SAID KAUTz WAS INSTRUCTED.
1t Is Reported That He VIII Restore
Tanus in Samoa.


Honolulu, March 1, via San Francisco,
March 9-Coneerning the Samoan situa-
ton a startling report was given out by
an officer of the cruiser Philadelphia 10
a friend here just prior to the sailing of
the flagship for Apia.
According to the officers Admiral Kautz
is instructed to uphold all Of the recent
decisions of Chief Justice Chambers re-
lating TO the election of a klng in Samoa
and matters growing out of 1t. He is to
cooperate at once with the American and
British consuls and declare Malietoa Ia
nus the rightful and legal king.
Malietoa will be placed in authority IN
der the protection of American and Brit
ish marines. Mataafa, who now has mill
tary ascendancy, will be called upon to
surrender. Should he refuse to do so Ad-
miral Kautz is instructed to proceed by
force if necessary, to establish the au-
thority of the duly elected King. Malietoa

1t is believed there will be a struggle.
Metaafa is brave, He thinks he has the
Endorsement of and will be supported by
Germany. II is not believed that Admiral
Kautz wiz attempt to follow him farther
than his present stronghold, some six
miles from Apia, in which case our sailors
would not be endangered except from
bushwhackers. But Mataafa himself may
be the aggressor.

until the rodent was dislodged. In the
meantime the whole neighborhood had been
aroused by the outcries of the victim, and
some evil disposed gossips fancled a full

enemy unto death, for the feminine

or more particularly. the color of her
stockings, as the principal cause of the
rats attack, seem to be the one most gem
orally accepted here.
1t Is supposed that the rat, like the male
bovine, Is infamed to savage rage at the
sight of red. The wound inflicted was not
dangerous, although the skin was broken
and the stocking torn to the extent of an
inch. The shock TO the young ladies'
nerves can be better imagined than de-
scribed, and when last heard from in
Florida, there we're no indications OF blood
poisoning. In the estimation of her
friends. the young lady is a heroine, and
the brave lieutenant, too, comes In for a

ture, and an Eastertide engagement is
among the possibilities of the future In

TALMAGE RESIGNS PASTORATE.
Will Devote His Attention to Liter
airy Pursuits.


Washington March 9-Rev. DR.. T. De-
Witt Talmage, who, for nearly four years,
has been pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of this city. to-day sent a letter
to the session of that church, rendering
his resignation. The explanation made in
the letter is as follows:
''The increasing demands made upon me
by religious journalism, and the continu-
Gus calls for more general work in the
cities, have of late years caused frequent
Interruptions of my pastoral work 1t is
not right that this condition of affairs
should further continue.
Beside that. it is desirable that I have
more opportunity TO meet face to face in
religious assemblage those in this COUNTRY
and other countries to whom 1 have
through kindness of the printing press,
been permitted TO preach week by week
and without the exception of a week. for
about thirty years. Therefore, though
very reluctantly, l have concluded, after
serving nearly four years in the pastoral
relation, TO send this letter of resigna-
ton.
II is his intention to continue his resi-
dence in this city. He will devote most
of his time to literary pursuits

Chicago, March 9.-Fifty people narrow

to a Halstead street electric car at North
Halstead street bridge
Approaching the bridge at rapid speed
the motorman failed to notice that the
bridge was open. When within a few feet

put on the brakes, at the same time en-

In spite of his efforts the front part Of
the car ran down upon the abutments of
the bridge and hung there
One foot further and it would have
plunged into the river, thirty feet below
and as it was crowded with passenger, the
loss of life would probably have been
large.
The motoTman thinking that the car
was doomed, warned the passengers AID
then jumped into the river. The tipping
OF the car in the abutment, accompanied
by the motormans warning caused a
panic among the passengers, and they
n ade a rush for the doors, during whicn
four were injured
The motorman, after jumping into the
river, managed to clutch some piles and
keep his head above water until he was
