STOUT WORDS FROM HAWAII.

The latest advices from Honolulu.
being up to Dee. 18th. are very inter
esting reading. From them 1t is learned
that the little republic has been fear
fully racked 10y the unfavorable news
that was received from this country. but
that in spite eff all. the adherents of the
provisional government. had manfully
met the situation and by the agency OF
public meetings and proclamatlons had
given all to understand that they would
yield to no power except the United
States. and then only compelled by force
to do so. On the oath Of Nov. the is
ianders first learned of the proposed res
toration of Lillioukalani. At first all
was CONSERVATION on the part OF the
'annextlonists' as the provisional gov
party is termed. and unre-
strained delight by the royalists. but
three days after the annexation!sts held a
public meeting which was largely at
tende and at which the following reso-
luton was adopted:
Resolved. That we read with sur
prise and regret the recommendation OF
the secretary of state of the United
States to the pr, sident to restore the
monarchy lately twisting in Hawaii. We
condemn the assumption OF h secre-
tary that the light of the provisional
government to exist is terminated by his
refusal to sntmit to the Senate the
treaty of union pending between the two
countries and also his assumption that
the provisional government submitted
the question Of its continued existence
to the arbitration Of its president or any
other power. We will support to the
best of our ability the provisional gov
eminent in resisting any attack upon it
which may be contrary to the usage of
nations,
The resolution was warmly supported
in speeches. President Hatch of the An
~nexation club being remarkably procible

viewing the vents that have led up to

YESLER CONTEST.
Widow of the Millionaire
on Trial.
A LAWYERS REVELATIONS.
Her Attempt to Have Her Husband
Deed Certain of His Property
TO Her.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

SEATTLE. Feb. 1.-The hearing OF Mrs.
Minnie Yesler on a charge of conspirng
with DR.. j. Eugene Jordan and DR.. Ii. Mar
tin Van Buren, to destroy the last will of
her husband, the late pioneer millionaire.
Fl. l.. Yester. began before Justice
Humphrey to-day. The hearing of all
three accused was set for the same time,
but though Jordan aud Van Buren, had in
sisted on an early clearing up of the
charges they waived hearing and gave bail
for trial in the Superior Court. Each was
held in $4,000 on each Of the two charges
forgery and conspiracy.
In the case of Mrs. Yesler several hours
were occupied by her counsel in motions to
dismiss the charge of forgery and demands
for bill of particulars. both of which were
0verruled.
Fred H. Peterson, an attorney. was the
first witness. He said that early in Novem-
Der, while Yesler was i'll. Mrs. Yesler
came. to him and requested him to go TO
Yesler and ask him to settle some of the
property on her. On receiving the commits
sion from her, he called on the old man.
Yester was dispIeased at the proposal,
and said he had already arranged his prop
erty affairs. He had made a will, and in it
remarked that wills were very uncertain
things, and that 1t would be better 10 settle
certain property on her without making
will Yesler replied: 'Pll be --if l
will do IT,"
5. L. Crawford told of meeting Yesler a
few months after the great fire OF 1882 when
the city was arranging to take part of the
1eSler property to widen Pioneer place, and
the old man was very angry because no
plans had been made for conversation.
Yesler took paper out Of his pocket and
gave 1t 10 Crawford to read. 1t was his
last will, and one passage bequeathed his
residence and the block on which it stands
to the city Ii then tore the will to pieces
and threw it in the street. He lad habit
of procrastination about his affairs that
made 1t probable that he never made a new
will.
The hearing was continued till tomorrow
morning.
The crowd in the courtroom was so great
that the court moved TO a large hall in the
building. The city is eagerly watching the
proceedings. Very sensational defelop-
ments are expected, as it has been openly
assested that Yesler was poisoned.
