government to submit the question OF
her restoration to the United States,
some reference to some such under
standing would have existed for calling
the attention of the president to that
fact, and especially as she then knew
that her attorney would be seriously de-
layed in reaching Washington: but there
is not word from which such an un-
Outstanding can be predicted. The gov
eminent sent its commissioners 10 Wash
lngton for the sole purpose of securing
the continuation of the recommendation
by Minister Stevens of the new govern
ment, and to enter into negotiations for
political union with the United States.
The protest of the eX-queen, made on
Jan. II, is equally with the letter
DEVOID OF EVIDENCE
OF any mutual understanding for SUBJ
mission of her claim to the throne to the
United States. 1t is evidently pro-
test against the alleged action OF Minis
ter Stevens, as we'll as the new govern
ment, and contains a notice of her ap-
peal to the United States.
The document was received exactly rs
1T would have been received if it had
come through the mail. The indorSe-
ment of its receipt upon the paper was
made at the request of the individual
who brought it as evidence of its safe
delivery.
As to the ex-queen's notice of her APP
peal to the United States, it was a mat
ter of indifference TO us. Such an APP
peal could not have been prevented. as
the mail service was in operation as
usual.
That such notice and our receipt of
It without comment should be made a
foundation of claim that we have sub
mitted our right to exist as a govern
ment to the United States have never
occurred to US until suggested to US by
your government.
The protest of the eX-queen, already
published, is here quoted, and MIR. Dole
then proceeds: You may not be aware.

public. The words of these instructions
which refer to are as follows: 1.-THE

in the political or domestic affairs or in
the internal conflicts of the Hawaiian
islands other than as herein stated IRE
ferring to the protection of American
citiZens) or for the purpose of maintain
ing any treaty or other rights which
they possess"
The treaties between the two coun-
tries
CONFER NO RIGHT OF INTERFERENCE.
Upon what, then, Mr.. Minister, does
the president of the United States base
his right to interference? Your COM
munication is without information upon
this point. excepting such as may be
contained in the following brief and
vague sentences:
"She Ghe ex-queenl was advised and
assured by her ministers and leaders of
the movement for the overthrow of her
government that if she surrendered un-
der protest her case would afterwards
be fairly considered by the president OF
the United States. The queen finally
yielded to the armed forces of the
United States then qIartered in Homo
lulu. relying on the good faith and honor
of the president, when Informed of what
had occurred, to undo the action of the
minister and reinstate her and the
authority which she claimed as the con-
stitutional sovereign of the Hawaiian
islands.
"Also it beco mes my further duty to
advise you. sir, the executive of the
provisional government. aud your mln-
listers, of the presidents determination
of the question which your action and
that of the queen devolved upon him,
and you are expected to promptly relin-
quish TO her constitutional authority"
Understand that the first quotation is
referred to In the following words of
the second, (which your action and that
of the queen devolved upon him" (the
president of the United States), and
that the president has arrived att his
conclusions from Commissioner Blount's
report.

ernment than when

HE RECOGNIZED IT
without qualification, and, further, ae-
credited successfully two ENJOYS extra
ordinary and ministers plenipotentiary
to it, the eX-queen in the meantime
being represented in Washington by her
agent, who had full access to the depart
ment of state.
The whole business of the government
with the president of the United States
is set forth in the correspondence be-
tween the TWO governments and the
acts and statements of the minister of
this government at Washington and
the annexation commissioners accred-
tied to it. If we have submitted our
right to exist to the United States, this
act will appear in that correspondence,
and the acts of our ministers and COM
miSSonerS. Such agreement must be
shown as the foundation of the right of
your government to interfere, for an
arbitrator can be created only by the act
of the two parties.
The eX-queen sent her attorney to
Washington 10 plead her claim for re-
instatement in power, or, failing in
that. for a money allowance of dam
ages. This attorney was refused pass
age on the government dispatch boat
which was sent to San Francisco with
the annexation commissioners and their
message. The departure of this vessel
was less than two days after the new
government was declared, and refusal
was made promptly upon receiving the
request therefor, either on the day the
government was declared or on the next
day. If an intention to submit

of the eX-queen had existed, why should
her attorney have ueen refused passage

Mr.. Harrison, dated Jan. IS, two days
after the new government was pro-
claimed, makes no allusion to any UNI

