FURTHER FIGHTING EXPECTED IN SAMOA MALIETOA TANU, KING OF SAMOA ’omoowwm«mo¢¢44¢! The Call was the first $ paper in the world to give the news of the revolution in Samoa. This news was pub- lished exclusively in The Call on Wednesday, January 18, having been' cabled at great expense from Auckland upon arrival tliere of the steamship Alameda from Apia. In brief, this cablegram'stated that on December 31 Chief . Justice Chambers had decided in favor of Malietoa Tanu; that on January 1 5000 of Mata- afa’s followers™ arpse. in re- bellion and defeated: 2000 ‘of Malietoa’s men, ambushing them and killing thirteen na- tives and wounding' many; that the rebels were encour- aged 'by the German repre- sentatives; that the United States and British Consuls had joined in forming a pro- visional government for the islands pending action by the powers signatory to the Ber- lin treaty, and that marines " had been landed from the British warship Porpoise to protect foreigners and guard the mission as a refuge for Malietoa. Some additional details of the trouble are given in the appended correspondence.

APIA, Samoa, Jan. 25.—Civil war has again broken out in Samoa, and at the present time the. rebels against the King are.in full pogsession of the coun- try and the municipality of Apia. Ma- - lletoa, the late King, died on August 22 of last year, and there immediately came forward several aspirants for the throne. The chief of these were Ta- numafili, the son of the late King, Ta- masese, -the. high chief, who, a few years back, was at the head of a re- belllon never put down, and Mataafa, who is at present de facto King of Samoa. 5 On December 31 the Chief Justice gave his decision in writing under sec- tion 6, ‘article 3, of the Berlin:treaty. 1t 'was decided that Matdafa was not rightfully elected, ‘and is ineligible for the office of King, and that Malietoa Tanu, son of Malietoa Lanpepa, had begn rightfully elected, and declared him to be King of Samoa. Copies of .the decision were handed to the Ameri- can and British Consuls, who were present, and each for his xespective government, recognized. Tanu as King, and declared they would respect and abidé by the decision of the Chief Jus- tice. The German Consul, not being in eourt, a copy of the decision was sent to-him while the court was in session,” but:in a most discourteous manner the recelpt of the document was not acknowledged. Large numbers of people had on Sun- W Q0000000000000 O00000000 00000000C000000000 o DECISIVE JOINT o On Board H. M The Supreme Court now unde of that Government. eral and H. B. M.

The tension was great all morning. About 4 o'clock in the afternoon King Tanu sought refuge in the Tivoli, and about 4:30 p. m. a body of about 500 rebels made a rush from the western side of the town toward the hotel. The fighting had commenced. The German Consul rode at their head, and Von Bu- low was in actual command. The Chief Justice and family, with others, then left the hotel and sought the protection of the mission station. British and Americans had been warned to go there as a place of refuge. The fighting was severe in the main streets. Advantage was taken of the shelter of houses and trees. Hearing the firing on the beach, a party of rebels, 1000 strong, who had taken up a position inland of the Tivol about one and a quarter miles on the main road across the island, advanced in skirmishing order, after driving be- fore them a party of loyalists. ou- sands of shots were fired, and for two hours there was a stubborn defense. The loyal party by nightfall had been driven within a quarter of a mile of the mission station, around which the bal- ance of the loyalists had been com- pelled to retire. If the two rebel par- ties had effected a junction the loyal- ists would have been in a sorry plight indeed. Their position was bad enough, but friendly darkness prevented it be. ing worse. Samoans, like most all na. tive races, do not fight in the dark. The rebels, having the loyalists, as they thought, at their mercy when darkness set in, contented themselves with de- sultory shooting throughout the njght, only to find in the morning that their prey had escaped. Under cover of night the Malietoa people had sought refuge in boats laden to the gunwale under the guns of the Porpoise, and they could be seen huddled together as close as could be right alongside the warship to the number of about 1200 men, and suffering all the misery that a night's exposure in a rough sea, added to the want of food the day before, could in- flict upon them. By the flight of the Malietoa men to the Porpoise the rebels were left in ab- solute possession of the town, and im- mediately began to avail themselves of the privileges of victors. ~ All Samoan houses were looted and then burned, and white"men’s houses all over the place were invaded by armed bodies of natives, who demanded the right of N ) OF JOHN BULL’S AND UNCLE SAM’S REPRESENTATIVES and Great Britain, vide proclamation December 22, having been illeg- ally closed by the Provisional Government and the orders of the Chief Justice posted at the Courthouse torn down by armed troops The Chief Justice, supported by the United States Consul Gen- of the ¥..

Trees were cut down, crops were spoiled, dogs and horses taken away, and boats either taken or de- str d. They did their best to dam- age the royal party and they succeeded in doing irreparable harm. In this extremity the Consuls and the residents and the leading Mataafa chiefs came to an agreement in_order to preserve life and property and keep order. A - provisional government, with the President as executive head, for the above objects was approved by all Consuls pending the settlement of the whole question by their respective Governments. The British and Ameri- can Consuls consented to this provis- jonal agreement only on the under- standing that it was in nowise to af- fect. the Berlin treaty, or any official, or the powers of any officer under it, and also that the Malletoa people who had been in the meantime taken on board the warships to save them from perishing of cold and hunger should not in any way be ill treated, but al- lowed to go to their homes, their arms being retained on the Porpoise. To this all parties concerned consented and proclamations were issued notify- ing the people of the state of affairs. The first act of the provisional gov- ernment, however, again showed the fixed determination of the German offi- cials, both Consul and President, to as- sume an ascendency in Samoan affairs The action of the provisional gov ernment in deporting the Malf8toa chief to Mauons and Mauua is in direct op- | position to the agreement made with the Consuls. Sixty chiefs were sent to Mauua, but, owing to bad weather, could not fetch that island. They went into Tutuila, however, and there were taken over by the Pago Pago people, who have declared their adherence to Malietoa. They tried to capture the guard with the prisoners, but the schooner got under way too quickly. Everything points to another fight among the natives at no distant point. Mataafa people are dissatisfied, at least a portion of them, with the looting and deportation of chiefs, and are now talk- ing of uniting with the Malietoa fac- tion. 00000000000000C000 ACTION . 8.

