APIA, Samoa, May 2S. (Special Corre
spondence of The Bee.) It may be said
that fashion Is a fickle queen and rules tho
world with tyrannical sway and nowhere
are her behests more binding than right
here lu little Samoa. With these people
scarcely any law can be strong enough to
supersede or suspend any fashion or estab
lished custom. In matters of female attire
or non-attlre, Samoa still leads. There
may have been much strife botwecn tho
smart sets of Samoa, Newport, Narragan
sett Pier and other like centers of new
and ultra civilisation, but Samoa still
slightly holds It over these places, In that,
except while at church and on evening
promenades, Samoan women dress ex
tremely decollete, decollete from the heav
ens downward and from the earth upward
knee-plus-ultra and in fact In many In
stances extremes nearly meet. It follows
therefore that Samonns nro about a halt
a length ahead, but owing to a kind of
national dislike of being outdone It Is
probable that others will follow the pro
cession and soon fall Into line.
Samoa also Icadi In matters of marriage
nnd divorce. Whenever a Samoan, espe
cially It he bo n chief, gets tired of his
wife ho says "go" and she goes and after
a long time, perhaps two oi three hours,
to one younger, more nttractlvo and
charming he says "come" and sho comes
and a fresh start is taken and by this
simple and Improved method the cumber
gome machinery of the courts Is not called
Into action nnd tho parties interested do
not have to submit to the Insolence of
office or bo vexed by the law's delay.
As a progressive people, perhaps wo
ought to adopt these methods tor lightning
changes and rapid transit.
For KIHIiik n Cliliinmnn.
Somo months ago a Chlnamnn named
Ah Loo, who resided near this consulate,
was murdered. His body was found In tho
water, with throat cut and with other
marks of violence. Thcro was no doubt that
a murder had been committed nnd as such
things aro 'not common In Samoa the Inci
dent awakened considerable IntorcBt. It
was known that the deceased was pos
sessed ot several hundred dollars, which ho
kept secreted somewhere about his little
homo. Tho pollco were untiring In their
efforts to find the guilty party and several
persons were arrested, but discharged upon
hearing, for want of proof of guilt. At
last ono Pupu, a Samoan with a bad repu
tation, was arrested, charged with the
crime, and on April 2" placed on trial,
convicted and sentenced to suffer the death
penalty and on May 2, after a pretty
speech by Pupu, the trap fell. I received
an Invitation, but sent regrets nnd did
not participate. A friend who was present
reported to me at once. Ho was very
enthusiastic. He said: "It was a very nice
affair and everything went oft splendidly."
That evening, as the shades of night were
falling fast, n comet ot considerable pro
portions was observed over tho western
horizon and It wns nt once suggested tbnt
tho spirit of Ah Loo had been Impounded
till such time aB his murder had been
avenged nnd, that now, with unbraldcd and
Illuminated queue. It wns sailing away,
away to that land Utopian, where jugular
veins nre not severed and where thieves do
not break In and steal. Perhaps tho white
man Is to somo extent responsible for this
rumor.
When Mnllctim Died.
At midnight on Auguet 22, 1S98, King
Mallctoa departed this life at Mullnuu. It
was an event very much dreaded, but not
wholly unexpected by thoso who knew his
nctual condition.
Under the peculiar form of government
which then existed there wns no successor
and serious complications were likely to
arise.
At S o'clock on the morning of the 23d
the consular representatives of Great Brit
ain, Germany and tho United Statcn, act
ing In their diplomatic capacity, assumed
control of the headless government, which
was the only thing possible under the cir
cumstances. After deliberating they Issued
a proclamation announcing officially the
death of the king and In which they re
quested all Samoans to remain at their
homes, to nvold nil large assemblages and
all excitement, assuring them that In proper
time all would be satisfactorily arranged.
This proclamation was respected and absp
lutcly observed and obeyed.
