WASIHNOTOX , Nov. 22. As said In n As
sociated press dispatch last night , the ofll-
cers of the State department fully believe
the queen has by this time been restored to
the Hawaiian throne. While they do not lix
nny precise tlmo as to when the reinstate
ment took place , they believe force was not
necessary. H seems , however , that while
actual force may not have been authorized ,
there was to be such a show of force as
would make -provisional government be
lieve the United States would use all the
power at Itscommand to bring about the res
toration. The statement was also made that
If Mr Dole refused to accede to the demands
of Minister \Vlllis ho should be thrust aside
and the queen restored , even if the adminis
tration would have to go to congress for
authority. At the same time It was claimed
that there would bo no necessity for any
such action , as the Information from the
islands was to the effect that everything
was working precisely as expected.
Coolltleiit HrMorutlmi Hat Itcvn KfTcctrd.
One reason for the l-elief in sonic quarters
that theiestora'.Ion had taken placoyestenlaj
or would take place about this time , was be
cause of the assertion often made tha
unless the restoration took place before tha
arrival of the first steamer from the United
Slates since the attitude of this administra
tion was mad-,1 public it would not be made
at all , because the sentiment of thu United
States and the report of Minister Thurston
to the nrovision.il covcrnincnt would have a
tendency to sustain them and cause them to
resist Minister Willis' effotts at restoration.
This phasoof the case was suggested to
the State department today and a reply re
ceived that it made no difference whether
Mr. Thurston had been able to communicate
with the provisional irovcrument or not , or
whether that government would offer auy
resistance , the restoration would co ou just
the same , it was claimed that not only .the
information furnished by Mr. Blouiit ,
but the reports received since
Minister Willis' arrival at Honolulu ,
were to the effect that the pro visional govern
ment was sustained on the supposition that
the United States man of-war was in the
harbor for that purpose , and that as soon as
it was known that the United States would
not sustain the provisional- government , but
was determined to undo what had been done
by the revolutionists , that the public would
Immediately compel the restoration of the
queen and the provisional government would
fall , and its members would hasten to take
advantage of the amnesty which Minister
Willis would insist that the queen should
grant upon being restored to power.
Additional NfW < i\e | < ; tcil Today.
The Alamcdu is expected to arrive tomor
row morning. At the department there is
not much expectation of any important news
being received by her , although such a thing
is barely possible. Vet it is the general be
lief that nothing transpired between the
tlmo the Australia sailed and the departure
of the Alanicda. It was not possible at the
time the Alameoa sailed for Informa
tion to reach the islands concern
ing what 'had happened in the United
States or that the intention of the adminis
tration to restore the queen had been de
termined uuon if Minister Willis had pur
sued iho same course since the departure of
the Australia that ho pursued up to that
time. The people of Hawaii , outside of a
very few , would not bo aware of his Inten
tion and ho would bo allowed to pursue Ins
plans without much Interruption ,
The basis of the belief that Ulluokalani
was restored yesterday Is supposed to be the
dispatch received by tlio Australia irom
Minister Willis. It Is said this reported
Minister Willis' contldent expectation that
there would to no Interruption to the
progress of carrying out his instructions and
all the preliminaries had been successfully
attended to , U Is asserted that the progress
reported by Minister Willis has been so satis
factory that it has not been considered
necessary to send him anything further
since ho received his original instructions.
OflU'Uils in the State department assart
the statement issued by Minister Thurston
this morning would furnish abundant
grounds forgiving him his passports if this
government felt inclined to bend them to
him. In tlio present state of the public
mind , however , It is thought this might
seem llko depriving n man of the right testate
state his sitio nf the case an * would prove
unpopular.

Tliurston , the Hawaiian minister , said
this moraine that ho had. not recoivcd his
passports from the Unite * ! SUto govern

pect any such course as probable. ' 1 hero Is no
diplomatic impropriety , ho said , in a foreign
minister making n personal statement in his
defense when ho is personally assailed , and
he triuirstoin considered ho and the mem
bers of the proviblonal government , as indi
viduals , had been personally assailed and
their veracity impugned. The Hawaiian
nubile will probably receive Us first news of
the Ureshura letter tomorrow , when the

