--latest Hawaiian Correspondence
Transmitted to House by the
President.
Minister Willis Is Awaiting Further
Instructions From the Presi-
dent.
lresham Replies by Saying Nothing
Further Is to Be Done for
the Present.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The president
has transmitted to congress all corre-
spondence relating to Hawaii since his
last message. The message transmitting
additional correspondence is as follows:
To the Congress:
] transmit herewith copies of all dis
patches from our minister to Hawaii,
relating In any way to political affairs
in Hawaii, except such as have been
heretofore transmitted to congress. /
also send copies of instructions sent to
Minister Willis ON Jan. 12, 1894,
being the only instructions to
him that have not been sent
to congress. In my former message to
congress withheld dispatches number
ing three under date of Nov. 10, 1893,
and also dispatches No. 10, under date of
Oct. 3, 1898. Inasmuch as the contents
of dispatches No. are all referred to in
dispatches of more recent date, and in
asmuch as there seems to be no longer
reason for withholding it, the same is
herewith submitted. Dispatch No. ~
is still withheld for reasons that seem
justifable and proper.

Five Cent Lodging Houses Where Chairs
Take the Place of Beds.

Five Gent AOuGbng houses w mere SnAAFH
Take the Place of Beds.
Finding lodging place for the night
when one has but ) cents-an ordinary
street car fare nickel--is no easy job.
Lodging houses where the beds rent for
10 cents hold as grimly to tariff prices
as coal combine IN arctic weather
would do. Ii is case of fat money
with those people. If they had 500 beds
and but five dodgers, the sixth could not
get an abatement, even though his flesh
were dropping from his bones with
frost. NO pay, no bed. /" is the motto,
and they stick to it.
Nowadays dimes are being with
drawn from circulation. At least the
people who are forced into begging
them report that to be the state of the
money market. Two nickles make a
dime, it is true, and SO do 10 pennies,
but there seems to be bear movement
in small coins, and this form of cur
| rency also is hard to get, especially SO
| for those who either cant. don't or
won't work for it.
/ AS matter of fact there are many
hundred persons in Chicago every night
who cannot purchase lodging for lack
! of means and who stay out SO late that
access to the station houses is denied
because they are already ove2crowded.
These people will then sleep anywhere.
| All they want is cover from the night.
That can te had in Chicago for 3
cents. But the lowest tramp, if for
tune favored him with dime, would
shrink with horror from lodging in
such place. There are one or two
places of the kind i'll Chicago. and they
are hard 10 fnd. When found, they are
the very apotheosis of degradation, dirt
and dinginess. Beside the 8 cent places
those where admittance is dime are
palaces. For s cents the lodger is al
lowed the privilege of II chair until
morning - simply that and nothing
more.
The keepers Of such places form the
lowest elements of society. They do
not treat their patrons as humans, nor
vet as beasts of the field. The cent
wretch becomes an object for blows and
kicks. When his nickel enters the greasy
pocket that gapes for it. he is then an
l
atom of squaIor. and he is treated &C.
cordingly.
Recently the Atlas hotel was visited.
1t is probably the worst lodging house
in Chicago. The prices begin at cents

Is true that the provisional government

PEKING ARRIVES.
The Overdue Steamer. Which Was
Anxiously Awaited. Reaches San
Francisco.
She Brought News That Nothing I'M
portant Had Happened Since Last
Adyices.
Minister Thurston Was Not on Board
but May Be on the Australia Just
Sighted.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 15.-The disap-
pointed sensation seekers were treated
TO surprise at 9:15 q. m. AT that mo-
ment the watchers caught glimpse of
the long-delayed City of Peking, six miles
out. Although wait of several hours
was in prospect before anying definite
in the way of fresh information could be
hand from the steamer, and, therefore,
from Hawaii, excitement was renewed
in the city and everything was astir on
the Corwin. Government officials,
newspaper men, merchants and the
community in general were on the qui
vive, probably more than at any time
since the first startling intelligence of
the revolution at Honolulu.
Bets were numerous as to whether or
not there had been fighting. with odds
even.
The Peking arrived in port at II a.
m, and it was then learned that moth
ing important had occurred since the
sailing Of the Warrimo on Jan. 1, ex-
! cept that the reply of President Dole to
the United States minister had been
given to the press. The Associated
Press correspondent says there has been
some differences between the American
league and the executive council, but
not such as will probably lead to serious
controversy. As put by the radicals it
seems to be question whether the cor
porations representing the sugar planta-
tions shall rule the country or whether
the government shall be carried out by
a majority of the loyal citizens of Ha-
waii. No real crisis has yet arisen, and
should such arise it will probably be
averted by vacancy being created in
the councils which will be filed by a
popular representative of the people.
