THE SfMO4N ISLAND TROUBLE.
Outlook for n Peaceful Adjustment Be-
licved to be Very NoprfmI.

Washington, April 2.-The opinion is
expressed in official circles here that
the outlook for satisfactory and peace
full final adjustment of Samoan affairs
is decidedly hopeful The statement
was made to-day in a well informed
quarter that it is altogether likely that
the joint high commission, by virtue of
plenary powers vested in its individual
members, will be able to conclude a set
tlement of the Samoan question satis-
factory to all the powers concerned.
The solution of this delicate question,
full of possibilities of serious trouble,
is regarded as triumph of diplomacy
and as furnishing the strongest kind
of evidence of desire of Germany, as
well as of the other two powers, to
maintain the existing amicable rela-
tions, one with the other,

 the Army

London, August 25.-The foreign office this evening issued a Transvaal blue book containing further correspondence between the secretary of state for the colonies, Jo- seph Chamberlain, and the British high commissioner for South Africa, Sir Alfred Milner. The principal dispatches deal with the Transvaars request for arbitration and Mir. Chamberlains suggestion for joint inquiry, which was telegraphed to Sir All fred Miner at Capetown on July S1.
 No information Is given, however, as to the views of the Transvaal government re- garding this proposition
 Sir Alfred Miner transmitted the Trans vaals proposal on June H. recommending it's immediate rejection, as it would raise more questions than it would solve.
 In defending his recommendation, Sir AL fred insisted that a redress of the griev ances of the Uitlanders stood at the head of the programme, and that nothing else could be considered until this point was settled.
 MT. Chamberlain in replying, endorsed Sir Alfred Miners views and reviewed the situation resulting in the treatment to which the Uitlanders are now subjected. His reply concluded with the proposal of joint commission of inquiry.

Tells of Transit of Arms for the Orange
 Free State

Capetown, August 25-In the Cape House of Assembly today, anticipating motion on the subject of Sir John Gordon Sprigg, former premier, W. P. Schreyner, the pres ent premier, volunteered an explanation re- garding the transit though Cape Colony of ammunition and rifles for the Orange Free State.
 Mir. Schreyner contended that except in time of war, the prohibition of such transit would be a breach of the customs conven- ton. He laid upon the table papers con- frming his statement as to the details of the war material so transmitted, and then added that if war should unhappily ensue, he would do his duty as an earnest and loyal subject of the queen.
 Sir John Gordon Sprigg having moved the adjournment of the house, MT. Rose-Innes, former leader of the opposition, asked whether the governor of Cape Colony, Sir Alfred Miner, had requested the govern ment to prohibit the transit.
 MT. Schreyner replied in the negative. After further discussion, in which Sir John Gordon Sprigg dissented from the view that the customs convention prevented the prohibition, the subject was dropped.
