CASTLE ON HAWAII.

Saws President Cleveland Would Not

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Before
starting on his return trip to Hawaii

ed himself very freely as to the future
prospects of his country. "Inasmuch
as | was born in Hawaii" said Mr..
Castle, 81 am full fiedged Kanaka,
and naturally interested in every
thing pertaining to my cOuntry's well

will be source of pride as well as
pleasure to tell the representatives OF

were never better for amicable rela-
tons between Hawaii aud the United
States. Although have not

White House, my information is such
as to lead me TO believe that any
measures taken 10y Congress regard
ing Hawaii will be promptly sane
toned by President Cleveland.
Should bill pass the two bouses OF
the National Legislature favoring an
uexation or any other course of proce-
dure toward Hawaii, there need be no

ecutive Mansion.
"Our people are very much encour-

the message of President Cleveland on

them the assurance against further

Cleveland Does Not Favor An
nexation of the Islands.
SO SAY THE KNOWING ONES.
Report From Hawaii Concerning it De-
MED by Minister Observation-Disclosures
Castle Believes President Would Not
Veto Annexation Bill If it Passed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-Presi-
dent Cleveland will not favor the an;
nexa'iou of the Hawaiian Islandss
This, at any rate, is the opinion ex-
pressed by men who are in position
to know something about his views
respecting the matter.
A few weeks ago dispatches were
sent out from Washington to various
newspapers that Cleveland had
changed bis views regarding the Ha-
waiian controversy, and that in his
annual message to Congress he would
recommend the annexation of the
islands. It was not believed in diplo-
matte circles that he would take any
such position, and it is not believed
that he will favor any such scheme in
the future. The rumor of his alleged
change of front has never been re-
garded as having any foundation in
fact. The latest report regarding this
matter comes from Hawaii. The
President is still on his duck hunting
trip, and no information, therefore,
can be obtained from him or his official
associates
So far as can be ascertained, the
officials of the Hawaiian Government
IN Washington have no Information
about this report. The Hawaiian
Minister, Mr.. Hatch, said today that
no communication of this kind had
been made to him by his Government
else it would have been telegrapbed
from San Francisco yesterday, when
the steamer arrived from the islands.
Frank P Hastings, Secretary of the
Legation, also asserted that If such
proposition had been made by Presi-
dent Cleveland it was news TO him,
and expressed the opinion that if such
a move was contemplated the Pfesi-
dent would have said something about
| it in his message to Congress. Suff1-
cieut time has not elapsed since the
message was submitted for any COM
municatiou TO have been sent to Ha-
waii and report of II to come back TO
| this country, and for this reason Mr..
| Hastings was incliued to doubt the
correctness of the report.

Another DeviIish Plot Against the
Hawaiian Republic.
THE SCHEME NIPPED IN THE BUD.
\ Foreigner Ordered Away From the
Islands said TO Be Maker of Com
bustibIes-SecondC Contemplated Up
rising in Hawaii-Quick Departure.

VANCOUVER B. c., Dec. 10
a plot against Hawaii has come to
light in China, according TO advices
received by the Empress of India,
which arrived from the Orient to-
night.
An American who located at Ho-
nan, China, ostensibly to work up a
business, and resided there for some
months, suddenly took tripto Hong
kong on November 2Sth, and, return :
ing a fortnight later, closed his estao
lishment aud departed for good. The
house was afterward found to contain
empty bomb cases, some dynamite
fuse and detonators and traces We're
found of the manufacture of dynamite
bombs.
The foreigner, it is reported, had
been ordered aW ay from the Hawaiian
islands for conspiring against the
Government there, and had taken up
temporary residence in Canton. The
reason for his hasty departure is DO
doubt due to warning. Part of the
time he had a partner, but the latter
left some weeks previous to the clos
ing up of the business.
The China Press says: During
the war between Japan and China an
American on his way to China to sell
to the Chinese Government an 1nven-
ton with which to blow up the Jap
anese ships was arrested while pass
ing through Japan, but was after
wards released. The nature of his in
vention was never disclosed, but it Is
pretty certain the secret had been dis
covered, which explains the exist
ence of the bomb factory at Honan.
"Skilled mechanics who worked tol
the tomb fiend claim that they did
not know what their employers were
going to do with the bombs. How
ever, il is a foregone conclusion from
the researches of the authorities that
the bombs were being Manufactured
by two alleged Americans, and for nc
! other purpose than to use in second
contemplated uprising in Hawaii. IL
was not the abandonment of the
scheme by their friends at Honolulu,
| but word sent to the authorities by
the secret police, which are thick a!
! lies in Japan, that may have nlppet
the scheme in the bud.

