Apia, Samoa, March "A, via San Fran
cisco, April There have been lively
times in Samoa during the past few Gays.
The United States aud British warships
have shelled Ma aafa's forces repeatedly
and sailors have been landed in Apia to
protect property. Numerous casualties
have resulted on both sides. Admiral
Kautz and the commanders of the British
ships are anxiously awaiting advices
from their governments and in the mean
time the shellIng proceeds daily. When
Admiral Kautz arrived in the Philadel
phia he spent two days in making in
auiries and then calling n meeting OF
all the oonsuls and the senior officers OF
all the warships in the harbor. AS re-
suit of the mesting a proclamation was
issued by tho American admiral declar-
ing that the so called provisional govern
ment under Mataafa can have no legal
status under the Berlin treaty and order
ng Mataafa and his supporters TO quietly
g1 to their homes and respect the laws of
the Berlin treaty. 1t was further ordered
that the people erected from their homes
be returned, and the power of the naval
force it was stated, would he used
against all who disregarded the rights
OF peaceably disposed people. The au-
thority of the chief justice was upheld y
the proclamation. Ihe proclamation was
signed by Admiral kautz.
This proclamation was taken 10 Ma
taafa anu real TO him by Flag Lieutenant
Miller. 1t was received in silence ana no
answer WAS made. Mataafa and his
chiefs quietly left and went to the west
ern portion Of the municipality. The Ger
man consul however, issued a counter
PROCLAMATION in the samoan language
which was distributed among the Mataafa
The proclamation read as follows:
NOTICE TO ALL SAMOANS.
BY tho proclamation Of the admiral of
the United States dated March IL, 1t was
made known that the three consuls of the
signatory powers Of the Berlin treaty, as
we'll as the three commanders of the. men
of war had teen unanimous to reeog
nize the provisional government
composed of Mataafa and the thirteen
chiefs
j therefore, made known to you that
this proclamation Is quite false. l, ths
German consul general, continue to rec.
ognize The provisional government OF Sa-
moa until / have received contrary IN
structions from my government.

Cleveland Leader: New York reports
are again trying to dispose of the
Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling rail-
road. The latest reports are that Blair
e. Co. have purchased controlling in
terest in the road for the Federal Steel
company, to open up a coke territory,
and also to give that company an ore
carrier. The report is interesting, and
the speculation is as timely as any
other, so say the officials of the road,
but they do not accord with the fact
altogether. Blair e CO. have always
owned a large amount of the stock in
the road. Whether 1t amounts to a
controlling interest or not is an open
question.

the point where the fountain is thought
to be hidden. This company expects to
start drilling at an early date.

GOT A SETTLEMENT.
Superintendent POntius Made
Matters Clear to Com
missiOners.

Superintendent j. w. Pontius, of the
workhouse, returned Tuesday night
from Lisbon, where he went to consult
the Columbiana county commissioners
respecting a difference of about $50
caused by several train jumpers sent to
the institution. 1t appears that the
commissioners of that county prohibi-
ted justices Of the peace from sending
train jumpers here for servitude. This
matter was overlooked by the justices,
unintentionally. Naturally the commits
sioners could not understand matters,
and superintendent Pontius went there
to offer an explanation and effect a
settlement. The commissioners paid
the bill promptly upon learning this
state of affairs and no trouble of any
kind was experienced in collecting the
money.
The commissioners of that county will

All the indications are that Repre-

not be chosen speaker of the next
house, as Hanna and Dick seem to
have settled On some one else. Still
Snyder has following and will be able
to land himself in an important posi-.
ton as he and his friends will be in a
position to demand representation. A
special from Columbus says that Mr..
Snyder may be made chairman of the
taxation committee and that he will
be permitted to choose his own COM
mittee. This is an important commit
tee, especially in the light Of the coming
decennial appraisement.
