CONSUL ROSE
Formal Objection to the In
stallation of MalietOa
Tanu as King.
THIS LOOKS SERIOUS
Great Britain and America Asked
by Germany to Restore the
Status Quo in Samoa.
Special Dispatch to The Call

NEW YORK, April 10
The Washington correspondent
of the Herald telegraphs: For
NAL objection to the installation
of Malietoa Tanu as King of Sa-
moa by the American and Brit
ish officials at Apia was regis
tered to-day at the State De-
partment by ambassador Won
Holleben.
Similar action is understood
to have been taken by the Ger
man ambassador in London.
The German Government
feels that in the enthronement Of
Malietoa Tanu the United States
and Great Britain have violated
the terms of the treaty of Berlin,
which enjoins the installation OF
either Mataafa or Malietoa
Tanu as King. The Washing
ton and London Governments
should have waited for the re-
port and findings of the commits
sion which is to be appointed to
investigate the entire Samoan
question.
Malietoa Tanu having been
installed, Germany thinks that
in justice to herself the two Gov
ernments should return the stu
alton in Samoa to that which ex-
listed prior to his installation. 1t
is not believed that the officials
propose to take any such action.
Germany has been informed,
however, that the United States
is quite willing that the commits
sion shall consider the Kingship
question, and this is the farthest
this Government will probably
go.
The German Government has
also objected to the course of
Rear Admiral Kautz in the mat
ter of the dissolution of the pro-
visional government and the
shelling of Mataafa's forces, and
is inclined to support Herr Rose.

inferred in California or in Massachu-

sirous that the ex-Justice be laid be-

ZONES OF

VERY Ill
Must Resign as Chairman Of
the Democratic National
Committee.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, April 10.-A Washing
ton special to the Herald says: Sena-
tor James K. Jones of Arkansas, chair
man Of the Democratic National Com
mittee, who has been i'll at his resi-
dence in Washington for the last two
months, is In such a serious condition
that it is impossible that he will be
able to take any active part IN the
work Of the committee again.
His heart is affected in such a way
that the least excitement is dangerous
for him, and his physician insists that
he shall be kept as quiet as possible.
1t is therefore probable that he will re-
sign before any of the active prelimin-
ary work of the campaign is under
taken.
If he does so his successor to serve
until the convention of the party in
1900 will be selected by the present Ma
tional Committee.

PARIS, April 1.-THE Figaro this
morning publishes the evidence given
before the Court of Cessation in the
Dreyfus case by General Gallifet, ex-
President Casimir- -Perier; General La
Roche, under whom Freystaetter serv-
ed in Madagascar; Professor Ocagne of
the Polytechnic School; Lonquety, the
witness referred to by General Roget
as having seen Dreyfus in Brussels;
Professor Painlove and NJ. Hadamard,
Dreyfus' cousin. General Gallifet said
he knew nothing about the confession
said to have been made by Dreyfus.
Only Darras, who was the commander
on the occasion of Dreyfus' degrada-
ton, went to General Gallifet that aft
ernoon to express his pain over the in
cident. He said that Dreyfus had never
ceased to protest his innocence. Gen
eral Gallifet did not know of the drum
rolling incident Asked his opinion re-
specting Colonel Picquart, General Gal
lifet replied: He served five years
under me and earned the profoundest
esteem of Generals Brault. Darras,
Bailloud and Millet He was loved and
respected. 1t was with the greatest
pleasure that 1 gave evidence in behalf
of Colonel Picquart."
General Zurlinden sent a message to
General Gallifet to say that his evil
dence had produced the best effect
General Zurlinden promised to ask for
the lightest disciplinary punishment in
consideration of Picquart's preliminary
punishment at Mont Valerien. Hence
the witness was astonished when Gen
eral Zurlinden month later inflicted
the heaviest punishment. General Gal
lifet was asked to intercede in Pic
quarts behalf, but formally refused to
do so, though, he added. he had never
withdrawn his affection for him. Gen
eral Gallifet declared that when it be-
came known that he was to give evil
dence he was solicited by the generals
not to appear. They were persuaded
that Esterhazy was innocent and Pic
quart guilty.
