What the Thuuderer Thinks.

LONDON, June 15.-The Times, com.
menting on the Samoan agreement
says: perhaps it is we'll that Bismarck
has been made to realize that where
American interests are concerned the
American government is very little
affected by many Of those considera'
tions which restrain the action of the
European governments, with whom he
is more accustomed to deal, and with
whom he can for this very reason deal
more easily. The Times intimates that
