A BRITISH PLOT.
inside of Last Conspiracy to
Restore Queen Lii.
British Commissioner Hawes lmpIi-
Gated in Scheme.
Story Told by the Man Hired TO Plan The
Revolution.

san Francisco, Dee 9.-Thc inside facts
of the last plot To upset the Hawaiian Re
public and restore cx- Queen Liliuokalani
are told to me by stephen Nj. katzcr, who
was one of the plotters being hired by the
Royalists to plan the attack and lead IT,
The important and significant part OF the
story deals with the attitude of British
Commissioner Hawcs, the successor Of
Minister Wodohousc, who, according To
KatZcr and others in the plot, virtually
promised to land marines and bluciackctS
from II. B Nj. ship Hyacnth and indi-
rectly help tho Royalists il they could seize
and hold the old palace, now used as II
barracks, where the government archives
are. The prctcXt was To he that troops
were needed to protect British subjects
and their property.
Katzcr is an eX-soldicr with record,
having served in the Austrian army, and
lately as corporal of light battery, United
States of America, 40 the PrcsidiO His
term ended in August, and he started at
once to Honolulu, taking the steamer ON
which We're Meidemann and Parker, the
Royalist cnvoys. returning from Washing
ton. They learned his purpose, and hired
him to help organize a, revolution. katzcr
was put ON the mounted police force, SO
that he could study the garrison system
at the palace. His chiefs We're Major
Samuel Nolan, formerly commander of
the Queens guard, ana W. II. Ricards. II
ScOtchnan. II was the latter who secured
the British commissioners promise of
support.
The attack came the nearest to being
made on the night of October 90. katzcr,
in his police uniform, was to gain access
to the palace and get the gates open. Then
II hundred or so rcyolutiunists with rifles
and rcvolvcrs were to ovcrpowcr the
guards engage the garrison and capture
the cannon on the porch, while five small
squads arrested the cabinet ministers. The
Royalist leaders lacked nerve and money
and could not get men enough at once.
While they delayed, the plot was partly
discovered and the consprators had to get
away TO avoid arrest.
Wcidcmann is now in Europe, or on his
way there, hunting for men and money to
help the Royalists. katzer says that the
Roynlists will never upset the republic,
but that Hawaii viii before long be the
scene of a revolution growing out Of the
bitter disscnsions of the two factions i'm
the government party, one favoring an
exation to the United States and the other
holding out for independence.
Commissioner Hawes is diplomat of
some repute, having served recently in
Japan He is still called the Father of
the Chinese Navy, having supervised its
reorganization shortly after the Tao Ping
rebellion. Ho has given repeated evidence
Of sympathy with the Roylists, but not
since England recognized the Island re-
public.
