Mr. Adee to Mr. Herbert.

Department of State,
Washington, October 7, 1892.

My Dear Mr. Herbert: I thank you for your kind note of the 5th instant, transmitting for my confidential information a copy of a dispatch from Her Majesty’s consul in Samoa respecting the financial administration of the Samoan Government. It strengthens my opinion with respect to the advisability of accepting the resignation of Baron von Pilsach, and I have written the German chargé that I am disposed to believe that it is best for the three powers to accede to the baron’s request to be relieved.

I am, etc.,

Alvey A. Adee.
