COMPLICATIONS
AT SAMOA
Consul Declares tie Alrent an Insult
to tie MM States.
BRITISH WARSHIP
OFF FOR APIA
German Consul Forcibly Expelled From
the Supreme Court Buildiug by the
American and British Consuls,
Backed by a Force of Marines.
Auckland, New Zealand, Jan. 19.
Further particulars regarding the dis
turbances at Samoa show that Mataafa'a
followers numbered about 5000 men and
the adherents of Malietoa Tanus only
about 1000. There was tw o hours' fight
ing between the rival forces, during
which several of the warriors were de
capitated. The American consul iesued a procla
mation claiming the Berlin treaty had
had the same force as a law of congress
and that an insult to the supreme court
of Samoa is therefore equivalent to an
insult to thn government at Washington.
Washington, Jan. 19. The navy de
partment has issued orders to the cruiser
Philadelphia to proceed to Samoa at
once. The Philadelphia, with Admiral
Kautz on board, arrived at San Diego,
Cal., this morning from Acapulco,
Wellington, New Zealand, Jan. 19,
It is reported that owing to the trouble
in Samoa three British warships will
proceed there, and one American war
ship will start for the islands from Honolulu.
German Consul Evicted.
London, Jan. 19. A special from
Aukland, N. Z., says
The British and Ameiican consuls
were compelled to force the doors of the'
supreme conrt at . Apia, in which the
German coneul bad established Limself,
and to push him into the street. All
parties at Apia, the dispatch continues,
unite in condemning the German consul
for the fighting which has taken place,
but not the rival kings. It is pointed
out that in violation of all agreements;
the consul accompanied Mataafa'a force
when the claimant invaded the town
and encouraged opposition to Malietoa
Tanus.
When the British and American con
suls were informed as to the situation
they adjourned the court and locked the
building. The German consul then de
manded the keys, and they were refused
him. He then broke open the doors, re
moved the locks and replaced them with
others. He afterward brought the Ger
man municipal president into the cbam
ber, and the latter went ' upon the bal
cony and shouted to the British and
American marines assembled in the
square: "I am the supreme court; I
am the chief justice." The crowd re
plied with jeers, and the British consul
demanded the keys of the building,
which were refused. A Scotchman
named Mackie thereupon climbed on
top of the building and hoisted the Sa
moan flag, while the British and Amer
ican consuls and a number of marines
forced the doors and hurried the German
consul into the street.
Then the two consuls formally and
legally, according to thedispatch,opened
court and issued a warning against any
further interference with its jurisdiction
threatening to arrest and imprison any
one attempting to do so.
Later dispatches say the situation" is
now quiet and the German consul re
mains in his consulate.
German Officers to Blame.
Washington, Jan. 19. It has been
realized for a long time past that there
was need for a modification of the terras
of the tripartite treaty by which we as
sumed joint guardianship of Samoa with
England and Germany, but np to this
point it has not been possible to get all
three of the powers to agree on any one
project.
Negotiations have been on foot in re
lation to the succession to the Samoan
throne, and it is calculated to lead to ill
feeling, at least, that. German officers
should resort to a coup d'etat at this
stage of the negotiations. It is believed
much of the responsibility for this arbi
trary action must rest upon Kaffel, the
German president of the municipal
council at Apia, whose troublesome at
titude of late has led to remonstrances
on the part of other powers.
The United States, Great Britain and
Germany, it is believed, could easily
reach a satisfactory solution of the crisis
in Samoa if they could deal with the
subject themselves in the usual course,
but there is some fear of ill considered
action on the part of some of the agentB
of these governments in Samoa before
they can receive instructions from their
governments.
The interests of the United States are
in the hands of Lloyd W. Osborne, in
whose discretion the state department
repoees great confidence. ' N

Curtis Hartline, 22 years of age, was ar
rested there yesterday by Constable T.
J. Butcher on a charge of having stolen
the money. After his arrest Hartline
admitted his guilt and was held to
answer. . The constable started with
him to Boseburg, boarding the train at
Riddle. The prisoner went outside to
get a drink of water and failed to return.
He has not been seen since. Hartline is
a stranger in this country.
Vessel Lost Off Point Reyes.
San FhanciscO Jan. 19. From re
ports brought in by the steamer collier
Wyefield, Captain Cartmer, some un
known schooner has gone. to. pieces off
Point Reyes, and the probability is that
all hands were lost, as the wreck has not
been reported.
While off the point the Wyefield sailed
through a floating mass of wreckage of
ship's timbers, bulwarks, ballast and
deck fittings that looked as though they
had been , a part of some coasting
schooner.
The name of the ship, could not be
found on the timbers, nor were any
bodies seen, although a vigilent lookout
was maintained.
La Urlppe Successfully Treated.
' t"I have just recovered from the seer
ond attack of La Grippe this year," says
Mr. Jas. A. Jones, publisher of the
Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter
case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being in bed a little over two
days against ten days for the former at
tack.' The second attack Iam satisfied
would have been equally as. bad as the
first but for the nse of this- remedy- as 1
had to goto bed in about eix hours after
being 'struck' with it, while in the first
case I was able, to attend to business
about two days before getting do"wn.' "

CATARRH OF
THE STOMACH
A Pleasant, Simple but Safe and Effec
tual Cure For It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered te next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings, a
formation of gases, causing pressure on
the heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing, headaches, fickle appetite, nervous
ness and a general played out, languid
feeling.
There is often a foal taete in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the interior
of the stomach could be seen it would
show a slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and ob
stinate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
or thoroughly digested before it has
time to ferment and irritate the delicate
surface of the stomach, To secure a
prompt and healthy digestion is the one
necessary thing to do and when normal
digestion is secured the catarrahal con
dition will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlaneon the safest
and best . treatment is to nse after each
meal a tablet' composed of Diastase,
Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Gclden
Seal and fruit acids. . These tablets can
now be found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
and not being a patent medicine can be
nsed with perfect safety and assurance
that healthly appetite and thorough di
gestion will follow their regular use
alter meals.
Mr. N. I.'Booher, of 2710 Dearborn at.,
Chicago, 111., writes: "Cattarh is a
local condition resulting from a neglected
cold in the head, whereby the lining
membranes of the nose - becomes in
flamed and the poisonous discbarge
therefrom passing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus pro
ducing catarrah of the stomach. Medi
cal authorities prescribed for "me for
three years for catarrah of stomach
without cure, but today I am the
happiest of men after using only one
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I
cannot find appropriate ' words to ex
press tny good feeling. , I have found
flesh, appetite and sound rest from' their
use"'
Stuart's Dyspepsia . Tablets is .. the
safest preparation aa well as the very
simplest and most convenient remedy
for any form of indigestion, catarrah of
stomach,' billiousness, sour . stomach,
heartburn and bloatfng after meals.
Send for little book, mailed free on
stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart
Co., Marshall. Mich. The tablets can
be.found at all drng stores. .
