The balls lined on his soeom shot , but a well conceived kiss saved him ! ftood position. Ho stopped at flvo on a him nmso and loft Schaeffer an easy draw which ho massed , as ho also did on the second end Inning. Ivcs got a good opening in consequence and In his third Inning collected the balls m the lower rail , where ho played shost drive : nnd easy billiards up to thirty-two. Schaoffoi led off with a well played sinclo cushion she ! ticrosi thu table , but missed an easy ono ai sixteen. Ivcs was not yet on edge am was playing his shots badly. Ho mad ( flixhtecn In his fourth Innlnz before ho gel things spread into Impossible shape. SchaofTor now took holn llko a billiard player and In iiino shots had the anchor In the upper right Hand rail. Then ho changcc them to the end , then back to the side again where ho missed a short cushion stropc , stopping at thirty. Ivos got the bunoilt of u perfect leave , but on his llfih waa compelled to resort to screaming out li : massn which saved the position and won n round of applause , Hut ho let KO soon ami a ! sixteen found a long three-cushion too mueli for him. .Sohaoffor had an cas.v.posltion draw but missed It llko an amateur. Ivcs made but poor use of the opportunity and had the balls out of control at once , missing n hard spread at ton. Schaeffer tried for three cushions around the table and failed miserably , besides leaving a sot up. IVGJ niado twenty-eight and in turn gave yohaeffcr bcnollt. Vital ( iiiixl IMlllnrilfi. In his seventh Inning the wizard started 'with ' a few skyrockets and at twenty had the anchor on the head rail. Here he danced the balls across and back very pret tily , until at fifty ho quit the head rail and set the crowd wllu-wtth some delightful balk line nursing along tha left rail. Ilia touch in this run waa perfect and ins stroke right to a feather's weight. It was not until eighty-four that ue quit the rail and resorted to open play , at last stopping at eighty-nine on a long cross-table ) cushion shot. The halls wcro left well bunched for Ivcs al the lower rail , but he separated thorn promptly and did not get them bauk until his twenty-llfth shot. At forty-live ho had n perfect position at the heafl rail , but lost it on his very llrst short drive and had to skirmish again. At slxl.v-ono ho found a thica-cushion shot lee hard and quit. Sehacll'er for his eighth inning had to work k hard for nls run of twoniy-four , which ended with the mis * of a very hard long range spread. Ives drew a blank from a safe leave and left them so hard that SohaefTer could do nothing. Ivcs could do no better than ten In the tenth , whereas Sehaeffer's hairbreadth miss of a delicate single cushion shot retired him at four. The leave was all Ivoa conltl iibk , but they slipped away to the middle of the table through bad force and tic twenty-throe ho foil on a long , hard draw. Now Schaeffer lind only to make a difficult wasso , which ho did perfectly to got things going right In his eleventh. His stroke was alt straight ag.i'n ' and lie showed a more clogsnt balk line play. It was not until seventy-three that he drove a ball up and down the table. He stopped at eighty-six on' a long live-cushion shot , being kissed out of u count at the lust Instant. Not All K.xnrllent linn. Beginning his twelfth with a fair open ing , Ivcs soon coaxed the balls into good be havior at the lower end rail. Ho easily got the anchor und held it for eight shots , leav ing at forty. At llfty-llvo they wuro In the Kamo anchor place again , but only for two shots- His stroke was now good for tlio first time , and he was making very effective use of the short sldo rail and corner drives. Ho had reached seventy-four before rcsorl- 11 g to'a long drive. At 100 the balls wore still on the lower rail , and as Ivcs passed the century mark the anplauso was goner- ons. His play was now perfectionItself. . and almost ovory.shot was applauded. At 143 ho lost the lower rail , but at 1W had It back again as good as over. Ten shots later he changed ovci-to the sldo rail and nursed an the fourteen-inch line for a dozen shots. Then at 175 had thorn back on the end. Kvur.vthing was going his way , but there was apparently no limit to his capacity to make billiards. For a Hum ho wont into the open table and was there r.t00 , but at 20:1 : ho missed a side draw by no 11101:113 dilll- cult , and quit amid the ilulightud plaudits of the spectators.

