Her Millionaire Lover Was Murdered.
San Francisco, March 25.-The Call
says: The latest sensational development
in the Fair will case is that insinuations

died by poison administered BY parties
interested in his death at certain
time. Miss Phoebe Cousins, who claims
to have been the affianced wife of Sena-
tor Fair. broadly hints al suspicious that
Senator Fair had been given poison at
more than one time. The suspicious OF
Miss Cousins are backed up by a San
Francisco man who was in a position to
know great deal that occurred to Sena-

is keeping in the background for certain
reasons, but when he tells his story the
public will be able to form an opinion as

and when he reached Hawaii his advice
h@d much to do in the final action of the

fore, that his departure at the present
Juncture, before it is known what action
the Hawaiian government has taken on
Secretary Gresham's demand, may result
i'll his being a Honolulu when final action
is taken No information has yet come
from Hawaii as to the course of that

The departure Of Jhurston from the

leave the relations between this govern
ment and Hawaii in a peculiar condition.
1t can not be said there is a rupture of
diplomatic relations, but they will certain
ly be severely strained. 1t is customary
III ordinary eases where the minister
leaves, for him to put his letters of re-
can before the president and take his
leave. But as Thurston has not been re-
called, he can not do this. Then when a
minister leaves the United States tenn
porally he usually addresses a note to
the state department and informs it
that he has left the legation in the hands
of a charge d affares
