WASHINGTON nUHBAU OF Tlin DCE.

WASHINGTON , Scjit. 5.
Assistant Adjutant Ocneral Vincent , who
Is acting adjutant general In the absence of
General Hugglcs , today called the- attention
or The lire correspondent to the fact that
ncveral uf the Mow York dallies are pub-
llaliliiK * revival of tlio rumor that the De
partment of the 1'latte Is to bo abolished.
General Vincent says that the rumor Is ab
solutely without foundation , and that Ilia
\Vor department does not contemplate and
lias not contemplated the abolition of this
department , and will take no such action.
A Washington special to the New York
Tribune sayst "Tho question ns to whether
a Department of the South Is to be estab
lished Is one which cxcltca much Interest
In arm/ circles , As announced In these
dispatches some time ago , nn earnest effort
la being made by southern members of can-
cress to have the new department organized.
So far neither the president nor Secretary
I.amont has Intimated what action In the
matter will ba taken. Secretary Lamnnt ,
In replying to Inquiries on tlio subject ) has
spoken most guardedly. Ho hag. ti < ltultted
that the nuusllon has been considered , but
ho has nothing to say when asked what the
decision will be. Many well Informed army
odlcers , who arc watching the subject with
Interest , arc of the opinion that the Depart
ment of thn South will be established In
the near future , probably In No
vember , tipon the retirement of Gen
eral IJov..ird and the assignment of
a new commandcr to the Department ill the
Kast. These officers say that , considering
the military conditions and requirements , the
proposed step should be taken , nn.l that tlio
request from the south , urged U3 it Is by
Senator Gordon , Speaker Crisp and others ,
la likely to be granted. Tliero Is much
speculation as to which of the present mili
tary departments would bo abolished In case
the new one should bo organized. There has
linen talk of merging the Department of the
1'latte Into that of Colorado or Dakota , and
a delegation of prominent men fiom Omaha
visited Warhlngton a few days ago and
strongly protested against an order to that
effect being Issued. Senator Manderson has
also opposed the Idea , and It is nmv said
at the War department that the 1'Utte Is
not to 1)0 disturbed. The latest rumor has
It that the Department of the Columbia , com
manded by General Otis , will be abandoned
ami Its garrisons transferred to the Depart
ment ol California. Army ofHccrs who have
spoken of the subject aay that this Is the
most advisable change to make nml one
which the president and Secretary Lament
will probably order when the Department
of the South Is organized. A report la In
circulation today that General Otis has been
ordered to Washington as a preliminary
step to being assigned to the new department
with headquarters at Atlanta. "
SWEET ON IRRIGATION.
Apropos of the Denver Irrigation congress.
Representative Sweet of Idaho , who , as a
member of the irrigation committee , has
been In charge of the Irrigation legislation
during the last session of congress , lias this
to say :
"I , of course , have no notion of what maybe
bo done , or what the convention expects to
do , The house committee having charge of
the matter reported a bill during the late
session looking to such surveys In the arid
lands as will enable congress to make appro
priations for the reclamation ol thsso lands.
It Is a. national question , and the nation
. ahould , protect the settler until the latter Is
settled on his land and Is the owner of his
water right. The proposed plan of turning
the land over to the states Is Impracticable ,
and Is the beginning of a system of landlord-
Ism that I hope never to see In America.
The government can reclaim these lands with
money borrowed at 3 per cent. The expense
to the state when the state' can obtain It at
all would be double that rate , and as the
cost ot the reclamation would doubtless be
Included In the price at which land Is sold to
the settler , the dtuy ot the nation becomes
obvious. It Is said congress will not ap
propriate the money , I am Ratisfled con
gress will make this appropriation ,
beginning cautiously ; and further ,
from actual Investigation. I am
satisfied that there would bo more oppo
sition developed to a transfer of the lands
than to the Irrigation appropriations. The
cast Is beginning to realize that It cannot
k nllow the system of Jobbery that would In
evitably follow a universal transfer of lands
r to take place , and It also realizes that the
work of development must bo commenced.
Two Interstate questions are Involved , such
ii ns tlio storage In Colorado and Wyoming for
Kansas and Nebraska. Such questions the
national government alone could dispose of.
The convention may bo of great service If
it reports the real wishes of the farmers of
the arid regions and the best Interests ol
all the people. "

