But One That is Still Far From Alarming
The Latest Bloodshed Renders a Settle
ment More DifRcult.
Washington, April 12.-The acute sit
uation in Samoa gave rise to grave APP
prehension among officials during the
early day in Washington, but the con-
clusion was reached as the depart
ments closed that the situation is one
that will yield to sensible and cool
treatment if all the parties to the Ber-
lin treaty are sincere in an effort to
prevent further trouble. AS put by a
cabinet officer, the killing of the sail
ors has not materially changed the gen.
eral problem, though it has undoubted-
ly added to the difficulty of dealing with
the specific situation. The only official
news received touching the last Incl
dent was contained in Admiral Kautz' S
cablegram. The secretary said that no
additional instructions were to be sent
by him to the admiral. The secretary
of state, however, has been told that he
is at liberty to forward any instruc-
tions to the admiral that he may deem
necessary.
The diplomatic negotiations of the
day were not directed particularly to
the encounter, as the official informa-
ton is too meagre thus far to warrant
positive official action.
In the main the diplomatic negotia-
lions continued to center around the
high commission On this subject a
breach is gradually opening between
Great Britain and Germany because of
the refusal of Great Britain to have the
commission leave San Francisco on the
