SAN FRANcIsco, Sept. Associated
Press correspondence from Samoa, per
steamer Mariposa, says: The country
is in state of great unrest. Mataafa
is still at Malic with 800 or 400 men,
and has sent out messengers again to
raise party in his behalf. He has
been told that the United States would
not send any more ships to Samoa.
When the Iroquois arrived he was per-
suaded that she came in his
interest. 1t is generally understood
that the government is only waiting
the arrival of an English war ship to
make a joint demonstration, and to pun
ish the natives who refuse to obey
Maiietoa. Unless some action is taken
without delay, there will be trouble.
The great cause of complaint among
the natives is the way the salary list is
climbing up. Two Swedish gentlemen
came out with the chief justice to act
as clerk of the court and marshal, the
only positions in his gift. AS it turned
out that there was nothing in
these positions, two new places were
created for their chief of police and sec
retary to the chief justice. The people,
however, have confidence in the chief
Justices impartiality. Their only OBJ
lection is that he is very slow.
Much dissatisfaction has been caused
by the acts of the president, Baron
Senft Won Pilsack. He is German and
does his best for the Germans. The cur
rency question is the burning issue of
the hour. A German firm imported a
number of silver marks from Germany
some time ago; and wish to pass them
at gold value in payment of taxes, etc.
Most of these coins are old marks
of Wurtemburg and other small
principalities. The residents object to
them, as they cannot pass them, except
at discount, in America and the colon
les. The president, however, insists
that they be received. The king and
government decided that they would
not take them, but the president again
ordered them to do 30, or Germany
would be angry. They again refused,
but still Pilsack declines to accept their
decision, and the question is still open.

New YORK, Sept. 6.-The Herald this
morning published the following:
VALPARAISO, Chile (via Galveston),
Sept. 5.-The German minister to Chile
and the admiral in command of the
German fleet here, had dispute over
the disposition of the political refugees
on board the German cruiser Sophie.
The minister Dotified the admiral that
he might be required to surrender to
the iunta such refugees. The admiral
bluntly replied that he would do no such
thing unless the emperor or Chancellor
Won Caprivi ordered him to do so. He
then sent dispatch to the emperor,
explaining the situation, and announc-
ing that unless otherwise ordered, the
Sophie would proceed at once to Mol
lendo, Peru, the nearest neutral port,
where the people wanted by the iunta
would be landed. Later in the day, a
reply was received from Berlin, approv-
ing the admiral's action, and the Sophie

gressional officials have taken possession
OF that city and Serena without any dis
turbance, and that order has been main
tanned throughout. The Balmacedlst

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 6.--The news
papers here express confidence that in
view of the entente cordiale between
France and Russia, the powers will hes
itate to protest against Turkeys con-
cession to Russia as regards the Darda-
nelles, for fear of raising stormy ques-
tions regarding Bosnia, Cyprus and
Egypt, while Turkey, strengthened with
the knowledge of the Franco Russian

Meeting With success,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The consul
general of Germany at San Jose, Costa
Rica, has made an official report to his
government in which he says There
is no doubt that the extraordinary en-
deavors which the American industrial
world, backed by the government, is
is making to increase trade with the
Spanish-American countries, is meeting
with success. The difference in the
price, if any, is more than compensated
for by the attractive and handy get-up
of American goods.

PEORIA, ILL.,, Sept. 6.-Last Sunday
two aeronauts met with serious acci-
dents while making parachute leaps.
One fell in lake and the other along
live electric wires. These accidents
did not deter pretty Miss Kie-
fer, sister of one of the injured
men, from making an ascension today,
but she will probably pay for her fool
ishness with her life. She made the
ascent all right but her parachute failed
to work, and she alighted in the lake.
rbe big parachute settled over her and
held her down. Before the woman
could be taken out she was unconscious.
The physicians hope to restore her to
life.

SCoTTDALE, Jan. 27.-Decisiye steps
were taken by the United Mine Workers
to-day toward ascertalning the feelings OF
the coke operators in regard to the forma-
tion of a new wage agreement for the en-
suing wear. That the operators will reject
a demand for an advance is shown BY their
every move. Most of the coke plants will
be operated for six days this week, which
is something unusual since the present de-
preston set in. The object seems TO be to
stock the consumers with coke, so that the
operators will be able to stand several months
strike. The following notice was mailed to-day
10 every coke operator in the Connellsvllle re-
gion by Secretary Parker:
In accordance with a resolution of Districts 4,
n T. A. IS5 United Mine Workers of America,
in convention assembled, you arehereby notl-
fed that If you desire conference with the

the same on or before February 2 1891. We
are further commanded to state that if no Set

erations will be suspended until such settle

is that the committee will be otherwise en-
