Liliuokalani had no choice but to surrender her throne. She made a plea to the U.S. government for reinstatement, & a representative of President Grover Cleveland found the overthrow to be illegal. Dole, however, refused to accept the decision. The queen withdrew to her residence, Washington Place, & urged her supporters to be patient and avoid bloodshed. A fierce uprising was firmly squelched in January 1895, & although she denied playing a role in the attempted takeover, Liliuokalani was arrested and taken to a second-floor room at Iolani Palace. It would serve as her jail cell for nearly a year. During her confinement, the queen wrote one of Hawaii's most beloved songs, "Aloha Oe". Liliuokalani was pardoned in October 1896. In her remaining years, the deposed queen fought for the restoration of the Hawaiian kingdom. She died in 1917 at age 79.

The Kingdom of Hawaii was purported to have been annexed to the United States of America on January 17th 1898 by an act of the American Congress, known as the Newlands Resolution.
