For sereral days preparations have
been in progress. The little chapel had

plants and shrubs, and decorators had
been busy at the Clark cottage. A pro-
fusion of cut flowers and poisoning
plants added this forenoon made COM
plete the design intended to add beauty
to the scene.

MINISTER MERRY IGNORED.
HIS ARRIVAL AT MANAGUA
WAS UNNOTICED.
Omission Attributed to the Fact
That the Detroit Was Sent
to BIuefelds.-

Correspondence of the Associated PressD
MANAGUA (Nicaragua) April T.
The official and semi offic al newspapers
at this capital ignore the arrival here on
April 10th Of United States Minister
William Lawrence Merry This is nota-
Bile. as the newspapers are usually
prompt and courteous in the publication
of news of international interest. In
some quarters this omission is attrjb-
uted to the fact that the Government Of
the United States has just sent the war
ship Detroit to Bluefields to make an in
vestigation and protect citizens and
represent atives of the United States
against the decisions and demands of
General Francisco Torres, who is by
authority of President Zelaya, exercis-
ing the dictatorship at Bluefelds and in
the eastern part of Nicaragua.
Some three or four years ago Presi-
dent Zelaya promised the Government
of the United States not to employ
Torres again on the Atlantic coast of
Nicaragua, because he was charged
with permitting and aiding in the es-
cape from Nicaragua of a prisoner in
his charge, a Colonel in Zelaya's army,
who was accused Of murde. ing a citizen
of the United States at Rama, Near
aqua.
President Zelaya has recently secretly
purchased from Max Figenshmidt of
Liege, Belgium, two batteries of six
cannons each, the weapons being
Hotchkiss rapid fire field guns, and a
large quantity of ammunition, paying
about 81 900 in gold for each battery.
He has also ordered through German
commission house a large number of
telephone and several telegraph instru-
ment, a quantity of copper wire and
telegraph supplies. He has already
about $4,000 worth of rifles, Reming-
ton and Mausers, and about fifty pieces
of field artillery of various kinds, and a
large supply of munitions of war. The
occasion for these expenditures is not
apparent.
There appear to be no indications of a
revolution in Nicaragua against Presi-
dent Zelaya, and there appears TO be no
need of more cannon and war materials
unless President Zelaya anticipates war
with Costa Rica and wants an extra
supply of arms to distribute among dis
affected natives of Costa Rica-
President Zelaya lis to send his pri-
vate secretary to Salvador on special
secret mission. The object of this is APP
parently to make an effort to persuade
the Government of Salvador to form a
secret alliance with Zelaya and tina
President of Honduras with the object
of keeping each of the executives in his
present position.
During the last three years the Gov
eminent of Nicaragua has spent much
in efforts to have electric lights
instituted at the capital and in other
cities of the State, but every effort has
resulted in failure

confirming the press report that a truce
has been agreed upon in Samoa and
that there will be no more hostilities
pending the reaching of a conclusion by
the commission now on the way to the
islands,
AGREED.
WASHINGTON. May Am official
statement is made at the German En-
bassy that strict instructions were given
to the German Consul at Apia, Samoa,
to join with his colleagues, American
and British, in a proclamation for the
suspension of hoStilities until the ar
rival of the Samoan Commission. Under
these circumstances the officials are at
a loss to account for the press report
coming via Auckland, that the Germans
refused to join in the proclamation, and
are inclined to attribute it to anti Ger
man influences.
The proclamation was to be addressed
to the natives, and as the American,
British and German representatives
were to issue the proclamation, all par
ties in interest, native and foreign,
would be reached by the proclamation.
The recent reports from Auckland
that the natives are menacing the out
skirts of Apia are not understood, as
the instructions given to the German
Consul are such that it is point OF
honor with him to see that the natives
refrain from aggressive movements
pending the arrival of the Commission
erS.
At the British Embassy no advices
have been received concerning the re-
ported refusal of the Germans to join
in the proclal ion. Mr. Tower. the
British Charge, saw Secretary Hay to-
day. and this was understood to have
been among the matters discussed.
The interest which London is begin
ming to take in the Samoan question is
indicated by the arrival here of John
George Leigh of the London Times"
who stopped here to meet officials before
proceeding to Samoa. 1t is said he will
be the first representative of a British
paper there.
GERMAN SETTLERS PLEASED.
BERLIN, May 4-The National lei
tung'' publishes to-day a dispatch from
Apia, Samoa, dated April I'D, which
says:
THE orders from London and Wash
ington to suspend hostilities have
brought back peace and tranquility. In
compliance with the demand of the Ger
man Consul, Mataafa has gone back a
long distance westward into the inter
ior, so that there will be no danger of
any collision with his troops. We Ger
mans are materially satisfied that our
patience and impartiality have finally
triumphed"

PREPARATION.

