UNEASY OVER HAWAII.
Cleveland He. Miseivinss.

Washington, April 25.-Hawaif Is the
nightmare of the administration. There
is ill concealed nervousness in ;n,icial
circles over the news which the next
steamer may bring. 1t may he that the
president and secretary of state are still
satisfied, but everybody else connected
with the administration would feel hap
pier II the stars and stripes were still
flying. There also are very decided mis-
givings Us to Mr.. Blount's capacity for
so important mission. The powers of
special commissioner or agent of the
state department are much broader than
is generally supposed. They were exer-
ciscd by agents of President Lincoln
during the war; they were exercised on
delicate missions before that time, and
since. But the almost unbroken prece-
dent has been that these special agents
were not clothed with executive author
ity, which would make them superior to
diplomatic officers nominated by the pres
ident and confirmed by the senate. 1t
smacks of executive usurpation for the
president to go outside the constitution
and send special commissioner with
powers superior to those of IL diplomatic
officer of the government. regularly nomi-
mated aud confirmed by the senate. The
presidents letter. in which he described
Mr.. Blount as My special commission
err and declared his authority para
mount, is proving IL good deal of
boomerang. An ambassador has to be
confirmed by the senate. and Blount is
not an ambassador, but merely "My spec
ial commissioner" Under these circum-
- -, L.,
dent and the secretary of state find the
ground on which they will stand in justi-
flying the clothing of Special Commission
er Blount with powers paramount to
Minister Stevens. The minister was in
reality superseded in all his functions.
He Is coming home next month, but he
might just as we'll have left the day
Special Commissioner Blount arrived.
Under the construction of the president
1t will not be necessary to name the sue
cessor to Minister Stevens so long as
BlOunt is on the islands, because the
special commissioner is given powers
paramount to the minister
Commissioner Carter. representing tile
Hawwa,..l provisional government III
this country for The past two months,
called upon Secretary Gresham today
and notified him that he had received
the permission of his government to re-
turn, and that in pursuance of that PER-
mission he would start for San Fran
cisco tomorrow and snil OH the Belgic
May 4. Subsequently Mr.. Carter said
that he had IL very pleasant interview
with Secretary Gresham, but that it had
no political significance. The situation
in Hawaii was quiet, and Mr. Garter
said that he assumed that the secretary
was awaiting definite ;ldviccs from Com
missioner Blount before any further steps
should bc taken.

of the big inclining iluc connecting with
the 1O-foot smokestack al the copper

to search for the remains of the ill fated
furnaceman, who disappeared very mys-
teriously April 3. When last seen he
went into one of the rotary roas,ers from
which the fire had been drawn, intending
to remove the Stag from its sides. From
evidence adduced at the coroncrs inquest
held to-day it seems that he was slight
ly intoxicated when he went into the fur
mace. The supposition is that he fell
asleep, and on awakening was so be-
wildered that instead of leaving the fur
mace by the way he entered he crawled
through the intake and fell into the tlucs.
There he must have been instantly as
phyxiated by the terrible heat and deadly
gases coming from the other furnaces.
