CRISIS IN HAWAII.
A Letter Prom 3. Z. Wilcox Which
Indieates d Very Serious Condl-
tion Of Affairs,
Asserted That o Bloody Revelation
Will Certainly Follow the Fail-
ure Of the Senate
To Endorse the Views of Mr.. Cleve-
and--Chinese and Japs Would
Help Hawaiians.

WASHINGTON. May e.--Probably b. few
members Of congress realize just how
strained the situation in Hawaii Is.
today, and what exciting news we are
likely to receive from there shortly after
the adjournment. IL not earlier. A letter
dated April o, Just received by @. g
Moran from Il. i. Wilcox Of Honolulu,
puts the case in this way:
Every Hawaiian expects to learn OF
the final decision OF the Hawaiian ques-
tion on the arrival of the steamer Mari
posa, which is expected on the 18th.
The Hawaiians
Lock Only For Fair Play
on the part of the senate. They ask
simply that the senate will support
Cleveland's policy FOR the restoration OF
the statu quo ante the 10th Of January,
1892, when Stevens, the lingo represen-
tative OF the United States. overthrow
the legitimate government, and estab-
Gshed missionary oligarchy which =
a curse to Us and a disgrace to modern
civilization. Hawaiians are keeping
the peace, Notwithstanding the insults
they have received from the provisional
government. for they wish 10 show
every regard and courtesy to President
Cleveland and his administration.
A bloody Revelation wili Foifow
IL the senate fails in it's duty, and throws
contempt upon the honor. integrity and
justice OF the policy OF the chief magis-
trate Of the United States towards Ha-
waii Whatever the senate may do,
you may be assured that I will do my
duty to my country. and that very soon.
8. nj. Damon, minister OF finance of
the provisional government, has given
his assurance to SamuelsP Parker that the
provisional government would retire in
q body and surreder control OF the
kingdom to the queen, as soon IS II
learned that the senate approves Of
President Cleveland,s policy. The
scheme os the provisional governmeut
for inducing the Hawaiiaps 70 fCxswsAx
their tndHpsndeuce and forsake their
queen turrs ont d completes failure.
Chinsse and JaPansse Organise.
The Chinese aaYe organized as . body
to secure the restoration OF the queen.
in case tie United States senate fails to
do justice, The Japanese have taken
the same course. These, bear in mind,
are all apart from the Hawaiians Them
selves, and from the white foreigners.
The Hawaiians are going to hold q mass
meeting next Monday to denounce the
fraudulent constitutional convention and
the mock republic set up by the mis-
sionaries."

where the three leaders Or the common
veal. Coxey. Browne and Jones, are ON
trial, for their May Day demonstration
at the Capitol
The first witness for the defense was
Mr.. Frank Harper, ayoung newspaper
man from Alexandria, Va. According
to his story the police had driven the
citizens ON the grass before the process
sion arrived, in order to clear the path
ways. He saw General Coxey arrive.
The general wore nothing designed 10
draw notice to his organization. but
walked so quietly to the steps that he
was not recognized until the people who
knew him pointed him out. Thirteen
police stood on the steps and surrounded
the general when he arrived.
coxey Kept On the GrasS.
The witness was certain that Coxey
had not walked on the grass. On cross
examination he said that there there
were fifty or sixty thousand people
waiting, all cheering and whooping for
Coxsy.
"Disorderly, weren't theyT' inquired
the district attorney. vi
''Oh, no. They had right to cheer;
they were American citizens"
The police came near running down q

He had been ordered of the asphalt
streets by them two or three times, but
retui ned every time.
.'Tnen you disobeyed the police, said
the district attorney.
1.-The police are not the law. They
are the agents of the people to carry out
the law" was the reply.
Other witnesses testified in the same
vein.
Mr.. Coxey was put on the stand and
testified as to his object in visiting the
Capitol. which he said was present two
petitions to congress. He also testified