Ivos was still at concert pitch and opened out his thirteenth Inr.ing with a strong array of high-ehm billiards , nursing skillfully uoar the lower rail , hut generally on wlilu linos. After making Bcvrmty-livo ho missed , tii'oro : Ivcs. 481 ; Kcharffer , US I.

Ivcs , fiTii ; SrhaotVor , SIS. Thu latter half of thu sovuut cnth gave Kchacffcr but thirteen , a single cushion draw proving his downfali. There was safety play on both uldei , for thu eighteenth inning , but Ivcs cut loose In the nineteenth with an almost hopeless iwh-o across aliot , which ho missed and left a tlno setup , but Jake ajraln stopped at thy unlucky number , this tlmii leaving the balls togut'icr. Ives got infill lined lorthwlth , but counted by a wonderful thin one. Aiialn at sovcn thuy lined jp In the middle of the table , and this time they wore safe indeed. Duly it UUnril Can Uo It. Ity far the pluckiest and best shot of the game was made on the fourteenth count by Schaeffer In thu ninotcunth Inning. Ho rtt-Mit bin own hall around four cushions with heavy rnverso twist and in counting ob tained excellent position. Tlio game wan now at an luicnsely exulting stage , as SchantTcr passed to his last string , tno crowd hanging upon every shot with breathless interest and. at every geed atrokn bursting Into applause * . He was playinghuoa man whose lifo was at stakoatut making overfilling dead eight. At 100 the balls were badly spread , but ho wont after them In every com olvablo shape and made the in too. while the crowd yelled itself lionise.

Tlino Olioitcn by tlio Mnyor'H Knoiiilog t < filn Iinpeiiolimont rriicaoillncn. For thu past ton days there has boon r good deal of scurrylnn around and scheming among political wlro pullers and ( Us gruntlcd politicians to got up a move to Im peach the mayor under any pretext thai could bo trumped up. The manifest design sign of the plotters has been to ireteontro of the appointing machinery before the mayor's appointees arc conllrmed. Behind these plotters of course are certain contrac tors for public works and corporations whc want to run the city In their own Interest. At the outset the stories nlloat wore treated as a utaro's nest gotten up tc foiv.o the mayor Into niakla ? concessions to the cliques and rings that want to got at the public crib. It was of course well un- dorstooil that certain ambitious politicians who fought Ucmls secretly or openly In the last campaign were afr aiu that ho would bo in their way next fall when their turn cotnci. Old Not Unino to n llimil , I ate last ovenlug rumors were flying thick and fast In the neighborhood of the city hall and court house that the conspiracy to depose - pose liomls and grasp the reins of city government would comu to a head within a few hours. A lank ana lean individual , who resembled Callus in his make-up , stepped with a feline tread Into the olllfo of the clerk of the court and in a whisper Inquired ho\7 long the oftleo would DO open during the night , Inasmuch as parties whom ho represented wanted to fllo complaints against the mayor that would bo in the nature of impeachment preliminaries. Itut no papers were Jllcd. "jtiituto on Kqmoval of Mayor. The procedure rolatinz to the removal of city oDlcors Is embodied in section 17:3 : of the charter , which reads as follows : The power to remove from his ofllco the mayor or any councilman or other ofllcer mentioned in this act , in any city of the metropolitan class , for good and sufficient cause , Is hereby conferred upon the district court for the county in which such city is sit uated and whenever any two of the city councilmcn shall make and lllo with the cleric of saul court the proper charges and specifications against the mayor , alleging and showing that h is guilty of mal- rcasauco or misfeasance as such olllcer , or that ho is Incompotcnt or neglects any of his duties as mayor , or that for any other good and suflleient cause stated ho should be removed from hU oftlcc as mayor , or whenever the mayor shall make and lllo with the clerk of sala court the proper charges und spccillcations against any councilman or other ofllcer mentioned in this act , allowing and showing that ho Is guilty of malfeasance or misfoas.tiicu In such ofiico. > r that ho is Incompetent nr neglects any of its duties , or that for any other good and siillicicct causu stated ho should bo removed from his ofllco , the Judge of such court nay issue the proper writ requiring such ofllcor to appear before him op a day therein named , not moro than ten davs after the servlco of such writ , together with a copy of such charges and spcuillcntlons upon such pflleer , to show cause why ho should not be removed from his offlso.

