SAMOA AGAIN RESTLESS.

Attitude Of tho Fstivos IL Far From
Reassuring --J ustics Chambers Talks.
San Francisco, July 81 Samoan adj
vices under date Of July Ia, were Ie-
ceived to day by tho steamer Moana as
follows. The situation in Samoa is
one OF great uneasiness, the attitude Of
natives being far from reassuring.
Several fights have occurred In differ
ent portions OF the islands between
supporters OF rivals for the kingship,
and several natives have been killed.
Nothing much seems to have been ac-
complished by the high commission
since arms were surrendered by the
contending factions.
Chief Justice Chambers. being dis
satisfied with the support extended to
his court by the commissioners, will
leave today for Washington. Their ac-
tion In refusing the aid asked for to
sustain the courts authority is said to
have been prompted by dispatches re-
ceived by the German commissioner
from his home government, which. 1t IL
claimed, Is greatly displeased with his
recognition Of the supreme court in the
kingship case.
The CONN issioners have been well
received on all the Islands they visited.
They expected TO sail for the United
States on the Badger on July l6.

Diversions on the Battle Field when
the Fight Was Raging.

During the trst engagement while
the company was firing at will into the
woods ahead, says Sergeant King in the
Minneapolis (Kan.) Messenger, for
lorn water buffalo, the Philippine
beast of burden, meanderad into the
rice field directly in front OF the line.
The writer Immediately directed his
fire toward the buffalo, with no appaT-
ent result. Afterwards. during lull
in the firing, we shamefully confessed
to having wasted our strength in this
ignoble manner and were surprised to-
learn that every man had done like,

good its escape, for it patiently plod4

and, apparently, Judging that all the
commotion was for his benefit, thought
best to retire. As the pig dashed past
the writer, we gently assisted with a
shove from the butt Of our gun and
thought no more Of il for some time.
Afterward, upon glancing to the rear,
we saw four or five soldiers in hot pur
suit OF the same poor little swine. 1t
is laughable, even in times of peace, to
watch another man chase a hog, but
when men forsake their places, forget
the roar Of conflict. the hum of bullets,
the shouts of the victors, and the walls
Of the wounded, to grapple with an
eight-pound shoat, the scene becomes
ludicrous in the extreme. We took the
trouble to learn that the pig got away.
At Calocan the rebels had mounted
two monstrous muzzle-loading guns
captured in former times from the
Spanish. They attempted to fire one

"We have offered the o. R. & N.

tracks from Portland. and to give them
terminals here, SO far as we have any
say in the matter, at very reasonable
terms. They may accept our PROPOSE

tory. II they are not, We will make
them satisfactory. 1t would be to our
interest. as we'll as theirs, to let
them run in over our tracks. rather
than build an additional line. We
would rather divide the cost and ex-
pense Of maintaining one line than to
pay all the cost ourselves The traf-

and not be crowded. AS for terms, we
will make terms that are satisfactory. "

The recent discussion in the papers
OF the effect upon the human system
Of food made with alum baking powders
and the opinions that have been pub
lshed from noted scientists to the
effect that such powders render the
food unSholesome, have caused numer-
ous inquiries for the names Of the vari-
Gus alum powders.
The following list Of baking powders
containing alum is made up from the
reports of State Chemist Nicholson, OF
Nebraska. the City Chemist of st.

sofa, OF other reliable authority:

In addition to these, it is learned
that many grocers are selling what
they call their own private or special

find their efforts to market their goods

without disguise.
1t is quite impossible to give tn
names of all the alum baking powder
in The market. They are constantl
appearing in all sorts of DISCUSSES, un

genuine yellow fever at the National

three deaths from the disease were re-
ported today. There were several other
deaths at the institution Yesterday. hut
it cannot be stated tonight that all OF
them were caused by yellow fever.
Newport News and Hampton will quar-
antine against the soldiers home to-
morrow morning. The government au-
lhoIities at Old Point have already
adopted tEis step, and no strangers are
allowed to enter the reservation.
Quarantine Officer Hobson, Of this
port, went to the soldiers home to-
night and verified the statemnt that
there ars now 80 cases OF the disease
at the home, and that there we're three
deaths from the malsdy today. While
no one outside of the soldiers home
knew anything about the existence OF
yellow fever until today, it is said that
the disease made its appearance three
DAYS ago. The most rigid quarantine
regulations will be enforced to prevent
the spread OF the malady.
The news has created great excite.
ment in Newport News, Old Point and
Hampton, and the most vigorous meas
ures will be adopted to prevent it's
spread. There are 1000 old veterans
at the home, and several large excur'
sion parties went there last week.

Of protest he wrote to the secretary in
this connection, and there was consid-
cradle excitement over the matter at
the time. This is said to have been
entirely made up by the two men after
Roosevelt's return from the war, but
Roosevelt never approved OF the man
agement of the war department.
Roosevelt, in his letter to the cabi-
net officer, was very severe in his criti-
cism OF the general course of the war
department, and insisted that the adj
ministraton could not afford to be held
responsible for Alger. nor to continue
the military policy in the Philippines
or in Cuba. He urged that vigorous
and effective operations be insisted on.
This letter was shown to the president
at once, as it was intended to be, and
from this was started the renewal of
the demand for Alger's retirement that
resulted in his resignation.
When the president sent for Roose.
velt. as he did some time before AlgeI
resigned, it is stated that the object in
calling him TO the White House was
to talk over this letter and try to reach
some understanding that would avoid
hasty action in the matter. 1t wal
