German Papers Protest.

BERLIN, Feb. 4-The Cologne Gazette
says: Germany must restore her authority
in Samoa, which was grievously shaken by
the events of December, and must make an
example of the misdeeds. The military side
of the procedure is determined upon, and is
unalterable 1t can only occasion complica-
ton with America if her congress desires to
stay the hand of Germany by officially sup
porting Mataafa On the other hand, the
diplomatic side Of the question does not bear
a complexion of warfare. In the nineteenth
century no battle will be fought over Samoa.
Germany proposals for a settlement of the
difficulty, now on their way to Washington,
will convince Americans of Germany's en-
peavor to deal justly with all duly estab-
lished interests"
The London Standards Berlin correspon-
dent says: Germany does not intend, at
least, to annex Samoa, but she is resolved
that America shall not do so. At the same
time, hear that Germany may occupy any
place in the islands in order to restore order,

lea, between the United States and Samoa,
on the 18th day of January, 1873"
This document is duly signed and wit
messed. A letter from Mr.. Coward to As
sistant Secretary Rives, dated January 81,
1887, says that the four persons signing this
instrument were appointed as commissioners
on behalf of the Samoan authorities, in view
Of the fact that they were individual owners
Of property along the shore of the harbor Of
Pago-Pago. Continuing, the letter says:
"In my opinion, this instrument might be
regarded as transferring to the United States
the title to the land At the time l was not
authorized or prepared to accept an absolute
title in fee simple, not knowing how far

ceed in the matter For that reason the

LONDON, Feb. 4-TlB Observer, in Wig

that the suggestions of the American senate
to establish naval station in Samoa as
challenge to Germany to annex the islands
are mere empty vaporings
1.-The Americans know" the Observer
says, ''that their financial interests in Samoa
are insignificant, as compared with those of
Germany They have no war ships fit to
cope with the German people, which could,
and probably would blow the American
naval station about the ears of the American
garrison"
