Reporter's Lies.
San Francisco, Dec. 20.-Ex-
Queen Liliuokalani left on the
9 o'clock Sunset limited train Of
the Southern Pacific road last
night by way of New Orleans for
Boston. She was accompanied by
Mrs. Ellen Graham, her intimate
friend for several years; maid
and private secretary. The Queen
expects to reach Boston shortly
after noon on Christmas day,
where she will be met and enter
tanned by the relatives of her late
husband. There have been many
visitors for the last few days to
see the Queen. Yesterday the
rush was heavier than usual, in
Guiding several Insurance agents.
New Orleans, La, Dec. 90
Tx Queen Liliuokalani arrived
here this morning on the Sunset
Limited from San Francisco. She
was accompanied by her agent,
Joe Heleluhe, Mrs. Graham, her
personal companion, and a maid
and two children of Mrs. Graham.
The OK. Queen travelled as an
ordinary passenger and did not
occupy a special car. The party
did not stop, but proceeded to
Washington by the Louisville
and Nashville road as soon as the
transfer could be made.
The Queen vigorously repudiat-
ed the interview which a reporter
professed to have had with her at
Houston, Texas. AS she speaks
excellent English, she had no diff

Boston, Mass, Dec. 25.-Ex-
Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii ar
rived in this city at 10 o'clock this
evening, and was at once driven to
the Parker House, which will be
her headquarters during her stay
in this city.
Boston, December 2S.-Ex-
Queen Liliuokalani has gone to
Brookline and will occupy a house
at Coolidge's corner, near the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Lee, for an
indefinite period. The ex-Queen
would have been the guest OF Mr..
and Mrs Lee except for the recent
illness of the latter, which made
il impossible for her to entertain
the Queen and her suite in her
home.
Mrs. Lee has therefore secured
for her this place. 1t will be
handsomely furnished for her
use. The rumor was current to-
day that Liliuokalani intended to
buy house or cottage in Brook
line or somewhere near Boston
and settle down here permanent
ly. TO a reporter who asked If
this was true her majesty said:
