MAY GET HER CROWN

Hawaii's Deposed Queen to Be Restored to Her Throne.

POLICY OF THE ADMINISTRATION.

Secretary Greshkm Declares That the Dethronement of Ltlluokalaol Was au Outrage, for Which Reparation

Should Be Made.

AN IMPORTANT DOCUMENT. WASHINGTON, NOV. 11.—Secretary of State Gresham made public Friday night the most Important state paper that has borno his name since the present administration began. It was addressed to President Cleveland, and informed him that the overthrowal of Queen Liliuoltalani, of Hawaii, was broughtabout by such an abuse of the authority of the United States, and by such "force and fraud," that nothing: short of a restoration of the queen to her throne would satisfy the demands of justice.

Voices Cleveland's Views.

The cabinet had considered the Hawaiian question for two hours Friday afternoon and the Gresham letter was given out at the conclusion of the meeting1. While no official indorsement by President Cleveland was attached, the formal xnannor in which the letter was made public left no room for doubt that it voiccd the views not only of Secretary Gresham but of the administration.

Stlrrluff News I.ooked For. Moreover, it is well known that the publication of the letter was intended to anticipate stirring news which is daily expected from Hawaii. The new minister to that country, Mr. Willis, was due to arrive in Honolulu last Sunday, and the anticipated news can be nothing else than the restoration of the dethroned queen, as foreshadowed in the Gresham letter.

Synopsis of the loftier.

Secretary Grefchani's letter is based upon what the secretary describes as 'the full and impartial report" submitted by J. [1. lilount, Cleveland's special commissioner to the Hawaiian islands. The secretary declares that the following* facts are established:

Queen Lilluokalani announced her intention Saturday, January 14, 1893, to proclaim a new constitution, but the opposition of her ministers induced her to change her purpose. At a meeting tn Honolulu late the afternoon of that day a so-called oommittee of public safety, consisting of thirteen men, a majority of whom, Including five Americans, were aliens, was appointed

uto

consider the situ­

ation and devise ways and means for thc maintenance of the public peace and the protection of life and property." This committee met tbe 15th or the forenoon of the 16th and resolved among other things that a provisional government be created, "To exist until terms of union with the United States of Amerioa have been negotiated and agreed upou." i.

Appealed to Uncle Sam.

The committee addressed a letter to John L. Stevens, the American minister at Honolulu, stating that the lives and property of the people were In peril and appealing to him and the United States forces at his command for assistance. On receipt of this letter Mr. Stevens requested Capt. Wiitz, commander of the United States steamship Boston, to land a force. The well-armed troops were promptly landed and marched through the quiet streets of Honolulu with two Gatling guns to a public hall just across the street from the government building and in plain view of the queen's palace.

A Prompt and Vigorous -Protest. The governor protested against the act as an unwarranted invasion of Hawaiian soil and reminding him that the proper authorities had never denied permission to the naval foroes of the United States to land for drill or any other proper purpose. About the same time the queen's minister of foreign affairs sent a note to Mr. Stevens asking why the troops had been landed and Informed him that the proper authorities were able and willing to afford full protection to the American legation and all American Interests in Honolulu. Only evasive replies were sent to these communications.

Then the oommittee entered tne government building after first ascertaining that it was unguarded, and one of their number, a citizen of the United States, read a proclamation declaring that the existing government wae overthrown and a provisional government established in its plaoe, "to exist until terms of union with thc United States of Amerioa have been negotiated and agreed upon."

No audience was present when the proclamation was read, but during the reading forty or fifty men, some of them indifferently armed, entered the room. The executive and advisory councils mentioned in the proclamation at. once addressed a communication to Mr. Stevens informing him that the monarchy had been abrogated and a provisional government established.

Rocognlzed by Bteveus.

On receipt of this letter Mr. Stevens immediately recognized the new government, and in a note addressed to Sanford B. Dole, Its president, informed him that be had done so The queen was Informed that the provisional government bad the support of tbe American minister, and, if necessary, would be maintained by the military force of the United States, then, present that any demonstration on ber part wnuld precipitate a conflict with that force. Believing that under the circumstances submission was a duty, and that her case would be fairly considered by the president .of the United States, tbe queen tlnally yielded and sent to the provisional government a paper to that effoct. When it was carried to President Dole he indorsed upon It: "Received from tbe hands of the late cabinet this 17th day of January, 1893,*' without challenging the truth of any of Its assertions. Indeed, it was not claimed on the 17th day of January, or for sometime thereafter, by any of the designated officers of the provisional government or any annexationist that the queen surrendered otherwise than as noted in her protest.

