the dam Was made success of can
safely say that have been unable to

tale TO dell. so there can be no doubt
that II IL the dam aud the dam only

THE SAMOAN RUMOR
Is the Absorbing Topic in Official
Circles at the Capital.

Speculation Indulged in-Seri-
ous Possibilities-No New
Developments.

WASHINGTON, March 11.-During the
past week there has been talk Of an early
convening of the Fifty-first congress. II
is not unlikely that President Harrison
would call congress together should the
reports from Samoa prove to Lee correct.
The executive departments have not
yet received anything to change their
opinions of yesterday respecting the re-
ported engagement between the German
steamer Olga and the United States
steamer Nipsic at Apia, Samoa. The re-
ports from San Francisco did not create
much excitement at the capital as the
people here who are interested in the
matter are familiar with the fact that.
Geographically speaking, Washington is
nearer than San Francisco to the Samoan
islands.
Editors of all the principal papers di-
rected their correspondents to interview
public officers on the situation, but there
was nothing but negative matter obtain
able, and the situation here cannot change
until some official intelligence is received
at either the state or navy department.
1t is known at the latter department
that four iron clads sailed from Geneva,
Italy, for Samoa some eight or ten days
ago. 1t is expected that these vessels
will require at least sixty days to make
the voyage.
Speaking on Samoan affairs a gentle
man familiar with the country and its
customs said that if the commander of
the Olga fired on the Samoan troops from
the harbor of Apia it could only be done
by firing directly over the neutral terri
tory where the Americans live and have
property; that the commander of the
Nipsic would naturally feel justified, un-
der these circumstances, in protesting.
and in following the protest, if disre-
garded, by action, and that his protest
would say that a shot from the Olga over
the neutral territory, endangering the
lives and property of the Americans,
would be regarded as an act of hostility
toward this country.
Another reason for making the protest
and following it up would be that he had
received news from this country and
knew what public sentiment here was.
He would also know of the approach Of
Admiral Kimberly with reinforcements.
The American naval officers at Apia
have been subjected to many humi1ia-
tons and are likely to welcome the OPP
portunity to revenge themselves. They
are men of spirit, and the fact that the
Olga was twice as big as the Nipsic
would, in the opinion of the gentleman,
be rather an argument for than against
the probability of the report

Sensational Stories Alarm the Town
Where the Fake Originated.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 11.-This city
has been in the throes Of excitement at
report which was posted on the news
paper bulletin boards and published i'm
the papers to the effect that news had
been received from Washington con-
firming the report Of the battle between
the Olga and the Nipsic. It was also
said that the builders of the Charleston
had been ordered to rush work on that
vessel.
1t is stated that the first Breslau cable
gram, which originated the present Nipsic
agitation, was sent from this city. The
story goes that one of the passengers who
came up on the Mariposa brought news
Of an important character commercially
relative to the Samoan troubles to local
German mercantile house. This house,
for the purpose of influencing trade i'm q
certain channel, cabled the story to its
Breslau correspondent with instructions
to give it wide circulation. The present
agitation was the result. This statement
of the case received credence among
downtown merchants when many widely
conflicting reports were in circulation.
LATER: Naval Constructor Fernald says
he has no orders from the secretary of
the navy about the Charleston, but has
received telegram from the chief Of
construction asking when the vessel will
be ready for trade. He replied in a few
weeks, but if necessary in two weeks.
In the latter case here armament could
be mounted in ten days additional Re
gardless of expense, she could be made
ready for actual service in twenty-five
days.
The report that the steamer City of
Pueblo had been chartered by the gov
eminent as dispatch boat between
Samoa and Auckland is denied by her
owners.
