Paunoerote Protests Against 1t.

CHICAGO, Feb. I0.-The Herald's
Washington correspondent sends the
following: Within few hours after
the arrival in this city of the news that
Minister Stevens had established an
American protectorate over the Ha-
waiian islands, Sir Julian Pauncefote,
the British minister, made his appear
ance at the state department. He was
for half an hour in consultation with
Secretary Foster, and after the minis
ter's departure Secretary Foster went
over to the White House and saw, the
president.
Secretary Foster, is of course, diplo-
matically reticent as to what was said to
him by the representative of her
majesty,s government, but the cores
pondent of the Herald is in possession
of facts which justify the statement that
Mr.. Paucefote called to protest against
the action of Minister Stevens and to
serve notice that the government of
Great Britain is not likely to sit idly by
and see this government assume full
control of affairs in Hawaii.
1t is known that Sir Julian was in
formed of the new turn of affairs in
Hawaii as quickly as,was our state de-
partment. The presumption is that the
British minister at Honolulu forwarded
the dispatches by the steamer Australia,
which arrived at San Francisco yester-
day morning, and the tenor of these dis
patches must have been in the nature of
a full explanation of the scheme which
the American residents of these islands,
tools of Clause Spreckels and the sugar
conspirators. have been working.

A Financial Panic Threatens the IstA-
mus.

MANAGUA, Feb. 10.-A financial crisis
is imminent in this republic. In refer
ence to this trouble the newspaper 81
Comercia, of Leona, says: For reasons
yet unknown the bank of Nicaragua
closed its agencies at Rivas, Masay and
Chlnendiga, and will also shortly close
the branches at Greytown and Mata-
gulpa and go into liquidation, refunding
to the shareholders their capital" The
same paper is also responsible for the
statement that as soon as the agencies
were closed the exchange of notes ceased,
occasioning serious loss to holders, who
were compelled to dispose of them at a
discount to brokers.

SIR: On two occasions, when had
an interview with your excellency,
called your attention to the continued
presence on shore of a naval force from
the United States ship Boston, and 1
understood your excellency to say that
it would shortly return to that vessel.
1t has not, however, yet done SO. see
in the newspapers that the Hawaiian
provisional government has a regular
force of 103 men and officers. beside
three volunteer companies and large
body of police force. should think
this force more than sufficient to main
tain law and order and to protect life
and property, and I am, therefore, con-
strained to again ask your excellency
why this foreign force is not recalled.
Your obedient servant,
JAMES HAY WooDHoUsE,
II. B. NJ. Minister Resident.
To Honorable s. B. Dole, President
Hawaiian Provisional Government.
The relations between President Dole

clause in the treaty entered into by the
United States, Great Britain and France
relative to the landing of armed forces
by either of these powers. Twice the
British minister resident has called
upon President Dole in relation to the
matter, and both times he was assured
that the force would soon go aboard the
cruiser. This was more than a week
ago. The troops are still here, and the
following letter on the subject has been
received by President Dole:

ORIGIN OF THe SWING.

The swing, 90 dear TO children, can
be traced back to the festivals which
took place In pagan days In honor OF
Bacchus, when lit tie figures were hung
on trees and were supposed 10 bring
blessings on the ground as they swayed
70 and fro rocked by the wind, says the
Philadelphia Times. The reason Of this
custom IS explained by the fable of
Icarius receiving Bacchus In Attica,
and tho god was so grateful to him that
he taught him the art Of making wine.
Icarius then gave some of the wine to
his peasants, and az they became intox-

us had poisoned them, killed him In their
