Victoria, B. c., March 12.-The Mo
vera arrived at 4 80 this afternoon, seven
days from Honolulu. She brought no
deported revolutionists. 1t is understood
that there were some offered, but the
company desired to take no risk in the
matter.
Honolulu advices to March are: 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 cases have been acted upon and the
sentences of only few minor offenders
| have yet been made known. The ma
| tives convicted have, as rule, been SEN
| fenced to five years imprisonment at
| hard labor, the usual fine OF $1,000 being
RENTED by the President.
The ex-Queen has been sentenced to five
years imprisonment and to pay a fine of
| $4,000. She is still confined in a room in
the executive building, where she was
placed on the day of her arrest, and is
under a guard of the military. Just what
is to be done with Liluokalani is a ques-
ton which the Government has not yet
answered Certain it is that she will not
years or placed in the Oahu prison. I'M
doubtedly, before the end OF the month";
some proposition will be received from
the eX-Queen's representatives, whereby
she will either take up her residence on
one of the other islands or leave the couu-
try, doubtless to go to England. She has
private income of about $40, 900 year
which will not be interfered with by the
Government. 1t will not be the policy OF
the Government to assume an arbitrary
attitude should the ex-Queen make
reasonable proposition.
Though the work of the military COM
mission is completed, that body will not
be dismissed or martial law declared off
until those who have signed agreements
to leave the country have departed. The
last batch is due to leave March 18th.
Should any of these men show a dispo-
sition not to comply with the agreement,
they will be promptly arrested put on
trial before the commission and sem
fenced. The restrictions of martial law
have been raised to great extent. Clti-
zens are allowed on the streets at nights
without passes and the police have dis
carded their rifles.
The attitude of the Government in the
deportation of Cranston, Mueller and
Johnston is expressed in this mornings
Commercial Advertiser, which says:
The discussion arising from the de-
porting of three political prisoners to
Vancouver. while attracting more or less
attention, is not causing Government
officials any fear from possible deroga-
tory results. The position of the Govern
ment, briefly expressed, is;
"First-The act was justified by the
laws of Hawaii.
Second-The act complained OF was dons
by order OF the Government of Hawaii"
The movement for annexation is gain

Sam Parker one of the ex-queen' COM
missoners to Washington, and other
prominent native Hawaiians and half
whites, will doubtless result in monster
annexation petitions from al parts of the
islands. A remark reported to have
come from a prominent British official
that he expected ''thisEthing would be re-
peated in a short time, - shows that while
the superficial attitude of the English
may be friendly, they have no deep seated
love for the republic or the possibility OF
the United States controlling this terri
tory.
Stories published in American papers
of fortunes practiced upon political pris-
oners to bring about confessions have
aroused feeling of indignation through
out the community. They are thoroughly
and completely without foundation. Even
the Royalists condemn the yarns and it
is hardly possible that steps will be taken
to discover whether the articles origi-
mated here or were manufactured in the
United States, the latter being the most
generally accepted version.
An act was passed in the advisoryAcoun-
Gil appropriating S25, 900 to defray the eX-
penses of the rebellion, making the whole
expense up to the present time SIS, 600.
