LEADING TOPIC AT LONDON.
Comments on the Samoan Trouble
Salisbury Kept Posted.

copyright, 1899. by the Associated Press.l
LONDON, April 1.-The Marquis of Sails
bury. although officially holidaying on the
Riviera, is keeping in close touch with the
Foreign Office. There has been a continual
exchange OF kilograms on the subject of
the recent developments in Samoa and the
negotia tions between three interested
powers which have been keeping his hands
full. In addition, messengers leave London
every other Gay with Foreign Office dis
patches for the premier and minister Of
foreign affairs.
The Samoan blaze has been the leading
political topic of the week and the general
drift of the press comments has been that
the matter will be settled amicably between
the powers. The Spectator this week says:
1.-THE Samoan incident looks ugly, but we
do not think it will come to anything. Under
other circumstances the bombardment would
have produced war, but as matters stand
the three powers will arrive at an agree
ment Let us hope that they will divide the
islands for the peace of the world. Any gov
ernment is better than the condominium."
The Saturday Review throws the entire
blame upon the German agents and declares
the bombardment will not prove an un-
mixed evil IL it finally convinces Germany
of the folly of making Samoa the scapegoat
of internal jealousies in the south Pacific"

THE SCARE AT MANILA.
An EngIishwOman's Description of
Scenes i'm the City.

Copyright. <se by the Associated Press.l
LONDON, April 1.-Extracts from the
diary of English lady at Manila have
been published in the papers here. They
give a graphic description of the situation
at Manila, the outbreak Of hostilites and
the feeling of panic among the residents
They also tell of the scare in the city in
the middle of January owing to the small
rising inside the walls. The people packed
up their jewels. money and clothes, all
ready to run. Under date Of Jan. she de-
scribes the previous Sunday and says: "A
huge red balloon ascended from the rebel
camp as a signal TO attack and the firing
increased steadily. A soldier came to tell
us that the rebels had burned the water
works and that we must fill everything we
had as the supply would stop in few
hours. The firing came nearer and nearer.
We seemed to be in the very center of a
perfect storm of bullets all around the
house. At last we heard that the rebels
were driven back and saw the home troops
return. Poor things They were dead beat,
just tramping along, dragging one foot aft
er the other, and behind them was the sad
little procession OF wounded on stretchers."
On Feb. 9, referring TO the skirmish at
Malati, she wrote: when the fire was too
hot for the rebels they put up white flag
the Americans advanced and when quite
close the rebels fired at them. This hor-
rible treachery met with just reward

BODIES OF DEAD SOLDIERS.
They VIII Not Be Brought Home for
at Least Six Months.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-Adjutant Gen.
eral Corbin yesterday cabled General Otis
Saying that the secretary of war desired if
possible, that the dead Of the recent cam
paign be returned to the United States on
the early transports and asked the opinion
of the General on the subject. General Otis
cabed to-day that it would be impossible
TO send the bodies home now. The climatic
conditions are such as to make it danger
Gus TO the health of the people who would
handle the bodies. He was of the opinion
that six months later the remains of the
dead could be returned to the United States.
General Corbin sent a reply TO General Otis
directing that no further effort be made at
present to ship the remains of the soldiers
to the United States. He told General Otis
that the acting secretary of war desired
that not only the graves of the soldiers
buried in Manila be plainly designated, but
that each casket should also be carefully
marked so that there will be no question of
Identifying the dead when the remains are
removed TO this country. With this care
it is believed there will be but few unknown
dead TO be returned. Many anxious rel
atives have asked the War Department if
the dead soldiers were to be sent home. and
these inquiries resulted in the cable corre-
spondence.

