THE SAMOAN MAIL SERVICE.
The United States Pacific Steamer
Have No show.

SAN Francisco, Cal, March lin an
interview today John ID. Spreckels,
president Of the Oceanic Company, whose
steamers ply between this city and the
Samoan Islands, New Zealand and
Australia, said; 81 do not expect our
steamers TO run TO the Samoan Islands
after the end OF October. The colonies
have taken n decided stand against
maintaining the line any longer. Unless
United States bears ono-half Of the total
cost the service may not cease entirely, be-
cause the North German Lloyd Company
Is trying TO secure II. IL is running steam
crs from Germany TO Sydney and is anx-
ious to extend the service which would be
part of their Samoan policy. The steamers
would stop at Samoa as ours now do, and
the Germans would control this Pacific
trade. Without the aid accorded
TO foreign steamship lines we can
not compete with them and would
not attempt TO do so. The
North German Lloyd receives enormous
subsidies from the German government,
such as we could never hope for. Spreck-
els said they were now stoppingat Tutuila,
the southern island OF the Samoan group,
and dropped the mails there 10 a schooner
who took them TO Apia, the scene Of the
present dispute, seventy miles away.
lie said: "Our steamers do not call
at Apia, the Capital OF Samoa, but could
do 30 II our company was paid extra TO
make the long distance on contract time.
As IL is the United States do not offer any
encouragement 20 have direct connection
with the Capital Of Samoa, and though the
American steamers pass near there and the
Government could receive "A weeks later
intelligence than Is now possible, without
the necessity of having mails pass through
the hands OF foreigners"

The Leconey Murder Case.

The habsas corpus proceedings in the case Of
Chalklsy Leconey, accused Of numbering his
niece, Annie Leconey, before Referee vroom
in Camden county, NJ, yesterday, were
interesting, but devoid Of result. The story Of
the two most important witnesses on the part
OF the state was told, and the main facts on
which the prosecution will build its argument
were divulged.
Garrett Murray, the colored farm hand who
worked for Chalkley Leconey, swore that on
the morning of the murder he went to the
stable, leaving Chalkley Leconey and his niece
in the house. While in the barn yard he heard
q muthed scream from the house, and shortly
afterward he saw Leconey come out to the
pump and wash his hands. When they beth
got on the wagon to 60 to the field Leconey
said: You shut your mouth about this, or I'll
shut it for you; I'll kill you"
William Smith, q neighbor, testified to
Leconey's coming to him on the morning of
the murder and telling him that he had had a
fuss with Annie and feared that he had hurt
her. He said that Leconey told him to see that
Garrett Murray kept his mouth shut and they
would both be rewarded after the funeral
This evidence will in all probability dis
miss the habeas corpus proceedings and form
ally commit Leconey to await the action Of the
grand jury.