Wo have had as y > ! t no opportunity of DJ ainlnlnir this document , but from extract published in the papers nnd for reason sot forth hereafter , wo are not ills posed to nubmlc the fate of Haxva ! to Its statements and conclusion * As n matter of fact no member of tha oxccu tlvo of the provisional govornmout has con fcrred with the Ux-quccn , either verbally o otherwise , from the time the now government mont w.is proclaimed until now. with th exception ot ono or two notice ? which wor sent to him by myself In regard to her removal moval from the palace nnd rotating to tin guards \vhich the government llrst nllowci her and yorlmps othurs of a llku nature. I infur that a conversation whtcl Mr. IXimon , a member of the nil visory council , Is reported by Mr Ulount to have had with the ex-queen oi January 17 , and which has boon quoted li the newspapers as the basis of this astound Ing claim of the president of the Unltct StiUcs as his authority to adjudicate upoi our right as a government to exist. Mi- Damon , on the occasion mentioned , was al towed to accompany thu cabinet of the former mor government who had boon In conference with us. What Mr. Damon said to the ex queen ho said on hj-t Individual authorltj nnd did not report it to us. What Wns "Hor CHBO ? " mount's report of his remarks on that oc caslon furnishes this government Its llrst In formation of the nature of those remarKs Admitting , for argument's sake , that the government had authorized such assurance what was "her case" that was afterwards to "bo fairly considered by the president 01 the United States ? " Was It tho'questlon ol her right to subvert the Hawaiian constltu tlog and to proclaim a now ono herself I Was It her claim to bo restored to the sovereignty or was it her claim against the United States for the alleged unwarrantable acts of Mtuisiei Stevens , or was it all those In the alterna tive' ' Whocansav ? But If It had bean all of those or any of thorn , it could not have been moro clearly and llnnlly decided by the president of the United States in favor ot I ho provisional government than when ho recoimi/cd it without qualification or re ceived Us , and accredited , successively , two envoys extraordinary and ministers pie- nipotentiary to it , the ox-quoon In the mean time being represented In Washington by her agent who has full access to the depart ment of state. The whole business of thu government with the president of the United States is sot forth in the correspondence be tween the two governments and the acts and statements of the minister of this gov ernment at Washington and the annexation commissioners accredited to it. If wo have submitted our right to exist to the United States the fact will appear in that eorrespomlenco and the acts 'of our ministers and commissioners , buch agree ment must bo shown as the foundation of the right of your government to intarloro , for an arbitrator can bo created only by the net of the two parties. Claim Ncivor Kccognlzod. The ox-queen sent her attorney to Wash ington to plead hot- claim for reinstatement for power , or , failing in that , for a money al- .ovvanco or damasre * . This attorney was . -efused passage on the Government dispatch ; > oat which was sent to San Francisco with the annexation commissioners and their mes sage. The departure of.tlus vessel was less than two days after the new government was declared , and the refusil was madopromptly upon roc.eiving the request thcrofor , on the day the government was dcclured or the text day. If an intention to submit the luestiou of reinstatement of the ox-qucon lad existed , why should nor attorney have Joon refused passage on this boat. . The ex- luecn's letter to Mr. Harrison , dated Jan uary 18 , two davs after the now government was proclaimed , makes no allusion to any understanding between her nnd the govern- neut for arbitration. President Dole hero quotas the ox-quoon's otter which has been hero to faro published. tlo then proceeds : If any understanding had existed at tha.t ; ime between her und the government to submit the question of her restoration to ; ho United States some reference to such understanding would