LAST EFFORT TO REGAINTIER CROWN.

1JKit PLANS FAILED.
SAN FKAXCISOO, March 9.—Advices from Honolulu dated March 1 say:* "A conspiracy that boded ill for the irrcservatiou of peace in the Hawaiian islands has just been nipped in the bud. It was a conspiracy to bring about a conflict between English and Americans Honolulu In the hope that an international issue might arise, and that during a possible subsequent clash between Great lJritain and the United Slates the question that is now prominent in every one's mind hero might bo torgotteti and the islands loll to themselves anu Lihuokalani might seize her throne.
Idli's I.ant KfVort.
"It was probably ex-Queen Tdliuokalani's last and most desperate elTort regain tho crown which was taken away from her. The' manner in which the information camo to the provisional government is not known, but It ia evident that they were not to bo caught napping and were minutely informed of certain actions which on their face appeared to be suspicious, and behind which were motives and wishes that a week of development might have reunited in far more serious complications than could be conceived of.
Tho Movement Chocked.
'The movement was clucked, and checked effectively, Monday, February
4*7,
two days be
fore this dispatch leaves Honolulu. It was at noon of that day that orders were issued by President Dole that the guards of the ex-queen be immediately disbanded. These guards, sixteen number, took the oath of allegiance iu onW that thev might carry arms afid were in fact connected with tho provisional government forces, though in reality they were a distinct organization. 'They were chosen by tho queen, the provisional government allowing her to pick the men with its aproval.^
As soon as Col. Sopor, commander of the provisional forces, received his instructions he sent a squad of men to the house where the queen is living and they escorted back to the palace barracks the company of men that hail been doing duty in and about Liiiuokivlani's house. They were marched into the grounds of the palace, their arms taken from them, also their uniforms, and they wore informed that they must hereafter rank as civilians. This fiinmnarjMJisnitesal frum all employment under the government gave rise to some talk, and although there were many surmises as to the possible reason for it the truth was not generally known. Col. Super said the guards had t,ecu withdrawn because there was no necessity for their continuance.
WW Ho Closely Watebe«(.
'The exact reason for this withdrawal was evidently not even known to the commander. Hut it is stated that thus sixteen agents of the ex-queen, her coworkers and sympathizers, were disposed of. From now until the time that Uncle Sam may lake possession of tho islands Liliuokalani will be closely watched. Her goings and coinings will not be restricted, nor will any one be prevented from seeing her, but a report will be made as to each visitor. There is another person who will be watcbedHe is A. 3- Cleghoru. father of Princess Ivaiu. lani and brother-in-law of Liliuoklani. There Is no authority for stating positively that a watch will be kept upou Hritish Minister Wcdehouse.
Tried to Create Trouble.
Last Saturday evening thirty English sailors were invited to the house of the ex-queen. They visited there ostensibly as the guest of the-queon's guard, and were plied with all the liquors they wanted. After awhile tho talk changed to political subjects, and the bitterness of those assembled towards Americans be came apparent. The men were applauded by tho ex-queen's supporters, patted on the back and encouraged. Fortunately Lieutenant Commander Swinburne had ordered his men to return early, aud had threatened them with heavier punishment than usual In ease of drunkennesss. The ex-queen's guards had miscalculated the time, and the carousal that they had hoped would lead to bloodshed was prolonged too long. Minister John L. Stevens, speaking about this plot to cause English sailors to get into a light with Americans, said: 'In any other land tho ex-queen would not have beeu allowed the liberty she has enjoyed here. She would have been kept under constant surveillance, if not under restraint. I have no doubt but her encouragement was given to tho actions of the guards, and that it was at her intimation that the Britishers were invited to ter house.'
Premature Joy.
"The early part of tho present week witnessed scenes of much enthusiasm in Honolulu, iud the stars aud stripes were probably more generally displayed than at any lime in Hawaiian history. The arrival o, the steamship China from San Francisco Mon. day, February 20, followed by that of the Australia February 22, brought intelligence that caused great satisfaction to the provisional government and the American party in the islands. On the, first uamed date, when it became known that President Harrison and his cabinet had decided upon a favorable course in regard to the disposition of tho islands, excited throngs gathered about the docks, post oftlee and news stands and discusaod tho information received. The prompt action of the administration in the matter was warmly commended by Americans irrespective of party limitations us well as by many of the Germau residents. "The scene, however, was nothing line that of February 22, when tho Australia brought tho news that a message from President- Harrison, providing for a treaty of annexation of the islands, had gone to the senate, and that as far as the American government was concerned the islands were probably apart of the United States when tho Australia arrived. The day was tho anniversary of the birth of Washington and was being observed as a.general holiday. The streets wcro Illled with natives and others in their best attire. Flags were Moating from many buildings and from vessels in the harbor, the whole forming in the bright sunlight a pretty setting for the Introduction of the startling effect furnished by the steamer from Sun Francisco.
Betting on the Queen.
At the clost? of last week a rumor was current on the streets of Honolulu that the senate would not ratify the treaty of annexation and several wagers were made that the queen would come again to her throne. Several members of the advisory council, discussing the rumor, said that if the United States should refuse to take action it would drive tho provisional government to take up arms again. Said one of them: 'We fought to obtain the ground we have secured and we will light to maintain it. There are fifteen persons at least in this country who would bo instantly deported it trouble again arose and there uro a number of others who would be taken out and hanged to a tree and shot.'" "When asked if overtures would be made to other powers if tho United States choso to decline to accept tho propositions of the Hawaiian commissioners tho councillors replied that they might be compelled to apply elsewhere if the United States forcos were withdrawn.
Natives Hostile to rHilioxat Ion. '•The main idea to be controverted in order to appease the native hostility to annexation is that the Hawaiians are to be entirely deprived of any rights which they may possess, audn.ro to be placed absolutely in the power of what they term the •missionary' ek-ment, and which in composed of the most influential whites in tho island. The Associated Press correspondent has made a careful canvass of the native side of the question, and, nr. result. two general propositions pi and forth: That no general insurrection against United authority vould be