On the afternoon of the 24th the dead
king was laid to rest In the presence of
many thousands, with solemnity and tho
most perfect decorum. The consuls then
advised that a complete reconciliation of
all Samoa be accomplished before any ef
fort should be made to elect a king. Such
reconciliation was at onco commenced nnd
continued until early in December follow
ing nnd was conducted witn an or tne
forms and ceremonies peculiar to Samoan
customs.
riiiRKliiK fnr Mntnnfn.
Weeks were spent In the exchange and
distribution of fine mats, hundreds nnd
perhaps thousands of conciliatory speeches
wero made and the best products of tho
land were consumed at numerous fcast3.
While all this was going on Mataafa nnd
chiefs were returned from exile at Jalult
in tho Marshall Islands. From the date of
his arrival there was almost ono continu
ous ovation to Mataafa. but ho remained nt
Mullnuu. speechless In so far ns politics
wero concerned, but politicians, both native
nnd foreign, wero nt work; there were foes
to be humiliated t.nd punished and nmbl
tlons to bo gratified and soon there were
many nsplrants for the kingship, but It
soon became evident that nearly everything
wan drifting In tho direction of Mataafa.
For a long time the representatives, both
individually and collectively, wero dnlly and
perhaps hourly Importuned to exert their
Influence In favor of one or another of tho
candidates, but they, or nt least one of
them to my knowledge, refused to express
a preference, contending that the treaty
powers had no right to Interfere In tho se
lection of n king, nnd that when the Sa
moans had settled their differences and
by a clear majority had agreed upon a suit
able person undoubtedly such selection
would be satisfactory and would be ratified
by tho powers. As time advanced party
spirit became Intensified, religious preju
dices were aroused and became nn Impor
tant factor, which was a regrettable fact.
However, about December 10 It wns an
nounced that Mataafa had been elertcd
king, which election was certified to tho
proper nuthorlty under the Berlin treaty.
IVnple Not I'lenspd.
Probably onc-6lxth of tho native popula
tion wero not satlafled with the selection
thus made, but In nil probability would
have acquiesced but for tho Inllucnco of
the white man.
Under his guidance another election was
held and the result of such iccond election
nlso certified to the same authority. Under
the treaty this sent tho whole matter up
for Judicial determination, though thee
probably sever was any serious doubt as to
who had been legally chosen king. provHcd
all candidates were eligible.
Whit followed and the motives that
prompted action cannot be considered here.
At 10 o'clock a. m. on December 21, at the
conclusion of a trial lasting ten days, a do
cltton was rendered In effect that Mataafa
was ineligible and that young Tanu was
king.
All wns quiet and orderly at the time and
natives and foreigners dispersed. 1 re
turned to tho consulate, uot entirely tree
from apprehensions ot trouble, and placed
the most valuable records In the sates. Dur
ing the Afternoon I went to Apia and Ma
tatce nnd while at tho latter place It wut
announced that tho Mataafa forces were :d
vanclng from Mullnuu. Having concluded
somo business matters 1 started to return
to our consulate. As 1 reached the Tlvoll
hotel, windows and shutters and doors ot
hotels and stores ami In fact all places
were l.astlly closed and In an Instant the
streets wero thronged with Mallctoa men,
with red sashes upon their heads and with
rifles nnd head knives In their hands, all
running toward tt;c woods or bush In the
rear, and It was announced that an attack
was about to be made from that direction.
Di'inmiM ration by Mnntonns.
I regarded the affair as something ot a
Joko and went upon the veranda to await
events. Soon the men commenced to re
turn nnd stated that It had been a falsa
alarm. I then returned to the consulate
and soon a party arrived from Apia and
stated that the Mataafa fleet was crossing
the hay headed directly for tho United States
consulate. While 1 had from the first ro
fused to interfere or express any prefer
ence I had openly announced that when a
decision should be rendered It would be my
duty to sustain that decision, whatever It
might be, nnd knew therefore that they
had the right to consider mo an enemy. I
knew nlso that If they wanted us they only
had to say so, as wc had not a man or gun
or ship within thousands ot miles and
overy native In the village. Including our
own servants, had mysteriously disap
peared, I went to the front and sure
enough thirty-two boats, with about 1,200
armed men, were bearing down upon us,
with the blast ot bugles nnd rattle ot drums,
with war songs nnd In tact making more
noise than any others than Samoans could
make.
