Honolulu, Jan. 1.-THE expected has
happened On last Monday a revolt, hav-
ing for its purpose the restoration of the
royal house Of Hawaii to the island throne,
broke out, and at the date of the leaving of
the steamer the rebels, in arms, are in full
retreat to the interior of this island. The
other islands, so far, have not been the
scene of any disturbance, although it is be-
lieved the conspiracy has wide ramitica-
tions throughout the group. Who are the
known, and the ex-Queen Liliuokalani,
herself, has not even been connected di-
rectly with the affair, though arms
were found in her house when it
was searched, but everybody knows
the affair was managed in her interest
and there will probably be wholesale de-
portation of leading royalists when the
revolt is finally put down. That it will be
put down is al but certainty now. The
skirmisbes-for they cannot be called bat
ties, although, contrary to rule in Hawaiian
revolutions, some blood has been she'd
have all gone one way, and discipline and
the possession of the sinews of war are
both on the side of the party in power.
The revolutionists, in fact, were rather
taken by surprise. Their leaders In Homo
lulu and in the field were undoubtedly far
advanced in their preparations, but a day
makes a great difference in conspiracy,
and the Government spies came upon
them day too soon, forcing Robert Wilcox
and Sam Nowlein to take the field with
their Kanakas but half armed and not
provisioned at all 1t was whites against
natives, and the result was never in doubt.

in from the front with the report that one
rebel had been killed, one mortally
wounded and six taken prisoner.
At noon on January 10 two prisoners
from the seat of war were sent in. One
was half-white carpenter named Poole,
who says he left the Wilcox party Wednes-
day night. When captured he had Win
chester and 100 rounds of cartridges. None
of the Wilcox party had had anything to
eat since Monday, except guavas and a
bullock they had killed. Poole said Will
cox had thirty men when he left. The
rest of his party were either wounded, dead,
deserted or taken prisoners. Another cap
ture was Arthur Fitzgerald, pal of the
notorious Francis Leo of Harden.
Struggling prisoners were brought in
during the afternoon, and, with the excep-
ton of Wilcox himself and his band of
thirty, the Wilcox contingent of rebels
have probably been wiped out

it was decided that the enemy's camp
should be destroyed, and to effect this
Captain Ziegler's company of regulars was
ordered to assist Murray, taking with him
an Austrian field-gun.
The forces effected junction on the
slope of Diamond Head. After an hour's S
gun practice, which failed to dislodge the
enemy, it was decided to make charge
into the lantana and drive the rebels out.
To assist this move Lieutenant Ludwig
with ten men was ordered to make detour
to the left and come up behind them. This
he had accomplished by 4 o'clock. Lud-
wig was nearly an hour before he obtained
the coveted position, such was the nature
of the ground, either solid rock or almost
impenetrable underbrush. During all this
time skirmishing was going on continu-
ously, with an occasional shot from the
cannon.
The first shots from the fanking party
were followed by rush from Ziegler's
men into the lantana. This was not only

Honolulu, Jan. 11.-Advices from the
front are that every effort is being made to
capture the rebel chiefs.
About twenty-five arrests were made to-
day in the city, making in all about sew
enty-fiye up to the present writing. At
P. NJ. there was in all 1853 prisoners on the
reef, of whom 100 were prisoners of war. 1t
is said that most of the latter have .old all
they knew, and that it is upon their con-
fessions new arrests are continually being
made. So far neither Sam Parker, John
Cummins, or Charles B. Wilson has been
implicated, and it is said they 'repudiate
any connection with the affair.
During the afternoon of Wednesday,
heavy firing was heard from the direction
of Manoa Valley.
Messengers from within sight of the bat
tie, telephoning from Montano's, said the
rebels were posted on the heights at the
convergence of the Manoa and Palolo
ranges. The sharpshooters were advanc-
ing upon the rebels from the Palolo side,
while the Citizens Guard, under Captain
T. B. Murray, were closing upon them from
the Manoa side. The rebels were thus be-
tween two fires, and pluckily responded to
both.
With the troops going from Punchbowl
Hotchkiss gun was being sent with which
to pour deadly rain upon the insurgents.
The rebels were located at the head of
Mahoa Valley in two divisions.
One division was in a gulch at the ex-
treme end of the valley. 1t is supposed to
be in command of Sam Nowlein. The lat
est courier to the first outpost says the
estimate is that they numbered about 300
men. The courier could not see, however,
how there could be more than fifty or sixty
men. The other division was on the other
side of the valley in the gulches, probably
two miles distant from the first. 1t was
commanded by Robert Wilcox and, it is
believed, two or three white men. There
is no knowing it's strength. This division
has not been attacked yet.
At s P. M. on Wednesday courier came

only little firing. The hostiles came in
in punches of two to five. There were very
few decent natives in the lot. All the
sneakthieves, drunkards, loafers, gamblers
and opium-smokers in town seemed to
have enlisted for the war. There were a
few who had been in royal military or
carnations, very few dock 1aborers and
few boatboys. They told all sorts of stories
and were about as guileless lot OF liars as
ever assembled in any quarter OF the globe.
They invariably said they meant no harm
and declared that either Wilcox or Now
lein or somebody else had compelled them
to carry gun. AS nearly as could be
gathered from their statements and other
information the insurgents had. 900 rifles.
They actually armed few less than 500
men. Prisoners said that the rifles were
landed on the beach near Waialae from
the little interisland steamer Waimanalo.
Captain Davis and the mate of the boat
have both confessed, corroborating the
statements of the natives.
The morning call., 1895-01-19

proceed along the Moiluli road until they
obtained a position in the rear of the in
surgents. They had proceeded as far as
the Palolo Valley, along the ridge of which
there is stone dividing fence. Concealed
behind this was force of natives,
estimated at about 100 with a small
howitzer. The first intimation Murrays
force had of this was shower of bullets,
followed by discharge of grape and can
lister from the gun. Luckily both were
aimed too low and fell short, otherwise
Murray's force would have been decimated.
Not knowing the strength of the rebels,
M urray withdrew until he found favora-
BILE position to make camp. He had with
him telephone instruments and wire, and
was soon in communication with the head
quarters at the Marshals office and with
the force in the front.
Before going further it may be well to
describe in a few words the topography of
the country. The slope of the Diamond
Head Mountain facing Honolulu is precip-
itous and scanned with small gull
lies and valleys, which are COW
cred with dense growth of Ian
tana, a shrub peculiar to Hawaii
which tears the clothes of any passing
through it, and grows thickly to height
of about six or eight feet. At the summit
of the mountain is an extinct crater about
three miles in circumference and mile
deep. From the position occupied by the
rebels, if driven back, they must either go
into the crater or descend to the seashore
and follow the beach. In the latter case
they would find no outlet except by as
cending the famous Pail Pass, and thus
gain access to Honolulu. This is the great
precipiee over which the first of the Kane
hamehas drove his conquered thousands to
fall a sheer depth of 1900 feet. The trail up
which an enemy would have to pass is
such that handful of men could hold it
against hundreds.
After Murray had reported by telephone
