ADMIRAL KAUTz REPROvED
Naval Commander at Apia Admon-
ished to Be Careful About
Writing Letters.

Washington, April est has been
felt proper to admonish Admiral
kautz to be more careful either in.
writing such a letter as that published
yesterday from Cincinnati or to keep
his letters from publication. and a
letter of that character@was addressed
to him yesterday. Theoretically a let
ter addressed under the circumstan-
'ces attending the Kautz letter may be
regarded as strictly private, yet prac-
tically the writer must accept the
seuuenc that would follow publi-
cation. In the ease of Chief Justice
Chambers, whose brother made public
a letter criticizing the Germans in
Samoa, the effect will certainly be in
furious to the chief justice. Though
the letter was undoubtedly a private
communication, yet the state depart
ment was bound to take notice of the
fact that its publication had done
much to injure the usefulness Of the
chief Justice and to render his reten-
ton in the Office after the reconstruc-
ton of the government improbable.
Washington. April 27.-The govern
ment has received n cable from ADJ
miral Kautz. dated a. Apia, Samoa,
t3thinst.. acknowledging receipt of in-
structions dated April 2, and saying:
Everything quiet at Apia. ] am not
acting on the aggressive against Ma
stuafan rebels, but nm protecting the
United Stntes consulate. United States

FIGHTING in SAMOA.

Several Bloody Conflicts Between
Native Factions.
Auckland, N. a., April 29.-Advices
just received from Apia, Samoan
islands, dated April is, report that Sc.
we're fighting has taken place between
large bodies of friendly natives and
the rebels.
The casualties, it was thought,
would not exceed twenty, and no Flu.
ropeans We're among the injured.
Particulars Of the fighting in Samoa
received here up to the 18th show n
rebels took place at Vallejo, and that
the latter lost 100 killed and wounded.
Admiral kautz, it is asserted in the
adyices received, fired a blank shot on
April s across the bows of Il German
schooner which was leaving Apia
without reporting.
The friendly natives under the com-
mand of Lieutenant II. a. Guunt, of the
British third class cruiser Porpoise,
were attacked on April 10 from the
French mission station at Falita. The
rebels were eventually routed with the
loss of four men killed. The Tamasese
lines We're extended on April IS to the
Nailele battle field. Mataafa attacked
| the friendlies and Gaunt's brigade
joined in the engagement and fought
well. The rebels had a German flag
| flying from their forts. About 1000
women and children have sought
refuge at the Maluit station of the
London Missionary society.
The rebels are securing the traders
rifles, cartridges and stores and the
traders are fleeing to Apia. Business
is at a standstill and a strong land
force is urgently needed.
Won Buelow, formerly a lieutenant
in the German army and the man who
organized the forces of Mataafa here,
armed with a sword, gun n cart
ridges, proceeded to Savan (SavaiiO
with thirteen boats and 400 rebels, and
the German warship Fake sailed on a
secret mission with Herr Rose. the
German consul. on board. Captain
Leslie C. Stuart, commander OF the
British third class cruiser Tauranga, in
the absence of Admiral Kautz, who
was coaling the Philadelphia at Pago
Page, wrote to the German consul,
urging him to secure Won Buelow,
and the next day the Fake returned
with Won Buelow on board. The in.
habitants are almost unanimous in the
belief that the treaty is a failure, and
there is a strong feeling in favor of
annexation. Prominent American citi-
zens and British subjects say German
annexation is preferable to the triple
concert. The British third class cruiser
Porpoise is still engaged in punitive
cruises

. frequent cases Of nervous pros-
tration or utter collapse OF the nervous
system under which women go all to
pieces" as the saying is, have caused
smneh thought and investigation on the
part OF physicians.
Certain inorganic substances are we'll
known to cause various forms Of ner-
Vous diseases which are readily traced
to the podsons producing them. Fur
Their research Leads to the belief that
alum Is a prevailing cause of so-cal.ad
nervous prostration, for The symptoms
It produces on the nervous system uf-
Ter MS absorption into The blood are very
remarkable indeed. Experiments ply
stoiogtcally made upon animals by Or
MIA Professors Hans Meyer, Paul Seim
n others. show that alum frequently
produces no visible symptoms for many
days after its Introduction into the body.
Ihen follows loss Of appetite and other
atmentary disturbances and finally q
serious prostratioE Of the whole nervou
system. The most prominent physicians
now believe that nervous prostration''
and many affections OF the nerves from
which both men and women suffer are
caused by the continued absorption of
alum into the system.
It Is probable thafh many medical men
are unaware of the extent to which salts
of alutnina may be introduced into the
body, being under the impression that
the use of alum in bread is prohibited.
Alum, however, is still used surrepti-
t1ously TO some extent to whtten bread
and very largely In making cheap kinds
OF baking powder. In ANTILLES where
baking powder is generally used great
care should be exercised to procure only
those brands made from cream of tar
tar. The alum powders may generally
be distinguished by the lower price at
which they are sold.
