United States Will Stand By the
Treaty.
LACK OF INFORMATION
MOTIVES OF CHIEF JUSTICE NOT
UNDERSTOOD.
Believed That He Turned Mataafa
Down On Account of Fraud In the
Election-German Government
Denies That Its Consul Committed
Any Offense-Warship Orders.

| Washington, Jan. 20.-The state de-
partment is moving with due delibera-
ton, yet with firmness, respecting the
adjustment of conditions in Samoa,
and is directing all of its efforts to the
use of lawful and regular means to
settle the succession at Apia. In fact
it was its insistence upon the COM
| pliance of all the parties TO the
tripartite treaty with the terms of that
document so long as it stood unde-
nounced and unamended that has
made its position so strong legally at
this juncture.
There is still a lack of official reports
upon the details of the stirring events
at Apia. A brief statement of these
events has reached the department
through the United States dispatch
agent at San Francisco. but so far as
can be gathered it is not yet known
just why Chief Justice Chambers de-
cided that Mataafa, the German candi-
date for the succession to the throne
of Samoa, was ineligible. 1t is sus-
pected here that the decision was
based on the use of improper influences
by outside, but interested parties in
the election of the king. That, if estab-
lished, would be sufficient TO disqualify
Mataafa under the strict terms of the
treaty, which expressly provides for
an untrammeled choice by the natives,
according to their own established
customs. The United States govern
ment must adhere to the terms of the
treaty so long as it stands, this being
a duty imposed upon the government
by the document itself.
So it is to be presumed, in the
absence of an official statement, that
the United States consul general at
Apia, and perhaps also to Ambassador
White at Berlin, are to be governed
by this understanding in any presenta-
ton of the case that it may be neces-
Sary to make.
The navy departments orders to
the Philadelphia did not go out to Adj
miral Kautz until today. Then they
were in the shape of instructions to
take on full supply of coal and make
ready for cruise to Samoa. There
was not an explicit order to start, but
simply to make ready. If the admiral,
as reported in the press dispatches,
finds that his ships bottom is so foul
through her cruise in the southern
waters as to be unfit for the voyage
to Samoa, he probably will be,-author-
lied to use divers to clean the hull, for
the department has decided that the
ship should not be sent to the Mare
Island navy yard to be fitted out.
There will be about five days avail
able in all probability before the
Philadelphia can clear, and the de-
partment will be able to order Chief
Engineer Bates from the Texas. to
take the place of Engineer N1cAllister
of the Philadelphia Engineer Bates
was ordered to leave Havana last night
for New Orleans, whence he will pro-
coed by rail to San Diego.

GEN. CARPENTER CALLED down
WAS RUNNING THINGS TO SUIT
HIMSELF.
Gave the Cuban Province of Puerto
Principe a General Turning Over
While Still Under Spanish Rule.

Havana, Jan 2O.-The criticism that
the military administration in the
several provinces lacks uniformity and
that each governor acts Independently
of the central authority is said here
to be caused largely by the position OF
affairs in the province OF Puerto
Principe. 1t is claimed that when
General Carpenter entered that prov
ince in November he began governing
without reference to the evacuation
agreement and the continuance OF
Spanish sovereignty to Jan l. 1t is
asserted that he made a clean sweep
of the provincial officials, RENTED
some taxes and collected others, and
he is understood to have used the
revenues OF December for the purposes
of the local administration. II is said
that he acted briskIy and GecisiVely,
being compelled. no doubt, 10 take
the initiative because in the interior
there is no telegraph system and the
mails are two weeks apart II now
takes two days to get messages from
Havana to General Carpenter 81 by
cable 10 Santa Cruz del Sur, and
thence over land, on horseback, sixty
miles.
Major General Brooke has gently
called General Carpenters attention TO
the fact that taxes cannot be RENTED
in the province of Puerto Principe un-
less the same thing is done in all the
provinces, and that he is not entitled
to use the revenues Of the province
unless or acquisitions which have been
approved at Havana, and that changes
in officials must be made for cause
and after incompetence has been
shown
\ telegraph line from Santa Cruz del
Sur to Puerto Principe is being rapidly
built and viii be completed in a few
6a-s.
The Spanish bank of Havana was
requested to pay coin for S65-000 OF its
notes, backed by the government, but
the bank refused, saying the Spanish
government alone could make this
payment. A legal protest was then
made against the banks action The
S6,0000 600 guarantee deposited in this
bank was Withdrawn by the govern
ment to Spain under the administra-
ton of Captain General Blanco.
Or. Ybarua has returned from the
province of AatanZas, where he found
in the country several smallpox cases
and vaccinated q thousand people.
Hannis Taylor. the former United
States minister at Madrid, arrived here
yesterday.
Four batteries of the First Maine
regiment which had disembarked from
the transport OLDHAM, re-embarked to-
day because they aid not know where
to go. General Brooke sent word to
Major Newcomb that he had no
orders and referred him to Major Cen
eral Lee. No reply had been received
from General Lee at nightfau and it is
rumored the batteries may be returned
to- the United States and mustered
out.

ATTITUDE OF GERMANY.
Not Convinced That German Consul
Is to Blame.


Berlin, Jan 2O.-The foreign office
informs the correspondent of the As
ISOLATED Press that the official reports
received from Samoa by the govern
ment tally with those received by the
Associated Press. In any event, Ger
many viii not support any possible If
regularity inconsistent with the
treaty, but the foreign office officials
point out that it is not vet clear t5-t
the German consul at Apia has been
guilty of any irregularities of that ma
ture. On the contrary, the foreign Of
flee insists it still remains to be eX-
planned why Mataafa's election was de-
clared invalid, as he was admittedly
elected by an overwhelming majority.
The foreign office admits that Ger
many has long been dissatisfied with
the condominium, which in it's nature
is provisional, though unfortunately
other powers, especially the Washing
ton government, have thought other
wise"
The foreign officials say that the
captain Of the German warship Fake,
at Apia, does not attach much i'm
pOrtance 20 the recent incidents; and
hence the government does not intend
to send additional warships to Samoa
unless the other powers do
