A portion of an old hau tree
that has stood on the King street
side of H. E. McIntyre's grocery
store for more than fifty years was
cut down yesterday in order that
the remaining portion of the trunk
might be saved.
A great many years ago it was
the custom, if not the law to plant
shade trees on the sidewalks of
certain streets and this particular
tree was planted with number of
others when shade trees were in
rogue.
Mr.. Mcintyre came to Honolulu
about fifty years ago and he states
that the tree was growing at that

That's What K. M. Lands Tries
to Make Out.
TO STATEMENTS MADE.
Bureau for Abuse of the Admins
tration-Said Ex-Minister Promised
to Return If Letter Not Forwarded.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2S.-"Lorrin A.
Thurston begged Secretary Gresham
not to forward his letter of recall to
Honolulu" said K. M. Lands, who
was the private secretary of the
dead Secretary of State, ''and offer
ed if the letter was not sent to i'm
mediately return to Hawaii and
tender his resignation as Minister
to this country"
Mr. Lands returned to Chicago
today. He had read the charges of
Mr.. Thurston against Gresham and
President Cleveland. AS the pri-
vate secretary and confidant of
Gresham during the last years of
his life, he said: Long prior to
the recall of Thurston it was known
that he was maintaining in the
Hawaiian Legation at Washing
ton a press bureau. This was
known to the members of the diplo-
matte corps and to the best posted
men on newspaper row. The object
of this bureau was to secure the
publication of matter abusive of the
Administration and those Ameri-
cans who opposed the annexation
of Hawaii.
''An original draft of an article
coming from Mr. Thurston was
secured and submitted to Secretary
Gresham. He delayed several days
in considering it, but finally Mr.
Thurston was called to the State
Department and the original shown
to him.
''Thurston said that he had been
indiscreet, had not meant to say
what he did, and regretted that the
matter had taken that turn. He
left the office apologizing for the
matter and promising that it should
not occur again.
"As a matter of fact it was
learned afterward by the State De
partment that this attack on the
Administration which Thurston
permitted newspaper correspond
ents to copy in his office came, on
the statement OF Thurston, not
from himself, but from the Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs of Hawaii,
Hatch. As | understand it, Hatch
himself prepared the matter and
forwarded it to Thurston for dis
semination.
81 regret the whole discussion
from one point of view that Sec
rotary Gresham is dead. cannot
speak for the White House. But
from all | can understand and
learn, Mr.. Thurston occupies the
position of being in bad
odor in his own country. He was
persona non grata with them as
with us.
"No State official of the Govern
ment was bound by any code of
diplomacy to perpetually endure
the press attacks which Mr.. Thurs
ton authorized from the legation of
which he was at the head. Mr..
Thurston did not deny the origin
of these attacks, and he knew why
he was recalled, through Secretary
Gresham, long bef2ke his Govern
ment did"

Committee Report on Young Peoples So
cicties Mostly Eliminated.
SARATOGA, May 27.-Christian Endcavor
won victory yesterday in the Presby-
tcrian general assembly. Those interested
in the movement were in the ma jority and
they eliminated most of the report of the
committee on relations of young people to
the church and discharged the committee.
The sum total of the assembly's action
comprised the adoption of statement of
relations between individual societies and
churches" which was directed to be read
in the various societies, and provision
for the collection of Christian Endcayof
statistics.
The discussion of the report on home
missions showed that the assembly is on
the point of an outbreak on the subject of
new Presbyterian building in New York.
The action finally taken has been vari-
ously interpreted. 1t contemplated the
Inauguration of synodical sustentation O.
the mission work within the bounds OF
each synod, and some of the members of
the assembly have expressed themselves as
believing this to be the first step towards
the disintegration of the board of home
missions.
The resolutions provide for closer pres
byterial inspection of acquisitions on the
mission board; for a movement towards
self support within each presbytery and
synod, and for committee of nine to al
