to have been made not to enlighten
the public any further ON what is

what has already been done.
One of the silly items is that the
President gave England tip, aud
that this accounts for the restora-

Honolulu from Auckland.
A correspondent of the Chicago
Daily News at Washington repre-
sents Gresham as trying to throw
all responsibility for the Hawaiian
decision on Cleveland. He is made
TO say that the President before his
inauguration declared his determi-
nation to rectify the outrage com

that the instructions to both Blount
and Willis were prepared at the
White House.
