SAMOAN REBELS ACTIVE,
Chiefs Communicate Their
Wishes to the Foreign
COnSulS.
They Seek Malietoa's Resignation
and the Abolition of the Title
of King.

AP1A, SAMOA, June 19.-As regards our
political questions the position when l
last wrote you was that the ConsulS OF the
three treaty powers were in consultation
with the commander of H. NJ. S. Rapid as
to enforcing certain processes of the Su-
preme Court of Samoa, which had been re-
sisted by rebel natives in Aana. 1t was de-
cided to take no further steps in the mat
ter, except by order of the Supreme
Court. The Consuls could not recommend
any action by warship and Captain Sir
Henry Ogbie declined to incur any per-
sonaI responsibility in the matter.
1t was generally believed that the writs
of the court could not be enforced by one
warship such as the Rapid. For some
time rebel sympathizers have been meet
ing in great numbers at Lufluf in Atua.
The first session found 5000 natives pres
ent. The most ancient ana disgusting of
their barbaric customs were INDUCED in
during the sessions of three days duration.
The performances gone through demon
strate that the rebels propose to resist the
authorities at Mulinem at any cost.
After the conclusion of the deliberations
copies of document containing the eX-
pressions CT all the chiefs assembled were
sent to the Samoan Government and to
each of the three Consuls.
The document is in the form of a warn
ing and addressed, Take Notice, All
People," : 1t says peace exists. All per-
sons who fought. against them can come
and go without fear of molestation; that
no arrests for past political offenSeS will be
permitted. Another document is addressed
to the chiefs and foreign representatives,
stating that they ask for Malicious resig-
nation and that the title of King be abol-
ished.
1t must be remembered that during the
existence of the: Berlin treaty the kingship
in Samoa is an established fact, beyond the
LOCAL power to ahrogate except by a force
Of arms. -.
H. ]: Moors, an. American who attended
the meeting at Lutilufi says the natives
are we'll armed and have an abundance of
ammunition, On Tuesday last q number
of delegates. called on the three Consuls
and were told their Communication had
been forwarded to the different Govern
ments; that nothing could be done until
replies had been received. In the mean
time the convention must adjourn and the
natives disperse.
Malietoa has sent word that he will meet
force with force. The matter is becoming
critical. Sir J. B. Thurston, British High
Commi ssioner, has warned all British sub
iects not to supply in any manner arms or
ammunition to natives under penalty of
six months Imprisonment and f1OO fine.
For any British subject to take part in any
rebellieus movement two years and $1,000
fine is the penalty. The German Consul
has issued a similar proclamation, but the
United States Consul has not been heard
from on the subject.
Just as L am closing this letter twenty
eight large boats, full of rebels, are off the

ROBBED A SHOESTORE.
Burglars Disappointed at Not Getting
Away With Their
Booty.

The shoestore of Frank Parker, 405 Hayes
street, Was entered by burglars on Tuesday
night, who thoroughly ransacked the
premises. Parker had closed the store at
8 o'clock, but had occasion to return about
II o'clock. He was surprised to lind every.
thing in state of disorder. Boxes OF
shoes had been removed from the shelves
and were scattered around on the floor.
The cash-drawer had been forced open and
the contents stolen.
Parker ran outside and blew police
whistle. Deputy Sheriff Martin Hughes
happened to be within a few doors OF the
store and he went to see what was the
matter. He and Parker examined the
store and found that twenty-four boxes Of
shoes had been stolen from the shelves.
They searched the yard and discovered five
of the boxes hidden under the stairs in the
rear. further search led to the discovery
of the other nineteen boxes which had
been packed in sacks and concealed in Lin
den avenue, in the rear.
Two policemen had by this time arrived
upon the scene and careful search was
made for the burglars but without success.
1t is supposed they had intended to return
for the stolen packages at a later hour
when the streets were deserted. The burg
larry was reported at police headquarters
yesterday morning.

OARSMEN AND ATHLETES,
The Local Men Leave for
Stockton for the Fourth
of July.
Crowds Go Away by Boat and Train
to Participate in Flower
City Events.

The crews Of the different boating clubs
from here which will take part in the
Stockton regatta to-day left last evening
on board the river steamer Mary Garrett.
On board were the junior and senior
crews of the Ariel, South End and Pho
neer rowing clubs. The single scullers
among the professionals were Jack Dunn
ply, Charley Long, William Growney and
H Peterson. The scullers on board who
will repre- sent the amateur class are j. Nc
Causland and Henry Witkoff of the Ariels,
Frank Duplissea of the South Ends and j..
Caughlin and Len Hawsler OF the Dol
phins. =:
The reason assigned by the captain Of
the latter club for not having a better rep
resentation was because of the tearing
down of the old clubhouseand the build
ing of a new house on Selbys wharf.
There was not a vacant berth on the
steamer when it left this. City, and its
upper deck was occupied by oarsmen and
athletes. who will contest in the tield-day
games and regatta of to-day.
The senior crew of the South End Club,
who won the championship of the coast at
the recent regatta held over the Long
Bridge course, was doubtful as to the
amount of sleep it would enjoy in case the
water route to Stockton was selected. At
any rate the boys concluded that the rail-
road was the better way of reaching their
destination, and with that object in view
they left on the P. NJ. train.
From all accounts the Stockton crew
have been training like beavers for weeks
past in the hope of lowering the colors of
the cham pions, and if no accident occurs
to mar the pleasure of the race, the con-
test between Stockton's able oarsmen and
the flower of the South End Club should
be we'll worth going many miles to see.
