less during the ambush. The natives
thought him dead and cut off his right
ear. The shock brought him to, and
he escaped.
Captain Hufnagel. the German man
ager, has been arrested for completely
in the fight of April ii. He is held on
board the German ship Fake, under
pledge from her commander to return
him to Captain Stuart on demand.
Hufanagel Fought With Natives.
Af1idavits have been made by men
engaged in the Vailele fight that a
white man was with the rebels, dl-
recting them throughout the engage
ment. Hufnagel answers the descrip-
tion of this man exactly. He was seen
at the plantation and gave misleading
Information to the troops as they
passed his house on The way out, but
when they returned he was not to be
seen.
Deserters from Mataafa's side say
that on a previous occasion Hufnagel
had a narrow escape from being shot
while encouraging the natives.
Won Bulow, a Prussian cavalry Of
ficer, has been deported to Sydney by
the German commander. He was seen
on April u in command of a body of
500 men on the way to reinforce Ma
taafa.
A large body of friendly natives has
been armed and put under command
of Lieutenant Guant of the British
navy. He has been drilling them in
cessantly and has brought them into a
fine state of discipline. They promise
to make good fighters.
Stevenson's Home Shelled.
On April Il, VaiIima, the home Of
Robert Louis Stevenson, was shelIed by
=
by rebels, who were firing on the al
lied forces. The house is utterly
ruined. From that time to now the
rebels have kept away from Apia, al
though they were within an hours
march from town. There is no sign of
surrender. Defiance and DEATH" is
the rebel cry.
On March % Admiral Kautz, in or
der to give the Mataafans a chance
to submit without more bloodshed, is
sued the following proclamation:
1T is hereby made known to all Sa-
means that Malietoa Tanumafili has
been installed as king of Samoa by
the combined naval forces of Great
Britain and America, on March %. His
flag was saluted by the warships of
these powers. Now. all Samoans of
the so-called Mataafa section are in
formed that if they acknowledge, by
sending deputations at once from each
district, their lawful king, Malietoa
Tanumafili. who holds his position by
the great treaty and decision of the
chief justice under it. they will be
allowed to return to their homes and
resume their usual avocation without
molestation. The very strongest meas
ures will be taken at once against all
rebels who do not comply with this
proclamation"
No answer was sent to this. although
the rebels considered it at full meet
ing. 1t was stated that they were at
first willing to obey, but German in
fluence persuaded them to hang out for
news from Germany. which was sure
to arrive by the next mail. Instead of
obeying, the rebels threw up barricades
and prepared for active war.

Washington, May 5.-The postoffice
department today made public the let
ter of Edward Atkinson of Boston, on
which the action of the department in
selzing his pamphlets was based. Many
letters asking information about the
SUBJECT have reached here, and today
the following statement was given out
Rpy POSTMASTER General Smith:
IN view OF the statement of Mr. Ed
ward Atkinson that he sent his PAM
phlets only to Admiral Dewey, General
Otis, President Schurman and three or
TOUR others. the letter of Mr.. Atkinson
containing his application, will be Of
interest. 1t is as follows:

per OF the enclosed pamphlets on The

department, or may be forwarded in
due course by mail. A list of regiments
is desired, and if there are printed
lists of officers available, they would
SSiNS me d very uSe1ul purpose.
EDWARD ATKINSON
The Pamphlets Were Seized.
No answer was made to this letter
except to send an official copy to the
postmaster at San Francisco to hold
the pamphlets. The spirit and design
OF the pamphlets will be indicated by
rev extracts. In one of them M
Atkinson says:
i will append one question to each
reader: How much increase of taxa
ton are you willing to bear, and how
many of your neighbors' sons are you
ready to sacrifice by fever. malaria and
Venereal diseases, in order to extend
the sovereignty of the United States
over the West Indies and the Philippine
islands?'
Again. after describing what he
calls the hell of war, and its penal
ties, Mr.. Atkinson says:
Lest others should be trapped into
enlistment in the regular army or vol
unteer service in the tropics. it Will
Only be fair and honest on the part of
the recruiting officers to put them in
possession of these facts
Again Mr.. Atkinson says:
Refuse TO Volunteer. He SAYS
" The way has already become plain
for the youth of the land to avoid dis
ease in the tropics. by refusing to
volunteer or enlist in the army or the
navy of the United States.
g The way will be found for the VOL
unteers now held against their will to
get their release from unlawful service
in any other country than their own,
after peace is declared
Mr.. Atkinson not only speaks thus
of and to the soldiers. but encourages
the Filfpinos to insurrection, when he
says:
They have the power to enter into
international relations. and they may
yet be recognized, and rightly recog-
nized, by other powers. -
