CIVIL WAR MAY RESULT
ELECTION OF A KING FOR SAMOA
MAY CAUSE TROUBLE.
Mataafa Coming Back i'm a German Man
of-war-Serious Situation of
Affairs.

San Francisco, Sept. 21.-Speaking Of
Samoan affairs to-day Purser Smith Of
the steamer Alameda said: There is
trouble expected there and the Germans
are bringing back to the stands King
Mataafa in a man-of-war. The English
have a gunboat there-the Ringdove.
The British, American and German con-
suls, the chief justice and the president
Of the municipal council of Apia have
formed themselves into a board of con-
troll. pending the election of a successor
to King Malietoa of the Samoan group.
"Mataafa was deported by the power
some years ago to the Union CTokeiau)
islands to the northwest of Samoa, ow-
ing to his presence in Samoa being a dis.
turbing political element. He was in
duced to surrender himself to the pow
ers on the understanding hat ii was
for the good of his people that he should
go away. The eXiled chief was con-
veyed to the Union group in a German
m~an-of-war, together with several of his
relatives and friends. A recent cable
gram from Europe announced the like
lihood of Mataafa being returned to
Samoa n this will no doubt be don
as the consequence of Malietoa's death.
Mataafa and Malientoa were related to
each other. Mataafa is popular in Sa-
moa and no doubt a large section of the
people would be in favoT of his appoint
! ment as king.
There are several opposing sections
amongst the Samoan natives, one Of the
largest being headed by Tamasese, and
it is said that each party has a nominee
for the kingship.
"In view of these conflicting opinions,
Il will be seen that he position of af-
fairs in Samoa may again become very
serious and that a civil war may as like
~ as not result between the rival par
ties.
During the war of 1SSS-S9 the Ger
man authorities named the chief Ia
masese as king. but the only authority
he exercised was that backed by the
German guns. Tamasese is still in Sa-
moa. living at A'Ana, amongst the dis
affected sections, of which he is the
head.

Chairman Campbell then called the

that a special train would leave fer

OF the war department. AMI 20 the
opposition to alliance with any Euro

follows:
The democrats of Montana, in state con-
v~ention assembled, reaffrm their unwa-
vering belief In the great principles Of
Jeffersonian democracy as expressed i'm
h Chicago platform.
They declare thai the free coinage of
mount issue of American politics to-day.
They enthusiastically and Loyalty accept
and supper the leadership of william j.

appreciation and admiration.
We congratulate our brethren, the peo-
pie of these United States, on the return
of peace, and on the renown achieved by
our navy and army I'm a war waged I'm
the sacred cause of humanity and liberty.
We send greeting to our brave regiment
now in PARKWAY Islands of the Pacific
and commend the patriotism of those
volunteers who gave their services to
the country. though the e~xigencies of the
war never required them to GO to the
front.
We arraign the war department for its
criminal incompetency and ineficiency,
in failing to provide adequate food, shell
ter, raimept and medical supplies and
attention for our brave soldiers, and de-
mand the most rigid and searching in
vestigation of the abuses resulting i'm the
needless suffering and death of SO many
of our patriotic and devoted citizens.
SereneIy confident of the ability of the
United States to maintain its position
among the nations of the earth, we are
opposed to any alliance with any Euro

We condemn the unnecessary issue OF
interest bearing bonds by the government
under pretense of war necessities.
In state affairs the democrats of Mon

ton to wise, fearless and just administers
ton of their several offices in the inter
ests of the masses of the citizens.
We declare that the mineral lands oi
Montana are a priceless heritage of the
people. The act providing for their class.
ification within the railroad grant was a
democratic measure, and IL is the duty OF
the democratic party to see that this
benefcent act is honestly administered
and that the mineral land commissioner
do not, at the behest of any inte rest
return as agricultural lands which prop
erIy should be classified as mineral.

