sation with Thurston upon what
the Queen had said to Peterson,
as the words that Thurston used
~ere never spoken in the Blue
Room. l never told Thurston
that kaluna had said he wanted
the blood of five white men if he
could establish newconstitution,
as knew nothing about "a new
constitution till Saturday morn

Thurston has the weakness to
say things when he thinks it will
fit the occasion best. And man
rbo has openly said what he has
SAID on the platform of a mass
meeting, that he would sleep
with the Devil if he could gain
his point, is illustrative of his
character and principle.
When Thurston wanted to con-
vert me into an annexationist he
wrote me a very friendly letter
from Washington, dated March
16, 1898, wherein he states, /
give you credit for acting as you
saw best in the interest of
Hawaii. At present Thurston
cannot see annexation staring the
country in the light he and his
psrty would like to have it. and
he has probably seen my full and

January II. 1893. so l take this
occasion with your indulgence to
relate what | did and said during
those memorable days. l will
also mention some things Mr..
Thurston said and did at the same
dates.
Thurston SAYS that on the 18th
Of January, at 10 o'clock | went
to him, greatly excited. and told
him of the Queens intention to
promulgate IA constitution and
asked his advice but he fails to say
what advice he gave me.
The facts are as follows: A
little after nine o'clock in the
morning of January 14th, after
my colleagues and l had returned
from the Palace. l learned from
them that it was the Queens in
tention to promulgate constitu-
ton after the Prorogation of the
Legislature. / Immediately called
my colleagues together and dis.
oassed the matter and we all
concluded that we would not
agree to any such PROPOSE
tion. Mr.. Parker went over to
the Queen to inform her that. if our
Information was correct, she
should abandon the idea. then
and there, as We would not cons Mt
to it. After Mr.. Parker eft us. /
came out of the Government Build
ing and went direct to Mr.. "A. 6.
Hartwell's office. | told Mr.. Hart
well what | had heard, and the dis
cussion the cabinet had had in
regard to the matter, the position
we had taken; and further said to
him, if the Queen insisted upon pro-
mitigating Constitution. / would
resign at once, as | did not take
a seat in the Cabinet pledged to any
such policy. | asked him to write
me out a resignation so that /
could have it ready in case ! should
need it. Mr.. Hartwell who has
always been friend of mine and an
occasional adviser. and who. one
hour before that, called upon the
Cabinet in the private office of the
Minister of the Interior, aud con-
graduated us upon our appoint
meut, said. 'have you any objec-
tions to my asking Thurston TO come
over and talk with us?n | replied
that ] did not, whereupon he went
to the telephone and rang up
Thurston, and asked him to come
over at once. Ia short time.
Therston appeared and narrated
my story over again. When I
finished. Taurst,a tipped his hat
on the back of his head. rubbed
his forehead and said: 4 don't
know what 10 do about this matter

you have a tremendous response

don't you resign or think of
1t under any consideration
because if You do. the Queen
will appoint another ministry at
once. and they would not hesi-
tate 10 countersigu. and acquiesce
in the PRONUNCIATION OF the same.
and before We know it the people
Of this country would have con
stitntion showed down their
throats. While we three were
talking. ". o Smith accidental
ly dropped in to the Office; Thurs
ton went on and said, Go to the
Queen at once andadvise her to
give up the idea. [ replied that
we had sent Mr.. Parker there,
but as yet bad not heard from
him. Thurston said, "you 60 and
tel her" [ replied that I could
not tell her at that particular
time. as she was dressing pre-
parttory to closing the Legis
latUre, he spoke rp and said
what difference does that make,

have to see her naked" ] refused,
whereupon he asked if Peterson

yes, be then asked if | would 90

at once | went after Mr.. Peter
son. Upon meeting him in the
Office of the Attorney General, l
told him about my conversation
with Hartwell. Thurstou, and
Smith, and informed him that
they would like to see him with
me- We Immediately repaired to
Hnrtwell's office, where the same
old story was gone through with
and the discussion was ended by
Thurston asking Peterson if he
would give his consent to have
him (Thurston) start out to see
what support he could get to
back the cabinet in the stand that
they would take against the pro-
mitigating of new constitution,
and not resign. We retired and
prepared for the Legislature
which was to close in half an
hour from that time. Upon our
leaving the Palace, l went
direct to Thurston's Office
to inform him of what had taken
place Re having become By tie
change of circumstances a CO.

good of all | did not find him
there, but later on did see
him standing in the Hall of the
government building. 1 invited
him into Mr.. Peterson's ONCE
and there we discussed the sub

Queen BY force and declaring the
throne vacaut, the United States

landed to virtually do the work.
