iIr, wight. Recommendation


Commissioner Wight this afternoon eX-
pressed himself in the matter by recon-
mending to his associates the adoption of
the following: THAT the board of District
Commissioners state, as its position in this
matter, that they are more desirous of Sc
curing for the citizens of the District the
erection and use of the library, than they
are that it should be placed at any par
ucular point. They are, therefore, entire
ly willing to accept any site that may be
agreed upon by a majority Of the citizens
and that will be satisfactory to Congress" "
Captain Beach. the District Engineer
Commissioner. said: Il have no personal
wishes in this matter of q site for the pub
lie library, and win be quite satisfied with
any which majority Of the people of the
District may select. The erection of the
library on Mount Vernon space would un-
doubtedly make it accessible to most of
the people, and conveniently SO. There
fore, II the people favor that site and Con-
sress Is agreeable, I am quite sure it will
meet With no opposition from the Comms-
sioners. If such a thing We're possible, |
would he inclined to favor vote on the
question by the people of the District"

Might Send the Oregon.

One resort that is open to the Navy De-
partment is to send the Oregon to the Sa-
moan Islands. She left Callao the 11th
instant, and should reach Honolulu about
the 9th OF February. She can be inter
cepted there with orders sent by the dis
patch boat lroquois now at San Francisco,
and could reach Apia in about eight DAYS
after receiving her orders. 1t is a rather
fortunate circumstance that the big battle
ship Iowa is due at San Francisco just
about the same date that the Oregon is
due at Honolulu, so that the Pacific coast
will not be left entirely without naval
force. 1t is true that the Iowa is in need
of repairs to her boilers and machinery,
but she is still perfectly serViceabie, and
these repairs may be deferred for some
time without injury to the ship.
Treaty Needs Qualification.
While the attention of the public has been
of late drawn from the Samoan Islands to
other more important subjects, it appears
that interesting events have been succeed
ing each other with rapidity in the islands
with which the United States, as one OF
the guardians of the native kingdom, is
deeply concerned. 1t has been realized for
a long time past that there was need for
d modification of the terms Of the tripartite
treaty by which we assumed this Joint
guardianship with England and Germany
But il has, up to this point, not been pos
Sible to get all three of the powers to agree
upon any one project. In President CleVe-
| lands administration the proposition was
made to Congress that the United States
should retire entirely from its part in the
management of the affairs of the island.
| This proposition was vigorously resisted by
majority in Congress, and failing, as al
ready stated, to secure an agreement for
modification of the treaty according to
the usual diplomatic forms, the officials of
the State Department have felt constrained
to insist upon the three powers living up
to the treaty as it stands. Negotiations
have been on foot for some time in reation
to the succession to the Samoan throne
and it is calculated to lead to ill-feeing. at
least, that the German officials should re-
sort to a coup deetat at this stage of the
negotiations.
Germany Responsible.
1t is believed that much of the RESPONSE
bility for this arbitrary action must rest
upon Raffel, the German president of the
munich al cou lcil al Apia, whose meddie-
some attitude of late has led to remon-
STRANGE on the part of the other powers