Don't Want Annexation.

Secretary Uresham concludes: "The earnest appeals to the American minister for military protection by the officers of the provisional government after it has been advanoed shows its utter absurdity of tbe claim that it was established by a successful revolution of the peoplo. These appeals were a confession by the meu who made them of their weakness and timidity. Courageous men, conspicuous of the strength and the righteousness of their cause, do not thus act. It is now claimed that the majority of the people who have the right of voting under the constitution of 1877 have never favored the idea of annexation to this or any other governinen t. "Mr. Blount states that while at Honoluluhe did not meet a single annexationist who expressed willingness to submit the qucstiou to a vote of the people, nor did ho meet with one favoring that subject who did not Insist that if the Islands were annexed suffrage should be so restricted as to give complete control to foreigners, whites and representative annexationist^ have all made similar statements on the subject.

Justice Demands Kestoratlou. "The government of Hawaii surrendered its authority under a threat of war until su 'h time only as tho government of thc United States, upon the fact being present^! to It, shoutd reinstate the constitutional sovereign and the provisional government wus oreated 'to exist until thc terms of union with the United States of Amerioa have bevn

legotlated and agreed upon. A careful consideration of the facts will, I think, eouvtuce anyone that the treaty which was* withdrawn from the senate for further consideration should not be resubmitted for action. Should not the great wrong done to a feeble independent stau^ by an abuse of the authority of the United 'Staves be undone by restoring tho legitimate government!' Anything short of that will not, I respectfully submit, satisfy the demand of justice. Can the United States consistently insist tha her nations shall respect the Independence of Hawaii while not respecting it themselves? 'Our government was the first to rccognize tho independence of the Islands and should b! the last to assume sovereignity over them by force and fraud."

Kx-President Harrison's View. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Nov. 11.—When ex-president Harrison was informed of tho action of the state department in repudiating the act of the Harrison administration in the Hawaii matter he was much astonished. At first he refused to believe the report Being assured of the fact he said: "Well, that is indeed hard to believe. However, if the present administration is satisfied with its acts I am satisfied with mine." Asked for his opinion Mr. Harrison said: "I am not ready to give an opinion just now. 1 believe I should prefer to let my friends and the press of the country fight it out with the administration. 1 will saj', however, that It is my opinion the provisional governmont of the islands cannot be removed except by force of arms."

THE SOUTH INVADED.

More Than 1,000 Unemployed Men Kncamped at Gretna. Near New Orleans. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 11.—More than 1,000 men are encamped in the open country just outside of Gretna, on the other side of the river, and the camp is constantly increasing in size. As each freight train of the Southeru Pacific arrives bunches of men numbering from ten to forty alight and hurry oft' to the open country. This is the advance guard of the vast army of unemployed persons said to be en route for the south from ail points in Colorado and California. The greater part of the men are not of the tramp order. Many are carpenters and skilled workmen, while a yet greater number are miners. Their story is alike in the feature of lack of money and business in the west aud inability to earn their livings. The police have intimated to the hoards in camp at Gretna that if they invade the city they will be arrested for vagrancy, and this fact has prevented them from crossing the river in any numbers.

LEFT MTTI.K TO CREDITORS. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.. Nov. 11.—Louis T. Menage, the absconding president of the North- stern Guaranty Loan company, must be written down as the colossal swindler of the century. During the last few months of his connection with the company lie misappropriated the money of the corporation to his own use in blocks of thousands of dollars until his stealings footed up the gigantic total of $1,«50,S00.1!. This all comes out in the filing of the schedule of his individual liabilities in tiie office of the clerk of the court of the county. In the schedule all his notes are labeled "secured by collateral security with the N. (. L." No attempt is made to define this collateral. In November, lt9'2, Menage was the debtor of the guaranty company to the extent of $101,650. Although not all iof tnis amount can be traced diiectly out of the coffers of the company, much of it was money which passed directly from the pockets of the patrons of the company to Menage's bank account. At that time his enormous drain (jn the company began, and between that time and May 13. 1893, the financial pirate lias increased his indebtedness to thc company bv SS23,181.49, makiug his total indebtedness to the company on account of notes and similar obligations $084,691.40. iot Money Without Trouble.

