SAN FRANCIsoo, March 2S.-The United
States steamer Alliance arrived here to-day
from Samoa and Honolulu, eleven DAYS out
from Honolulu A movement is on foot
for political organization among all the
friends OF Hawaiian annexation for the
purpose OF supporting the government and
to assist in securing the annexation OF the
islands to the United States The provis-
lonal government is administering public
affairs in a conservative manner aud is
strengthening its lines in every way. This
is being done in order to maintain the situa-
tion until such time as the United States
islands into the fold. The senti-
ment in favor of annexation has,
notwithstanding the Representations
TO the contrary, been gaining ground, and
among those who originally opposed IL are
now many of its ardent supporters.
Ex-Queen Liliuokalant remains secluded
and refuses TO see any one with the exception
of certain persons who stand nearest to her.
To those whom she does consent TO give
audience she declines TO talk about the revo-
luton further than to say that her entire
interests are in the hands OF Paul Neuman.
The news of the visit of Princess Kaiulani
to America and her written appeal to the
people of the United States provoked only
amusement at Honolulu. A story is cur.
rent that the princess is engaged to marry
the son OF Mr.. Davies, her guardian.

The uncertainty which prevails as to che
probable fate OF the islands, 90 far as the
question Of annexation to the United States
is concerned, is having a depressing effect
here, aud feeling Of unrest has arisen.
ANNEXATION LOSING BY DELAY.
The Inauguration OF new party, the
Hswiian Patriotic League, last week hav-
ing for its object the avowed purpose OF
maintaining as far as possible the
autonomy of the country, shows how the
opposition to annexation grows with delay.
The officers and many OF the members OF
the league were not at first strongly against
the prospect Of government from Washing
