- The Latest Front Samoa Shown That
Martial Law Prevails—The Maintain.
Party Surround the Town—Con-
tinued Fighting Reported.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 8.~The
steamship Mariposa arrived from Syd—
ney yesterday, having £200,000 in gold
on board". She brings news from Samoa
up to March 24.
Malietoa Tanu was crowned king at
Mulinuu on March 23, and his follow-
ers, who had been sent into exile in oth--
er islands, were brought back. The Ma-
lietoa party, supported by the British
and American forces, controlled Apia,
but the Mataafa forces surrounded the
town. Martial law was in force and all
places of business were closed, while
British and American marines were
patrolling the streets, preserving order
and affording protection from Mataafa’s
adherents, who were attempting to for—
.age at every opportunity. The Germans
were taking no public part in the trou-.
' bles.
They were. pretending to be strictly
neutral, but were currently reported
and believed in Apia to be secretly sup-
pdrting Mataafa with arms and ammu-
nition. The trouble was precipitated by
the refusal of the German consul to join
in the proclamatidn of his American
and British colleagues declaring that
the provisional government had been
recognized solely for the preservation
of peace. Two days later the represent-
ative of Germany issued a proclamation
stating his position.
This was on March 13. On the same
day American and British marines and
sailors landed at Matautu and trans-
ferred the Malietoa partisans to Muli-
nuu. Next day, because Mataafa’s
forces harassed settlers and threatened
to destroy plantations, the positions
where they massed were shelled by the
Porpoise and the Royalist. On .VVednes-
day, March 15, the Porpoise and the
Royalist again shelled the suburbs, and
the Porpoise kept cruising along the
coast, constantly throwing shells in-
land. On that night the natives at-
tempted to rush the road near the Tivo-
1i hotel, but were frustrated by British
sailors, who lost two men killed and. two
wounded.
Comparative quiet reigned until
March 19, when a brush took place be—
- tween the Samoan, factions near Vain-
su, in which six Mataafa men were kill-
ed and one Malietoa warrior was
wounded.
During the rest of the week until the
sailing of the Mariposa there was con-
tinued shelling of villages along the
coast, with a few encounters between
the natives on land.
Malietoa. was crowned king on Thurs—
day afternoon, March 23. ’He was landed
from the Porpoise at Apia wharf under
escort of British and American sailors
and marines and a body of natives, and
proceeded to Mulinuu, where the‘coro-
nation took place. Admiral Kautz, Chief
Justice Chambers, Commander White,
Consul General Osborn, Consul Maxse
and Captains Sturdee and Torlesse were
present. A flag was raised, the band
from the Philadelphia playing the Sa-
moan, American and British national
anthems. Commander White, United
States navy, then announced that Ma-
lietoa was king, and the Philadelphia
and the Porpoise saluted his standard.
No German officer was present at the
ceremony. The kaiser‘s war vessel did
not salute the British cruiser Tauran-
ga, which arrived at Apia on March 24.
The Iiaiser and Sulnoan Affairs.
BERLIN, April 8.—During the audi-
ence which Mr. White had with the em-
peror his majesty thanked the embas-
sador for his efforts to bring about a
satisfactory arrangement of the Samo-
an affair. The interview lasted an hour
and a half, and all important pending
questions affecting the interests of the
United States and Germany were dis-
cussed. His majesty expressed great
satisfaction at the concilitory and
friendly attitude of the United States
toward Germany and also at the fact
that Dr. Solf; the new German presi-
dent of the municipal council at Apia,
had met with such a. favorable recep-
tion in the United States.

Dun’s Weekly Report Shows a. Very
- FaVorable Situation.
NEW YORK, April 8.—R. G. Dun &
Co.’s weekly review of trade says:
Failures in the first quarter of 1899
were in number 2,772 against 3, 687 last
year and the liabilities $27,152,031
against $32,946,565, a. decrease of 17.6 per
cent. No other year of the 24 covered
by Dun’s quarterly reports has shown
as small failures during its first quarter
excepting 1880 and 1881 and no other ex-
cept 1880 and 1886 as small liabilities per
failure.
The volume and prosperity of busi-
ness render small failures natural. The
payments through clearing. houses dur-
ing the first quarter of 1889 were‘45.3
per cent larger than last year and 54. 2
per cent larger than 1892, on which until
last year rested the high water mark of
business. April begins with transac-
tions over 70 per cent greater for the
first week than in 1892.
The famine in iron, caused by urgent
demand far exceeding present supply,
not only continues, but has caused haste
to Start 48 additional furnaces, with an
output estimated at 39,972 tons weekly.
Wheat has been fluctuating without
much visible reaSon, rumors being wild—
ly contradictory, as usual at this sea-
son, and commanding not much more
confidence than usual. The exports
from Atlantic rpOrts for the week, flour
against 2,240,172 last year, and in spite
of all- reports the current receipts con-
tinue to exceed last year’s. May wheat
has declined a fraction for the week and
cash corn three-eighths and cotton one-
eighth cent. The prospect for continu-
ance of large exportslof staples has not
improvedrwithin the past ten days.
Failures for the week have been 141 in
the United States against 232 last year
and 12 in Canada against 32 last year.
THAT BRIDGE CONTRACT.
English Builders “Hunted Too Much
Time and Lost the Job.
LONDON, April 8.-—The report of
Baron Cromer, the British\ agent and
consul general in Egypt, to the foreign
office on Egypt and the Sudan in 1898
was issued last night. Under the head-
ing of “Railways” the report alludes to‘
the Atbara bridge contract awarded to
a Philadelphia firm, a. fact which has
aroused considerable feeling in British
engineering circles, and says:
“The time of delivery was an even
more important consideration than the
price. An English firm offered to de-
liVer the work in 6% months at a cost
of $52, 450. The American firm’ 5 tender
was $32 5,00 for delivery in 42 days. "
The ieport adds:
“I have no doubt these facts will ad-
mit of some explanation wherewith I
am unacquainted. They appear, how—
ever, :to merit the attention of bridge
builders in Great Britain.”
Lord Cromer adds an expression of
opinion by Colonel Gordon that the
Americans gained time in sticking to
fixed standards, either in locomotives or
bridges.
The British agent expects the rail-
road line to be finished to Khartum
during the present year and believes
it will be extended to Abu-Haraz in
1900.
