Apia, July IA.
The long.txpected war has now broken out
bet ween the Mataafa and the Mall,toa forces.
On July s Saturday., about : clock IN the
afternoon. the Government troops under Sc
manutafa, Asi, and Tofae, attacked and
carried the fortified post between Vairele
Aele, held by a force under Leaupepe, thea
son Of Mataafa. The men of Vaimanga and
Faleata under a heavy fusillade scaled the
breastwork and, beating back the Palauh
troops, who held the left face Of the work,
succeeded III turning the position and rolling
ND the whole line of defenders. Out-fanked
and o~ut.numbsrcd. they took to fight. No
pul suit was made, the Vaimaugas not caring
to follow up their advantage. Once within
the precincts, the Government troops gave
no quarter, and Leaupepe himself was
amongst the slain. His head was cut off and,
alon 9 with those Of Z others who had fallen,
was brought triumphantIy into Apla and
thence taken up to King Malietoa's residence
on Mulinnu. The King was graciously pleas
ed to acceo Of the ghastly trophies and express
ed lively satisfaction. Two of the heads
were those Of women, the Vaimauga men
having SWorn to spare neither man, woman,
nor child. The loss on Mataafa's side was
considerable, whilst, that Of the Government
remains unrccorded. The same evening
Mataafa abandoned the town of Male to
destruction, and with all his available forces
took boat for Manono greatly dispirited.
Next day the Government forces came down
and burned the town, devastating and laying
waste the whole district and cutting down the
fruit trees. Fifty-fve large houses have been
burned down in Malie, 36 in Faleuta, and II i'll
Gutu-Ava-Ava. The fight at Aele was short
