TIE Councils and the Finances.

The councils were in session
on Thursday. Judging from the
report in the official organ yes
terday morning, no business was
transacted.
The weekly financial state
ment was presented. The current
account balance, shows a book
amount of s155, 1909 in the
treasury, which does not prove
the true status of its financial
condition. 1t will be noticed
that the expenditures have been
very small, the largest item being
in the Attorney Generals dept.
No doubt for payment to some
of the numerous providers and
spies. Whereas comparatively
nothing has been spent for public
works, or anything decent.
When the current account debts
are all paid, the balance will no
doubt be considerably reduced.
The Total Treasury Balance,
is announced to be S167 ,749. "a;
if the Finance Minister will look
over the figures, he will no doubt
find that the correct amount IS
s157 ,635.2S
In the Postal Savings Bank
department, an amount OF 81 ,0l5
has apparently been paid on
account of Withdrawals. While
the cash on hand balance shows
a reduction of 50 ,63695 since the
report of last week. This is not
healthy showing.

Washington. Nov. 24--The
Cabinet meeting to-day, was a
protracted one. 1t is under
stood that the Presidents mes
sage and the reports of the cabi-
net officers were under discus
sion. If President Cleveland Is
disturbed over the Hawaiian
situation he did not show it to-
dav. There is good reason for
believing that the despatch re-
ceived by the Alameda was con-
sidered at the cabinet meeting
to-day, and the consideration
seems to have resulted in de-
termination not to enlighten the
public any further on what Is
proposed to do in Honolulu, or
what has been done, but to allow
it to wait upon the regular means
of communication.

Interesting Facts From the
Baltimore Sun.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE cri-
tics of the administration are still
engaged in rolling the Hawaiian
matter as sweet morsel under
their tongues They are apparent
Nv having it all to themselves for
the present. and naturally enough
they are endeavoring to make the
best of their opportunity. In the
meantime not syllable has been
uttered by either the President or
any member of his cabinet. The
President is content TO let the state
ment of the Secretary of State stand
alone until such times as he deems
it fitting to supplement it with adj
ditional reasons for the policy he
has deemed it best for this country
to pursue. In due season the coun-
try will have the benefit of all the
information collected by the admi-
nistrs ton, and when it is all
brought to light many of those who
are following the occupation of
denunciation will be apt to hide
their diminished heads.
Many, however, true to their in
stincts, viii stick to their original
text and brazen 1t out to the last.
Such a fine opportunity for the
lovers of gossip and sensation does
not often present itself, and it is
really astonishing to witness the
ingenuity which has produced
countless columns of allegations of
all sorts in reference to the subject.
This is rendered more easy from
the fact that the fabricators realize
there is no one to contradict their
romances.
There is a well settled belief
that the democratic party in both
branches of Congress will sustain
fully the action of the President,
although doubtless there may be
individual democrats who. for the
sake of notoriety, may follow the
republican example of empty
vaporing. Time viii show the
attitude of the country at large,
and as to this the President has no
misgivings.

More Lies, Same Liars
Stevens and Thurston on
the Rampage Again.

The Australia brings news
papers in which Mr.. Thurston.
the present diplomat and Mr..
Stevens the past diplomat have
entered into an interesting COM
petition in their efforts to become
the champion liars of the century.
1t is a pity that the two gentle
men did not consult each other
before they started out to contra
dict the plain and truthful facts
contained in Blount's report, so
they could have avoided contra
dieting each other in getting
worse than tangled IN
their attempts to clear
themselves. Mr.. Thurston
states, that Stevens and Wiltse,
landed the Boston troops on
their own responsibility, and
without the knowledge of the
revolutionists, while Stevens says,
that he would never have asked
Wiltse to land his forces if it
hadn't been that Mr. Thurston
on behalf of the so called COM
mittee of safety had requested
him to do so. Mr.. Stevens says,
that there was no conspiracy, no
secrecy, underhanded business
in the whole revolution, but at
the same time, Attorney General
W. o. Smith accuses Mr.. Wun-
denberg of having divulged the
proceedings at secret meetings
and betrayed the condolences of
his co-conspirators. If the devil
makes an entry in his ledger of
each lie uttered on earth. he
must have been very busy since
the Hawaiian revolution started
and the pages devoted to our
Christian friends, the annexatio-
nists must be filled to overflow.
Among smaller liars, we notice a
fellow who signs himself Garrett,
and who in deter to the Exam
liner INDUCES in lot of abuses
against Mr.. Wundenburg of
whom he says, he once was a
partner, and whose wicked
character" he had ample opport-
unity to become acquainted with.
There was once a fellow here
who absconded and never paid
his lawful debts, but he was
neither a partner, nor IN any
way intimate with Mr.. Wunden-
berg. He simply was as he
seems to be now. rascal and a
liar.

DR.. Days Misstatement.

In an interview in Chicago, DR..
F. r. Day is reported to have
said that, the success of the
revolution in Hawaii is not the
result of display of force by the
United States; that up to and
within twenty-four hours of the
proclamation of the new Constitu-
ton by the Queen no revolt was
thought of; that the result would
have been the same whether the
marines landed or not, but that
the landing of the marines made
the revolution bloodless instead
of bloody That the result
would have been the same
whether the marines landed or
not, the Doctor no doubt knows
better than to express such an
opinion. But that their landing
made the revolution less bloody
for the revolutionists-is true.

