GERMANY IN TROUBLE,
! Her Rule in Samoan Group Not Taken
As Kindly As Ours.

NEW YORK, May si,--A special TO
the Herald from Washington. says;
Unofficial adviees which have been re-
ceived by the authorities here indicate
that Germany is likely to experience
trouble in dealing with the natives OF
the islands Of upolo and Savaii. Of
the Samoan group.
Ma;aata, one OF the Samoan chiefs,
expected to be rewarded with the king
ship after German sovereignty had
been extended over the islands and is
very much disgruntled over his failure
to secure the prize he has been so
earnestly seeking. German officials
have been placed in charge OF the ISL
ands and the natives win be required
to bow to German laws and regula-
tons. Mataata and his people are said
to be very much exercised over the pol
icy their new government is pursuing
ana In some quarters no surprise will
be expressed II a revolt should occur.

WAITING ON THE
WATER COMMISSION
City Council Defers Action on
Street Lighting Matter.
NEW STREET IMPROVEMENTS
Orders Passed for New Work and the Ae.
esptaucs OF cOmpIetOus Licenses
Granted and Claims Allowed.

by a resolution passed at the last
meeting Of the council. the undersign-
"a committee was instructed to confer
with the honorable water commission
~ the city OF Astoria, in regard 10
furnishing the city with electric light
for the streets.
I'VE beg leave to report that We met
with the commission, which has taken
the proposition made under advise
ment and We have not received any
definite answer so far"
A. sCHERNECKAU.
A. BRIX,
E. P. PARKER.
The report of the ways and means
committee Of the city council gives the
only reason why the council took no
definite action at its regular meeting
last night 1t was the concensus OF
opinion among the members that, in
asmuch as the water commission is
now seriously considering putting in
an electric plant to be owned and
operated by the city, the council was
not in a position to take any def
mite action in the matter until the
position Of the water commission on
this question had been fully deter
mined.
Councilman Cook, however, put in
his usual lick in support of lights
at any cost despite the understanding
between the members that nothing
should be done at this juncture. Cook
had "a hot potato" in his pocket. He
started out by saying that, In his
opinion, something should be done to
light up the streets. Upon this start
ling statement several members shift
ed in their chairs while one or two
coughed audibly Adjusting his vest
with much precision and shifting from
one foot-which had grown tired-to
the other, Councilman Cook continued
by saying that visitors were coming
to town and that darkness would be
bad all round. Cook then proposed
that, as a matter Of compromise, the
city dispense with three arc lights
one at the corner occupied by Fish
er's opera house, one on Eleventh
street, and one on Twelfth street, at
some points not specifically named.
IF the water commission intends do
ing anything at all in this matter"
observed Cook. 1T cannot be induced
to do so by the use of force. They
want to find public ownership to be
a paying proposition before they will
undertake it,"
Councilman Cook then assumed an
air of suspicion and with mighty en-
phasis declared that there seemed to
be a"nigger in the fence" But" said
he. Il don't know just where he is"
After all of which, Cook took upon
the demeanor of great deliberation,
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1900-05-22

which was followed in due course OF
time by his precipitating the follow
ing motion: Il move that the number
OF lights be cut down three" With
out waiting for second. Cook contin-
ued with the explanation that he had
tried to get the West Shore Mills
Company TO give to the city without
cost the three lights in question" that
he did not know IL the company would
consent or not" but he was doing
the best he could to induce the light
ing company to do So"
The potato once more began to burn
and Cook said that "there was no
question that a majority OF the eiti-
zens We're in favor"
Move we adjourn Councilman
Goddard shouted. with an impatient
shuttle.
Brix seconded the motion. but
Scherneckau, who had not heard
Brix's second. took the floor and de-
clared that he desired to contradict
some Of the statements made by Cook.
The majority OF the people Of AS

streets go dark for awhile rather than
submit to-"
Mr.. Chairman. want to remind
you that there is a motion before this
body and want to see that disposed

who spoke. Mayor Bergman agreed.
Scherneckau persisted. but Utzinger
insisted. and the motion to adjourn
was carried.
Before the lighting matter was
brought up, the council succeeded in
disposing of considerable general bust
ness.
