SAN Francisco, March 16.-tApia,
Samoa, March q 1899. per steamship
Zealanda, at San Francisco March 16. }
During the past month the German
authorities both consular and naval
have maintained a state of inactivity.
This condition of affairs dates back to
the arrival of the Steamer Walnut
with dispatches for German con-
sui on January 23rd and is
no doubt the result of the orders
then received. The declaration of a
state of war m the Samoan Islands
seems to have become a dead letter
while the military occupation of Apia,
which the declaration of martial law
would seem to have implied, has no
existence save the maintenance of a
strong guard at the German consulate.
A guard is still kept at the American
and English conSulates. In view of
the facts that there has been no Off
cial retraction of these declarations and
of numerous proclamationS with which
the town was flooded and consequently
no settlement of the matter at issue
the German consul has made repeated
overtures to Maatafa, looking towards
the adjustment of the quarrel and the
conclusion of terms of peace but the
terms proposed always embodied a
strong German interest in the future
administration of affairs to which
Maatafa declares he will under no cir
cumStanceS agree. Negotiation
therefore has been of no avail and
German officials occupy the unenviable
position of men who have deeply com.
promised themselves without seeing
their way clear to retreat consistent
with the preservation of their dignity
