Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
APIA, Nov. There is no change In
the Samoan situation, though the natives
are far from quiet. Fear is the sole reason
that prevents new outbreak of one of
their so-called wars. The British man-of-
war Katoomba left here on the 14th of
October for FIJI. but was not replaced
till the 25th of October, when the Rapid
arrived from Fiji.
The German man-of-war Sperber left TO-
day. She Is to call at FakaOfo and take
Mataafa to his new home IN the Marshall
Islands. There is some talk of disarming
the natives, but up to now no steps have
been taken.
The new house of King Malietoa is now
finished. Ii is one-story building, and
though not very pretentious. yet ample for
Samoa requirements.
The MaripOsa arrived on the Sd at 8 p. NJ.

STOLE HIS SON.
James de la MOntanya
Jr.'S Bold Move.
His Wife Accuses Him of Abducting
Their Children and Spiriting
Them Away to France.

Mrs. James de la Montanya Jr. daugh-
ter of Judge Spencer of San Jose, accom-
panied by her mother. reached this city
from San Jose Wednesday in search of
her two children, who she says were
stolen from her by their father about a
week ago. She is now at the Lick House,
and detectives have been set TO work to
discover the Whereabouts of the missing
children.
The father OF the children is James de la
MOntanya Jr., son OF James de la Mon
tanya, wholesale hardware merchant at
314 Jackson street. About six years ago
he married the young and handsome
daughter of Judge Spencer Of San Jose,
and since then the couple have enjoyed
the highest social position both in this city
and in San Jose. Ali went well with the
young couple until about seven months
ago, when the young husband and his sis
ter. Miss Jennie de la Montanya, went
to Paris for treatment for maiady
with which he had been ai!ing for some
time. His wife did not accompany him,
and it was understood among the more
intimate friends of the couple that they
had become estranged and the husbands
trip to Europe amounted virtually to
a separation.
Mrs. de la Montanya Jr. went to live
with her father in San Jose. and 20 pre-.
vent any gossip or scandal she agreed to
allow her two children 10 visit their grand
parents in this city as frequently as de-
sired. The older child is girl of years.
named Lorine; the younger is a boy of
years. named after his father. James
Francis.
The father returned from his European
trip last September. The little girl, Lorine.
was visiting her grandmother at the time.
and her visit was prolonged on one excuse
and another.
A week ago last Sunday the little boy
was taken for walk in the park at San
Jose by his nurse. girl named Theresa
Superville. That was the last seen of the
child by its mother. as neither it u or the
nursegirl returned. A vigorous search was
instituted, and after time 1t was ascer-
tanned that the child had been brought to
this city and in company with the older
child had been put on board an overland
train and taken East by Miss Jennie de
la Montanya.
When these facts had bsen ascertained
Judge Spencer Immediately engaged the
services of the law firm of CARRIER, Boalt 81
Bishop, and told them to spare neither
time nor money IN their attempt to regain
possession Of the children.
Detectives have been set to work, but so
far nothing definite can be learned as to
the whereabouts of the missing children.
1t is supposed, however, that they are now
on a transatlantic steamer on their way
to France. James de la Montanya Jr. has
not been seen for several days. and the
supposition is that he has left the city to
be out of the way of the detectives. His
father refuses to discuss the subject The
mother Of the children is overcome with
grief and anxiety and was confined to her
bed all day; yesterday.
