The Atlanta constitution. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1885-19??, 1894-01-09

the state department yesterday has been
patch, which came by the Corwin, as it
fuiiy confirmed the news received by the
Associated Press.
1t seems that the queen has reconsidered
her objections to acceding to the condi-
lions eXacted and that Minister Willis has
proceeded on the line of his original in
structons, notifying the provisional gov
eminent that they are expected to retire
in order to allow the restora ton of the
queen. Nothing can be learned as to the
extent of the disturbance caused by this
action. but that there is condition or
contention and great excitement III Homo
lulu is certain.
The STATE. Department. Puzzled.
This news Is q surprise as much to the
state department as was that Minister
Willis had failed to carry out his instruc-
lions. Owing to the refusal of the queen
to accede to the conditions, the disappo.nt-
ment felt by the department can be meas
ured by the terms used to discredit the
Auckland dispatch. 1t was said that the
news was impossible in the. light of Minis
ter Willis's instructions and the presidents
message and that rumors must have been
set afoat in Honolulu with the deliberate
purpose OF throwing discredit upon the
good faith OF President Cleveland.
Representative Raynor, of Maryland, who
is to speak for the administration in the
house, was an early visitor at the state
department this morning and was closeted
with Secretary Gresham for some time
Senator Gray. of Delaware, who is the
spokesman for the Hawaiian policy, on the
floor OF the senate, came later and had q
state.
Involves Serious Consequences.
There is no doubt that all concerned feel
that this latest phase of the Hawaiian 1m-
broglio involves many serious consequences
It does not appear that there IS any dis
position on the part Of the provisional gov
eminent to yield peaceably and there IS no
apprehension that Minister Willis proposes
to resort to force. His Instructions are ex-
piGitly eganst such zen course fo
have acted with bad Judgment In having
thus attempted to pursue q policy which
had been defined under conditions very dlf-
ferent from those under which he acted.
