THE SAMOAN GROUP.
Census of the Population Under United
 States Government Is $500.

Tutuila. Samoa, March H.-via San Francisco, April 11.-A census of the pop ulation of the Samoan group has been taken. The number of Samoans in Upolu and other islands under the German gov ernment is S2.ooo, while the population of the six islands under the United States government is returned at $500. The very slight increase during the last thirty years is about the same in proportion all round. The infant mortality Is greatest and this is due in large measure to the ignorance and carelessness in dieting the young. It is only since the United States took possession that people have been able to receive medical advice and treat ment With the sanitary laws now in force and the laws concerning the health of the people generally. throughout the island, it is hoped that during the next decade there will be considerable in crease of the native population.
 Gov B. F. Tiliey returned from New Zealand on the Abaranda on March A. The natives showed their delight at the Governors return by giving a number of feasts in his honor. MagesteriaI returns from all justices have been sent in to the high court of all cases tried by mag istrates up to the end of last month. The reports indicated great improvement together with the regular reports of the native governors and other officials are carefully prepared and are models of neatness The native officers are not lack ing altogether in education, but there is good opportunity for the United States to assist them in their desire to obtain greater knowledge.

GREAT INTEREST
 IN MAY FESTIVAL
Sale of Seats to Guarantors Be- gins Tomorrow
MANY ORDERS ALREADY IN
Sale of Tickets to the General Public Will Begin on Monday-The lo- cal Chorus Is Doing Excel.
 lent Work.

The management of the May Festival concerts are in receipt of many commu- nications from outside cities inquiring as to sale of seats etc. Interest in the forth coming engagement of the Theodore Thomas orchestra for the two concerts on April 30 and May 1 is unmistakably widespread and genuine.
 The guarantors can buy tickets and have them reserved at Parker's drug store on First avenue tomorrow. The general public will be admitted to sale and reservation of tickets at the same place. commencing with Monday. The price is s1.
 The guarantors are going to be liberal patrons of the coming event. MT. Mum ger has ordered fifty tickets for his use and numerous guarantors have sent in orders for twenty and thirty. It is very evident that the guarantors will form a conspicuously large portion of the au- dience.
 Thomas orchestra, already the best in the world, appears to be in better form than ever. Here Is what the New York Herald says of a recent performances:
 
 superior to the organization that was with him on his former visit. It may and it may not be the same body of men. One thing is sure, however. the strings now give forth a richer and more homogene- ous tone, while the wood-winds could scarcely be improved upon. The perform anct of the Beethoven symphony and the symphonic poem, Don Juan," by Rich ard Strauss must have satisfied the most exacting listener"
 The local chorus is doing excellent work and has quite enthused Mir. Guckenberger with the accuracy and delicacy of phras- ing displayed. The woman's chorus, "The Rose of Abontown," will be an especially fetching number.
 It Is a race between the Elks' Street Fair and the May Festival as to which will be the greater success. Both will be successes and each will be superb. The week of April 2s to May bids fair to see such gathering of outside Alabama as has never been in Birmingham before.

DECORATIONS
Distributed By Italy To French Min
 lsters and Officers.