9riginMed, no matter what might bo dfrno nndcr other rule, and, secondly, that annexation, If it did not carry with it disfranchisement of the native voters for a lengthy period, would not bo altogether unpopular." •?. j\

Si'HiXfiFiRi.n, 111., March 9.—Senator Johnson's insurance bill which had advanced to a third reading and threatened to abolish nil the mutual be lie tit fraternities in this state is "as dead as a door nail." Senator Johnson, the author of the. bill, said thai, having learned the fraternities were endangered he would sec that the bill did notpass as it stood. Either it would be amended so as to steer clear of the mutual benefit organizations or else the bill as a whole would be killed. At the morning session of the senate he took steps in this direction by moving that tho bill be recommitted for amendment. The motion prevailed.
ISeforu the vote on his motion was taken Senator Johnson said he had intrclueed the bill under a misapprehension. lie then answered an attack by 0. A. Warren, supreme scribe of the Royal league, in a Chicago paper, calling Warren a liar. When lie sat down Senator O'Conor moved that Warren be excluded from the floor of the senate. The motion prevailed, with seven negative votes. Mr. Warren came on the lloor shortly after the question was decided and took a seat near Senator l'liil Knopf. A doorkeeper slipped up to the supreme scribe and informed him of the action of the senate. Mr. Warren quietly walked out.

