THE QUEENS ADVISORS.
Admiral Brown Thinks They Were Dis
Ioyahto Her.

IoyahtO Her.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 14.-Admiral
Brown, United States navy, who is visit
ing in this city after his return from
Hawaii in command of the Pacific squad
ron, today received about dozen letters
from Honolulu, dated Feb 1st, two weeks
after the provisional government was es-
tablished. He says: "The letters serve
to make the whole question OF the recent
revolution of Hawaii clear to me, coming
as they do from both Americans and
Hawaiians It is evident to my mind that
the only people in Hawaii who oppose an
nexation to the United States are Queen
Liliuokalani, ministers of the royal FAM
ily, two members of the last cabinet and
some natives who lost all hope of political
preferment.
The question of annexation has been
discussed in the islands for the last two
or three years. The desire for annexation
has spread rapidly during the last year,
and the only question at all in doubt was
as to how it could be brought about.
The oldest men recognized that the United
States could not well encourage or sup
port any government looking towards an
nexation until there is radical change
| in the form of government. While many
plans for bringing about desired change
| from the constitutional monarchy was
discussed, nothing definite was agreed

Home Rule Measure.
LONDON, Feb. 14.-In the commons to-
dav Lord George Hamilton asked Glad
stone when he proposed to introduce
bill dealing with Irish land tenure. Glad
tone declined to commit the government
to any pledge to introduce a land bill.
BaIfour then, amid loud Unionist cheers,
began his reply to Gladstone's speech
last evening. He said: The house, first
of all. has the right to inquire why any
bill, good or bad, is required. The prime
minister must see that bill Of this mag
nitude is hardly justified by any condi-
ton of affairs like that from which the
necessity crimes act arose. 1t is criminal
to attempt to set in Ireland a legislature
practically independent OF the imperial
parliament. Ulster at least deserved ex-
ceptionaI treatment, for which no pro-
vision appeared in the BILL Balfour con-
tended that the plan outlined Tor dealing
with the constabulary with civil service
government would certainly lead to the
infiiction OF great hardships-

One Being Fitted Out in Florida to Go to
Honduras.
New YORK, Feb. IA local paper
viii say in the morning: A piratical ex
petition against one of the Central Amer
lean states is being fitted out at Key
West, Fla, by Cuban and American
company. The flibusterers will be grad
ually augmented at Florida seaports until
several hundred fighting men, armed
with repeating rifle and abundant am
munition, are ready to embark on the
expedition. 1t is said a small steamer
was chartered at northern port and is
now en- route to Key West, where it is ex-
pected to arrive today. The hold is well
ballasted with cannon, GatIing guns and
field artillery sufficiently formidable
when in desperate hands to make war
against the government of Honduras.
The United States Steamship Kearsage
dropped anchor at Key West yesterday
much to the surprise of every enc in
town, and it is believed she was ordered
there to prevent the pirates from setting

upon. At one time it appeared as if the
queen would consent to change of the
form OF government provided she and
other members of the royal family could
be literally pensioned.
She was so badly advised when she on
the 18th of January SO far forgot her oath
OF Office as to resort to unconstitutional
methods and declare she would promul-
gate new constitution, l cannot but
think her advisors were disloyal to her
and had in view the conditions which
followed so closely. The queen became a
revolutionist, and had she not been
checked and dethroned she would have
made herself absolute, and the CONNER
cial interests of all foreign interests
would have been jeopardized. The opium
and lottery advocates would be large
gamers and the profits had complete con-
troll of the islands by reason of their
money power.

