received here from Samoa, Chief

use Of lawful and regular means to set
tie he succession of Apia.
In fact it was its insistence upon the
compliance of all the parties to the tri-
partite treaty with the terms of that
document so long as it stood unde-
nounCed and unamended that has made
its position so strong legally at this
juncture.
There is still a lack of official reports
upon the details of the stirring events
at Apia. A brief statement of these
events has reached the department
through the United States dispatch
agent at San Francisco, but so far as
can be gathered. it is not yet known
just why Chief Justice Chambers de-
cided that Mataafa, the German cam
didate for the succession of the throne
Of Samoa, was ineligible.
1t is suspected here that the decision
was based upon the use OF improper in
tluences by outside but interested par
ties in the election of the king. That, If
established. would be sufficient to dis
qualify Mataafa under the strict terms
of the treaty, which expressly provides
for an untrammeled choice by the ma
tives according to their WI established
customs.
The United States government must
adhere to the terms of the treaty so
long as 1t stands, this being the duty
imposed upon the government by the
document itself, so it is to be presumed,
in the absence of the official statement.
that the instructions sent to the United
States consul general at Apia, and per-
haps also to Ambassador White, at
Berlin, are t o be governed by this I'M
derstanding in any presentation of the
case that it may be necessary to make.
The navy departments orders to the
Philadelphia did not go nj to Admiral
Kautz until today. Then they were in
the shape of instructions to take on a
full supply of coal. and make ready for
a cruise to Samoa. There was not an
explicit order to start, but simply to
make ready.
If the admiral, as reported in the
press dispatches, finds that his ships
hull is SO foul through her cruise in
the southern waters as to be unfit for
the voyage to Samoa, he probably will
be authorized to use divers to clean the
hull, for the department has decided
that the ship should not be sent to the
Mare island navy yard to be fitted out.
There will be about five days avail
able in all probability. before the Phil
adelphia can clear and the department
will be able to order Chief Engineer
Bates from the Texas to take the place
of Engineer McAllister of the Philadel-
phia. Engineer Bates was ordered to
leave Havana last night for New Or
leans. whence he will proceed by rail to
San Diego.

Al R GRIP

There is no denying the serious fact
that there is a great mount of sick
ness from the grip; hat overworked
men and women now suffer more than
any other time of the year from lassi-
tude, headaches, slight chills and fever
Aand other symptoms of imperfect
health; that people fall sick more
readily now than at any other time
of the year; and hat whenever an
epidemic does appear it invariably
plays havoc with those who are run
down and out of condition.
The utmost caution should be taken
to keep the blood pure and the ner-
vous system in healthy tone.
There is no more excuse for the prev
alent symptoms of s~tagnant, impure
blood in the body than there is for the
barbarism of filthy streets in a city.
The relaxed and sluggish action of
the excretory organs loads the body
with waste material that poisons 1t and
brings on headaches, rheumatic pains,
sleepless nights ana profitless days, due
solely to the circulation in the blood,
or deposit in the tissues, OF these waste
matters which Paine's celery compound
alone will quickly drive out.
When the arms, hips or back feel
the twangs OF acute rheumatism it is
high time to relieve the kidneys and
bladder from the strain that so often
brings on Bright's disease, gravel,
dropsy and complications of diseases
with other organs whose health de-
Ponds upon the purity of the blood.
Prompt use of Paine's celery compound
will save the weakened parts from
yltiulllS W ulsSdct.
In it's peculiar ability to %invigorate
the body, to make new blood and to
regulate the nerves, lies the great value
of Paine's celery compound in all vast
ing diseases and disorders of the kid
neys, liver and stomach.
Paine's celery compound rescues
shaky, enfeebled nerves from prostra-
ton and remove that feeling OF utter
exhaustion that causes so much des-
pondency among so many worried men
and
1t makes flesh, blood and strong
nerves.
Paine's celery compound Is not a
patent medicine! 1t Is not the discov-
cry Of some quack doctor Of whom his
profession never heard; it is not a con-
coction put up by some man who first
invented a name, and then adopted a
preparation for 1t; it is not a secret
, 1899-01-21

