What Was Last Week Regarded

lean control of Tutila island is con
tirmed and agreed to, while the United
States has, it is understood, signifed its
approval Of the projected arrangements
between Germany and Great Britain.
Regarding the details Of the latter, the
British foreign Office remains mute, ex-
cept to authorize tho statement that
none of the recent surmises Of the Ger
man press have correctly outlined the
plan, which now seems sure of ac-
ceptance. 1t is also emphatically de.
MED that the United States has been
in any way neglected in the negotia-
tons. 1t is pointed out that the United
States, having secured Tutila island,
obtained all she expected or desired.
But though thoroughly satisfied, she
was kept conversant with and ALWAYS
consulted about the negotiations which
proceeded between Germany and Great
Britain. Last week it was believed
that an impasse had been reached, ana
that the diplomats were inclined to fear
that no settlement was attainable in
the near future. The sudden turn in
negotiations and the overcoming Of
the apparently unsurmountable OBJ
stacles created almost as much sur.
prise as qualification. Of course it is
still within the limits of possibility that
another and entirely unexpected con.
tingency may arise during the interim
of the drawing up of the papers and
signing Of them. But, there is every
reason to believe that an official state.

The labor troubles in the Occur

Factors are about to conclude from the
wholesome demand for spirits that the

The domestic demand, together with that
