WASINGTON , Jan. 4.-Tho Hawaiian
qleslon was again brought before the public
In the senate by the discussIon ot the resolution
introduced by Mr. Lodge or Massachusetts
calling on the secretary ot the navy for In-
forin ' lon O to why the United States battleships -
ships had btn withdrawn from hawaIian
wnters. The debate , which was' interesting
throughout , consumed the greater part at the
mornIng hour , and at Its close lie resolution
took Its place on lie calendar and now can be
taken UII only by unanimous consent. The
debate was listened to attentively by senators -
ntors and the visitors. Mr. Morgan con-
.Iuted his speech on the Nicaragua canal
bil , after which the bill snaking al1proprl-
atons for the support or the military acad-
lie fiscal ' 1896 was passed It
emy for the year I
carries nn appropriation oC $420,000 , a retuc-
ton of $41,860 as passed by the house. The
senate then , after a bret executive session ,
adjourned until Monday . I
adjourne unt Montay.
After the journal had been approved and' '
the routine morning business transactet , Mr.
Lodge , republican of Massachusetts . addressed
the ( senate upon his resolution of Inquiry
as to why the Unled States warship had
been withdrawn from Ilonolulu.
Mr. Lodge said : "At the beginning of the
session I introduced a resolutIon nsltng for
the reports nHl correspondence or Admiral
Walker In regard lo hawaii . My motive
In so doing was because I believed the
opinIons and observations or a distinguished
and able naval onler , who Is necessarily
outside or all p01lcs , would bo oC great
value to us 1 unterstandlng the condition
of affairs there and In reachIng l proper
knowledge of our relatons with these Is-
lands. AdmIral \Vaiker's plpers were , as I
anticipated , most valuable on these points.
They showed lint to a disinterested person ,
directed by no patriotic motive , I was per-
( ccty clear that our l'olcy ' was the annexn-
ton or those Islants , They confirmed la this
way thev ( lels expressed by the senate In a
resolution of last summer and which I believe
are the views : held hy substantially all the
AmerIcan Ileople except those concerned In
lie Present atmlnlstraton , All this was
valuable Information , but AdmIral 'ulkor's
last letter brought out strongly n pretty Important -
portant point which had thus far not been
appreciated. I was known to lS through the
press that all our warships had been withdrawn -
drawn front hawaIi and that , although
several were lying idle at Mare Island , none
hat been sent back to Honolulu. The letter
or Admiral Waler. to which I have referred ,
discloses . lit a strikIng way the danger and
Imp01cy or this course and also proves that
our government had been warnc In regard
to It hy nn officer entitled to speak on such
a point with the authority or nn expert
AdmIral Walker says , with great frankness -
ness , that If the Drltsh men-of-war ns well
ns ciii' awn hnll hppn witttlrziwn I ntiitt
have - been a good - thing-certainly l it would ; :
have tone no harm to the stability of gv-
rnment In the Islants , "
BRITISH ENCOURAGED TIE ROYALISTS.
10 then referred to the manner In which
Engand reached out to Increase her pos-
sessions ; and asserted that the British ship
encouraged the hawaiian royalists , while the
absenc of the ( American vessel gave encouragement -
couraement to a counter-revolution. lo
also referred to the act lint Japan had a
warship nl Hawaii. He said the Importance
ot Hawaii to the United States could nol be
Overestimated , _ and } vould become ; greater
upon the completion Of the Nicaraguan canal.
lie contInued : "Under such circumstances , to
leave these Islands without thin confidence
and protection ot nn AmerIcan ship of war
and leave our Interests In Pearl harbor and
the Interests "f our citizens ungardM , ap-
pear to me to bo wrong In the highest de-
gree. What motive actuates the admlnlstra-
tQn In this extraordinary policy It Is Im-
pdsslbli to say. I I Is their desire to throw
the SandwIch Islands Into the hands oC Great
Britain , as hey have openly proposed to do
with Samoa , their acton Is comprehensIble ,
but nothing else explains I Such n policy
Is so unpatriotic , however , that It Is tlfcul
to conceive that I should bo enterlnlnet ,
It seems 10 inc' that In view or the vast Importance -
portance of the Sandwich islands to this
great country , that a great wrong has been
commItted In withdrawing our ships nt this
moment and hat a man-Or-wnr should be
sent there at once. I Is for this reason ;
that I have Introduced thIs resolution of inquiry -
fulry and I think our government owes It to
the people to send a man-ot-war to Honolulu
Without delay . I they do not do this they
wi have no rIght to remain silent ns to
theIr reasons for such an. extraordinary
course. " .
At the conclusion or Mr. 'Lodge's remarks
Mr. Butler , democrat of South Carolina ,
moved the reference or the resolution to the
commltce on foreIgn relntons , Mr Lodge
was disposed to combat thIs reference , insisting - !
Ing that It should more properly go to the I
commite on naval nUalrs. :
_ The mater was dIscussed by Messrs Dut-
ler , Gray Lodge and lhers ,
Mr. Aldrich suggeste that the resolution
bo modlned so as to requpet the information
on the subject tram the president. . ThIs met
wIth the views of Mr. Sherman , who said the
question was purely a diplomatic ono. , There
was , no reason why It should not pass. The
people , of lie United States were entitled to
'the ' information desired.
Mr. Morgan , democrat of Alabama declared -
elated himself In favor ot annexation and n
geed friend to the people of HawaI At the
2/mO lmo tile resolutIon should . go to the
committee on foreign relations. lie believed
the new republic ot Hawaii should have nn
opportunity to show to the world that It dId
not need a crutch , to help It nlong.
Mr. Hawley , republican of Connecticut , referred -
ferred to what he termed "Ihe living con-
spiracy" In the Islunds Inll to the advIsa-
biiy ot tIm people 10 know what Iho ( policy
of ( tie United States was to be If 1 revolution
broke out. 'fhe Inquiry was one list might
properly be made.
lAD NO FEAI1 OF FNGLAND
' Mr. Butler , democrat of South Carolina , ex-
pressed great repect for Admiral Walker ,
hut said that officer had sImply given his
opInion of what Great Britain would do In
the event of certain contingencies , Air .
huller said ho had nol the slightest appre
hensIon on the subject of Great Britain's
Interference. He insisted upon the reference
of the resolution to the commitee on foreign
relations , and hoped that committee would
inquire into the wisdom , propriety and ad-
vlmblly ot Its usage by ( lie senate.
Air Hale , republican of MaIne , urged the
,1toPton 01 the resolution , . '
Mr. Gray , democrat or Delaware , spko of
the 'seaiidul" anti "shame" 10 the Americn
lieple that had ben brought about by the
late interference In lawnlan affairs , and Bald
he bopell hat lie ( country would not again
be smirched by It , and In answer to the sen-
titer Cram Massachusetts ( Lodge ) be would
say that n large body of public opinion shared
the views he eXl1ressell.
AIr Aldrich also tool pert In the discussion
at ( lila poInt and asked Mr. Gray concerning
the stationing of a ship In hawaiian water
hy this gO\ernment. which led the later to i
remarlt ( lint very unfortunately there was
a vessel called Ihi ( Boston stationed there

