NO POMP ATTENDS THE WEDDING OF THE REPUBLICS Ceremonies Brief and Simple, Concluding With a Salute to Old Bugles Sound "Taps” Glory. Over the Symbolic Grave of Hawaii’'s Defunct Nationality-. BY HORACE WRIGHT. Special Correspondence of The Call. DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS, HONOLULU, H. I, August 8, 1898. Sir: I have the honor to inform you that the ceremony attend- ing the transfer of the sovereignty of the republic of Hawali to the United States will take place at nos on on Friday, August 12, and thereupon the powers of the Minister of Foreign Affairs will cease so far as they relate to the conduct of diplomatic intercourse be- tween hawaii and foreign states. The existing customs relations of Hawaii with the United States and other countries are to remain unchanged until the Congress of the United States shall have extended the customs laws of the Unit- ed States to this country. For this reason Hawaiian Consuls abroad will continue in the exercise of their official duties. I have the honor to be, sir, your most cbedient servant, HENRY E. COOPER, Minister of Foreign Affairs. HONOLULU, Aug. 11.—The foregoing is the formal notification addressed to the diplomatic and consular corps in- forming the representatives of foreign powers of the demise of the Republic sovereign independence by the United States of America. The ceremonies attending the trans- fer of the sovereignty will, so far as | theiffofficial character is concerned, be brief and simple, and the day would have passed off almost tamely and quietly had it not been for the strenu- ous efforts of the jingo annexationists who have practically carried their wa in regard to a grand popular demon- stration which for enthusiasm is pro- jected to be as historical as the im- portant event it will commemorate. It | is useless to speak in detail of the bit- ter words said and printed before the people were permitted to have a voice in the celebration, for clamor has won a victory after a hard-fought contest with the federal and local authorities, and by-gones may as well be buried with the walls of the Hawailan mourn- ers in the promise of the resurrection of hopeful days. ' In brief, the ceremonies will be im- posing and picturesque. In front of the executive building (the former palace) will be erected substantial platforms to accommodate distinguished guests and Admiral Miller, Minister Harold M. Sewall, President Dole and the officials. The National Guard of Hawaii will pro- c¢eed to the water front and thence es- cort the United States troops to the Government building, where they will mass right and left with the United States forces facing the building. The citizens’ guards and mounted reserve, sharpshooters and other organizations will take up prominent positions around them and the grounds will be given up to the people. The day has been mad: a legal holl- day in order to insure a large attend- | ance, but the Hawaiians and their | sympathizers have determined to reli- gious if unw remain absent, all efforts, pecuniary or otherwise, to in- duce them to participate having igno- miniously failed. The Hawailan flag will be lowered to the air of the Hawalian national an- | them, “Hawali Ponoi,” played by the Hawaiian band, a salute will be ed and the bugles will sound “taps’ over the symbolic grave of F ii’s defunct | nationality. Minister Sewall will read | the authority conveyed in President McKinley's instructions to him, the stars and stripes will be unfurled from the loftiest tower of the State House with the strains of the ‘‘Star-spangled Banner,” rendered by the band of the Philadelphia, lutes and the flag ral ing bugle calls. The populace will then have an opportunity to vent its enthu- si with cheers and patrlotic speech- es and songs, in which it probably will be led by Minister Sewall, President ter Cooper and othe ening some tons of fireworks will be exploded, and at 9 o’clock there will be a grand reception, followed by a ball in the halls of the Legislature. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the oaths of allegiance to the United States will be administered to all the officials and employes, high and minor, civil , by the heads of depart- ment, and notaries public holding Gov- ernment positions. This forenoon I had the unsatisfac- | tory pleasure of again seeking some | definite information in regard to our future status from President Dole, + United S s Minister Sewall. The | first named two w as unpleasantly secretive as heretofore on the subject, | maintaining that they were under of- ficial and personal pledges to Mr. Se- wall of absolute secrecy, and they could not even divulge the slightest ap- proach te information. Mr. Harold M. Sewall was more talk- ative without transgressing the in- | structions he was under to preserve si- | lence inviolate until he made the of- | | | ficial announcement he was directed to make on the morrow by President Mc- Kinley. He knew that the statement he was to make was based almost ex- | clusively on the form of the Newlands reso.ution of annexation and followed it implicitly so far as the future tem- porary form of government was con- There were, of course, de- tails to be mentioned, but the purport and effect of these it would be. im- proper for him to disclose. He might say that all the present officials of the | Hawalian /Government would remain in office and conduct the affairs of the | Governmgnt on its present lines so far as it was practicable, but he could not | say what the titles of Mr. Dole or the other officials would be, or whether their titles would officially