It is said that Liliuokalani has a new plan for the throne of Hawaii.

On the same day, his sister took the oath to maintain the Constitution, and was proclaimed Queen, under the title of Liliuokalani.

Liliuokalani has therefore decided to resign the throne in favor of her niece, the Princess Kaiulani.

If the plan is successful, the young Queen is to make ample provision for Liliuokalani.

There is a strong party for Kaiulani and another equally strong for Liliuokalani.
