WASHINGTON, ID. c., February o.
A sensation was caused here tonight by
the disclosure OF the fact that a new
issue Of bonds was TO be made at once
by the Secretary OF the Treasury.
While the possibility OF this being
done has been discussed at times In the
last few months. little serious attention
was given TO the subject and IL was not
considered probable the expedient would
have 10 be resOrted TO.
IL now appears, however, that the ad-
ministration regards the financial con-
dition OF the Treasury so serious that
immediate measures must be taken TO
replenish the cash vaults whith the Re-
publican eXtravagance have diminished.
The stock OF gold has fallen danger
ously low in the last month, and the
situation was aggravated and con-
tidence further shaken by the refusal OF
Congress 10 repeal the sherman silver
purchase act.
THE ORDINARY INCOME
OF the government was not sufficient 10
meet the expenditures entailed by the
wild legislation OF the Reed Congress,
aud so the government, as last desper-
ate resort, is compelled 20 borrow money
in order TO meet it's obligations aud
avert a panic.
All the arrangements for making tho
bond issue have been kept secret until
to-day, as the administration has
plainly hoped up 10 the last moment
that IL would be able to struggle along
somehow until the 4th OF March, when
1t would Shift tho responsibility onto
the shoulders Of the Democrats, but ad-
verse circumstances have compelled
the Republicans TO disclose that they
have bankrupted the treasury which
the Democrats turned over 10 them In
1889 full TO OVERLOOKING.
1t is understood the total amount OF
the issue OF bonds which Foster con-
templates will be
TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS, -
OF which $50, 900. 600 will be sold at
once.
They will. Il seems, have TO bear in
terest at 4 per cent under the law by
whose authority the Secretary claims
the right to act.
1t should be stated that conservative
Democrats question the right OF Secre-
tary Foster 10 issue bonds without
special permission from Congress.
The Secretary claims this right, how
ever. under the terms OF the specie re-
sumption act.
The matter will cause pig sensation
when II is made known generally, and
heated discussion Is likely TO follow in
Congress.

HONOLULU, February 1.-SlnCe the

Anal government matters have been

o await the decision Of the United

Today, however, are that there is dis
sensiOn existing amongst the members

quest has been made 70 the Hawaiian
Minister TO take full control pending

Martial law still exists, and although

WASHINGTON, d. c., February o.
This evening Mr.. Lorrin A. Thurston,
with the consent and approval Of his as
sOciate commissioners, made the follow
ing statement in reply 10 the letter from
]. T. COlburn, eX-MiniSter OF the Ihte-
rior Of the Hawaiian Cabinet, published
in the papers to-day.
IL has been claimed by and on behalf
Of Queen LiliuOkalini that the late Ha-
waiien government yielded 10 the force
Of the United States when she Surren-
dered 10 the Hawaiian provisional gov
ernment, and the claim has been applied
in some of the papers into a charge that
the whole movement was preconcerted
conspiracy in favor Of annexation.
This statement has already been de-
MED By the Commissioners, but as It is
reiterated this morning in the letter
written by J. I. COlburn, the late Min
lister OF the Interior. l think a more
specific denial, seeting forth the cir
cumstances, should be made.
In the first place the undlsputed facts
show that no action was taken by any
body until the 14th OF January, after