COMMENT OF GERMAN PRESS
BITTER, But THE GOV
ERNMENT ORGANS VERY RETICENT.
President Mckinley Reported to Have
News of the Collision in Samoa.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The following
was given out at the State Department this
afternoon:
1.-THE secretary of state has received from
the secretary of the navy a telegram ad-
dressed to him by Rear Admiral kautz, reia-
tive to Samoan matters. 1t is dated New
Castle, n. S. W., March 80, and reads as
follows: The Mataafa people obeyed orders
to leave the government reservation. since
then they have become aggressive, Killing
Private Holloway and three British sailors
Our man killed was guarding the American
consulate. The German consul general ls-
sued an incendlary proclamation, saying tnat
my proclamation was untrue, and he should
uphold the provisional government. The
British forces acted in concert with the
United States, shelling the rebels where they
could be reached
"A copy of the dispatch was sent to the
German ambassador. Dr. Won Holeben
called at the State Department at noon and
had a fifteen minutes conference with Sec
retary Hay. The nature of the conference
was not disclosed. but it was taken for
granted that it had to do with the Samoan
settlement The German authorities have
heard nothing further as TO the collision N
Samoa.
The new proposal referred to in the Berlin
dispatches as having been accepted by all
three governments is that for joint high
commission, that being the only PROPOSE
ton now pending. Ambassador Whites call
on the German Foreign Office was doubtless
TO express the favorable view which this
government takes of the proposed settle
ment. The British government has not siS-
nified its formal acceptance, although, IN
the absence of Lord Salisbury, the acting
officials of the Foreign Office take such
favorable view that British acceptance is
considered assured. The British character
istic of mature deiberation is asserting it.
self, however, and for this reason il is
thought that final acceptance may be de-
ferred for some days. 1t was remarked to-
day in a high diplomatic quarter that there
was no need of hurry in the matter now that
the three governments had shown dispo-
sition to act together. as it would take al
most three months for the high commission
TO assemble in Samoa and begin work. This
time, it was pointed out, would be required
for the selection of the men, the issuance
of their instructions. the conferences and
study given to the question. and the long
journey to Samoa.
The American government has made no
explanation to Germany regarding any fea-
ture of the Samoan affair, save to set forth
the American position. This government
has not thought its action required any fur.
ther explanation than to express regret that
there had been a collision at Samoa. At
the same time the opinion is expressed that
there would have been &c hostile action had
not the American authorities at Samoa felt
that it was impera tive.

perhaps again destroy some of the bridges
on the railroad and for time cut off COM

American army and Manila. General Otis
will take measures to prevent anything OF
the kind. and no doubt will ascertain the
location and number of the insurgents be-
fore making any further advance in pursuit
Of Aguinaldo and his fleeing army. 1t is
evident that while General Otis reports
everything "all quiet" that he has had a

COMMENTS OF GERMANS
Agrarian Press Attacks the Govern.
ment for Yielding to Americana

copyright, 1899. by the Associated Press1
BERLIN, April ]. - The latest develop
ments in the Samoan muddle have claimed
the larger part of public attention this week
The government is most reticent, TO the
great dissatisfaction OF the press, and in
the absence of clear information from head
quarters regarding the attitude Of the gov
ernment editorial comment is varied and
contradictory. The agrarian organs attack
the minister OF foreign affairs, Baron Won
Buelow, and the government for yielding
overmuch 10 the United States ambassador,
Andrew ID. White, and TO the authorities at
Washington. The Nationalistc Deutsche
Zeitung says: Many Germans are disap-
pointed with the Won Buelow regime and
wish Marschall Won Biebersteins, bad as it
was, back again.
The Kreuz Zeitung says there is abundant
confirmation at hand showing it is not so
much the United States as Great Britain
that has opposed difficulties in front of ev-
cry step Germany has taken or wished to
take in Samoa, and expresses amazement
that, while Great Britain has attempted
to make Germany believe she was friendly,
the British policy of envy continues" The
Kreuz Zeitung adds: "England's calcula-
tions seem TO be that Germany will not risk
a conflict over such a trife as Samoa. The
error of this calculation is that our pres
tige in the world depends on the MAIN
tenance of our acquired rights. We are
ready TO agree to a fair compromise. includ-
ing the abolition of the codominium. Be-
yond that we cannot 60 1t is understood
that the foregoing was inspired.
Another article in the Kreuz Zeitung says:
1T is shameful that in spite of the para
mount German interests in Samoa English
is the only language officially allowed" The
paper then asks the government 10 see,
in the negotiations pending. that Germany
is accorded equal rights with England. In
conclusion the KreuZ Zeitung remarks:
"Englands success in Samoa at Germanys
cost would be the worst business England
has done for the last hundred years."
The Tageblatt expresses confidence that
neither Great Britain nor the United States
will override legitimate German reports and
maintains the government possesses infor-
nation to the effect that no such attempt
will be made.
The correspondent here OF the Associated
Press learns from an authoritative source
that after the acting minister OF foreign
affairs, Baron Won Richthoffen. had been
