THE Cologne GiIzette's Apia CORE
spondent sends long indictment of the

tives do not conceal their disrespect for
the representatives of the treaty powers,
relating singular incident as an illus
tration. Tamasese invited the officials
and the leading white citizens of Apia
to a wedding feast. All went except
the Germans The American Consul,
Osborne, made speech, thus giving the
affair official recognition. Thereupon
Tamasese's followers danced and sang
impromptu verses, proclaiming Tanla-
sese as King, and announcing the de-
struction of the opposing natives if they
resisted his authority. When the letter
was mailed, September Sth, hundreds of
Tamasese's and Tanu's followers were
gathered at Aria preparing to swear
allegiance before the eyes of the foreign
consuls BY presenting gifts and attesting
homage.
The letter says a New Zealand lawyer
named Gurr is managing the affair.