correspond with those vof officials of the United States transacting duties of a similar nature, nor could he say what would be the descriptive title of the country | in descriptive, legislative or legal doc- | uments. So far as the American le- | gation was concerned, its name and present duties would end at noon to- | morrow. He himself would remain | here to carry cut the instructions con- | fidea to him by President McKinley. The name and duties attaching to such a confidential position could not at present be disclased. | As to the question of citizenship, all | in the Governmert employ would have to take the customary oath of alle- | glance to the United States. In re- gard to others, let that be a matter for future consideration; stances there would be tions to be solved. There were certain fixed principles and laws governing such transfers of sovereignty, and they were simple, but as regards such per- Sons as were neither American nor Ha- waiian citizens the question of citizen- ship would be one for further instruc- tions. The question of a man who had been an American citizen, but who was now a Hawailan, was placed before him, and the Minister's personal, not official, impression was that no oath was, for the present at least. required. Knowing that Minister Cooper had transferred the question of compensa- tion to British and other foreign resi- dents for imprisonment during the 1895 fiffinr to Mr. Sewall, I ventured to ask him to confirm the fact, which he read- ily did. The papers in the matter have been forwarded to Washington, where the representatives of the foreign pow- ers concerned will take up the matter. The probability is that at a convenient season the precedent of the Japanese ims will be followed, and in view of e amicable relations existing between the United States and the several coun- tries interested, including Great Brit- ain, Germany, Portugal, Greece, Den- mark and Norway and Sweden, they will be dealt with according to their merits. The claims made by American citizens on the same grounds have been similarly dealt with. I am informed by reliable authority that the discussion of these matters will lead to unpleasant comments of diplomatic breach of faith on the part in Many in- knotty ques- { of the Foreign Office of Hawail, not a novel charge by any means. It is also stated by an eminent financier that the finances of the Government, when ey. perted, will show an’indebtedness be yond the $4,000,000 agreed to be pald by the United States of America of up- ward of $25 BOSTONESE BEAT REDS IN A CLOSE CONTEST NATIONAL LEAGUE STANDING.

VALLEJO, Aug. 20.—Joseph C. Hard- ing, a resident of this city, was drowned at Mare Island this afternoon. He was a plumber and was working on the scuppers of the Adams, when he climbed over the side to reach a small staging. A life line was maintained at this point, but he failed to reach it and fell between the staging and ship. It is believed that he struck his heaq in falling. Boats from naval vessels and Vallejo dragged for the body, which was found about two hours later and brought to Vallejo.

Blaine Jr. Misbe- haves in Honolulu. GROSSLY INSULTED A LADY HER IRATE HUSBAND GIVES DE- SERVED PUNISHMENT. The Disgraceful Incident Occurred at a Swell “Hula” Given at the Home of a Native. HONOLULU, Aug. 11.—The actions of Captain James G. Blaine, who accom- panied one of the recent expeditions to Manila, while stopping at Honolulu, have occasioned a great deal of com- ment and much regret is expressed both by army officers and citizens that the son of the famous statesman to create a disturbance in a house where he was a guest. There are many stories concerning the riot, the difference in them being largely due to the fact that every ef- fort was made to suppress the matter, but it finally leaked out.and the result is that most of the stories are so wild as to cause more comment than if the truth had been openly stated. Some ef- fort was made in fact to induce the general public to believe that no row had occurred, but Blaine's spoiled face gave the lie to any such statement. The story as received from a good source is as follows: Some of the na- tives in their desire to do everything for the amusement of their guests ar- ranged for a “hula,” a form of diver- sion prohibited by the law. The invi- tation was readily accepted and Blaine was one of the party. In the course of the evening a few bottles of a native beverage were produced and as the bottles became empty the little party of officers became full. particularly hilarious and apparently got the ida into his head that he owned the whole of the Hawaiian Islands and all that breathed therein. He began casting surreptitious glances at a buxom Hawaiian woman, and finding himself unobserved began to display his feelings more openly and essayed a few soft embraces for the winning him by the daughter of the sunny isl- ands. At this point in the proceedings the husband of the woman became aware of what was going on and he turned upon the officer with the fury of a tiger. He struck the young officer a blow which stretched him out on the floor and a fight followed. The young officer's friends went to his assistance, but the imsult of young Blaine to the Hawaiian woman was too gross for even the peace loving, good natured natives to overlook, and the young American guests in whose honor the entertainment was being given were thrown out of the residence and had they not taken to flight and hid themselves on their transport one or more of the party might now be oc- cupying graves under the lordly palms of America’s new possessions.
