BISMARCK ON SAMOA.

He Declares Germany's Desire Is Only TO
Protect the Interests of Her Subjects in
the Islands, Not to MeddIe with Affairs
-Ex-ConsuI Knappe Severely Censured.
BERLIN, April ia white book regard
ing the Samoan question has been published
under date of April 16 by Prince Bismarck
and Herr Steubel, the present German
Consul at Samoa Herr KnapTe, the
late German Consul at Samoa is
censured for his conduct throughout all
the troubles at the islands. The white
book dwells upon the fact that Knappe's
actions were entirely unauthorized and
without necessity. 1t states that he took
measures on December IL last which re-
suited in deplorable deaths and effected an
undesirable change in the position of plant
ers, and which jeopardized peace
betwe II Germany and America,
while quiesence would have pre-
served situation that at least would
have been tolerable. Prince Bismarck con-
cludes the report by declaring that Ger
many has nothing to do with the internal
affairs of Samoa. The German mission in
Samoa is restricted to protecting German
citizens and enabling them to develop their
commercial interests.
Prince Bismarck has issued an order in
which he defines the responsibilities of
VI va -oAiAl5 WIN ACoISOO W
requests of COnsuls abroad. The Chancellor
directs Commanders to examine for them
selves the legal and political grounds
for such request, unless the Consul
produces special authority from the
German Foreign Office. As reason
for his action, Prince Bismarck refers to
the recent events in Samoa where, he says
an unauthorized request resulted in great
loss of life and in injury TO German inter
ests, and danger was thereby incurred of
Germany becoming embroiled with a friend

ing for the intervention of an armed force
