When the present council was organ
lied it was the general opinion that AID
Adams, who had served so well for
many years previous as chairman of the
water committee, would be reappointed
chairman by President Crosby. Imagine
the general disgust that took possession
of all concerned when the president Of
the council had his committees read and
Jones, a new and untried man, was put
in charge of the most important commit
tee of the council. Adams friends were
very angry, and for a time it looked
as if there was going to be an open
rupture. In fact, it looked as if Presi-
dent Crosby would be deposed. Aid.
Adams, however, thought better of the
proposed move, and accepted the situa-
ton. His friends acquiesced, believing
that it was for the best interests of all
concerned and now they are not she'd
ding many tears over the charges made
against the department by Aid. Nelson.

they read the G b that they learned
that Lydiard promised his first assistant.
Fred Chaplin, last year that he would not
seek another appointment if he (Chapin)
would give him a second term unop-

ing to get Lydiard to withdraw from
the race for sheriff are in no position TO
give Lydiard third term, and even
though they were, it is difficult to see
how he can go back on his promise tn

"REMEMBER THE MAINE.

Remember the Maine" was given at the
Park opera house last night
There was not very large crowd
present, although the gallery was more
than usually we'll patronized.
The curtain did not rise on the first
act until nearly nine O'Clock, on account
of the delay in the. arrival OF the train
from the west.
The play dealt with the scenes and in
cidents so familiar to all Americans,
leading up to the blowing up of the
Maine in the harbor Of Havana. Tho
characters Of General Fitshugh Lee and
and Captain Sigsbee we're well taken.
OF course the entire play hinged upon
the spectacular effects which is the
strong point in all of Carter's produc-
tions. The blowing up OF the Maine
and the fight in the bay OF Manila were
very excellent and brought forth storms
of cheers.

FEELING N GERMANY.
II is Held That the German Govern
ment Is Biameiess.

BERLIN, April 1.-THE correspondent
here Of the Associated Press has had an
interview with a Foreign Office official.
who is authorized to speak for the Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs, Baron Won Buelow
He said:
I'VE have received several official dis
patches saying that the Tanu people, for
a fortnight past, have been raiding and
pilaging around Apia. destroying, mainly,
German property. They are armed with
weapons furnished by the British.
AMBUSCADE CONFIRMED.
1--WE also received to-day a dispatch
from the commander of the Fake, con-
firmine the ambuscade and the loss OF
the Americans and English, and substan-
TALLY tallying with the dispatches OF the
Associated Press. The ambuscade may
possibly have been on a German planta-
ton. as nearly ell the property around
Apia is German. The government re-
grets extremely the occurrence. for which,
however, ii is in no way TO blame. Such
hostile encounters must naturally be ex-
pected when the Anglo-American action
in GROWING Tanu has made nine-tenths
of the Samoans their enemies II shows
strongly how necessary is the prompt
departure of the commission. with a4e-
quately full instructions. Although the
German commissioner has not yet been
formally approached, he is ready to start
for Samoa within half an hour. II the
three governments clearly define the mode
of operations and the powers OF the com
mission. Why does England needlessly
delay agreeing? 1t is the only way TO
prevent ceaseless bloodshed In Samoa.
Unless the commission start soon, such
encounters may reoccur any day.
GERMANY BLAMELESS.
"Of course. now that fresh blood has
been spilled, the excitement OF the Ameri-
cans and British may increase. But
Germany Is blameless. The same thing
happened 10 our men in 1888. The Sa-
means also cut of the heads OF the Ger
man victims then. This is one OF the
Samoans' pleasant habits. IL Admiral
Kautz had the power to re-establish
