The Charge is Renewed That Dissatis- faction is Being Spread Among Natives on the Island-War
 Vessels on the Scene

New York, October "A special from Washington says:
 Some apprehension is felt in official cir cles over the condition of affairs prevailing in Samoa.
 'The state department is without com plete advices from Consul Osborne regard ing the situation, but sufficient is known to make the authorities understand that the natives are again plotting.
 "It is believed, however, that there will be return to the fighting which occurred last April unless there has been a heavy importation of arms which is expressly forbidden by the provisions of the Berlin treaty.
 Tt will be recalled that when the Badger returned from Samoa she brought in her hold 1,5O0 rifles belonging to the natives. These rifles are now in the armory at Mare Island, Cal, awaiting the disposition of Great Britain, Germany and the United States.
 "Au three nations are represented by men-of-war in Samoan waters. The United States has the auxiliary cruiser Aberendai under the command of Commander B. I. Tdlly The Aberenda was sent to Apia par ticularly to facilitate the establishment of a coaing station at Pago-Pago, but 1t IS presumed that Commander Tihey has made arrangements to mintain communication with Consul Osborne, and in case of trouble she would take station at Apia and provide protection for American interests.
 "The charge is renewed that the Germans in the islands spreading dissatisfaction among the natives and 1t would not be surprising if certain Of these men are plot ting again with Mataafa. who has remained ip Samoa. The three governments have not yet formally adopted the recommenda- tions of the ioinIt high commission, which investigated the Samoan question, nor are negotiations looking to this end likely to Hay"

~THE PLAY@

The Robson Theater company, the Audi torium's first repertoire company, drew an enormous house last night and gave per- forrlance that pleased those present Man ager Thiess has not yet been able to figure out just how many people he can put in his house. but at rough guess he says 4,0OO can find plenty of room left, and while there were not quite the capacity present, the house was fairly well filled. In fact, last nights attendance at the Auditorium was, in numbers, far in excess of any audi ence witnessing a regular theatrical per formance in this city. The bill was "Ca- mille," with Miss Molie Nelson in the title role and MT. Robson as Armand Duval. The support was very good, and the pro- duction of such a strong play was one Of merit. The scenic portion of the produc- ton was magnificent, every piece of seen cry used being splendid work and fresh from the painters brush.
 The hit of the show, however, was the speciality of the Leblanc sisters, who ar rived here at 1920 o'clock, and twenty min utes later were before the audience doing a lot of songs, dances and cake walks that called for four decided and distinct encores.
  and their cake walking excellent.
 The company will give two performances daily, beginning with a matinee today.

 Mildred and Rouclere, the mystifiers, have named several of their dainty illu- sions after popular plays, novels and songs. Notable examples are offered in "The Chill dren of the Ghetto" "The Moth and the Flame" "The Choir Invisible" and "The Light of Asia" In the presentation and development of these deceptions an effort will be made to very concisely follow the story or some of the incidents of the fla nous originals and lead up to chmaxes that will possess intense dramatic qualities. None of these offerings have ever been att tempted in this city before.
 Mildred and Rouclere will be here at O'Brien's opera house tomorrow afternoon and night.
