NICARAGUA CANAL.
An Order That a Suit Be En-
tered Against the Company.
Failure of an international Agree.
ment Said to Have Caused
the Controversy.

MANAGUA. Nov. 22.-Gusman, the Mic
araguan Minister at Washington, has been
instructed by the Government at Nicara-
qua to Immediately enter suit against the
Nicaragua Canal Company. The basis for
the suit is the failure to complete the
canal between the two lakes within the
time specified in the international agree
ment The canal company guaranteed to
complete this canal within three years
from the date of the concession granted.
In case the canal was not completed within
the time the company agreed to pay the
Government of Nicaragua $500, O00. This
is the amount involved in the suit, which
it is understood Gusman is directed to
enter at once. 1t is hoped this action will at
least have the effect of stimulating the
new company, which Is now about to take
hold of the canal in the work of construc-
tion. This is what Nicaragua desires more
than anything else.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Secretary Hoke
Smith has about completed his annual re-
port. In it is paragraph relating to the
Maritime Canal Company of Nicaragua.
Very little work, he will say, has been
done on the ditch during the year, caused
mainly by the suspension of the Nicaragua
Canal Construction Company. The latter
concern is gathering itself together and
will soon be in shape for business. Then
active operations will follow. The Secre-
tary will speak of the commercial advan-
tages which the completion of the great
work will confer on this country.
NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Thomas B. At
kins, receiver Of the Nicaragua Canal,
was seen to-day. He said he had received
no official information that Minister Gus
man was about TO bring suit in behalf of
his Government against the Canal
Construction Company for failure to full
fill its contracts, but DR.. Gusman admit
ted the truth of the report that If the
canal between the lakes is not completed
in the time specified the Maritime Company
had agreed to pay Nicaragua $500, 900. aud
it is for this amount that suit will be
brought. 1t is understood suit will also be
brought for the abrogation of all conces-
sions made and the Government of Nicara-
qua left free to make contracts and conces-
sions with other corporations.

1T DOES NO GOOD.
What Senator Dolph Says of Com.
missioner Blount's Report.


WASHINGTON. Nov. Ex-senator Dolph.
member of the Senate Committee on For
eign Relations, who has read with consid-
cradle care the report Of Blount, says the
report reads very much as if prepared by
a man sent to the islands for certain
purpose. and that purpose was to show
what had been done was wrong. He did
not think the administra tion had been
strengthened by the publication of Mr..
BIount's report. for the more carefully it
was considered the more apparent it would
be that Blount was sent 10 the islands to
report against the action of Minister
Stevens and the Provisional Government.
Dolph says it Is perhaps true that our
Minister acted somewhat hastily. but it is
not shown that the revolution would not
have occurred or the Queen been de-
throned; nor had 1t been proven that
there having been established govern
ment, recognized by this Government, that
this Government had any right to over
throw it and re-esiablish either the old or
the new Government. The Senator added
that there was not so much interest in
Blount's report, but that the most import
ant document and what all would like to
see, is that containing the instructions TO
Minister Willis.

VARIOUS RUMORS AFLOAT.
Stories That LiIiuokalani Has
Been Restored.
rHURsT0N NOT UNDlPLoMATIC.
Stevens Tells of the Peculiar Rings
That Oppose the Annexation of
the Islands.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The officers OF
the State Department fully believe that
Queen Llliuokalani by this time has been
restored to the Hawaiian throne. While
not fixing any precise time for the rein
statement TO take place. they believe force
was unnecessary. It seems, however,
while actual force may not have been
authorized, there is to be such show as to
make the Provisional Government believe
the United States will use all the power al
its command to bring about the restora-
ton. The statement is also made that if
Dole refused to aceede to the demands of
Willis he would be thrust aside and the
Queen restored. even if the administration
has to go to Congress for authority. At
the same time it is claimed there was no
necessity for any such action, as the iu-
formation from the islands is TO the effect
that everything is working precisely as
expected. One reason for the belief in
some quarters that the restoration had
taken place yesterday was because that
unless the restoration took place before
the arrival Of the first steamer from the
United States since the attitude of the ad-
ministration was made public it would not
be made at all, because sentiment in the
Thurston TO the Provisional Government
would have tendency to sustain them and
cause them to resist Minister Willis efforts
at,restoration.
This phase of the case was suggested to
the State Department to-day, and the reply
received was it made no differ ence, and the
restoration would go on just the same. 1t
is claimed that as seon as it was known
that the United States would not sustain
the Provisional Government, but was de-
termined to undo what had been done by
the revolutionistS. the public would imme-
diately compel the restoration of the
Queen and the Provisional Government
would fall and its m9mDer hasten to take
advantage of gin amnesty which Minister
Willis woujpasnsist the Queen should grant
upon hs(bg restored to tie throne. The

ADVICES FROM PElXOTO.
The Facts of the Arrest of Vice-Con-
sui Grant.

