Washington, Jan. 11 The presl

all correspondence muting1 to the
Hawaiian comolicatlont since his
message of December IS. The met
age transmitting' the correspondence
to as follows:
To the Congress X transmit here
with copies of all dispatches from our
minister to Hawaii, relating in any
way to political affairs in Hawaii,
except such as hare Veen heretofore
transmitted to congress. I also send
copies of instructions sent on January
12, 1894, being the only instructions
to him that hare not been sent to
congress
Jo my former message to congress
I witheld dispatches numbering three,
under date of November 10, 1893, and
also dispatch No. 70, under date of
October 8, 1893. Inasmuch as the con'
tenia or aispatcn xso. s are all re
ferred to in dispatches of more recent
date, and inasmuch as there seems to
be no longer reason for withholding
it, the same is herewith submitted.
Dispatch No. 70 is still withheld for
- reasons that seem to bo justifiable and
proper. , Gboveb Clkvklahd,
The last instructions to Minister
Willis referred to in the president's
letter of transmittal as the only la
, trucuons oot sent to congress are
dated yesterday.
They were sent under cover of a tel
egram to VV. A. Cooper, the dispatch
gent at San Francisco, instructing
mm to forward the following tele
gram to Mr. Willis, by the steamer
Mariposa to-morrow (to-day):
MiaiSTIB WILLIS' LAST MSTBUOTIOSa
' January 12, lsl To Willi. Minister. Hono
lulu: Your numbers, U to 18 Inclusive bow
that you have rightly comprehended the scops
of your instructions and hare, as far as was
a your power, utaensrged tb onerous task
eonUded In you. The president sincerely re-
(rets that the provisional government refuses
acquiesce lu the conclusion which his sense
of right and duty snd a due ward for our na
tional honor constrained hlra to reach and
submit as a measure of Justice to the people of
w unsuia asiauua sua muir aoposea lover
aire.
Walls It Is troe that the provisional govern
pons was createa to exist only until the
Islands were annexed to the United States and
that the queen finally but reluctantly sur
rendered to an armed force of this govern
nt Illegally quartered In Honolulu, and
representatives of the provisional government
whlob realized its Importance and, anxious to
(et tontrol of the queen's means of defense,
assured her that If she would surrender, her
ease would be subsequently considered by the
United States, the president has never elulmed
that suob sotlon constituted htm an arbitrator
la the technical sense or authorized him to
act in iaat capacity Between the provisional
government You made no such claim when
you acquainted that government with the
president's decision.
The solemn assurance given to the queen
baa not been referred to as authority for the
president to act as arbitrator, but as a fact
material to a lust determination of the presi
dent's duty in the premises.
In the note which the minister of foreign
affairs addressed to you on the Kid ultimo It Is
stated in effect that even if the
, constitutional government was subverted
7 tne aotlon of '. American minister
I'M.? !n-o by a military force of the
United States, the president s authority Is
limited to dealing with our own unfalth ul of
ficials, and that he can take no stops looking
to a correction of the wrong done The presi
dent entertains a different view of his respon
sibility and duty. The subversion of the
Hawaiian government by an abuse of the au
thority of the United States was in plain vio
lation of the international laws and required
the president to disavow and condemn the act
of our offendlnu officials and within the limits
of his constitutional power to endeavor to re
Store the lawful authority.
On the iHih ultimo the president sent a spec
ial message to congress communicating copies
ct Mr mount's reports and the Instructions
given to him and to you. On the same day.
answering a resolution of the house of repre
sentatives, he sent eoplos of all correspond
ence since March 4, m, on the political affairs
and rotations of Hawaii, withholding for suffi
cient reasons only Mr Stevens's No 7dof Ooto.

