SAMOAN PROTECToRATE.

LONDON, Sept. IA "A dispatch from
Berlin TO The Times says: The Ham,
burger Correspondent publishes the
reply of the German government to
the suggestion made few days ago
by the Vienna Politische Correspond
enz that dual control be established
over the Samoan islands. The reply
states that Germany prefers to abide
by the provisions of the Samoan
treaty and not to raise claims thar are
irreconcilable with that treaty If
Germany agrees to dual control it is
probable that both Great Britain and
the United States would praise the
triple control az much as they now
condemn it. 1t would moreover never
occur to Germany to Offer Great
Britai co-prOtectorate excluding
the United States, which would be
tatamount to an indirect acknowledge
ment that the Australian colonies
have right to be heard in Samoan
affairs.

Referring to the recent cleo ion in
Maine, the gentleman from West Vir-
ginia said that he did not consider the
republican victory as q pronounced
criticism of the Legislation of congress.
According to Mr.. Wilson, some Demo.
Gratis of Maine are temporarily angered
at certain tariff reductions, and es.
pecially the reduction on lumber, but
he added, Names population pre-
vents that state from being an index
of the political events of the United
states. Mr. Wilson decidedly stated
that President Cleveland had nc
thought of again being a candidate
for the p esidency. Messrs. Reed and
Mckinley were, in his opinion, can