The Dixon Men submit Proposition to

The Dixon Men submit a Proposition to
the Clark Faction.
HELENA, Mon, Feb. 14.-[Special. i
The vote for senator today resulted in no
choice, neither were there any surprises.
Nate last night the Daily balloting Demo-
Gratis held a caucus and prepared an ad-
dress to the Clark regulars, which was
endorsed by Judge Dixon, for whom the
Daily men have been voting. In the
course of the address they say:
''Our preference has been and is for
Mr.. Dixon and we have stood by him
faithfully. but we do not believe that he
or any other one man should stand in the
way of Democratic success, and he does
not desire to do so. We have his as
Ssurance to this effect, and his promise to
withdraw Internationally and absolutely
from the contest if Mr.. W. a. Clark Will
do the same. We desire to be frank in
TIE statement of our position. We will
not, under any circumstances, vote for
Mr.. w. A. Clark for senator.
''If, however, any other Democrat can
be agreed upon between you and our
selves, and Mr. Clark viii withdraw abso-
lutely and Internationally from the race
Mr.. Dixon viii do the same and we will
vote for such Democrat and do all within
our power to secure his election as sena-
tor. We request you to suggest the
names of one or more candidates aside
from Mr.. Clark, whom you are willing to
support. We wish, however, to have it
distinctly understood that so long as the
Populist members of the house continue
to act with US they are to have a voice in
the selection of candidate
The Clark men have made no formal re-
ply, but they declare that Clark is the
regular party nominee and should not
withdraw until he has had the votes of all
the Democratic members. 1t is quite
likely they will stand pat on that propo-

BOISE, Ida, Feb. 14.-[special. I'm
the senate the boiler inspector bill was
passed, as was memorial to Congress
asking the opening to settlement of the
Fort Hall Indian reservation. The senate
refused to consider the house resolution
providing for the appointment of BIZ
metallic league delegation.
The house refused to concur in amend
me nts Of the Story snti-Mormon test oath
amendments providing for special cleo
tions in the newly created counties and
don't take away the power of the governor
to appoint officers. The Republicans of
the house say they favor relief to the Nor
mons, but want the measure to stand
alone. Bills were, during the day, intro
duced in both houses the same as the
original and test oath bill.
The house passed a number of bills, one
providing for the establishment of an in
dustrial home for orphan children. Both
houses passed a memorial asking Con-
gress to take speedy action in the matter
of authorizing resuryey of the Ceur

tiers have commenced improvements on
the land, to which at present they can ac-
ouire no title.

THE HOUSE.
Filibustering Methods Adopted on the In
valid Pension Bill.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE House
again engaged in filibustering over limit
ing debate on the invalid pension bill.
Again the Democrats were obliged to yield
to the Republican demand that six hours
debate be accorded the minority, and it
was agreed that general debate should
close tomorrow at p. m.
The House then resumed consideration
of the pension bill.
During the filibustering Mr.. Hatch gave
notice that he had waited patiently for
the passage of the appropriations bill, but
unless they We're disposed of in reasona-
bic time he would press his anti-option
bill, as it was revenue measure which
would give it precedence over others and
the latter would have to fight for position.
The debate on the pension bill was pro-
longed by mountaineering debate, and
without disposing of the measure the
committee rose and the House adjourned.

mission to Congress.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The annexa-
ton commission visited the secretary Of
state today, but nothing OF Importance
occurred. 1t is understood the commits
sioners are anxious that the annexation
treaty should not be sent to Congress to-
day. Their reason being that its text or
substance might become public before
the sailing of the steamer from San Fran
cisco for Honolulu tomorrow and thus it
might be reviewed for the Hawaiian peo-
pie in incorrect form. The commission
ers wish to take the treaty to Honolulu
themselves, SO they may be on the ground
to defend its provisions and insist on its
adoption by the new government. Their
fears that it would go to Congress today,
however, were set at rest by information
impaired to them officially that the treaty
would not be transmitted before the sail
ing of the steamer from San Francisco.

A FLOUR TRUST.
The Deal At Last Completed and IL
Operation.

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. IA. = The Flour
trust is completed and in operation. 1t
includes most of the wheat millers from
Buffalo to Minneapolis. 1t is understood
the new deal in prices will go into effect
next harvest. 1t is expected the passage
of the anti-option bill has much to do with
the combine. A strong combination of
millers will be able to control the market
at all times.
A Duluth special says: Full particu-
lars of the proposed consolidation of
spring wheat flour millers show that it
will be the most powerful trust yet or
ganized in America outside of the Stand
ard Oil and Steel Beam combined, but its
features are an improvement on those of
most trusts. Pillsbury and other promi-
nent -four men are in the directory.
