A telephone message from Camp
Mckinley last evening reported that
the Kapuhulu road was covered with
water as far as could be seen in the
direction of Waialae. The depth varied
but 1t was sufficient TO render travel
impossible for some distance. The
Engineer garrison site was under water
and all were much incosvenienced.
Later it was learned that Kapiolanl

party from town drove out 10 inves-
tigate. They succeeded with difficulty
in making their way to the race track
as there was water all over.
In the open space of the race track
the water was all of three feet deep.
The track itself which is elevated
| somewhat, was under water, excepting
at the first turn.
In the racing paddocks there vera
about thirty head Of horses. These
were all brought away, most OF them
to town. There was "A regular food
scene with the oats and sacks and hay
and all kinds of sundries floating
around in the water.
The food seemed to confine itself
more to the track and vicinity than
any place else. The premises OF II. j.
Nolte and Cecil Brown and others
were untouched.
The rising OF the water was caused
| by heavy rains in Manoa and Palols
valleys. There Is a clear sweep for
water from that section and an I'M
usually heavy downfall Is likely 10
cause more or less of a flood.
There was not much damage. The
race course will need some extra at

feet.

A RECALL ASKED

United States.
CHAMBERS LETTER A CAUSE
Complaint ana Argument From
German Sources - Justice
and the Treaty.

BERLIN. Feb. 25.--The United states
Embassador, Andrew y. White, has
had several protracted conferences
tins week with Baron Won Richtefcn.
Under Secretary OF the Foreign Office,
on the subject OF the recent troubles
In Samoa and has received IA number
of documents In support of Germany's
views OF the situation. The interviews
were of the most friendly character.
An official, in behalf of Baron Won
Bullow. the German Minister OF For
eign Affairs. tells the correspondent
here of the Associated Press that the
German ambassador at Washington,
DR.. won Holleben. mas represented to
the United States. informally and in a
friendly manner, the ACCESSIBILITY OF
the recall OF William Chambers, the
Chief Justice Of Samoa. The German
Government is of the opinion that Mr.,
Chambers, since the publication Of the
letter TO his brother, which appeared
in the newspapers OF uhe United states.
is an improper person TO represent
the three governments in Samoa
It is further said that he was put
there in order to represent the protect
ing powers, and for him 10 criticise one
of these powers makes him manifest
ly unfit TO serve any longer in his pres
ent capacity" II is only necessary, it
| is pointed out, TO reverse the case In
order to show this strikingly to Ameri-
cans.
Let us suppose, said the German
official, referring TO the above, "that
such a letter had been written by Herr
Rose, the German Consul at Apia.
woulu not the entire American press
point out that Il was fragrant proof Of
Herr Roses unfitness TO any longer
hold his placer"
Mr.. Chambers letter has greatly stir
red up public feeling in Germany and
nearly the entire press asserts that.
by the letter, Mr.. Chambers has "glar-
ingly manifested his Unfitness for his
position"
| Some of the papers declare that in
asmuch as Germany, the United States
and Great Britain have declared their
intention 10 maintain the basis OF
Samoa intact, while Mr.. Chambers, by
his acts and words, has put himself
outside the act, he can no longer be
considered proper mandatory of the
signatory powers.
The same Foreign Office official
speaking OF the Philippine Islands
said Germany only wishes the re-
establishment Of the orderly conditions
and this solely on account of our com
mercial interests in the ISLANDS"

TnE VOLUNTEERS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25-sccreiary
Alger visited the senate to-day for the
purpose of getting the compromise Ar
my bill amended ~ as to authorize the
re-cnl.stmen; OF the YOUNGER soldiers
now serving in the Philippines. When
the peace treaty takes effect the term OF
service OF the volunteers will expire
and necessarily there will be an interim
before new troops can be enlisted and
transported to the Islands. The Secre-
tary thinks many OF the volunteers
would be willing TO remain during the
interim, and the amendment he pro-
poses grants authority to give them
tins opportunity. The Senate Commit
tee on Military Affairs has significd fits
willingness TO accept the amendment.

for the Measure.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 25.-The bill
for the reorganization of the army and
It's increase to 100000 men was pro-
crossing swimmingly in the Senate late
this afternoon, when Senator German
knocked all calculations into air by a
speech which he made, and when the
Senate adjourned this evening Senator
Hawley admitted to your correspond
ent that the outlook was bad and that
an extra session might have to be
called after all.
IF We can only get vote said Mr..
Hawley, I'VE can pass the bill, but ]
fear We may not get a vote.
Senator German is trimming himself
up for the Presidency. He fought the
treaty OF peace with that end in view,
and so well did he carry on that fight
that he whipped the practically sold
Democratic vote in the Senate around
to his side. leaving Bryan, who adyo-
Gated the ratification OF the treaty, in
the lurch.
Now German opposes the permanent
standing army as a part of his presi-
dental nomination plans. The bill
now before the Senate in general
way provides for an army of 100000
men until July 1901. when II may lie re-
duced by act OF Congress or by the
President.
That Is the point OF the German
fight. This afternoon he asked Sen
ator Hawley to accept an amendment
providing that on July !, 1901. the
terms of enlistment of all but regular
army men shall expire, and that all
Others shall be mustered out. His
amendment also proposed that all reg
ular army men promoted 10 higher
rank in this temporary volunteer army
should be reduced TO their present rank
on July I, 1901. thereby putting the en-
tire army down to the present peace
basis.
Senator Hawley refused to accept
that amendment. Then German began
his fight He accused the War Depart
ment of incompetency, which nobody
denied or will deny. He accused Pres
ident Mckinley of seeking to get a
large permanent standing army by
subterfuge. He accused the President
OF being afraid TO trust the next Con-
gress with increasing the army. He
said that when the scheme should be
fully understood the country would be
amazed, and he served notice that 70
long as his voice was heard in the Sen.
ate chamber IL would oppose this bill
That notice was taken as meaning
that German intends to filibusteI
against the army bill during the re-
naming five and a half days of the
present session of Congress. II hf
sticks to his determination there will
be an extra session.
Senator White said tonight that il
looked bad for the bill. and severa
other Senators expressed the same
opinion.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 25.-The House
continued work on the Army appro'
priation bill today, but failed to com
plete 1t. Considerable animOsity was
