FEARS FOR HER SAFETY.
Liliuokalani Asks for Protection of
Minister Willis.

J. B. Atherton, manager for the house of
Castle g. Cooke of Honolulu, is at present
visiting in this city, and yesterday he re-
ceived from Mr.. Castle a letter which
throws some light on the political situa-
ton. Tile writer is a member of the Ad.
visory Council of the Provisional Govern
ment, and therefore knows the inside of
affairs of state. In his letter to Mr.. Ath-
erton he says:
'You will doubtless be Informed by
press dispatches that the ex-Queen called
upon United States Minister Willis last
Monday. AS to the subject under discus
sion nothing was made public, bu, the
Minister has informed the Government
that the ex-Queen stated to him that she
feared for her life and wished the protec-
zion of American marines. This he re-
fused her. and recommended that she ap-
peal to the Government. She declined to
accept his suggestion. This act demon
strates to us that the American Minister
believes we are masters eff the situation"
Mr.. Atherton then said: when l read
in last Sundays CALL that the Provisional
Government had resolved to deport
Liliuokalani in case the United States in
sisted upon restoring her to power l
realized that President Dole and Cabinet
were carrying out policy they had dis
cusspd before l left the islands. This of
course is the hitch in the programme to
which Minister Willis refers. aud he must
wait until he has further instructions. |
expect to return to Honolulu by the Aus
tralia on Saturday. and l am convinced
that upon arrival there will find the Pro-
visional Government still in power.
Moreover. L have no doubt but that they
will remain in power until the islands are
annexed by this country"
Hawaiian Consul Wilder was busy with
his mail yesterday. He said he had re-
ceived no other news than that contained
in the press dispatches, but he was con-
vinced that the hitch in Minister Willis
action was due to the threat of dep0rting
the Oueen.

CLEvELAND's CONSOLATION.
He Believes That Americans Will
Yet Sustain His Policy.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 23.-Secretary Gres-
ham received cipher message this after
noon from Minister Willis giving CON-
plete report Of the Hawaiian situation up
to the time Of the departure of the Ala
media. AS to the exact contents of the
message no one outside of the President
and his Cabinet knows. but the fact that it
was received is given out, however, and it
is also announced that its contents are
highly satisfactory.
This is interpreted by officials outside of
the Cabinet to mean that Willis has COM
pleted all arrangements for the restoration
of Liliuokalani to the Hawaiian throne,
and 1t is also claimed that should Minister
Willis continue to be as successful in car
rying out his instructions as he has been
up to the day the Alameda sailed a vast
majority Of Americans will take sides with
the President and sustain bim in the course
he has pursued when they become ap-
prised of the facts.

AN UGLY COMPLICATION.
How the President Will Be Thwarted
hX CONGRESS-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-The failure of
a second steamer from Honolulu to bring
news of the restoration of the monarchy
by Minister Willis has added, If anything,
10 the perplexities aud chagrin in which
the President and Secretary Gresham have
been plunged ever since the first disclosure
of their unpopular and discredltable Ha-
waiian policy.
Taught by their experiences ten days
ago to conceal their real feelings and ex-
pectations, the administration officiass
sedulously denied having any hopes OF
hearing by ro-day's mail Of the successful
execution Of the furtive plot for the over
throw of the Provisional Government and
the restoration OF the power of the corrupt
and dissOlute Queen.
Their former predictions that Liliuoka-
lani would be back upon her throne
within twenty-four hours after Minister
Willis landed at Honolulu have been care
fully withdrawn and repudlated, and the
impression is sought to be given at the
State Department not only that Willis
unexplained inaction had been fully an
tTcipated, but that it had been authorized
in the Presidents original instructions to
his outgoing diplomatic agent.
Beneath all this effort to make Willis
failure TO upset the Provisional Govern
ment and TO restore the Queen to "her
own" harmonic with the earlier and more
frankly expressed anticpatiOns of a sud-
den and forcible coup d'etat, the real
worry of Secretary Gresham and his sub
ordinates is clearly visible.
The gap OF nearly twenty days which is
expected 10 intervene between to-day's
mail and the next reaching San Francisco
from the islands will! carry the public
announcement here of the administra-
tion's decisive stroke in behalf Of the Ha-
waiian monarchy we'll into the second
week of the regular session of Congress.
Such postuoDement is felt to be unfor-
tunate in every way for the President and
his Secretary of State. for with an indip-
Dant public opinion behind 1t Congress is
sure to institute searching inquiry into
all vagaries Of the Quixotic and un-Amrr-
lean policy secretly embarked upon by
the administration with the conDivance of
rOyalist and foreign interests in Hawaii.
To have the coup d'etat delayed till Con-
gress gathers and begins to take steps to
thwart the administrations policy will
prove beyond question the most embar-
RAISING hindrance to the authors OF the
restoration programme. if 1t does not
actually make its final success q political
and diplomatic impossibility.
The Alameda brought no news for Min
lister Thurstou important enough to be
telegraphed across the continent. He re-
ceived his information to-day about the
quiet OF state affairs In Honolulu from the
newspaper men. who have kept him in
formed Of facts which come their way.
He thinks that there may be some news
from Hawaii by way of Auckland, or pos.
sibly from Japan, before the next ship
reaches San Francisco, and this would
bring the first intimaton of how Gresham's
letter was received possibly four DAYS
ahead of the American mail.

