what she is up to, and this morning
think solved the problem. An old sailor.
one / knew in Japan. came to me and
asked the loan of S., saying he was out of
work but intended to ship soon on vessel
that would leave in fortnight. l asked
him what vessel, aud he pointed to the
craft referred to.
"'What Is her trade?' asked.
ITO this he pulled down the corner OF
his eyelid, as much as to say Something
queer
Il let him have the money, and am con-
vlnced that the boat is an opium-smug-
gler."
Again listen to the story of a press rep
resentative who returned from Honolulu a
week ago. Being asked yesterday about
Lycurgus' place he said: "The Greek has
made quite nice hotel out of the WAIKIKI
villa. but everybody knows that he does
something else than serve the public.
Three or four nights before 1 left suspi-
clOls-looking schooner anchored near his
place and remained until daybreak. The
next morning Government officials asked
the captain why he had not come up to tho
city harbor. and he replied that the wind
had failed him. Of course they found
nothing contraband; the boat could have
unloaded an entire cargo during the night"
Thus it can be seen at glance that a
schooner believed to be smuggler sailed
from Honolulu about May Is, and a
schooner of the same description anchored
off the Waikiki villa. about July or the
latter part of June. 1t would have been
impossible for schooner to have gone to
Yokohama or any Japanese or Chinese
port within those dates and return. but it
was perfectly possible for such a craft to
make the trip to and from San francisco
Rifles and cartridges have been shipped
to Honolulu. This THE CALL knows.
No seizure has been made of any such
goods on the Hawaiian Islands So does
not everything point to clever plot on the
part of the royalists in Honolulu?
When the false report was sent out from
Port Townsend that the Mohican had been
fired into by the fishing steamer Alexander
everybody inquired regarding the latter
vessel. Sunday morning The CALL told
of her curious makeup. She sailed from
here on hunting and fishing" cruise.
She is OF 295 tons burden and carries a
crew of forty-five men.
She sailed under the Hawaiian flag and
was booked as the property Of John Ena
of Honolulu. The Alexander carried the
following articles of warfare: Two six

NO THREATS WERE MADE.
But the Hungry in Denver Got What
They Wanted.

DENVER, July 2S. S.-Camp Relief at
River-front Park to-day fed over 1000 un-
employed, and tents are being used to
shelter many of the INDECENT During the
day fully 600 men were taken out of the
city by different trains, and scenes about
the depot were at times exciting. Before
leaving crowds entered many of the bak-
cries and stores and asked for food. No
threats were made. but they got what they
wanted. The milk wagons also con.
tributed.
KANSAS CITY. July 2S.-Chef of Police
Speers has discovered law in the statutes
forbidding railway companies to bring
paupers into the State. In view of the
threatened invasion of unemployed and
destitute men from Colorado he has de-
cided to enforce the law. All trains will
be stopped by officers Of inspection at the
State line and paupers not allowed to come
into the State,

be imported. And here is an interesting
point. Circumstantial evidence bears out
the story of impending trouble so CON-
pletely that no further testimony seems
necessary.
Every body who has evar visited Homo
lulu knows "Lycurgus the Greek" By
occupation he is a smuggler. This Is no
libel, for the man boasts OF his ability in
this direction and enjoys considerable
wealth because of his cleverness. Lycurgus
prefers opium for many reasons. and sew
eral schooners have saledfrom Yokohama
for the Hawaiian Islands with precious
cargoes for the ex-Athenian.
Mr.. LycurguS two months ago purchased
the villa at Waikiki. This delightful re-

