But She Did, and Then Willis Acted-The
Message Had Gone to Congress, Too, and
the Scrape Is Worse Than Ever.
New York, January 6.-The Herald, a
thick and thin supporter of the Presi-
dents Hawaiian policy and one of the
few favored papers which got the first
batch of the correspondence when pub
lished last fall in advance of all the rest,
prints the following Washington des-
patch, which is significant as corroborat-
ing the report via Auckland. New Zea-
land, and the rumors concerning the Cor

The President has reached the limits
of his constitutional powers in his eff
forts to rectify the gross outrage perpe-
trated by Minister Stevens in Hawaii.
The efforts have failed.
Nothing short of resort to force Of
arms, which Congress alone has authori-
ty to authorize, will give the queen her
rights, of which she was wrongfully de-
prived through the instrumentality of
representatives of the United States.
4ms, IN DFle1, is the HAWAIIAN sltua-
tion as developed by the official des-
patches received by the State Depart
rnent last night from Misister Willis.
That Minister Willis should have gone
to the extreme limit of his instructions
was surprise to the President and 9TH
er members of the administration. In
deed, it may be said that some disap-
pointment followed the receipt of these
dispatches In view of the many par-
plexities inherent in the situation, de-
veleped by the unfortunate public mis-
representations of the situation and ex-

"Willis Has Gone Ahead and Raised
Help Says an Official


New York, January 6.-An evening
Sun special despatch from Washington
says. willis has gone ahead and raised
hell.'' This was the undiplomatic, but
none the less expressive exclamation of
prominent administration official today
in connection with the latest news from
Hawaii. Secretary Gresham has received
a despatch from Honolulu, which was
brought to San Francisco by the revenue
cutter Corwin, which practically con-
firms the report which reached here
Thursday night via Auckland, that Will
lis had demanded the resignation of the
Provisional Government. Several mem
bers of Congress called at the State De-
partment this morning, and it is under
stood that Secretary Gresham confirmed
to them the information that Minister
Willis had proceeded to carry out his in
structions.

The word ANARCHY" does not ocsur
In the Bible but according to Rev. w.
Campbell, who so stated in his Sunday
evening sermon at the Free Methodist
Tabernacle. 1t has ranked a5 deprav-
ed natural element In the human dispc-
sltlon ever since Eve yielded to the
temptation in Paradise.
The cause and cure OF anarchy are
completely covered In the Bible 1t Is q
Greek word and means without q
head. lie. without government. 1t
recognizes no supreme power or law
Ito be obeyed. The germ OF what leads
to anarchy Is the disposition to thro W
off government. 1t loo often beg ms
in the family aud sometimes even
when the children are quite small.
1t Is natural to human nature to dis
obey. Adam and I've had no children
before their fall and those which came
after were afflicted by 1t. Hence the
natural depravlty of anarchy belongs
to us as au element in our human ma
lture. Mr.. Campbell succinctly re.
viewed scripturaI history and found
the cure of anarchy In the Gospel Of
Jesus Christ,
His application was brief. as he did
not recite the details OF the recent
crisis 30 generally known. Sometimes
some men, quietly and popularity uE.
observed, get laws passed for thei.'
own benefit at the expense OF others.
Laws should be obeyed until bad laws
are repealed. DO the best you can
and give open path to everybody else.
Tho text was james III. 10, IT, Is.
For where envying and strife are
there Ia confusion, etc. A text that
shows both the cause aud cure OF an.
Iarchy.

Ijoyed by his auditors.