having business interests on the islands,
and the feeling of the annexatlonlsts was
made public yesterday through the medium
of the Star in an article headed Time for
a Response" 1t reads:
1t Is now over ten months since the Pro-
visOnai Government Of The Hawaiian Islands
asked the American Government fair Ques-
ti0n. and yet there has been no answer.
For nearly a year, and for no obvious
cause, the people OF these islands have been
kept In state of SUSPENSE, which has been and
is yet detrimental TO business and immigration.
What our authorities wanted 10 know was
whether the United States would or would not
accept the Hawaiian group as gift and bring
it into the American system. 1t ought not to
have taken The Washington Government more
than four months TO say yes or nO.even IL it first
had to obtain all needed knowledge OF the sit
uatlon here to base an answer upon. Indeed
three months would have been ample; and vet
President Cleveland has yet uttered no public
word, and his Ministers here have induged
themselves in Delphic oracles from which both
parties have derived some measure of encour-
agement. Even the coming of Minister Willis
has not thrown any light upon the matter Of
annexation.
We submit that this reticent policy on the
part of The United States has been and is unfair
and unjust TO the Government and people and
especially TO the American interests in these
islands-interests that have a right to look to
Washington for ready ear and helpful hand.
We submit that every day which Is allowed 10
pass without the announcement of Mr.. Cleve-
lands poiicy is a day which adds to the sense
OF injury under which all the people OF Hawaii
are smarting.
Let us have the end of this business soon.
That is the common hope of rOyalist and an
nekaiionist alike
That same afternoon the following
words appeared also in that newspaper:
Vigilance and dry powder are the two great
essentials now in the camp of the revolutionary
forces. Everybody knows thar IL the Royalists
could capture the seat OF Government and hold
IL for an hour tiey would have restored the
throne. That Is great temptation TO them
one that becomes greater as each day passes.
The danger may be said TO increase In ratio
with their protests that they mean no violence.
Hence the conclusion that now, If ever, The
army ana the citizens should be watchful, sus-
piciOus aud above ali be ready to act decislvely.
That status assured and The Royalist parry
complete ana terrible than any they have
deemed possible IN community the past reyO-
Iutions OF which have been attended By so little
blo0dshed Fellow neXatIonsts, be on your
guard and there will be no restoration
This language shows the attitude of
those who favor the Provisional Govern
ment.

HONOLULU, Nov. 16.-United States
Minister Willis stated to THE CALI, cor.
respondent this morning that nothing fur.
ther in relation to Mr.. Cleveland's policy
: toward these islands will be known until
four or five weeks from to-day. He states
that contingencies have arisen regarding
81 awaiiaD affairs since bis arrival here

ceeding any further in carrying out his
original Instructions he has used his dis

gencies. He declined to state what they
are or what his instructions are.
For several days past there have been
rumors of threatened royalist uprising,
and every DAY this week has been set for
the ex-Queen's restoration. Extra guards
have been placed on Government build

