AFFAIRS AT HONOLULU.
RESTORATION OF THE MONARCHY
SET FOR JUNE 1ST.
Election OF Delegates to the Constitu-
tfonal COnvention-Ex-M Marshal
Wtlaen Arrested for
Mayhem.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Honolulu. May 81. (psr steamer Ala.
media. via San Francisco, May 10.-A
number of prominent Royalists have set
June 1st as restoration day. 1t is stated
that they expect to, be fully armed by
that time, and if no help is received
from the United States, they intend to
make an attack on the provisional gov
eminent. The government officials take
no stock in the rumor. however. The
sand bags, which have surrounded the
executive building ever since last De-
cember, have been removed, and the
military force is being gradually reduced.
The election for delegates to the con-
stitutional convention was held yester-
day, and passed off in a very quiet
manner. No Royalist candidates were
in the field and, consequently, no special
interest was taken in the election. Tn
American Union party had five candi-
dates and six others ran Independently.
OF the regular ticket three were elected,
one of whom, A. X. Knnuiakea, is a
deHcendent of the old reigning family,
the Kamehamehas, and the last Of his
race.
The cumulative ballot system was
used, and FLAG votes were cast. AS each
voter was allowed votes. rhe total vote
Was 1891 out of possible 100. The
Portuguese voted solidly for their two
candidates and elected both. Returns
from the other islands are not yet in,
but as there was very little opposition
to the American Union party ticket no
copteat is expected.
@. B. Wilson, the ex-qusen's marshal,
has been arrested on charge of being
accessory before the fact in mayhem
case. wilson, who was present at q
barroom fight in which though" Roy
alist and an Annexatonist were the
principals is said to have encouraged his
Royalist friend. advising him to "kill
the Anaexstionist." During the melee
the Royallst bit piece out of his oppo-
nent's ear. Wilson is suspected of hav'
ing melted the fight. He was released
on $1,000 bail. His trial comes up to-.
day.
Admiral Walker and his staff have
been spending considerable time at Pearl

The Connellsville Region Again Wildly
Excited.
UNIoNTowN, Pa, May 10.-Not since
the beginning of the strike, not even in
connection with the wild scenes attend
ing the killing of Engineer Paddock,
has there been such excitement as is
developing tonight in the region, par
ticularly in the southern end, or the
Fayette county section. The introduce
tion OF outsiders to take the places OF
the striking coke workers has been com.
menced. The strikers. especially the
Slavs and the Poles, are simply furious.
They were startled and enraged today
by the actual appearance of an advance
guard of workmen. consisting of two
carloads of strangers, who have been run
into the Norwood plant of the H. G..
Prick Coke company, who are engaged
to 60 to work at the old rates, and most
of them are reported as experienced.
Late tonight it is generally believed the
hurried preparations being made,
keeping the strikers up and on
the alert. look to an attack in
such force that the deputies on guard
will be swept away in case the new men
really try to go to work by daybreak.
The situation is alarming, as 10, 900
men are expected at Scottdale, and it is
not probable the leaders will be able to
keep them within bounds.

ADVICES FROM SAMOA.
NO MORE FIGHTING AMONG THE
NATIVES.
Peace Restored by the American, Brit

by the British and Ger

Corrsspondence Of the AssecIeted Press.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
APIA, Samos, April rs (per steamer
Alameda, via San Francisco. May 10).-
No fighting among the natives has oc-
cured since the last correspondence.
Last Sunday night q great scare was
caused by information that the rebel
party was in the brush about two miles
from Apia, and was about to attack the
town. The natives made immediate
preparations to resist, while the foreign.
ers arranged to board the ships in the
harbor. Both the British and German
war vessels got ready, and had armed
parties prepared to land. 1t wRs then
discovered that the entire excitement
had been caused by the fears of one or
two individuals, who had seen q small
party OF armed men in the brueh and
had magnified them into an army.
The German war ship Fake arrived
here April 18th, after 8 quick passage
from Sydney, having been cent to pro-
E sfT sshBa atisss Arrived April 2ls to

1t is confidently believed that their pres
snce will be effective in preventing

The cessation OF hOstilities among the
natives is principally due to the united
efforts of the American, British and
German consuls, who have shown a
marked capacity for desling with the
difficulties OF an unpleasant situation.
They persuaded both parties of natives
to return to their homes, and. though
the feeling of discomfort among the ma
tiyes is ss strong as ever, the probability
of further hostilities now appears to be
remote.
Much indignation is felt here ct a
slanderous attack on Chief Justice Ide,
ia a cablegram from Auckland, April
Sd. II was stated that the chief justice
and his treatment of certain prisoners
was the cause of the wer. The CORES
pondent of the Associated Press is able
to say these statements have no founda-

inspired by personal or political malice,
