Quiet on Hawaii Annexation Sparks Debate in Washington

Washington reports Hawaii's annexation issue cooling as many Democrats oppose the step. The piece recounts population figures from 1890, notes Hawaii's commercial importance, and describes the dethroned monarchy, government structure, education, and religious groups on the islands.

Plan for a protectorate over Hawaii outlined in Senate debate

A treaty of annexation faces two thirds Senate vote, unlikely from Democrats, as President Harrison reportedly shifts to an agreement establishing a protectorate over Hawaii once commissioners arrive. The move would require Senate ratification and signals a shift from isolationism to active U S influence, with Platt urging control of the Sandwich Islands and Nicaragua canal amid global powers.
