ANOTHER VERSION.
But it Corroborates the story Told
Above.

But it Corroborates the story Told
Above.
San Francisco, May 16.-Julius A.
Palmer, who went TO the Hawaiian is
lands to investigate the state of affairs
there as special correspondent of the
New York Evening Post three months
ago, has arrived here on the Australia
He believes that there will be a crisis
there and that the end can only be the
restoration of the monarchial form OF
government. He says there never Will
be harmony until the monarchy is re-
stored and Princess Kaiulani placed
upon the throne.
In giving his reasons for this belize
he said:
There are three main points Of dan
ger to the government The first is
that Secretary Gresham has decided
that Bowler is not an American citizen
and that Great Britain has decided
that Richard and Walker are British
subjects.
The Greatest Fear.
1.-THE greatest fear of the Hawaiian
government is Japan, and they do not
scruple to say so. They are making ar
rangements TO get in 5000 Chinese cool
les and send away as many Japanese
The government, when the Japanese
coolies came in, gave an unders landing
that if Japan would supply them with
coolies they would employ them Now
Japan will probably hold that this I'M
derstanding is being violated
THE third danger to the government
party is in themselves. The democracy
or American league is now taking UNI
bragg at the new importation ot
Chinese
..The financial condition is also one
of the things that will help TO bring IN
a crisis. May 1st the government adj
vertised publicly that no bills must be
paid except IN three and six months
credit.
ssThe loyalty of the natives to tha
monarchy was never as strong as it is
now. and it was the basis of the union
of all parties in past years, and there
will never be harmony until that mon
archy is restored in Princess Kalulanls
and that would make peace at once.
Colonel Ashford, attorney general OF
Hawaii, who arrived on the same
steamer, expressed similar views. He
said: There is a perfect reign of Ter
ror in the islands. Informers are every
where People do not dare to speak

Little Left for Libelants To Run To
Port Orchard.

The steamer Mary F. Perley was sold by
Deputy United States Marshal Quilter
yesterday 10 w. T. Gaffney for $3.50. Mr.
GaTnev is postmaster at Silverdale, near
Port Orchard. and after rehtting the
steamer, which he expects will cost $500.
he will put her on the Port Washington
and Port Orchard route. The bidding was
light and there was not much competition.
as II is said s., 500 would be a low valuation
OF the boat. Capt. Gilmore started the
bidding at $500, and Capt. Reddington, the
former owner OF the boat, and Lilly, Boz
gardus & Co. were some Of the other bid
ders.
The sale al so low price practically let's
out all of the people who had libelcd the
boat for wages. damages, etc The origin
al libel was by the Puget Sound & Alaska
Steamship Company for si.5s5.s9 damages
caused by the collision of the Periey and
the Kingston. This was followed up by
claims for wages amounting to sl.l50
Then Howard Baker a Co. filed n claim
for damages amounting to $685.. 50. and
other claims for materials. etc, amount
to $500 more, making a total Of nearly
81 600