He suggested-that a letter of condolence should be sent to the be- | reaved parents. The following particulars with refer- ence to the lives of the three victims may be interesting: . Michael Murphy, the brother, was born in 1869 in the very. district where he was killed. . He was a member of the Colonial Mount- ed Infantry, and very popular with all |, the people in the community where he lived, every one agreeing that he did not have an enemy in the world. Nora, the elder of thé girls, was born in the same district, and since finishing at school = she has resided with her par- ents. Ellen was born here also and was a gentlé and innocent ‘girl. Black-trackers ‘are used -extensively in this coyntry to run down criminals, and the police have employed a large number in this case and are scouring |- the country over. i The Premier, upon hearing of the dreadful crime, dispatched a message of sympathy to the relatives of the vicr tims. The Queensland Government has ofr fered a reward of ~£1000 for evidence | that will lead to the ‘apprehension of the guilty parties, with a“free pardon to any one not the chief offender.. An epidemic of crime seéms to pre- vail in Australia at the present time in the shape of murder and unmention- able offenses. Not many miles from where the bodies of the Murphies were found, the body of a young boy has been discovered,” foully -murdered. The boy, disappeared from home two weeks before. the Murphy tragedy, but his body was not found wmtil -after the Murphy murder was known. The dis- covery of the boy's body immediately following the triple murder had the effect of terrorizing the whole colony and making a sensation throughout Australia the like of which has never been known before. On December 10 last a boy named Hill Jeft home at Nundah on horseback | for the purpose of visiting his aunt sev- eral miles away. He never reached his' aunt’s residence, as was ascertained by hisg father, who went there on the Wednesday following. The police were communicated with, but their theory was that the boy had run away. A few days ago the boy's pony was found dead near Oxley. Foul play was then suspected, and search parties on Sat- urday found the boy's body much de- composed, with a bullet wound in the head. The body was covered with bushes. About four hundred yards from this the body of the pony was found, it having been shot through the head. The utmost precautions were taken not to disturb the boy’s body, and the police were at once informed. A message was in the meantime sent | to Brisbane asking for the immediate attendance of the Government medical officer. The relatives of the missing | boy recognized the remains by the | boots and whip which lay near. There was also a pair of trousers which had | been rolled up and attached to the lad's | saddle when he left home. These were found lying on the ground. A very large number of people endeavored tn get to the spot, but the police prevented them. The Hill boy was sixteen years | old and very timid. After a careful ex- | amination the medical officer reports that there is no doubt but that the boy was shot. When the body was dizcov- ered nothing was visible byt the boots and the bone of one leg, from 'which all the flesh had disappeared. Coming almost at the same time as | the foregoing crimés In Queensland is a horror in the colony of Victoria as full of mystery as the others. For over three weeks the Melbourne police | force has been endeavoring to discover the identity of a woman whose remains were found in a trunk in the Yarra River and who, it is now ascertained, had consumed an immense dose of arsenic. The case is one of the many mysteries confronting the Colonial po- lice at the present time. The remains have been identified successively as those of several voung women, all of whom have been found to be alive and well. The crime probably had to do with some medical malpractice, and it is thought that there must have been two or more persons cognizant of it. TERRIBLE VOYAGE OF A CATTLE STEAMER LONDON, Feb. 8.—Captain Findlay of the British steamer Mackinaw from Philadelphia January 24, which arrived here to-day, tells a terrible story of the vessel's experience. The Mackinaw met a furious gale on January 20. A heavy sea swept over her, and Cohn, one of the cattlemen, was drowned. On the morning of the 4th a succession of terrific seas threw her on her beam ends, smashing everything to splinters and flooding every part of the ship, On Board H. M. S.

The noise was similar to that which would be made by a per- son washing clothes. On Wednesday the whole town of Gatton and the neighboring towns were in mourning, the flags on differ- ent buildings flying at half-mast. The victims were burfed in the Gatton Cemetery shortly after noon. The cere- mony at the church and the gravesid was most impressive and painful. The cortege included hundreds of horse- men and as many vehicles. The scene at the cemetery was inexpressibly touching, and as the clear voice of the priest who' officiated uttered the sol- emn burial service the silence was broken here and there by the breaking which was quite helpless in the trough of the sea. The cattle plunged desper- ately and screamed constantly, while the men were obliged to wade up to their necks. Not until after a terrible fight could the water be got out of the cattle deck. The hurricane continued throughout the 30th, doing frightful damage on deck. The boats were stove and the engine room was flooded as well as the stock hold. The captain says he ex- pected the vessel to founder any mo- ment. When the storm cleared away he found sixty-six dead bullocks. During the next three days the gale gradually lessened. s —_—— 0il Warehouses a Menace.
