them in theevent,of their arrest by the
■iibaritiM, to which be gave his
a ■ ent.'
* It is enough to say there ie no seni
) 1 nice oi truth in this assertion oi
Blount, made by him without his ever
having hinted it? to me, or made any in
quiry of ma one ihe subject. He thus
gives the signature oi his endorsement
to a charge I never even heard of until
I found it in Blounst'e printed report.
"He says my response to the call of
the committee of .safety to land men
from the Boston does not appear in the
Mm of the legation. Tbe meaning of
this insinuation is obvious; it is enough
lo say there never was any sncb docu
ment. I received information of tbe
committee of safety for what it was
worth, a* I received other information
On tlie same subject. I should have re
quested Captain Wiltee to havo landed I
iiis force, even had not tlie committee
requested it.
"Blount squarely asserts that I prom
ised to aid the committee of safety by
force. This is emphatically and cate
gorically untrue. In reply to radical
parties "at different timeß, whether rep
resentatives of the queen or her oppo
nents, my answer was always the same,
that n force should not land until danger
should be plainly imminesnt, end then
only to protect American.'iife and prop
erty, and to no ono did I aval' hint that
I could or would recognize any but tho
de facto government, whether mon
arcbialor republican. Ate I said in ray
letter to Secretary Cresbam, I here re
affirm that the royalists and their op
ponente had equal acceasfto the legafion
and to its official head. The beet an
swer to the blameless charge thnt 1
promised to use tlie fonce against the
queen is the order from Wiltsa
to the officers and men to remain pas
sive, and that no force was used, though
the queen, thengh her ministers,
strongly requested it hours belore the
provisional government'was recognized
by me and all the other diplomatic rep
resentatives in Honolulu."
Stevens states that he had no knowl
edge of the meeting of tbe committee oi
safety at tbe residence of Henry Water
bonse, January ltith, and his first in
formation as to the persons at thai
meeting was obtained from Blount's
report.
Regarding the expectations and hopes
of the queen and her representanives on
the exciting days of Jannary 14th and
If tb, and tbe views and hopes of her
opponents, Stevens quotes the queen's
letter to bim, tbe report of Captain
Wiltee to the navy department and the
order of Captain Wiltse to Commander
Swinburn, to show that the landing of
troopa was to protect the legation and
the fives and property of American cit
izens and preserve order.
Stevens theu continues: "A copy of
the call of tbe committee of safety
which Blount insinuates I wished to
conceal from him had been promptly
forwarded to Washington in January,
and wae in a printed pamphlet of the
etate department documents, ordered
published by the senate, a copy oi
which, I suppose, Blount must have
bronght with him when he came to thb
islands.
"As aoon aa thia astute commissioner
ascertained tbat Neumann was in lull
accord with Spreckels and Blount for
Lilinokalani'e restoration to the throne,
Blount immediately learned that Neu
mann was 'a right down good fellow.'
So much for the conclusive evidence
tbat Spreckels, Neumann and Blount
were then, as now, rowing the same
boat and closely linked in a conspiracy
to damage the action of Harrison's ad
ministration and tbe senate committee
on foreign affairs on the question of an
nexation."
Stevens devotes considerable space to
showing the disreputable character of
persona furnirhing affidavits to Blount,
being especially severe on John F. Col
bourne, A. P. Peterson, Charles T. Hop
kins and Dr Frosseau. He says: 'The
testimony of hundreds of such would
not counterbalance the words of Minis
ter Thurston, President Dole and Henry
Waterhouse, among honest men who
know the respective parties. Ao to Wil
son, tbe queen's favorite lor many years,
whom Blount attempta to whitewash, I
will not poil these pages by giving even
the cotoriona fa' tB in his regard.
"As to my recognition of the provis
ional government, I reaffirm what I said
in my recent latter to Secretary (ires
ham. Queen Lilinosalani inaugurated
the revolution b,- attempting to destroy
the constitution by revolutionary r.;e>ins.