naturally have ap- joarcd In this letter , as every reason would lave existed for calling the attention of the > resident to the fact , and especially as she ; hen know that her attorney would bo seri ously delayed In reaching Washington. AViit No ITiidernt But there is not a word from which such an understanding can bo predicted. The ( ovornmcnt scut its commissioners to Wash- nglon for the solo puruoso of securlnir thu confirmation of the recommendation bv Min ster Stuvens of the nowsrovernmenUind to enter into negotiations for political union with the United States. The protest of the ex-queou made on January 17 is , equally with the letter , devoid of evi dence of any mutual understanding for a submission of her claim to the throne to the United States. It is vorv evidently n irotost ugaiust the alleged action of Minis- .or Stevens as well as against the now gov- crntnu'ht , aud contains a notice of her appeal to the United States. The document was ecoived exactly as it would have come through the mail. The endorsement on the lapor was made on the paper at the request of the Individual who brought it. as evidence of the safe delivery. As to the ox-quean's appeal to the United States , it was a matter of indifference. Such an appeal could not have been prevented , as the mall service was in operation as usual. That such a notice and our receipt of it without comment should bo made a foundation of claim that wo have submitted our right to exist as a government to the United States hud never occurred to us until suggested to us by your government. ( /-luvnliiiil'i < Itlfflit to Arliltratu. The protest of the ox-quean already pub lished is here quoted and Mr. Djlo then proceeds : "You may not bo a ware , but such is the fact that at no time until tlie presentation of the claim of the president of the United States of his right to intorfuru In the internal affairs of this country by you m December 10 , has this government been Informed "by the United States government that any such course was contninplated , und not until the publication of Mr , Gresham's letter to the president of the United States jn thu Hawaiian question had wo any reliable information of such u courso. I'ha .opponents of such a course have indeed claimed from time to time that such was thu case , but wu have not been nblo to attach serious importance. to thesa rumors , fooling seouro in our present illploinatlo relations with your country and i-ol.vlng upon the friendship and fairness of a government whoso dealings with us have jvor shown full recognition of our independence as a sovereign power without my tendency to take advantacoot thodls- parity ot strength between the two coun tries. If your contention that President ulovoland believes that this government mil the ox-queen have submitted their i-cspectlvo claims to the sovereignty uf this country to the adjudication jf the UnltOil.btaies Is correct , then , may I isk , when ami where has thn provident hold Ibis court of arbitration ! This government lias had no notlcu of thu .sitting of cuch a tribunal and no opportunity of presenting ivldcncu of its claims. If Mr. lilount's .nvostlgatlon were part of thu proceedings > f such a court , this government did not tnow It and was never Informed of it. In- ieed , as I have mentioned above , we nevur enow , until the publication of Secretary 3rc-sham's letter to President ( Jluvolntid a Tow wcuks ago , that the American executive lad any sehcniu of Intortcruiicu under con- eniphitlon , lllnuiu' * .Method ) , Kvau If ho had known that Mr. Ulount tvas authoritatively acting as u coinmls- iloncr to take uvliiouco upon the question of the restoration of the ux-qucon the methods idopiod by him in making his Investigations ivore , I submit , unsuitable to suuli an oxaml- mtlon nr any examination upon which uinmii Interests were to bo adjudicated , \s I am reliably Informed he selected hU ivltnosscH and examined thorn in secret , fro- luontly using leading questions , giving no ipportuntty for a cnm-axumlnailon ami > fttm not permitting the nxplanations by ivitiiosso.i themselves , which thuy desire ; ! : o make of evidence which ho had drawn from them.

