THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENIGODD

 

Mutnnfn’s Leadership \Vns Able—No-
bod y \Vunted a Change Except the
British Consul and His Aids—Ad-
miral Kautz Difl ' ‘heir9Bidding.

WASHINGTON, April 17.—A corre-
spondent in this city for a leading Ger-
man newspaper has received an inter-
esting private letter from Apia con-~
cerning events there in March as view—
ed entirely from the German side of the
question. The letter was written by a
prominent German and is of interest in

- that it gives for the first time the Ger-
, man view of the state of things now

existing in the Samoan islands. The

, letter begins with a complaint that no

regard whatever is shown by the Brit-
ish and American forces toward the
Germans. The bombardment had been
announced to begin on XVednesday,
March 14, at 1 p. m., but no notice, says
the letter, was given the Germans, and
the German consul general is still wait-

I
{ ing for the official communication of the

commencement of the bombardment.
. The commander 10f the German warship
Falke was notified by an officer of the
Philadelphia only a quarter of an hour
after the fire had been Repened. The
numerous whites living in the vicinity
of the town had no opportunity to take
any measures for their personal safety
and were not aware of what was going
on until shrapnel exploded in their
neighborhood. It is due, continues the
letter, only" to a. merciful Providence
that no whites were :killed or wounded.

The same afternoon three bombs were

of Apia, where the French.missi-on has
a school for nativechildren, one shell
falling down close to the house of the
' fathers and another exploding in the
3 immediate vicinity of the house of the
sisters.

On March 16 a shell fired from the
Philadelphia exploded too soon, and a 19
pound piece of it was thrown into the
building of the German consulate,
wrecking part of it. 'This event, it is
stated, taught the firing parties to use
a little more caution in'the future.

on March 18 a part of the town and
the grounds in the rear, the letter says,
were searched by an Anglo-American
landing party, strengthened by about
100 “friendly” natives under the com-
mand of Captain Sturdee of the warship
Porpoise. The expedition. landed in the
Mataute quarter of the town before the
house of a wealthy French merchant,
and after a few aimless volleys the Ta—
nu men occupied the house of the
Frenchman and battered down, under
the eyes of the English oflicers, doors
:and windows, and, the letter asserts,
helped themselves freely to whatever
from the store they could in the hurry
lay hands upon.

'f‘In the meanwhile the provisional
government under the able leadership
of ‘Mataafa had maintained such order
and security as under no former gov—
ernment. Everybody felt secure of his
life and property, the copra production
in the country commenced again. and
there 'were .signs of prosperous times
coming back to the white traders. No-
body who represented material interests

 

wanted a change of the existing condi-
tions. the British consul and his aid,
Mr. Sturdee, of course, excepted.

“On March 6 the Philadelphia, under
Admiral Kautz, arrived here. when the
§ fate of the provisional government was
sealed. Mr. Kautz did not think fit to
try to get a just picture of the Samoan
situation, by extending his inquiries as
far as possible. Chief Justice Chambers,
who through his partial judgment is
principally responsible for the present
troubles, the English consul Maxse and
Commander Sturdee were his crown
witnesses.”

Air Power Carl Tried.

NEW’ YORK, April 17.—The first of
the air pow er cars for the Twenty-eighth
and To cut v—ninth street line of the
V letropolitetn road made an experimen-
tal run o.er the Twenty- third street
line yesterday afternoon. A car will
run 16 miles on a single charge, and the
cars, as built, will have a speed capaci-
ty of from 10 to 12 miles an hour. Tle
mechanism of the new air motors is
very simple. The motors are controlled
by the motormen just as the motormen
control the electric motors now. The
platform controllers are only slightly
different in appearance from those used
on the electric cars.

Adjournment April 28.
, NEW YORK, April 17.—Senator Platt
talked over various Republican political
topics at the Fifth A3 enue hotel yes-
teiday with Chairman Odell, Speaker
Nixon and Leader Jotham P. Allds of
the assembly. It is pretty certain now,
it was said, that the legislature at Al-
bany will adjourn on April 27. It was
to have adjourned on April 21, and the
necessity for a preliminary report of the
Mazet committee is responsible for the
delay.

CHASING BRIGANDS. -

Bands Terror-inc Portions
of Cabin-e

HAVANA, April 17.—Detachments. of
the Seventh cavalry, led by Captain
Brewer, Captain Sickle and Lieutenant
Tompkins, were ent after the bandits
Saturday night ‘-y Major General Lee
into the districts they have been terror—
izing. The operations against them are
under the general direction of. Major
Dougherty, the American commandant
atGuanajay. The cavalrymen have Cu-
bans as guides. Four bands of Cubans.
from the camps of General Mayia Rod-
riguez and General Delgado are also out
in pursuit of the brigands.

«The United States authorities now
recognize the necessity of stern action
and of making prompt examples of of-
fenders of this nature. Their depreda-
tions have been carried on in close prox-
imity to many American troops, and if
the outlaws are not caught their immu-
nity may encourage-others. The Cuban
army was full of hard characters. The
Spanish former guerrillas also provided
plenty of the material of which bandits
are made. Fortunately the problem of
catching these fellows is much easier
than the Spanish attempt to capture
Cubans under the old regime, because
the country people who suffer from bri-
gandage are ready to act"as informers
and guides. The Cuban soldiers them-
selves, who are much excited over the
killing of their people at Caimito, seem
willing to exert themselves sincerely.