WK. T SOMEIIVII.I.E. Mass , Nov. 22. Hon.
John Ij. Slovens , I L D. , of Augusta , Mo. ,
ex-minister to Hawaii , lectured on Hawaii
and Hawaiian affairs in a lydcuin course in
this city tonight. In the aiidiolicc wcro
several gentlemen who have in the past ,
been identified with Hawaiian affairs.
The lecturer refrained from maVingnnv
direct allusion to or criticism of the recent
development In recrnrd to the Hawaiian
question. Iso reference was made to the
Blount report or President Cleveland's ac
tion upon It and he also declined to discuss
the subject to an Associated press reporter
subsequently.
Before beginning his address he remarked
that during his thirteen years service as
United States ininisterundorflve presidents
he had Invariably refused to recognize po
litical parties in his own country : that on
nil questions Involving his action he had
known the United States as a unit , believing
that in our foreign relations our policy
should bo national and continuous , always
with an united front to our foreign rivals.
American Intercut In Iliiuall.
He had firmly refused to consider the
Hawaiian question a partisan question In any
sense. Continuing , ho said : "Our interest
in Hawaii appertains to at least three ques
tions more or less distinct from each other ,
though they have not been considered en
tirely separate. There is the question of
Christian civilization ; there is the question
of American future commerci il power in the
Pacific , and the third involves the issue of
responsible government under the American
Hag in harmony with pledged American faith ,
the best American antecedents and the plain
logic of American history and American op
portunities. The increase of freeholders ,
farmers and fruit cultivators Is the aim of
the present provisional government , which
hasrcaolved to cut up the crown and govern
ment lands and dispose of them to men of
Imlted means who wish to make for them-
elves permanent homes and become re
sponsible citizens on American lines of de
velopment. Under the monarchy these
crown lands were leased out often to palace
avorites at much less than their relative
alucand , not { infrequently , were the means
of political corruption. Wnich of these two
lolicics shall be followed as to dealing with
hese lands is of great importance to tne
future of the islands. While Kalakaua was
good natured , no had never assented to the
constitution in good faith. He sought op-
lortunity to change it and regain his lost
tower. Dying In January , IS'JO , his sister ,

she .Strme to Maku Kurmles.
"Deep in the conspiracj to remove the Wil-
cox-Jones ministry , whom all the best men
of the islands wished to continue , she signed
he lottery and opium bills , appointed to her
rabinet men who had been the chief parties
n bringing the lottery Dill throueh the legis-
ature , and immediately followed it by her
attempted coup d'etat , calling a worthless
mob of retainers to her assistance and try-
ng to proclaim a constitution givng | herself
an arbitrary pov/er , overturning an incor-
uptible and honest supreme court and civ-
ng to herself the appointment of now Judges
and the final appeal to herself. This was
Saturday , January 14. From that hour Iho
Hawaiian monarchy was absolutely dead ,
ind no restoration is possible by the exer
cise of some foreign power. At the date of
icr downfall the misguided and unworthy
Liliuokalanl was \ \ ithout the sympathy and
ild of the best native Hawailans and all the
respectable and responsible white residents
of the island. Not a hand was lifted in de
fense of the semi-barbarinn throne when
it fell , conclusively disproving the assertion
of iho agent of tno fallen queen sent "to
Washington to secure as largo a sum of
money as possible for conveying to our gov
ernment all her right and title to the Ha-
tvailan throne and the crown lands to which
she had never had any other claim than to
tlio Income as long as she reigned. The
agent , before embarking for Washington ,
made sure of a large advance fee of thou
sands of dollars , which the fallen
queen paid . out of her own purse ,
and he thought It might help his case
by the use of the utterly base statement
that the United States minister and naval
commander had deprived the queen of her
throne , and Glaus Spreckels. who wants a
weak Hawaiian monarchy for his tool ,
though he was 2,000 miles away when the
queen fell , sees fit to repeat this absurd
story of the queen's lawyer , who happens to
* be one who had formerly served Spreckels
In California , and whom the unscrupulous
sugar king makes use ot in Hawaii. In
presenting , themselves for admission
into the American union the islands
coine under more American aspects than any
of our previously annexed states or territo
ries. Why should they not bo permitted to
come under the flag so deeply loved in the
islands ?
Hupmlcg of Annexation.
"A largo part of those born on the Islands

