HONOLULU, Nov. 8. The ministerial
deadlock which existed here on the de-
parture OF the steamer Gaelic on Novem-
Der 2 continued until the afternoon of the
sth, when 1t was ended by the appoint
ment of a coalition cabinet consisting of
Hon. G. n. Wilcox, from the Reform
party. and Messrs Cecil Brown. Mark
Robinson and Peter c. Jones from the
business community. the National Reform
and Liberal parties being practically left
out in the makeup of the new ministry.
The present cabinet will probably stand
for three weeks, and have that little span
of official life granted so as to facilitate the
dispatch of official and legislative business,
which has piled I'D during the succession
of deadlocks of late occurrence. An emer-
gency bill to cover the payment Of salaries
tor October and until November 30 was
presented today, and reads now: ITO in
clude December 81
With regard to this new cabinet. the
members are all untried men in minis
terial positions. Minister Wilcox is not
he of revolutionary fame. but white Ha-
waiian, with American proclivities, a
sugar planter, wealthy and but little of
politician. He has charge of the interior
Office. Minister Mark p. Robinson, of the
finance department, and Minister Cecil
Brown were opponents at the late election,
and were completely showed under by
Messrs. Male and Hopkins, who were
elected to seats as mobiles of the kingdom
as representatives of the National Reform
party. Minister Jones was formerly a
member OF the house of Brewer e. Co. He
sold out his interest therein and journeyed
to the United States. visited Portland,
Or, and Boston, Mass. being absent two
years. Attorney General Cecil Brown has
only lately returned from trip to the
Old World. He was formerly member
OF the legislature.
The movement to place this ministry in
power was mp d. etat by Marshal Viii
son, the Queens dignity being main
tanned and the principle fought by the
Reform party, viz: the majority rule, be-
ing practically ignored. Yet the cabinet
has been accepted by all parties to hold
Office at least three weeks.
The libel suit brought against Daniel
Logan. editor Of the Bulletin, for his re-
Elections against United States Minister
Stevens in connection with the shipwreck
of the William A. Campbell, came up in
the police court on November s, and w. f.
Frear, who announced that he appeared
for Minister Stevens, stated that the latter
did not authorize the prosecution and did
not desire that 1t go any further. Deputy
Attorney General Wilder then moved that
a nolle prosequi be entered and Justice
Foster granted the request. Attorney
General Creighton. on being informed Of
the proceedings. stated that the prosecu-
ton of Logan had been undertaken as
the necessary consequence of the corre-
spondence between the American minister
and Hawaiian government.
Objections having been made in some
quarters to the landing of troops twice
and sometimes thrice week from the
United States Boston and Alliance, Capt.
Wilrse, of the Boston, has publicly an
nounced that in future the marines Of the
men-of-war will be landed but once a
week. and then only one company at a
time.