Onward they came and commenced to land
within 200 feet In front of ur and ot course
we knew not what was going to happen. I
felt confident that thoy wero not tho
savages they had been represented to be
and nlso felt confident that the relations of
myself and family with them wero most
friendly and knew alto that they felt very
kindly toward the United States. Myself
and wife and son, the only pcrsunt left in
Vaala, stood In tho front perch and If we
were not delighted to sec them we took uo
pains to disclose that fact. Fearing that
tho Mallctoas might bo forming In the
timber, Just In the rear of tho consulate,
and that a battlo might open at nny
moment, we locked the place, went out ot
tho gate, passed by and among them and
leisurely walked In the direction of the
British consulate, which was about fifty
rods distant and at which n strong guard
had been posted from the Porpoise.
Between Two Plrra.
Tha racket In our rear was by no means
assuring. When we had gone about two
thirds of tho way thcro came running
around tho corner at the British con
sulate In front of us 200 of tho best men
ot tho Mallctoas, perfectly furious that
their village should bavo been thus in
vaded. When noar to us they commenced
to drop on one knee and take deliberate
atm nt the Matnafns In our rear. It didn't
take long to realize that wo wero upon a
narrow street, directly between two hos
tile forces, all within easy rifle range;
that the situation was somewhat critical
and that It In the excitement a single shot
should be fired by either side tho battle
would bo opened, the street would bo swept
ns with the besom of destruction, and that
thero would not be enough of us left for
Identification "after the ball wns over."
Just at this moment a certain mission
ary a good friend of ours came rushing
past us, waving the Mallctoas back and
shouting "Fa'amaslno Sill Amallka" (the
high chief from America), and the red
heads (the Mallctoa people) at once com
menced to retire and the Mataafas to re
turn to their boats; the Mataafas then
proceeded further up the beach to tho
eastward to -commence operations.
Wo at once returned to our consulate,
opened up and remained during the night
as usual. The Mataafas proceeded up the
beach probably as far as Saluafata nnd
as they returned paid their respects to
Solosolo, Lautuanuu, Letcga, Suga, Vallole,
Matafagatele, Moata and other villages,
nnd of courso hnd everything their own
way, as the people fled before them. All
night wo could hear the bugles and drums,
which seemed to be nearer as the hours
passed.
As the new year was ushered In nt mid
night a heavy rain set In, which continued
till noon of the following day, and It may
be assumed that tho new year opened
with us somewhat gloomily.
Hltnntlon Decidedly Critical.
Purine the last night of 198 I was not
oblivious as to what wns being done; I wns
confident that both parties wero posting
their forces In what were supposed to be tho
most advantageous positions; nnd I was
equally confident that owing to a vast su
periority of numbers the Mataafa forces
wero forming a perfect cordon entirely
around Apia and outside of tho Mallctoa
forces except on the concave beach In
front and that they could and would clo3o
In upon Apia and the Malletoa forces
whenever they saw fit to do so. During the
forenoon ot Sunday, January 1, there was
a heavy downpour, which seemed to
dampen the nrdor of all, and about this
consulate all was quiet. About 11 o'clock I
received n note from tho chief Justice, stat
ing that he nnd his family hnd been com
pelled to abandon their residence nt Mo
tootua (In tho bush half of a mile back
from Main street) and were at the Hotal
Tlvoll and demanding my Immediate pres
ence. As I started I met Tagaloa, a high
chief, who had been native Judgo during
tho reign of King Mallctoa, who seemed
much excited and wanted to know "If tho
powers wero ready," He stated that tho
Mataafas were advancing from the east
and were within a mllo of our consulate
and that he was ready to make n stand
and glvo battle nt tho little river Fulstua
Just cast of this consulate I told him that
In so far as I knew tho treaty powers were
not engaged In war. that It he had re
ceived any assurances from nny of them
ho had been deceived, as It was not probnblo
that such powers would take ony action In
the matter, but that I would meet him In
a few minutes at the British consulate, as
that consul had the only ship and tho only
men In the harbor that would bo friendly.
