ENGLAND IS DLSTRUSTEDi
AUSTRALIAN PAPERS DON'T LIKE
HER SAMOAN ATTITUDE.

An Auckland Paper Charges that
We're Battered to Bismarck in the
Hope of Currying Favor with Him
in the Great European intrigue.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 17.--Both the
Auckland and Sydney newspapers give
great prominence to the Samoan news
which detailed the action of the Germans
at Apia. Their editorial comments are
strong and bitter and reveal the great dis
satisfaction that has been increasing in the
colonies over their treatment by the i'm
perial government.
SPIRITED EDITORIAL.
The Auckland Herald of Feb 81 has the
following leader:
Though to many of the people of the
mother country the Samoan einbrogio may
have seemed but a little thing, it has GER
tainly moved the people of these colonies
deeply, and the effects wnicl it has pro-
duced on the public mind will not speedily
pass away. 1t has uubappily presented the
British policy IN very unattractive ligat,
probably more so than has anything which
has occurred in the colonial relations in
modern times. 1t has produced feeling of
doubt as to the inge iiousness and disinter
estedness of the dealings of the imperial
government with the intereS of the colo
MES.
AN ANGLO-GERMAN DEAL.
at is quite apparent to us nov, or at
least il is universally believed that England
basely baruered Samoa and other Pacific
interests for the favor of Prince Bismarck,
IS that might be made to bear on the
British interests in the great Europea l
intrigue, aud the duplicity with which
America was treated by the two European
conspirators has come out in all the darker
color from the firm action taken by our
great relations of the Anglo-SaxOn race.
The American nation is compelling Ger
many to recede from the position VIII. ca
she had so insolently taken IN virtue of
unholy right.
AN OUTRAGE ON JUSTICE.
The abdication of King Malietoa was an
outrage on justice aud humanity, but the
violent ton of the German forces toward
Mataafa, the mitigation to bloodshed, the
encouragement of pitiles5 mutual slaughter
of these unhappy islanders, to say
nothing of their insolent demeanor
toward British and American citizens
melted as we now know these things were
by the disgTaceful completely of the En-.
glish government in Ger nauy's high
handed doings, have produced an indignant
sense that has dealt a sharp blow to our
feelings of loyalty and affection to the
British COVER Iment.
ADMIRATION FOR THE REPUBLIC.
"On the other hand the open spirited con-
duct of the United States has stood out in
startling contrast, and we venture to assert
that tho action of that power in compelling
Germany to let go heT grip on
Samoa has excited a feeling of
enthusiastic admiration for the great
republic, warmer and more pronounced
than ever existed among us before. The
incident seemed to many like an abrog CATION
by England of her leadership of Anglo
Saxon civilization in these seas, and hand
ing over the right to the kindred nation,
equally our kith and kin. Of the United

Mai. Gen. Eaird's Comments on the
Soldiers Home Movement.
New York, March 17-Brevet Major
General A. Baird has written letter from
Washington to Secretary Oliver Downing,
Of the New York citizens committee, en-
gagged in raising funds for the National
Confederate Home at Austin. Tex. Gen.
Baird opens In this way: "The fact that a
portion of our cOuntrymen are in diA
tress and need pecuniary assistance is q
sufficient appeal TO the generous and kind
hearted. II is not necessary, nor is it mag
unanimous, TO inquire how they came to
want. have strongly indorsei Gen. Sher;
manf proposition to open homes provided
for our SCARED and honored veterans to
those disabled in different cases"
Gen. Baird coucludes: while distin-
guished leaders Of the rebellion hold high
positions in the government and are well
coined in all our social gatherings, it seems
TO me strained seDtimentality to pronounce
the one-legged confederate an unfit compan-
lou for our battle-uruised but much re-
spected old soldiers"

These Breezy March Days.
New YORK. March rs "A whim Of the
hour is pussy willow lunches, which are
not without certain poetry of suggestion
as harbingers of the coming spring. One
was given to Mrs. Cleveland few days
ago, at which all the coloring of the dining
room reminded one Of the soft, dove-col-
ored catkins The hostess wore q p ire
gray gown girdled with white ribbons. The
china was striped with pale graysh bands
Down the middle of the table ran a strip of
gray satin embroidered in silver, at each
corner Of which was stauette, in silver,
after the Russian fashion, about six inches
in hight, of dryad, n wood nymph, Or
Diana hunting. Great bowls Of silver and
crystal stood on the satin filled with pussy
willow b anches, frightened by masses Of
snowdrops and ionduils. Three pussy will
low twigs lay by the plate OF each guest tied
with broad silver ribbon.
Tne wife of the ex-President looks older
than on her earlier visits 10 New York, but
her smile is as ready and her manner as un-
affectedly cheerful. Her complexion is
somewhat salow as il late hours or strong

seeming disappointed or unhappy woman.

else, even of the athletic sOrt--ins tancing
the fact that sac is taking of having a tri-