The amount that Streeter, vice president of the company, and Menage are charged with stealing in the joint indictments brought against them is $903,713.56. As a sample of the general run of tl.c* loans and the amounts taken during the last months of the existence of the Northwestern Guaranty Loan company, the record for a few days has been picked out at random. January 19 Menage took in round numbers $130,000 in seventy-four notes. January 3(1 he took $19,126 in nineteen notes. In February he borrowed twenty-eight notes in the total sum of $39,50. March 9 he again borrowed, this time $33,000 in twelve notes. April 30 the obliging officials of the company contributed $55,000 to Mr. Menage's personal fortune. But when the last day* of the tottering concern are reached all doubt is dispelled. if there has been any, that Menage entered upon the deliberate fleecing of the company. On May 10, exactly three days before the company suspended, it had enough money to let its enterprising president have $43,516.17 in one note.

Outsiders Were Badly CaugjH...

But this amount of S993,713.50 is only a part of the total indebtedness of Menage. That amount represents what he got out of his company. There are other items made up of moneys contributed by other lambs. The sura total of cash secured from those on the outside is $163,490.

Assets Almost Worthless.

Menage's miscellaneous debts foot up $30,451.84. The last item on the list amounts to $430,170.78. and is called the contingent list. The total liabilities are not footed up in the schedules, but they may be closely approximated from the figures given above. Collected, they are: Claims of the Guaranty Loan company, $984,631.49 claims of banks, corporations, etc., 3103,49ft commercial paper negotiated by Neher & Carpenter, $40,000 miscellaneous, $30,451.84: contingent liabilities. $436,170.78, making a total of $1,650,800.11. As to the assets they may be largely summed up as "collateral security" and stocks In a thousand different companies of little or no value. The assets are of no importance. for no one expected to get anything out of Menage's estate.

A CRANK AT CLEVELAND.

I'nknown Man Attarks Myron T. Herrlck with Dynamite and a ltevolver. CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 11.—A crank called at the office of Myron T. Ilerrlck, secretary and treasurer of the Society for Savings, at noon, and with an alleged dynamite bomb in one hand and a revolver in the other, demanded $50,000. Mr. Uerrick responded by knocking the man down and grappled with him on the floor. While in this position the crank fired a shot, the bullet passing through Herrielc's coat Thc crank then jumped through a window aud escaped.

Gave Another Half Million. CHICAGO, NOV. 11.—John D. Rockefeller made his fourth gift to the Uni verity of Chicago Friday. Its amount is $500,000.

Harris, formerly cashier of the National bank of Dubuque, la., who was convicted of falsifying reports, upon his own plea of guilty, and whose sentence was suspended, pending an appeal for pardon. The petition was based on the alleged trust placed by Harris in the word of the president of the bank. President Cleveland takes occasion to say: "If judges and district attorneys think persons indicted ought uot to be punished, the Indictments had better be abandoned by them in stead of bringing about a conviction and immediately following it with a request forpardon.'"

Discharged and Rearrested. DETROIT,, Mich., Nov. 11.—Stonewall J. De France wits again brought into court for examination on the charge of abducting Joseph l'errien.

LONG IS NOT DISABLED.

Commissioner Lochreit fisys lie

IN

Not

Entitled to a Pension.

WANHINOTON, NOV. 11.— Commissioner of Pensions Lochren has filed his answer in tbe mandamus proceedings instituted by Judge Charles I), l^ong, of Michigan, in the district court of the District of Columbia. The proceeding was an order to the commissioner to show i-,iu-e why he should not restore Judge Long, whom he had dropped from tlie rolls, to his pension of $72 a month. The commissioner says that the pension paid Judge Long is for total disability, and that Judge Long is not disabled. but is drawing a large -alary from the state of Michigan. The fact that Judge Long did not appealbefore a pension examining board so that his case might be settled by the commissioner is a reason why the mandamus should be denied. Further, this court has no jurisdiction to grant a mandamus, except to perforin a statutory act, If the order of the commissioner is illegal Judge Long's remedy is a suit for injunction.

Having one's name on the pension rolls does not constitute a property right. An order was adopted regulating suspensions, reductions and dropping from the rolls, and such action is a departmental construction of legislation which is conclusive. The commissioner asserts that such construction is l-evisable only by the secretary of the interior and can't be restrained, or controlled by any court. Thc commissioner asks that the proceedings be dismissed.
