Lowell Sun (Newspaper) - November 21, 1893, Lowell, Massachusetts THE LOWELL BATEY SUN TUESDAY NOVEMBER 21 1803 ILY MW F HAWAII Says Queen Was Deposed by a Conspiracy WAS THIS CHIEF ER IN THE MOVEMENT The Queen Was Overawed by can Nov 21 Secretary Grenham decided yesterday afternoon to make public alt tho and the report of James II tbo special sent to Hawaii by President Cleveland to investigate the revolution which dethroned Queen Liliuokalani and the establishment of the provisional government Mr Blount arrived at Honolulu March SO 1803 In hla report he calls attention to his reception by Minister Stevens who accompanied by a committee from the Annexation dub came on board the sel which had me Ho informed me tkat the club had rented an elegant house well famished and provided with servants and carriage and horses fur my use tbat I conld pay for this tion just what I chose from nothing up He urged me very earnestly to accept the offer I declined it nnd Informed him that I should RO to a hotel The committee renewed the offer which wan declined He also refused to accept favors from the Mr fllount tells how Minister Stevens called upon him with W C Smith who represented that the withdrawal of the United States marines meant that the Japanese would land troops from a In the harbor minister expressed his belief in the ment The commissioner put a stop to these rumors by having the vessel ordered away The provisional ment left to its own preservation left him free to pursue his negotiations Remote nnd Proximate Commissioner says that the causes of the of the queen and the establishment of the provisional government are both remote nnd He then reviews the history of the ands at some length beginning with the constitution of 1853 and the changes made in the system of government since down to the revolution of 1887 which resulted in the constitution of that year and which is to a treat extent given by Mr Blount as tbo cause of tho revolution of 1893 Under the cans preceding there were abuses and especially those re- from the election of 1880 when the legislature passed n of bad laws the lottery and opium license lawn in which it was charged that the kine was very corrupt Mr Blount tuat this legislature would not have caused a revolution In any of the United States but the reformers In the islands declared thai The native is until for government and bis power must be curtailed Among mentioned in forcing King la Mr Thurston BOW minister from Hawaii Mr Blount presents a tion of the constitution of 1887 in which be notes the changes which were unsatisfactory to the monarch such as removing the power of appointing the nobles to one branch or the legislature re- their membership to persons with amounting to at least and establishing suffrage qualifications which gave the whites control in tho tions It also afforded an opportunity for whites Americans English aud Germans to vote without becoming naturalized Revelation The moat Interesting portion of Mr report is that concerning the revolution which be explains as Nearly all of the arms of the island of in which Honolulu is situated were in the possession of the queen's ment A military force organized and drilled occupied the station house the barracks and tbe palace the only points to strategic significance in the event of a conflict The great body of the people moved on their usual course Women nnd childrea passed to and fro through the streets Beamingly unconcerned of any impending danger and yet there were secret ences held by small body of some of whom were Germans some Americans And some native born subjects of foreign origin On Jan 14 they took up the sub- ject of dethroning the queen and ing a new government with a view to an- to the United States Tbe first and most momentous question with them was some plan to have tbo United States troops landed Thurston who appears to have been the leading spirit sought two of the queen's cabinet and urged them head a movement against the queen and to ask Mr Stevens to the troops them that in such an event Mr Stevens would do so failing to enlist any of the queen's in the cause it was necessary to some other mode to accomplish the purpose A committee of safety ing of 13 members hod been formed from a little body of men assembled in W O office a deputation of in- forming Mr Stevens of their plans ar- ranged with him to land tho troops if they would ask it for the purpose of protecting life and property Cut and Dried It was agreed between him and them that in the event they should occupy the government building and proclaim a new government be would recognize it The two leading members of the Messrs Thurston and Smith Browing un- easy to the safety of persons went to him to know if he would protect them in tho event of their arrest by the to which he gave his assent At the mass meeting called by tbo committee of safety on Jan 16 there WHS no communication to the any purpose to dethrone the queen or to change the form of but only to the committee to take steps to prevent a consummation of the queen's purposes and to have guarantees of public safety The committee on public safety had kept their purpose from the public view at this moss meeting and at their gatherings for fear of