Jones amp co. Props. Washington april 5.�?the Sam Oan agreement for a High commission has progressed to the Point where the three governments Are exchanging notes As to the members of the com Mission. This is accepted As an Assurance that lord Salisbury accepts not Only the principle of the commission but the commission itself As the consideration of the British Delegate would hardly be entered upon unless the commission was assured. The published report that three commissioners would be named from each country is without foundation As such a plan has never been considered. There will be one from each country of about the same relative rank or standing. It is to insure this similarity of standing that the three governments Are mutually discussing the names of commissioners the question being whether they will be military men consuls general or officials in the foreign service. Aside from this desire to secure uniformity there is evidently some wish not to have any one country name a commissioner who May be personally objectionable by reason of his previous activities in samoan disputes. The German purpose to select a Consul general As commissioner is understood to Point to the nomination of one of the privy councillors now attached to the foreign office and in charge of colonial affairs. He formerly served As Consul general in Samoa. The British selection of a commissioner has been made conditional however upon the German and american selections so that while this condition remains open no announcement of the. Name can be made. One Point in the negotiations appears to be open and this May still occasion some difficulty. This is As to the future status of chief Justice Chambers and consuls Rose of Germany Osborne of the United states and Maxe of great Britain. It would be quite acceptable to Germany if All of them were with i Awn but when this proposal was made some time ago it was distinctly rejected. Now however the High commission May have such enlarged Powers that in effect the chief Justice and the consuls will have their authority curtailed if not entirely Cut off. In some Well informed quarters it is said this is the real cause of lord Salisbury s very mature consideration of the plan As he is believed to be averse to any project which even indirectly will result in the retirement of All the present officials and the virtual acceptance of Germany s original proposal that All be withdrawn. Cubar to Nori Heni Points in the United states at pro sent. A a a a. Washington april 5.-he decision of attorney general Grigors on the army canteen legislation of the last Congress has already stirred the Temperance and religious elements to activity and tonight the superintendent of legislation of the National w. . U. And head of the Reform Bureau announced that they would not submit without a. Flight to the interpretation put upon the Law by the attorney general but would Appeal to the president himself. They said the execution of the Law Lay with the president that if he chose to the Power was in his hands to suppress absolutely the Sale of liquor in the army and that they would not rest satisfied until or. Quot Mckinley had acted. They indicated a purpose to begin agitation of the matter in the churches throughout the country and have them urge on the president that he carry out what they insist notwithstanding the attorney general s opinion was the. Plain intent of Congress. A a Washington april 5.�?it is not believed Here that there will be any difficulty in arranging the details of the commission plan for the settlement of the samoan trouble arising from the reluctance of the British government to throw aside the Berlin treaty. The state department does not expect it will be necessary to go far outside of the lines of that convention to secure a satisfactory adjustment of the present difficulties. As there appears to be apprehension that the proposed commission May not be limited in its functions sufficiently to meet British ideas it May be said that the plan in contemplation safeguards All essential Points. It is proposed that the commission shall visit the islands make careful inquiry into existing conditions and then apply such remedial measures As May seem to be necessary to ensure Tranquility. It will be distinctly understood that whatever the commission does in that line will be purely temporary in character and subject to the approval of the governments party to the Berlin treaty. Then the commission will be expected to Frame a scheme for the approval by each of three Powers for the future government of the islands involving perhaps some Moro or less Radical changes in the original Berlin news. Progress at Berlin. Berlin april 5.�?the negotiations Between the German minister of foreign affairs Bai on von Buelow and the United states ambassador Andrew d. White and the British ambassador. Sir Frank c. Lascelles continue. The representative of great Britain still favors the majority Rule within the proposed samoan investigation. Germany wants unanimity Jaccoi Ding to the Berlin account and the United states acquiesces in the latter. Or. White said to the correspondent Here of the associated press quot i believe England will yield to unanimity. The delay in a decision is probably due to lord Salisbury s absence. As a Compromise i offered that each Power appoint three commission ens with seven to decide. But this met with Small favor. Germany thinks that it will not be difficult to secure unanimity within the commission if the commissioners Are instructed to be conciliatory. Quot official despatches from Washington say the american representatives at Samoa have been instructed to proceed cautiously and return to the status quo. All other reports such As that the United states and great Britain will hold Germany responsible for the deaths of Blue jackets during the recent fights Are Tariff on Tea.

The chief cause of this anti american feeling is the increase in quot Tho Cost of living since the american occupation began and the ill treatment that Many of the natives in the country districts have received at the hands of rough soldiers.
