INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN BY SECRETARY FOSTER EE- FERRED TO—WHAT ANNEXATION cosrmrs- SIONER CARTER SAYS ABOUT IT—OPINIONS OF SOME REPRESENTATIVES IN CONGRESS. The startling news from Honolulu via San Teischins of Sn Reacting Bowe of the United States flag, it is enid, was the subject of |animated discussion at the cabinet meet- ing today. Before going into the cabi- net room Secretary Gresham said to a reporter that he had received no information whatever aside from that printed in the Papers, When questioned farther as to the truth of the statements contained in special dispatches to western news Papers that Mr. Blount was conniving to express any opinion upon the subject. EX-SECRETARY FOSTER'S INSTRUCTIONS. In regard to the hauling down of the United States flag attention is called to these passages in the instructions issued under the poten administration by Secretary John W. Foster =— Stevens under date of February ig ing rouraction in theaskumption of pro- tection of the Hawaiian Islands of the United States would appear to be {antamoont to the sssumption of tectorate over those ocbalt | of your proclamation in | hours acquainting his #uccessc in the name | taste of cod-liver oil has done service— but the that both kills the taste and yy snag” sad tial digestion has much more.

The change in the chief clerkship of the | State Department took place today, and Mr. Chilton, the retiring official, speat several Mr. Rock! ith the routine business of his office. 5 Mr. Chilton was not removed. He was merely requested to resign with the promise of another jeppointment. There was no reflection whnt- of the United States, with alla all the ‘Tights and | ever on his administration and the change was obligations which the term implies. To this extent it goes beyond Tecessities of the situation and the instructions heretofore given you. * * So far as your action amounts to, oueaiing to the ‘request of the de facto sovereign government of the Hawaiian Islands, the co-operation of the moral and material forces of the aa States for the pro- tection of life and ty from hended disorders, your action is commended. But so far as it may appear to overstep that limit by setting the authority and power of the United States above that of the government of Hawaiian Islands, in the capacit} =F or to impair in en, way the independent of flog and power of the United States as the sym- bol and manifestation of paramount authority, it is disavowed.” It is contended, in view of the statements from President Dole that the provisional gov- ernment could maintain and protect itself against assault from within, the necessity for the presence of rines on shore fying of the United States flag has passed. Therefore, it is argued, Mr. Blount was correct in order- ing the marines to their boats and the fiag to be bauled down, especiaily if the presence of the fiag over the government building in Honolulu, as stated, tended to impede diplo- matic relations between the two countries and to embarrass negotiations. WHAT COMMISSIONER CARTER SAYS. Mr. Chas. L. Carter, one of the Hawaiian an- nexation commissioners, was seen at his hotel by a reporter and asked if he hed any news. a Sheuking of the lowering of the United States by Mr. Blount’s order Mr. Carter said: rey of the policy of the government as ex- pressed by the late administration. Secretary — Foster’ attitude was satis- factory to the annexationists, and he promptly vowed the protectorate. The force of to the request ernment to protect and agunst assaults and danger from tives, ‘The necossity for this has passed; annexation movement hes geined strength ‘and d President Dole bas announced United States were no longer essential, and with their | removal, of couree, the flag camo down. What | we all regret is that events have made it neces- sary to pursue that course. We had hoped, when it once was hoisted, that annexation 1d be accomplished and that it might never be hauled down.” ‘No advices from Honolulu have been re- ceived at the Navy Department. Officers on duty there are disappointed and speak with re- luctance about the matter. Navy officers, as a ule; are strongly in favor of annexing these islands and are inclined to consider the bring- ing to an end of the protectorate as a step back- ward. MR. BLOUNT'S ALLEGED INSTRUCTIONS. There is a diplomatic reticence around the White House concerning the nature of the in- | structions given Commissioner Blount in his mission to Hawaii, but it is stated with some positivenees that given authority for hauling down the | tars and stripes at Honolulu prior to his de- parture from Washington. It is understood that Mr. Biount was given definite in- structions to withdraw the protectorate of the United States over Hawaii in order that this government might find | itself free in dealing with the main question of annexation, but on the day of his departure | Gambling sud. prow for San Francisco he was cautioned to confide this information to no person whatsoever, in order that the mo- tives and the intentions of the adminis- tration might not be construed so as to cause trouble among the Hawaiians. On the after- noon of for San Francisco Mr. Blount spent come time at the White Honse.