SUI UTdnI.
NEW YORK, Nov. 22-Under date of
Rio. November %, President Peixoto has
sent the following to the Herald. through
the Minister of Foreign Affairs: The
Government having arrested emissary of
Jose Mariana bearing dispatches to the
re bells, from which it was learned that a
plot to incite Pernambuco to insurrection
only awaited an opportunity to be put into
execution, promptly declared that city in
state of siege, and the ringleader and
some of his followers have been arrested.
Otherwise the state remains in complete
peace.
1t has come to our knowledge that the
rebels on the island of DesterrJ more than
twenty days ago arrested Robert Grant, the
American Vice-Consul. who had gone
there on the British steamship Gorda TO
bring away his family and some friends.
After the arrest they forbade the vessel to
hold any further communication with the
shore. All the rest of the country is in
peace.
Peixoto has again been mounting guns on
hill within the city limits. contrary to his
understanding with foreign diplomats.
A general bombardment of the capital
seems inevitable. and fighting with small
arms is almost incessant. The business
section Of the city is under practically a
continuous fire, and many persons have
been wounded in the streets. Fort Ville-
gagnon still holds out stubbornly against
Peixoto's guns, and Fort Lage has in turn
been severely battered by the rebels fire.
Both sides are preparing for even more
aggressive operations, and the insurgents
seem we'll advised of all of PeixOto's
movements. The diplomatic corps has
removed to Petro polls. Senor Capurro.
the Uruguayan Minister of Public Works,
has resigned.

CONGRESS WILL CONSIDER 1T.
The Hawaiian Question to Be Taken
Up Vigorously.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 22.-In an inter-
view to-day Senator Cullom of Illinois ex-
pressed the opinion that Congress on reas-
sembling would take up the Hawaiian
question in a vigorous way. He said
there would be an early demand for all
reports bearing on the question. II can
hardly say" he continued. what Con-
gress can do, as the treaty has been with
drawn, but there it nothing to prevent a
general expression of opinion by Con-
gress. aud if, meantime. it should develop
that the Queen has been restored to the
throne by the interven ton of the United
States, there is no telling what might be
done. The country will not tolerate the
kingly airs assumed by the present ad-
ministration. In my opinion Its best
course is to go into bankruptcy. where, by
its policy, it has forced so many good men,"

form of long brief protesting against be-

PITTsBURG. Nov. 22.-Another steel

leased the big new steel plant of the Penn

REALLY RIDICULOUS.
Senator MitcheI's Idea of the
Queens Restoration.

UuSSn NCStOtd
WASHINGTON. Nov. Ex-senator Mitch
ell of Oregon arrived here yesterday from
San Francisco. He was asked to-day to
express an opinion concerning the atti-
tude of the people OF the Pacific Coast
toward the Hawiian question and said:
II have talked with a great many people
of San Francisco and other points on the
Pacific Coast and can say that the general
sentiment in that part of the country is
very decisive and emphatic In opposition
to what the people there seem to under
stand TO be the policy of the administra-
ton, and their understanding when l left
there was that this policy looked to the
overthrow of the existing Government and
the re-estabishment of the Queen"
He declined to speak in regard to the
suggestion made by some Western papers
that Cleveland be impeached on the
ground that in such event the Senate
would be the court to try him, and it
would be unseemly to speak in advance.
The Senator did not, however, hesitate at
saying that be believed the sentiment of
the Pacific Coast was that the present
Government of the Sandwich Islands
ought be let alone by the United States.
ut is" said he, ito say the least, Gov
eminent in fact which has been recog-
nized not alone by our Government. but
nearly every civilized Government of the
earth. certainly by every Government hay-
ing a representative in Hawaii.
Minister Willis has been accredited to
this Government by the President. If,
then, we are correct in the impression
which we are justified in entertaining,
Willis is instructed to use his influence
and the influence of this Govern ment,
either automatically through peaceful in
strumentalities alone. or by means of a
naval demonstration on the part of the
United States to overthrow the Govern
ment to which be is accredited. Ii, say,
this view of the case is correct, it presents

tional courtesies.
"There would be as much con nsistency In
instructing our Minister to France to in
vestigate the means by which the present

inaugurated or the present administration
installed, and to attempt to overthrow it
and to restore the Bourbons or Bonapart-
lists to power, as there is In our effort to re-
