portunity to Secure Full InfOrma-
tton-Samoans VIII Be Consulted.
Washington. March 14.-After numer-
GUS conferences and the exchange Of
notes between Secretary Hay, the Brit
ish ambassador and the German ambas-
,ador, a satisfactory understanding hos
been reached between the three powers
Interested in Samoa as to the conditions
there. This seeks to open new ac-
count In the affairs OF Samoa. and to
obliterate the troubles among officials
which have recently occurred there. To
this end DR.. Wilhelm Solf, who has
been nominated by Germany as presi-
dent of the municipal council at Apia. to
succeed DIR. Raffel, will be recognized by
the British and United States authori-
ties. Already this recognition is as
sured. but it remains for the consuls II,
Apia to carry it into formal effect, In
accordance with the letter Of the treaty
Of Berlin. In order that this may pave
the way to an agreeable and harmonious
adjustment DIR. Solf will go to London
and make himself acquainted with the
authorities there and afterwards come
to Washington and become acquainted
with our officials, 30 that there may be
mutual understandings. DR.. Solf will
reach Washington the latter part Of this
month. He will then proceed to Samoa,
reaching there in May. His assumption
of the municipal presidency. with the al'
proval Of the three powers, is expected TO
smooth out matters among the officials
and 20 long way toward adjusting the
entire matter.
The officials Of the three powers hav.
decided not to attempt settlement Of
the Samoan kingship for the present.
That is left open for adjustment when
each Of the three powers have had .p-
opportunity to secure full Information. In
the meantime the statu quo is to be
maintained. The last advices indicated
that Mataafa was exercising de facto
kingship, while Malietoa was on hoard
the British ship Porpoise and had the
support Of the British and American nu-
thorities. According to the understand
ing reached there will be no move to per-
msnantly establish one or the other Of
these claimants on the throne. The
best wishes of the Samoan people will

feeling among the officials of the three
powers the kingship will be settled by
full conference as soon as all the in
formation on the subject is outlined.
In the conferences leading up to the
present understanding it developed that
DIR. Haffel was recalled from his post
at Samoa last november, but he per-
sisted in staying after his recall. and his
presence appears to have had much to
do in precipitating the trouble. DR.. Solf,
who succeeds him as president, is de-
scribed as an accomplished diplomat,
with service in Calcutta, and more re-
Gently as district judge of the German
colony of Dar-a-Saam, in South Africa.
1t is a post similar to that Of Judge
Chambers in Samoa.

NEW JERSEY GLASS WORKERS.
Now Thoroughly Organized, They VIII
Demand the Union Scale.


Philadelphia. March 1i.-Thc cXccu-
tive bonrd of the Glass Bottle Blowers
association. which has had under c0nsid-
Grafton for the past few days the labor
situation among the non-union glass
blowers of south New Jersey, yesterday
practically concluded its work with the
announcement that the glass blowers of
that section are thoroughly organized,
and will present their demands to the
manufacturers within few days for
payment at the union scale OF wages.
President ID. A. Hayes, of the Bottle
Blowers association, in confirming the
above said: We do not anticipate Il
strike. but the question of such n con
tingency depends entirely upon the rec
ognition by the manufacturers of their
wOrkmen's organization and their accept
ancc of the union scale of wages. In the
event of strike the glass blowers of
south New Jersey will be supported by
the Bottle Blowers association"
At the session of the board il was
stated that the New Jersey workmen
now receive from % to 30 per cent less
wages than elsewhere in the country, and
are further burdcncd to great extent
by the prevalence of company stores.
The adjustment Of the latter, it is said,
will also be demanded.

Volunteers Coming Home From Cuba

Washington. March 14.-The war de.
partment has determined to muster out
and bring home all the volunteers now in
Cuba with the exception of the volun-
teer engineers and immunes. The neces-
sity for immediate action has been
brought to the attention of the war de-
partment on account of the quarantine
regulations against Cuba. which go into
effect about the 1st of May, and which
are especially strict at all southern ports.
When the troops are brought to this
country they must, under the law. be
mustered out in the United States camps.
and they no doubt will be brought to
camps nearest their homes.

Steamer CnstiIian Doomed,

Yarmouth, n. s., March 14.-The mag.
nificent Allan line steamer Castilian,
ashore on Gannett Rock Ledge, will
assuredly be total loss, and the chance
of saving the cargo is now regarded as
slim. Captain Barrett and the first and
second officers still remain on her. All
the rest of the officers and crew are now
in Yarmouth. The steamers which
came up yesterday brought cabin fit
tings and such ware as could be got at.
Most Of the stock was still living, but
are now without attendance, and it is
feared cannot be saved.