"My position br.lpdy U : If the America ) forces Illegally assisted the revolutionists litho the establishment of the provisional govern meat , that government Is not responsible fo their wrongdoing. It was purely a prlvati matter for discipline between the Unttoi States government and Its officers. Then is , I submit , no precedent in Intcrimtlona law for a theory that such action of tin American troops has conferred authority over the international affairs of thh government. Should It be true , as you hnvn suggested , that the American gov eminent made Itself responsible to tin queen , who. H Is tittuped , lost her throiu through such action , that Is not n matter foi mo to discuss , except to submit that if suol ; bo the case it li a matter for the Amerk-ar government and her representative to settk between themselves. This government , rcc' ognlzod as a sovereign power , equal Ir authority with the United States government mont , and enjoying diplomatic relations wltli It , can not bo destroyed by It for the sake ol discharging Its obligations to the ex-queen , Upon these grounds , Mr. Minister , in behalf of my government , I respectfully protest agulnst the usurpation of Its authority as suggested by the language of your com munication. "It Is difficult for astranger llico yourself , and much more for the president of the United States , with his pressing responstbllites , crowding caras. and his want of familiarity with the condition and history of this country and the inner lifo of its people , to obtain a clear Insight into the real state of a.ffau-3 and to understand the social currents , the race fooling and the customs and traditions , which all contribute to the political outlook. Wo , who have igrown up hero , or who have adopted this country as our home , are conscious of the difficulty of maintaining a stable government hero. llilVd Trluit to IIo I.liiv Abldlliir. "This community , which Is made up of flvo races , of which the larger part but dimly ap preciates the significance and vnluo of repre sentative institutions , offers political prob lems which may wull tax the wisdom of the most experienced statesmen. ' For long years largo and influential parts of this community , including many foreign ers and native Hawaiians , have observed with deep regret the retrogressive tenden cies of the Hawaiian monarchy , and have honorably striven against them , and have sought , through legislative work , the newspapers and by personal appeals anci Individual influence , to sup port and emphasize the roprcsentatlvo features of the monarchy and to create u public sentiment favorable thereto , and thereby to avert the catastrophe that seemed inevitable If such tondeucios were not restrained. These efforts have been met by the last two sovereigns In a spirit of aggressive hostility. Tlio struggle became nt length a well dollned Issue between royal prorosratlve nnd the right of representative government , and nfost bitterly and unscru pulously has it been carried on in the inter ests of the former. " ( President Dole here enters upon an ac count of the events , in Kalakaua's rolgn which led to the revolution and constitution of 1337. and deialls the actions of LUiuoka- lani in her efforts to override the constitu tion and vest herself with absolute power. These incidents are now well known to news paper readers. President Dole then proceeds - coeds with his argument as follows : ItVii4 Forced Upon Hor. "No man can correctly say that the queen owed her downfall to the interference of American forces. The revolution was car ried through by the representatives , now largely reinforced , , of the same public sentiment which forced , the monarchy to its knees in . 18.H7 , which suppressed the Insur rection of 1883 , " nh'd , * whiuti for twenty years has been laboring for representative government in this country. If the Amer ican forces had boon absent the revolution would have taucn plnco , forsuftlelout causes , for it ind nothing to do with their presence. T , therefore , in all friendship for the govern ment of the United States , which you repre sent , and desiring tochorish the good will of the great American people , submit the answers of my government to your proposi tion , and ask that you will transmit the sumo to the president of the United States for his consideration. "Though the provisional govornmen t Is far from being a great power and could not long resist the forces of the United States in a hostile attack'wo deem our position to bo Impregnable , . under legal precedents , under the principles of diplomatic inter course and in the form of conscience.

No ono was present at the ha f-hour Interview which follovyod. hor"chamberlain having been taken tp another room and Uun- aral Mills , who had , ' invited her to come , re maining In the front of'the house to prevent interruption. * "After a formal gr\btlng thoquuon was In formed the president of the United States had Important communications to maka to Her anil she was naked whether shu was willing to receive thorn-alone nnd In conll- Joncc , assuring her.lhis was foi her own in ternal and safety. Stito answered in thu iifilrmativo.

" "To this she made no reply. After waiting \ moment 1 continued : " 'Tho president not only tenders you his jympathy , but wishes to help you. Buforj lully making known to you his pui-poe.i , I lesfro to know whether you > ire willing to inswor certain questions which it is my luty to ask ! ' "Sha answered : 'I am willing. ' " "I thoii asked her ; 'Should you ba re- itoreit to the throne would you grant amnesty LO these persons who have been or who are low In Ihu provisional government , or who mvo boon Instrumental in the overthrow of , ho government ! ' "Sho hcsltuiod a moment and then slgwly indcalinlv ansfworod : 'There arc certain , iws of my goTemuiont by whl h I shall lUido.

