the British and American consuls

FURTHER DETAILS.
Auckland, N. z, January 80
Further particulars regarding the
disturbances at Samoa show Mataafa's 8
followers numbered about 5000 men
and that the adherents of Malietoa
Tanus were only about 1,C00 in num-
ber. There was two hours fighting
between the rival forces, during which
several of the warriors were decapi-
tated.
The American consul issued pro-
clamation claiming that the Berlin
treaty had the same force as law OF
Congress and that an insult to the
supreme court of Samoa is, there
fore, equivalent to an insult to the
government at Washington.

HAD TO PUT THE GERMAN CONSUL OUT
London, Jan. ia special dis
patch from Auckland, n. Il says the
British and Au erican consuls were
compelled to force the doors of the
supreme court at Apis, Samoa, in
which the German consul had estab-
Eshed himself, and to put him into
the street.
All parties at Apia, the special
dispatch continues, unite in condemn
ing the German consul for the fight
ing which has taken place between
the rival kings. II is pointed out
that in violation of all agreements,
the consul accompanied Mataafa's
forces when the claimant invaded the
town and encouraged the opposition
to Malietoa Tanus.
When the British and American
consuls were informed as to the sit
uation they adjourned the court and
locked the building. The German
consul demanded the keys, which
were refused him. He then broke
open the doors, removed the locks
and replaced them with others. He
afterward brought the German mu-
nicipal president into the chamber
andthe latter went upon the balcony
and shouted to the British and
American marines assembled on the
square: Il am the supreme court.
I am the chief justice"
The crowd replied with jeers and
the British consul demanded the
keys of the building, which were re-
fused.

There Is no excuse for those property owners who have failed to have the snow removed from the sidewalk in front Of their buildings and vacant lots In the busi- ness thoroughfareS Of the city. No one should need his attention called 10 the tact that he owes to public safety this plain duty. It has been suggested that the ststutes providing against the continuance of a nuisance are applicable to the situa- ton. lf so they should be applied. Any one who Is SO nlggATdy penuriouS or erim- irally careless as to neglect this duty oU ing to the public, should be compelled to pay fine.

TWO FINGERS SAVEDI
Fred Breen Safely Emerges from n
 Bloody Engagement.

An occurrence. scarcely less bloody than a BoerBrltlsh battle, and at first seemingly as disastrous as some of the fieroer engage ments, befell Fred Breen at the Occidental hotel yesterday. Breen, with the assist anee of J. T. Triton, was closely scrutln- izlng a fine revolver. Breen took the mur- derouS weapon In his right hand and plae- ing a part of his left hand over the mouth of the barrel pulled the trigger. Snap went the trigger and eraek went the gun, and leadeh missile whlzzed forth. A flow of blood immsdiatelv covered BTeen'S lett hand, and he and Triton, after hur- lied vet elreumSpeCt survey of matters, deeld.d Breen had lost two fingers. Just which two they were not certain, but they waited not a moment for further develop ments or barley, but hurried for Dr. Moore to have him dress the wound.
 They were sorely disappointed upon ar irving at the doctors office by finding no one in, and were compelled 10 retreat wlth the dripping hand not dressed.
 After a hurrieJ consultation and wise deliberatlon of thirty seconds, 1t was de- cided to wash the hand and put rag around the ragged end of the fingers before looking for another doctor.
 The hand was washed. With a repulS. i've feeling, prepared to suit, the men looked for the shredded members. They looked in vain for shredS. N't finger had been touched, but on one side of the hand was a skin wound, showing the track of the bullet. The scare passed, but Breen a Triton were left limp, and are still engaged endeavOring to make satisfac- tory explanations.

THE "UNIrED STATES HOTEL
Rooms Bear State Names instead OF
Numbers in Southern Hosiery.

~ ran across one OF the queerest
hotels In the world not long ago,
said a drummer at the Wallace House
to-day. 81 don't care to advertise the
establishment gratuitously, SO suffice
it to say it's situated in city made
by nearly all travelling men out
of New Orleans, and is run by an &C.
centric old chap who has named his
house the 'sUnited States" hotel and
his rooms after states instead Of CIV
ing them numbers. The effect is
somewhat startling. / went there
first to inquire for a friend. Yes he's
in Maine, replied the clerk, when |
mentioned his name. But he isn't
in Maine / protested, for | happen to
know he's right here in this hotel
Then he explained. While / was
standing there waiting, the side talk
at the desk was enough to make a man
crazy. Gent in Massachusetts is
kicking, sir, said bell boy; claims
dat Teller in Utah is all de time playin
the cordian at nights. Put him in
Montana, said the clerk. No towels
in North Dakota, said a chamber
maid, and that fat man in Florida
wants TO be changed to Vermont
My friend came down looking very
rocky. He said he'd been sitting n
a little poker game in West Virginia
the night before and woke up in Cali
fornia. Didn't know how the dickens
he goo there. The place interested
me, and / could hardly tear myself
away. My friend assured me that it
was run strictly according to state
traditions. He was in Maine at first,
but they refused to send any beer to
his room on account of the prohibition
law, so he had them change him across
the hall to Kentucky, and now he
likes it SO well he has concluded to
stay indefinitely.

The following from the Washington
Star staunch administration paper
is rather significant: ssBut what about
the Trusts? What will be the deliy-
erance of the Republicans on that is
sue? They will find it necessary to
make one, and it ought to be clear
and unequivocal. Trusts are men-
ace, and that menace is increasing
1t is no answer to say that Trusts
cheaper the price of articles to con-
sumers. Cheapness at the cost Of in
dividual opportunity for business, at
the cost of wholesome competition, at
the cost of increased Hobbies here in
Washington and at State capitals for
the purpose Of corruptly seeking legis-
lative favors-that sort of cheapness
is exceedingly expensive. 1.-THE ques-
ton is difficult one to handle, but
it is now so important that it cannot
be evaded. The Republicans are in
power, and something Of a definite
nature will justly be expected Of them
on the subject.

We do not wish to give away Re-
publican secrets. but Hon. Thos. f..
Davis, of Grafton, was in this place
this week circulating among his
many friends and after he left town
the general impression was that he
was candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor in 1900,
and we discovered that he had many
friends here who will help to CRAFTY
his ambition. The ex-senator seems
hard to satisfy. Most people think
that 1900 will be a worse year for
the Republicans in West Virginia
than 1892 was. We like the Senator
and would dislike to see him again
led to the slaughter. Unless all
signs fail Democrat will be elected
Governor of West Virginia in 1900.

the corporations got the votes they
