GERMAN AGGRESSION IN SAMOA

1t will be observed from our news
items to-day that German man-of-war
has driven away the King of Samoa and
his Chiefs, and hoisted the German flag,
contrary to the protests of the American
and British Consuls. 1t appears that the
Intervention of these officials restrained
the SamOans from resenting the insult
The German Government denies that it
has annexed the Samoan Islands, and
sets up some excuse for what appears to
be an outrage such as Lord George
Paulet was guilty of in this country. AS
England and the United States are both
interested in Samoa it is not probable
that this action will pass unchallenged.
Indeed, the set of public opinion in New
Zealand and Australia would be too
strong for England to ignore, and it is
certain that the United States, which
has treaty of amity with Samoa, and
recognizes it as an independent power,
viii not tolerate this act of coercion.
Perhaps the action of the German Com
mander will be disclaimed by his official
superiors; but if not, both England and
the United States must hold Germany to
its declaration, pledging itself to respect
the independence and neutrality of

been told by constitutional writers; but
that was before the gearing began to feel
any strain. The friction on the Irish
Department is so great that there is dan
ger of it breaking down, if indeed it has
not already broken down. Earl Carnar-
Won has resigned the Vice Royalty of
Ireland, and there is a doubt whether a
successor will be appointed. For the
first time in seven centuries, therefore,
there would be no recognized representa-
tive Of English sovereignty in Ireland,
and signs of an approaching crisis are
visible. Beyond this, England is at
peace at home and abroad but British
statesmen are too prudent to make the
collection of rent in Ireland an excuse
for sending fire and sword among the
Irish people. Another solution will be
reached, although rumors of very diff
ferent character are afoat. Martial law
will probably be proclaimed, but this
will not be strange, as the greatest
achievements of the Irish agitation have
been gained under martial law.

THE SUGAR MARKET
Firm and quiet, but without Any
Change.

The San Francisco correspondent of the
ADVERTISER has but little news to give us
by this opportunity concerning the sugar
market. The latest quotations ON the 18th
instant ruled the same for Cuban and Ma
Mia raws as on 30th December, the report
of the market firm but quiet" still hold
ing its own. This may to a great extent
be accounted for by the holiday season,
which invariably lessons any large or i'm
portant business transactions. We give the
following interesting reports:
NEW YORK MARKET.
The market has ruled quiet and steady,
the business transacted having been of
moderate proportions and values being
without quotable change. The daily melt
ings of the refineries continue exception
ally light even for this season of the year,
and accordingly their requirements of raw
material are comparatively small, and
chiefly supplied from direct importations
there has been but little occasion to pur-
chase spot stock. The occasional sales
do not show any quotable change in values,
holders maintaining n firm front and OBJ
tanning full prices for their sales. The gen.
eraI situation, therefore, has developed no
new feature either with respect to present
or future supplies. The distribution of the
product of the refneries is still influenced
by the Louisiana crop, which is being freely
marketed, and hence production is re-
stricted within the narrowest limits. Re
finers' stock, January 1, 1886, in New York
was 8, 744 tons, against 3,728 same time last
year, and refiners' stock in Boston was
5,459 January 1, 1886, against IL ,485 same
time last year. Total stock in four ports
in all hands, January 1, 1886, was y ,531
tons against 1O4, 1893 same time last year.
POINTS FROM EUROPE.
Genoa advices say that in consequence of
the considerable exports of Russian sugar
to Italy, facilitated by the Russian export
bounties, the Italian markets have been
overstocked. The Italian refineries, the
number of which has been increased to
seven, are producing about 3,OOO,O 900 cwt.
of refined sugar, while the home consump-
ton of Italy does not much exceed half
this quantity. The Italian refiners, there
fore, are endeavOring to obtain concessions
in order to be able to compete with the
German, Austrian and French exporters
in the London market. Representations
are being made to the Italian Government
with the object of obtaining small export
premium in addition to a drawback. Ell
forts are also being made to obtain facilities
for the importation of raw sugar, and es-
peciaIly for a reduction of the railway tar
ifs for raw beet sugar imported from Aus
tria The Italian railway authorities have,
it is stated, practically conceded a reduc-
ton for minimum quantity of 90, 900 tons
to be imported during 1886, and it is under
stood that the Austrian railway authorities
are disposed to make similar |

OUR SUPPLEMENT.