WASHINGTON. Sept. C , The supreme
lodge , Knights of 1'ythlas , devoted its mornIng -
Ing tension today to discussing the proposed
new statutes ami adoption of a new system ot
transfer of membership. Under former
rules a member taking a card of withdrawal
from & lodge ceased to be a member of
the order and was obliged to apply lor ad
mission to another lodge on the same ternu
as one who had never been Initiated.
The new rules provide that by paying
dues for ninety days a knight may retain ,
his membership In his old lodge , unless
admitted to another within that time.
Tlio committee to which was referred
the queRtlnn of the course tu be taken to
ward the disloyal past supreme chancellors
Is ready to report , but declines to mike
known the nature of Its recommendations
until the report has been submitted to the
suproint" lodge. Three pa st supreme chan-
rcllor.1 took part In the Indianapolis meet
ing of the German contingent , when It was
dccldrd to defy the mandate of the supreme
lodge forbidding the printing of the ritual
In foreign languages. Kor this action
Supreme Chancellor Illackwell argued In his
annual report that they should be expelled
from the order.
The reports ot the committees favoring
the exclusion of liquor dealers from future
membership In the order and the restraint
of the Herman lodges from performing the
ritual In their language are ready for
presentation , but will probably not be con
sidered until late In the session. H la un
derstood that the report upon several past su
preme chancellors recommend that a. com
mittee be appointed to Investigate the cir
cumstances of the Indianapolis meeting ,
and If I hi- action of that meeting Is found
to constitute disloyalty the past supreme
chancellors who tool ; part be disbarred from
participation in the proceedings of tlie su
preme lodge.

HONOLULU , Aug. 28. Minister Wlllla
called on President Dole yesterday and pre
sented him with a Cleveland letter of rec
ognition of the republic. The cabinet , as
well as Minister Tlmrstcm , was present. Min
ister Willis paid :
Mr. President : The rlglit of the people of
the Hawaiian Islands to establish their own
form of government lias been formally
acknowledged by both the executive and
legislative departments of the United
States. It seemed proper to me so far as
Us diplomatic neent had the right , to ex
tend recognition to the republic of Hawaii ,
It having been created under the forms of
luws and existing without effective oppo
sition. The action thus taken has , I am
glad to Htntp , been fully approved by the
proper authorities at Washington. As the
highest evidence of the fact , I have re
ceived an autoKiupli letter from the presi
dent of the United Slates addressed to you
as the president of this republic. In deliv
ering this letter , as Instructed , permit me to
Join In friendly sentiments and to express
the hope that , through the government now
Inaugurated , peace , prowperlty and happi
ness will be secured to all the people of
thesa Islands.
He then presented the following letter
from Mr. Cleveland :
Grover Cleveland , president of the United
States to his excellency , Sanford U. Dole ,
president of the lepublle of Hawaii : Great
and good friend : I have received your let
ter ot the 7th ultimo , by which you an
nounce the establishment nnd proclamation
of the republic of Havill on the -Un day
of July , 189) ) , nnd your an > umi > tlon of the
olllce. of president with the. . formalities pre
scribed by the constitution thereof.
I cordially reciprocate the sentiments
you express for the continuance of friendly
relations which have exited between the
United States nnd the Hawaiian Islands ,
and to assure you of my best wishes for
your own personal prosperity.
Written at Washington the 5th day of
August , IS91. Your good friend ,
GllOV'IOlt CUIVKLAND ,
By the President : W. Q. CiltRSUAAf ,
Secretary of Slate.
In reply Mr. Dole said : "Mr. Minister : It
Is with sincere gratification that I have re
ceived the assurance that tlir president of the
United States has confirmed the recognition
so promptly extended by your excellency to
the republic of Hawaii. Permit me , on be
half of the Hawaiian people , to reciprocate
the friendly sentiments expressed by yon
toward this government and assure you of
our desire that relations of comity and com
mercial Intercourse which shall be mutual
and advantageous may ever exist between
the two countries. "
The confirmation of the reported recognition
has taken the wind out ot the royalists and
the most rabid of them acknowledge the
cause of the e-x-queen U now dead. One
prominent royalist who expressed the views
of many said to the * Associated press corre
spondent last evening : "The recognition Is
complete , we must acknowledge that fact ,
Hut If the royalist commission , consisting
of Parker. Widemann and Cummins , liail
never gone to Washington the republic would
never have been recognized. They have
ruined tlio queen's cause as thoroughly aa If
they had taken a request from the queen lor
annexation. "
Slight trouble eeema to be brewing in
the government camp In splto of the recogni
tion news. The Scliutzen club , an organiza
tion originally formed by German supporters
of the provisional government , but which has
slnco grown to a large size and taken In all
nationalities , has sent a set of resolutions to
the government announcing that If some of
their members are not given government
positions at once the clun as a body will
withdraw Us support from the powers that
be. No answer has been sent yet and the
matter will come up In the councils Thursday ,
The first election under thi > republic will be
held during the last week In October , when
lenatori and representatives will bo elected.
