conversation with a high official OF

who said:
"The government has Just received a
detailed report from Samoa which they
think reliable. all the more SO because
the report distributes the blame for the
errors committed there pretty evenly
though sone points remain unex-
planned.
The report says that Mataafa, prior
to his election. was recognized as eligi.
BILE by the three consuls. 1t is true that
Mataafa in lscs was hostile to Germany
but the situation is different now, and
Germany no longer objected to Mataafa.
And why Chief Justice Chambers
annulled Mataafas election we do
not know. II was certainly not
under the terms of the Berlin treaty.
The decision ,s all the more regrettable
because bloodshed s,ight have been
foreseen. No whites property, however.
has been destroyed. and we do not know
why the chief justice sought refuge on
the British warship Porpoise.

supposing that the officials there had
