MORE TROUBLE IN SAMOA
GERMAN GOVERNMENT UNPOPU-
LAR WITH NATIVES.
Many of Them are Leaving Samoa for
the Fiji Islands-Monument to Heroes
Unveiled.

Advces from Samoa by the Marlposa
are to the effect that the Germans are
not proving such popular governors as
the natives expected and as a result
there has been trouble brewing around
Apia for some months owing to what
the natives consider the harsh method
of governing the latter have all but re-
volted and already there has been a
large exodus from the island of Samoa.
Most of the immigrants have gone to
the Fiji Islands. Mataafa who was
created chief has done his utmost to
reconcile the natives to the new form Of
government but his efforts have not
proved successful. No less than seven
ty of them were put into prison recently
for trivial offences and have since been
forced to repair the roads.
The American and British settlements
are progressing favorably and little If
any trouble has occurred at either of
these places. 1t was found necessary
to abandon work on our proposed gov
eminent pier at Paga Page because it
was found that the foundations had not
been solidly built. The work on the coal
sheds is progressing rapidly.
There is still much feeling against
the Germans by Americans and British
in the Samoan islands for 1t is claimed
that the Germans were to blame for
the outbreak last year which resulted
in the ambuscading of the Joint forces.
One of the sailors who came up from
there on the Mariposo said that il was
openly charged by the American naval
officers that the Germans had signalled
from their ships to the natives to ac-
quaint old Mataafa with the movements
of the Americans and British and when
Lansdale and the other men went out
it was about to certain death.
The Samoan Weekly Herald Of July
%, says: /
I'VE understand that the constant en-
deavors of the government to re-unite
the rival parties are likely to come to
satisfactory end. Mataafa, who, him
self from the beginning has always
been strongly in favor of a combination
of the two parties in the government
at Mulinuu, has succeeded in persuad-
ing the influential chiefs of his side
that it is just and advisable to grant
distinguished appointment to Tama-
sese. The letter written by the Cover
nor to Tamasese assigning to him the
appointment of Taimua was widely
read in native circles and was received
as a token of the sincere wish of the
! government to be impartial and give
each party it's share in the administra-
ton. 1t is, we believe, the intention
of the government to confine the mean
! ing of the word Taimua to chiefs of
royal blood: the two royal families of
| Samoa will have an equal share of the
! Taimua title; of the Tupua family the
! Governor has chosen Tamasese, TUT
malealiifano and Galumalemana. The
Malietoa family have, surviving, only
| the great chief Faalata and the late
! King of STANDARDIZATION Tanumafili,
who is now in Fiji and who after his
return to Samoa, will also take part
in the native administration"

ballast and STEVEDORES
COMPETITION FOR WATER FRONT
BUSINESS.
Local Stevedore Firm Reaching Out for
San Francisco Work-A New Ballast
Firm at Work.

Hot competition has suddenly devel-
oped in the ballast-supplying business
on the water front. Harry Evans COM
pany, which has been doing all the
business up to this time, has a COM
petitor in the company started by Rex.
Hitchcock and Frank Wilburton, who
bought the rock business of r. NJ. Dun
can. Duncan was formerly in with
Evans and sold out to him.
Both concerns are close after the
captains in port to get contracts for
supplying ballast, which is needed by
many vessels here. All vessels leaving
Honolulu except the sugar fleet go
away with rocks in their hold and the
business of furnishing the rock, at a
dollar or more ton, is an extensive
one.
The steVedore business, which has al
so been done by one firm for some time,
is said to be about to be the subject
of strong competition too. There We're
several companies up to few months
ago, when a combination was formed.
Frank WilburtOn, who was in the COM
bine, has left the concern and is one of
those who are said to be organizing a
new firm.
The firm of Renney, McCabe and
Hamilton does all the Honolulu bust
ness at present, as well as lot of the
business at Portland and Seattle. The
three ports are worked together by the
company, which has a strong hold at
each place.
The local firm is about to reach out
for San Francisco business. Captain
Renney is now on the coast, having
gone to establish a San Francisco
branch of the company. With offices in
Honolulu, San Francisco, Portland and
Seattle, the company will be in a posi-
ton to make contracts covering at both
ends most of the vessels that come to
