"sHE" KNEW.

the plaster of paris shells taken at
Washington place, has been found
upon the private desk of Liliuoka-
lani This seems to connect her
directly with the dynamite plot.
c. B. Wilson and DIR. Mcclellan
called upon Mrs. Dominis this
morning. Mr.. Wilson had talk
of several minutes with President
Dole.
Electric lights have been added
to the prison, and with some of her
old furniture Mrs. Dominis is quite
comfortable.
Liliuokalani must have felt what
was coming. On Tuesday night
she asked one of her advisors to say
to the Government that she would
do anything they asked. She was
willing to sign any agreement, to
relinquish all claims to the crown
and crown lands, to give up her
personal property if required.
"sHE" HAD AN ARSENAL
Liliuokalani Dominis has been
caught redhanded with a we'll
equipped arsenal in her possession.
Some Of the material for destruc-
ton of life and property found
upon her premises, Washington
Place, links her with the damnable
plot.
At $50 o'clock Wednesday night
Senior Captain Robert Parker left
the Station house with two native
policemen and wagon. Volun-
teers for the venture pressed for
ward but their services were re-
fused.
In a few minutes it became
noised around police headquarters
that Parker had gone to Washing
ton Place. 1t was also stated that
prisoner had disclosed the fact
that arms had been hidden there.
Parker and his men found over
thirty natives at the house.
Identifying the parties they ad-
vanced to the garden in the rear of
the premises and to spot indicated
by their prisoner. Here they dug
down about four feet and unearth-
ed the arsenal.
The munitions were taken to the
Station house.
Nearly all was in bags. The
first bag contained bombs, twenty
one in number. They were spread
out on the marshal's table. Sixteen
Of them were in cement, four in
iron and very large one in CO.
coanut shell. All had one minute
fuses. They were evidently to be
thrown into crowds of people by
hand or sings. Doubtless the iron
cased ones were intended for Cen
trail Union church.
The guns were then brought in.
Some were little rusty, but their
locks worked all right.
Of the rifles there were thirteen
Springfelds, twenty Winchesters
and one odd. All fine weapons.
Eleven large pistols in good order
were in the lot. Five fine swords,
for the officers, were carefully
wrapped in gunny sacks.
Then came the cartridges. This
was a revelation. There were
thirty-eight belts for rifles and eight
for pistols, all full. Several extra
belts were empty. Bags and boxes
contained about one thousand car
tridges fitting the various weapons.
The bombs and guns were care
fully examined by members of the
Cabinet and officers of the army.
General surprise was expressed al
the extent of the collection and the
evident purpose of the person
boarding the, munitions. The
bombs were carefully marked and
put away. The guns and cart
ridges were put aside and will be
brought into service if needed.
, Members of DR.. Woods squad
closely guarded Washington place
till daylight. Then Captain Nc
Stocker Captain Murray, Captain
Hilbus, John M. Vivas< and others
went up from the Station and ar

grounds.
