Washington, June 10. By a vote ot 209 to 01 tlio house of representatives yesterday afternoon adopted the New lands resolution providing; for the an nexation of Hawaii. Tho debate, which has continued without Interruption since Saturday, has been ono of the most notable of this conKtess, the pro posed annexation being considered of crcat commercial and Btrateelc Im portance by Its advocates and being looked upon by Its opponents ns In volving a radical departure from tho long established policy of this country, nnd likely to be followed by tho In auguration of a pronounced policy of colonization, tho abandonment of tho Monroe doctrine and participation In International wrangles. More than half a hundred members participated In the debate. From a party standpoint tho result was awaited with tho keenest Interest. The Republicans presented practically a unanimous support to the resolu tions, but three Republican members voting In opposition. In tho Demo cratic ranks tho division upon tho ques tion was more marked, IS Democrats voting for annexation. The vote In support of the resolutions was made up of 179 Republicans, 18 Democrats, 8 Populists and 4 fuslonlsts. The voto against annexation comprised 77 Dem ocrats? 3 Republicans, 7 Populists and 4 fuslonlsts. Yesterday's session began at 10 o'clock, and the debate continued seven hours. Few members were upon the floor until late In the afternoon, and the galleries had few occupants. Asthchour for voting drew near, however, mem bers began taking their places, and there were few more than a score of absentees when the first roll call was taken. The announcement of the voto upon the passage of the resolutions wus eheeieil upon tho floor and ap plauded generally by tho spectators. The resolutions adopted, in a pream ble, relate the offer of the Hawaiian re public to cede all of Its sovereignty and absolute title to the government and crown lands, and then by resolution ac cept the cession, and deelnre tho Isl ands unnexed. The resolutions provide for a commission of five, at least two of whom shall bo resident Hawallans, to recommend to congress such legislation as they may deem advisable. Tho pub He debt of Hawaii, not to exceed $4, 000,000, Is assumed, Chinese immigra tion Is prohibited, all treaties with other powers are declared null, and It is pro vided that until congress shall provide , for tho government of tho islands, all civil, Judicial and military powers now exorcised by the ofllcers of the existing government shall be exercised in such manner as the president shall direct, and he Is given power to appoint per sons to put In effect provisional gov ernment for tho Islands. Remarkable Rescue. Mrs. Michael Curtain. 1'lainficld, 111., makes the statement, that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was heated for a month by her family physician, but grew worse. I Ic told her she was a hopeless vic tim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her. Her diuggist suggested Dr. Kind's New Discovery for consumption ; she bought a bottle and to her delight found her self benefitted from first dose. She comtinued its use and after taking six bottles, found her self sound and well j now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was. Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at A.

Fifteen bodies were found scattered throsgh the brush, but the Americans were un able to oxamlne the spot where their firing had been most deadly. No time was lost lu burning the buildings and filling the well with earth and stones. Tho Dolphin landed wator and am munition, as an attack was expected on the return march, but none was made. Evidently the Spaniards were too thoroughly beaten to attempt fur ther fightlpg.

The Reports of That Nation's Intention to Interfere With Our Plans Are Pure Fabrications. Vm0ilngton, June IC A clear, posi tive and unequivocal denial is made at the stntc department of the accuracy of the London Star publication recltlns that the i'nltod States government had been notllled, either directly or indi rectly, of any purpose on the part of Germnny to Interfere with the opera tions of the United States naval and military forces in the Philippines. The Htories are said to be a repetition of those printed some time ago in Hiitish papers to the effect that the Herman consul at Manila hud threaten ed Admiral Dewey wltli the German Asiatic licet In case he refused to admit provisions Into Manila. The London publication 1b correct to the extent of snylng that Secretary Day has received certain definite notifica tions. Thece, however, are directly the reverse of the alleged notification speci fied In London. In brief, the German authorities have made It clear that none of the reports attributing to Ger many a purpose to make an Issue in the Philippines were warranted. It lias been pointed out that Germany, like all other nations, protects her citizens and Interests abroad. If these interests at Manila or elsi where ure Jeopardized by a critical condition of affairs then it is quite likely German ships will afford German subjects and property such adequate protection as la consistent with a btato of war. Hut this natural nnd necessary protection of German cltlzelis and German property, it Is pointed out oirlclully, Is quite different from a purpose of territorial acquisi tion or of forcible Intervention between the belligerents. As to the latter move It is declared with the greatest positive Hess tlint .Germany has never contem plated It, cltlui alone or In conjunc tion with other powers. It is authori tatively slnicd, .ilsn, that no move Is making at present in that direction, and that the it ports of such a move are puie fabrication. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.

A flirht In which 100 regulars from Fort Munioe and as many Maryland troops stationed at Old Point participated took plat e between 11 and 111 o'clock Tuesday nlnht at Phoebus, a suburban town a mile below this city. Several of the Mary land men were painfully Injured, but no one was dangerously hurt. The regulars assembled near a saloon shortly before 11 o'clock, and half an hour later were attacked by tho volun teers, who threw stones and other mis siles at the house. The regulars re plied by hurlinjr empty beer bottles through the windows. The attacking parly was finally driven off, but the lighting was renewed later, and a num ber of men were hit by stones and beer bottles. The police Were power less. A deloihment of volunteers finally uppeHn-il nnd put the bellig erents to lllirht. The trouble was the outcome of uncomplimentary remarks eoni-crnlnc the military training of the Minylund men. Sevonty-flvs men were sent to the guard house. It's a mistake to imagine that Itching piles can't bo cured ; a mistake to suffer a day longer than you can help.
