Death Sentences for Hawaiian Traitors Not Yet Carried Out. Ex-Queen Liliuokalnni on Ignorance of Be Found Guilty. Feb. The steamer Mariposa arrived from Sidney and Auckland via, Apia and Honolulu Friday morning, bringing tDe Jollowing advices: Vlacecl on Trial. HONOLULU, Fob.

S. Liliiiokalani ex-queen of Hawaii, was ar- riiigncd on the Stli instant on a chariro of misprision of treason. Tho original charge was treason. She is represented by Paul Neumann. The lirst day was frittered au-ay by the argument of counsel, who objected to the court at every turn.

His objections were overruled in every instance. After the charge was read the matter went over for a day. The case was culled again day before yesterday and the deposed monarch, re fused to plead, so a plea of not guilty was entered. The work ol! examining witnesses gone through with and enough evidence secured to prove to -the impartial observer that she was aware a rebellion was to be started. Tho 7nost damaging evidence that will be brought against her will be her personal diary, which was found iu her residence after her arrest.

Whether this is introduced and made public at her trial depends very much upon the course pursued by her counsel in defending her case. Clevftland'ii ProMont. The ex-queen recorded her thoughts, desires and impressions very freely in her diary. Among the entries made during this summer was one stating: 0, Carter called to-day atid delivered President Cleveland's present to 1 What this present was is not stated. The While the trial of the ex-queen was in progress yesterday she was placed on the stand in her own behalf.

Tho, district examination was confined to the alleged conversation between her and Charles Clark, who testified that he her of the proposed rebellion. She denied that any such conversation took place. After her examination was concluded a statement written by her was filed. It commences with the time she was deposed and goes on to say: "The movement undertaken by the Ha hist month WHS coain.encod without my knowledge, sanction, consent Ulructly or liulli-uctiy. and this fact is, in truth, well known to those who tool; part in It.

"1 must deny your to try me in this manner and by a court which you havo called together for this purpose." Will I'robably lliul Her Gullry. The military court will probably bring in a verdict of guilty in the case oi the ex-queen, notwithstanding her denial. Sentence be passed, but it is not believed she will be imprisoned, but will be allowed freedom on her own recognizance. The next case to be tried will bo that of Jonah Kanioaaoic. He was a prince under the monarchy ancTi was to be king in case the rebellion was successful.

The quecu was to abdicate in his favor in order to keep Princess Kaiu- laui from the throne. This fact is well known by all English residents. Willis Objected to Importation. The Yi'arrimoo's departxire for Victoria was delayed for two hours in order to give JoTmstone, Mueller and Cranston, banished men, opportunity to sec thoir respecti'-e consuls. Johnstone talked to British Commissioner llarres, after which, he stated he was satisfied to go.

Cranston saw Minister Willis, protested to the government, claJmiug it had no right to send-men out of the country without first' giving them a trial. The German consul also objected in the case of Mueller. After the steamer sailed Minister Willis boarded the Philadelphia and had a conference with. Admiral, Beardslee. 3The movements of Willis were watched anxiously and it is the government fears he will-call the forces of-the aid in case the irov- ernmenC decides to hang 'WUJard Seward, one of the men condemned by the military court.