Another steamer from Honolulu, and
no news of the restoration of Llluokalani
or even an attempt thereat. But the news
that has come shows that President Cleve-

action Of the Provisional Government of
the Hawaiian Islands, and bears out the
story published exclusively in THE CALL
last Sunday to the effect that. should the
American administration persist in its un-
American policy OF bolstering up a mon
archy, the ex-Queen would be deported.
1t will be remembered that the article
referred to consisted of an interview with
Henry w. Severance. who was Consul
General at Honolulu during President
Harrison's administration. His we'll
known friendship for the cause of annex
alton and his intimacy with President
Dole and members of the latter's Cabinet
gave great weight to his words.
significant interview had with Judge
Dele last February bears directly upon
this question. He was asked what the
Provisional Government would do should
the United States favor the restoration of
the Queen.
Suppose" said he. "we should order
her deported. What then could the
American Government do?"
The ne.ss Il tom Hon olulu yesterday is to
f'7e'o enee THAT "Mr. Cleveland's policy
ward tose islands will not be made known
GU or five weeks. Mr.. Willis states
: eostingencies have arise regarding
allan afairs since his arrival which
were no. provided for in his instructions"
These wo rds would seem ambiguous ex-
cept for tSe light THE CALL has thrown on
the situation. The interview with Mr..
Severance compiled with subsequent events
shows clearly that Minister Willis has
been warned that ex-Queen Liliuokalani
will be deported if the United States per-
ssts in its policy. Or course the Minister
had communicated the wishes of President
Cleveland to President Dole and had re-
ceived his reply.
What THE CALL last Sunday said would
happen has undoubtedly come to pass. and
now Mr.. Cleveland is confronted with
puzzling proposition.
In view of the statements of Secretary
Gresham and of the inspired Washington
dispatches, which have boldly stated that
by this time the Queen is restored" 1t is
evident the administration has been placed

An Outline of the Provisions of

The Protection Principle Has Not
Been Discarded Altogether,
it Would Appear.

New YORK, Nov. 23-The Harald's
Washington correspondent claims to give
an accurate outline of the new tariff bill
so far as it has been determined. These
are the most salient points of reform:
The free list is to include nearly all the
raw and crude materials which enter into
manufacturing, oils. the hair of camelS
and goats, bituminous coal, iron ore. lum-
Der. salt. silver. lead ore. fax, hemp and
Jute and large number of chemicals ara
all to be free. Woolen and linen
manufacturers will get the bepe-
ut OF an extension of time from
three to six months, to work finished
products. Steel rails will probably be put
at SS or 50 ton. Pig iron is to be put at
per cent ad valorem. and bar iron is to
be reduced at least so per cent. Tin plate
will be charged L cent pound.
The specific duties on cutlery are abol-
ished and an ad valorem duty substituted.
Block tin and copper ore are on the free
list.
There is uniform ad valorem durv
upon finished manufactures of wood. bnt
logs are free. The committee belieyas
that reduction of or 10 per cent in
silk duties will yield as much revenue as
now.
Woolen goods follow the rates of the
Springer bill, but some cheaper goods will
be put in the separate class at so per cent
All manufactures of cotton are at 30 per
cent. manufactured fax, hemp and jute t.
be greatly reduced
In view of the placing of raw material
on the free list. binding twine will no,
likely be made free.
The high duties on agricultural products
will be mercilessly slaughtered A DUTY
is retained on lemons and oranges. but
several other fruits 90 upon the free list.
The wrapper-tobacco duty will be re-
duced to 81 or 81 so per pound when un.
stemmed and 30 cents more pound when
stemmed. There is an ad valorem rate Of
% per cent on all grades of sugar, although
this question is still open.
The duty on gloves is reduced, and there
is no increase Cd beer. tobacco or cigars.
but charge on whisky.
The proposed duty on sugar will bring in
about $50, 600, ,O00 and it is thought that
some S30.0O0.O00 or $40. 900 will be re-
celved from the increase on whisky and

OF the foreign powers.
Brazilian officials are much fncensed at
the attitude of the British Minister. Peix-

all citizens to take UP arms in defense of
their fatherland. Nictheroy was shelled
all night on the 18th. aud the Government
forces were compelled to retire from the
