HONOLULU, Oct. 27.-(Via San Francisco,
Nov. 5.)-The Hawaiian government has sent
by the steamer China a request for certain
other information regarding the letter and
opinion of Attorney General Griggs respect
ing British claims in connection with the
1895 revolution here.
In referring the matter back to the Ha-
waian government the letter states that
they are resubmitted for Consideration and
settlement"
President Dole thinks this places the mat
ter entirely in the hands Of the local gov
ernment to do as it pleases about it, the
United States holding to It's former policy OF
having absolutely nothing to do with the
questions. There are others. however, who
think that following annexation they become
matters between Washington and London.

Statute Allowing bounty.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5-More than 800 former
members OF the Second and Third Mississippi
volunteers, who enlisted from Chicago, held

cred an old statute of Mississippi which

MACON, Mo-, Nov. 5.-In spite of the
vigilance of Superintendent Vail body of
negroes got out OF the stockade at Mine No.
6l this morning and again started toward
town. On arriving near Mine No. they
stationed themselves in railroad cut and

house was also attacked in similar manner
and several others had to evacuate their

1t is intimated tonight the troops may be

Morning Herald Of this city will tomorrow
edtorially urge that Governor Bradley, as
the highest peace officer of the state, be in
Louisville and If necessary call out the
militia to prevent any interference with the
rights Of citizens on election day that may
arise.
LOUISVILLE, Ky, Nov. 5.-Ante election
interest was heightened tonight by report
from Frankfort containing a hint of some
action on the part of United States Marshal
A. d. James in connection with the state
election. In view of widely circulated re-
ports as to the possibility of trouble and
even bloodshed next Tuesday this report
caused much speculation. 1t told of a letter
said to have been received by Deputy Mar
shal Mccarthy at Frankfort from Mr.. James
notifying him not to leave his pest of duty
Tuesday and to be in readiness to respond
to orders by telegraph or telephone from
federal headquarters at Louisville. This, II
is said, was copy of circular sent to al
deputy marshals in the state.
Marshal James was not in the city to-
night and If he contemplates any action III
nature can only be surmised. Nor is j
clear upon what ground the marshal coult
base any action in connection with the elec
| ton.
Colonel Mengel of the Louisville Legion

B0ERS WAITING FOR GUNS
NonpIussed at Arrival of Naval Guns
and Rcgret Lost OPP
portuDity.

LONDON, Nov. 6.-The general belief in
London is that the Beers are now waiting
for more guns from Pretoria before attack
ing Ladysmith. The fact that Sir Redvers
Butler appears to have ordered retirement
from Sormberg and perhaps from other
places, relieves to some extent the public
mind, which otherwise would have been FUR
ther alarmed. Confidence Is felt in any
measures that General Butler may deem de-
sirable. The knowledge that the pigeon post
is working has also come as a relief to the
great anxiety previously felt.
The third-class cruiser Pelorus has been
ordered from Gibraltar to Durham and the
thrd-class cruiser Fearless from Port said
to the same point.
Dispatches from Capetown and other CEN
ters in Cape Colony indicate that the Cape
Dutch are becoming very restless in con-
sequence of the Boer successes.
The Morning Posts Ladysmith cores
! pondent, telegraphing November 1, says:
I'VE cannot understand the Boer tactics. 1t
is incomprehensibe that they should have
refrained from using their big guns this
morning"
Commenting upon this dispatch, the Morn
| ing Post observes:
1T Is easy to guess the reason why the
Beers have been nonpussed by the arrival
of the naval guns at Ladysmith They are
now regretting a lost opportunity, as they
might have cut the railway and thus pre-
vented the appearance of those guns on the
scene"
The Times, in a careful editorial on th'
relations Of the United States to the war II
South Africa, says
when the continent rings with denuncia
tions of England it is very cheering and re
freshing for the English people to note tn
sympathy and intelligent comprehension
manifested in the United States. We shoul
prize American sympathy in any case, bu
it becomes doubly grateful when manifestl
based upon a deliberate and well-informe
Judgment OF the essential merits of the quar-
rel as well as upon a reciprocation OF TN
kindly feelings with which Englishmen re
gard American aims and enterprises.
"The American people are not blinded b
the accident that the Transvaal calls itsel
republic They know that every essentia
attribute OF a republic is wanting, and the
know also that England stands for equa
laws, individual freedom and the energeti
progress which together make up the repun
lican ideal of the Americans. AS Englan

United States now plump for England with
