Washington and other parts of the
country. II was in these meetings
in so many localities being brought
into close contact with the great
heart of the people, that the cause
of the great interest felt in the
United States in this particular
annexation, was shown. America
regards Hawaii as her child,
thence came one christian civil

Hawaii, and now America feels
that the time has come for q closer

Mr. HAROLD sEwaLk

A statement appears below
from Hon. Harold Sewall. Mr.
Sswsll feels he has not merited
the reports and criticisms concern
ing his views and position since
his visit here, and he very properly
makes a succinct and clear state
ment Of the facts, which viii set
him right before the public. As
far as his views on annexation are
concerned, Mr.. Sewall declares he
has not changed from those ex-
pressed by him on the 4th Of last
February, at Bath, Maine, on the
occasion of the launching of the
United States ram Katahdin. The
following is the paragraph re-
ferred to:
Nor were our hopes thus founded
altogether doomed to Disappointment
The rich trade of the fertile islands Of
Hawaii, those jewelled outposts Of cur
Golden Gate is ours, carried in our
ships under the American flag. That
trade is ours, and notwithstanding
the Vaccinations Of Canadian poll
tieians who defeated one Of the broad
est and most statesmanlike treaties
that ever came from the broad and
American mind Of James G.. Blaine,
whose name you will receive in reyer-
ent silence, that trade will remain
ours even as those islands themselves
in the providence Of God, and by the
will of their people, will yet De ours.

STATEMENT OF Mr.. SEwALL
On His Return Today he De-
cIares His Position Plainly.

| On His Return Today he De-
clares His Position Plainly.
The reports which have been CIR
culated regarding my visit here, as
various in number as they have been
wide OF the truth, have not hereto
fore felt called upon to deny.
But now that one of them has been
thought of sufficient Importance to
have been forwarded to Washington,
and to have received there its proper
denial, 1 desire to make the following
statement:
I have never, in public or private
interview, claimed in any way to
represent President Cleveland or the
administration in whatever 1 have
said regarding Hawaiian affairs and
the question of annexation.
During my absence from town this
week. when it was impossible for me
to make any explanation, the Star
has seen fit to give currency to the
charge which I have denied above,
and to add to it another charge
equally baseless.
The reported interview in San
Francisco which gave rise to the
charge in question never took place
so far as 1 am concerned / saw no
reporter there nor on the steamer,
and / did not therefore authOTizs il,
either by direct statement or implI-
cation Of words or manner OK con-
duet.
The reported interview with Hon.
y. W. Kalua IN Maui Is equally base
less. did not mention the subject OK
politics to him during my entire trip.
Regarding my relations with Dr.
Bowen, they were entirely social, and
as such concerned only myself. Since,
however, they have been made the
subject Of false implication, / will say
this:
met the doctor for the first time
on the steamer, the day before We
landed. We found it convenient 20
take a cottage together / know
nothing Of what be said during bis
EhlAo pun Tie uAAcA CIT uA4lAa4o lrAlt
as 1 did not accompany him on these,
nor did he give me his confidence re-
gsrdiDg the subject matter discussed
All that be appeared to be, all that he
claimed TO be TO me, was a journalist
Of influence IN directing the policy Oh
the question Of annexation Of the
New York World, and a man on
friendly and familiar footing with
Mr. Cleveland IL be misrepresented
himself TO others or 10 noe. was his
greatest victim. 1 always found him

tlemsn, and prefer even to snffe- un-

to attacks upon him, made when be
