STEVENS ATTACKED. The speech of Mr. Vest in the Senate yes- terday afternoon was not what has come of late to be known as a “cuckoo speech” by any means. It was very evident from the way in which the Senator from Missouri took the floor to reply to Senator Frye that he was not talking by the card, and that his address was in the nature of a surprise, if not a disappointment, to the regular de- fenders of the administration. As soon as Mr. Frye had concluded, both Senators Vest and Gray were on their feet, and there was a pause of some moments before the,large man from the little state gave way to the little man from the large state. There was such a lack of concerted action on the part of the democratic Senators that it was rather in the nature of a surprise to hear Mr. Vest attack ex-Minister Stevens. But he carefully defined his position at the outset as not being that of a defender of the administration. He confined himself almost exclusively to a sectional arraign- ment of Mr. Stevens and his friends, and he went so far into the question of his mo- tives that he accused him of having flaunt- ed the traditional bloody shirt in Hawaii. Incidentally, Mr. Vest did a good deal of waving of that unpleasant garment him- self, and it is thought he thus paved the way for some red-hot sectional speeches in the future. Stealing Senator Gray’s Thunder. Senator Gray was perceptibly disturbed when Mr. Vest produced a document from which he proceeded to draw a number of so-called precedents for the tment of Commissioner Blount. The Senator from Delaware had provided himself with this ammunition and had gone to the Capitol primed with the purpose of defending the administration from the charge of uncon- stitutionality, and it was not pleasant for him to hear Mr. Vest getting off the very argument that he had secured. The docu- ment was Senate Miscellaneous 109, the minority report of the committee on for- relations, signed by Senators Morgan, Saulsbury, Brown and Payne, in support of the manner of President Cleveland in his missions from the President and the Secre- tary of State was therein given to carry out the contention that those officials have authority to appoint diplomatic agents with- out the consent of the Senate. Nor was the succeeding part of Mr. Vest's speech any more soothing to the goul of the Senator from Delaware. Mr. Vest qualified his support of the to an extent that he condemned it under certain hypotheses are pretty reasonable. ; Weuld Net Mestere the Queen by Force. He said: “I do not understand that Mr. Gresham, the Secretary of State, meant that armed force would be employed. He is an eminent jurist. He has just come from the bench. After stating his profound convic- tion, in which I share, that the provisional government is the result of a mercenary conspiracy on the part of a few adventurers and that a majority of the people of the That Would Be an Act of War. “I repeat that it would be an act and it seems to me impossible that retary of State and the President of now as given in the instructions to Mr. Blount, which I have read, it is simply a repetition and affirmation of the time-honor- ed doctrine of our country in every admin- Let Them Settle It Themselves. “If I had the power I would withdraw every shadow of United States authority from the Hawatlian Islands, except in so far as it was necessary to protect under inter- | great doctrin: national law the property and persons of American citizens legitimately residing there. I would leave the opposing factions to settle the question of for themselves. ‘There can ‘be no. solution of this question so absolute and determinate as that which would then be had between the adherents of Queen Liltuokalani and the provisional government. The doctrine of the United States through all our history has been that the people should determine their own government—not the educated people, not the titled people, not the opulent people, but, under God, the ple, rich and poor, high and low. I would leave it to the people of those islands of all classes who are legiti- mate residents there and citizens to deter- mine this question for themselves. Four our Longe ged now AP og back this woman upen the throne, Provisional vern- ment be de facto, is an act of ware and I will not believe that the President has con- templated it. For us to take part with the provisional government is to give proof that the military authority of this government is to be used in a doubtful issue by turning the scales against an overwhelming popular majority of the people. Let the Queen Look Out for Herself. “Either horn of that dilemma would de- stroy our prestige as a great republic. Either course would strike down the doc- trine of popular sovereignty upon which our government is established and upon which it must stand. If the queen have behind her enough of her people to put her back upon the throne then the government of the United States should recognize that as the government de facto and de jure of the Hawaiian Islands. If she has not that pow- er then let her go down before the decree of the great tribunal to which all true Americans bow in this land, and for which the people pray throughout the world.” At the conclusion of Mr. Vest’s remarks Mr. Gray made an abridged reference to the document from which Mr. Vest had drawn most of the sap. Senator Gordon Defends Blount. After Senator Morrill ha@ soncluded his tariff speech, Senator Gordon ‘ook the floor for about fifteen minutes to defend the char- acter of Mr. Blount against the assertions of Mr. Frye. He gave his “constituent” the highest recommendation for truth, hon- esty and general integrity that any man could desire, and read from the Congression- al Record of last February, at the time appoin 1888, the day prior to publication, in order that insertion may be as- sured. Want advertisements will be received up to noon of the day Of publication, precedence being given to those first received.