Circumstances of its creation. It was

INDIANA WOMEN SLUMMERS.
They Wetted CMci go With the Beat ol
Motives anil "Wore Shocked.
The Indianapoliß members of the Chi
cago "slumming" expedition have re
turned home. The ladies who joined in
the expedition are recognized leaders iv
W. C. T. U. work in Indiana. All of
them aro reported as excessively cha
grined over the publicity given their
visit to Chicago slums, which was under
taken with the best of motives.
"There are some falsehoods whicli
ehould be corrected," says Miss Ayres.
"We left our lodgings at 11 p. m. and
returned at 1:15 precisely. We did not
visit tho worst resorts either. We
aimed to inspect the more decent va
rieties, but the Lord knows for that
matter they were all bad enough.
The detective who guided us said it was
no uncommon occurrence for parties of
religious ladies to visit these resorts for
scientific purposes, and otir visit would
never had leaked out if it had not been
for a Judas Iscariot of a newspaper man,
who gave the whole affair away.
"We had but one simple, solitary and
laudatory purpose in making the visit,"
continued the lady. "We wanted to
find some practical means of elevaHng
fallen women. Our object was to ascer
tain what relationship the tobacco and
liquor habits bear to this unmentionable
vice which we are seeking to cure. If
we can striko at the root of the disease,
it will be a comparatively easy matter
to cure tho disease itself. We ascer
tained that thoro was a very close rela
tionship between the three vices, and
that thy latter is superinduced by the
tobacco and liquor habits. Now we
know whatever we do to lessen the
amount of tobacco and liquor sold, by
just that much will we lessen the vice
which we are aiming at."
Miss Ayres was asked if what the la
dies saw was calculated to lessen their
estimation of humanity in general,
"Tbey were simply shocking. I had
never dreamed that so much evil exist
ed. Most of the resorts wore like gilded
palace.; and were always accompanied
by liquor and tobacco attachments
where the girls indulged as freely as the
men. I never want to see the like again.
We were not prompted by morbid curi
osity. We were working in the inter
ests of social purity, and our motives
were of the highest character. We be
lieve that we did a good work."—ln

CHARGLD TO A WOMAN.
It Is Said Thtit the Ainericnn Wife of Bar
rios Baa Caused tho Guatemalan Trouble.
A woman again. We learn that the
prompter of the recent revolution in the
republic of Guatemala, through which a
dictatorship has been set up, waa an am
bitious woman, the American wifo of
General Barrios, a lady whose name is
not unknown in New York. The ene
mies of Barrios in Guatemala declare
that it was she who induced him to pro
claim himself dictator, and who is the
author of the arbitrary policy under
which the country is ruled at this time,
and under which the deputies are kept
in prison and the army is held ready for
action and suspected persons are ban
ished, and tho people aro compelled to
keep as quiet us they can. The enemies
of Barrios say that he has neither the
pluck nor tho brains needed for a dic
tator, and that he is merely the tool of
the determined American woman whom
he took to wife.
She may yet rue the day in which she
conceived the dictatorship. The an
ti-Barrios Guatemalans are aroußed
against her, They denounce her in
whispers. They condemn her in pla
cards, which aro stuok up in the night
time on the deau walls, aud fences of tlie
city of Gni'.tcmala la Nueva. They get
out circulars, which are enrrentitiously
printed and secretly distributed, in
which she is characterized as an "Amer
ican interloper." There is no doubt that
she is in danger. If the Constitutional
ists who are lurking around the capital
and on the Salvodorian frontier, stealth
ily preparing to take the field against
the dictatorship, ahall overthrow Bar
rios, we cannot say that she will not
suffer as bard a lot as sho has been
charged with inflicting upon others.
We are surprised at her course. Amer
icans ought to be the champions of dem
ocratic freedom and republican institu
tions everywhere.—New York Sun

DREAMING.
The cooling fingers of tho twilight lay
A balm upon the fevered ebb of day.
Ami, languor lulled by dream winged spirits In
theft flight
Between the half uncertain houra of dark and
light,
1 dream of thee.
Trilled through the silvery sphere of fading
day,
A Into bird homeward wlnga ita wearied way,
And. through the wide tranquillity of upper
aea . '
Attunes hia vesper note of faroff minstrelsy
To songs of thee.
Far from the west the sentinel of light
bets the dead altnraof approaching night
Aflame, and paints the ambient skies with
mystic gold.
Whose liquid light reflects the happiness of old
Of mo with thee.
The sky, the air. the sea, the earth, Its flowers,
I i" steeped in magic of tho moonlit ahowers.
And I? Far out beyond the waves, where aky
meets sea.
From star to star across the nlgbt'a tranquil
lity, i
I come to thee.
Tho evening winds, distilled from fragrant
flowers, i
Pour out their Incense on the dew wrapt hours.
And on the still, sweet harmony of alcy and seal
I stray a little space into infinity
To dwell with thee.
Thus when the fingers of the twilight gray
Pour balm v pun tho ebbing tldea of day,
I. languor lulled by dream wingod aplrlta In
their flight
Between the half uncertain hours of dark and;
light.
Can live with thee.
—Amy Seville Wolff.
