ALLEGED PICKETING.
INCIDENTS AT SAMOA
MESSAGE FROM THE ADMINISTRATOR.
(by telegraph—press association.) WELLINGTON, Aug. 5. The Government ha.s received a 10-ng-range wireless message from General Richardson, but it had no reference to the alleged picketing of roads or alleged serious position reported in the message to the Horn. Mr. Nelson. The External Affairs Department regards the message as meaningless and contradictory of the known facts. Tlie two chiefs mentioned are represented as objecting to words that were never included in the address to the. King and their signatures- were the first, an the address. A® to the hand-cutting incident recently reported, the Administrator says that the chiefs themselves insisted on being handcuffed, presumably to prove that they had kept their oath not to voluntarily leave Apia.
