In 1872 the United States ship Narragansett, Commander Richard W. Meade, visited Pago Pago in the island of Tutuila and an agreement was concluded whereby Mauga, high chief of Tutuila, expressed a desire for the friendly protection of the United States, granting in return the exclusive privilege of establishing a naval station in Pago Pago harbour. The agreement was communicated to the United States Govern- ment, but, inasmuch as it was contrary to the foreign policy of that country, no action ...was taken on it. WAR, AND AMERICAN ASSIST ANCE 57 In 1873 the United States Department of State sent one Colonel A. B. Steinberger as a special agent to report upon the group. The report was submitted in the latter part of 1873 and included letters from chiefs praying for the help of the President in their behalf. In 1875 Steinberger was again sent out, in U. S. S. Tuscarora, bearing a communication from the United States Govern- ment and presents for the chiefs. His official relations with the United States became discon- tinued when the letter and presents were delivered.
