THERE'S GREAT ANXIETY
The Capitol Full Of Wild Rumors About
Bloodshed In Hawaii.
RETURN OF THE CORWlN
She Brinss Cipher Dispatches to
Gresham. Who Refuses to Di-
vulge Their Contents-No
More News Obtainable.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 5.-The Corwin
has arrived. Her commander refused to
give any information or allow anyone on
board to talk. She is now on her way 10
the Mare island navy yard, ID miles away.
An officer, probably bearing government
dispatches, landed in small boat.
The only thing bearing the appearance
of news from the Corwin 10 tho report that
n sailor on that vessel said to reporter
who tried to board her: There's been o
big row down there" The statement 10
not verified.
BY the exercise of a little brief author
ity Captain Munger, OF the United States
revenue cutter Corwin, has made himself
to-day one OF the most unpopular men on
the Pacific coast. Especially has the rev.
enue officer disgustcd the newspaper men
by his churlishness. As rule navy men
and officers connected with the revenue
service cheerfully impart any information
not In conflict with naval etiquette to
newspaper men and the action of Munger
to-day stands out In dark relief against q
white background Of years of courteous
demcanor on the part OF other officers Of
his profession.
The reason for Munger's action i'm re-
fusing TO allow any communication with
the vessel Is probably chagrin nj tho fact
that the sailing of the Corwin for Honolulu
from here was announced in the newspa.
pers two days before she sailed. Munger
made strenuous efforts 10 conceal the fact
that he was going to Honolulu. and even
after the newspapers published the news,
emphatically denied that Honolulu was
his destination. This time lie
p.rt1 nj In
with the newspa pers and the public, and is
taking no chances that will allow informa.
tion of any kind TO leak out. No one
would think Of asking Munger the con-
tents Of the official dispatches, even II be
knew them, which is not probable, but the
people here wonder why a man, whose
salary they help pay, should be so churiish
i'm his treatment of them. They argue
that the news of what has happened in
Honolulu. except that transmitted in the
government dispatches, is not the private
property of the state department or of the
held from them.
II is believed that tho Corwin brought
the answer of the provisional government
to Willis demand to surrender. That re
ply Is undoubtedly already i'm the hand.
of the state department at Washington
and from present indications Washington
will have to be looked to for news. Ha
waiian Consul Wilder tonight expressed
the belief that the Corwin had his govern
ment's answer, and when asked what bs
thought that answer was. said: ~ thinl
the provisional government has informed
Willis that it considers the Hawaiian
question in the hands Of congress and vii

that body"

objection to tho man personally, but boz
cause the principle was opposed. The
light this timc will open with the Oregon
appointment, and both Mitchell and
Dolph have said that they intend to OBJ
ject to sending sppointees from tho East
and South into their states. II 10 believed
that all western men will support them.
II is claimed by those who support the ad-
ministration in tho matter of Indian
agents, not state appointments, that In
dian agencies are purely under federal
control and that appointees cau DO sent
from any section Of tho country to & oycrn
the agencies.

VALLEJO, Jan. 5.-A naval officer. when
asked when the Corwin left Honolulu, said
the Corwin is considered a speedy cutter
and should make Honolulu easy in II
days. "She is q faster boat than the
Rush and my opinion is that Willis held
the Corwin at least two days after the
Alameda sailed for New Zealand. This
being the situation, II is more than prob
able that clash has occurred between
the powers. and that the mission of the
Corwin IL to tell the tale OF the rejection
of Cleveland's overtures by the provis-
ional government. IT would not surprise
us, for letters from officers OF the Phla-
delphia and Adams, which are there. in.
dicate that IL tho policy is forced on Dole
he will resort to arms"
On board the Mohican everything Is i'm
readiness to sail in one days time, should
IL bc required. AL that remains to be
done ON the Mohican is to replace the
ships galley. The Mohican men are be-
ing thoroughly drilled, and to-day Captain
Clark had o landing. The party was fully
equipped for field service, supported by
hospital corps and field pieces. The land
inc party was out nearly all day, skirmish-
ishing over the reservation. This is an
unusual occurrence here, and since the
news of the Corwin's advent it Is whis-
pered that there was more in the landing
than mere drill. Tho Mohicans maga-
Zines were rcplenished yesterday and the
coal bunkers are full TO overhowlng.
The significant fact remains that the
navy department apprehends trouble, and
that il is on the alert ID conveyed by tho
fact that while repairs could be made on
| the cruiser Boston. which recently went
| out of commission, nothing has boon done
and her complement Of sailors is being
held ready on board Of the receiving ship
Independence.
At the marine barracks tie excitement
was AT fever pitch when it was said that
the Corwin camo for a detachment of
marines. 1t was learned nj the marine
barracks that the total available strength
of the arni-bcaring force at the navy yard
is nearly 200. and that. 10 required. 400

non-pariicipants In the trouble.
In his letter of Nov. " Willis tells of q
visit OF a committee representing the
American league. TO whom he said that il

abroad to execute tho will of their gov
ernment. Nothing was said, however. as
to the instruction of our government.
The last message of Willis is dated Dec.

ROLL CALLS INNUMERABLE
Democrats Are Helping
Out the Repubiicans-The Popu-
lists Hold the Balance
of Power.


WASHINGTON. Jan. 5.-Thc power of the
committee on rules was invoked to-day to
break down obstruction IN the path of
tariff debate. An ironclad order was
brought in setting out the programme for
the debate and fixing Jan. 25 for taking
tho final vote. This resulted only in side
tracking Boutclic and tho Hawaiian rcso-
luton. for when tho vote was taken OH
the adoption of the order, the democrats
lacked nine votes of q quorum. At least
20 democrats at the capitol either abb
sented themselves from the hall or re-
fused TO answer TO their names when
called. For four hours the democratic
leaders tried with roll call after roll call
10 bring the men into line. but instead Of
gaining they lost votes on each successive
roll call. The populists. with the ex-
ception of Bell of Colorado, also declined
10 aid tho democrats TO get the tariff bill
before the house. giving az q reason the
short limit il was proposed to set on tho
debate. Their votes would have made up
a quorum. To-day's proceedings are,
therefore. of additional importance
as marking the first time in
the history of either branch
of congress since tho organization of the
third party that it's members have held he
balance of power.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal the row began. Boutclle was on
his feet clamoring for recoen ition TO call
up the Hawaiian resolution, but the
speaker recognized Catcbings from tho
committee on rulcs TO present special
order lust before tho house convened.
Boutelle largely insisted upon knowing
