New Zealand's Mandate for Samoa
New Zealand, in accepting the man
date fol- Samoa, has accepted it in the
spirit indicated by the Honorable E.
P. Lee, who said after visiting Samoa:
New Zealand has come into Samoa
to govern the islands primarily in the
interests of the Samoan people, and in
doing so, it must naturally expect to
incur the resentment of certain private
interests. This hostility Of trading and
planting interests to Government and
missionary activities is one of the out
standing features of Pacific history"
The principal trouble which the New
Zealand administration has had in its
mandate carried on with the above
principle in mind seems to have been
with the white residents who are in
terested in the liquor traffic. The New
Zealand Parliament passed the Samoan
Act in which Prohibition was con-
firmed for Samoa, while the Samoans
say that New Zealand has banned liq-
uor for the Islands while retaining ii
for New Zealand. The Samoans do not
seem to realize that the natives III
King Country, New Zealand, have
been subject to Prohibition in the in
terest of the resident natives, and that
white settlers and visitors in that area
are compelled to obey the law.
The Bahamas
The report for the Bahama Islands
states that ''the colony has become a
vertable rendezvous for Americans
seeking relaxation from the Prohibi
ton laws. The revenue obtained
from large stocks OF whisky and other
alcoholic liquors imported into Nassau
has enabled the Government to wipe
out, in two years, public debt of
10000 pounds and at the same time
to make provision for Improvements
that were long overdue ..
"The Grand Bahama, which is with
in easy reach of Florida, is to be de-
veloped into a. great centre for Ameri-
can sportsmen. Hotels are to be
erected, race track laid out, and it
is said that the company which has
/ been formed to introduce various
forms of sport in this section of the
{ colony aims at creating Monte Carlo
in the West Indies.

The FIuke Season Is Now Upon Us.
Reports from the bays and arms Of the

Great South Bay are. If anything. above

but, plentiful for the last two three sea-
sons on the outside grounds. and the fish

this scarcity to the fact that the beam trawl-
ers were continually at work on the fluke
grounds. 1t was claimed generally that the
fish taken by the trawlers were not fac

followed the fishing game carefully were
quite decided In their statements as to the
harm done by the trawler to the' spawning

from Abe Attell II Kilbane was cham
pion of the world. then Attell must have
held that title also. The featherw eight
title under Queensberry rules descended
from Dixon TO McGovern to Corbett.
Dixon won the featherweight honors
from Cal Mccarthy. and after Little
Chocolate had defeated Abe Willis OF
Australia a claim of a worlds cham
pion was made for Dixon. That claim
was wiped out. however when Dixon
was thoroughly trimmed In this city By
Ben Jordan. the champion featherweight
Of England.
1t therefore becomes evident that
neither Dixon. McGovern nor Coroett
held the worlds title OF the featherweight
class In addition the American title
was void and open to competition when
Corbett left the featherweight class and
jumped into the lightweight division.
At this point Attell laid claim to the
American title and hung TO il till Kill
bane won it on a close decision on points
in twenty rounds. During the time
AtteIl was champion he met Jim Drs-
coll, featherweight champion of England
and Europe. IN ten round decis!oniess
bout in what is now the Pioneer 5. G.
The contest lasted the limit and Driscoll
got the popular decision. AS there was
no official verdict by the referee Driscoll
gained only the prestige due to showing
superiority over the American champion.
Duriug the ten years kilbane has held
title he never has met a foreign title
holder in the ring. much less defeated
one.
For that reason Dundee or Frush will
be known merely as the featherweight
champion of America.

All Navy Football Men
Assigned to Same Ship
Squad Has Chance for Prac-
tice During Cruise.

Special Dispatch TO THE New YORK HERALD.
ANNAPOLIS, June 24.-Owing to GER
tain special conditions football is a more
lively subject al the Naval Academy dur
ing the summer than any other collegiate
institution. with the probable exception
OF the Military Academy. Owing to this
fact there is already much interest in the
sport here. and it Is practicable to do a
good deal in preparation for the coming
season.
Most important of these special condi-
tions are the facts that the old players
are kept together during the summer
and find time and opportunity for some
practice and that new class Is being
assembled during the summer. the MEM
bers of which are eligible for the varsity
eleven and in many cases actually do
make place on the team during the
first year.
This year the practice of several years
past has been followed and the old var
sity players and substitutes, together
with promising players from the junior
squads, have been assigned to the same
ship during the summer practice cruise.
and an old football player, now an Of
ficer. has been designated to look out
for them. The players are assembled
for talks at intervals and get some OPP
portunity for shore practice. AS the end
of the cruise approaches the players be-
gin to get into condition.
The cruise itself. however. is a real
conditioning course. The midshipmen
coal ship and do all kinds of hard work.
at the same time living under the most
healthfu and inspiring conditions. II Is
the rule for them to reach Annapolis
toward the end of August in the finest
possible trim, and in this they get the
jump on most of their opponents in spite
of early practice.
Even now the promising material In
the new class Is being picked. These
youths will have a process of rowing,
settings up and other fine developing
work during the summer and will start
actual football practice just as soon as
the weather makes 1t bearable. In this
the academy has great advantage over
other institutions. and Il Is probable
that a good sized detachment will be
ready t. join the varsity squad when
Il returns to Annapolis.
The Naval Academy anticipates one
of its finest seasons and expects a strong
team in spite of serious losses by gradu-
alton.
The members of the new class will be
assembled for practice about August 20.
while the old squad men will return to
Annapolis about September Is. nearly
two weeks in advance Of the opening OF
the academic year.
Bob Folwell again will be at the helm,
and his staff of assistant coaches is be-
ing selected All will be former Naval
Academy players.
