Cleveland learned that the treaty did not have the support of Hawaiians
During the first term of President Grover Cleveland, the U.S. and the Kingdom of Hawai'i entered into a free trade agreement, and the Kingdom allowed the U.S. to mine coal there and to set up a naval station at Pearl Harbor. However, during the four years between Cleveland's first and second terms, a group of European-Hawaiian and American-Hawaiian businessmen overthrew Hawai'i's monarchy and seized power, allegedly with the unauthorized help of the U.S. Marines as requested by U.S. Minister (Ambassador) to Hawai'i John Stevens. The rebel government sent to the U.S. a treaty of annexation, which President Benjamin Harrison supported and forwarded to the Senate for approval. After retaking office in March of 1893, Pres. Cleveland withdrew the treaty from the Senate and sent the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Relations former chairman James Blount on a secret mission to ascertain and report on the situation in Hawai'i. After Blount reported that the people of Hawai'i were against the government takeover and U.S. annexation, Pres. Cleveland supported the reinstatement of Queen Lili'uokalani. Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, chaired by John Tyler Morgan, held public hearings on the matter then released a report that contradicted Blount's report. With Pres. Cleveland's political party supporting the Morgan Report and Queen Lili'uokalani's refusal to Cleveland's terms for support, which was amnesty for the rebel government, Pres. Cleveland withdrew his support for Queen Lili'uokalani.
During the year of the 100th anniversary of Queen Lili'uokalani's overthrow, a committee of native Hawaiians studied the Blount Report and the Morgan Report and commented, "The truth lies somewhere between the two reports."
