secretary Pru«en, the Senate, on motion of Senator Davis. Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, went into executive session and the message and treaty were read. The treaty was signed by the plenipotentiaries of the United States and Hawaii, appointed by their respective Governments for that purpose, in the diplomatic room ot the State Department at 9.30 o'clock a. m. There was no one present save the nigh contracting parties, the Assistant Secretaries, and the representatives of the press. The treaty was signed in duplicate by Secretary Sherman for the United States, and Minister Francis M. Hatch and Special Commissioners Lorin M. Thuniton and H. W. Kenny for Hawaii, a new gold pen was osed. After the signatures had been attached and hearty congratulations exflhanged.a photographer perpetuated the soene by the aid of the cainera. Before the final signature of the document the Secretary of State was presented with a formal protest by the Japanese Government, through its legation here, against the consummation of the agreement. The treaty provides that the Government ot the Hawaiian Islands ; ;»des to the United States absolutely and forever all rights of sovereignty in and over the Hawaiian Islands and its dependencies and that these Islands shall become an integral part of the territory of the United States. The Government of Hawaii also cedes to the United States all publio lands, public buildings and public property of every description. Congress shall enaot speotal laws to govern the disposition of the lands In the Hawaiian Islands. All revenue from these lands shall be used solely for the benefit ot the Inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands for educational and other publio purposes. The Hawaiian Islands shall be admitted , tato the Union as a Territory ot the United States, loeai tow* to be passed toy a local r legislature, but subjeot to the approval of ■■■ the President. Until Congress shall applythe laws of the gstta* States to the islands, the pretest l*we ot Hawaii are to govern the Island*. The present treaties and laws governing ■•wall's commercial relations with foreign nations shall remain Iα force until OoUtrBS I i.n—tin" *"'~r action. Further Immigration of ; Chinese laborers is prohibited pending Oon eressional action, and the entry of Chinese ! from Hawaii into the United States likewise Iβ prohibited. The United States assumes the publio debt ot Hawaii, but with a stipulation that this liability shaU not exceed »4,000,000. The treaty before it becomes effective shall be ratified by the proper authorities ot the United States and Hawaii. No mention Iβ made of any gratuity to Llliuokalanl orKalulanl. Tu* news of the protest of Japan was a great surprise to the Hawaiian Legation. The essential point as to the protest, It is said at the Hawaiian Legation, is whether the protest is against the annexation of Hawaii or is merely a protest reserving to Japan all her rights under the existing treaty with Hawaii. It is believed that it is the latter. This treaty, made in 1871, provides that natives or oitirens of one country shall have the uninterrupted right to enter into, reside and trade In the other country. Under international law the annexation ot Hawaii to the United States would abrogate this treaty Moreover, a new treaty between the United States and Japan, made some time ago, to become effective in 1899, provides that the United States may exclude Japanese. If Hawaii Is Annexed, the effect would be to permit the United States to exclude the Japanese from Hawaii. MINISTER TO SPAIN CHOSEN. General Stewart 1. Woodford Nominated by the President. The President nominated Stewart L. Woodford, of New York, to be Minister to Spain. Stewart Lyndon Woodford was born in Dew York City on September 3, 1835.

The Union Pacific Railroad officers are considering hi* Utah colonisation scheme. The shoe-shiners of Milwaukee, Wis., as the bootblacks designate themselves, have adopted resolutions asking the shoe dealers to discontinue the practioe of polishing without oharge the shoes ol their customers.The Southern Cotton Spinners' Association In session at Charlotte, V. C, entered Into a binding agreement to curtail the output of ootton yarn In the South by reducing the time of running to ten hours, beginning June 15. The manufacturers who were present represented 350.000 spindles. The association controls 400,000 spindles. Minnesota's Legislature passed four and killed twenty laws proposed by unionists.

We would have the deposits of all labor organizations - and union worklngmen. and we would gain a standing and influence In the community that we oould get in no other Way." THE NATIONAL GAME. Duffy, of Boston, l/i rapping the ball this year as he rapped It Jα IBM. Boston has sixteen men under contract, and six of them are pitchers. New York, Boston and Baltimore are the only teami that have not yet been shut out. Umpire Lynch says that most of the umpire's trouble* comes from the managers who sit on the bench. Latham, whose antics once kept the League in laughter, is now captain and first baseman of the Mansfleid (Ohio) team. Manager Selee, of Boston, received only 9800 from Washington for Tucker. A year ago the veteran could not be purchased at any price. , In two years the St. Louis team won four games from the Baltlmores. Three of the four victories were won on the Baltimore grounds. HoekalexU, the Indian, is certainly malting a wonderful debut. He has played great ball and also batted well for the Cleveland*. KeOarr has been released by the Cleveland*, and another good third baseman is out of a>job on account of not being able to bat up to the .800 mark. The Bostons are now very generally aooeptedaaatesm of pennant possibilities, and the more they develop that oharaoteristlo the harder they will be to defeat, for luolc always seems to follow suocese in baseball as well as In some other matters. Bays Anson: "The Baltlmores struck their top speed last season, and I never in my life heard of a luckier' team than this aKBreflation of Hanlon's. While I am not one of the luck or ohance-blow philosophers, still I must say that the Orioles have met with less hard luck, that Is, physical Injuries, than, any team that ever won the pennant." Over the grave of the father of base ball, Harry Wright,in West Laurel HlllCemetry, Philadelphia, was recently erected by the Harry Wright Memorial Association the life-slue bronze statue of him. The statue represents the veteran manager standing erect, in citizens' attire, homing In one hand a soft felt bat and in the other a pair of eyeglasses. Says the Cleveland World: "Another, thing which happens you have noted at ball games will, when brought to mind, make yon more ready to forgive the umpire. A oloae decision at first base will be hooted at by the left line bleacherites, WbUe those Ja the fleet base stand wUI not uplift a voloe. The first baser* aaw the play end knew the empire was right, but the others, at a different point of view, thought he wv wrong." CYCLING NOTES.