President Dole's reply to the United
States minister s demands la as fol
lows:
Mr. Dole to Mr. Willis:
Howomtld, Dee. tX lK Sir: Your Excel
lency's communication of December 18.
nounclnic the conclusion which the president
of the United Mate of America has finally
arrived at respecting the application of this
government for a treaty of practical union
with that country and referring also to the
domestic affairs of these islands, has bad the
consideration of the government.
While it Is with deep disappointment that
we learn tnai tna important pss position
which we have submitted to the government
01 tbe united Mate and wntcn was at nrt fa
vorably considered by It has at length been re
jected, we have experienced a souse) of relief
tbat we are now favored with the orst official
information on the subject thst bas been re
set ved through a period of over nine months
While we accept the decision of the presi
dent of tbe United htatcs, declining further
to consider tbe annexation proposition as the
nnal conclusion or tne present administration,
we do not foel Inclined to regard It as tbe last
ord of the American government upon this
subject, for tbe history of the mutual relation
rt the two eountrlt-s of American effort and
.iifliience In building up the Christian
civilization which bas so conspicuously aided
In vtvlnif this country an honorable place
among ina-penjeni nations, tne goovraphlcal
position or lueie Islands and tbe Important,
and. to both countries. piotlUblo reciprocal
commercUl Interests which nave long existed,
together with our weakness as a sovereign
nation, all point with convincing force
to practical union between the two
countries as necessary to gain tbe result
from tbe circumstance mentioned. This con
victlon Is emphasized by the favorable expres
sion or American statesmen over a long period
In favor of annexation, conspicuous among
whom are the names of W U. Marcy. William
H Seward. Hamilton Fish and James U.
Ulalne, all former secretaries of stite, and
especially sj by tbe action of your last
administration In neKOtiatlng s treaty of an
nexation with this government snd sending it
to tbe senate with a view of Its ratiUcation.
We shall, therefore, continue the project of
political union wun tne united Mates as
conspicuous feature of our forelxn policy, con
fldently hoping that sooner or later It will be
crowned with success to tbe lasting benefit of
coin countries
The additional portion of vour communica
tion referrinr to our domestio affairs with a
view to interfering therein is a new departure
in tbe relations of the two government.!. Your
information tbat the president of tbe United
mates expects this government to '-promptly
rellnaulsb authority" with the ouestlon: "Are
you willing to abide by the dee.sloa of the
presiientr- migm wen oeaismisseainssingie
word, out ro' tne circumstance that your com-
tnunlcatoln contains, as it appears to me, mis
statements, erroneous conclusion based there
on that are so perjudlclal to this government
tbat I eannot permit thorn to pass unchalleng
ed. Moreover tbe importance and menacing
cnxracier or tots proposition make it appro
priate tor me to discuss sumewnac iuiiv ins
question raised by It.
we ao not recognize tne ngni or tne presi
dent of tbe United States to interfere in our
domestic affairs. Such right could be con
ferred upon him by the act of this government
ana by tnai aione, or it couia be acquired by
conquest This. I understand to be the Amer
ican doctrine conspicuously announced from
lime to time by tne autuorities or your gov
ernment Resident Juckton said In hts mes-
to congress In 1H.K): "The uniform poller and
practice of tbe United States Is to avoid a 11
Interference in disputes which mostly relate
to tne internal government or other nations
And jtVAnlil'kllv In rftpftstilM thA Anlh.rtt w tt
the prevailing party without reference to tbe I
merits ot the original controversy." I
This principle ot International law hat been
consistently reconntzed durln t the whole past
intercourse o( tbe twa countries and was ro-
eestly reoonnrmed In tbe Instructions Klven
by Secretary Gresham to Commissioner
Hloimt on March 11. HKO. and by the latter
published In the newspapers In Honolulu In a
letter of bis own to the Hawaiian public The
words ot these instructions, which I refer to,
are as follows "1 he United States claim no
riwht to interfere In tbe politloal or domestio
affairs or In tbe Internal conflict of tbe
Hawaiian Islands other than as herein stated
(referring to tbe protection of American cltl
sens) or ror tnamrpose ot maintaining anr

Mr. Minister, does the president of the United
States bass bis right of interference? Your
communication is without information unon
this point, exceptlnc such as may be contained
in mo iouowin oriei ana vague sentences:
She (tbe ex Queen) was advised and assured
by her ministers and leaders of the movement
for the overthrow or ner government that if
she surrendered under protest, her case would
afterwards be fairly considered by the
president of the United - States. Tbe
queen nnany yielded to the armed forces
ot the united states, quartered In
Honolulu, relvlnf on the - (rood faith
and honor of the (resident when Informed
of what had occurred, to undo the action of the
minister ana reinstate her in tbe authority
wiuiin u oiaimeu as tna consiitutiouai SOV-
ereliin of Hawaiian islands " Al.o. "It ha.
comes my furtber duty to advise you, sir, the
xeoutlve ot the provisional government, and
your ministers of tbe president's determina
tion oi tne question wny our action and that
of the queen devolved upon him, and that you
m expected to prooipiy reiinquisn to ner con
stitutional authority.'1
I understand that the first quotation is re-
rorreu to in tne louowinir words or tbe second!
''Why our action and tbat of the oumn da.
volved upon hlra" (the president of the United
States), and that the president has arrived at
bis conclusions from Commissioner Blount's
report, we nave nad as yet no opportunity of
examining this document, but from extract.
published in the papers and for reasons set
forth hereafter, we are not dUposed to sub
mit the fate of Hawaii to lis state
ments and conclusions. As a matter of
laot no memner or tne executive of the pro
visional government has conferred with the
ex quoen, either veftally or otherwise from
the time the new government was proclaimed
tin now, wiin tne excoptlon or one or two
notices wmcn'wore sent to ber by myaolf In
regnra to uer removal from the palace, and
relatlni to the KUinln which the Kovernmont
first allowed her aus perhaps others ot a like
nature.

