SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. May Is-Afail
advices from Honolulu May Sth bring
two communications from Secretary
Gresham 10 Minister Wills. The first,
dated Washington. February 18th relates
10 the forcible deportation OF j. Grams
ton. and cncloses dispositions made by
Cranston February 18th and 18th before
the American Consular Agent, Peterson, al
Vancouver. This letter continues as fol-
lows:
These dispositions leave the question
OF Mr.. Cranston's nationality In doubt.
and Mr. Peterson has been instructed
10 obtain further statements from him
on that subject. Under these crcum-
stances the department does not now in
struct you TO make any representations
TO the Hawaiian Government in regard
10 Mr.. Cranston. but II Is proper 10 ex-
press TO you, for your own guidance in
similar cases. should they arise, the views
here entertained In regard 10 the course
OF action taken in that case. 1t appears
that after having been kept In jail for
nearly a month. without any charges
having been made against him, he was
taken under heavy guard TO a steamer.

you. have been deported without having
had an opportunity then to do so had 1t

you state that when you asked the
Attorney General for an explanation of
the proceeding. he replied that the Cabi-
net had determined to deport the men.
In the exercise of the arbitrary power
conferred by martial law. AS this was
the only explanation he gave Il Is as
sumed that II was all that he had TO
offer. and he gave II without suggesting
any question as TO MIR. Cranston's nation
ality. If the position thus assumed be
sound. the very proclamation of martial
law in Hawaii renders all foreigners there
residing, including Americans, liable TO
arrest and deportation without cause,
and wi,hou; any reason other than the
fact that the executive power wills II.
They may be taken from their homes and
their business; they may be deprived Of
their liberty and banished; they may
be denied the ordinary. as well as the
special treaty rights Of residence. without
offence or misconduct on their part.

The other letter from Secretary Gresh-
am, which left the Department OF
State, April 9Th. relates 10 the case OF

allegiance to the Hawaiian Government.

THE DEEp-RuN HUNT CLUB.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
Ever since the 18th Of April have
diligently read the Richmond newspapers

OF thanks and praise of the energy dis
played by the master. in spite OF the
apathy with which his efforts were met
In the beginning OF the season.

there was a more than respectable as
sembly OF Richmond's beauty and fashion
az the hunt steeplechase and much en-
thusiaSm displayed at the way II was
managed, and II is very much to be hoped
that the next season WIN show very
great increase OF the members OF the
hunt
1t Is one thing TO follow the hounds
and quite another thing 10 dip your
hand In your pocket for the purpose OF
paying their necessary expenses; and IT
Is quite out OF the question TO expect the
masters 20 take all the trouble OF the
hounds and be out OF pocket TO any great
extent. besides.
There are very many gentlemen In and
around the city OF Richmond who proba-
bly, could and would subscribe II they
were properly conyssscd. although they
might never follow the hounds them
selves
Many OF these gentlemen very likely
have sons and daughters who do hunt
and n they were to think IL worth while
10 subscribe In proportion 20 the number
OF the members OF their family attending
the meets. II would materially lersen the
difficulty Of keeping tae hunt going.
I very much doubt whether the hunt
can be satisfactorily carried on under

small sum 20 collect from two such rising
cities ss Richmond and Manchester

The only Hope for Permanent Peace
ON the Islands, Hc noids. II
ia the Ressorssiea of the Moa-
archy.

SAN FRANCISCO. CAL. May H.
Private letters received from Honolulu
yesterday by the steamer Australia de-
clare that change OF administration win
soon take place there. and that the
change IL advocated by no less import
ant parsonage than ex-Ninister Thurs
ton, rays an evening paper The in
formation comes from a most reliable
source. and cannot be questioned. Ac-
cording to the letter. all that Ia preserv-
Ing the government Is the fact that II
possesses the arms to quell another out
break. and Is exceedingly active In its
EFFORTS TO prevent the landing of contra
osnd arms. IL Is We'll known that the
government forces numerically are great
iy In the minority, ard no one has
been made to realize this fact more than
Minister Thurston.
The letter says that In recent con-
ference between ex-Minister Thurston,
President Dole. and other members OF
his Cabinet. the former declared that the
only hope Of permanent peace on the
islands would be realized by placing the
Princess Kaiulani in the position which
the former monarchy proposed that she
should some day have. Mr.. Thursion Is
reported 70 have advocated this step so
strongly that President Dole and his
Cabinet became alarmed, and have since
given the matter many hours OF conside-
ration.
DOLE GOVERNMENT DOOMED.
There is probably no one who UNDER
stands the Hawaiian disposition better
than Mr. Thurston. n did not take him
long after his arriyaf~ In Honolulu TO
fully appreciate the danger that threat
ened the republic.
Passengers on tire Australia yesterday.
although not anxious 10 give their opin-
Ions and have their names appear IN
print have conhded the fac; that the re-
public is on its last legs. Various or
CARNATIONS are breaking away from
ara ident Doe, ana the opposing forces,
which were somewhat subdued after the
recent uprising by the show of arms
by the government, are now becoming
holder
AN alarm is likely to be sounded to-
night remarked one passenger. "and II
II Is YOU can expect to hear of the down
fall Of the republic. There - no escape
from IL. TIE people are dissatisfied, and
particularly tire Americans who. il
aroused. will find at their sides all the
assistance they need 10 effect complete
change In the government"
Minister Thurstons uncasiness has be-
come so apparent to the opposing forces
that the latter have. gained more cour-
age. The fact that Mr.. Thurston favors
change is no longer secret, and when
we left Honolulu II was common talk that
ne was then planning to carry out a sue
cessfui restoration of the monarchy"
