LONDON, April s.-The unravelng OF the
Samoan ENHANCEMENT is followed with keen
interest here, especially in colonial circles.
Germany's "obstinacy," its attitude is
termed here, from the beginning of the
troubles is regarded as 'incomprehensible''
and is said to be only explained by desire
to get the upper hand in the islands. This
view is expressed by colonial expert, who.
writing to the Morning Post, says:
For some reason never yet explained
Germany regards Samoa as important
link in its foreign policy. Rather than give
up Samoa the Germans would go to war.
No doubt Germany has not forgotten what
a prize Heligoland has proved and the Ger
man chancellor possibly anticipates more
important deal IL he can only get possession
OF Samoa"
The newspapers point out the growing
Importance of Samoa to New Zealand and
the significance of the latter's offer to send
volunteers to Samoa.
Whites Utterances Discredited.
The alleged interview with the United
States ambassador to Germany, Andrew d.
White. published in the Munich Allege-
meine Zeitung, has attracted attention, but
the utterances attributed to Mr.. White are
not generally credited
The Morning Post editorially says:
The sentiments ascribed to Mr.. White are
plainly colored by the prevailing tone OF
dissatisfaction with Great Britain existing
in Germany on the subject. We cannot be
misled by the complexion Of the interview
!. into believing that Mr.. White has discovered
~ ~ Enr'"'5 which tend ayairs'
his ideal OF the determination OF Great
Britain, America and Germany. which we
frankly adopt. No United States
diplomatist could have discussed the cir
cumstances in the tone alleged by the Mu-
Mich Allegemeine zeitung of Mr.. White
The Spectator which thinks that pre-
posterous Importance has been given to the
whole affair says:
Great Britain only needs a coaling sta
tior, II it needs that, but We must vigor'
ously support American claims and the bus
mess will be tedious and expensive"

about fifty masterpieces which will afford an
opportunity to our art critics to show their
knowledge Of high class work, and which no

the tickets are being disposed of argues well
for those who have the festival in charge.

made for this festival, and the following ma
tions will be represented United States,

EXCITING DAY AT vAECEBURG.

Two Thousand People Gather in the
Town and Prevent an Alleged Effort
to Throw out the Vote OF Lewis
County on Technicality.
Louisville. Nov. 14.-The tangle
growing out OF last weeks election
grows worse with each day. Yester-
day was the third day OF the official
count, but the work OF the county
boards OF canvassers disclosed little
information to clear the situation.
Chairman Long. OF the Republican
campaign committee, repeated his
claim OF a plurality OF 3,111 for Tay-
lor. based on official returns from 10
counties and unofficial returns from the
remaining nine. The Democratic pa
pers and leaders here have ceased TO
give figures, but specials from Frank
fort quote Candidate Goebel and other
fident Of success.
The complexion Of the returns to be
presented to the state board OF cleo

which gave Taylor a plurality of 600
on technicality, 1t being claimed the
paper on which the ballots were print
ed was too thin. On this ground the
election board last week threw out
the vote of Mowers and Burtonville

raity. and adjourned until yesterday
Word was passed through the county
and yesterday about 1000 citizens
flocked into Vanceburg and gathered
around the court house when the cleo
ton board met.
News reached the crowd that the
commissioners were about to throw
out the vote Of another precinct. and
there was an angry demonstration.
Trouble seemed imminent, when II was
announced that the election board had
reeonsidered its action by which the
vote OF certain precincts had been
thrown out. and that the entire vote
OF the county would be counted as
cast. This prevented any further dem
onstrations.
