Every energy of concentrated

All this is in the near future if

Notes.

A political meeting was held
last night at the Government
Building at which, besides the
Cabinet, Paul Neumann, Marshal
Wilson, R. w. Wilcox, E. C. Mac
farlane and Antoine Rosa were
present, besides some others. The
Editor of the Bulletin, Dan Logan,
was sent for.
Friends of the Queen claim that
her actions of Saturday are due
to advice furnished by kahunas.
The members of the Hui Kalai-
alma were angry enough to tear
their Queen to pieces when they
learned that she had weakened and
would not give them their new
Constitution. They were an alb
ject looking lot as they marched
on King street with their hand-me-
down plug hats.
The revolutionist party held a
meeting at the Palace Sunday
morning. The Queen called in the
Hawaiian pastors who were present
to pray that she might keep her
Throne, and told them that evil
minded foreigners were trying to
take it away from her.
The early arrival of the U. S. S.
Boston cut an important figure in
the proceedings of Saturday. In
the minds of many the presence of
the warship prevented the promul-
cation of the constitution.
The new instrument which the
revolutionists wish to proclaim is
really the old Constitution, which
gave SO much power to the sove-
reign.
One of the officers of the House
hold Guards was heard to say that
they had enough arms and ammu-
milton to kill every haole in the
country.
Rep. Kaunamano stood on the
Palace steps on Saturday and
wanted the natives to murder Min
listers Parker and Colburn because
they did not support the revolution
airy scheme.

Government ana people of the United

it would not be an improbable thing
to believe that that Government
would refuse the use of the mails for
the transmission of such matter.

solemn decision held that the veto

FIRE BUGS.
Charles Bnchanan's Barn is Al
most Totally Destroyed.

From Daily, Jan. I'D
Shortly after u o'clock this
morning an alarm was rung in for
fire on the premises of Charles
Buchanan on Beretania street. 1t
turned out that the barn was
ablaze, and it was almost totally
destroyed before the department
arrived. Two horses which were
in the barn were rescued, but not
before they received scorching
from the flames. The fire is sup
posed to have been the act of an
incendiary.
Emma Square Receives Visit
This Morning.
The Fire Department was called
out again this morning shortly
after 3 o'clock for a small blaze in
lanai on the makai side of the
band stand in Emma Square. 1t
was without doubt the work of an
incendiary as between six or eight
natives were seen in the vicinity
of the spot by a resident a half
hour previous, who was on his way
home in the neighborhood. The
natives on seeing the resident ap-
proach ran into lane opposite the
Square. Half an hour later the
alarm was sounded. The damage
done was nominal.

You have my love, and with sorrow
now dismiss you.
Mr.. White replied, thanking the
Queen and assuring her of the love
of the people, and that they would
wait patiently until their desires
should be fulfilled, to which the
Queen responded with thanks, and
left the Throne Room.
Mr.. Kaunamano then began in
loud voice an inhammatory har-
angue which was suppressed. He
demanded the lives of the members
of the Cabinet who had opposed
the wishes of Her Majesty, and de-
clared that he thirsted for blood
shed.
A few moments later the Queen
went out upon the upper balcony
of the Palace and addressed the
crowd. She told them that on
account of the perfdy of her Min
listers she was unable to give them
the Constitution which she had
promised them, but that she would
take the earliest opportunity of
procuring it for them. (The crowd
then gave three cheers).
Rep. White then proceeded to
the steps of the Palace and began
an address. He told the crowd
that the Queen and the Cabinet
had betrayed them, and that in
stead of going home peaceably
they should go into the Palace and
kill and bury her. Attempts were
made to stop him which he re-
sisted, saying that he would
never close his mouth until
the new Constitution was granted.
Finally he yielded to the
expostulations of Col. Boyd and
others, threw up his hands and de-
clared that he was pau, for the
present. After this the audience
assembled dispersed.
News was brought to the citizens
down town that the attempt to
carry the revolution through had
for the moment failed. The meet
ing, however, approaching the fact
that the trouble had but just be-
gun, did not dispense, but con-
tinued the consideration of the
emergency. A Committee of Pub
lie Safety was formed, to which the
further consideration of the situa-
ton was delegated, after which the
meeting, which had been animated
by one heart and one soul from the
beginning, dispersed.

near the great fight of steps, and

The Revolution Deferred, Not
Abandoned.
(Reprinted.)

Saturday afternoon between 1
and 2 o'clock. the community was
startled by the information that a
coup d'etat was in progress, and
that the Queen was endeavoring to
force her Cabinet to sign new
Constitution which she then pro-
posed to promulgate Immediately
TO the people. The information
was at first disbelieved by some,
but it was speedily confirmed.
THE RUMoRs.
The political changes of the past
few days, the renewed vote of
Want of Confidence, the secret at
tempts made by the Queen to
secure the overthrow of her Minis
tiers, her secret interviews with
to a new Constitution. This was
felt by some to give hint as to
what was to be looked for in the
future, and many shared these
brebodings On Saturday morn
ing rumor was busy, and it was
freely stated that a new Constitu-
ton was to be promulgated in the
afternoon. At meeting of bust
ness men, held in the room of the
Chamber of Commerce, reference
was made to this possibility, but
still it was not generally believed
until in the afternoon the unex-
pected happened, and doubt was
transformed into certainty.
THE HISTORY.
Three days before the coup d'etat
was attempted, a gentleman who
enjoys the confidence of the Queen,
told one of the members of the
present Cabinet (who was then in
private station) that the blow was
to be struck, and that the persons
of the Ministers would be secured.
In the anticipation that the present
Cabinet would not make any re-
sistance to the revolutionary blow,
the precaution of arresting them
was not taken. Saturday morning
one of the Ministers received posi-
tive information that blow was to
be struck that afternoon. He i'm
mediately proceeded to consult two
prominent citizens on the course to
be taken. After q conference, the
gentlemen referred to advised the
Cabinet to refuse to sign new
Constitution and to decline to re-
sign, if their designations should
be demanded. The propagation of
the Legislature was the last chap
ter in the story of the morning.
It went off tamely and quietly
enough, but those who were az
auainted with the real situation
felt that the Government and the
nation were sleeping on the crest of
a volcano.

THE QUEENS SPEECH.

The Queen was a very angry
woman, when at 4 P. NJ. Saturday
she returned to the Throne Room
where were assembled the Hui Ka-
laiaina with most of the native
members of the Legislature, the
Cabinet, the Governor of Oahu,
the young Princes, Chief Justice
Judd and Mr.. Justice Bickerton,
the Staff, ladies of the Court, ka-
hill bearers, etc. She assembled the
dais and spoke substantially as
follows:
PRINCES, MOBILES AND REPRESENTA-
TIyEs:
| have listened to the thousands of
voices of my people that have come
to me, and I am prepared to grant
their request. The present Consti-
tuition is full of defects, as the Chief
Justice here will testify, as questions
regarding 1t have so often come be-
fore him for settlement. It is SO
faulty that l think a new one should
be granted. l have prepared one, in
which the rights of all have been re-
constitution suited to the
wishes of the people. l was ready
and expected to proclaim the new
to day, as a suitable &C.
casion for it, and thus satisfy the
wishes of my dear people But, with
deep regret, I say that / have met
with obstacles that prevent it. Re-
turn to your homes peaceably and
