PROTEST FROM HAWAII
The Queens Minister of Inter
ior Presents Her Case.
ASKS JUSTICE OF THE UNITED STATES

Alleged That the Provisional Govern
ment and Our Minister Have Done
wronG-The People Are with the Queen
Senator NIorgan's Annexation Bill.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. ga letter has been
received here from John F. Colburn, Min
lister of the Interior of Hawaii, in which
he outlines the position of the deposed
Queen, of whom he is supporter. The
letter is addressed to j. H. GAM of this
city, whose wife is an aunt of Mr.. Col
burn, and is in part as follows:
''In view of the circumstances that
surround the situation of this, our Ha-
waiian Kingdom, 1 take the opportunity
of writing you this letter, trusting, with
your ability and influence with some of
the leading statesmen Of your liberal
American country, you can help to place
the situation of affairs in this country in
such an impartial manner to them that
the Hawaiian Queen. Liluoka lani, her
government and her native population
can receive such a hearing from your
government that the American nation
will cause to be restored the Queen to her
throne, the government to its power,
and the Hawaiian native population to
their rights"
Mr.. Colburn details the occurrences
leading to the revolution substantially
as already known. He then says, in
connection with the abandonment of
the Queen of her purpose to force a new
constitution, speaking of the Reform
party:
This party was not satisfied with
this, but they, with the assistance of the
American Minister and the troops of the
TTnifa1 tint Of ROSfnn anliafaH n
number of men to the extent of 200, and,
aided by the American troops, took pos
session and declared by proclamation a
provisional government, contrary to the
constitution now in force and contrary to
the rights of 100, 900 people-the popula-
ton of this country.
'The Cabinet notified the American
| Minister of what had happened, and
asked him to assist this duly authorized
government to suppress this revolt, or, If
he did not want to do that, then to re-
move the United States troops on board
the Boston, and we, the government,
could do it ourselves.
"When we told him we had 700 men
un Ter arms, and were equal to the situa-
| ton, his reply was that he acknowledged
ths provisional government and would
support it.
This action on the part of the Ameri-
can Minister is degrading. He has up
held u mob and does SO against the
wishes of the aborigines, who are capable
of taking care of themselves,
The Hawaiian people are wailing for
| the loss of their country. Cannot
America, "the land of the free and the
home of the brave" undo the great
wrong that she, by her troops and en-
bassadors, assisted to do? Will you use
your influence for us? Act promptly and
may God assist you and help you. Yours
with consideration and respect,
JOHN f. CoLBURN,
Minister of the Interior
The letter has been forwarded to Presi
| dent Harrison by Mr.. CAM.

PARIS, Feb. 9.-The press is almost
unanimous in attacking the government
for having let the big Panama swindlers
escape and trying to satisfy the demands
Of the people by the prosecution of
smaller offenders.
The hesitating attitude of the govern
ment is described as criminally weak and
dishonest.
Everything shows that the Cabinet is
greatly weakened. NJ. Bourgeois is be-
lieved to be on the point of resigning,
while Cavaignac is expected to succeed
to nj. Ribot's place.
1t was rumored this morning that the
Cabinet had resolved to resign and to
recommend to President Carnot that he
summon NJ. Cavaignac to form Min
istry.
Inquiry at authoritative sources elected
neither confirmation nor denial. Should
Cavaignac consent to form Ministry he
would probably select as colleagues men
who are not in the present Ministry.
1t is believed, however, that Cav
aignac's ambition is to succeed Carnot,
and that he would therefore refuse the
Premiership.
His enthusiastic friends recall that
while at college Cavaignac refused to r e.
ceive prize from the hands of the Prince
Imperial, thus illustrating his hatred of
| monarchical institutions.

SECRETARY GIBSON ACCUSED.
Sensational Hearing Before the Whisky
Trust Investigating Committee.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 0.-The hearing be-
fore the special House Whisky Trust
Committee was most sensational.
United States Gauger Dewar was the
only-witness. He told his story quietly
and calmly.
Mr.. Dewar began his testimony by de-
failing how he had been offered brides by
the Distilling and Cattle Feeding Com
pany, known as the Whisky Trust. Mr..
Dewar, who was a gauger in 1890, and
stationed at Chicago, detailed how in
room No. S5 of the Grand Pacific hotel he
met Secretary Gibson, of the Whisky
Trust, who offered to take him into the
employment of the trust. Dewar was to
receive SIC, 900 cash and enough more in
cash or stock of the trust to am cunt of
$25, 900.
Dewar testified that he was acting un-
der instructions from the revenue officers
to pretend to act as a tool for the trust.
He then related with the most minute
detail the work Gibson wanted him to
accomplish.
The testimony in this respect was
startling. Dewar stated that Gibson
showed him an internal machine which
he (Gibson) wanted witness to use in a
rival whisky warehouse.
The machine was to be placed under
the stills of this rival company to ex-
plode them. Mr.. Dewar described the
machine as having three fuses, loaded
| with bullets and oakum.
Mr.. Dewar's testimony was read from
| notes and data. He described in full
how Gibson told him to place the ma,
chimes under the spirit tanks and leave
| them to do their deadly work. They
| were expected to explode three hours
after being set. He was then to meet
Gibson at Bloomington, Ill, where Glib
son said he would have the 'stuff."
Gibson carefully placed one of the in
fernal machines, Of the size of an oyster
can, in Dewar's overcoat pocket.
Dewar, having secured the possession
of the machine, closed all association
with Gibson and was ordered away from
Chicago.
This is the first time his testimony has
been given. One of the witnesses, who
was present but not examined, carried 6
large valise, in which it is understood
was the identical Internal machine.
The deadly machine will be shown tc
the committee probably to-day, and Mr..
Denver will most likely proceed with fur.
