SAMOAN COMMISSIONS WORK.
Its Operations Detailed by the Ger
man Representative ut Apia.

Prior to the arrival of the Samoan COM
mission" said ex-Consul General Rose yes
terday afternoon, IAN armistice had been
arranged with the native forces. Mataafa
and his men were back of a line sweeping
around the city Of Apia and extending from
the town of Ealenla to Lantii. The Ma
taafa forces numbered about 900 men.
Tanu and his men occupied the peninsula
jutting out from the mainland near Apia.
They numbered about 1000 men. Both
forces were fairly we'll armed. but the Tanu
men had in addition to their old arms
about 100 modern rifles furnished by the
British ships at the time of the conflict.
The commissioners first turned their at
tention to disarming the native forces. As
soon as they arrived Mataafa sent a letter
of greeting, and said he would abide by
any decision they might make. The COM
mission then gave a hearing on board the
Badger to each of the claimants for the
kingship Mataafa being heard one day and
Tanu the other. They Were addressed not
as kings. but simply as sir As senior
member of the body the American commits
Sioner, Mr.. Trip, asked some very direct
questions Of Mataafa and Tanu. He want
ed to know II they Were ready to give their
support to the commission, even if ii de-
other of them to the kingship or to abolish
the kingship entirely. Serious as these
questions were to the two claimants for the
throne. they promised 10 support the COM
mission in whatever action was taken.
Some days later the Badger went along
the coast to Male, where Mataafa head
quarters were located. The native chiefs
came alongside, and formal surrender of
1875 guns was made to the commission.
Mataafa and his chiefs came aboard the
ship and were entertained at a dinner. The
Tanu party followed with the surrender of
their arms few days later, for while the
decision of the commissioners had upheld
Tanu. yet it was felt to be in the interest
of all concerned that the native kingship
should be brought TO an end, and that an
greatest, should be brought about Tanu
yielded to this decision, but for time there
was some prospect of further trouble as
the royal flags were kept flying over the
Tanu headquarters, despite the fact that
he had surrendered the kingship. This was

AMERICAN CONCESSIONS IN CHINA.
Some of the Provisions of the Origf-
nal Grant.

The American minister in Picking has
been instructed to use his good offices in
all proper ways in behalf of the American
company which claims railway conces-
sion in southern China, and to prevent in
jury to its interests. There has been no
communication between the United States
and the British government in regard to
the matter. and no joint action has been
asked for by the American company. The
traditional policy of the State Department
has been pursued in this as in other CASES.

prises the minister is warned not to favor
one at the expense OF the other, but to eN-
ert his good offices in all cases OF contracts

ests shall have an equal chance with those
of other countries.
The Chinese minister. Mr.. WI Ting Fang.
says that he has not been advised in any
official manner of the combination between
the American and British companies having
certain concessions in China. The minister
is deeply Interested in everything that per-
ta!ns to the American concession as il was
granted through him in April. 1S.lS after

In the original concession granted to the

the players of the city being cordially in
vfted to come in and take hand. The fear
of making bad record ought not to deter
any one, this fast moving is no cue at
all to the strength of player, and only
occasions plenty of amusement, because of
the inevitable blunders-
The big tourney in London is now thing
of the past. Lasker does more than win
first prize: his pre-eminence is more marked
than ever, for his four losses during the
whole affair makes the nine Of his closest
opponents look like they are out of his
class. Yet when five rounds We're
played and Lasker had lost 2is points the
verdict of the sharps at hand was that he
was out of the form of his previous tourney
play. From that time his only losses were

derstanding arrived at. Since arriving in
this country, however, / understand that
this source Of difficulty has been removed
and that the Tanu flag is withdrawn and
the Tanu forces dispersed. The Mataafa
people have also gone back to the interior.
With the natives disarmed and both fac
tors back to their old homes, there is every
reason to believe that no further trouble
Will arise and that the commission Will be
free to work out a satisfactory plan for
the future government of the islands.
In determining upon the abolition Of the
kingshlp the commission examined the
question with great care. The opinion OF
all the leading business interests in Samoa
was secured. and this was almost unani-
nous in favor of aboishing the kingship.
The manager of the German company,
which is the most extensive business con-
Germ on the islands. strongly approves the
plan of having white administration. The
two large American companies, the British
business interests and the smaller German
concerns also approved the plan"

WHIST AT CHICAGO.
Impossible to Predict the Winners of
the Trophies.


This is the last day Of the whist congress
at Chicago, and last night it was impossible
to predict the winner in any of three princi-
pal trophy events. Thursday and yester-
days games threw a slightly different light
upon the complexion of affairs, and the
east still has good chance to take one or
ncre of the prizes. In the finals for the
challenge trophy it is true there Is but one
eastern team, the Americans of Boston,
while five western teams oppose them.
The Americans, however though their
playing was a disappointment to their
friends during the early part of the week,
have now struck their gait. Thursday night
they defeated the redoubtable ST Paul
team by three tricks. They have beaten
the North Shore with two victories and but
one defeat, and their chance for taking the
trophy east seems excellent. st. Paul lost
its game to the Americans through lack of
a rotary discard.
In the Hamilton finals the Racine team
has furnished the sensation of the meeting,
and is easily leading with four wins and
one defeat. Philadelphia and Buffalo are
the only eastern survivors. They are still
in the game, however, with two wins and
two losses each, and if Philadelphia can
beat Racine tonight it may take the trophy
home.
In the Minneapolis trophy contest thirty
eight teams are entered. and the scores of
the leading teams are as follows: Des
Moines, 2112 matches; Cicero, 20l.; Ravens
wood, 2o1@; Ypsilanti, 2O1a; Walbrook, -;
Fergus Falls, 20; Chicago duplicate, 1872
Aurora, 10; Baltimore. liz, and Maryland
Bicycle, 1o12. The preliminary play was
finished last night and the eight pairs with
the highest scores will qualify for the finals
today, which will thus be a four-ta BILE
Howell game. The uncertainties of the
game were never better illustrated than by
the defeat American suffered yesterday
afternoon at the hands of Sioux Falls, a
