HAWAIIAN JINkS

Liliuokaiani Will Be Pardoned and an Ami.
versary Celebrated
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 14.-Advices from
Honolulu are to the effect that prepara-
tions are under way for the third celebra-
ton of the anniversary of the revolution
which overturned the monarchy. 1t will
take place on January II, and the predic-
ton is made that the parole of ex-Queen
Llliuokalan will on that day be at an end
and that she will be granted full pardon.
President Dole is said to have informed
a correspondent that the government hoped
TO see it's way clear to pardon the ext .ueen
in short time, and the third anniversary
of her dethronement will in all probability
witness the last act of the drama.
The ex-Queen is frequently seen driving
about the city and is enjoying much better
health than at any time in the last three
wears.

merchant of San Louis Obispo and Eureka,

Humboldt Self Help association to investi-

the sawmills as fuel, and with cheap wool
at hand Mr.. Crocker believes that Eureka
will be an admirable point for the manu-

ENGLAND WILL NOT YIELD
Her Sovereignty Over Bona Eide Settled
Districts
Sir George Baden Powell Suggests Venexu-
elan Committee After the Berlng Sea
Commission Precedent
Associated Press Speclal Wire.

LONDON, Jan. 15.-Sir John Lubbock
presided at a meeting yesterday which
passed resolution in favor of q perma-
nent arbitration court. The meeting
appointed committee to favor the plo-
posed movement, including the bishop, Of
Durham, Canon Wilberforce, Cardinal
Vaughn, Dean Farrar. Lady Henry Solner-
set, w. T. Stead and William r. Cremer,
the member of parliament who went 10 the
United States some time since with u petit
ton for an arbitration treaty signed by all
the members of parliament and oths,rs.
An editorial in the Times repeats that
the only point in the Venezuela contro-
versy upon which England car concede
nothing is the retention of the bona fide
settled districts under the British sover-
eighty.
The Globe says it thinks the pacific COM
pleXion of the Venezuelan situation is due
to Emperor William, adding:
1.-The moment the German sword ratified,
Brother Jonathan ceased to finger his re-
volver.
Secretary Olney's appeal regarding the
Transvaal, coming from the author of the
enlargement of the Monroe doctrine, is an
olive branch. Nor has reciprocity in
friendship been lacking on our side.
George Baden Powell, who was the Brit
ish member of the Bering sea joint COM
mittee, writes to the Times this morning,
suggesting that Great Britain follow the
successful Bering sea precedent and invite
Venezuela to appoint two representatives
to meet two British representatives and
form joint committee. If the commits
sion should be agreed upon, the question
would be settled, and if they disagreed 1t
would be necessary to negotiate a treaty,
referring the matter to mediation or arbi-
tration.
NO VENEZUELAN REVOLT
New YORK, Jan. 14.-The committee of

bound volume containing the resolutions
passed at recent mass meeting, has re-
| turned to Washington. In speaking of the

aza, ex-president of Venezuela, said last
night:
"Presdent Cleveland expressed much
concern as to the revolutionary spirit in
Venezuela and asked US whether it was
| true that the revolt had been positively
called off. We assured him that under no
conditions would revolt take place.
/ 1.-THE president said he was very glad to
hear this and expressed the opinion that a
revolt against President Crespo before the
controversy with England is settled would
be very disastrous to Venezuela, and cau-
| toned us to prevent its occurrence"
