THE PAGO PAGO STATIO Special Samoan Dispatch copyrighted, 1894, by the Associated Press. AUCKLAND, N.Z., March 30.—The steam- Ship Alameda, from Samoa, brings news jof a mcst serious outbreak in those islands, jwWhich would seem to irdicate that the United States, Great Pritain and Germany wouid be called upon to take prompt action. According to the reports brought here by the Alameda the outbreak was caused by the action of Mr. Henry Ide, the American chief justice, who succeeded Chief Justice Cederscrantz on Septen ber 6, 1892. Chief Justice Ide is charged with fining and throwing into jail the chiefs of the rival factions in Samoa, and with com- pelling them to work on the roads like con- victs of the lowest order. ‘The natives protested strongly and made appears to have disregurded the menacing attitude assumed by the Samoan malcon- teats, and «ventually the latter broke out into armed rebellion against the king, who sustains the chief justice. Of course, in the statements made against Chief Justice Ide, the fact must not be lost sight of Yhat they prcebably emanate from people who are possibly opposed to the American representatives, and it is believed here that when the affair has been thor- oughly sifted it will be found that the action of Chief Justice Ide has not been as severe as his enemies assert. Senator Morgan on the Tripartite Agreement. Copies of the dispatch bringing the news and details of the revolution in the Samoan Islands were distributed among Senator: who were at the Capitol today and were read with much interest. Opinion was gen- eral that the complications growing out of the tripartite government of the islands might lead to serious trouble. Senator Morgan, chairman of the commit- tee on foreign relations, was interested but | hot surprised at the news, which he at- tributed, in the absence of ‘direct informa- tion, to the influence of three powers—the United States, Great Britain and Germany ~—which under the Berlin treaty virtually control Samoan affairs. “King Malietoa,” said the Senator, “is, of course, merely a puppet, and while he is nominally king his power is necessarily limited by the superior intelligence of the Americans and Europeans, who, under the | terms of the tripartite agreement, control the affairs of the island. 1 have always | | looked upon this agreement as mischiev- |ous. It is as difficult to maintain harmony | between three nations situated as are the United States, England and Germany in Samoa as it would be between three women locked in the same room. Jealousy and contention were inevitable. Believing this I have always advised that the agree- ment be terminated, as it can be under the terms of the treaty upon notice from either party to it.” Senator Morgan said further that steps should be taken to imprové and hold secure our interests in Pago-Pago harbor. This harbor he considered of vital importance to the interests of the United States. He declined to discuss the proper immediate course for the United States to pursue. Senator Frye declined to discuss the situ- ation, but talked freely of the antecedent proceedings between the United States, Great Britain and Germany, which led to the present control of the islands. Senator Frye attaches considerable im- portance to holding Pago-Pago coaling sta- tion and in having the people of the is- lands friendly. —— CONTROLLER ECKELS Gives His Views Upon the President's Veto Message. Mr. J. H. Eckels, the controller of the currency, in speaking of the veto of the seigniorage bill, said: “The message can- Pot but impress the people with the abso- lute fairness of the President in dealing with the financial affairs of the country. It is candid in expression and patriotic in tone, and will do much toward drawing the attention of the individual members of the democratic party, who have been indulging in financial vagaries, to the weakness of them. It will also cause an earnest in- quiry on their part as to whether or not the leaders who have been proclaiming such heresies are equally sincere in their position as is the President. “The President recognizes and forcibly states the evil of again precipitating the country upon another period of financial | distrust and unrest, when the country is in a period of convalescence, and in ro do- ing draws attention to the very important fact, too frequently overlooked, that in financial legislation the United States can rot legislate for itself, but must take into consideration the relations which our finan- cial interests bear to those of other coun- tries, and the necessity of preventing not only ‘loss and discouragement to our peo- ple at home,’ but equally ‘the destruction of confidence in our financial management abroad.’ “It is idle to expect that the country can escape financial disturbance if there is sud- denly injected into our monetary system a | large volume of depreciated silver coin, without, at the same time, providing an an- tidote by increasing the gold reserve. And his can only be done satisfactorily in the suggested by the President. “Outside of the technical objections to the Bland bill, arising from the difficulues of properly construing it, it is so faulty in 4c principle that the strongest friends of it | could scarcely have grounls to believe tha’ the President could do otherwise than veto it. His action aas not proceeded from any enmity to the use of silver as money, but entirely through his purpose to mairtain the public credit, and all must concede that the public credit is more to be con- served than any party's political interest. “Speaking from a party standpoint, i do not believe his vero will injure the democratic party e.ther presently or in the future, but, on the cther hand, will strengthen ‘t with those who really form and control public cpinion on every im- portant public question. The President has always commanded the respect 1 support of the mass of the people because of the soundnes? his views on economic questions, and this last act will sull furtt strengthen him with them.” ~— Se — FOR AGED AND INFIRM. The Bill to Provide a Home for De- crepid Colored People. Mr. J. L. White, agent for the Home for Aged and Infirm Cotored People of the Dis- trict, appeared before the House commit- tee on mtary affairs this morning, to urge a favorable report on a substitute for the Meredith bill, to aid in the erection of a nome for aged ‘and infirm colored people. The substitute bill provides that one-balf of the money in the United States treasury arising from unclaimed arrears of pay and bounty due colored soldiers of the civil wa: | which was in the hands of the freedmen's bureau, and which has accumulated to the j extent of $500,000, be used for the erection jof a home. Mr. White said the association i has selected a ite nea> Hillsdale, and is organized to carry out the charitabe pur- poses of the bill. There are $0,000 colored people in this District, he said, and there is no adequate provision for the care of the aged and infirm. Mr. White made an earnest plea for the bill, claiming that the fund is tue the es- are precedents for the use of funds of this character. A subcommittee, of which Mr. Outhwaite is chairman, will take the matter under consideration. ——_-e-______ Inspectors Appointed. Frank Shipley of Maryland and N. C.

The bill prohibiting pool selling at Arling- ton, a subury of Baltimore, which has been strenuously advocated by leading citizens of Maryland, was defeated in the house yes- |terday. Immediately following the vote | killing the measure Senator Hubber of Bal- |tim@re county introduced a bill similar in character to the original one, and wl 4 ‘suspension of the rules the matter was given a second reading. |. The senate at night passed the bill. The bill has been voted down in the house twice, but its friends have hope of its final success now.
