HONOLULU, Nov. 22.-Since the ad-
vices by the schooner Transit, which
sailed three days ago, the eX-queen has
applied to the provisional government
for protection, claiming that she fears
violence from foreign residents. The
government at once granted her re-
quest, and detail of six police was at
once ordered by the marshal. They are
now guarding Washington place, three
watches of two men each.
In an interview with Attorney General
5 NTH it was learned that the govern
ment does not anticipate any present
political disturbance or any trouble
of any kind until the United
States is heard from OH the "contin-
gency' mentioned by Minister Willis
Even then. the attorney general said,
trouble is not anticipated unless
a determination had been reached to
restore the eX-Queen, which could not
at present be believed. As to the course
thus far pursued by Minister Willis.
the attorney general declined to express
any opinion beyond saying he thought
perhaps the American minister had
Deen rather unguarded i'll some of his
remarks concerning diplomatic affairs.
The Associated Press learned yeSter-
day directly from Washington place
that the eX-queen fully understands her
danger in case the United States should
restore her to power, and that she de-
clared to Minister Willis during her
vi 70 IL
would have to decline restoration unless
1t was granted her under the armed
protection of the United States. This
statement is written upon the very best
authority, and has been made by
THE EX-QUEEN
upon more than one occasion to others
than the United States minister.
The political strain continues to be
very great. The provisional govern
ment undoubtedly commands the stu
alton, and the marshal has matters so
arranged that it would be impossible
for an attack to be made upon the exec
utive building without half an hours
notice to the government forces. One
prominent gentleman reports Minister
Willis as saying that when he got ready
to act as executive officer of the United
States, there would be but two persons
in Hawaii notified, viz: The head of
the provisional government and the
head of the former government.
The theory of restoration has caused
considerable anxiety in government
circles. as such denouement would
cause immediate trouble. 1t is learned
after careful inquiry that one line of
official Investigation has developed the
fact that the eX-Queen shortly expects
the return of eX-Princess Kaiulani to
Honolulu from England. 1t is also
thought that Theodore IL. Davies comes
as her political agent to effect a COM
promise in case the United States finds
1t impracticabe or impossible to restore
the eX-queen, should such be the inten-
ton.
The theory is advanced that, should
President Cleveland be determined,
upon the restoration of the monarchy,
the eX-princess will be present to repre-.
sent the former government in case the
tX-queen is unavailable. 1t is also said
that in such event application viii be
made by the eX-Queen for
A LIFE PENSION
from the United States. It's said Kai-
nlani would appeal TO Great Britain in
case of trouble, if she secures the
throne.
Thu Associated Press is able to state
that the bill separating the offices of
the president of the provisional govern
ment and minister of foreign affairs will
be passed within a week, and that Hon.
+. 2. Hatch, prominent American
lawyer and member of the advisory
council, will be appointed minister of
foreign affairs. The appointment will
relieve President Dole of an amount of
work which his health will not permit
his continuing.
The Hawaiian Star recently reprinted
from San Francisco paper an article
charging ex-Marshal Wilson with en-
bezzlements and with having improper
relations with the queen. Thereupon
Wilson caused the arrest of Walter c.
Smith, an American editor of the Star,
for libel. That day in reporting the ar
rest Smith reaffirmed the charges and
announced that when the case came to
trial he would put the eX- queen on the
witness stand. The statement caused
great excitement, the royal party say
ing that they would revolt before they
would allow Lilioukalanl to be brought
into. court. Smith was arrested the
second time, but in his next issue re-
newed the charge. Wilson then threat
eued, in the presence of the marshal. TO
ASSASSINATE The EDITOR.
In the meantime the annexation party
raised large sum for the editors de-