to say a commIssion ot hawaiian royalists

rather a singular circumstance that they

The tact that the Ships hall been wlHlrawn
constituted A sufclent reason why the Inquiry
should be madE Ito did nol thlnlt any great
Public Interest would be Inperled by an answer -
lweI to the resolution. Mr , Aldrich could
not undertand why this continued jugglery
on the Hawaiian question was kept UII by

declared the object of tbe resolution was to

ISLANDS ARE ESSENTIAL.
Mr. Teller of Colorado sid he admitted
there hind been SOle haste on the part ot the
outgoing nllmlnlstrnlon In atemptng to
bring these islands under our fag , but he asserted -
serted ( lint nn examination of the publc ul-
terances , Irrespective or ) art ) . , weuld show
thlt the great boy of the American people
sympathized with lie effort to bring the
islands Into closer relations with this country.
They were essential to thl safety of our com-
merco. . I we should build the Nicaragua
canal did anybody suppose we would hike
these Islands to pass Into foreign hands ?
These people are peculiarly unltr our pro-
tecton ant arc threntenel ( ) by our great ccm-
merclal amitagonlet . Great Drltaln. lIe
charged Il had been the purpose of lie nll-
mlnlstralon to restore Lilitiokalani . and said
special ngencles had ben put to work for
that purpose .
Mr. Butler said there was no evidence the I ,
Ilminstrnton had In view the restoration at

Mr. Teller , however , contended the Inslruc-
tons or Commissioner Blount to restore the
status lWcoul not be otherwise construed
anll said : "Tho charge Is nol a new onc. 1
has been repeated ( into and time ngaln. "
"No significance attaches to the making of
a charge , " ropollell Senator Butler . "It Is
all In malntnlnlng It. "
Mr , Colt or I.'lorlta opposed the reference
of lie resolution , Atoners Teller . Gray , Butler -
ler ali Lodge conlnued the lebate until 2
o'clock , when Senator Morgan took the floor '
to' continue his speech on the Nicaragua
canal bill . the HawaIan resolution going to
the calendar.
Mr. Morgan read nt some length Cram a to-
port mate by Major Button or the army to
show that the construction or the canal was
entrely practicable and presented extracts

publics to show thal the climate or Nlear-

The debate on the currency bill was then
resumed and Mr. Hendrix , democrat bf New

ton that confronted the treasury and the

upon us without ample warning A finance

Hendrix nsked. . I not what was , I going
to do In orde to avoid the financial bad
lands ? Were the people of tint United
States to lwep on transgressing every law . or
finance , defying the world and ' continue -
tnuo to do what every other nation
had 'Cnled ' to do ? To illustrate
the result ot the present system , Mr. lien-
drlx pointed to the large acc "elomi or gold
made by the Dank of France nnd' UIO Dank
of Englall at our expense. The former
yesterday held 2,900,000,000 gold francs , the
later 33,000,000 In gold The thipltaiand l
the goml bullion or the world was resting II
these great pools waIting to see what thIs

was , Mr. Hellrix salt , nn ImJ0rtant prob-
lem In the commercial world as well as a : ,
p01Ic. ' ono. '
Mr. Iendrlx described at length the pro

speculators for shipment abroad , and then
proceeted to contrast this with the Ilu"aton
In France , where the Panic or France refused
to pay , except where actually necessary , lore

In view of the fact that the sheriffs of

also recommended the assembly "to provide