waiians are ot American parentage , and
they make an important portion of the
American colony. IJut 1 hear a whisper in
tnuair : 'Let tno islands vote on the ques
tion.1 This demand roinea from three dis
tinct sources. It was first made by the
British minister at Honolulu , a tory In
politics , many years a resident of Hawaii ,
a person antagonistic to American interests ,
and by personal grounds and family rela
tions strongly attached to the fallen
Hawaiian monarchy. After Its organization
iu January last he urged this plan to the
provisional government. The scheme was
brought forward by the queen's attorney ,
The lottery and opium rings , of which
the fallen queen's lawyer is believed
to be the agent , favors the plan.
Whllo the ultra tory English and
the Canadian Pacific railway have purposes
In vlow other than those of the fallen queen
and the lottery and opium rings , they ar *
agreed as to the method of dofcatlng an
nexation. The ex-queen's attorney -"as
often the paid agent of Claus Spreckels ,
and the latter makes part of the alliance to
kill annexation by the plebiscituui.
"This is an alliance as powerful as it is
disreputable. It Is not admissible by honest
Americans , for the following reasons : It
would surely result In the raising of an
enormous conniption fund by tUo allied par-
tics. The Canadian Pacific railroad is a
power in Canadian politics , and in the vast
has used vast bribes to accomplish its de
signs , 'and wants to have its foot and band
firmly in Hawaii ,

to do so will be at the cost of future genera

B.vncEi.oxA , Nor. 22. Another sensation
has been caused here by the discovery of a
nest of anarchists at 20 Rona san Pablo In
this city. Since tha attempt upon the life
of General Martinez Campos and the bomb
outrage at the Lycco theater , the police
have been most active In searching for
anarchists and in watching all these sus
pected of balng In nny way connected wltu
anarchistic conspiracies. It now appears
that 20 Uona san Pablo was the place where
the chief anarchist club of Spain met and
from which Its chiefs directed the policy of
many other anarchistic clubs in the king
dom.
dom.At
At the anarchist headquarters the police
arrested Miguel Nacher , president of tbo
Spanish anarchists , and two womsn who
are said to have acted as messengers ex
traordinary for the anarchists In conveying
messages to and from points outsldo the
city from which they were transmitted to
their destination.
The police in addition obtained possession
of a large quantity of material and chemicals
used in the manufacture of dynamite bombs ,
as well as a quantity of loaded and unloaded
bombs , a largo number of pistols and a mass
of anarchist literature , consisting of pamph
lets , circulars and placards , all of which
formed part of the stock of such matter
which was being circulated throughout
Spain.
They also seized some most important
documents , which , it is belloveu , will enable
them if they act promptly to cause many
other anarchist branches in Spain , France
and Italy , is well as In other foreign coun
tries , to be raided.
The police also raided the house of the
wife of an anarchist known as Pablo Herat ,
situated in the vicinity of the Castle of
Mont Julch , in front of which fortification
Pallas , the anarchist , was shot to death for
his attempt 10 kill General Martinez
Campos.
Reports are In circulation hero to the
effect that the arrest of a large number-of
anarchists in several cities of Spain may
shortly be made and a numbjr of them are
already reported to be escaping from the
largo cities into the country with the
people , or forcing their way towaid tha
frontier and Into Prance , where they are
known to have a large number of sympa
thizers and where the anarchists' conspiracy
is said to be oven more widespread and
completely organized than in Spain.
The Information which the authorities
have been enabled to give to the Spanish
government has been communicated to the
government of France and is likely to lead
to a considerable number of arrests In that
country. The French government has been'
asked to instruct the frontier authorities to
subject every man , woman and child passing
the frontier to the most strict search and
examination and will furnish ordinary
travelers with passports only after the
antecedents of the travelers have been in
vestigated by the authorities.
The Spanish consul at Perpignan has
already reported to the authorities here
that two more Italians implicated in the
dynamite outrage at the Lycco theater have
been arrested , "making over two hundred
now in custody charced with being im
plicated in the terrible crime.