here quotes the ex-quecn's letter, which
has been heretofore published. He then

might we'll be dismissed in single
word, but for the circumstances that
your communication contains, as it ap
pears TO me, misStatements and arrone-
Gus conclusions based thereon that are
so prejudicIal to this government that /,
cannot permit them to pass unchal-1
lenged; moreover, the Importance and
menacing character of this proposition
make il appropriate for me to discuss
somewhat more fully the questions
raised by it.
WE DO NOT RECOGNIZE THE RIGHT
of the president of the United States to
interfere in our domestic affairs. Such
right could be conferred upon him by
the act of this government, and by that
alone, or it could be acquired by con-
quest. This, l understand, to be the
American doctrine conSpicuously an
nounced from time to time by the au-
thorities of your government. President
jackson said in his message to congress
in 1886: 1.-The uniform policy and prac-
tice of the United States is to avoid all
interference in disputes which mostly
relate to the internal government of
other nations, and eventually to recog-
nize the authority of the prevailing
party, without reference to the merits
of the original controversy"
This principle of International law
has been consistently recognized during
the whole past int recourse of the two
countries, and was recently reconfirmed
in the instructions given by Secretary
Gresham to Commissioner Blount on
March IL, 1898, and by the latter pub.

examining this document, but from eX-
tracts published in the papers, and for
reasons set forth hereafter, we are not
disposed to submit the fate OF Hawaii
to its statements and conclusions. AS a
matter of fact. no member of the eX-
ecutive of the provisional government
has conferred with the eX-queen, either
verbally or otherwise, from the time the
new government was proclaimed till
now, with the exception OF one or two
notices which were sent to her by N.Y.
self, in regard to her removal from the
palace and relating to the guards which
the government first allowed her, and
perhaps others of like nature. l infer
that conversation which Mr.. Damon,
member of the advisory council, is
reported by Mr.. Blount to have had
with the eX-queen on Jan. IL, and which
has been quoted in the newspapers, is
the basis Of
THIS ASTOUNDING CLAIM
of the president of the United States of
his authority to adjudicate upon our
right as government to exist.
Mr.. Damon, on the occasion men,
toned, was allowed to accompany the
cabinet of the former government, which
had been in conference with US. What
Mr.. Damon said to the eX-Queen he said
on his Individual authority and did not
report it to US.
Mr.. Blount's report of his remarks on
that occasion furnished this government
its first information of the nature of
those remarks. Admitting, for argu-
men't sake. that the government
had authorized such assurances,
what was 'her case" that was
afterwards to "be fairly considered
by the president Of the United States?"
Was it the question of her right to sub
vert the Hawaiian constitution and TO
proclaim how one herself? or was 1t
her claim to be restored to the SOW
ereignty? or was it her claim against
the United States for the alleged unwar-
rantable acts of N mister Sevens? or
was it all these III the alternative? who
can say? But even if it had been all
of these. or any Of them. it could not
have been more clearly and finally de-
cided by the president Of the United

Won His Cabin Boy at Raffle.

Captain Barratt of the American bark Carrie Winslow has on board one of the strangest prizes ever captured ill a raff1e. It is nothing less than boy, a swarthy young Argentine, Juan Baptiste by name, whom the captain won in raffie at Buenos Ayres.
 Juan is only years old and was an inmate of a Spanish orphan asylum at Buenos Ayres when the Winslow reach ed there on her last voyage. Juan de- sired his liberty, but under the laws of the Argentine Republic that could only be secured by the payment of cash sum that would go to fund for the prosecution of persons taking out the orphans and then treating them badly, In Juan's case the amount required was $46, and in order to secure this the en. terprising boy decided to put himself up in a ratfle and sell the tickets himself. Captain Barratt became interested in the boy to the extent of $5 spent for tickets, and when the drawing was an- nounced was somewhat surprised to find himself the winner.
 The youthful prize has been installed on the Winslow as cabin boy, and though he has now been away from his native land several months shows no desire to return to it. He is bright and intelligent, and as he evinces decided disinclination to associate with the crew Captain Barratt treats him as one of his own family. y.-Philadolphia Record.

