Congress That American Inter
ests Must Be Protected.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The pres
ident to-day sent to congress message
accompanied by mass of documents
giving the status of affairs now in
Samoa, and the progress of affairs there.
The correspondence enclosed is that
Dec. 81, 1888. The president says:
The information thus laid before congress
is of much importance, since it has relation
to the preservation of American interests
and the protection of American citizens and
their property i'll a distant locality, and
under unsuitable and unsatisfactory govern
ment. In the midst of the disturbances
which have arisen in Samoa, such powers
have been exercised as seem to be
within executive control under the consti-
tuition and laws. and which appear to accord
with our national policy and condition, to
restore tranquility and secure the safety of
our citizens, through negotiation and agree
ment with Great Britain and Germany which,
with our own government, constitute the
treaty powers interested in Samoan peace and
quiet The attempt has been made TO define
more clearly the part which those
powers shall assume in the govern
ment Of that country, while at the
same time its authority has been insisted
upon. These negotiations were al one time
Interrupted by such action on the part of the
German government as appeared 10 be in
consistent with their futher continuance.
Germany however, still insists, as from the
first, that she has no desire or intention to
overturn the native Samoan government
OF TO
IGNORE OUR TREATY RIGHTS,
and she still invites our government to join
her interposition on this subject, which seems
to lead to such preponderance of German
mower in Samoa as was never contemplated
by u.s. and is inconsistent with every prior
Agreement or understanding; while her re-
cent conduct, as between native warning fac
tions, gives rise to the suspicion that she
Is not content with neutral position.
Acting under the restraints which our con-
gtitution and laws have placed upon the ex-
ecutive power, / have insisted that the
autonomy and independence OF Samoa
should be scrupulously preserved according
to the treaty made with Samoa by the powers
standings with each other have protested
against every act apparently tending in the
opposite direction showing the existence OF
internal disturbances. One OF more vessels
of war have been kept in Samoan waters to
protect American citizens and property.
Those things will abundantly appear from
the correspondence and papers which have
been submitted to the congress. recent

Would-Be Suicide.

Special to the Globe.
LA CROSSE, Jan. 15.-The dispatches
of Sunday contained an item about
young Englishman named Moro, who
attempted to commit suicide at San
Francisco by cutting his throat with
razor. The young man is quite well
known here, as he lived in La Crosse
year four or five years ago, and was
employed in store. His father was
one of the Fairmont colonists and still
owns large amount of property there,
though he returned to England, where
he has good deal of property. Mar
shal Conant. of this city, is his agent,
and in communication with him when-
ever business requires. A few days
ago Mr.. Conant got letter from one OF
the Moro sons. saying his brother Hora-
ito was on his way to the United States
to visit San Francisco, and would stop
and visit Mr.. Conant either going or
coming. So he has been rather ex-
pected here until the telegram above
alluded to gave notice of his being in
San Francisco. The young man is
nephew of the late Sir Moses Monte

number of men are making their living
this winter by catching fish through

loads were shipped on Friday last. 1t
is also said that there are couple OF
men who are fishing in the river with
seines, but no one has been able to de-
