Their very presence, he said, implies coercive measures against it. The provisional government was established by the action of tLe American minister" and the presence of troops landed from the Boston, and it continued existence is due to the belief of the Hawaiians that if thev made an etlbrt to overthrow it they would encounter the armed fne of the I'nited Mates. The secretary says that the government of Hawaii surrendered its authority under a threat of war until such time only as the government of the I'nited State', upon tlie facts being presented it, shall reinstate the constitutional sovereign, and the provisional government was created 'to exist until terms of union with the United States of America have been negotiated and agreed upon."
