Hoston, Jan. -State (Senator Mil- man, of Newton, who Is better prepared tlinn nny one else in this section of the country to speak of matters tit the Sandwich Islands i't'oin his many years of residence there nnd intimate rclntions then and since witli the royal family, says: King halakauas sister, her Royal Highness the Princess Lydia Lilinoka-lnni, wns appointed a short timo nfter the king to the throne, and for a 1' I'lllNCKSS UI.IUOKAT.AXt, (Probaljlo succos-oi' to Kalukuua.) the purpose of securing successor as heir apparent, and she has been recognized as such fur the past sixteen years.

She has always taken a prominent part in tho receptions at the palace and in the gnyeties connected therewith. Undoubtedly she has a predisposition for public life, nnd it is an open secret that she has anticipated coming to the throne. During tlie King's trip around the world, several years since, she. wns appointed as Uegent during his absence, and fulfilled the responsible I position ith in ptability. During tho trouuicsoi in, i ot the last few, years, attempts havo been made to connect her with 'ilcox's political escapades, but without there being satisfactory proofs of the charges, hho was pro claimed Jiegcnt on the King's leaving I the island recently, on his trip to California.

Information received from the islands speaks of political mutters thero being quiet. The exciting incidents which attended the last Legislature have all subsided. The Princess will undoubtedly bo proclaimed tjueen immediately upon the receipt of tho news- at Honolulu of the death of tho late King, nnd there need be no fear of political complications arising from such a proclamation, as therefore no others of royal birth or rank who nre likely to ussail any right to the tJovernment control. It is thought that she will be fully as favor able toward America's interests us was her Into brother. Thero may bo some changes in the Cabinet left by tlie late King, but as they came into power with the full accord of the majority of the native people, und since their appointment have done very well, they will very likely be retained.

The paluco of the Count of FlanderH, where the Princess resides, is surrounded by a strong force of police, who are doing their utmost to prevent he unusual noise in tlio streets from arousing tho suspicions ol.thc taitfering Princess. The sudden death of Prince lhiudoin has caused the most alarming rumors to bo circulated on all sides und theso rumors grow In importance as the day progresses.

THE TROUBLE WITH THE PRESIDENT. Jfo Hope For lllm If the Army Joins tlie Nlivy In Revolt, M'lilcli an Argcntlue Snyn the Arniy Has Done, rAtus.

SIS. Admiral T.a Torre, of tlio Chilian navy, noted as the capturer of tho ironfltitl lluuscar in the wur be tween Chili and lVru, hns been Bent by President iiulmneedn, of Chili, to En-rope to supervise the bnildinff of war ships for the eoimtry. In nn interview ho denied thnt the Chilian nnvy had been unfairly treated as compared with the army in the distribution of Peruvian war honors. There wan no animosity he said between the army and the navy. The two bodies hardly ever meet, nnd there was small chance of feeling' of jeulotisy existing between oiliccrs of the two branches of the service.

Tho Admiral did not know why tho navy should lead the revolution in Chill, except that the chivalrous notions of tho olllcers miyht make them readiest to respond to an appeal for revolution. The naval oliicers, he said, must have acted on jrencrous impulse. Ueinjr far from the lmmediato center of affairs, they must have becli carried away more by sentiment than by any real knowl-cg-o of the situation. Admiral La I orre further said that if the army joined the movement the end of the revolution would only be a mat ter of a few days, lie thoug-ht a con-ilict between the army and navy en tirely improbable. ho navy, he said, could not easily blockade tho whole coast owinu; to its great extent, while tlio Admiral of the Ilritisli Meet would eventually object to the blockndo by calling' the attention of the commander of tho blockading' licet to the fact that ho must not Interfere with the commerce of neutral powers.

lhcconihet between President llal- maceda and the Chilian Congress, said Admiral La Torre, might havo arisen from a suspicion that the President wan trying to Influence the public mind and intrigue in favor of tho man whom ho wished to succeed hiin in tho Presidency. President P.alinaeeda was also licensed of having broken a pi'omisc to eil'ect municipal reforms. In addition to the cause of irritation was his action In dissolving' the special session of Congress. Admiral La Torre believes the revolution will be speedily settled, llo is of the opinion that Presklent linlinaecda, as soon as he sees the current of feeling really against him, will withdraw from the Presidency.

This destroyed tho means of supplying fresh air to tho 'J00 men men working beneath the surfiR'e. Tho camp was in a panic at once.

llepresentative Adams, whoso condition cauwd his party friends much uneasiness, has much improved. It was expected that a surgical operation would be necessary to relievo him of the pain nnd nnnnyiuieo caused by his eye, which was accidentally injured some time In December. It now turns out that the mi tiering was simply nn acute uttuck of neuralgia, and tho injured eye had little if'nny thing to do with it. No siuyical operation lias been found necessary, and it is now believed that Mr. Adams will soon fully recover the use of hi 4 eye.

llo was able to attend church in the morning, accompanied by his wife, who is hero with him, ami took a long walk yesterday afternoon. Mr. Adams said het evening: wanted to pair witli Mr. Weedon, a Republican Representative from my district (Fortieth), but tho Republican steering committee decidedly refused to allow Mr. Weedon to pair ith me.

Dr. Moore, one of the M. H. A. Representatives, heard of ley desire and also of the steering committee's decision, nnd he came at once mo and said heartily that no advantage should bo taken of my condition it lie could help it.

Then he told mo Hint if at any timo I wns unable to lie present at the joint sessions he and other F. M. A. members would 'stand 01V. meaning, I suppose, that they would refuse to vote.

The Democrats, of course, understand this agreement, nnd in case I am absent will also refuse to vote, so that no quorum will be found present for voting. "The Democrat continued -Mr. Adams, "have been very anxious about me and have been very kind to me. Should an operation upon my cyo become necessary they will at oiico tit up a room in the Capitol building for my occupancy and hen I am unablo 1 1 go into the House during tho joint session they will curry mo in so that 1 may respond when my 11:11110 is called, (ieneral Palmer has oli'ered to do any thing in his power for my assistance.

Mr. Cockfcll, expressed himself as follows: "I am confident that sooner or Inter 11 man of our choice will secure the I'uited Stales Scniitorship." Kach one of them still asserts that ex-Senator Strector is "tho man of their choice." When asked if they would support Btroctor throughout the coming week, llepresentative Cocktvll asserted: "Yes, und throughout the coming month if necessary. He is the only man in my i-siliiiatiiu who wiil receive our support If my efforts are worth any thing." llepresentative Moore expressed the same sentiments, saying: "Strector is our choice J'reni tirst to last," "Yes, I am still for Strector," said Herman Tuubeiicck, "and will make the same answer whenever I am asked about It.

Although we have but three voles for him now we hope ere long to tilive the other hundred necessary to secure bK election." The Taubcncclt investigating committee is preparing its report und will submit it to the House early in the week. 1'he committee examiiud every witness Mr. 'i'aubeneck desired and some others on its owuhohulf.

Mr.

will bo publicly vindicated. Fully three-fourths of the members of tlio llencral Assembly left the city Saturday night to spend Sunday at home, and it was not thought that all would get buck in time for tho joint session. Hut tiie leaders of both parties express themselves us confident Hint their lull membership will bo present. Hotli the Democratic nnd Republican steering committees hnvo sent telegrams to every absent member, urging liim to use his utmost efforts to reach the city nnd to even sueriflee his personul comfort nnd his business interests, if uceessury, in order thnt ho may be present when tho joint assembly is called to order at neon.
