- SAMOANS OPPOSE | NEW ZEALAND RULE Natives Refuse to Obey Or- ders of Administrator to Appear in Court. By the Associated Press. APIA, Western S8amoa, January 13— The resentment of Samoans against government by New Zealand continued to smolder yesterday as natives re- fused to obey orders of Col. S. S. Allen, the administrator. ‘Twenty Samoans, accused of partici- pating in the riot of December 28, which caused the death of eight natives and one white constable, refused to obey the order of the administrator, to appear in court and were spirited away into the hills to avoid arrest. With them wenf many adherents of the Mau (native league of Samoans). Native villages near Apia are deserted. Hearings at the inquest into the death of High Chief Abraham Tamasese and seven other Samoans, who were killed in fighting December 28, de- veloped testimony that the rioting was precipitated by Samoan demonstrations on the return of Alfred G. Smyth, after being banished two years for encourag- ing the Mau to resist New Zealand officials. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. ‘TODAY. Representative Albert R.

It is this quality of fanaticism in every period of history which has hurt the best influ- ence of reason and of religion.” By the Assoclated Press. BOSTON, January 13.—Willlam Car- dinal O'Connell severely denounced po- litical Christianity at a service in Holy Cross Cathedral here yesterday. He was commenting upon statements that the churches today are empty. “Christ gave the commission to His church to teach, to influence by word and example in His spirit of gentleness and moderation,” the cardinal said, “and we see those who claim to act in His name demanding the most cruel }:untshmenc for offenses which are not forbidden by God's law, but against a doubtful human ordinance. “When the churches are turned into political factions; when, instead of sav- “National.