Late Foreign News

this morning brings news up 10
the 25th inst. While there is
no change in the situation since
the China left, there seems to be
a strong determination on the
part of the administration to keep
ist Hawaiian politics absolutely
secret in the future, and at the
same time enforce the original
programme of the President and
Secretary Gresham. A Washing
ton despatch dated November
23d, reads:
There was notable lack of
excitement in the reception of
the Hawaiian news to-day. The
copyright letter from Honolulu
was read to Gresham by the
Associated Press representative.
At the portion where Willis was
reported to have said that he
would be glad to see the Amer
lean flag over Hawaii and every
other island in the Pacific, the
Secretary said: Il don't believe
that" Even as subsequently
modified by Willis with the addi-
tional clause "under proper con-
ditions'' the Secretary said, the
Minister must have been incor-
rectly reported. Willis is
capable man. he said;
"He ought not to have
talked on that subject
at all, and [ don't believe he
did"
The statement contained in a.
letter received in San Francisco
from a private correspondent id
Honolulu that the Provisional
Government, was under arms all
night preceding the departure of
the Alameda attracted the Secre-
tary's interest.
Eff that were true he said,
1T is not likely that your cor
respondent would have failed to
know it, and speak of it in his
letter. / think there are many
inaccurate statements in the
letter.
Regarding the assertion that
Willis said, he would do nothing,
until he had heard further
from the State Department, he
declined to say anything.
Secretary Gresham received a
cipher message this afternoon
from Minister Willis, giving a
complete report of the Hawaiian
situation up to the time of the
departure of the Alameda. As to
the exact contents of the mes
sage, no one outside of the Pre-
sident and cabinet knows. The
fact that a message had been
received was given out. however,
aud Il soas also announced that
Its contents tcere highly sdtisfact-
org. This is interpreted by Off
Gals outside of the cabinet to
mean that Willis has completed
all arrangements for the restnr-
alton of Liliuokalani to the
Hawaiian throne.
Gresham's theory is that the
Provisional Government of Ha-
wall comes to an end with
notification from the government
that annexation with the United
States is denied, the government
having been formed for the pur-
pose OF annexation. He may

DEAR FRIEND

gentleman in this town.
DEAR FRIEND
1t is my pleasant duty to ac-
knowledge the receipt of your
favor of the 31st of October, and
to say to you that you cannot be
in any doubt at the present time
as to the result of your Tempest
in a teapot revolution as you
term it. Nv friends here say,
that this fthe Hawaiian matter)
is the only thing done under the
Cleveland Administration that
has been done to our liking; be
this as it may, Cleveland has
done an honorable and necessari-
" creditable thing to the great
American people. although his
course will be very severely criti-
cised by the opposition and many
a man who, understanding the
real true condition under which
the Queen was dethroned would
persue the same course that he
(Cleveland) did, were he In posi-
ton so to do, will now, under the
pressure of partisanship which
will be brought to bear on this
dnestion denounce his acts as
unpatriotic and undeserving the
sanction of American citizens.
However, when the true con-
ditions are explained, and
YOU will find that time will
necessitate the explanation, then
the honorable Americans will
endorse his course regardless of
party lines As disinterested
admirer of your country and the
people of it, 1 take pleasure also
in congratulating them on the
replacement of their choice to the
throne Queen Liliuokalani,
and [ wish her all the success
that belongs to a queen whose
intentions are to do the most
good for the greatest number of
her people and I believe that to
be her sentiments.
I am aware of some newspaper
criticism in Honolulu on my
letters to newspaper in this
State, and I will say to Iyou now
in regard to it that my object in
writing to such paper as was
mentioned was that the paper
is published in the home OF our
two United States Senators and
l knew it would get to Washing
ton and be placed in the place
where it would be scrutinized
carefully and commented on
sufficiently to getan expression of
opinions, that would do some
good for an honest cause as | be-
lieved it to be, and / am now
rejoicing on account of its success.
There is considerable talk as
well as newspaper threats here
that the Provisional Government
will resist the United States in
re-instating the Queen, but L
know it is all bosh, and | do not
hesitate TO say that there will not
be rife on the usual quiet that
ordinarily prevails in Honolulu
the day it takes place, and those
1000 sharp shooters that they
talk of lin the papers here) will
diminish to less than twenty, and
they, l think. have wisdom
enough to look out for themselves
and put their Winchesters IN
safe hiding place or they will be

Ghosts-not Ibsen's kind, but some
that looked like the good, old-iashioned
sort-appeared a number of years ago
IN daguerreotype and tiutype plates ex-
hibited by certain photographers In
New YORK, Boston and elsewhere.
These ghosts, which we're occasionally
visible in Photographic prints OF the
modern kind, excited the liveliest curl
osity for q time. Occasionally they were
unscrupulously advertised as visitors
from the spirit land. Even in COM
paratively recent times IL has
been claimed that tho camera
has photographed shadowy images
invisible to the human eye.
The ghost pictures generally took the
form of a figure Of hay and trans
parent outlines, lowering over a seated
figure, or near q standing figure that
might or might not be In 4 conscious at
titude. The nominal figure occasionally
exhibited recognition Of the ghost, ap-
pealingly holding out q hand, or start
ing back in alarm. Although these pic
lures were most frequently offered as a

carry out personal jokes Of one kind OF
another, they frequently imposed upon