NEW OIII.EANS, March 9.—Hob FitzRimmons knocked oui Jim Jlall in four rounds, lasting twelve minutes and thirty-four seconds, Wednesday night, lie did it by a blow that will shine on the pages of the history of American pugilism when both lighters are "has beens" and younger wonders have taken their places. It was a right-hand swinging blow, full on Hall's left jaw and low down where sueli blows count fast. Quick as a Hash it caught liall and literally lifted him lip and backwards. He fell straight back as dead out as ever a pugilist was. Hut for the felt beueath the canvass his head would have suffered as it struck the platform heavily. It was a terrific punch and for a few seconds Hall lay still and quiet and scarcely seemed to breathe. liob Was Scared.
The crowd and Fitzsimmons thought he was dead. Fitz grew frightened and went over and after a first buoyant burst of joy aided Mitchell and McAuliffe in getting llall back to' consciousness. Bob bathed Hall's face with his own whisky and tenderly unlaced his gloves and chafed his hands as Hall opened his eyes. Dr. Hetts was called in and aided the work. Hall was carried to his corner and sat there, feeble and j*nlc, as the crowd tiled out. lie hud to be, led to his room.
The Itig Purse.
The purse was not for the middleweight championship of the world, but it mitfht have been, as that title was involved. Fitzsimmons had whipped Dempscv, the champion of America, and Hall had won his battle with ICntfland's champion in the class. J»nt the men Wednesday niyht fought at catch' weights for superiority only. .Hall weighed 17-1 and Fitzsimmons 100. vethe did not look much lighter than Hall.
The purse was $40,000. the largest sum ever offered a pair of lighters. Of that sum $2,300 went to the loser and the remainder to the winner. Kitzsimmons earned by nine and one-half minutes' fighting, in which he was but tc little roughed up in a rally of the third rofind.
Tho Fight by ituuuds.
Round 1—Before the sound of the time's sous had ceased its sonorous Hang both men were in the center of the riug. Both feint* for an opening. Fitzsimmons attempted a left upper cut, which felt short. Fitz landed a light left on Hall's shoulder. Hall landed on File's head lightly with his left. Kit7. sent in a hot.left on Hall's forehead and followed with his right on the body. Fitz missed an upper cut. Hail jumping away. Hall swung his left and missed, KHz landing left on Hall's ear light. Fit/, sent a good left iu to Hall's body and followed with two light jabs. Bob landed his left on Hall's breast and both clinched. Hall tried to use his right in the clinch and was hissed. The youg soundpd with both men sparring. KHz did all tho lighting in the round.
Hound 2—Fitz landed two light lefts on Hull's breast. Hall breaking ground repeatedly, but he got a vicious right on tho body. Hall landed a light left on Fitzsimmons' head. Hall got home with a left on body and head lightly, then came more sparring. Hail cleverly stopped a vicious right for his stomach. Fitz got home on Hall's body and Hull got a heavy rlght-luuider on Fitz'jaw. There was a hot rally in Hall's cor. nor, In which both men got stiff lefts and wen clinched as the gong rang.
Round 3—Both men came up slowly. Kit/simmons landed a hot left on Hall's stomach, and again without return Fitz landed a heavy left on Hall's head Hard infighting followed, both men getting punishment. Referee Duffy had to separate the men, but not before llall landed a right and left on Fitzsimmons' head, staggering him. Hall missed him with a savage right swing, which Flu ducked. Another hot rally ended with a clinch, but little punLshment being given. Fitz landed hard on Hall's head, following it with aright and left swing on Hall's body. It was a severe round, with savage half-arm work by both, with mean, ugly work while in the clinches.
Round 4—There was thirty seconds of sparring.and Fitzsimmons, lauding with the left, got in at his man, and, crossing him with a terrhlc right on tho point of tne jaw,knocked him clean off his feet and Hall went down with a thud, his head strikiug the platform win* ltrcc enough to kill had the felt not saved him. Hall never moved as ho was counted out, and it took all the work of Mitchell and McAul ilTe to get him back to consciousness. In a minute Ktzsimmons carried over a flask of whisky to aid in their work. At last Hall eyes opened and Mitchell carried him to bis corner, da/ed uitd tearful looking, while, the crowd Hied out

Shortly after arriving in this oitj Wednesday morning Fitzsimmons got in a carriage with Judge Lazarus ami drove to the criminal court building, where he took out naturalization papers.
