In the U. s. Senate yesterday Mr..
Sherman made speech giving ihe his
tory of our connection with the Samoan
Islands, our requirement of the Bay OF
Paso-Pago for a coaling station, the
present trouble In Samoa and its origin,
and said "rhe first thing to be done
was for the United States to assert its
power in the occupancy and possession
of the Bay of Pago-Pago. That ought
to be done Immediately. 1t did not
need war to protect nations right.
The mere assertion Of those rights, the
due regard for them, the expenditure
of money there, the storing of coal there
the calling of vessels there-ali of these
things were assertions of power far
more influential than protocols and
diplomatic correspondence" He adj
ded: 81 am willing TO vote the sum
named in the amendment (F500, ,000),
aud place it at the discretion of Mr..
Cleveland or Mr.. Harrison, and | have
no doubt that the power thus given, to
send agents there, and to send ships
there, will bring about prompt solu-
tion of this small controversy" Mr..
Dolph obtained the floor, whereupon
the Senate adjourned.

wholly occupied in discussing motion
by Mr.. Sherman to consider the Sa
moan amendments with open doors.
