INSJL7I'ED TIER FLAG.
Germans Sack q Samoan village,
ESurn ara American Flag and
Commit Other Outrages.
Twenty-Five German Sailors Killed
and Thirty-two More Wounded
by Mataafa's Soldiers.
Secretary Rayard Says the Reports Are
Exaggerated, Bat The Situation
is Serious.

APIA, Samoa, Jan. 21.-The most Sc
rious state of affairs exists in Samoa.
On the night of Dec. 10 the sailors of the
German men-of-war Adler, Olga and
Eber, attacked Mataafa's soldiers under
direction of the German consul and
Capt. Fritz, the senior naval officer in
the port. AS the result of the encounter
twenty-five German sailors were killed
and thirty-two wounded. Since then
the German war ships have burned
American houses and flags, torn down
the United States flag, seized American
citizens in the neutral waters of Apia
harbor, and taken them prisoners on
board of the German men-of-war, and
fired upon the American flag.
On the night of Dec. IS, a large party
of German sailors numbering one hum
dred and eighty came ashore at Apia
and entered the stores, saloons and native
houses in search Of Americans, English
men and half-castes. They entered the
residence of George Seaman, United
States marshal in Apia. He was not in,
but the sailors found him, his brother
and Morris Snyder, also an American
citizen, further up the street, and start
ing quarrel, stabbed the Americans in
the back. The Scanlans escaped to a
native church where their wounds were
dressed and found not to be fatal. The
German sailors ran through the streets
attacking all persons they met except
Germans, and injured the adherents of
Tamasese, and among the number were
native women and children.
On several other occasions outrages
were committed by the Germans. At
Mataiagatele the Olga bombarded the
town and afterwards burned the village.
Three houses belonging to E. l.. Hamil-
ton, an American, were destroyed, and
an American flag raised on them torn
down and burned.
United States Consul Blackjack has
telegraphed all the facts respecting the
situation here, informing Secretary Bay
ard that the American flag had been
shot and torn down and burned by the
Germans; that American citizens have
been taken prisoners by the Germans,
and states that the lives and property of
American citizens are in great danger.
