Berlin, April EFT is announced
here today that President Mckinley
received the German Ambassador, DR..
Won Hollehen, yesterday, expressed
his disapproval of the remarks attri-
buted to Captain Coghlan, of the
United States cruiser Raleigh, at a re-

friendly sentiments.
The following statements are made
on authority:
"Respecting Captain Coghlan's case,
no correspondence has been exchang-
ed between the United States En-
bassy and the German Government,
and the incident is considered closed
so far as Germany is concerned.
Regarding Samoa, the dispatches

relations existing between the Ger

the other powers have been we'll re-
ceiyed, though they will doubtless
cause some annoyance to the sensa-

stir warlike feelings, by representing
Admiral Kautz as a rough, overbear-
ing boor. The general feelings is of
confidence in the newly appointed
commission. and the Foreign Office. as
well as the American and British En-
hassies express satisfaction at the fact
that they can now have time to de-
vote to other questions"

Dana on the left, Gaunt in the center,
with 120 men from Fuamasanga on the
right. Gaunt's party delivered such a
heavy fire that the rebels retreated to a
second and stronger fort about 80
yards back The Euamasanga friendlies
bolted, but Gaunt crawled out to the
firing line and drove them back at the
point of his revolver. They then ad-
yanced to attack the second fort, but
found the position too strong and lost
several men killed and wounded.
The shells from the ships burst
close behind the rebel lines, and the
rebels sang a war song after the ex-
plosion of each shell.
Gaunt again returned to the attack,
and heavy and continuous firing on
both sides followed, during which the
attackers suffered further losses.
Gaunt succeeded in crawling to
within fifty yards of the fort, but
found it too strong to capture, as the
friendlies' support was unreliable.
The party then retired in good order,
with four men killed and Is wounded
of which number three were mortally
hurt. The rebel loss was not ascer-
tanned, but was probably small.
The Tauranga and Porpoise shelled
the position at sundown, but the re-
suit of the firing is not known.
Gaunt's brigade and portion OF
the friendly support stood the fire
splendidly.
During the engagement Gaunt sue
ceeded in capturing German flag
which was flying over the first fort.
The British Consul, Mr.. +. B. S.

the following inscription:

Then followed the review of the SIX

by two companies of sailors from the
cruiser Raleigh, in command of Lieu

turned to the hotel. On the return trip
