SAMOAN CHIEFS
Meet at Male and Discuss Pc
iitical Differences
Which Interfere with the King
dom's Prosperity.

The Mataafa Party Maintains Silence,
Although Some of Its Chiefs Desire to
Hoist Their Own FIag-Members of the
Municipal Council at LoGgerheads with
Each Other-short of Funds.
-APIA. Samoa, Aug. 19.-A largely at
tended meeting of chiefs has been held
at Male. The Mataafa party still main
tains policy of silence, although some
of the chiefs desire TO hoist their own
flag. The great desire of the party is
that the three treaty powers should
withdraw the chief justice and presi-
dent of the council on the ground that
they are incompetent and too highly
paid.
President Zenft is at loggerheeds with
the Maben, secretary of state, and has
asked King Malietoa TO dismiss him, but
the Samoan government does not &C
quiesce. Zeuft refuses to allow Maben
to inspect the government accounts,
and though the president is required
under treaty to render accounts month
ly, he has not given them to the king
since December last.
The municipal council is unable to dc
any thing in the way OF public works
as its revenue is not enough to pay
salaries. The monthly expenses of the
council are about 81 200, including the
presidents salary of 1870.
