GERMAN CONSUL MAKES TROUBLE
Illoody llettle Between the Parses of
; Mataafa and Malletoa-Maeh
Property Destroyed.
San Franoisoow Jan. 80. A cable
gram from Auckland, New Zealand,
under date ot January 17, says:
When the steamship Alameda lnlt
Apia, January 13 a revolution had
broken out on the Samoan islands and
was being waged with much bloodshed
and great destruction ot property. The
warships Falke and Porpoise, the latter
in command of Captain 8turdee, were
then at the inlands and were taking
part In suppressing the rising.
On December 81 Chief Justice Cham
bers decided in favor of Malietoa Tami,
claiming Mataata was barred by the
treaty of Berlin, January 1. Five
thousand ot Mataafa's followers rose
ill rebellion and defeated 3,000 ot Mali
etoa's forces, ambushing them, killing
13 natives and wounding many.
The rebels have burned 400 houses
and razed towns on Upolu. Bread
fruit trees have - been cut down in
many places. Foreigners ' are unin
jured. The crew ot the Porpoise Is guarding
the mission, whiob la a refuge for
Malietoa.
The three consuls have signed procla
mations recognising Mataafa's party as
the provisional government pending
insti notions from the powers, with
President Rnffell as executive head.
On tne Cth BaSell proclaimed the
supreme court closed and took posses
sion, declaring himself chief justice.
He asked Mataafa tor 600 men and was
refused.
The British and American consuls
united in a stiong protest against the
aotion of the president of the municipal
council. On the 7th Captain Stuidee,
of the Porpoise, and two consuls de
clared the action Illegal. The Por
poise oleared for action and landed a
force of marines. This force waa un
opposed. It took possession of the
court, and Chambers was reinstalled
and the British and American flags
hoisted over Chambers' house and tbe
com t house. The provisional govern
ment wrote Sturdee on the 18th that
it would seise Malietoa and take Tarn
asee off the Porpoise by force if neces
sary to deprive them of their title and
desert them. Chambers is residing on
the Porpoise. The Falke ia inactive.
The British and American consuls have
protested againrt any infringement of
tbe Berlin treaty. British residents
have taken refuge in the consulate and
American citizens have taken teluge
in the mission. There is no American
warship at Samoa.
