Visit of King Leopold and Canada annexation proposals
King Leopold of Belgium will visit the United States this spring. Representative de Armand introduced a resolution in congress working toward the annexation of Canada to the United States. The naval committee proposed six more battleships of the Oregon and Brooklyn type. Russia opposes the expected Hai-kan revolution and will not aid revolting states. Statehood riders of agricultural and post office appropriation bills were withdrawn in the senate and passed. About sixty thousand Polish Catholics in the United States seceded and join the Episcopal church. A February 13 hurricane struck the Samoan group and Tuvalu, causing significant damage. River steamers Quest City and City of Louisville race up the Mississippi from New Orleans to beat a record.