' "Hor reply was : 'I have understood nn mean all ! have said , but I might leave th decision ot this to my ministers. ' "To this I replied : 'Suppose it is iiocos sary to make a decision bafore you a ) pointed nny ministers , nnd that you wer asked to issue n royal proclamation of get oral amnesty , would you do it ! ' "She answered : ! have no legal right t do that , and I would not do it. ' "Pausing a moment she continued : 'Thosi people wcro the cause of the revolution an the constitution of 1S37. There will neve bo any pcaco whllo they are hero. The , must DO sent away or punished and thct property confiscated. ' "I then said : 'I have no further dommunl cation to make to you noiv and will hav iiono until 1 hoar from my government witlcn will probably bo in three or fou woous.1 "Nothing was said for several minutes when I asked her whether she was wllliti ! to give mo the names of four of her mos trusted friends , as I tnlirht , within a day o two , consider It my duty to hold a consulta lion with them in her presence. She ns sented , nnd gave tho.so names : J. O. Oartcr John Kluhardson , Joseph Nawaihal aud 13 U. MacFarlan. Feared for Hur Safety. "I then inquired whether she had an ; fears of her safety at her present residence Washington Square. She replied she dii have some fears ; that , while she had trustj friends that guarded her house ovary night they were armed only with clubs , nnd thai men shabbily dressed had been often soot prowling about the adjoining promises , t school house with a large yard. "I Informed her I was authorized by the president to offer her protection , either or one of our warships or at the legation , and desired her to accept the offer at once. "Sho declined , saying she believed it was host for her at present to remain in her own residence. 1 then said to her that any mo ment , night or day , this offer was open tc her ncceptanco. ' The interview , thereupon , after some personal remarks , was brought to a close. "Upon reflection I concludpd not to hold any consultation at present with the queen's friends , na they have no ofllcial position and , furthermore , becatiso 1 feared , if known to so many , her declarations might become public , to her great detriment , If 'not danger , aud to the interruption of the plans of our government. l.lll'M Frtomli. "Mr. J , O. Carter is a brother of Mr. H. A. P. Carter , the former Hawaiian minister ID the United States , and is conceded to bo a man of high character , Integrity and intelli gence. Hu is about 55 yoara of age. He has had no public experience. "Mr. MacFarlan , like Mr. Carter , Is of white parentage. Is an unmarried man , about 42 years old , and is engaged in the commission business. John Ulchardson is a young man of about 33 years of ago. Ho is a cousin of Samuel Parker , the half-caste , who was a member of the qr.oen's cabinet at the time of the lust revolution , lie is a resident of Maul , being designated in the directory of ISS'.l as "attor ney at law , stock raiser and proprlotorof the bismarck Jivory stable. " Hichardsou is half-ens to. Is a llair-L'usto N'utlvo. Joseph Nawaahl is a full blooded native , practices law , as ho tola me , In the native courts and has a moderate English educa tion. IIo has served twenty years in the legislature , but displays very little knowl edge of the structure and philosophy of the government , which ho so long represented. Ho is 5L years old , and Is president of the native Hawaiian political club. Upon being asked to name three of the most prominent native loaders , he gave the namesjjf John I1' . Bush , H. W. Wilcox , aud modestly added , "I am a leader. " John F. Bush is a man of considerable ability , but his reputation Is very bad. U. W.Vilcox \ Is the notorious half breed , who engineered the revolution of 183'J. ' Of all those men Carter and MncFarlan are the only two to whom the ministerial bureaus could bo safely en trusted , In a conversation with Sam Parker aud also with Nawaahi , it Is plainly evident the queen's implied condemnation of the uonstitutlon-of 18ST was fully endorsed by them. From these and other facts which have been developed I am satisfied there will bo a concerted movement in the event of res toration for the overthrow of that constitu tion. which would mcin the overthrow of a constitrtional and limited government and the absolute dominion of the queeu. "The law referred to by the queen is simpler vi , section 3 , of the penal code as follows : Whoever shall commit trouson shall sutTer the puulshtnontof duathaudall his property > hall ba confiscated to the government. "Thero are , under this law , no degrees of treason. Plotting alone carries with It the leath scntonco. "I'noed hardly add In conclusion that the tension yf feeling is so great that the prompt est action is necessary to prevent disastrous 2onsequonees. "I send a cipher telegram , asking that Mr. Blouut's report bo withheld for the present , ind I send with it a telegram , not In cipher , is follows : 'Views of first party are so ex treme as to roxuiro further instructions.