important Change Of Policy by the
Island Government.
DENIAL MADE BY CONSUL WILDER.
Prohibition of the Drug Ineffective.
Much Desired Revenue by LeSaliZ-
ing Dope Trafhc-Coast SmuGgIers
Exercised Over the Macter-Cargo.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19.-Fed-
eral officials in this city have received
we'll authenticated and definite in
formation that il is the purpose of the
Hawaiian Government to legalize the
importation of opium into the islands
under heavy duties. This decision is
the first sweeping effect of the at
tempt of local smugglers to land the
cont .aband cargo of the schooner
Henrietta at the Sandwich Islands.
The Island Republic had placed an
absolute prohibition upon the con-
sumption or importation of opium.
The deadly drug could not be taken
into the islands at any cost, although
under the reign of Kalakaua the Gov
eminent had received a yearly reve-
nue. of SIOO 600 in duties upon opium
alone.
This indicated a tremendous con-
sum ption and the possibilities of great
profit for smugglers, who learned very
quickly that the Hawaiians preferred
the drug of California preparation to
any other.
When the magnitude of the scheme
became known TO the Government at
Honolulu a serious discussion of the
situation followed. 1t was not pleas
ant prospect to receive into the islands
as contraband the very drug that had
been sold in OIder that il might be
taken out of the country. 1t was seen
that policy of prohibition was doing
no good while at the same time the
Government was sacrificing revenue
which might legiIimately enrich its
/ treasury.
The natives were determined TO
secure the drug; and smugglers or
oauiZed in THIS city and in Victoria
| were daring enough TO supply 1t. The
Federal officials in this city have
learned that the discussion of this
| affIir by the Government at Honolulu
has resulted in a purpose to take OF the
prohibition upon OPIUM and place the
drug upon the dutiable list of imports.
This step is considered of very great
| importance here, as 1t Will have ten
deucy to weaken the smuggling ring,
which has always been superior to the
efforts of the Customs officers. The
ring exists, but as Its plotting involves
no violation OF American laws, It's
members cannot be molested by Fed
eral officers. The only aid which 1t Is
within the province of the United

story Denied.
Federal authorities contradict the
statements of a morning paper in al
article on opium i'll Hawaii, wherein
it was said that the Hawaiian Gov
ernment intends to tax opium snC
that official Information to that effect
had been received by Federal Officials
here.
"There has been no such informa-
ton received here" said Collector
Wise, and his statement was corro
bOrated by Officers Jerome ant
Ruddell.
Consul Wilder said that the Ha
waiian Government has given out M
such Information; that President Dol
and his Cabinet oppose the lntroduc
ton of opium under any system o
taxation, and that 10 such bill ha
been introduced at any time.

A SMALL CHECK,
Four Cents Fee For Twenty-eight
Years OF Professional Service.
From dc AlbanY Argns.

From the Albany Argus.
Perhaps one of the smallest checks ever
issued by the United States government
and one of the smallest fees ever received
by any attorney, was received yesterday
by Daniel j. OBrien of Is Iafavette
street, who received a check from the
United States navy office, drawn on the
Assistant United States treasurer at New
York, for the sum of four cents. This
hceck has story attached to it. During
the war Mr.. O'Brien was an officer on a
cruiser of the northern navy, on which
Richard w. Allen, also of Albany, was a
landsman. At the close of the war the
government distributed among the seamen
of the navy prize money made by selling
vessels captured during the war. In the
distribution Allen, who, with O'Brien.
left the navy at the end of the war, was
omitted. O'Brien acting as Aliens attor-
ney, sent in a claim for prize money to
the navy department in 1867, and since
then, through the succeeding twenty
eight years, he pressed Aliens claim at
intervals. To each demand sent in the
navy department responded that the mat
ter was under consideration.
Yesterday the postmaster handed Mr..
OBrien a letter from the navy depart
ment. Mr. O'Brien opened it, and there
lay the check he had been expecting for
twenty-eight years. He glanced hastily
at the figures on the precious slip of paper
and thought they read "$l00." He glanced
at the letter accompanying it and read
that the amount was -four cents" for at
torney's fees. Mr.. O'Bren sought out his
client, Allen, and found him gazing at
check for thirty-fiVe cents his prize
money which he had received a few DAYS
before and had framed and hung over his
chimney.
