the radical and emphatic disagreement
of these two gentlemen with President
Cleveland's Hawaiian policy and the
countenance given to the restoration of
the queen. President Cleveland, through
Secretaries Carlisle and Gresham, pre
vailed on the brace of disgruntled
statesmen to withdraw their resigna
tions or at least dc-fer them for a time.
Washington, Nov. 14. It is accepted
as inevitable that the Hawaiian inci
dent will come up In congress as soon
as the session opens.- All the Indica
tions are that the division will be on
strict party lines. The republicans take
Cleveland's position to be a reflection
flh Harrison's actions In the premises,
and will doubtless attack him therefor.
The democrats expect this and are
preparing to be put on their defense.
The democrats believe that at the open-
lng of congress Cleveland will send in
Tablets. Blanks. Miscellaneous Rnnks. a which he win make pub-
this country, which may put the case
In an entirely new light. This is ex
pected, especially in view of the fact
that Commissioner Blount's report has
never been given out. Congressman
Geary, of California, a member of the
committee on foreign affairs, today
said: "All the facts are not before the
people yet, and I would prefer to say
nothing till later."
Concerning the reported dissension
In the cabinet, It can be said that Mor
ton Is In accord with the president on
his Hawaiian policy, and that Holce
Smith has not given a reason to sup
pose thnt he entertains opinions dif
fering fromi those of the president on
the matter.
Washington, .Nov. 14. The fear of
the friends of the present government
of Hawaii is that Minister Willis will
push President Dole to an Immediate
surrender of his authority on the
ground that the provisional government
Itself put a limit of duration to Us own
authority, and that limit expires when
It is decided that there Is no chance
of annexation to the United States.
There have been rumon frm the state
department that the United States has
not entered upon Its attempt to restore
the queen without a thorough under
standing with all the foreign powers,
and It is said that the government
has received assurances that no objec
tion will be raised to its plan. Great
Britain will unquestionably welcome
the restoration of the queen and the
prospect of the early accession of Prin
cess KailulanI, as the best .hope of a
government distinctively In British In
terests. By the convention in France
In 1843, England agreed to refrain from
over annexing tha Hawaiian Islands or
taking them unJer a protectorate, but
she has never ceased to try to influ
ence the control of the local govern
ment to her interests. The restoration
question has affected her Interests in
tho Pearl River Harbor. The exclusive

are considered, the feat is unsurpassed

ANOTHER ACCIDENT.
Tho Big Raft Not Gone from Marsh-
1 field Tet.
Marshfleldi Or., Nov. 14. An unfa
vorable accident again prevented the
large raft -from ' being towed to. sea

about 10 o'clock with the tug. Ranger,
aiid.wnen he returned he took hold ot
the raft and started to tow her down
to the bar. The tug Liberty had hold
of the raft also. The Ranger had
scarcely straightened out her tow line
when the two main Journal binders to
her low pressure cylinder broke and
cracked her rudder. Captain John
Roberts is much disheartened by the
mishap, but when seen just after the
accident said that he would strain every
pr.int to ba ready to go to sea Thurs
day. Fully five hundred excursionists
went down from Marshfleld today to

granted for the free entry of Hawaiian
sugar into the United States,, but the
general free sugar entry under the Me
Kinley law worked to the abrogation
of the special advantage enjoyed bv
the Hawaiian, and they hold that the
rlht of the United States In Pearl
River was terminated by it. Some dis
appointment is felt in administration
elides at the expressions of public
opinion against the Hawaiian policy,
but there are no Indications of any wa
vering of Cleveland's purpose.
There was a meeting between Secre
tary Gresham and Minister Thurston,
of the Hawaiian government this af
lernoon. Both gentlemen declined to
state the result. It was learned from
Mr. Thurston that the meeting was a
friendly one.
