TO SETTLE THE TROUBLE.
Affairs VIII be Left TO a
-f COmunfxxfOn,k

Washington, April "a joint high
commission to settle the whole Sa-
moan trouble has been practically
agreed upon by the United States,
British and German governments.
Lord Salisbury's absence from Lon
don alone delays the formal acceptance
by Great Britain, In his absence Sir
Thomas Anderson and Mr.. Villiers,
who are understood TO be specially IA
miliar with the Samoan question, AVE
approved the plan for a commission.
The United States has Informally ex.
pressed it's approval and the formal
aeceptauce. il is learned from the
highest quarter, will follow Speedily.
AS the proposition emanates from
Germany her approval of course is as
surpd.
This high commission, it is felt, af-
fords sa3 pacific solution to the whole
trouble at the moment when Samoan
affairs began 10 look the most threat
ening. The new plan has been thor
otghly gone over by Secretary Hay
and the British and German amhassa-
doris here and its essential details
worked out. Each nation is to be rep
resented by M member OF the conf
mission. 1t is to have practically un-
limited authority without the neces-
sity of referring its decisions back TO
the several governments for approval.
1t is felt that.>by comforting such COM
plete and final authority on the high
commission the danger will be obvi-
ated of any further deadlocks and de-
lays. Still another important provision
under consideration is that King Os-
car of Norway and Sweden shall be
the umpire in case the three high COM
missioners should fail to reach "a deter
mination.
The plan of inviting King Oscar to
settle a disagreement meets the APP
proya of the British and German au-
thorities. and doubtlessly Will be APP
proved by the United States as n
means of securing finality of decision,
though, 1t is not known just how far
this has been considered by the Wash
ington authorities. The expectation is
that the sittings of the commission
will be in Samoa, where, for the time
being they will have complete author
ity over the whole range of Samoan
affairs so far as the high commission
may think tit TO act in order 10 fully
restore order and establish affairs on a
stable basis.
BIamn America and England.
Berlin, April 2.-The comment on the
Samoan situation continues fairly
! moderate, though the papers naturally
defend the German officials and throw
all the blame on the the Americans

TO USE NATIVE TROOPS.
They VIII BE Employed to Keep
A~guinaldo Busy.

Washington, April. BIT is said at
the war department that Gen. Otis
will not make a campaign during the
rainy season.. nor. ii is believed. Will he
at present chase the Filipinos TO the
mountain Businesses of LuZon. The
officials consider It evident that the
fight that was in Aguinaldo has been
whipped out of him, and it is believed
he cannot hold the Filipino army to-
gether much longer. If Gen. Otis adj
vises the war department will approve
the cessation of active hostillties or
further forward movement, when lit
tie can be accomplished save chasing
the Filipinos without definite results.
A short rest will determine whether
the Filipinos intend to keep up a
guerrilla warfare. and If so q plan is
already maturing to meet any such
condition. The natives will be en-
ployed TO fight the guerillas. and as
the government Fan give them better
pay and afford them greater protection
than Aguinaldo. there is no doubt
about the ability to employ natives in
this way. If there must be guerilla
fighting during the rainy season,
which will soon be upon the Philip
pines, the United States will not sac
rifice it's troops in such warfare If ma
tives can be obtained.

UNFRIENDLY TO AGUINALDO.

Manila. April 2. - Recently issued
copies of the Republican Filipino,
Aguinaldo's official organ, containing
a proclamation to the effect that GER
tain parties are raiding the northern
towns, order the same to Join the Fill
Pine army Immediately or take the
consequences, which falling to do. shall
be punished with the Americans.
This Is construed as meaning that
Macaholas, the governor Of the five
northern provinces. is u%nfriendly to
Aguinaldo. If this be true, Aguinaldo's
retreat is undoubtedly cut off at the
railroad beyond San Fernando.
