Washington, March 14-The steam
ship Miowera has arrived at Victoria, b.
c., seven days from Honolulu. She
brought no deported revolutionists. 1t
is understood there were some offered,
but the company desired to take no risk
in the matter. Honolulu advices to
March follow:
The work consequent to the rebellion,
so far as the military organizations are
concerned, was practically completed
on Friday, when the judge advocate of
the military commission announced
that the government had no more cases
to bring before that body. All the cases
have been acted upon, and the sem
tences of only a few minor offenders
have yet to be made known. The ma
tives convicted have, as rule, been
sentenced to five years Imprisonment
at hard labor, the usual fine of $1,000
being remitted by the president.
The ex-queen has been sentenced to
five years Imprisonment and to pay a
fine Of $1,000. She is 4lll confined in the
room of the executive building where
she was placed on the day of her ar
rest, and is under military guard. Just
what Is to be done with Liliuokalani Is
a question which the government has
not yet answered. Certain it Is that
she will not be kept in the executive
building for Ave years or placed in the
Oahu prison. Undoubtedly before the
end of the month some proposition will
be received from the eX-dueen's repre-
sentatives, whereby she will either take
up her residence on one of the other
islands or leave the country. doubtless
to go to England. She has a private
income of about $4,000 a year, which
will not be interfered with by the gov
ernment. 1t will not be the policy of
the government to assume an arbitrary
attitude should the eX-queen make
reasonable proposition.
Martial Law Still in Force.
Though the work of the military COM
mission is completed that body will not
be dismissed or martial law declared off
until all those who have signed agree
| ments to leave the country have de-
parted. The last batch Is due to leave
March 16. Should any of these men
show a disposition not to comply with
| their agreement, they will be promptly
| arrest, put on trial before the commits
sion and sentenced.
The restrictions Of martial law have
been retired to a great extent. Citi-
Zens are allowed on the streets at night
without passes and the police have dis
carded their rifles. The attitude Of the
government in the deposition of Grams
| ton Mueller and Johnson Is explained
| in this mornings Commercial Adver-
tiser, which says the discussion arising
from the deportation Of three political
| prisoners to Vancouver, while attract
| ing more or less attention, is not caus-
| ing the government officials any fears
from possible derogatory results. The
position of the government briefly eX-
pressed is: The act was justified by the
laws of Hawaii. Second, the act COM
planned of was done by right of the
| government OF Hawaii.
The movement for annexation Is gain
| ing among the natives and the forma-
tion of annexation league by Sam Park
er, one of the ex-queen's commissioners
to Washington, and other prominent
native Hawaiians and half-breeds, will
doubtless result in monster annexation
| petitions from all parts of the islands.
