ArFAIEs IN SAMOA.

Peace Restored But Trouble Liable to
Break Uut Again.
4. APIA. Samoa, Sept. 5, via San Fran
cisco. Sept. 2s (per the steamer Mari
poaa). Tho situation here is peaceful
but unsettled. There are mutter-
ings which herald the approach
of fresh trouble. With the exception
of Mataafa's deportation, nothing has
been done toward the settlement oi
affairs here. Trade and commerce are
dead and no money is in circulation
except that spent by the sailors on the
warships here.
A powerful chief in the Safata dis
trict has had his name and lands taken
from him because he did not actively
support the king during the late
troubles. The chief threatens to resist
the judgment of the courts by force and
trouble may grow out Of this incident.
On August 23d the English warship
Rapid arrived, and her commander. Sir
Henry Bart, paid an official visit TO the
king, and congratulated him on the
settlement OF the late rebellion.
The Rapid has left for Fiji,
but the British ship Katoomba and
the German vessels Speeber and Bug
zard are still here. An epidemic oi
measles is causing great mortality
among the natives of the Tonga group.
The disease has just started in Samoa.

Repu,licen administration. Il was now
atte6pted to refer such q resolution to
th,committee on finance and il was
lain that the interest of the Democratic
party would be best subserved by its
remaining there. The resolution was
adopted.
The repeal bin was taken up. Hoar
read an editorial from the Peoria, ILL.,,
Journal, relative to the controversy
ae to the part taken by Ernest Seyd OF
England in the legislation of 1873. The
Journal printed what purported to be
quotation from Hooper's speech in the
house to contradict letter of Seyd's
son. In this quotation the words, re-
ferring TO Seyd, "who is now here" are
attributed to Hooper. Hoar had that
part OF Hooper's speech read from the
Congressional Record in which the words
sswho is now here" did not appear.
ssTheee words" said Hoar, s'are de-
1iberate, audacious, unscrupulous, in
famous forgery"
Cullom Of illinois said he knew the
editor of the Peoria Journal, MIR. Barnes,
and while he was aetonished at the mis-
quotation, be was sure Barnes was not
personally responsible for the forgery IN
the sense of having committed or been
cognizant OF it.
Teller also knew Barnes and felt sure
he would be guilty of no improper con-
duct in connection with the statement.
The debate continued more than an
hour, then PETER addressed the senate. He
read the presidents letter to Governor
Northen of Georgia and said that 1t did
not dissipate the confusion in the public
mind as to the presidents real opinion
on monetary questions. He might be a
monometalist; he might be bimetal-
list, but there was nothing to show in
the letter what kind of metallist he
was.

than decrease. Sugar planters Who