Toulon, April 11.-In behalf of the King of Italy the Duke of Genoa today distrib- uted a number of decorations to the French ministers military. naval and civil officers President Loubet spent the early part of the day in making tour of the hospitals, and afterwards received at the town hall delegations from the Toulon societies. He also distributed med als to workmen who had been thirty years in the same employ. At noon President Loubet boarded the Lepanto, the Italian flagship, and lunched with the Duke of Genoa. The latter, in toasting. the chief executive of France, said
 Permit me, MT. President, to express to you my acknowledgement of the very cordial and sympathetic welcome accord ed by France to myself, and to the squad ron under my command. I shall retain an unalterabiy happy recollection of the magnificent reception. I drink to France and to her armies on land and sea, and I also desire to express my high regard for yourself personally"
 Before he resumed his seat the duke touched glasses with President Loubet, and the two warmly c1asped hands. Pres ident Loubet replied:
 "Monsigneur. I am profoundly moved by the friendship you have just expressed for the French Republic and It's Presi- dent and by the sympathy which you show its army and navy. It is unneces- sary to repeat to you what are the feel ings of the French nation toward Italy. You already know them and have de- scribed them to you. But l wish once more to assure you that we are profound ly touched by the evidence of friendship from His Majesty, the King of Italy"
 While on board Le Panto, M. Loubet discussed with the Duke of Genoa the in- crease and perfection of modern arma- ments, remarking that 1t would be terrible responsibility to provoke war The Duke of Genoa replied;
 You are right, and l think such visits as these are calculated to render the re- lations between nations more cordial"
 M. Loubet and M. Delcasse spent half an hour on board the submarine boat Gustave Zede. and part of the time was going through evolutions submerged The President also visited the Russian battleship Czarevitch and the Russian armored cruiser Bayan. bestowing com memberships in the Legion of Honor upon their captains.

BRITISH REFUSE
 AMERICAN MEATS
Chicago Packers Appeal to Gov arnmentfor Assistance New
 Orleans Incident Cause

Washington, April 1.-The Department from a prominent packing company of Chicago announcing that they have just been advised that the English govern ment has, excluded all beef except home bred from the army contracts. This, 1t Is stated, Is to be effective June l next.
 The Chicago concern has asked the Ag- ricuiturai Department for any assistance it can render. It has pointed out that the action of the British government Is . severe blow to American beef and cat tie exporters and producers, and means not alone the loss in government trade. but 1t Is feared it will serve very ma teriaily toward melting A prejudice on the part of Great Britain against the beef and cattle of this country.
 No official information of thls reported contemplated move has reached the de- partment. according to statements of of- flcials this evening. Steps have been taken, however. looking to acquiring whatever information it Is possible to get. To demonstrate the importance, of the move now said to be contemplated, 1t Is pointed out that the value of our exports of live animals to Great Britain amounts to s40.000,00 while the total of animal products exported from the United States to Great Britain is stated to be- in round numbers, s2o0, 900, 900. It is pointed out here that this proposed embargo may really be a sequel. In greater or less degree, to the proceeding instituted at New Orleans against the shipment of horses and mules from that port for use in the South Af- rican campaign. While this is. of course, merely conjectural. 1t Is very strongly hinted that the New Orleans incident probably Is the direct inspiration for the step. It is pointed out that if the English really decided to take the action reported in the advices just received. the British might turn to Australia for their meats. It is claimed. however. that mats cannot be gotten there in as good quality nor as cheap as in the United States.

theless it is right and proper. Those that have the protection of the State should bear their share of It's burdens.
 .I have always believed in an income tax and have thought that the decision of our Supreme Court against the eonsti- nationality of such tax was one or the most unfortunate occurrences or tne age We should have a tax on all incomes, large or small, exempting moderate amount, as most of the states exempt a certain amount of property from execu- tion and levy This country IS so rich that with affair system of taxation and economy in expenditures the tax rate VIII be so low that 1t will not be oppressive. and thus you will encourage and protect your small property holders

 MT. Hildreth, who Is member of U. s. Grant Post No. 2S, Grand Army of the Re- public, Is spending several weeks vaca- tion at Hot Springs. Ark. Before his de- parture, however. he communicated to Col. R. B. Snowden of Memphis. and T. B. Neal of Atlanta, Ga.. his desire to restore the sabre to the officer from whom 1t was taken, and inquiry has been set on foot among former Confeder- ate officers to trace the owner.

CHICAGO PACKERS
Wire To Washington Concerning Eng
 lands Action.

Chicago, April n.-Swift & Go. was the packing firm referred to as having wired the Agricultural Department regarding the reported action of the British govern ment excluding all but home-bred beef from army contracts. MT. A. H. Vree- der, general counsel for Swift & Co.,. said their London representative had cabled to the above effect and they had immedi- ately advised the department at Wash ington. They had also cabled London for further information. Mir Vreeder was inclined to doubt that definite action had been taken by the British government. He expected further information tonight.