I told him that I might give moral sup
port, but that It would end there, as that
was the only kind within my control at
that time. I asked him how many men he
had to reslnt tho advance of tho enemy
nnd ho -ald wc bavo 100 at this place. I
said: "You con do ns you like, but you
can hardly expect to resist the approach
of more than ten times your number, c
peclally when they have thousands to as
slst should It be neeestary. You are cer
talnly surrounded by vnstly suporlor forces
In point of numbers."
He departed for tho British consulate
When I arrived n tew minutes later I found
that he had been dismissed with the simple
statement that tho British were only pro
tcctlng British and American life and
property. This seemed a great disappoint
ment, ns they had evidently expected more,
though postibly they had no reason for
such expectations.
I then went to Apia aud at the Hotel
Tlvoll I found the chief Justice and hll
family somewhat excited and uneasy. Tho
guard from the Porpolso which had been
placed nt their residence nt Motoottu had
Just been withdrawn. Upon request, I went
to call upon the young king, who was
holding a kind ot reception In a natUo
house nearby. It soou appeared that they
were expecting tbnt the treaty powers
would nssume control of the contest, It
nny there was to be. 1 could not nt this
critical moment permit Ihcm to suffer
tinder such delusion and told them frankly
that I hnd no support to give and I wns
conlldent that neither the British nor
Germans would Interfere. I made my call
very short, as 1 had begnn to suspect that
something might really happen. 1 returned
to the hotel nnd almost Immediately tho
young klug nnd Teo Tuvnle, the Malletoa
secretary of state, cftmo rushing up nnd
asked mo If they might go above In tho
hotel. I called the proprietor nnd he per
mitted them to go. At this moment canio
word that the high chief, Folou, formerly
nntlvo chief Justlco of Samoa, nnd Chief
Anl, interpreter of tho supremo court, both
or wnom I had left not five minutes beforo
nt tho reception, had been taken prisoners,
mat tne .Matnnfas had forced the Mull Via,
bridge and were upon us. Almost In tho
twinkling of an eye everything that had
hinges or would slide was closed and ap
parently hermetically scaled. Everybody
wag seeking shelter ot some kind.
Wh-.n tin- FlrhiK Murtr.t.
I did not know enough to know thn dnncor
I wns In nnd stood upon tho street for snmn
minutes until thlngi begnn to look serious
irom my viewpoint. I then started fnr
home. About ten rods on the way, as I
passed tno entrance to tho grounds of tho
London mission tho commander of tho
Ilrltlsh Porpolso, tho British consul and my
son passed Into tho grounds toward the
stone houso of the mission. From this I
was sntistied thnt they had awakened to a
realization of tho seriousness of tho situa
tion. Very tioon after tho chief Justlco nnd
family, through a back fence, passed from
tho hotel to the mission building, together
with tho young king nnd the native secre
tary of state. I walked on In tho direction
of the United States consulate grounds,
but was anxious to soo what was
going on behind nnd did not make
much headway. As I crossed tho
Valslgano bridge from curiosity I stopped
to view tho situation. Peoplo were scur
rying In all directions and ns I wntched for
a moment I saw the first puff of smoke
and heard tho crack of tho rifle. That first
shot was by Mullaga. a chlnf acting ns
nntlvo marshal of tho supremo court, and
killed a Snvall chief of the Mataafa forces.
