GERMANY AND SAMOA.

The Declaration of War Conf, med-Na-
 Secretary Whitney's significant Action.
 BERLIN, Feb. 1.-Intelligence has been re ceived from the Samoan Islands, via Auck- land, New Zealand, that the German author- ties, naval and consular, lost no time after the shooting of their soldiers and the massacre of the wounded in entering upon hostilities against Chief Mataafa and his men.
 Forces were landed from the German men- of-war in the harbor of Apa, and they took possession of the town, which was placed un- der martial law. No resistance was offered, Mataafa with his troops having retired into the interior. The only people left in the place were women, children, few old men and the foreign residents The latter were not molested.
 The male natives were then organized into a police force and placed under German officer. The town was strengthened with earthworks, an attack being expected from Mataafa- The German garrison was small, and some of Tamaseses troops were called in to reinforce it.
 The declaration of war against Mataafa was made by the German authorities on the spot without waiting for orders from their government, but there Is reason to believe that they acted under previous instructions providing for the contingency of native outbreak.
 They protest that they do not seelS,,to conquer the island; their purpose is to protect German residents and punish the Sanoans under. Mataafa for the inhuman outrages they have committed They propose to proceed in strict accordance with the law of nations, and they will have the full support of the German gov ernment.

 LONDON, Feb. 1.-The declaration of war against Mataafa, the king of Samoa, by the Germans, is fully confirmed by an official an- nouncement from Berlin
 A dispatch just received from Auckland, New Zealand, reports that immediately after war was declared there the German authori- ties suppressed The Samoa Times and an- nounced that all foreign merchant vessels would be searched for contrabands of war.

Concerning Hydrophobia.

Our knowledge concerning the condi- tions under which the poison which creates hydrophobia acts has been some what advanced by the recent experi- ments of M. Galtier, of Paris. According to the experiments the dried virus has it's poisonous properties destroyed in from four to six days. On the other hand, earlier experiments of the same savant show that an animal which has died of rabies may retain tAe poison in that part for n I six " or rr seven ] vueaLs we E "a suiSant that this fact may be of importance in cases where persons have been bitten by animals supposed to be rabid. If the body of the creature has been buried it may be possible to exhume 1t after many days and make experiments which will serve to show whether danger from the wound is to be apprehended. In this way un- founded andeties may be allayed.-Pop- ular Science News.
