Committee on the Nicaragua canal held
meeting today and authorized the
chairman, Senator Morgan, to report
favorably a bill similar TO that which
has been reported in the House for the
construction of the Nicaragua Canal
The committee also signifed its con-
currence in report on the bill which
Senator Morgan had prepared, and
which he read to the committee. The
report was afterward presented to the
Senate. 1t is voluminous document
and discusses in comprehensive man
ner all the questions involved in the
construction Of the proposed water
way.
Referring to the report Of the Nicar-
aqua Canal Commission, the committee
says:
There is, in fact, no real engineering
difficulty in any part of the projected
work. To say that this work is prac-
ticable al a cost that bears reasonable
comparison with its importance and
value, and TO add that it should not be
built until every feature Of the work is
fixed by tests that are impossible to be
applied in advance of construction. is

engage in it,
The committee expresses the opinion
based upon the work performed
that the canal can be constructed for
less than Menocals estimate, which is

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The con-

comment. It is only a sample Of how

Blount and his visit to Hawaii how
he pulled down the American flag in
obedience to Cleveland's orders, and
now he tried to put Queen Lii back on
the throne. After he failed, Mr.
Blount came home and retired to his

been ever since. He has a son, James

THE feeling of the Hawaiian people

only friendly and amiable toward US.
but is very cordial My residence in
Hawaii from the time of my going there
TO my departure on leave of absence
has been very agreeable and pleasant,
without anything jarring or discordant
except for about a week during the ex-
citement of the revolution. I could not
desire more cordiaIity and manifesto
ton OF friendly feeling than I have re-
ceived from both the citizens and the
Government of Hawaii Everything is
peaceful, beautiful, delightful on the
Islands. The Legislature was about
closing up its work when I left. and
they accomplished several important
things. The immigration question and
a number of other questions are OF
great Importance, but the Government
has manifested wisdom and capacity
in dealing with the questions as they
arise. The Islands are enjoying a pc
riod Of phenomenal prosperity and the
people seem contented. There is no
talk and apparently no thought of revo-
luton or disorder. When people have
money in their pockets and plenty to
eat they are not apt to be discontented
and TO grumble. The immense crops
and the high price OF sugar have made
money abundant"
rs there any talk Of the restoration
Of Queen Liliuokalani?"
No Talk of Restoring the Queen.
None whatever. There is no talk
and apparently no thought of the res
toratiOn OF the Queen. To show how
far this is from the public mind. the
Government has granted a pension OF
$4,000 a year TO Kaiulani. the heiress OF
LiliuOkalaniE Undoubtedly a suitable
pension would have been provided for
Liliuokalani but for the revolution. in

much involved. No, there does not ap-

present Government, or thought OF its
overthrow"

most friendly. I, as the representative
