ing me who had then charge of the hall.
So much time had been thus consumed
that the BoStOn'S marines and sailors
were obliged TO stand weary hours in
the street before they were able to 60 to
THEIR NIGHT QUARTERS.
A copy of the call of the committee of
safety, which BlOunt insinuateS that |
wished to conceal from him. had been
promptly forwarded to Washington in
= January and was in the printed pam
phlet of the state department docu-
ments, ordered published by the senate,
a copy of which l suppose Blount must
have brought with him when he came
to the islands.
AS soon as this astute commissioner
ascertained that Neumann was in full
accord with Spreckels and Blount for
Liliuokalani's restoration to the throne,
at once, Blount Immediately learned
that Neumann is a fright down" good
fellow. So much for conclusive evil
dence that SpreckelS, Neumann and
Blonnt were then, as now, rowing the
same boat, and closely linked in the
conspiracy to damage the action of Har-
rlson's administration and of the senate
committee on foreign affairs, on the
question of annexation.
So far as the affidaVIts Of John f. Col
burn and A. 2. Peterson and Charles l..
Hopkins and the letter of w. ii. Corn
we'll conflict with any writing or act of
NINE, l will not multiply words. The
first named is notorious corruptionist,
with some amiable qualities, who aided
III bringing the legislative members
to vote out the Jones' Wilcox ministry
and to pass the lottery bill. and he de-
manded and received as compensation
tor his infamous services few hours of
occupancy in the Hawaiian interior de-
partment, and Peterson is the man who
aided i'll the distribution of
THE LOTTERY STOCK
for the purchase of legislative votes, and
held the queens authority to constitute
a lottery cabinet and to aid the queen to
proclaim reactiOnary constitution.
As 10 Samuel Parker, whose testimony
is used to discredit my action, | would
gladly say little. Good-natured, free
hearted, ignorant, fond of luXuriant
living, notorious spendthrlft, lie has
wasted large fortune left him by his
grandfather and uncle. He was ready
tool i'll the hands of Peterson and Corn
we'll in the palace conspiracy which
precipltated the fall of the monarchy.
OF lhe doctor, G.. Trosseau, who
tgures conspicuously among Blount's
af1l tavitS, WhlteWaShing tie notorious
Wilson and Liliuokaiani and abuSively
rejecting on my official action, | need
only say that he is an adventurous
Frenchman whose printed record in
Paris and moral career in Honolulu l
Will not soil this paper with.
Of j. A. CumminS it is correct to re-
mark that what is herein said of Samuel
Parker IN most respects apply to Cum
MINIS 1t is not strange that w. Il.
Seward unites in testimony with Cum
minis, for Seward is a kind of house
clerk and steward of Cummins. Hop
kinS belonged to the same gang as
Cornwell and Peterson. Cornwell had
been one of the intimate police associ-
ates of Kalakaua in his bestial.
LECHEROUS LIFE
and shameful transactions. He was
one of the most active in aiding Peter
son and Colburn TO bride the legislature
in forcing out the Jones-Wilcox min
istry, whom all the responsible men of
the islands wished to continue. He had
been repeatedly voted out of the
ministry after very brief stay by
large majoIties. He is the man whom
the queen sent to Washington to get
her restored to the throne, to sell out
her claims to the crown in hard cash,
He is the man by whom Blount alb
SuIulN HlillS udu SouI ulSpdlcueS 10
Washington on an errand for which on
no occasion had L ever employed any
one.
The testimony of hundreds of such
would not counterbalance the words Of
Minister Thurston, President Dole
and Henry Waterhouse among honest
men who know the respective parties.
As TO Wilson, the queens favorite for
many years, whom Blount attempts to
whitewash. [ will not soil these pages
by giving even the notorious facts in
his case.
AS to my recognition of the provis-
ional government, reaffirm what said
in my recent letter to Secretary
Gresham.
Queen liliuokalani inaugurated the
revolution by attempting to destroy the
constitution by revolutionary means.
From Saturday afternoon, Jan. IA, 10
Jan. 10, there was no govern
ment in Honolulu except in the
united and self-possessed attitude of the
citizens, who assembled in great mass
meeting on Jan. 16, and cOnsummated
the efforts for the law and order by es-
Enlistment of the provisional govern
menr OH the nth, which was promptly
acknowledged by all foreign representa-
tives who were familiarwit the circum-
stances of its creation. 1t was nearly
fifty hours after Liliuokalani and her
favorites had destroyed her throne by
revolutionary outbreak when the men
OF the Boston landed.
