San Francisco, March a1.--The only important
development in the Samoan sensation to-day was
the establishments Of the fact that the American
war-ships failed TO put 20 sea because of the lack
OF coal None Of the American men-cfwar
possesses any large coacarrying eapacity and CON
sequently when they reached Apia they were all
short Of coal So scanty was their stock that they
we're forced to purchase coal in small lots from
dealers at Apia and to pay 81 per ton for 1t. AT
such prices they would use coal only when abso-
lutely necessary, and hence it is reasonable to
suppose that when the storm arose none Of the
ships had coal enough in bunkers to warrant going
to sea in the storm. The Adams, when she re-
turned here from Apia, came under SAIL because
Of the lack Of coal
The Nipsic, Vandslia and Trenton could have
had very little coal left after reaching Apia.
A Crawford, the head Of large commission
house here which has branch at Apia, said to-day
that when he learned by recent mails that deal
ers in Samoa were charging s18 per ton for coal
he sent orders to his agents instrueting them TO
offer as much as 100 tons to Admiral Kimberly at
81 per tor. but he doubted whether the offer had
been accepted. He declared also that the Ger
man ships were as poorly supplied with coal the
American vessels. and that the British ships were
the only ships that carried good supply He
said that full details of the storm must have been
carried to Auckland by the same steamer which
conveyed Admiral Kimberlys dispatch.
The Samoan Times" which has resumed pub
ication, would have all details, and this must
now be at Auckland.
1t will be fortnight before the next steamer
reaches here from Samoa.
