of the revolution. On the morning of that
ilay at 9 o'clock the flag of the United
States of America was raised over Alilo
lani Hull. The provisional government,
after mature deliberation on the situation
for some days, reached the conclusion that
the step which has now been tuken was
rendered necessary by the circumstances.

The following proclamation was issued
by the representative of the United States
to the Hawaiian people at the request of
the provisional government of the Hawaiian
Islands:
I hereby, in the name of the United States
of America, assume protection of the Hawaiian
Islands for the protection of the life and prop

purposes specified, but not interfering with the

The Queen's Envoy Talks.
Paul Neuman, a member of the ex queen's
cabinet, is on his way to Washington to lay
the deposed Queen a
Liluokalani's case
before the state de- m |jk
partment. Mr. /
Neuman was not V 0 wSS
inclined to be com- i ' raff
municative. He .fre\
said that owing to
the nature of his
mission he must
reserve his re- *
marks until he """y V 1
reached Washing-
ton. "With Prince O- c. WILTSE. j
David Kawananakoa, a nephew of the late
King Kalakaua, I am bearer of dispatches
to the state department at Washington,"
said Mr. Neuman.
"These dispatches, the nature of which
I cannot disclose, state the queen's posi
tion in a manner that I am sure will have
considerable weight with the president and
secretary of state."
"What is the queen's disposition toward
the United States?" was asked.
"She is as friendly to the United States
as anybody 011 the island. And if the
United States wants to annex Hawaii she
is perfectly willing if it is done properly. -
The statement that the new constitution j
promulgated by the queen, and which pre- I
cipitated the present trouble, would dis
franchise the whites is untrue," continued
the queen's emissary.
Neuman Denies the Statement.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 11.-Paul Neuman
denied the statement published in a San
Francisco paper that ex-Queen Liluokalani
will relinquish all claim on the abrogated
monarchy of Hawaii for a valuable con- 1
sideration from the United States. Mr. 1
Neuman went on to say that he merely
comes to the United States with full power 1
to act for the ex-queen in presenting her case
at Washington, and nothing more. Mr.
Neuman, accompanied by Prince David,
leaves for Washington today at 5 o'clock.

NORVIN GREEN DEAD.
PRESIDENT OF THE WESTERN UNION
TELEGRAPH COMPANY.
A Man 111 Whom Jay Gould Had Confi
dence—On a Military Faculty With
Blaine—Phjsician and Politician —From
a Small Beginning to Affluence.
LOUISVILLE, Feb. 13.—1)r. Norvin Green,
president of the Western Union Telegraph
1 company, died in this city Sunday.
Dr. Norvin Green and his wife three
years ago celebrated their golden wedding
at their handsome home in this city. He
married in 1840, his wife being Miss Martha
English, a daughter of Captain James W.
English, who fought in the battle of Tip
pecanoe and through the war of 1812 un
der General William Henry Harrison. The
English family then lived in Carroll
county, and after the marriage Dr. Green,
who had raised sufficient money to edu
| cate himself by contracting to cut cord
! wood in Hunter's bottom, moved on the
Kentucky side of the river, opposite Madi
! eon, Ind. He had been forced to do labor
I because of the bankruptcy of his father,
who lost his all by becoming surety 011 a
guardian's bond.
For the past 30 years the greatest part of
his time has been spent in New York, but
he has retained his citizenship in this city.
In 1878 he removed his family to New
York, bringing tti-m back in 1885.
I)r. Norvin Green was born in New Al
bany, April 17,1818. While a child his fam
ily removed to this state, so that his early
life was identified with and fashioned by
his residence in Kentucky. His education
was thorough rather than broad—studies
which were suited to the professional life
which he had mapped out. His preferences
were in the direction of solid knowledge
rather than a classic culture. With such
tendencies, and after a thorough course of
study under the able faculty of the medical
department of the University of Louisville,
he graduated in 1840 with honor. He soon
entered upon a successful practice. Not
long afterward he became physician of the
Western Military academy at Drentieu's
Springs, Ky., of which the late .James G.
Blaine was at that time one of the junior
1 instructors.
A Kentucky Politician.
Like almost all young men of spirit in
Kentucky, I)r. Green early connected him
self with the politics of the state. He was
elected for several terms to the Kentucky
legislature and in 1853 was appointed com
missioner of the United States in charge of
the construction of the national building
in Louisville. While enguged in the duties
of his appointment he became one of the
lessees of the United Morse and People's
Telegraph line between Louisville and New
Orleans, and becoming president of these
interests, united in the name of the South
ern Telegraph company, lie became identi
fied with the history of the telegraph.
In 1836, when the American, United
States and Western Union lines were con
solidated, Dr. Green was chosen vice presi
dent, and with the exception of about
three years, during which he accepted the
presidency of the Louisville, Cincinnati and
Lexington Railway company, he retained
that office until January, 1873, when he re
turned to duty as vice president of tho
Western Union Telegraph company. It
was during t his interim of three years that
lie afterward entered the politics of the
state and was waited upon by a delegation
of the legislature and urged to accept the
nomination for United States senator. It
is said that he could have been elected but
for a clerical error iu the count of tho
nominating caucus. Dr. Green waselected
president of the Western Union Telegraph
compuny April 17, 1878.