The Murdered Woman Supposed
to Be Emma Gill.
IDENTIFIED BY A MOLE
w. C.. Foster, a Sutton for the Young
Woman's Hand, Arrested and
Charged With the Murder.
Links in the Case.

Bridgeport, Conn, Sept. 2i.-Another
development in the Yellow Mill pond
mystery was made known to-day with
the announcement of the arrest in Hart
ford of w. c. Foster. The police have
reached the conclusion that the young
woman whose dismembered corpse was
found in the pond last week was Emma
Gill, daughter of Harry Gill Of South
ington. Young Foster is accused of
having been an accomplish in the muir
der of Miss Gill.
Miss Gill was "a years of age and had
been employed as a domestic in the
family of j. II. Pratt of Southington.
Her brother described a mole upon her
neck. and a similar mark was found
on the corpse. Her brother told how
his sister started on a vacation. At the
end of the two weeks she returned
home, but announced to Mr.. Pratt that
she was ill and vas going away again.
To her parents she stated that her suit
or, Walter Foster of Hartford, had a
sister living in Stratford and she had
invited her there. Two letters sent by
the parents to the daughter were an
swered, but a third one with directions
on the outside to the postmaster to re-
turn within three days IL not called for
was received to-day unopened.

protocol there is but one peace COM
mission. the one that meets in Paris.
Our relations thus far with the Amer
lean commissioners have been most
friendly and pleasant. Their idea of
transacting business by correspondence
was entirely agreeable to US. Joint ses-
sions Of the commission are necessary
only when there is a dispute on some
point Of the correspondence. IL every
hin continues as tremendously as ii
is now there will be no Joint session
for some time. We are doing all in
our power To facilitate the speedy
evacuation of Cuba. No date has been
settled on as yet so IL is impossible to
say whether the evacuation will be
completed in one month or four. The
American commissioners wish us to try
and settle the case of the Comal n
her cargo of provisions. but after con-
sideration we decided the case was en-
tirely out of our jurisdiction. Our in
structions from Madrid permitted us
to arrange the terms of evacuation,
and nothing more. We did all we could
in the Comal case, however. We laid
the facts before General Blanco.'
General Parade was asked II he had
any personal feelings of hostility or an
imosity against the United States for
making war with Spain.
mo. indeed" he with a
smile, 'in the United States. as in all
countries, there are political parties.
Spain has political parties-too many
of them. The party in power is often
mistaken. Why should II not be? They
are human, you know, Senior Party

this sad war. 1t vas a mistake-noth-

Forged Document.
Paris, Sept. 21.-The trial OF Colonel
Picquart and NJ. Lohlois, a lawyer, on a
charge of revealing documents concern
ing national defense, was to have begun
to-day before the correctional tribunal.
The public prosecutor, however. asked
for an adjournment on the ground that
the prosecution of Picquart on a charge
of forgery and using n forged document
had been ordered by the minister Of
war.
NJ. Laborie. who was counsel for Zola
during the latter's famous trial, indig-
nantly opposed an adjournment, which
he said. was an attempt to hand Pic
quart over into the clutches of the mill
tary authorities.
Picquart then made a statement
which caused a sensation. He said:

port, and the report was called for.
Mr.. Toole was greeted with loud APP
plause as he took the platform. He
said that the deliberations of the COM
mittee a come to naught. They had
made the proposition to the other COM
mittees that the judges of the supreme
court should remain as at present: that
the silver republicans should nominate
a congressman and that it should be
jointly agreed by resolution that the
United States senator should be dem
ocratic.
And on that rock we split" aid Mr..
Toole.
THE silver republicans and populists
would agree with the rest of it. but
would not agree to pass a resolution

delegate from Lewis and Clarke county
proposed three cheers for John r.
Toole, which were given with a win.
After speeches by Mr.. Stiff of Missoula
and Thomas +. Courtney of Silver Bow,
the report was unanimously adopted.

condition in which the convention then
