I'VE have not received a dispatch from

sidered to be violation of the Samoa act
II Admiral Kautz stated In bis proclama
tion that all the three consuls had ex-
pressed Willingness to annul the pro-
visional government, Kautz stated an UNI
truth. and Herr Rose could not be blamed
for issuing counter proclamation.
However, the German government is
thus far insufilcienty informed as to

viii not assume at the outset that Herr
Rose is right throughout. In any case, we
