SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Feb. 10.-—The news of the protectorate established by United States Minister Stevens in Hawaii has acted as a wet blanket on annexation sentiment here. It has opened the eyes of people to the real animus of the men who seized possession of the Government and it has strengthened the first suspic- ions that the whole seizure of the Gov- ernment as well as the establishment of this protectorate is part of a cut and dried conspiracy by Millionaire Claus Spreckels. The statements of those who came up on the Australia, and who" are in a position to know, show that the provisional gov— ernment was perfectly stable and that there was no excuse for Minister Stevens’ action other than that he was carrying out a portion of a prearranged plan. From private letters it is learned that the sentiment of the Whites was about unanimous in favor of keeping the peace until it was definitely learned from the Government whether the United States would annex the islands. A protectorate of any kind was what the Commissioners as well as all the foreigners declared would not be tolerated. They wanted annexation or nothing. From private letters it is learned that the secret of the revolution, the overthrow of Liliuoaka- lani and the attempt to dragoon the United States into annexing the islands is revenge on the part of Claus Spreekels. The whole trouble grew out of the lot- tery bill. This was a scheme in which there was big money and naturally Claus Spreckels, who since Kalakana’s death has once more become a prominent factor in Hawaiian politics, demanded a share of the half million a year which the lot- tery company agreed to pay for the same privilege of swindling the Kanakas that the Louisiana Lottery Company enjoys from the Statue of Louisiana. Besides this half million which was contracted for and which was to be nom- inally spent in public improvements, it is understood that an equal amount was to be distributed among Honolulu business men who had been secretly working to aid the company. The impression was given out that the entire foreign colony was against the lottery deal. But it was only the missionaries and the partisans of the missionary party who made any objection. When the scheme was first broached the Queen warmly approved it, for she had been primed by Marshal Wilson and others of her counsellors, who were to make a fat stake out of it. The one man who was ignored, and thereby made angry, was Claus Spreckels. Wilson and others who managed the deal wanted the money themselves. But they reckoned without Spreekels. He was speechless with rage when he heard that he had been frozen out of a deal that was worth at least $100,000 a year to him and he was particularly angry to be slighted by men who had climbed up to their present position largely through his money and influence. - . & he swore‘ a mighty oath and said: ‘If they leave me out of this deal, I will ~ not only smash their lottery but I will smash their government, throw out the Queen and her favorites and secure an- nexation to the United States.” How well he has kept his word the re- cent events show. STEVENS HEARD FROM. The Provisional Government of Hawaii Getting Along “’ell. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.—Late last night Secretary of State Foster received the fol— lowing dispatch from Minister Stevens: HONOLULU, Feb. 1, via San Francisco, Feb. 9, 1893. Secretary of State: Provisional Government of Hawaii gaining power and respect. Everything is quiet. Annexation sentiment is increasing. Dead monarchy and opposition to annexation is supported chiefly by lottery and opium ring.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.—— Washington was entirely unprepared for the news which came from Hawaii by way of San Francisco that the islands have .been for nine days under the protectorate of the United States, Consul Stevens having on the first instance flung the Stars and Stripes to the breeze over the Govern- ment’s building at Honolulu. The Presi- dent, the Secretary of State and his as- sistants, the Hawaiian Commissioners and members of Congress took no pains to conceal their surprise, but with aremark- able suddenness all officials months were closed and a policy of discreet silence was instantly agreed upon. $15,000 for a Crushed Ankle.

CHICAGO, Feb. 10.—Judge Gresham was asked yesterday for a confirmation or de- nial of a report that he had been offered the Secretaryship of State by President- elect Grover Cleveland and that the offer had been accepted. “I have nothing to say on the subject,” he politely remarked. Urged to dictate even the briefest of statements, he again made the same reply and added, “I am not doing any talking at the present time.” HANGING OVER POTTER. Seventy-Five Years in Prison May be the Fate of the Bank Wrecker. BOSTON, Feb. 10.—The conviction of Asa P. Potter, ex-President and wrecker of the once famous Maverick Bank, is the culmination of a long trial, at which all the facts relating to the sensational wrecking of the bank in the Fall of 1891 were brought out. The case has been bitterly fought by both the Government and the defense, and has appeared in court in a great variety of forms since Mr. Potter’s arrest in November, 1891. If the convicted man receives the maxi- mum sentence on each of the 15 counts, he will go to prison for 75 years. Excep- tions will be filed. Execution of a Negro Murderer.

