No Secession Movement.

Minister Cooper denies the state
ments published in the San Fran
cisco papers regarding his recent
visit to Hawaii. His trip to Hilo
was simply in conformity with the
policy of the Government relating
to visits by Cabinet officers to the
other islands. There was nothing
in the rumors of secession of the
people on the big island to call for
visit of any member of the Gov
eminent to Hiio. There were
some misunderstanding between
Sheriff Hitchcock and members of
the Citizens Guard, but they were
satisfactorily adjusted while Min
lister Cooper was in Hilo and the
guard organized.
