OUTBREAK IN SAMOA.
King Malietoa's Troops Charged with Com
hitting May Atrocities


AUCKLAND. n. H., March 31.-The
steamship Alameda, from Samoa. brings
news of a most serious outbreak in
those islands, which would seem to in
dictate that the United States, Great
Britain and Germany will be called up
on to take prompt action. According
to the reports brought here by the
Alameda, the outbreak was caused by
the action of Henry Ide, the Amer
iean chief justice, who succeeded
Chief Justice Cedercrantz on Sep
TENDER 6, 1892. Chief Justice Ide is
charged with fining and throwing into
Jail the chiefs of the rival factions in
Samoa, and with compelling them to
work on the roads, like convicts of the
lowest order The natives protested
strongly, and mad all kinds of threats,
but the chief justice appears to have
disregarded the menacing attitude as
sumed by the Samoans, and, eventu-
ally, the latter broke out into armed
rebellion. The followers of the native
chiefs disputed the right of the Euro
peans to interfere in what they classed
as purely native affairs, while making
no actual opposition to the state of af-
fairs by which the United States, Great
Britain and Germany, through Chief
Justice Ide, practically maintained a
protectorate over Samoa.
Eventually, however, things assumed
such serious aspect that the chief
justice was compelled to take steps to
disarm the natives, and the latter made
preparations to resist this so-called in
reference with their rights. The
fighting began by the rebels killing
man in the employ of the govern
ment, who was caught near their
camp The reigning sovereign,
King Malietoa, seems to have remained
thoroughly loyal to the chief JUS
tice, for, upon being called upon to do
SO, he promptly sent a strong force of
his Samoan warriors to attack the
rebels Several sharp encounters be-
tween King Malietoa's warriors and
the natives commanded by the rebel
lious chiefs followed. During the en-
gagements thirty men were killed and
about fifty were wounded.
