Ban Francisco,March 27—The steam-
er Australia arrived from Honolulu to-
day Hawaiian advices contain no
reference to the demand for the recall
of Minister Thurston by Secretary
Gresham. It is not known if the gov-
ernment has received the message.
Martial law was declared off March 18.
A law has been passed to the effect that
persons deported on account of con-
nection with the recent rebellion will
not-be permitted to return at any lu-
j ture time.
Among the passengers on the Au-
stralia was Joaquin Miller, the poet
of the Sierras.
The poet left Honolulu suddenly with
no other baggage than a copy of his
poems. His intended departure was
kept secret as he says ho wax afraid
the oflleials of the government would
put him in prison. Miller is very bit-
ter against the men in control in Ha-
waii. He denounced the treatment ac-
corded the political prisoners as bar-
barous in the extreme and says that
men are dying in prison for want of
air and proper food. He predicts that
a* filibustering expedition will be or-
ganized to go to Honolulu and rescue
the political prisoners. When asked if
he was done with Hawaii, the poet
said:
"I have not begun. I am going to
wait and see who goes down there and
liberate thoso men. Possibly they may
be set at liberty when their captors
get badly scared, for they are awful
cowards. If they do not liberate them.
to the very last and lowest of political
prisoners, and then return the lands
appropriated from the natives and the
queen under the name of crown lands,
I shall go to Japan. I am no stranger
at the Japan court. I thing I shall
only have to idate the ease and promise
political rights to the oppressed 20,-
000 contract slaves of Japan down
there, to get an iron clad.
GOOD THING IN IT.
"There are hundreds of good men
down there kept in the vilest prisons by
men who betrayed a woman and robb-
ed her, and there is plenty of gold and
a kingdom waiting for whoever will
liberate those good men. The soldiers
down there will not light for Dole.
They won't fight to keep the men in
prison. It is not humane. In fafct they
at* all falling out. 1 doubt if Dole has
^ any friends at all who are not under
pay as civil or military officers or in
some way selfishly interested in his
-oligarchy. There has been nothing
nearly so monstrous since the reign of
terror."
Miller makes an appeal for books to
be sent to the political prisoners as
they have nothing to
they have something to divert thoir
minds they may go mad. I
Of the ex-queen. Miller says: "Of all |
those who participated in her arrest
and trial and of all that was said and
done the only Christian was that poor
dusky old woman in the midst of hun-
dreds of cruel men. The only Christian
act or utterance came from her."
He says that Major Seward, Colonel
Ashford, T. W. Walker and other white
traitors are confined in cells only five
by eight feet. Two men are in each < eli
They are allowed an airing two hours
during the day. Theaveraife tempera-
ture In the cells is about SO degrees.
PURELY ON BUSINESS.
** Samuel M. Damon, the Honolulu bank
er, who is also minister of finance in
President Dole's cabinet, was also
among the passengers on the Australia
When seen by a reporter immediately
upon his arrivel hore Mr. Damon de-
clared that lie knew nothing of the re-
ported misunderstanding between Sec-
retary Gresham and Minister Thurs-
ton, or of Gresham's demand for the
recall of Thurston. He declined to dis-
cuss the pr^!ibilities of the situation.
When it was learend that Mr. Damon
was a passenger on the steamer it was
considered probable that his visit here
had some connection with the Thurston
Gresham incident, but he declares that
his is purely a business trip. He will re-
turn-on the next steamer.
Advices received from Honolulu to-
day report an attempt to burn the
American whaling bark Grakhead, Cap-
tain Shorey. The vessel was fired while
*• lying at a wharf in Honolulu. Three
of her sailors. William Bresley, lOKter
j*.Enkowter and William Gehman were
v arrested on a charge of arson. It was
asserted that they fired the whaler to
avoid going to sea on her. They were
Anally released but refused to return
to the whaler, and when the Australia
Failed they were in Jail again. The
bark was pumped protty nearly lull
of water before the Are could be ex-
tinguished.

UKKAT FIKE IN MILWAUKEE.
