SAN THANCISCO , Sept. 21. The stean
ship Alameda , from Sidney , Auckland , An
mid Honolulu , brought further pnrtlculn
concerning tbo , death of King Malieton. T !
King's death was due to tvphoid fever. 1
died on Monday , August 2J , and wns burl
on the 24th , a laige number of natives ai
whites attending the funeral.
Shortly before his death the king was r
moved from Apia to Vaillma , the rcsldcn
of the late Robert Louis Stevenson , whl
is at a considerable elevation on the slop
of Mount Vaca. The change from the s
beach to the more salubrious locality
Vaillma was expected to improve the c
clng's health , but ho gradually sank a
lied. The aged monarch of Samoa was n
.tiled that his tlnio had come and he r
lordlngly resigned himself to his end , wl
the fatalism characteristic of the Polincsl
races. In appearance Mallctoa was a 11
looking , stalwart man , with n gray , gr
zled moustache.
CicriiuiiiN AVniit ( o AIIIIOX Inland.
According to a report received it was I
lloved at Samoa that If her majcst :
steamer Hlngdove had not been
Apia the Gel-mans would have holsl
the German flag there on Malleto
death and have proclaimed the antu
atlon of Samoa. Malletoa leaves a daught
an attractive girl , named FAlmoa , who
17 or 18 years of age , and who was educal
at the London Missionaries' society sclv
at Papuatn , which Is near Apia He n
leaves a brother , an elderly chief , who HI
at Apia.
Speaking of Samoan affairs Purser Sm
of the Alameda sa > s-
"Thero is trouble expected there and I
Germans nro bringing back to their tslat
King Mataafu , In a man-of-war. The Ei
llsh have a gunboat there tht Hlngdo
The Ilrltlsh , German and American const
the chief Justice and the president of I
municipal council of Apia hnvo fern
themselves Into a board of control , pondl
the election of a successor to King Malic
of the Samoan group.
"Mataafa was deported by the powers so
jears ago to the Union ( Tokelau ) Islan
to the northwest of Samoa , owing to
presence In Samoa being n disturbing i
Ittlcal clement. He was Induced to sUrr-
der himself to the powers , on the und
standing that It was for the good of his pi
plo that he should go away. The exl
chief was convoved to the Union group
a German man-of-war , together with seve
of his relatives and friends. A itccnt i
blegram from Europe announced the HKt
hood of Mataafa being returned to San
and this will no doubt be done , as the ci
sequence of Malletoa's death. Mataafa r
Mallotoa v\cre related to each other. Matai
Is popular in Samoa and no doubt a la :
section of the people would be In favor
his appointment as king.
"Thero are several opposing sectli
among the Samoan natives , one of the la :
est being headed by Tamaasce , and It
said that each party has a nominee for I
kingship. In view of the conflicting op
Ions , It will bo seen that the position
affairs in Samoa may again become v <
serious and that active war may as Ilk
as not result between the rival parties.
"During the war of 1888-89 the Gcrrr
authorities nominated the chief Tnmaaseo
king , but the only authority h& cxercl
was that backed by the German gu
Tamaaseo Is still In Samoa , living at A'A

SAN FRANCISCO , Sept. 21. The stea
ship Alameda arrived today from Austral
ports via Honolulu. Advices from the 1
ter place , under date of September 14 , i
that the congressional commissioners
finishing their work , nnd expect to le
for Washington September 23. The cc
mlfrsioneis are now being deluged with
tltlons and memorials from the native I
walians. The sentiment of the natives
pears to bo divided. One faction desl
the restoration of the queen , whllo
other accepts the new order of affairs :
asks for certain rights under the now fc
of government. The natives who favor
storatlon held a mass -meeting on Septcm
12 , nnd adopted a memorial which
presented to the commissioners. The i
morlal alleges that the annexation trc
has failed and the Joint resolution Is Inefl
tive because tt was not passed by the p
fdo of the Islands or the icprcsentatl
it the legislature. The memorial conclu
by asking that the constitutional gove
racnt of January IB , 1800 , bo restored tin
the protection of the United States
America.
Among the speakers at the mass meet
was Ilobert W. Wllcox , the revolutloi
who a few weeks ate took the oath
allegiance In order to qualify himself fo
full pardon for past misdeeds Point
to the United States flag over the gove
ment building , he said "It Is useless
say that the flag over there will not cc
down again. It was up before and It cr
down. It will be shown that the anne
tlon vote was carried through by a ha
ful of foreigners. If America loves
why were not Hawallnns nlaccd on
commission ? We are not represented tin
The next thing wo shall not be able
vote "
The other faction of Hawallnns has i
presented n memorial to the commlssl
, This memorial asks for a territorial ft
of coveminent , with full rights for
'
natives nnd permission to make app
' prlatlons for ex-Queen Lllluokalanl , Pi
