A CANARD RE SAMOA.
Berlin, March 8. The Schlesische Zeitung, published at Bresian, has an account of the fight at Samoa, in which it states that the German warship Olga bombarded Mataafa’s camp. The American naval authorities, after vainly protesting against this action, opened fire on the Olga from one of their warships. The Olga thereupon sent out her torpedo boats, which successfully operated against the American warship, thoroughly disabling the vessel and destroying all hands, Washington, March 9.
Mr Bayard. Secretary of State, denies that any conflict has arisen between the Germans and Americans at Samoa.
