DEATH OF MAlIfTOA
WILL OVERTHROW THE SAMOAN
GOVERNMENT
THE TRIPARTITE AGREEMENT
Will Probably Give Way to Division
Of the Islands Among Nations
Interested
Associated Press Special Wire

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O.-The state de-
parchment has not yet been officially ad-
vised of the reported death of King Malie-
toa Of Samoa, and in all likelihood must
remain in official Ignorance Of the event for
some time to come, owing to the slow
means of communication at the disposal
Of the department. 1t is the general i'm
preston here that the death Of the king
will result in the overthrow of the present
form Of government of the islands, main
tanned as 1t is by the joint action of the
United States, Great Britain and Germany.
Official reports to the state department
show that this government is the most ex-
pensive and unsatisfactory of any in the
world, having regard to the population Of
the Samoan group. In the capital city,
Apia. there is maintained tripartite mu-
nicipal government at vast proportional
expense, while the reports show that thir-
ty-two rate payers are obliged to bear the
entire cost. --..
For years the existing arrangements for
the government of the Samoan group has
been satisfactory to none Of the three gov
ernments, yet 1t has been continued for the
reason that nothing better could be sug-
gested that would be acceptable to the
nations. There are now indications that at
least one Of the parties Is coming around
to what was favorite plan Of settlement
Of the state department, namely, a disrup-
ton OF the present tripartite government
and an absolute division Of the islands Of
the group between the United, States, Great
Britain and Germany. The particular OBJ
ject of our government has been TO retain
possession of a coaling or full naval sta
tion in the islands, 50 as to afford base for
naval operations in the vicinity OF Aus
tralasia, as well as to insure an open port
for our steamers on the long voyage from
San Francisco to Australia. The United
States now holds title to some ground for
la coaling station at Pago Page, on the
Island Of Tutulla. This island Is the least
in size Of any of the group, but II Is large
enough to support naval station, so that
1t has been the plan Of tho state department
TO acquire 1t as a whole in the event of the
dissolution Of the tripartite agreement.
Basing the division on the existing inter-
ests of the three nations, Germany hold
ing the largest interest, would take the
island second in size, possessing the capt.
tai, Apia, while Great Britain would Sc
cure the largest Of the group, but the Sec
ond in commercial Importance. 1t is prob
able that among the first duties falling to
Mr. Hay when he assumes the office Of Sec
rotary Of state will be the consideration
Of some plan to tide over the crisis ex-
pected to follow the death Of the king.

The Wanderers Crew

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O-The facts as
known In the war department in reference
to the departure of Lieutenant Johnston
and his detachment from the camp of Cen
eral Gomez do not correspond with the re-
ports telegraphed from Havana and pub
lshed this evening. When the Wanderer
sailed from the Florida coast on her las,
trip with supplies for Gomez and the Gu
bans, she carried orders to Johnston to re-
move his detachment and return TO the
United States. The orders were not mad
public al the time, because the war was not
over at that time and It was not deemed
prudent TO allow the Spaniards to know
that detachment Of United States SOL
d!ers was about to take ship for the United
States. and because general secrecy was
maintained regarding expeditions to the
Cubans until they were accomplished. It
is stated that Lieutenant Johnston with
drew from the Gomez camp on direct or
ders from the war department.

AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM.

Mrs. W. E. PAXTON, youngstown,

gle to regain health after the birth Of
her little girl: ,,s,
DEAR MRS PINKHAM:--It is with
pleasure that add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may induce
others to avail themselves of your val
liable medicine. Ne
AFTER the birth of my little girl,
three years ago, my health was very
poor. 1 had leucorrhna badly, and Z
terrible bearing-downl pain which
gradually grew worse, until l could do
no work. Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings. Mem
situations were very profuse, appear.
ing every two weeks.
"Itook medicine from . good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good I was
becoming alarmed over my condition,
when read your advertisement in .
paper. l sent at once for bottle OF
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
ponnd, and after taking two-thirds of
the bottle felt so much better that I
send for two more. After using three
bottles felt as strong and well - any
one.
II think 1t is the best medicine for
female weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady ! meet suf-
fering from this trouble"
Maternity is wonderful experience
and many women approach IL wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinkhan ~ freely
offered to all expectant mothers, end
her advice is beyond question the most
valuable to be obtained. II Mrs.. PA1.I
