_r_~_a JAPAN AND HAWAII AGREE. The Critical Point in the Negotia- tions Passed. ‘ Washington, Oct. 26.-News has been received here that the differences be- tween Hawaii‘ and Japan, which threatened to involve the United States on account of the negotiation of the treaty for the annexation of the is- lands, have reached a point where a satisfactory settlement is in sight. The critical stage in the proceedings has passed and” the Honolulu and .Tokio Governments are now engaged in an amicable correspondence, free from the tinge of bitterness which characterized previous diplomatic notes. At one time there was every reason to fear that Japan would not agree to a settlement by arbitration, but she has disappointed those enemies of an- nexation who hoped that trouble would break out between the two countries by acquiescing in the proposition of Hawaii, said to have been made at the suggestion of this country, to submit the questions at issue to arbitration. L. M. Thurston, former Minister of Hawaii to the United States and one of the Commissiners sent to this coun- try to negotiate an annexation treaty, has returned to Washington from a iecturing tour. He says that Japan’s latest note to Hawaii on the subject of the differences between them was most conciliatory and cordial, and he ex- pec ted the matter to come to a head in a. short time. James B. Castle has been appointed Sceretary of the Hawaiian Legation in \‘.'ashington. WARNING TO CATHOLICS. Archbishop Cleury Forbids Them to Attend Non-Catholic Marriages. Ottawa, Oct. air—Archbishop Cleary has created a sensation by his procla- mation, in which he‘says: “We hereby declare, with all the au- thority of the Church vested in us as Archbishop of Kingston and your chief cast-or, that any Catholic in our metro- politan city or diocese who shall here- after presume to enter any non-Cat'h- Dli'c edifice to assist at what is termed 'a. marriage ceremony or service for the dead, even though he should not take any active part in the performance, renders himself guilty of mortal sin by di-sho-noring the religion of his bap- tism and defying the laws of the Holy Church and giving public scandal be- ‘ tore society. We furthermore reserve to ourselves alone the power to absolve from this heinous sin.” The occasion for this mandate was that of a recent marriage in a Con- gregational Church at which Catholics were witnesses. His Grace also rep- rimanded Catholics who attend a service for the dead in non-Catholic r:‘hurches, in view of the fact that the performance is known and proclaimed by its participants as of no service to the dead. :I Left a Fortune to Charity.