PAHIS , Nov. 22. The police of St. Etienne
have raided a number of haunts where
French and/ foreign anarchists were sup
posed to be in hiding and have seized an
anarchist manifesto , wnich is said to have
been distributed in many pTim of France
and possibly mailed to foreign countries , de
fending the dynamite outrages at Barcelona
and at Marseilles and predicting that other
and similar outrages will soon be perpetrated
in France.
Several arrests have also been made , and
the police throughout the republic are tak
ing every precaution to prevent injury to
public buildings.
Acting u | > on instructions received from
the government the police are compiling a
record ot all persons suspected of being in
any way connected with anarchist societies
and they will , for some time to come , bo
kept under the strictest surveillance. In
addition to the regular force of detectives
the police authorities have been empowered
to employ additional agents , whose duty
will be to keep a careful watch upon
anarchists and those associated with them.
It is untlerhtood that the Italian and Spanish
governments are acting in this matter in
concert with the government of France , and
upon the reports which will be furnished to
the three governments some additional and
combined action will be taken looking to
tiia suppression of anarchists and the
prompt arrest'and punishment of those en
gaged in dangerous conspiracies.

Finally , the committee believes that the

MONTEVIDEO. Uruguay ( via Galveston ,
Tex. ) , Nov. ± J. [ By Mexican Cable to the
NewYont Herald-Special to TUB BEE. ]
There Is no longer any doubt hero that the
report tf the proclamation by Admiral Meilo
of Prince Picrro as emperor of Brazil Is
Utterly false as are the stories of his de
parture from Europe for the scene of the
revolution. General Saldanha do Sama ,
Mcllo's chief reliance in his light , is a stanch
republican and could not bo made to favor a
monarchy on any conditions , while Prince
Plerro is said to be still in Vienna. Presi
dent Peixoto's agents are openly accused of
spreading these reports , in order to hurt the
cause of the revolutionists.
The Heralds correspondent In Riodo
Janeiro sends word that conflicting rumors
are in circulation there with regard to the
attitude of Peixoto's ministers on the con
duct of the campaign against Mollo. Some
of them think that the civil war might have
been crushed at any moment during the last
month by more aggressive work on the pirt
of the loyal forces.
It has become known to Peixoto's adminis
tration that Mello Intends to make an effort
to get out of the harbor of Rio dc Janeiro
with his llapship Aquldaban , in order to meet
Peixoto's warships which are coming down
from New York and give them battle on the
open sea. Preparations to give him a hot re
ception as he tries to run the gauntlet of the
forts at the harbor entrance are being ac
cordingly made with all haste.

LONDON , Nov. 22. The Times tomorrow ,
November 21) ) , will print the following dis
patch from Rio de Janeiro , dated November
IS , via Montevideo November J2 :
Heavy artillery lire continues daily. Forts
Villegaignon and Lage have been greatly
battered. During the bombarding of Satur
day a shell burst at Fort Lage , killing
eigtitecn men. Parts of the city are peril
ous , owing to the fusiladc of rifles and ma
chine guns , there having been many casual-
tics in the streets.
The foreign diplomats consider it Impossi
ble to take further steps for the protection
oflife and property and naval commanders
concur in the general opinion , winch favors
letting bath sides go on without any further
interference. Admiral de Mello is inclined
to bombard the city after forty-elirht hours
notice.
Admiral Garna , who recently joincd.lUo
insurgents , confirms the telegram of last
week , saying that dg Mello is disposed to
wait until the 'end of tlio ' rprolution and
then take a plebiscite of tha country on the
rfuestion of a monarchy.
The insurgents are confident of success.
They have captured Bage ii" t'lc ' province
of Rio Grande do Sul ) , and are making pro
gress northward.
President Peixoto is preparing for a stub
born defense of Rio de Janeiro , and states ,
he intends fighting to the last , and that1
when his ships arrive he expects victory.
All business is suffering severely , and
every branch is stagnant. The tinanci.il
position to the government is difllcult. The
treasury is exhausted , and the fact that
Pcrnatnbuco has been declared in a state of
siege shows the spread of the movement.

now adds another to the many Important dis
patches which he has sent to the Herald
since the revolution begun. As usual his
minister of foreign affairs signs the communi
cation , which confirms in the most emphatic
manner one of the Herald's many exclusive
and trustworthy dispatches from its own
correspondent in Rio do Janeiro. The presi
dent's dispatch is as follows :

CoNsrANTisoi'LE , Nov 32. The spread of
the cholera is Increasing here , and the aver
age recently was thirty new cases and
twenty deaths a day A dangerous agita
tion is evident among the loner classes ,
owing to the malevolent reports thai lha
government directors pronounce all patients
examined by them to be suffering from
cholera , and then poison them with pills.
The fact that some mistakes have occurred
have tended to contlrm the rumors , and
trouble Is feared unless the bad impression

burned buildings. All of these blocks
are upon Worthington street. The last block