' CAdveI-tiee inthe" Gm! \ IHE suuuu_suuuuuuuu; The Action of the House Puts ; It in the Background ' WHENCE IT IS NOT LIKELY TO SOON EMERGE. Cleveland’s Friends Still Hopeful-- causes of Defeat. WASHINGTON, Feb. lei—Agitation of the silver question in Congress has ceased for the present. The action of the House in so promptly and effectually disposing of the attempt to get the so-called An- drew-Cate bill before the House so that a direct vote could be had upon hit means in all probability that no further attempt will be made in this Congress to stop the purchase of silver. The representatives of President-elect Cleveland, however, do not admit their defeat, but claim that neither in the Sen- ate nor the House has a direct test vote been had, and they add the hope that in a few days the question of repealing the Sherman Silver ‘Purchase act will be brought up in another form. ‘ The vote in the House on the "adoption of the order from the Committee on Rules giving two days for the considera- tion of the silver question was rather close, and a change of six or seven votes would have meant a defeat for the silver men. It was the Republicans who saved the day for the friends of silver, just .as it was the Republicans who kept the House from passing a free coinage bill at the last session. The handful of Republican members split, one portion backing ex- Speaker Reed in voting with the anti- silver men, and the other portion, under the lead of Mr. Burrows of Michigan, “playing politics,” as they called it, by voting the other way. Mr. Reed and his fellow-Republicans were voting their convictions. Mr. Burrows and those who acted with him were, in most cases, engaged in adding thorns to the unhappy crown that the Democratic party is wear- ing just at present. .2 A very bitter party warfare has been engendered by the long struggle so des- perately fought during the past few days for some settlement of the silver question that won . d prevent it from being left a legacy to the new administration. Representative Bland spoke only what was in the hearts of more than a score of Democrats in the House when he an- nounced that if the fight on silver is per- sisted in, a serious rupture of the Demo- cratic party will be the result. The fre- quent presence of Don M. Dickinson and lienry Villard in Washington during the past few weeks as the special representa- tives of President-elect Cleveland has but added fuel to the flames, and it was said by several members that had these gen- tlemen remained in New York, or had they been more discreet in their manipu- lation of matters here, the six or seven necessary votes might have been secured and the day saved to the friends and sup- porters of the incoming administration. Three or four members at least were heard to say that they would have been more willing to vote for what the new President wanted it they had not been so persistently urged by men outside of Congress. While it is not impossible, of course, that the subject of repealing the Sherman law may again come up for action in one House or the other, or both, during the present session as some of the silver men are confident it will be, the chances are that the remaining three weeks of this session will be devoted to matters already arranged for. ‘ This conclusion brings at once to the front the question of whether or not there is to be an extra session of Con- gress in the Spring for the purpose of enacting the silver legislation desired by the Presidentvelect and which he failed to have enacted by the present Congress. It is a fact beyond dispute that the pre- vailing opinion among public men in WashingtOn today is that the new Con. gress will be called together as soon as possible after the present one dissolves and that it will be met by President Cleveland with a message laying down the lines upon which the silver bill shall be enacted. PETITION FOR CLOTURE. A Majority of House Democrats Want to Expedite Legislation. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-—A. majority of the members of the Democratic House have at last indorsed the pr0position to , - apply a cloture rule in order to accom- pliSh legislation. The attempt to secure the signature of a majority of the mem- bers for a cloture rule in behalf of the silver purchase repeal bill defeated yes- terday did not succeed, but last evening Representative Amos Cummings present- ed to Speaker Crisp apetition signed by more than a majority of the membe asking that a cloture rule be reported in connection with the motion now pending for the passage of the Hudson river bridge bill. , This action of the members indicates that there is a large majority in favor of the Green-SWan measure and that the chances are now largely in favor of its being brought to a vote and passed. There is small likelihood, howeverrth“ favorable action can be had in the Senate, as there is strong opposition in that body to the scheme which cannot easily be overcome. WASHINGTON NOTES. , The Senate in secret session confirmed the following nominations: Henry G. Kress of Wisconsin, United Statts Con- sul at Cork; Judges of Probate in Utah, J. B. Blair, Salt Lake county; L. B. Bart- lett, Grand county; A. C. BishOp, Weber county. Mr. Frye (Republican, Maine), in re- porting back adversely certain amend- ments referred to the Senate Committee on Commerce, said that the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill . already contained river and harbor'appropriations 'to the amount of about $16,000,000, and that the committee would not recommend any further river and harbor appropriatidns. Mr. Hayes of Iowa introduced in the House a resolution instructing the Inter- state and Foreign Commerce Committee to prepare a bill to carry into effect the recommendations and suggestions of the President, embodied in his recent mcs~ page to Con rose, in regard to the trans- rtotion o imported merchandise and omcctio products from one It in the United States over the Conad n territory to another. port tbcrci land mending that n dot. ho fixed to at. t bill I special order. .‘Advcrtice in the Gem.
