President Dole. of Hawaii. Makes Some
F'riendly Remarks.


San Francisco, Feb. 15;-Advices ar
rived today from Honolulu to February
3, via steamer Alameda. President
Dole's answer to Minister Willis, giving
specifications regarding the former let.
ter Of December 27. which was asked for
by Willis, has been published, explain
ing the previous statement that the
United States policy has been RESPONSE
sional forces, and the state of alarm
which existed through Hawaii is due
to the failure of the United States to
advise the Hawaiian government of its
intended action. President Dole says:
Information came from royalists in con-
stant communication with you that the
restoration of the queen was certain,
and that the United States government
would use force If necessary to accom-
plish this. In explaining why he ac-
cused the United Satetes government of
unfriendly actions, President Dole cited
the fact that Willis had refused to for
ward Honolulu advices by the Corwin,
and closed by saying: II cannot but
believe that the attitude OF the United
States toward Hawaii has arisen
through a misunderstanding of the
facts on the part Of your government,
and a mutual misapprehension Of mo-
tives and intentions, which will, 1 trust,
at an early day be cleared away"

had been overlooked by both Mr.. GilC
and his attorneys, Fulton Bros; that
success was assured. and that as soon
as he received $50 wherewith to pur-
chase a railroad ticket he would start
for home.
The money was sent, but since then
no news has been received either of Mr.
Clarke or his whereabouts.

together he will ask for a continuance.
Mr.. Hayden is out in the neighbor-

Another of the stories that are afioat
regarding ClarlSe's methods of raising
money is that he persuaded a Russian,
whose sister was on board an Atlantic
steamer which had been quarantined at
New York, to give him $45 with which
to bring suit against Uncle Sam for
illegal detention" When the steamer
was released from quarantine Clarke
claimed to have been instrumental in
accomplishing the release, and on the
strength of that endeavored to get more
money from the guileless fisherman.
Clarke was the worst champertor that
ever practiced law in Pacific county,
and during his stay in Ilwaco the legal
fraternity were kept fairly busy. Now

Dalton, it is said, claims that his prac-
tlce will be worth s1,5Oo year less on
