SAMOAN AFFAIRS.
Not Believed to Be Amy Danger of
Further Outbreaks.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-No further
advices have been received at the State
Department from Samoa, and it is be-
lieved that none will be had until the
eastern mail arrives, about five days
time. The Commission is due at Apia
next Wednesday, and the Department.
information is that there is no danger
of further outbreak meanwhile.
There is nothing in the reports to the
department tending to sustain the
statement that the United States Con-
sui, Mr. Osborn, has antagonized the
British and Americans in Apia in OPEN
ly adhering to the German position.
Respecting the reported refusal Of the
Consul to pay the salary of King Tanu
although nothing is known of the de-
tails, the disposition is to approve Of
his action in the matter. 1t is not known
here officially that Mr. Osborn is acting
in such a capacity as President of the
Municipal Council, but in view of the
withdrawal of the German official. Dr.
Rafael, who occupied the position until
recently, it is not improbable that the
duties of the place may have devolved
on the American Consul In view Of
the questionable legality of the provi-
sonal government, it is believed that
Mr. Osborn would scarcely be justified
in assuming the risk of making pay
ments upon the salary of the King
whose title is called into question by
Germany.
