several speeches were made to the effect
that IL was the employment agencies OF
Butte that kept wages SO low for working
women and girls. II. L. swenson. pro-
prietor of tho Peoples Employment

matter:
ave never have II any time suggested
that less wages should be- paid and IL
charges of this kind are made gc are en-
,trc!y innocent of the blame. ! do not
know what other agencies do regarding
wages. but such statements are certainly
untrue as regards our agency. Hard
times is the proper element to blame for .
fall in wages. Employers are compelled
to govern their expense according to their
income and employees and employers alike
have to suffer under existing conditions.

EXTENT OF HIS ORDERS
lmprobability That Willis Had Carte
Blanche to Uie Porca
1T WOULD HAVE BEEN WAR
u ths Provisional Government
Refused to Yield He Had Moth
Ing to Do But Await
Instructions.


chief fear Of the friends of the provisional
government of Hawaii IN this country that
in its ignorance of public sentiment
here and at the first shock Of threatened
action by the United States, Il would yield
its authority. The fact is, however, that
for some time past the provisional gov-
ernment abandoned all hope of favorable
ward annexation and has been consider
ing means to put itself ON permanent
footing. 1t may be the public and press
have come to wrong conclusion as to the
extent of Minister Willis instructions.
They sup posed that Secretary Gresham's
letter, declaring what no thought should
be done, and President Clevelan's declara-
tion That he agreed with the secrctary's
opinions, meant that they were deter
mined to proceed accordingly. Yet some
people believe that the publication must
have been intended as an appeal to public
opinion for information as to tho course
TO pursue.
1t is considered that the chances OF ac-
tion by Minister Willis to restore the
queen will be much lessened after the
news of the reception accorded Secretary
Gresham's letter IN this country has been
read in the islands. The first news of
Secretary Gresham's letter ought TO reach
Honolulu by the steamer which left Van
couver Thursday or on the one that left
san Francisco Friday, but last Sunday or
Monday o chartered steamer left San
Francisco for Honolulu, having on board
newspaper men and doubtless also some
communication from Minister Thurstou
TO his coyernment. This chartered

or to-rnorrow. This would be after the
next steamer tn arrive nj San Francisco
sailed from Honolulu.
A promnent democratic senator, a
member of the foreign relations commit-
tee. who declined TO permit the use of his
name. said Tonight: "It seems very clear
to me that Willis has encountered a state
of affairs which he had not been led 10
suspect. The inference is justified that
Minister Willis discovered the feelings of
the intelligent people of the islands favor
able to the present government, and
weakened in tho determination TO reseat
the queen. IL indeed the Dole admin
tration displayed q determination to
maintain its position by force
of arms, there was nothing
for Willis to do but to change
his plans and ask for further instructions.
To have persisted i'm landing marines for
the purpose of forcing a change of Coy-
crnmcnt would have been an act OF war
pure and simple. and no sane man can
believe that President Cleveland ever
