SITUATION IN SAMOA IS NEARING NORMAL.
(Special to the “Star.”) AUCKLAND, October 2. It was the general concensus of opinion among the passengers who arrived by the Tofua yesterday afternoon after having been on a three weeks’ tour of the islands that conditions in Samoa were as quiet as they have been for some considerable time. They said that the trouble with the Mau -was evidently dying down and things were fast getting back to normal. Included amongst the passengers were Captain Williams, chief stevedore for the Union Steam Ship Co. at Suva, who has come to New Zealand on furlough ; Colonel Snow, of Christchurch, who is a frequent visitor to the islands during the holiday season; Mr W. Tripe, manager of the Gear Meat Co., Wellington, and Dr Alexander Robertson, also of Wellington.
