Respective Goy.s ment.

, SAN FRANCISCO, Au-. 1.-The Call
publishes the report of tripariit, co,r-
mission sent to Samoa. making various
recommendations regarding the now
torn OF government decided uoon bv
them as most suitable for the island
erS. These resolutions are based upon
the best features of the Berlin trcalv
and included the main features of the
proposed treaty, as amended and nodi-
NED by the commissioners. The official
report of the commissioners and the
draft of the proposed amended treaty
are sald TO be now on the way to the
respective governments.
Among other things the report saws:
The chief evils may c, in our onin-
ION, grouped under four heads:
l. Those which appear to inevitably
attend the election Of a king in Samoa
and his subsequent efforts to exert hi, |
authority.
. Those which arc due TO the rivalry |
of foreign nationalitics between them
selves and 10 their position TO take
sides in the native politics and thus in
crease the Importance and bitterness
OF the disputes which arise.
3 A third class Of evils have their
origin in the fact that for many years
there has been no l,w or government |,
in Samoa other than native custom
outside the limits of the municipality. ,
Murder and other serious crimes have /
unpunished when committed =
~ persons of rank. and the supreme
ourt and the nominal government at
iulinuu have been equally powerless

Admiral Reception hen the Latter
Arrives In Washington.

NAsnINGToN, July 81. President
Mckinley will give reception to Adm.
Dewey at the white house when the
latter arrives in Washington. At first
he was in doubt whether n reception
or dinner would be more appropriate,
but the former is likely to be decided
on for the reason that it would be
more popular in character and would
grant TO multitude of people an on
portunity TO meet the naval hero and
shake hands with him.
The management Of the rcccption
Will be very simple and will differ in
no important respects from regular af-
fairs of that character at the white
