WASHINGTON, Feb. THE letter re-
ceived by the German minister to the
court OF st. James is i'd ntical with the
one received by the German minister
here. A translation of the closing por-
ton of the letter is as follows:
In cOnse,i iuence of this, we ha been
transplanted from territory Of media
torial negotiations, by which the impe-
rial consul n Apia was trying to recon
cile the contending parties, and for
which he had sought the co operation of
his English and American colleagues
into state of war with the assailants.
To our regret we shall carry on the con-
test which has been forced upon us by
Mataafa and his followers, with utmost
consideration for English and American
interests. Our military measures have
in view only the punishment of the MUIR
derers of German soldiers and the pro-
lection OF countrymen and their proper
ty. AS thcy, on their ,rt. are at war
with Tamassee, our IL u,erference will
necessarily assume the character of as
sistance to Tamasse. In the endeavor
for the just punishment Of the murder
GUS crime, we hope for the co operation
of the treaty powers in Samoa in friend
ship with us, and we ask the govern ment
of the Tn ted States to be good enough
to furnish consuls and commanders of
its ships of war in Samoa with suitable
instructions and our armed forces there
are instruc ed to avoid and to prevent all
injury to neutral commerce and u. D.
erty, and to adopt measures Of reprisal
and destruc ion against the follow ers Of
the pa ty which initiated tie contest
against our troops by the murderous at
tack. We shall, of course, abide by the
agreement with America and England
with respect to Samoa, and pay due 1e-
gard. under all the circumstances to the
right of those powers as established by
the treaty.

The Police Find Proofs That 1t Was an
Inside job, and That They Are Not
Responsible.
A singular safe robbery is being investi-
gated by the police. Mr.. Charles II. Muir
ray, wealthy and well known citizen,
has his Office in the building No. 43 Mont
gomery street. There is safe in the
office, in which the papers and a few
articles of jewelry were kept. The jaDftor
is ex-Street Commissioner John Nolan,
who has been In Mr.. Murray's service for
years, and has been O reliable, attentive
man.
Nolan has an invalid wife and daugh-
ter. The latter assists him in cleaning the
building. She discovered yesterday morn
ing that the office of Mr.. Murray had been
visited, and the safe had been
rifed. A step-ladder taken from
the lodge room on the same floor
was against the transom. The floor was
strewn with papers dragged from the
safe A diamond bracelet was lying with
the papers Mr.. Murray was called from
Larchmont, where he is stopping.
1t looked as if the thief had used the
ladder, clambered through the transam
and forced the safe. Chief Murphy was
called and he personally made an investi-
cation. The safe showed no marks of
having been worked 1t had been either
left open or was opened by the comb ina
tion.
The dust on the sill of the transom had
not been disturbed. The thief had not
entered by way of the ladder The door
was closed and kept locked. Only Mr..
Murray and the janitor's folks were sup
posed to have keys. The object of the
visit of the intruders was money, as every
sealed envelope had been broken and de-
stIoyed.
The intruder or intruders secured a
pair of diamond earrings, two gold
watches, q diamond scarf pin and several
antique coins.
These We're all there was of value in

was overlooked by the thief

Some of the members of the Third Dis

They were mainly and only of the part OF

The members who are favorable to the

purpose of the gathering was to bounce
Herbert, the secretary, who threw up his
position when the resolution committing
the club to the New Committee was
passed. The New Committee element in
the club was so dead against Herbert, be-
cause of his action then. that it wouldn't
do him the honor of permitting him to re-
sign, and resolution of expulsion was
rushed through.
Noelke, the president of the New Com
mittee branch of the club was asked in
cidently about Herbert's charge that the
letter published in THE JERSEY CITY
NEWS announcing the detection of the
club, had been written by Noelke. The
New Committee Club laughed the sug-
gestion to scorn. He said that Herbert
had himself written the letter, and when
threatened with the loss of prospective
job on the police force by the old COM
mitteemen, had made denial of its
authorship

THREE LIVES in PERIL.
"Hud" Clark's Exciting Experience
on Barnegat Bay.


"Hud'' Clark, well known resident of
this city, and son Of William Clark, the
millionaire banker, is at Barnegat Inlet
with his family. A day or two ago, with
his two boys and party of friends, he
went fishing on the bay. A swell struck
the sailboat and as she 'fkeeled' Mr..
Clark's youngest son was pitched into the
water.
The older boy grabbed him as he went
over the gunwales, and the weight of the
overheard boy pulled the other, too, into
the water The elder of the boys could
SWIM, but it was evident to those in the
boat that he could not buffet the waves
successfully with his drowning brother in
his keeping, and Mr.. Clark peeled off and
plunged in after them. With the aid of
his older son, Mr. Clark kept the younger
afloat and called to those ip the sail boat
to go to his aid. The boat took a sudden
turn as it approached them and whisked
off beyond their reach.
Headed again for them it took another
tack when it was almost within arms
length, and there seemed danger of all
of them drowning. Another attempt was
made to reach them, when some one on
board had the presence of mind to heave
a heavy rope to them.
With its aid Mr.. Clark and his two sons
were finally got into the boat but not till
almost exhausted and the younger was in
to roll him over barrel to resuscitate
