San Frawcleeo, April ll.-The Steamer Alatnaki, from Sytlney via Honolulu, gmv«l at 8 o’clock this ntornlug The correspondent of tho unltctl Pros*, iper Hto imer AHtihhLi, xyr.tns under dajte of April 4 from Hon- oiulu: “On ithe arrival of the steamer China 0? t ? e . » lively *en*ution was created toy uewnpjper dlspaUilaw au- Bouncing tort Secretary Gresham had lasltructed (Minister Wills to dentaud the recall <,f Minister -Thurstton.

Foreimt Min.eter Hattcto has received front liiura;oa hlutself no tofonnultion of now or special trouble nrisiug botiween ureshnm tirnl himself. Mr. -Hatch has received • a tele- grant front Mr. Thurston announcing his intention to arrive In Honolulu on April lt, by the steamer Arawa. This intention seems to have been suddenlv formed at tb* last moment. TSmrston had written to his mother by mail not to be disappointed by press dispatches, and that he should stay In Washing ton. Mr. Hatch and his colleagues nat urally imitate Thurston’s reported reti cence. The condition of strained rela tions with the Washington administra tion has existed for two years past and lias become chronic. In the dis charge of his duty, the Hawaiian min ister has repeatedly been compelled to perform acts which were extremely dlB- tasterui to air. Greaiiatn. The- only sur prise Is that he has been able to con tinue so long at hls post. The opinion In generally expressed by friends of the government that Thurston will probably have no difficul ty In Justifying himself. So far as tan he learned, lt seems probable that this government will not. In such case, make a point of honor In the matter, but will send another inlnlatcXin Mr. Thurston's place. If Mr. Hat *— should go, Mr. Thurston would doubtless take hls place here as minister of foreign aftclrs. Mr. Thurston abandoned a lucrative law practice to serve the government abroad. He would be glad to retire from public life and attend to hls private business, but this Is not likely to he permitted him. United States Minister Willis Is believed to feel some uneasi ness lest this government should re taliate and give hint Ills passports, but It Is considered, highly Improbable that the government wilt discharge Mr. Willis so long as he gives no special cause therefor. A reception to Mr. and Aire. Willis was given on the evening of the 2d Inst., on board the flagship Philadel phia by Admiral Beardslee and the officers of the shin. All the prominent government officials In town were pres ent with the exception of .President Dole, who had gone to Kauai.