lsh legation to discuss what action should
be taken in the event of rioting on the part
OF the Chinese, who form large percent
age of the ciy's population. The ques-
tion was left open. but it was decided to
ask Slam to station military guards in the
business centers as measure of precau-
ton.
The Siamese Government continues
making every effort to maintain peace
with France, and is encouraged by the
events of the last twenty-four hours to
believe that an understanding will be
reached shortly. The French flag has
been hoisted at Ko-si-chang.
PARIS. July 2S.-Admiral Human has
made no report to the Government yet on
the blockade The press and public ara
beginning to realize it is useless to ex-
pect Russia to assist France in grabbing
Siam. The Soir. which formerly threat
ened England with Russian alliance, now
admits France can only hope for the Cars
neutrality.
A dispatch from Peking says that the
Viceroys of the provinces of Kwangsi and
Yunnan have received instructions from
the Chinese court as to the attitude which
they must maintain in the event of con-
fict between Siam and France. The Chi
nese Government has chartered several
steamers to convey troops, arms and am
muniti0n from the north to the south.
a ST. Petersburg special says that she
report that Russia had sounded Siam in
relation to the cession of the island of Sa-
lang for a Russian naval station is declared
unfounded
Nevertheless, despite Rumann's silence.
1t was reported to-day that the blockade
had been declared.
1t is certain, moreover, that 1900 troops
have been ordered in readiness to proceed
to Siam.
Later it is reported that France has
agreed to accept Slams proposals and to
abandon its claims to territory between the
eighteenth and twenty-third parallels.
This agreement has been reached through
Lord Dufferin and Minister Develle.
This will probably end the difficulty with
Siam.

sort Is situated four miles from Honolulu
on the seashore, and within stones
throw OF the villa is a safe anchorage for
small sea-going craft. The villa had for
some time been conducted as an adjunct
to the Hawaiian Hotel. 1t was owned by
Mr.. Herbert. who was once interested in
the larger concern. There was very little
parley over the terms of the purchase.
Louis Levy, Honolulu's chief anctioneer,
negotiated the sale. furniture and all. and
told the writer that he was surprised at the
bargain being concluded so quickly.
Then everybody looked wise and said
that Lycurgus wanted the villa so he could
smuggle opium in at Waikiki. The new
boniface smiled and said nothing.
Everybody has heard of Sam Parker
and William Cornwell Liliuokalanps old
Ministers. Well, there is group in Hon.
olulu that has been closely watched since
the revolution. The members are: Par
Aer. Cornwell. Colburn and DR.. Foote.
The latter person is a mystery. He lives
we'll, but certainly not from his practice.
Now Dr. Foote'S most intimate friend Is
this same Lycurgus. 1t was limited that
their relationship extended in business
channels, but be that as it may. they we're
together a great deal just after hauling
down the stars and stripes, and Lycureus
was frequently closeted with leading roy
alists.
Now for another line of evidence. The
Mohican sailed from Honolulu for Port
Townsend May i. Two days before she
sailed Lieutenant Hetherington said to the
writer:
"There's a suspicious little schooner out
in the bay. We have all been wondering
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1893-07-29

South Sea islands not far from the
Hawaiian group. She is said to be fitting
out. What for? Not for Berng Sea, as
she could not reach there now before the
cream of the season was over. The fact
that she sailed south instead of north
proves the absurdity of this.
And another thing; just glance again at
the description of her armament. Up in
Bsring Sea are the Mohican, Petrol, Bear,
Rush and Ranger. to say nothing about
the English fleet. All these boats carry
long-range guns, cannon effective at four
and five miles. The Alexander is armed
for fighting at close quarters. Before she
could get within range for her Hotchkiss
guns the Mohican's forward Parrot rifle
would have the Alexander at the bottom of
the sea.
NO, the Alexander is fitted for close in
shore fighting. Her draught is just light
enough to allow her to run into this same
port at Waikiki. Then what would fol-
low? The two Hotchkss guns could be
transferred to shore in a couple of hours.
The forty-ive men on board, re-enforced
by royalists and armed with the rifles on
the Alexander alone. could take Honolulu.
The Provisional Government has only
an dTmY OF o0U men ana 10ur ranlQ-nr6
guns. Sam Parker could get 500 men to do
his bidding at moments notice. Among
theseFare 200 who belonged to the old
Hawaiian army and they are crack shots.
Again the Alexander might be Off the
town of Honolulu and shell the city until
it capituated. Under the instructions of
Minister Blount the Boston and Adams
could not interfere. But the probability is
that a shore attack would be made, and
even now the beautiful roadway from
Honolulu to Waikiki may be the scene of
carnage.
John Ena, under whose name the Alex
ander sailed, is well-known citizen Of
Honolulu, and is interested in the rOyalst
cause. He ls a native.
Perhaps Claus Spreckels knew more than
he cared to say the other day. when he re-
marked. soon after landing from the steam
ship Australia, "LiIiuokalani will soon be
on the throne again." The Provisional
Government has no navy to depend upon.
the one old Hawaiian man. of-war, the
Kaimiloa. at present lies rotting in the
stream, robbed of engines and spars.
