SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. Ia, 1890.

tions by both the newspapers and
society people of San Francisco.
The newspapers, or private letters
from Honolulu or some other per-
sons inclined to gossip, have started
various ridiculous rumors about
schemes of annexation, barter in
treaties and other absurdities totally
unfounded and already officially
contradicted here and by Hon. III. A.
p. Carter, Hawaiian Minister to
Washington. 1t is quite true Mr..
Carter arrived in San Francisco this
afternoon (l4th) but merely to pay
his respects to the King.
The San Francisco Chronicles at
tempt of Dec. 10th to throw dis
credit upon Minister CATERS state
ment is without basis and the allie
cation of the same paper that the
King will start for Washington in
January is entirely without author
ity, as was learned by your CORES
pendent after strict enquiry. l am
authorized to state that the date for
King Kalakaua's return to Honolulu
will be shortly announced and viii!
be sent to Honolulu by the steam
ship China, which [ believe is due
there upon Christmas Day.
The King has been enjoying his
visit in quiet way and on Monday,
the eighth instant, spent the greater
portion of the day at his Hotel,
where he received large number of
callers. On Wednesday evening,
the tenth instant, His Majesty was
banqueted by the Union Club and
upon next Tuesday evening, the six
teenth instant, he will be entertained
by the Bohemian Club. The enter

one of the grandest affairs ever wit
messed in San Francisco and will be
held in the new bohemian Club

Club the King has many personal
friends who will take leading part

Fair, Col. H. T. Brady, Mr.. Henry
Heyman, Hon. VIM. L. Alvoid,
President of the Bank of California,
Gen. w. III. l.. Barnes and many
others. 1t will be remembered that
when the Queen visited the United
States some four years ago the
Bohemian Club extended to herself
and suite many courtesies, among
which was private reception and
entertainment after the Queen had
attended the opening of the Sar
Francisco Art Association.
On Wednesday morning, the l6tl

panied by Hon. H. A. Widemann
who remains over until the mex
