surrendered, 500 of them who were in
Aana destroyed, as far as the property of
the government supporters were con-
cerned, no less than seven villages, old
men, women and children being driven
for shelter into the bush. On
the return of the royal troops to
Apia from Salwafata, where the
surrender had taken place, a number
of meetings were held to determine the

Gibson, of the Curacao, brought that ship
down and Tamasesse was notified that he
might come on board with his principal

lowing morning the rebel chief with his
eight subordinate chiefs boarded the
Curacao where, after two hours con-
ference with the commanders and King
! Malietoa, terms for peace were arranged

following day the guns were

To BE SETTLED IN THE U. S. COURT.
Mayor Strauss this morning had Mr.. l..
Mex. Bell, agent of the United States
Express Company in this city, before
him charged with conducting the ex-
press business without paying the Ii
cense tax prescribed by the city. 1t
will be remembered that this company
has taken the ground that under the
interstate,commerce laws the city has
DO power to impose tax on them. The
Mayor, upon Mr.. Bell refusing to pay
the tax, fined him So for conducting
business without license, which MIR.
Bell also refused to pay, and he was
given in charge of Captain Webster, OF
the police force, for period of 80 days
for such refusal. The company will in
the meantime have the case removed to
the U. s; Court, in order that that tri-
bunal can settle the matter. The ex
press company was represented by Mr..
John NJ. Johnson and the city by Cor
poration Attorney S. G. Brent.
