BAN Francisco. Nov. 1.-THE steamer Mon
evai which sailed to-day for Australia touch
ing at Honolulu. carried i'm portant dispatches
and letters from Washington for Minister Will
lis. These documents wero sealed in many
places and were treated like bags OF coin. Tho
moment they were taken aboard the vessel
tho purser locked them in q secret compart-
mont Of his big safe.
The wires have been kept hot all day trans
hitting long cipher messages from Washing
ton to Willis and to Commander Howison Of
Marc Island Navy Yard The dispatches to
Howlson are reported to refer to tho prepara-
ton OF vessels for any sudden call from Homo
lulu.
1t is also said that Howison will send Gov
ernment officers out in tug to- night with In
structions to receive tho dispatches for the
State Department which are expected on the
Australia. which is due to- night. so that they
may be put on the wires ahead Of all others. 1t
is also rumored that tho Australa's Captain
will get orders to cruise around outside the
heads. and not come In until to- m orrow. morn
ing. so that tho Government may have time to
act before the newspapers get the news.
The eayera norther which has bepn blowing
for eighteen hours has piled UP SO big sea
that it Is not thought the Australia will make
good time At noon to-day she was six days
out from Honolulu. provided she left on time.
She ought to reach here by daylight. Capt.
Howard, superintendent OF the Pacific Mail
Company disclaimed any knowledge OF orders
TO increase the Australia's speed on this trip.
but It 10 known from trustworthy source that
she did receive such orders.
WARRINGTON. Nov. lit will be q serious
disappointment to President Cleveland and
Secretary Gresham II the steamer from Homo
lulu. that is expected TO arrive a. San Fran
cisco to- night or to- borrow morning. does not
bring information to them that Minister Willis
has succeeded in his mission to restore Queen
Lilioukalani to the throne of Hawaii. Since
Nov. 10. whom President Cleveland publicly
announced bis Hawaiian policy by means OF
the letter addressed to him by Secretary Gresh-
an Q2teQ Dct- 10, the ADMINISTRATOR mas
felt confident that before mail steamer could
arrive from Honolulu. Minister Willis would
have successfully carried out his instructions.
A steamer has arrived. and while it brought
to tho Secretary OF State the information that
Minister Willis had not fully carried out his
programme. ir indicated that he would do SO
promptly upon the departure Of the steamer
China. which left Honolulu on the 18th inst
From the day OF the receipt Of that informa-
ton Secretary Gresham has appeared to be
dissatisfied with the course OF events.
aud his manner and words have given
rise to the impression that he fears
that Minister Willis will fall in his mis-
sion. Friends OF the Administration have
taken advantage OF the uncertainty with re-
gard to what has occurred in Honolulu since
the arrival OF Minister Willis 10 circulate tho
report that the Administration had not at any
time contem plated the use OF force II it should
fail in restoring the Queen by peaceful means
There Is every reason to believe. however. that
Minister Willis WAS instructed to carry out
the policy OF the Administration. and to call
upon Admiral Irwin in charge OF the naval
forces OF Honolulu. to assist him in case
OF necessity. The Admiral. moreover was
ordered by the Secretary OF the Navy to co.
operate with the Minister il called upon. Sec
rotary Gresham has confirmed this statement
In conversation with various gentlemen who
have visited him within the past few days.
some OF whom called at his request to talk
over the situation with regard to possible fu-
ture legislation by Congress. II. therefore. 1t
should be developed hereafter that Minister
Willis does not now understand that he is au-
thorized to call upon Admiral Irwin for
assistance In restoring tho Queen to the
throne. 1t is undoubtedly because he has re-
ceved supplemental instructions in answer to
his despatch brought here by the steamer
China on the 18th inst.
The visit OF Senator Morgan to the State De-
partment yesterday gave rise to the report
that he was called in by the Administration to
help 1t out OF hole. Senator Morgan said to
The Sun reporter tonight that he called at
Secretary Gresham's invitation, to consider
certain features Of the Behring Sea regula-
tiors which were being drawn up and that
nothing was said about Hawaii.
There Is no reason why judge Gresham
should call ne In to give advice on this ques-
ton" said tho Senator. and was not at the
department to discuss the subject at all. /

care to discuss 1t until know more. 1t would
not be proper for me. In my position as Chair

been assured in positive terms that there was
NO intention on the part Of the Administration
to any resort OF arms and that the naval force
would not be called upon to seat tho Queen.
The Senator denies this absolutely.
There appears now to DO little reason to
doubt that the Administration intends to ac-
complain its purpose by whatever means are
found to be necessary. The Hawaiian Legation
here 90 understands the case. and go do others
who are In position to know the intentions OF
the party in power. Minister Thurston
has had two or three informal talks with Sec
rotary Gresham within the past week. and
has learned that Minister Willis's instructions
were OF the most sweeping character He
learned with surprise that 1t 10 the intention
OF the Administration to withdraw its support
from the Queen as soon as she is restored, and
leave her to get along by herself as best she
can. 1t Is the understanding. also. OF the Of