ex-queen on January 17, and whlob has been

ernment for arbitration.
IVesident Dole here quotes the ex
queen's letter, which bas been hereto
fore published. He then proceeds:
If any understanding had existed at that
time between ner and toe government to sub'
mit tbe question of bx-r resiorat-oo to the
United states, some reference to some suet
understanding would naturally have appeared
in this letter, as trood reason would have exist
ed tor caning tne attent.on of tbe president to
that fact, and especially ss she then knew that
her attorney would be seriously delayed in
reaenmg vvasningioa nut mere is not a word
from which such an understanding can be pre
dicated. The government sent its commis
sioners to Washington for tbe sole purpose of
securing toe connruiatioa or tne recognition
uy Minister Stevens or the new Koverrment
and to enter Into negotiations for political
union too ma unuea states.
Tbe protestor tbe ex queen made on Junu
ary 17 is equally with tbe letter devoid of
evidence of any mutual understanding for
Bubmlxajiin of ber claim to tne throne, to tbe
United stales it is very evidently a protest
skuiudi uio alleged action 01 Minister Stevens
as well as tbe new government and contains a
notice or ner appeal to the United States

Such an appeal could not huve been prevented
as uie man servi. e was in operation as usual.

out comment, should be a foundation for a
claim mat we bavesui m tied our rlvrht to ex-
1st as svovcniment to the United States bad
never occurred lu us until suggested to us by
uur government.
The protest of the ex-queen, already
puDiihiicu, is Here quoted, and Mr.
Dole then proceeds:
You may not be aware, but such is the fact.
that at no time until the nresentatlon of the
claim of tbe president of the United States of
his rivht to interfere In the Internal affairs of
tins country, by you on December 10. bus this
government been officially Informed by the
United States government that any such
course was contemplated. And not until the
publication of Mr. Urcshams letter to tbe
president or tbe United States on the Ha
waiian question bad we any reliable Intimation
ot sucn a policy The adherents of the ex
queen have, Indeed, claimed frjtn time to time
tbat sutb was tbe case, but we have nevor
been able to attach serious Importance to

If your contention that President Cleveland
ociieves mat tbts government and the ex-
queen bave submitted tbelr respective claims
to i ne sovereignty or mis country to tne ad-
luaieni.onoi tne united states is correct.
then, may I ask. when and where has the nrel.
dent held this court of arbitration!1 This gov
ernment has had no notice of the sitting of such
a tribunal and no opportunity of presenting its
claims. If Mr. Blount's Investigations were
part or trie proceeaing or such a court, this
government Qia not Know it and was never In
formed of It: Indeed, as I have mentioned
shove, nevor knew until the publication of

tins by the way of argument, tbat tbe right of
arbitration exists, may not be disposed of
upon an exparte and secret investigation with
out the knowled.eof such government or an
opportunity to be heard or even to know who
tbe witnesses were
My position Is briefly this: If thn American
forces Illegally assisted tbe revolutionists ia
tbe establishment of the provisional covorn
ment. that sovernment is not resnonaihla for
their wrong doing It wag purely a private
matter for discipline between the United
States government and its officers Thore is,
I submit, no precedent in inter
national law for the theory that
such aotlon of the American troops
has connferred upon the United States
authority over the International affairs of this
government Should It be true as yon have
suggested, that tbe American government
made itself responsible to the queen who. it is
auegea, tost nor inrone thrown such action,
tbat is not a mutter for me to discuss, except
to submit that if such be the easo.it is a
matter for the American government and
her to settle between themselves. This
sovernment, a recognized sovereign power,
equal in authority with the United
states government and enjoying diplomatic
relations with it, cannot be destroyed by it for
the sake of discharging its oblixations to the
ex-queen Upon these grounds. Mr. Minister,
