The Yaterland Calls for Combination

German Arrested at Samoa Wants to

London, April 22. Tho Vienna
correspondent of tho Times,
dwelling upon tho di'plensuroand
jealousy which America's naval
and military prowess, coupled
with her rapproohemeut to Groat
Britain, has produced throughout
Anstria-Hungary, intensifying tho
apprehensions long hold hero to
gardiog her astounding industrial
and commercial progress, quotes
an editorial from the Yaterlnnd,
the Clerical organ, on tbo Snmoan
imbroglio.
Tho Yatorland describes the
Simoan affair as "one of tho most
important subjects to Europo's
etato policy and international
diplomacy that can arise for a
long timo to come." Tho editorial
continues in tho following vein:
"Tbo firat shot Admiral Kautz
fired at Siinoa was initiation of a
policy of aggression against Eu
rope, tho commoncemout of a
policy for naval supremiicy."
Tho Vaterlnnd attributes most
of the difficulties confronting not
only the German races, bnt all
Continental powers to tho "Sby-
lock policy of Great Britain" and
to American commercial competi
tion. It rpgards tho Analo-Ame-
rican combine as superior in naval
and .oconomio strength to either
tho dual or the triple alliance, and
advocates united autiou by all
European powors against it.
lOKRMAN WHO WAS ARRR8TBD.
Borlin, April 22. The Loknl
Anzeigcr today publiebos two tot
ters from Samoa, dated March 23.
One of thorn is from its special
correspondent nt Apia, Herr
VYoluTerKUoruor, and tho other
from Horr Marquardt, a promi
nent German resident of Apia,
who, under Tamasese was milita
ry instructor and later under Ma
taafa and the Provisional Govern
ment was Justice of the Penco un
til ho resigned on tho departuro
of Dr. Ruffel, tbo German Prosi
dent of the Municipal Govern
ment of Apia.
From Herr Marquardt's letter it
appears (lint it was ho and not
Horr Hufnngel, who wan arrested
by Captain Sturdee, commander
of tbo British warship Porpoise,
for bearing arms against tbo
British Bailors.
Ho says ho was taken on board
tho Porpniso where bo claims he
was crossly insulted bv Oantaiii
Sturdeo aud that nfter fourteen
hours' captivity, during which no
proof against him was advanced,
he was transferred to tho Gsrmnn
warship Falke, but with tho con
ditiou that he was not to leave
her. Herr Marqoardt asserts that
bis property was stolon ami des
troyed by Maliotoa TanuV boats
and that millions of other Ger
man property was likewise des
troyed. The writor thon asks who
will pny tho damages.
Herr von Wolfferadorff asserts
(but the British Consul, Mr.
Maxso and Captain Sturdee, aro
both guilty of tbo grossest con
duct in exceeding their treaty
powers. Ho claims they treated
the Germans liko captives
and continued an almost
incessant shelling of Gorman
houses undor various pretexts.
He adds that tbo most intonso in
dignntion provailed among tho 8a
rooan Germans against tbo British
excos'os. Otherwise Horr von
Wolfferedorff's reports agree with
tho German olnoial reports.

Uanila, April 25, 10:30 p. in.
General McArthur's division
fought its way to the Filipino
trenohos beforo Oalumpit today,
advancing four miles, mostly
through woods and jungle and
crossiug tbo Bngaliag rivor. This
was nceoaiplihlied at tbo cost to
tho Araoricana of six killed and
twenty eight wnuudod, the First
South Dakota Itegimont being tho
heaviest loser.
Tho enemy had planned to
wreck our artillery transport trniu.
Tbo attempt was a failure, but a
span of tho iron railway bridgo
over the river was destroyed,
bamporing the Amorican trans
portation for some timo. The
Filipinos cut tho girders, intend
ing to have the structure fall with
tho train, but it collapsed pro
maturely of its own weight.
Tho Begabag river, which is
about 100 yards wido at that point
was splendidly fortified and the
Americans were compelled to ap
proach an open space from which
the rebels had cleared every ob
struction tosi'uht.
Genoral Wheaton's brigado ap
proached tbo river along tbe rail
road, loaving camp beyond Ma
lolos city.
Tho nipid-firo guns on tbo train
"opened the ball" at 11:30 a. m
about a mile from the river.
The Moutana rcgimout aud Utah
batteries at tho same timo entered
the jungle, from which tbe in
surgents pourod heavy volleys.
In the, meantime Company E,
Twentieth Kansas, led by Captain
Beltwood, porformed ono of tho
most brilliant achievements of the
campaign. Tho rogiment was be
ing held in resorve and Oomnanv

of a milo over a corn field t tbe