Most Deatauetlve Fire In Many Y« ars Hanoi
in the Cream City#
Milwaukee, March 27.—Lower Grand
aveneuc was the scene early this morn-
ing of one of the most serious conflagra-
tions in the history of thecity. Some ol
the leading mercantile Institutions
of Milwaukee are In ruins. The flrti
is the most disastrous since the third'
ward conflagration in October 1892, and
the loss will execeed one million dollars
It furnished a magnificent spectacle
for thousands that lined the avenue
and watched it from surrounding build-
ings, There were, however, very luck-
ily, no fatalities. Principal losses are:
Plankington estate buildings occupied
by Landaur & Co., and Tanner & Co.,
and public library building, $2f>0^000.
Landaur & Co., wholeseale dry goods
Co., $400,000; Tanner & Co., furniture,
$100,000: Reliance Storage Co., $r,0.000;
Barling & Wambold. retail clothiers,
$110,000; Columbia Clothing Go., $25,000;
Y. M. C. A. building, $75,000; Other los-
ses $75,000; total $11,600,000. Before 1
o'clock flumes had crossed Fourth
street and were feeding on the Y. M. C.
A. building and twenty minuetes later
the two upper floors of the library block
were a seething mass of fiames. The
fire department under Chief Foley's
direction, had begun Its work to save
the library and three or four cloth-
ing and dry goods stores it contains
as the fury of the blaze spent itself on
the south side of the avenue, after hav-
ing reduced Plankington's estate's
block to ashes. It was only by desper-
ate work thai the library was saved,
and at 2 o'clock Morgan's store had
been saved from all damage except
the upper floor. The library suffered
no more damage than one-eighth its
total eost. Fire brands leaped across
to the north side of the avenue, ruining
the art store of Hoebel & Relnhart, two
or three little saloons and lodging
houses and cheap ramshackle buildings
The public library at the northwest
corner of Grand avenue and Fourth
and Grand avenue was saved by hard
work. At one time it was thought that
nothing could save the structure. In
one of the rooms is a library containing
from son to 1,000 books. Water and
smoke did great damage here. The
Foster building at the southeast cor-
ner of Grand avenue and Fourth street
contained fourteen or lifteen suites all
of which were occupied by families.
Many of the occupants owe their lives
to a clerk In the postofflee. Passing
th" building during the fire in the Tan-
ner building he ran up stairs and
aroused the unsuspecting sleepers.
There was barely time to escape before
the building caught fire. Many of the
women were frantic with terror and it
was with great difficulty they were re-
strained from jumping to the street
through windows and being dashed t<7
death.

Washington, March 27—It w.is said
at the White House tills afternjm that
the telegram from Governor Mori,
of Kansas urging the president to ta! e
active measures at once for the pro-
tection and release of ex-Uni'r 1 States
Consul Waller, reported to have n-c:i
unjustly imprisoned by the J Tench
government in Madagascar und r the
sentence of a court martial, hn I not
yet been received by the president.
The state department has had no con-
firmation of the report from I'silted
States Consul Wetter at Tamat.iv-, nor
from Mr. Campbell, our consul at
Mauritius, which is the neat -<t cash-
point to Madagascar. It is probable
that the governor's message may cause
the state department to cable to one of
these consuls for an account of th ' af-
fair Instead of wattin-r until areport
comes to hand thnogh the mails from
tb's remote point, though it might b-
sufficient in an ordinary case, wouii.
hardly meet the requirements ,'t a case
involving the Imprisonment ot an
American citizen. .
Governor Morrill's course 111 n.ldi
ing himself directly to the pro idem :n
such a matter is said to ■ unusiia.,
but may perhaps be based upon_the
precedents set by the state ticpaitment
in calling upon the governor of '-on'"
iana and the governor of Colorado 1-
eently to protect citizens of
countries within their respective Hat. s.
There sems to be an impr' ision bascii
upon letters alleged to have lieenwrt-
ten by Mr. Waller to friends m this
country as well as to the state depai -
inent renouncing his American citi-
zenship, that he has lost his citr.cnsht.i.
No such letters have been received at
the state department and if tlicr v, us
any such communication in a
letter, it is said that it would earrj .ti-
tle weight. Mr. Waller has the impu-
tation here of being a keen, a] it busi-
ness man. lie was in ex.-elc-nt i "
