Another Batch Of Hawaiian Corrsspond-
ence Sent to Congress.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The president
in brief note submitted to congress
the latest correspondence relating to
Hawaii 1t comprises some brief notes
from Minister Willis to Secretary
Gresham which are unimportant. Tut
between Minister Willis and President
Dole, in one of which the minister COM
planned of an utterance of President
Dole as rejecting upon the president of
the United States and letter from
President Dole in which he specifically
inquired if Minister Willis instruc-
tons authorized the use of force. Both
these matters appear to have been set
tied by the receipt of the last message
of the president to congress and the
instructions of Secretary Gresham to
Minister Willis.
The most important part of the cor
cespondence consists of long letter
from Minister Willis to Secretary
Gresham containing Enclosures of cor
dependence between President Dole
and himself.
Letter, No. 201E dated January 5, to
Secretary Gresham, says:

At all it ad been in favor OF the beneficlaries
Of our wrong doing felt. therefore. that the
IF the 9th ultimo were directed, not at me per-
sonally, but at the president and should be

from the high character and sense Of justice OF
Mr.. Dole that if he rc-examined his letter such
would be the result, l wrote him 4 note
which inclose. This note was delivered at
mis- residence on the night of the same
lay FRIDAY, December 30 upon which his Sec
md letter was received Having no answer up
to Sunday night December 81, and having &C.
casion to communicate with his colleague Mr.
Damon upon another matter, called his at
tention to the failure OF Mr.. Dole to reply to
my note, which explained to him was written
with no unfriendly purpose, but was as by itself
declared for the best interests Of ALL" He in
formed me that the advisory council met the

would then receive attention

the letter from Hon S. b. Dole, herewith in

tention TO withdraw any OF my letters" This.
Of course, left every charge and statement in
full force as Of that date Believing that these
charges, whether so intended or not, reflected
very unjustly upon the president VIII Sc agent