Seeing that the United States may
start a colonial system during next
Congress, and that no doubt consider
able time and research will be devoted
to evolving plans, it is interesting to
know something of such systems and
much information upon the point is
contained in the monthly summary of
commerce and finance, just published
by the Bureau of Statistics.
The various colonies, protectorates
and dependencies of the world number
in all 125. They occupy two-fifths of
the land of the globe and their popula-
ton is one-third of the entire people
of the earth, which is now estimated
at 1,50O,00O,000. These colonies, ETC.,
lie chiefly within the torrid zone, and
the governing countries lie in the north
temperate zone. Upon these premises
a strong argument can be built up in
favor of the Independent races of the
temperate regions ruling and occupy
ing the tropical countries. 1t has been
the course of history for centuries, and
has historical precedent to appeal to
over and over again.
Great Britain owns two-fifths of the
125 colonies, protectorates and depen-
denotes, which make up the total list;
but the area is one-half the grand to-
tai and the population considerably
more than one-half. France stands
next in number, area and population,
but the area is about one-third of the
British possessions and the population
less than one-siXth.
OF the colonies and protectorates the
total imports amount to 81 1900, 900, 900
worth of goods annually, and of this
vast sum 40 per cent is purchased from
the mother countries, or from the pro-
tecting powers, and of their exports,
which are nearly $1,000, 600, 600 in value,
40 per cent goes in the same direction.
From this it is very plain that large
markets are opened up by colonies and
that the colonies are disposed to trade
with the mother country, even when
for markets, as the United States is
now doing, owing to the enormous in
crease in its manufacturing industries,
must necessarily look with a favoring
eye to increasing those markets by col
onization in the same direction that
other powers from the temperate zone
have done, viz: in the tropics.
1t may be laid down as a dictum that
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1899-03-15
ENTER ITALY.

The partition of China seems to be
now made a demand for position on
the coast under similar terms to those
upon which Germany obtained it's sta
ton at Kiauchau, with a ninety mine
year lease. The Chinese foreign office
has refused to make the grant and It
ally is now preparing to make a naval
demonstration which will probably end
in taking the place by force.
There may, however, be complica-
ton. France is averse to Italy ac-
posed to have influenced the Chinese
ministry of foreign affairs. Great Brit
ain on the other hand supports Italy in
her demand. Now should Russia side
with France, that eastern struggle
about which so much has been written
and said, may finally take shape.
In fact, in the present condition of re-
lations between France and Great
Britain, it is quite on the cards that
the latter country has urged Italy TO
the step she has taken. Many neWSpa-
pers on the continent of Europe think
that war between France and Great
Britain is inevitable, and that the lat
ter power only desires to have a prop
er preteXt to begin.
In the worlds drama in the eastern
seas and sea coasts it is curious how
new characters are turning up every
day. The plot is evidently thickening,
and when all is ready we may expect
a grand transformation scene.

The Japanese We're a menace to l1a-
wall, when the Islands were an indie
pendent little republic. At that time
there was no telling when the govern
ment of the Mikado might take it into
its head to make a demand for the
franchise. Had such a demand been
made under the guns of the Naniwa,
We would have been powerless. Now
there are no such fears. The Japanese
cannot acquire the franchise, and the
Japanese government cannot dream of
ever gaining possession of the Islands.
The Japanese since annexation, have
ceased to be menace.

Congressman Hit reviews the posi-

Washington interview Matters here
will go smoothly enough till congress
decides what SHAH be done in the way
of organic law. There may be some
spats in the law courts and some
points reserved for future decision OF
the United States supreme court, but
that will be about all the difficulty.
Now that President Mckinley is more
at leisure, as he has full powers over
Hawaii till congress meets and for
mulates some definite plan, he may
make few changes in the personnel
of the officials here, indeed there is
some talk of this, but the changes, if
any, will not be numerous.
