Pock, a momber of the Kona CofTea company, with plantations on the island of | Hawaii, was at the Mercor last evening. Ho has been absent from the island since Sep tember and is now enroute , expecting to sail from San Francisco for Honolulu January 20. His company, members of vhich reside in Chicago and Denver, has a cld of 1,000 acres 150 miles inland from Honolulu, reached by river steamer. Mr. Peck is of German birtn and was veared in California. He has boen a rosi dent of Hawaii since 136 and is, of course, thotoughly conversant with the Hawaiian troubles, having boen an interested observer of the ovents leading up to tho ravolution i himselt last mght very ad verse to talking about the situation on tho islands. The latest word he had received from there was a letter, which arrved by the Australin last Saturday, stating that there was no aoubt the provisional govern ment would fight to prevent the reinstate ment of the quoen. He was arked he thought of the reports of Commission Blount, the statements of ex-Ministe Stevens and the position of President Clevelaud. To this he replied only that ho was in sympathy with the provisional government, sinee it was now established, though he, in company with those representing plantation interests, was not in favor of annexation. He believed that Mr. Blount had based his report solely on the testimoay of the deposed queen’s friends, When asked why he was opposed to nexation, he rel that the foreign contract labor law as it exists in the United States would operate to the detriment of plantation interests thero. His company, like many others, engages Japanese and Chinese fov field Javor, contracting with them for serv- ice of three yoars at £12 per month. The reason for this is that the natives are not by isposition fitted for field labor, it being too continious to suit their taste. In the courso of the conversation Mr. Peck said that he had noticed the remarks of Dr. Miller addressed to the Sundown club, as reportod in ‘Tie Bee, and lis com- ment was that the doctor was “talking through his hat" in intimating that the Sugar trust was behind the anuexation scheme.
