 SAN FRANCISCO, August By the ar | rival of the steamer Australia this even l ing from Honolulu, news is received of
 an attempt to overthrow the Hawaiian government on July 30.
 Two half white Hawaiians named
 Rabert w. Wilcox and Robert Boyd,
 who were formerly educated at an Ital-
 ian military school at the governments
 expense, had been plotting an insurrec- |
 in the morning of the Both, an armed band of about 150 men marched into | the city and up to the Kings palace,
 and knocked at the gates. After some | parlying they were admitted without
 opposition. and were here joined by sev- eral other squads until they numbered
 about 25O men.
 The King was absent at the time, be- | ir,rr af hc f, ov,1 h0fr | warned by telephone, the royal party fled
 to the Kings boat house, and there re
 mained all day guarded by the house hold troops.
 Meanwhile, the rebels under Wilcox,
 called on Lieutenant Parker to surren- der the palace, but that brave officer,
 with only dozen soldiers at his dispo- sal, refused, and seing his stubborness about 100 rebels deserted.
 A general alarm was spread through the city, which caused much excitment A number of families fled to the top of Punch Bowl hill, and many ladies took refuge at the American legation, where a corpse of marines from the steamer Adams was stationed.
 The Honolulu rifles hurriedly gather ed at their armories. The cabinet was held early in the afternoon. and the American, British, French and Portu- guese commissioners were present. It was decided to send Hon. 5. M. Damon to demand the surrender of Wilcox. and appointed V. V Ashford to commad the government forces.
 Damon proceeded to the palace where
 esveral shots were exchanged with the rebels, and Damon had to make his es- cape between tive fires, the rebels hay ing the field pieces on the sharpshOoters who had found lOdgment in the open house which commanded view of the grounds. Five of the sharp shooters, however, soon drove the rebels from their guns, and the rifles having receiv- ed endorsements the rebels retired within the residences known as the Queen Bungalow, and did but little shooting thereafter. At l:30 D. m. the rioters were surrounded by Lieutenant Parker's corps of volunteers command ing the Bungalow, and from thence dynamite bombs were thrown at the buildings, while the sharp shooters from the opera house kept up furious fusilade until the badly frightened riot CTS rushed from the buildings waving white flags and offering to surrender. The gates were then thrown open and a force of volunteers entered and took a number of the rebels prison CTS, amongst them being Wilcox and Boyd. The rebels lost seven men killed | and twelve wounded. Boyd, one of the | leaders of the rebels was shot in the leg and bullet graZed his head, but neither | of the wounds are serious. A number 1 of the rioters escaped by scaling the | Palace walls and running the gauntlet. l Altogether about fifty rioters were ar rested. The Bungalow was torn to | pieces by the bombs. Three men were | tried later for treason although not ac- lively engaged in the riot, and others | were to be tried shortly.
 'TRUCKEE, California, August 12-l A man named Pagan was taken to the | passenger train last night covered with | tar and feathers. Five men were noti- fled to leave last night and all except | Pagan obeyed. He boasted that he could not be run out of town and em- phasized his remarks by drawing a pis- tol on one man, beating his paramOur cruelty, and chasing her with a drawn pistol. He was arrested and lodged in jail, and last night the locks were brok- en of the door by one hundred masked men. Pagan was taken out and tarred and feathered. The committee went to his room, got his trunk and valise, check ed them to Sacramento, give him tick ct to the state capital, and guarded the train untilit left. Pagan is sad to have served two terms in state prison. It is that had the vigilants had had proof that he was an ex-convict they would have hung him. At one tune rope was around his neck and over limb, and nearly half the commit tee strongly urged hanging.
