March 23.-Mr. John L. Waller, for
merly United States consul at Tama-
tave, Island Of Madagascar, has been
tried before a courtmartiAl by the
French military authorities, and bas
been found guilty of having been in
correspondence with the Hovas, and
was sentenced to twenty years impris.,
onment.
A Washington dispatch contains the
following in regard to the matter: On
April20, 1894, Mr.. Waller secured o
concession from the Hovas government
OF the whole Of the southern part OF the
Island OF madagascar, and this conces-
sion was obtained in spite of the re-
pested protests Of the French residents
and the French colony generally. Ac-
cording to the French pioneer colonists.
oil the nationalitie5 engaged in the
India rubber trade considered that their
vested interests had been injured by
the concession to Mr. Waller The lat.
ter did not share in their opinion.
Franco hitherto has claimed a protec.
torate over the island of Madagascar
and Great Britain has recognized it.
But the native government of Madas
gascat repudiates tho French claim to
a protec tore,e, and the government OF
France is now sending to Madagascar a
large expedition intended to subdue the
Hovas. 1t may also be added that the
last two American consuls at Tam ataye
have presented their credentials to the
MalaRasy government thereby causing
some friction between themselves and
the French resident.
The concession granted to Mr.. Waller
ha ,lx,o
as 1t ts in the great rubber distrIct of
Fore Dauphin, on the South coast OF the
island, and the terms under which the
e1'consul obtained 1t, were very much
more reasonable than any previously
granted In Madagascar. Moreover, the
concession Is by far the largest and is
said TO be in every way the most i'm
portant surface concession ever granted
In Madagascar. 1t covers an area of
225 square miles, or more than five
times the area of New York City.
Finally, mail advises from Tamatave
published here on February 80, of the
present year, said that the French were
incensed to the point of violence agains {

sensations caused the United States

Arl Waller is a citizen OF the United
