Although the amount appropriated for the
support of the Home for the Tricudless in
1S ! > 7 wan about $16.000 only $2000 of It was
diann before the state officials suspended
further payments Since then about $5 000
in claims have come in and are on flic waitIng -
Ing for future action by the officials The
claims presented for salaries of the officials
nnd employes at the home have been
promptlj rejected , and arc refused because
there same officials are found not to have
Icon entitled to hold the places and have
recently been ousted to make room for those
designated by the governor The state of
ficials have , however , raised no objection to
the pajment of salaries to persons who
held seats in the legislature and were later
ousted.
It Is understood that among the claims
filed for goods furnished nre some upon
v\hlch part payment had be-Cn made b > the
Home for the Frlendlcs * . society , but the
claims cnme .for the full amount. The of-
llelals arc disagreed as to what course to
j > i TJUO In such cases. Some think that where
payments have been made the } should be
deducted from the bill nnd the society be
compelled to Icse the amounts Others
think that if the gooJs bought really went
to the suppoit of the children the state
ought to pa } It , allowing the soclet } to get
1 t > rebate from the dealers The matter of
nllowance of the claims is hung up pending

WASHINGTON. April 21 The report
coming from Shanghai via London that an
other German war vessel has been ordered
to Samoa was received with Interest by
officials hero , though no particular Impor
tance was attached by them to the report ,
the opinion being expressed that the Ger
man government was simply making an ad
dition to Its natal representation In Samoa
so as to equal that of Great Britain a step
It has a right to take because of I' * large
commercial Intereits there , from the Ger
man point of view the dlipatch of another
war \essel to Samoa would be entirely con
sistent \\lth the maintenance of Germany's
prestige In the Island group , where Its ma
terial Interests nre greater than those of
other nations represented there These , It
Is claimed , have been endangered bv re
cent happenings to the prejudice of the
countrj. Such an act , a German diplomat
said tonight , could not be construed as
unfrlendlj to the Interests of this government - j
ment nor as a menace to existing condi
tions. Germanj at this time has only ono
war vessel at Apia , while Great Britain I
has two and the United States one