I have become posaessed of tho sword of
Mullaga (Mull-nng) and may bring It homo
as a souvenir. I knew then that tho con
flict was on. Flrlt.g then commenced In
nil directions, except from the bay In front,
and many bullets struck tho water very
near wnero I was standing. It wns then
about 4 o'clock and I continued my way
nomewnrd and as I reached the British
consulate I learned that my wifo hnd gone
there to bo under protection of tho Brit
ish guard. By this tlmo the firing had bc-
como general all around us except upon tho
water front. It wan evident however, that
none of tho firing wns dangerously near to
us nnd I went to tho United States con
sulate and mndo the best disposition pos
slblo of records nnd properties and nt dark
returned to tho British consulate where I
remained until after midnight. During tho
first half of tho night various reports wero
received, one of which was that tho Mallc
toas had threo Mataafa heads.
Vlntors Loot the Town.
I had nover entertained any doubt that
If a battlo was to bo had It would be quick
and decisive and at midnight tho most ter
rible babble of human voices came up to
us from Apia and It wns soon learned that
the entire Malletoa forces, with tho ex
ception ot 200 or 300 who had escaped to
the rear and started across the mountain,
had been driven to their boats nnd had
taken refuge under the Porpoise. It be
came evident at once that Apia nnd all of
us individually and collectively, were nt thn
mercy of tho overwhelming Mataafas and
that they could mako such disposition ot
us as they might think proper. I still had
confidence that they did not want to In
jure the whlto man or Interfere with bis
property. Firing was still continued.
About 3 o'clock we received n note froni
tho British consul from tho mission houso
stating that himself and the British com
mander nnd my son wero In the building
and that ho thought thoy would bo safe
until morning. Ot cnurso I know that as
there was nothing but the guard from tho
Porpolso to resist they might bo stormod
by a great force at any moment. As scon
as tho note wiis received I went to tho
United States consulate and Inspected
everything nnd found that nothing hnd
been disturbed. I then returned to the
British consulato and remained until the
first sign of approaching day. I then
started tor the United States consulate and
as I approached In the dim light I could
seo about 1,200 whltccaps, or Mataafa men,
seated In front of our gate and apparently
looking at the consulato. I did not abso
lutely Ilko this and decided that I would
return nnd report to tho guard nt the Brit
ish consulate. At daylight this forco broka
Into squads nnd passed Inland and com
menced looting In conformity with war cus
toms and usages. As soon as they broke I
returned to the consulate. Rain was again
falling and all was dreary. I threw open
all doors and hung tha Stars and Stripes
from the balcony railing and virtually said;
"If you deslro anything of us we are hero.
The Stars and Stripes float 120 fcot abovu
you and If you Interfere with this consulate
you lnterfero with that flag." However,
thcro eeemcd to bo no disposition to In
terfere with us. Near rooming n horso
thnt belonged to a prominent Mallotoa
chief, who was In that army and then n
refugee but which I had under hire from
month to month, was taken from my
grounds and I saw him lariated nearby.
After I opened up I took my halter and
went to get hint. Ho wns JUBt In front of
tho town houso which was filled with the
victorious Mataafa forces.
I bad somo doubts as to the venturo and
as I approached tho horse a Mataafa chief
camo out and snld: "What you want?"
I said: "I come to get my horse." He
bowed very low and said "Wnlelnl" (all
right) and I took tho horso home. The
looting had fairly commenced and thoso
who have not seen such n performance can
not easily understand whnt tho term means.
For forty-eight hours It continued, during
which tlmo everything movable of any pos
sible valuo belonging to tho defeated party
wns carried to the boats which wero landed
In front to recclvo It. At the end of the
looting If there was n horse, colt, a cow, a
calf, a chicken, a duck, a pig or anything of
any possible valuo lett lu Valala, It wns
not to be seen by the naked eye, Even
old poiccs of castings, which seemed to
have no valuo whatever, were removed, but
tbero wob no burning of the houses, There
was one consolation na wo wero at once re
lieved from tho annoyance of pigs which
bad constantly crept through our fences
and too closely Investigated our plants and
shrubs. Tho foregoing may be n mero skel
eton of what occurred for one day without
any reference to causes, or to the conduct
of officers 6r Individuals,
As tho whistle which announces the clos
ing of tho mnllo has Just been sounded, I
close In obedience thereto.
