STEVENS TESTIFIES.


The Ex-Minister to Hawaii Before the
senate Committee.
WASHINGTON. January 90 Ex Min.
lister Stevens was before the sub-com-
mittee of the Senate Committee on For
eign Relations to-day. Senator Gray sf
Delaware examined Stevens very closely
upon points where he had been charged
by Commissioner BlOunt with abettlng
the revolution. The eX-Minister stood
by the statements he previously made
and gave the Committee no opportunity
TO show by his testimony that the Uni
ted States was in any way responsible
for the revolution. Stevens was EN-
phatic in the declaration that the revolu-
ton would have occurred in any event;
that it was only a question of time, and
that the Queen, by trying to overthrow
the Constitution, forced it at the particu-
lar time when it occurred.
Stevens proved willing witness. He
defended his course in the islands and
found abundant opportunity TO reply ia
questions and characterized in no com
plinentary terms the reflections made
by the President aud Commissioner
Blount upon his policy. He admitted
frankly that he had been an advocate
of the annexation of the islands, but as,
serted that instead of allowing this fact
TO influence him in having marines
landed in acknowledgement of the
Provisional Government and in assum
ing prOtectorate over the islands he
held back as long rs possible without
doing grave injustice and permitting
matters to assume Il shape which would
have been detrimental to this country
and its people, not to say repugnant to
his sense of humanity.
1t is reported that Stevens furnished
the committee a copy of his despatch To
the State Department which Cleveland
withheld when submitting the cores
pondence To Congress in December. and
that it related to the iutrigues of British
Minister WodehOuse for the purpose of
securing the supremacy of British in
huence in the islands.

Mr.. BLAINE's continental policy,
in its bearing upon San Domingo,
Hawaii and the Nicaragua canal,
is described at length in another
column by a writer who interview
ed the great statesman a year be-
fore his death. 1t is interesting to
note that the views expressed are
closely allied to those which the
late Samuel J. Tilden-himself a
statesman Of extraordinary genius
gave to the American people, in
an open letter to President Cleve-
land, in 1855. These opinions are
as Democratic as they are Repub-
lican and it is but an augury OF
wider patriotism and intelligence
to say that all parties will eventual
ly adopt them.

WAS 1T INTENTIONAL?


The Hawaiian Representative Not In
vited To the State Dinner.
WAsHINGTON, January 20.-iossip IN
diplomatic circles is busy over an in
cident of the state dinner AT the White
House on Thursday night
In the published list of invited guests
the name of Secretary Hastings, who, in
the absence of Minister Thurstun, is in
charge of the affairs of the Hawaiian
legation, was included. Hastings was
not among the guests present at the
dinner and 1t is now learned that he
received no invitation.
This omission, whether accidental or
intentional, eXcites comment because
both the Secretaries of Legation of
Horea and Colombia, who; in the alb
sen of their respective Min ter
IL in the same position Hs Mr. Ht tings,
were conspicuous among the guests,
which in fact included the head of every
legation now in Washington except the
Hawaiian Legation.

SIR | have the honor to submit the
following report in regard TO the situa-
ton since the departure of the Corwin

Military preparations for the d, Tense
continue to be made by the Provisional
Government, and the excitement l. un-
abated. The newspapers assume that |.
as the military representative of the
United states Government, intend to
use force to restore the Queen. At the
same time they quote me as saying ]

sidered unlawful also that the officers

the same attitude. These sensa-
tional reports are intended to
influence public opinion in the
United States aud are without founda.
ton. Since my arrival have carefully
avoided all expression of opinion,
| except in conference with the United
States Minister, and ordered all of my
command to pursue a similar course. |
may further add, MIR. Willis has never
/ given me the slightest hint that there
ever was any Intention on the part of
the United States Government to use
| force III order to restore the Queen Nv
own orders to preserve strict neutrality
have been implicitly obeyed. 1t has
been asserted quite often that we have
prepared to land, which is true, but our
motives Were Intentionally miscon-
strhed. As Willis stated openly, and
the statement was published, he would
land forces solely for the purpose of
suppressing riot and to protect the lives
| and property of the defenseless. Were
it not for the course of the newspapers
in their endeavor to influence public
opinion in the United States no uneasi-
ness would be felt and business would
20 on as usual. Very respectfully,

THE TERRITORY STRIKE.

The white miners at Anderson
mines, worked by the ChOctaw coal
company, struck Yesterday, pursuant
to a call made ON them by the strik-
ing miners at Crebs, Lehigh and Coal
gate. This action was looked for by
the Choctaw coal company, and they
had prepared for the strike by i'm
porting some $50 negro miners from
'rhurber, Tex, a few days ago.
Work still goes ON ami will go on,
says the Choctaw company.
Hartshorne miners decided not to
strike by vote Of 210 to 1O7. A
great deal of pressure is being
brought 70 bear at Hartshorn in the
hopes of getting them out.
AT Herbs, Lehigh and Coalgate the
situation is unchanged.
The NJ, X. & II. are getting their
supply elsewhere-2O0 cars per week

same amount from Weir City Kan

At Coalgate about seventy-five OF
