GREECE MAY TAKE A HAND.
Peter G. Camarinos of Honolulu to Cause
President Dole Trouble.

feter u. Camarinos of Honolulu to cause
President Dole Trouble.
The Government of Greece will in all
probability take hand in the adjustment
of affairs in Hawaii, anent the matters con-
corning the attempted instruction of
January 6. There are several Greek sub
lects in and around Honolulu who have
been made to feel the resentment of the Dole
Government because OF suspicion that GER
tain Greeks were in sympathy with the ex-
Queen.
Among those who have fallen under the
ban of the ruling powers are Peter G..
Camarinos, a brother of Demetrius G. Ca
marines of this city, and George Lycurgus,
cousin of the Camarinos. Both of these
gentlemen are subjects of the King Of
Greece and have been engaged in business
on the island of Oahu for a number of
years. Peter Camarinos has been deported
and will arrive here on the steamer Arawa
next Thursday. He has large business in
terests in and near Honolulu. He is COM
mission merchant, with an extensive trade
and correspondence and owns two large
orchards not far from Honolulu. When he
learned that he had been ordered deported
on certain day he filed vigorous pro-
test. He also wrote a full account of his
arriving here by the Mariposa. Demetrius
| Camarinos Immediately telegraphed the
/ Greek ConsuI-General in New York in
forming him of the situation and the plight
OF his brother in Hawaii. The Greek Con-
sui replied by telegraph that the matter
was of such serious nature and of such
| great international Importance to the king
dom of Greece that he could not personally
take any action in the matter without first
informing the Greek Foreign Office of the
| case and obtaining instructions of his Gov
eminent. Mr.. Camarinos of this city yes
terday said:
''If my brother is deported and is pro-
hibited from returning to Hawaii it will
cause him great financial loss. He has
valuable property and prosperous bust
ness in Honolulu and if he cannot per-
sonally manage it he will be practically
ruined.
GAS to the reasons for my brothers
deportation | cannot speak with certainty,
but think | know of one reason at least.
Some time ago Mr.. Sombrero, brother-in-
law of Wilcox, wrote a letter to the latter
and had it sent from here with my mail to
my brother. l think the Government got
hold of that letter and read it, and the fact
that 1t was sent in my brothers care
caused suspicion to be cast on him, thus
giving an excuse for precipitating the envy
and i'll feeling that already prevailed.
GAS to my cousin, Lycurgus," continued
Mr.. Camarinos, che has been ordered de-
ported, too, but he does not want to go.
He has asked the Government to punish
him instead. However, he may come by
the Arawa also"
Lycurgus kept wayside house or resort
near the railroad few miles from Homo
lulu. 1t was here that the revolutionists
and their leaders often assembled to discuss
their plans and partake of the refreshments
afforded by Lycurgus, who has long been a
favorite host with the epicures of Hawaii.
Lycurgus was suspected of knowing all
about the plots and plans of the revolu-
tionists, hence he fell under suspicion and
was ordered into exile.
