luton Is Taking Place.
SEATTLE (Wash.), August 24th.-Rear-
Admiral Brown, of the United States
steamship Charleston, which arrived here
from Honolulu last night, stated to an
Associated Press correspondent that the
next advices he receives from the Hawaiian
Islands will probably bring the news of a
revolution, and of the declaration of q
Republic. The Admiral says the educated
natives are dissatisfied with the Govern
ment, which is conducted mostly by for
eigners, and advocate the principle of
Hawaii for Hawaiians. A revolution has
been talked of for some time, and the
Charleston was sent to Honolulu to protect
American citizens. A revolution was
planned for August 4.h.
II learned of it August 1st but the next
day received sailing orders. The natives,
learning this, postponed the revolution un-
til alter the departure of the Charleston,
but l expect to hear by the next advices
from Honolulu that an actual outbreak has
occurred. The King has been persuaded
to join the schemers by a. promise of in
creased power, but they are simply making
tool of him, and as soon as they secure
control of the Government they will put in
es Queen Kalakaua's sister. The reform
party will resist this. and anarchy will en-
l.
and finally in Republic.