" Mr. Wilson cross questioned him sharply as to whether ho was the author of the panor and as to who told him the queen waste to bo restored. Finally Mr. Willis said : "I do not Intend you should draw any Inference whatever from my having l.akon this paper. My Idea was that you had been In consulta tion with others. It seems strange that you should have written this without auy knowledge ot what the United States meant to do. That you may not misunderstand mo , I now return the papor. I did not know at the time what Its contents woro. I wished to Inquire from you In regard to Ihu author ship , etc. I would not have taken It had I known Its contents. " I.lll U'IIH Onicloiii. Undordato of December 18 nnd IS Minister Willis acknowledges the receipt ot instruc tions scut by the ( Jorwin and ssnds steno graphic reports of the two interviews had by him with the ex-queen ut her residence. J. O. Carter present. In ronly to queries the ox-quean siU the views she had expressed - pressed in a former interview refusing to grant amnesty to members of the provisional government had not bjen changed. Shu in sisted that thuy should leave the country and their property bo confiscated , but sal'd she was willing to rescind the opinion they should bo bohe.ided. In the second Interview J. O. Carter st-itod he had urged the ox-quoon to ace < 3pt the eon- ditions Imposed by President Cleveland. Ho had pointed out that the president of the United States was powerless to act without her co-operation. Mr. Carter continued : "Then I went on to remark that she feels unsettled and unsafe with these people In the country , an.1 I found , to repeat whit shosatu , although It may not bo in accord with my own viow.i , that she feels these people should leave the country in peace ard good government can prevail. She thinks any third attempt at revolution on thu part of these people would bo destructive to life and property ; that her people have stood about all they can of this interference with what they consider her rights. "I have gone into Iho matter of tlio consti tution witli her because I know our views are not s > o fully in accord as I wish they wcro. I have said to her majesty that I think she can safely put her naiuo Into the hands of the president of the United States , and said to him ; 'You dictate mv policy ana I will follow It. ' " Thnn turning to the ox-queen , Mr , Carter asked'Is : your majesty satisfied with the statement I have made ? Is it correct1 Smailed with tha I'rojiosltlon. She replied : "Yes. " ' Of the revolutionists , " "she added , "their property should be confiscated to the gov ernment and they should not be permitted to ruintiln in thu kingdom. " ' Minister Willis then informed her of the president's instructions that ho should cease nil interference In her bahalf if she refused - fused assent to the condition of absolute amnesty. He staled he understood , that you are of the opinion thai under the state of things which existed at the time of the revolution and also in 187 , there could bo no permanent peace in the islands. " On the same day the above interview nas held Minister Willis received the following letter in which was enclosed Lilioukalaili's pledge to grant amnesty which has been already published.

AinoriciinliiiiiVI11 Uo thu Tent. From all lhat can be learned this morning , It is quite evident that the aggrusslvo element ot the country Is the forefront of the present political movement , and that Americanism will bo hurcaftorusod as a test ot trustworthiness In public affairs. There is little doubt that the Present gov ernment is at last feeling the force of the popular demand for representation , which foreigner. } never had under thu monarchy , and whUh they could not secure under the restoration of missionary rule. This claim li now boldly set up by the foreigners retire * sonllng the mechanical and laboring elements of Hawaii , exclusive of planta tions , and their demand Is being backed by both popular appeals aud secret organiza tions. Thu latest of the lallor is ono com posed of Gorman residents , almost every member of whluh belongs to thu American eaguo. In an interview hold with Minister Thurs- ton ho states that his return to Hawaii waste to got In touch again with the people. Mr. Thurston claims to have secured the object of his visit , whllo many of his con stituents claim that ho is going away with a lle.i In liis ear as lo iho futuruof "tho Ameri can idea , " which , it Is proposed to substitute for the missionary Idea thai has formerly dominated here. Both factions , however , are united on the proposition thai there late to bo no restoration. boinu Opposition. Tn the advisory cotncil , however , some ) ppo9ition was shown. Heretofore , this jody has been self-electing and solf-per- lotuating. and quietly refused the demands nado by the radical clement. The radicals issort that the council has been conserva tive to ii degree that endangers the future ol popular government In Hawaii , and ox- > eot their present movement to bu : . - protest igainst the further encroachments of cor- lor.ttlon.H upon the popular government here. The position taken by the conservative ele ment mis served to nrouso Che rail teal party , * and it is not unlikely that unless the backers of Mr. Smith are placated serions political difference will arise butweon the present government anu the Americans who are thu support of thu present movement for closer commercial relations with the United States.
