Mr. IlalrcVs rsnid and marvel.v.is recovery from a incroskeleton to 'tis normal weight, 270 |k.un Kpnpur* over the action of the United States government in sending ttic Philadelphia to Honolulu. Japan 1 i en; ollicial advices claim tlie : cruiser has lieen sent as a menace ; to the Japanese government and "lis significant in that it foretelh , of annexation of the islands ti the United States. Japanese ollicial newspapers j are full of war talk. The (Jhowt j states that a telegram has beet received by the Japanese authori ''ties to the effect that lCnglatu: it has sent an intimation to tlu JV United States government thai i,' she objects to the intended an nexation by tho latter of tlu Hawaiian Kepublic. The Seka -jNoNifoti says that a series ol 'telegraphic communications art [. i at present missing between tlu 7 United States Legation at Tokic ' and tho United States govern a i x tnent, and is of opinion that lliej relate to the refusal of the - i Hawaiian government to permit | Japanese imnngrasts to land. NO FEAR ENTERTAINED. I Japanese OMicials Relieve That i No Com plications Will Arise. Washington, April 29.?The officials of the Japanese legation in this city express themselves in positive terms as having no fear of international complications between Japan and Hawaii or tho ! Untied States, gowing out of tho differences between the first two countries on the immigration question. They belittle the possi j bility of war over complication* ; that may arise and attributesucli . talk to the jingo newspapers " which arc disposed, they say, tc make groat ado over matters thai can be readily adjusted by diplomacy. Sevoral weeks ago the legation here received information thai the .Japanese cruiser Maniwa had been orderod to Honolulu and probably is there by this time The object of having a war vessel " at Honolulu is, it is asserted, not a sinister one, but simply ar * exercise by the .Japanese govern ment of the right claimed and enjoyed by other countries ol c having naval representation in j the waters of countries where hei - citizens are located, so that in tht event of the necessity amplo pro - tection may be atrorded.