But it is, first, the result Of the life
long study of the greatest physician
America has produced, a man whose
reputation was worldwide years be-
fore he had ever arrived at this form
ula which has done SO much good; a
man who has received the highest de-
grees from the best colleges, who was at
the time of his discovery a professor at
Dartmouth and a lecturer in other uni
versities, a scholar, a member of a
family which has made its mark in
every department of public life in
America. 1t is a remedy the formula
of which has been furnished to ply
sicians in good standing always, and
which physicians were prescribing
long before the present manufacturers
put it up for public distribution; it
was discovered by Prof. Edward E.
Phelps, NJ. D., Ii. D., and was first
prescribed with wonderful success by
that eminent group of practitioners who
have made American physicians known
the world over, and of whom he was
then as now, undoubtedly the most ia
nous.
The beste test that can be applied to
Paine's celery compound is to use it.
If one is run down." feels without
energy, lifeless, useless, ~fretful, take
this great remedy, and note the change.
Constipation will no longer give one a
disquieting thought; the appetite will
come back; s~leeplessness and headaches
will be things of the past. This is the
experience of men and women in every
part of the country.
General good health depends upon
tne perfect action or the nervous cur
rents, the vigor OF the circulation and
the quality of the blood.
The history of Paine's celery COM
pound has been made familiar to every
Intelligent household in the land. In
the clearest and most direct manner
conscientious men aud women have
told of their rapid recovery from dis
ease by the use OF the remedy.
Paine's celery compound is unap-
preached by any other remedy for re-
storing the v system when brok-
en- down or impaired from over exer
ton of mind or body.
1T strengthens the digestive powers,
renews the blood and acts in the vital
izing, curative, thorough manner that
makes it the grandest help to suffering
men and women the world of medicine
affords.

SAMOAN TROUBLE
ENGLAND, GERMANY AND THE
UNITED STATES SEND
WARSHIPS.
Diplomatic Negotiations are Under
Way and There is Probability That
England and America Will Unite
to Check Germany-Lack of Tele-
graphic Communication.


washington, Jan. 2O.-The indica-
tons are that Germany will be called
to in the Samoan affair. This
conclusion is drawn from the actions
or the diplomatic officials here today.
a cabinet meeting vas held his after
noon and as a result of 1t, cOmmunica-
tions were exchanged by Secretary Hay
and Ambassador Paunceforte. The
cabinet meeting is said to have taken
the ground that the Berlin treaty had
been violated and that an attempt
should be made to induce the British
government to join this country in rep
reservations to Germany.
1t cannot be learned what the nature
of the British ambassadors reply to
secretary Hay was, though the prevail
ing opinion is that the former has not
yet received from his government the
instruction to join with the United
States in making such representations
to the Berlin government.
1t is not doubted, however, that if
Germany does not soon seek in some
way to conciliate the two governments,
England will concur in the suggestions
of the Washington cabinet.
Berlin, Jan. 20.-It appears to be the
intention of the German government to
adhere strictly to the Berlin treaty.
The authorities will allow their attitude
toward the English and American gov
ernments to turn upon its investiga-
tion into the conduct of the consul at
Apia.
1t is asserted by officials here that
Berlin will 10 make any reply to rep
reservations from the two English
speaking nations until a correct version
of the dispute can be had from Samoa.
If the consul at Apia can show that he
is in the night, the government will up-
hold him. The terms Of the Berlin
treaty must be shown to be violated.
Berlin, Jan. 20.-nhe foreign office
Informs the correspondent of the Asso-
NHN''N NHo' 1H' ohhNii iSpVitS
received from Samoa by the govern
ment tally with reports received from
the Associated Press.
In amy event, Germany will not sup
port amy possible iryegularity G
sistent with the treaty, but the foreign
office officials point out that it is not
yet clear that the German consul at
Apia has been guilty of amy Irregular
tiles of that nature.
On the contrary, the foreign office
insists it still remains to be explained
why Mataafa's election was declared in
valid, as he was admittedly elected by
an overwhelming majority.
The foreign office admits that Ger
many has long been dissatisfied with
the condominium which in its nature
is provisional, though, unfortunately
other powers, especially the Washing
ton government, have thought other
wise"
The foreign Office officials declare
that the captain Of the German war
ship Fake, at Apria, does not attach