Shortly after the arrival of the Mararoa
we distributed full-page supplement
containing the leading items of news
from all parts Of the world. Subscribers
who live outside the limit of city distri-
button, will receive copies of the supple
ment to-day. In the body of our paper
we print additional news items, making
the record complete up to date of sailing
of the steamer. Subscribers on the
other islands received the news supple
ment with the weekly ADVERTISER pub
lished yesterday. We are satisfied that
our friends and the public at large APP
preciate our enterprise in thus furnishing
them with summary of all the news at
the earliest possible moment.

concessions in order 10 encourage the
trade. The authorities of the Austrian
State railways are inclined to do this in
order to meet the new Russian competition,
which is alarming the Bohemian and Mo
ravian sugar manufacturers. 1t is now
being pointed out in Germany also that
unless the German sugar producers are 70
lose the italian market entirely, similar re-
auctions must be made on the Gothard
route 1t appears probable, therefore, that
the general effect of the Russian sugar
bounties will be cheapening of sugar in
Italy, and stimulation of the Italian re-
filming industry, with the creation of an
italian export trade IN sugar.

Owing to the inability to secure an ac-
count of the stocks in the hands of refiners
and importers at the close of 1885, it is inn
possible to give the amount distributed for
consumption in the Pacific States and Ter
ritories. Some idea of the quantity may
be gathered from similar deliveries in 1884,
which amounted to 162, Gal 400 lbs. The
shipments of refined grades overland by
rail for 1885 were 1855, 40 lbs, against
SO, 615, $50 lbs in 1884 The exports of re-
fined to foreign markets last year were
3,743, 700 lbs, against 2,434 900 in 1884 and
3,736, 900 lbs in 1888. The estimated prod
uct of beet sugar in California last year
was ,343 100 lbs against 3 134 300 lbs in 1884
and l, 2OO,OOO lbs in 1888. The beet sugary
at Alvarado STANDARD Sugar Company
did not push its business very much last
year, owing to the low prices, but is now
arranging for an enlarged product this
year and later on.

THE NEWS.

The news by the s'Mararoa'' is not
very exciting. Peace between Servia
and Bulgaria, which was patched up by
the Intervention of the Great Powers,
continues, but war will be declared the
moment that Austria or Russia is ready
for action. No one supposes for mo-
ment that either of the Balkan powers
took the step they did on their own re-
sponsibility, and no one supposes that
they suspended hostilities of their own
accord. Prince Alexander of Bulgaria is
the creature of Russia, and did as ne was
bid. King Milan of Servia, on the other
hand, is much more of free agent, and
he is at the head of people who have
made heroic sacrifices to secure their in
dependence; but even he is dependent
upon the forbearance of his powerful
neighbors, and Austria, for the time be-
ing, has most interest in sustaining him.
The King of Servia therefore acted as
the agent of Austria, and backed by the
Austrian Government, he is treating the
Bulgarian demand for indemnity with
contempt This may end in bringing
sthe Great Powers into collision.
Outside this Balkan trouble, with its
unknown possibilities, there is really
nothing of interest to write about regard
ing European affairs The Emperor of
Germany has received universal congrat-
ulations ON the twenty-fifth anniversary
of his,aecession to the throne of Prussia,
and the stern old man, whose spirit is
the embodiment of duty as he under
stands it, is deeply touched by the kindly
regard of his own and kindred people.
He has reason to be deeply moved, but
he deserves the homage of mankind as
a man whose sole impulse is to do and to
strike for the right as he knows it. Car
lyle, we think, said of Frederick the
Great that ne was the last of the Kings,
meaning that the individuality of mod
ern rulers had been lost in constitutional
forms, but he did not study the life of
William l., King of Prussia and
Emperor of Germany, or he would have
come to a very different conclusion.
In England, the student of constitu-
tional forms may contemplate ia
leisure the disintegration of Parliament
ary Government. If any institutions in
the world show signs of dry rot to-day
they are the English Parliamentary sys-
tenn. Disguise it as one may, this is the
fact. The British Government is sys-
tenn of well-balanced checks, We have