The nastructiya .Iacl.daw-

In a gentleman's park in the county of Durham, says an English writer, a number of pheasants are reared every year. The keeper. on going to feed them, was surprised to find the bodies of four of the young pheasants lying on the grass outside of the coops without heads. He made careful search for yer min, such as rats or weazels, but with out effect He left the dead pheasants for awhile, and on his return found a considerable number more disposed of in the same way. He was quite puzzled and resolved to seek assistance. Fully 20 young ones were disposed of, all in the sane way. After watching con- siderable time pair of jackdaws made their appearance and were not long in commencing their raid on the young ones again. They quietly dragged them out from below the hens and pulled their heads off and carried them to a clump of trees, where they had their nest with young ones, and fed them with the heads. AS soon as the keeper was satisfied that the jackdaws were the de. linquents he shot them.

Lycoming's Early Judiciary.

Fair Play Men" was the title given to a part of Lycoming county, Pa., now densely populated and dotted with prosperous towns and cities. The pro- prietary government, with a view to protecting the Indians from intrusion, had forbidden the survey and settle ment of the region. but some hard treat ed and hard handed Scotch Irish pio- neers found their way into the forbid den territory, and being outside the inn mediate jurisdiction of any properly constituted tribunal they chose three of their number to settle disputes and call ed them fair play men. The decisions of this tribunal, especially as to bound aries, were enforced by the whole com munity and came in time even to be re- spected by the courts. When chief justice of Pennsylvania asked one of the first pioneers what were the features of the fair play code, the pioneer is re- ported to have answered that since his honor's court had found its way into the region fair play had fled and law had taken its place - Philadelphia P1eaA

slree, dead Each had five cards Ill his hand, and Seth was clutching his last $20 as if he had just been calling Dan when he rolled over.
 "'And he'd "a won, too, howled Ryan as he looked at the hands Then Ryan wanted the match declared in favor of Seth, but the boys wouldn't have it. Bets were declared off and the game called a draw. Seth and Dan had used up 67 packs of cards, and their golden chips were worn as smooth as glass.
 We buried 'em side by side that day, but now comes the strangest part of the whole thing, and to. show you what stubborn critters they were-that night there was a light in the room where they had been playing, and as sure as I'm here there sat Dan and Seth as natural as life, a-flipping their cards and tossing their chips by the light of the ghostly candle. Maybe they didn't have that whole hotel to them selves. Sho! Iguess they did. Nobody d go nigh it. Hansen went around crying almost and saying he didn't see why two stubborn galoots couldn't stay where they were planted instead of com ing to haunt an honest mans house and ruin his business. But nothing seemed to interfere with the game. Every night for week Seth and Dan sat up playing while the whole Gulch gazed at the light in the window and shivered and swap ped ghost stories. At last Ryan one night said he had mind to see how the game stood, and he climbed up to peep in the window Just as he did so we saw. a flash of light shoot across the room, and three minutes afterward Hansen's place was in blaze.
 Ryan said that as he looked in the window Seth had caught Dan cheating and had thrown the candle at him. The place was burned to the ground, and Indian Gulch felt relieved to think that the ghosts were gone"
 "I should say so gasped one of the auditors. t # .t
 But sho as I'm here, gentlemen, there was bluish blaze seen around the ashes of the burned building the very next night, and there Seth and Dan, looking as if they were made of chalk, were observed sitting on pile of rocks that had been Hansen's chimney Tipping their cards as lively as ever.
 ''This was too much, and Indian Gulch was scared in good earnest. But some of us got together and decided that Seth and Dan must go We dug 'em up and carted lem five miles up a canyon and there buried 'em. We never saw them again in Indian Gulch, but soon afterward some prospectors came down from the hills and said that they had seen two ghosts sitting under tree and playing. But, sho, gentlemen, where are you going?''
 The shriveled old miner from Nevada turned as he followed the others in their nasty exit f
 ''I did think" he said, you'd have the decency to let them two cusses rest in their graves, but if you're going to yank lem all over the country, why, go it alone," and the Mariposa man was left with the barkeeper.
 Well, sho, I'm durned," muttered the narrator of Seth Cox's adventures. Reckon I'll go back to the Gulch to- morrow, where the folks are sociable and mannerly. "-San Francisco Call.
