4 THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘WEDNESDAY. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and stead of Washington or Honolulu was the real center of negotiations. The British newspapers have in numerous instances re- ferred to the alliance between Uncle Sam ‘January 10, 1894-/ 154 John Bull in bolstering up the Ha- walian monarchy. The Pall Mall Gazette said recently: “The announcement concerning Hawaii permanent circulation nearly double | "tained in President Cleveland's message the combined circulation of the other has set the provisional government by ears.

The N. Y. well-founded opinion that Mr. Willis was eminently fitted to fill a very ticklish diplo- matic position. The long delay which pre- ceded action by Wlilis seemed to corrobo- rate the good opinion which was so freely expressed and there were many democrats who declared that the Kentuckian had surely saved the administration from em- barrassment of the most serious sort. But the news from Hawaii throws new light on Mr. Willis and sharply outlines some ex- tremely unpleasant features. Obedient, doubtless, to some of the secret instructions which the administration properly feared to put In writing, Minister Willis held over the heads of the provisional government the threat of a forcible restoration of Lili- uokalani by the United States forces at Honolulu. The published instructions de- elare that Minister Willis was not empow- ered to use force. If the verbal instruc- tions were to the same effect then Mr. Wil- lis’ behavior in leading the provisional gov- ernment to believe that he had authority to make war was deception for which no apology or explanation that could possibly be constructed can avail. If he was pro- ceeding in accord with the whispered in- structions, then the obloquy is Mr. Cleve- land's. Which is the guilty one—master or servant? It is refreshing to realize that the Amer- ican naval officers on duty were entirely out of sympathy with the policy of degra- dation which Mr. Willis has so assiduously but unsuccessfully endeavored to work to @ conclusion that would satisfy the Presi- dent. Of course those officers would not have disobeyed an order from Admiral Ir- win—even though it meant nothing less than the slaughter of Americans—but it is said that they had agreed to demand that any command which involved the firing up- on men of their own biood be given in writing and that before executing it they would have made vigorous but respectful protest. After that they intended to obey the transmitted dictum of President Cleve- land’s diplomatic representative. If there has been anything creditable in the deal- ings of the administration with the recog- nized government of Hawaii the incident has not yet been made public. —_ +02 —_ Naval enthusiasts were nuch surprised when it was some time ago developed that at least three or four of the most recent ad- ditions to our ocean forces were lacking in stability and were really unfit for service outside a well-protected harbor. That such errors in design should have been made by officers who were supposed to be thoroughly competent was humiliating, but there is a trifle of satisfaction in knowing that hap- penings of that sort are not uncommon even where many years of experience (which we on this side of the Atlantic lack) should have made error almost impossible. One of the latest-constructed ships in the British navy—H. M. 5S. Resolution—is uafit tor a voyage. An old officer who was on board the Resolution says he never had a more terrify- ing experience than in a recent storm. Fears were first excited by the ship rolling forty- two degrees each way in moderate weather, and when the gale came on and the sea rolled over the forebridge, which was thirty- seven feet from the level, very many were willing to believe that foundering was cer- tain. So far no such crankiness has tevel- oped in any of our vessels, but in view of the shortcomings of H. M. S. Resolution and of the le&s serious defects of the U. S. S. Machias and Detroit and a couple of others, too much care cannot be taken to provide sufficient stability. The loss of a warship and her crew through defective designing would do more to retard the building of a navy than all other adverse causes com- bined. Soe If the law keeps on asserting itself as it has been doing for some time past the great bookmaking and winter racing combine will have to seek “fresh fields and pastures new.” Intent upon assailing this city and exerting every influence to aid in making this the headquarters of the most noto- riously dishonest and demoralizing form of sport, the sharps took their eyes off New Jersey. And now the last of their hopes in that region has apparently been crushed Ly a decision of the New Jersey supreme court. At its last session the state legis- lature was crowded into passing a nine- months’ racing law, by the terms of World's correspondent says on the authority of officers of the British gunboat Champion