WASHINGTON, Oct 4.--The unsettled con-
dition of affairs at Honolulu has caused
Secretary Of State Foster to request that
United States war vessel be kept there for
the present, and accordingly the navy de-
partment has countermsnded the orr
ders for the return of the
Boston. The countermand was
telegraphed TO San Francisco
and forwarded by the mail steamer which
sailed last Saturday. The United States
steam Alliance had previously sailed
for Honolulu TO relieve the Boston and expe-
dite her return. If the countermand does
notreach Honolulu before the departure of
the Boston another ship may be dispatched
from San Francisco to reinforce the AL
lance

ened American seamen aud marines have
been landed and the other naval powers
have given a sort of tacit consent to the
United States exercising such powers in
the Islands. When, uDon the death Of
King KalakRua, Queen Liliuokalani as
cended the throne it was generally under
stood that she was in favor OF cultivating
the friendship Of Great Britain rather than
the United States, and when a short time
after her accession, her American husband,
John Dominis, died, it was feared the En-
glish influence would be still s5ronger. Since
then the agitation in the Islands of the
proposition of annexation to the United
States and the election to the legislature Of
a large number of members on an annexa-
tlon platform have not tended to draw her
more closely to this country. The chief con-

that something may happen TO prevent this
government securing the control OF Pearl
