THE SITUATION AT SAMOA

San FRANCISCO, July 2S-Chial
Justice w. T. Chambers, Of samoa, ar
rived here today on the steamer Moana.
accompanied by his family He is on a
four months leave of absence, but sav;,
That his business i'll the United States
is of such a nature that he will proba-
bly, not return to Apa.
IN an interview, the Chief Justice
said:
-All is now quiet in Samoa, but can
not answer for the future. Both Ma
taafa and Malietoa affect to be salts
ned with the present arrangement
which nbolishcs the office of king and
vests the responsibility of government
in the consuls Of the three powers. l
feel sure Malicloa is sincere in this.
Though fairly elected, and after accept
ing the kingship. he never had ;lmbi-
tons in that direction.
''Mataafa is ambitious. For many
wears he has thrsted for power, and
will not be 50 easily satisfied. AT the
same time, he is d man of exceptional
ability. is shrewd and l have never
thought the interests of the natives
would especially suffer in his hands.
Yes my decision has been sustained
by the commission and it has published
the tact III a proclamation.
with respect to the future. / can say
little. In its work the commission has
endeavored to eliminate from the orig
lnal arrangement all of the features
that have appeared faulty or weak.
Those sections have simply been strick
en- out leaving nothing in their places.
What will rob the whole document Of
proper effectiveness is the tripartita
treaty under which it will have to op-
crate. am sure no government in Sa-
moa will succeed under such an ar
rangemcnt. The sooner the Powers see
this and formulate some correction. the
better for all concerned
Judge Chambers said he had finished
up all OF the cases to come before the
court this summer. The commission Is
empowered to appoint a chief Justice
al interim to act i'm case anything
arises before a permanent appointment
is made. Up to the time Justice Cham
hers left the commission had not de-
cided who the new man would be.

Significant Comparisons.

Anniversary dates give the curious
reader an opportunity to compare and
reflect upon the world changes that ac-
cur between the periods they mark
sunday was the anniversary of the
declaration Of the second war against
Great Britain Monday was the thir-
ty-ffth anniversary of the naval bat
tie between the l<earsarge and Alaba-
ma The two events were half cen.
tury apart, yet during that half cen
tury the bwo nations had lost little of
their anmOslty for each other. The
war of 1912 grew out of our denial of
England's rights of searching Ameri-
can merchantmen. The sinking of the
Alabama was the elimination of a
conspiracy on the part of Englishmen
to aid the COnfederacy, and American
sentiment against England, which had
abted little since the close of the war
of 1912, was inflamed anew by the AL
abamas career. Today it Is gratifying
to note that the half-century+old ami
moslties have softened into what is in
effect, II not in name, a close moral al
lance between the two nations.
Another curious contrast, which
shows the progress of the world, is
that not far from the spot where 81
years ago Sunday was fought the bat
tie of Waterloo. with an aggregate loss
OF 29,90S, conference OF representa-

rather than by arms.
Such comparisons go far toward con-
vinelng even the cynic that the world is
moving toward broader humanity

The Call for Artificial Limbs.

The only wounded soldier of the late
war who has reached New York and
been supplied with an artificial leg
was member of the Astor Battery
During the Civil War 10000 men were
deprived of limbs, and in the recent
war only 80, half of whom met with
their losses either in camp or on war
ships not in action.
The manufacture of artificial limbs
has been developed rapidly of late
One firm alone in this city has on its
Dooks the names of 10000 persons who
nave been or are to be supplied with
artificial limbs.
The proprietor of one of the largest
manufactures in This city said recent
ly: Wars have very little effect on
our business. The railroads are the
greatest destroyers of life and limb,
not excepting disease. l find that 1OO,-
900 persons are killed or maimed year
alone, being principally employees, a
very small percentage being passeng-
ers, Up to this time the manufacture
of artificial limbs has been considered
a local industry, but so great a degree
of perfection has been attained that
New York manufacturers are shipping
to al parts of the world.
Recent improvements are the rubber
hand and foot. The ductile fingers
are made of Norway iron, the most
malleable of metals, which enables the
person wearing the hand to have 1T
easily assume any position. Tine i'm
proved foot has a spring mattress EN-
bodied in the rubber which gives it
greater elasticity, durability and nat
w-al action than those with artlculated
joiuts used formerly.-New York Eve