and of the Philadelphia and Adams that on the morning of the 19th “the marines of all the warships in the harbor, including the British and Japanese, were ready to land to restore the queen.” The World's correspon- dent also says: “There is a bitter feeling in the provis- jonal government against the British min- ister, Mr. Wodehouse, They accuse him of intriguing, first, to secure the restoration of} i and if that should fail, to secure rit There is some danger that Great Britain having used Mr. Cleveland as far as the constitution and public sentiment of the re- public will permit him to be used may dis- card him as an instrument of its diplomacy and go ahead now without him. Suppose that the United States marines cannot with- out consent of Congress land at Honolulu, slaughter the American and civilized ele- ment of the population, and restore the cor- Tupt queen, what is there to prevent the British and Japanese marines from per- forming this work, relieving their ally in spirit of this portion of the common task? What could Mr. Cleveland say in opposition to this course? He takes such a view of his moral obligations that this unholy alli- ance has been formed and has followed its logical course until this is the only step re- maining to be taken. How can he remons-| trate with his allies for doing for him that which he has virtually announced .ought to be done by himself, but which the American constitution prevents him from doing? Notice should be given to Great Britain in some way which would prevent any posst- bility of misunderstanding that John Bull's secret alliance to restore a pro-English Queen and to crush American interests and aspirations in Hawali is with Mr. Cleveland and not with Uncle Sam, and that the peo- annexation of the islands by Great | ple of this republic will never permit that outrage to be perpetrated, either by En- gland alone, or by England and Mr. Cleve- land in combination. ——++e—___ Maryland's legislature will have several measures of importance to deal with during its present session, but between whiles it would do well to pass the bill, introduced | yesterday, which provides that the death renalty shall be inflicted electrically and not by the rope. This is a reform that needs no argument in its behalf. Against great influence the friends of electrocution suc- ceeded in pushing the original electrocution bill through the New York legislature and although the first execution under that law was not an unqualified success subsequent “takings off” satisfactorily established the supremacy of the mysterious current as an executioner. Ordinarily the American peo- ple are quick to take advantage of anything that promises to modernize and improve any condition, but there has been incompre- hensible slackness in retiring a primitive and frequently-bungled method of removing those who have been adjudged unfit to live. Quite recently has the good name of Mary- land suffered by reason of indecencies which have accompanied executions in that state; such exhibitions would not be possible should the bill now before the Maryland senate become law. Death comes noiseless- ly and painlessly through the wire and as the fatal application is made in secret there can be no howling mob of spectators to make a brutal holiday of what should be the most serious of moral lessons. —_—_—_+¢e—_____.

The solution of the mystery of Cleveland's crusade for the reinstatement of the ex-queen, outside of any disposition which may have existed in pursuance of Mr. Blount’s so-called “com-| mon sense diplomacy” to reverse everything | done by the preceding administration, is perhaps a sentimental one. It is understood that when the Princess Katulani on her Visit to Washington came to see the presi- dential household under British auspices she | made a very favorable impression upon the President and Mrs. Cleveland, and no doubt enlisted their sympathies very warmly in her behalf. It is quite likely that the un. dertaking to restore Queen Lil was entered upon by the President only with the idea that the ex-queen, who is of a short-lived family and race and who is likely to speed her end by her dissolute habits, would soon Pass away and that then the pleasing and respectable princess would come to the throne and would make a creditable ruler for Hawaii. This was just what British diplomacy was aiming at in sending her to Cleveland under the auspices of Davies, the British diplomatic agent. It makes no dif. ference to England whether Queen Lil who has been concerned in all the intrigues of the “English party” in Honolulu against American interests is reinstated, or whether the Princes Kaiulani who has been educated in England and has been continuously in the hands of the English diplomatic corps should occupy the throne. That the Presi. dent fell into the trap set for him by the British 1s shown by every indication. The first intimation of the restoration policy came to the American public through Eng- lish sources.
