fBy telegraph 20 the Dispatch.l
WASHINGTON, November AFTER tho
Navy Department had recovered the pay
masters rates and other valusbles from
the wrecks Of the American men-of-war
lost in the hurricane at Apia, Samoa, the
wrecks themselves were given to the
Samoan Government. The gift has proved
70 be wnite elephant to King Malietoa,
according TO information received here.
There we're no appliances on the islands to
raise tho wrecEage. but after many in
quiries a San Francisco firm was found
which undertook TO recover the parts Of
value, on condition that they were
to be sold in San Francisco and
the proceeds divided equally be-
tween the wreckers and the Samoans.
Months were spent il the work Of TO
covering the wreckage. and it was finally
made ready for shipment to San francesca.
At this point, however, an obstacle was
encountered. The Collector Of Customs
held that the wreckage must pay duty,
and tho Treasury Department has sustain
ed that opinion on the ground that, al
though the wrecks were those Of American
vessels, the deed of gift TO the Samoans
made them foreign and, therefore, dutla-
bio property. As close computation
shows that the duty imposed would ex-
coed the sum which can be realized from
the sale OF the WTeckage, King Malletoa Is
not particularly grateful for the present
made to his people by the United States
