FUTURE OF CHINA

Washington, FeD 17.--In view of
 the course which Germany has been pursuing in regard to the Philippines, and the irritation it has been causing
 Admiral Dewey and the American
 forces at Manila the statement is now
 made that the late unDleasantness in
 Samoa is but another move to emibar- rass the United States. and at the same
 time to weaken the bond of friendship
 beuween this country and Great Brit ain. It las long been the opinion of
 the officials here that when the true informat ti2n reaches the United States
 in regard to the affair at Apia, it will
 be shown that Germany is responsible for the trouble.
 The official reports from United States Consul General Osborn at Apia, arrived in San Francisco by steamer this week, and are now on their way to the state department While the de- pautment is awaiting Mir. OJborn's re- port concerning the outbreak, it would not be far from a correct guess to say 
 they will undoubtedly show that the conduct of Dr. Itafel, president Of the municipal council at Apia, and Herr Rose, the German consul-general at Sa- moa, has been overbearing and ar bit,ary to a degree that is most ex- asperating They have, if half the unofficial reports that haveelately come from Apia are true, violated the Berlin general act, and have placed them selves beyond the pale of excuse. or apology.
 Their object doubltless has been to disgust Great Britain and the United States and annex the islands as part. of German territory. If this has been their desire, they have undoubtedly missed their calculations. It may be true that the imperial authorities a5I Berlin have not sanctioned the extent to which these German officials have gene. but it is not hard to conceive that the German government has known all along what was in conteIn- plation. If the officials in Apia had succeeded in their arbitrary efforts, they would have been called heroes; if they had failed, as they undoubtedly have, they must be made the scape goats. That is German policy, and is only another evidence Of the attitude of that empire toward the United States in other quarters.
 The goveG nment of the United States fully expects the disavowal of the acts of Raffel and Rose, and awaits only official advices confrmative of those already received from unofficial sources stating it's position in no un- or uncertain manner.
 The administration is growing some ! what weary of protestations from the German government Of continued while the officials Of the | foreign office and German navy are l acting in a manner entirely at vari- ance with the protests of the home Now that the peace treaty | is ratified the United States can assert | itself, and unless more discretion is shown, especially in and around the | Philippines, the German government will be called to account for it's action in that quarter, as well as in Samoa.
