Hut the News From h&WAN EXHuGmSAy
Pleases Him.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The latest de-
velopments in Hawaii as contained I'M
the Associated Press Auckland dispatch
was agreeable news to Mr.. Thurston,
the minister of that country at this
capital
"Now that the queen has been ar
rested for completely in the rebellion,
what win the authorities do with her?
VIII she be banished from the country?'
asked the reporter.
THAT is a matter do not care to dis
cuss," answered the minister. "That,
in connection with the possible effect of
her confined residence in the islands, is
question that will be dealt with by
those who have the affairs of the nation
entrusted to their care. Nor can ]
talk about the possible disposition Of the
eases Of Wilcox and other leaders of the
rebellion" t@
The minister expects fresh advices Of
affairs at Honolulu ON the arrival of the
Australia, due in San Francisco in four
or five days. -
Surprised the State Department.
The news of the arrest of the ex-queen
was received with surprise at the state
department, and although the officials
declined to discuss the matter in any as
pect, it was plainly to beseen that they
had not expected that she would be con-
nected with the revolutionary attempt.
SO badly conceived and executed and
promising SO little i'm results. As it is
they fear that she is likely to forfeit
whatever property remains In her pos
session TO the republic, and in addition
probably viii be exiled i'm order to elm
mate her entirely as political factor.
There has not as yet been any sugges
tions that the Ucited States government
should interfere i'm behalf OF the ex
/ queen, who is now. after the full and
formal recognition OF the repub
lie, nothing nore than any indi
vidual citizen of Hawaii. If any
American citizens are among the persons
arrested and tried for completely In tn,
rebellion, then undoubtedly Mr.. Willis
our minister, will see TO it that they se
cure full
Opportunity 90 Prove Their Innocence
if they can do so. Notwithstanding tn,
oininous significance conveyed by tn
fact that the trials were to be by court
martial, it is not believed here that yer,
severe punishment win be meted out t
the persons convicted, except perhaps il
the cases of actual Hawaiians, for iC i
: hardly to be conceived that the Britisl
and other foreign ministers at Honolulu
: could contemplate with equaninlity tia