proceedings by tho government of the queen After the mass meeting had closed a call on the American minister for troops was made and signed by Germans by Americans and by Hawaiian subjects of foreign extraction The commissioner says the response to that call does not appear on the files of the legation That very night the tee of public safety assembled in a house next to Minister J II an American wss elected to com- mand the military forces It was on day evening Jan 16 at 5 o'clock that United States troops were landed Not much time elapsed before it was oat by members ot the of safety tout they were designed to port them At the with the amongst the leaders ot the military forces and tbe great body of tbe people loyal to the queen the apprehension that it was a ment hostile to tbe existing government bgr Stevens Protests were filed by tbe minister of foreign affairs and by the governor ot the Island against the landing of troops Messrs Parker and Peterson testified that on Tuesday at 1 o'clock they called on Mr Stevens nnd by him were informed that in the event the forces the insurrectionary force be would Intervene At o'clock of the same day the members of the provisional proceeded to the government building in squads and read their mation They had separated in their march to the government building for fear of observation and arrest Mr Blount describes the location of tbo troops showing that the American troops controlled the position of the queen's forces aud They were less so located to suggest to the queen and her counsellors that they were in tion with the insurrection movement and would when the emergency arose fest it by active support It did doubtless suggest to tho men who read the mation that they were having the port of the American minister and naval commander and wore safe from personal harm Why had the American minister the troops in such a situation and then assured the members of the tee on safety that on their occupation of the government building he would nize it as a government de and as such give it Why was the government building designated to them as the place which when their tion was announced there would be lowed by his It was not a point of any strategic con- sequence It did not involve the meat of a single soldier A building was chosen where there were no troops where there was no struggle to ba made to obtain access with An American force immediately contiguous with the of the population impressed with its unfriendly attitude Aye more than this before any de- mand for had ever been made on tlie queen or on tilts commander of any officer of any of her military forces at any ot the points wheto her troops were tbe American minister had the provisional government and was ready to give it the support of the United States Aliened Mr Blonnt shows the position which the queen occupied be protests aud describes tho relationship ot men concerned in the revolution The various commissioners of tbe provisional government and Minister are quoted and commented upon Mr Blount shows that It was a collusion on tbe part of the minister and the He goes into the details of the matter and points out by time and place the haste with which Mr Stevens acted and by quoting from Stevens report and the papers gtt lie at the legation declares that the minister misrepresented the tion to tho United States gove He points to the lack of harmony in the ments and criticises Stevens Mr Stevens consulted freely with the leaders of the revolutionary movement from the evening of the 14th Thesa dis- closed to him all their plans They feared arrest and punishment He promised them protection They needed the troops on shore to overawe the queen's supporters and government This he agreed to and did furnish They had few arms and no trained diers They did not mean to fight It was arranged between them and the American minister tbat the proclamation ing the queen and organizing a government should be real from the government building and he would follow it with a speedy recognition All this was to be done with American troops provided with small arms and artillery across a narrow street within a stone's throw This was done Stevens Blamed For It All Tbe leaders of the revolutionary ment would not have undertaken it but for Mr Stevens promise protect them against any danger from the government But for this the mass meeting would not have been held But for this no request to land troops would have been made Had the troops not been landed no ures for the organization of tbe new would have bom taken Tho American minister and tbo revolutionary leaders had determined on a new addition to tho United States and had agreed on the part of each to act to the very end Mr Blount says that the native race feel that a great wrong has been done them and their When the resigned under protest she did not believe that the action of Stevens would be and he Indeed who could have supposed that the circumstances surrounding her could have been foreseen aud sanctioned de- by the President of the United States Her uniform conduct and the prevailing sentiment amongst the natives point to her belief as well as their own that the spirit of justice on the part of the president would restore her crown
